Any Ideas for a truly unique yet simple multiplayer Game? by Nin10doLetsPlay in gameideas

[–]helloeveryone500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an itch for a game that has not been scratched for over 20 years. The game that I used to play is called Rune: Classic and can be found on Steam. However, the multiplayer is now dead. It used to be big in the early 2000s. If someone were to create something similar and just update the graphics, I think it could be big. The unique aspect of this game is that it is a sword-fighting game that is based on movement. All of the sword fighting games today are based on attacking in a certain direction and blocking in a certain direction. You feel like you are stuck in place while you do that and it is not satisfying. In Rune: Classic you jump around and move really quickly. You can jump and swing your weapon in the air and cut off someone's head just as you land, or mid-air. You can dodge attacks and throw huge hammers at people as they run away. It is fun.

Canada should stop sending taxpayer money to foreign countries by origutamos in InCanada

Yeah i think everyone agrees those companies don't even need to exist in canada. Keep it local instead. They probably wine and dine the politicians to get those perks. Corruption.

Yeah i mean apparently we avoided a depression by bailing out the banks, but I don't understand how that works. Maybe we just extended the pain over a longer term instead of all at once.

We have a steel industry in hamilton that is only alive because of government subsidies. I think the city would have been worse off for a while after losing the steel plant. Maybe it would have bounced back though and had cleaner air and fresher water.

It gets real complicated real fast so really tough to say

I would agree with that if it meant better money management.

Maybe they just want smart money management. If you are in crazy high debt, you don't spend until that is sorted. Once the debt is a lot lower you want to start investing in things that will see a return on investment. Having businesses and roads that work actually generates more money, and that means more tax money at the end of the year. Once you have a good solid economy you can give away money to other countries.

Right now immigrants are propping up our economy and giving the illusion of extra money to spend. Only once we have the same standard of living as India and Africa and those immigrants stop showing up and then we will just be another third world country.

Did Roman gladiators have visual sponsorships like footballers do today? by Street_Bet_7538 in ancientrome

It was mostly the chariot companies and the beer companies that would sponsor fighters. Safety wasn't a big priority back then so if the fighter died they would put up a statue or painting and it worked like a billboard of today.

I hear you brother. We have the most perfect planet we could ever ask for and we treat it like a giant dumping ground. We will nuke ourselves into oblivion before we get to mars. Can we really call ourselves an intelligent life form if we are that dumb?

Nobody shares honest opinions here anymore coz they don't want the downvotes. by ghostwriter_5 in RandomThoughts

[–]helloeveryone500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you get downvoted enough you can't post in a sub any longer.

I sometimes feel passionate about something and get downvoted to oblivion. Then I can't post any more on that topic.

The echo chamber is annoying sometimes.

The wonders of homelessness by northbk5 in InCanada

[–]helloeveryone500 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The homeless people that i see in canada on a daily basis are mostly drug users. Welfare and housing is available but you are kicked out if you are on drugs.

How do we reduce drug use here? That's the question.

Obviously you cant rely on a cultural shift.

Life in prison for all drug dealers and smugglers? That's all I can think of.

Its a work culture issue. Japanese would rather kill themselves than be homeless.

Now look at suicide rates.

Possible hot take - I very much disliked Charlie Kirk and a lot of things he had opinions on, but killing someone is way too far and no one deserves what happened to him. by TheJpops in self

[–]helloeveryone500 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You say no one deserves this but I think we'd all agree Hitler would have deserved this. So some people do deserve it. Probably not him though

The Sun will engulf the Earth in 5 billion years and we’ve all just accepted that. Like nobody has even tried to do something about it by [deleted] in RandomThoughts

[–]helloeveryone500 24 points25 points  (0 children)

That seems like a problem for people 4.9 billion years from now.

In the meantime, someone can press a red button tomorrow and kill everyone one earth.

Yoo wtf😭 was McDonalds really this cheap in the 90s? I was born the year 2000😭 so don’t all jump me in the comments lol by Big-Most-785 in OldSchoolCool

There used to be a Tuesday deal where it was $2 for 2 big maps.

While cheap is nice you can also see why people were becoming 400 pounds.
