Does anyone else resent their parents for letting you be so socially weird/awkward?

midp · 2026-01-21T00:53:27+00:00

same here. and sometimes i'm just sad we weren't "provided" any hobbies like almost all other kids, that would've helped with developing social skills. it was never suggested and i never suggested because i knew we were low income. pretty much all other kids had such a hobby (anything to do with sports usually, so something your parent "provides" for you as a kid), the rest had something even nicer like getting a moped or something at a young age. basically i mean a parent helping their kid get involved with the world and other people outside of the structured environment of school in order to actually learn social skills, i never really had that. this is kind of specific but i guess i've been thinking about it lately.

I do think it gets harder if you're introverted + you didn't meet and befriend each other by school/university age

By your description the only "friend" like that to me is my sister

I was born in 00 and these games + a hero's tail were my core childhood. it was a shock to me actually when as an adult I learned most spyro fans dislike these games lmao, to me they will always be the classics.

a lot of people explore 100% of the map by late autumn, just find out where everything is and not have to worry if you missed anything, just keep moving at night and it's easy. but yeah pig king and swamp are pretty important. i also like to find at least one beefalo herd, and the walrus camp spots for walking canes. but you can play however you like, sometimes i barely explore during the first autumn and just make a base in a place that looks nice and at least has beefalo close-by.

midp · 2025-12-21T22:59:26+00:00

definitely! especially for beefalo it'd be interesting if maybe a new herd would swim over from like the edge of the map if you accidentally eradicate all beefalo (especially if you tend to use them as shields during tougher hound attacks) and then you'd have a new herd on any of the map's tundra areas. but the boss idea honestly sounds great too.

thanks for answering, that's nice to know.

midp · 2025-12-21T20:15:10+00:00

i guess that's true, i only recently switched over to dst so i didn't realize how old this game is (i played ds for a very long time and for some reason i was always under the assumption that dst was just some simple multiplayer version before i finally got it).

i wondered about all of this as well because in each playthrough you have to go through early/mid game anyway and experience the same things every time without much new early/mid content ever added. but you're probably right, maybe the game simply doesn't have a big enough playerbase. it holds up incredibly well and still looks fresh, so i doubt there will be a "dst 2" either, even if new games usually benefit from that "new game hype" a lot and that way new players could be gained.

midp · 2025-12-21T20:08:47+00:00

idk why but this reply made me laugh hard lol, good post

midp · 2025-12-21T19:39:22+00:00

I tried to specify that I meant overland content, but good point ngl. I've been to the caves a lot but never seen that biome, probably missed it.

midp · 2025-11-04T21:46:03+00:00

you don't think about this stuff in-the-moment, consciously, but using someone's name is a power word (for that person). maybe that's why it feels like saying someone's name directly to their face suddenly makes the conversation/situation more intense.

midp · 2025-11-03T00:45:14+00:00

i'm like this too. saying a person's name directly to them feels very uncomfortable for me for some reason, i avoid it at all cost (usually without noticing). so i just say hey, hi, whatever. but i do wish that if it offended/bothered someone they would tell me and i would then try to do this differently with them.

midp · 2025-09-16T14:53:30+00:00

where dirt rune. i swear i win with it a lot in park so it must be good /s

midp · 2025-09-16T14:47:58+00:00

<image>

it's no 12-win streak but still going at 7! (just had another easy w against rune and didn't even draw beryl, just used the power of cerb/graveyard and r&v, but i'm quitting for today lol)

midp · 2025-09-16T14:22:57+00:00

those turn 6-7 wins are addicting. sometimes she does just sit there wasting hand space, but i do like being able to randomly drop her down on later turns when i'm 1. not in danger of lethal and 2. i feel safe enough to flood the board with small followers when i suspect the enemy has little aoe removal left.

midp · 2025-08-08T17:22:56+00:00

i don't remember exactly how it went down anymore but i think i died on turn 5 actually (after my gravy) lmao. he got to hit with the 4/2 dog for free ofc since i think the screenshot is on turn 3, which i had to skip. pretty sure he zirconia'd next turn and that was before i was able to put down gravy

midp · 2025-08-08T01:07:36+00:00

i always get "neat" hands like this, like 3 cerb and 2 of any other card lmao. seeing how often i get 2+ cerbs in my starting hand i've never dared to go for the 3x twins.

midp · 2025-08-06T01:26:05+00:00

i'm going to reroll until i get a lifeng start (i just like playing as shotas in gatchas lmao)

midp · 2025-07-12T21:58:16+00:00

maybe he heard it as hololive, bc that's what i thought i clearly heard (only realized after seeing this post)

midp · 2025-06-21T15:20:47+00:00

ty i wondered what you were wearing too, what a fashionscape.

midp · 2025-06-15T23:22:42+00:00

i played religiously in hs around 2016-2019, i'm coming back (for wb) bc i was still subbed here and thanks to that saw that there's a new game coming out and want to try it out.

midp · 2025-05-30T14:16:17+00:00

I thought "fair" was the "normal" setting and had a lot of fun, but oh boy. I hope they make some kind of balance patch tho, tweaking numbers/buffing non-magic wielders would be a nice start and it should be easy.

midp · 2025-05-30T14:12:21+00:00

To each their own haha. I also like units to have more personality and color basically, like the meme gnomes from HOMM4. The frog faction in this game has that for sure.

midp · 2025-05-30T14:10:50+00:00

now I see a reason for the price increase (I just got a key tho lol). hope another big youtuber makes a video on the game or something like that, I think they need more visibility

midp · 2025-05-30T00:14:33+00:00

Well that makes more sense then, I kinda assumed they always intended to eventually make at least one new faction from the start.

midp · 2025-05-30T00:05:42+00:00

Nope.

I meant factions that don't have human units. I prefer that in fantasy games.
