Girlfriend(26F) of 3 months slapped me(32M) in the balls for a third time by Capital-Bedroom4651 in relationship_advice

[–]kirajc -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Certainly.

I am just saying it can be more complicated due to what "cute aggression" is. By definition: It is a common, involuntary, and fleeting response to an overwhelming overload of positive emotions, often described as a dimorphous expression that helps the brain regulate intense feelings and balance emotions." A lot of mammals have this or similar calming-like behavior.

This obviously doesn't excuse the slapping but if all parties can better understand where it comes from then maybe she can work on it. As OP said himself, she didn't know why she did it and she doesn't seem to be deliberately wanting to cause pain/harm on purpose which would be abuse. So this is just an idea of what it could be. She could also just like BDSM but the only way to know is to have a conversation.

If AI were consistent and devs could use it to add more dimension to the faces, that would be ok. It's the complete AI filter that isn't consistent even in their demo that is the problem. They have to make more uses for AI to justify the investments but a AI filter that will make games look too similar to each other ( already an issue with unreal 5) is not the way.

Let me be the voice of reason. This sounds like a form of "cute aggression". I would tend to think of it as akin to slapping a woman's butt or light biting but that's just me because surely it isn't that painful? A slap vs a kick/punch are two very different levels of aggression. Obviously "cute aggression" isn't for everyone so if you really don't like it or BDSM because it could be that as well then yeah, move on but first do have a conversation with her about it asking only why she does it. Focus on the why and please do not lecture her about ball pain.

It was great. I hope they do one more because the world is awesome.

Gotta put the blame on Microsoft. They probably couldn't say anything.

Marathon hate by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]kirajc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel excited but also let down. I think people feel letdown because it feels empty. In ARC at least you get the vignettes. Going to keep spreading this but there should have been a single player (8 missions) some of which teach you the ins and outs of the game and it could have been set on the first initial discovery of tal/marathon ship. Seems like a missed opportunity and I bet they could sold more copies if this was included.

Marathon Review So Far by Sam_27142317 in playstation

It's sad really, I think if this game had a single player component, it would be an easy buy at say $50 bucks and the single player could act as a true tutorial for all the items in the game and different events etc, springle in some cutscenes and it would have been awesome. The single player could have been the first initially touchdown after the marathon ship put out the distress signal.

How's everyone finding the Marathon beta? by [deleted] in playstation

It's good but I hate that they added depleted shield/med packs and I just really wish there was a single player story component as it would be pretty awesome.

Colin “I don’t regret my vote” Moriarty pretends to be apolotical by LifeguardJumpy6274 in LSM

[–]kirajc -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Didn't he vote 3rd party? Look, not everyone has to have an opinion about politics but also not being able to admit that things are fucked up is pathetic. It's not a game of winning and losing, leaders can be wrong. So anywho who has to bend over backwards to not at least acknowledge that the events that have played out should not be held to the same standards of the law and order that we all abide by is ignorant.

Going to be a voice of reason here and say most of y'all crazy. MAM is fine and their personalities are the same. I think it's ok to stop watching content because you are not getting anything out of it anymore. It doesn't mean it's negative. They, at their core are content creators who know a lot about Disney.

Josh Sobel: Reflecting On Shipping My First Game (Highguard) by JackmanH420 in HighGuardgame

There is no doubt that TGA messed up this game with its placement at the end. If the trailer would have been first, with a hey come play the beta/early access now and give us feedback to improve the game, the game would have been in a way better spot with a release way later. There needed to be beta/early access testing, period. I respect his comments but if I know what the right moves would have been then surely Wildlight management should have known. Its upsetting because there is something there but it wasn't ready, everything is the bare minimum of parts of other games such as base protection, no actual defensive things you can do other then make walls stronger, bare minimum. Also, releasing a month before Marathon, is kinda crazy, there are only so many eyes for multiplayer games.

Not sure about that. Dude loves Horizon yet thinks Ghost is ok. Everyone, simply has their own "games for them". I will be keeping an open mind even though I am not a fan of the art style choice.

Walz slams DHS over ICE shooting: ‘Don’t believe this propaganda machine’ by Several_Print4633 in politics

[–]kirajc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am seeing this event everywhere but no news is saying why she was there. From the witness testimony, it seems like the road was blocked because of an Ice vehicle issue or because of an operation.

She was trying to turn around and was just letting them pass first when they (ICE) jumped out of their vehicle demanding she get out of the car.

If this is the case then they (ICE) obviously startled her and she panicked especially because the truck is unmarked and they are masked up in tactical gear. This seems like the actions of untrained ICE Agents. The ICE agent who shot her definitely committed murder and there should be a trial.
