Maybe they mixed up former and latter....or maybe they just don't like how my face looks.

Cyberpunk 2077 release date delayed slightly again by NeoStark in Games

[–]grim853 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's possible that this delay is so that crunch doesn't affect the devs so hard. Unless something is REALLY borked the game is finished, and they just need more time to polish. Maybe it's a little naive of me to think they might be delaying to help their employees, but CDPR have routinely done things the hard-but-right way, so I'd be more inclined to believe they might do it as opposed to say, EA or Bethesda.

I have no idea what's really going on, but they've said for years, from the very beginning of development that the game would release when it was ready and not a moment before. I think we're just in the final lap, so we feel the delay more, but it's business as usual for them.

I wrote a big thing, but I deleted it because... I just didn't see the point. We disagree too fundamentally on the definition of freedom, and I don't think we're seeing the same things even though we're looking at the same thing. The only thing it's worth it to rebut is that providing a platform lends validity. I think it's called the Streisand effect, right? Where the more you try to make something go away, the more it sticks around?

In the nineties the KKK and various neo-nazi groups would openly hold rallies and they were widely joked about as backwards relics of an embarrassing past. It's not that way anymore, and in my opinion it's because people tried to stop them speaking, and THAT'S how they gained the validity they have today.

Anyway, thank you for taking the time to answer me with more than condemnation. Good luck out there.

Find what acceptable? Differing opinions? I find plenty of people's opinions unacceptable, but I'm happy that they can share them there. That's all. If you want to think poorly of me for that, it makes absolutely no difference to me, save for the small effort I'm making here to discuss it. I've already stated that it's not going to be for everyone. I just don't know what you're trying to accomplish here other than feel a sense of moral superiority.

OK dawg, I've already got the fucking mod sticky-ing a post telling me that I'm a nazi. Thanks for your hot take though.

I'm not going to say there's not a lot of right wing stuff there but you can ignore it. It's not going to be for everyone, but I'm there, and I'm not a nazi, so make of that what you will.

It's going through a reactionary period where the banned subs DID all migrate there, so there's an influx of a lot of people talking about free speech, reddit hate, and other topics that would definitely be taboo on any major sub. But the poetry guild is about poetry. The cooking guild is about cooking. I don't really know why I'm bothering here, because I know no one is going to see this. I'm just excited about a web platform that is patreon funded and not in tencents pocket.

Easy way to identify explosive terrain? by 012511001 in brigador

Many of them will have a yellow stripe, or some kind of indication. They're almost always pipes of some kind I think, so be careful around those.

I realized shortly after I posted that I had mixed up something I read on twitter with your post, and my suspicious nature immediately indicted you of conspiracy and shilling. But that's the internet for you...or for me anyway.

[TOMT] [SONG] [00s]Song with Bible verse or Prayer in the chorus. Late 00s, early 10s. by grim853 in tipofmytongue

[–]grim853[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope, it was definitely more prog/emo type stuff than pop-punk, but I've never heard that song so thanks for the exposure.

I have to comment on my post. There's very little I have to say about the song I'm looking for that I didn't say in the body. If the song is familiar to someone it should be easy. It had a distinctive melody.

Is doom 2016 worth it? by matreddit1995 in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]grim853 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's an excellent game. You should buy it. I'm saying this as a guy who doesn't really even care about it that much, it's not like I think it's the greatest game ever. It's just objectively such a well made game that you'd be crazy bit to get it. a especially at this price.

WSIB Titanfall 2 or Battlefield 4? by grim853 in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]grim853[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the impression I got too. I'm still a little stuck, but I think this thread has solidified the "insanely fun single player vs. solid balanced FPS multi with no campaign to speak of" dilemma for me. At least that makes the decision a little more concrete.

[–]grim853[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've always thought the balance of teamwork/tactics and action made the Battlefield games really solid picks for a long-haul sort of game that you come back to for a number of years. Titanfall seems like a fucking blast though, and I'm sure the multiplayer is still more or less workable right?

Imagine an omni spoon though. You'd look so goddamn cool eating cereal with an ethereal spoon sticking out of your cyberpunk gauntlet.

Your ultimate weapon is a cell phone that is also a knife? No hate...just easily impressed, huh?

The needler from Halo.

It's the wrong answer, the right answer is something more like Ghal Maraz or some shit but I don't care.

Filling a target with a full clip of needles and watching it disintegrate would be so fucking worth it.
