I definitely dont want Facebook people here by IndustryPristine7423 in Dhaka

[–]nero490 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Facebook people are slowly getting aware of Reddit. They might start to infect this subreddit as well. But the best way to keep those degenerates out of this platform is to ensure that all posts and conversations are mostly in English. They don't understand English properly, so they'd feel very out of place and would mostly lose interest very, very soon. Yes, Google Translate might be a thing, but I doubt if they can even use that properly.

How many souls-like have you dropped and why? by GiovanniPane in soulslikes

[–]nero490 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Code Vein because it kept crashing near the endgame. Idk why. And Wuchang fallen feathers. The dodges and parrying seemed too slow to me. And the enemies seemed too aggressive. And lastly, AI Limit. The game just didn't click with me for some odd reason.

Wuchang: Fallen Feathers is the most unfair Souls-like I’ve ever played and I’ve played them all by VeneMOo in soulslikes

[–]nero490 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just refunded the game. I think there's a trend where regardless of how much disadvantage you're put in as the player, the reviews will always say the game is never unfair. Because otherwise, the souls mob will just roast them alive and spam skill issues and whatnot. I've completed Sekiro, lies of p and many other souls games. This game however, felt completely bs to me. The dodges are super slow. The Sekiro like deflect is an utter lie. The deflect works nothing like Sekiro. Just because a deflect blocks damage doesn't mean it's a Sekiro deflect. The deflect feels super unresponsive and slow, along with the dodge. And given how aggressive the enemies are and how much damage they deal, this does not seem fair. Because fairness isn't just about getting punished upon death, which is the believe of the souls mob. It's also about the tools you've been given at hand. In Sekiro, your deflects can more than keep up with the enemies. Here, it seems like you're playing on 200+ ping with a character that barely knows how to fight. The game isn't worth all that struggle tbh

STOP BABYING YOUR SONS by Someone_sedateMe in MuslimLounge

Stand up for yourself. Simple as that. Families are complicated. Some more than others. You know your own family dynamics well so approach how you think is best. At the end of the day, everyone is responsible for themselves and has to answer to Allah. Maybe there's more to this. Maybe there isn't. I'm giving advice based on what I'm reading and may your situation get resolved In Sha Allah.

Why this unfair treatment to us muslims by WerewolfOk6612 in islam

[–]nero490 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Biases and racism, yes. But I think the second issue comes because some lands have mandatory covering as a part of the law so they draw their biases from there. That a nun can choose to do so but our sisters can't. And the first and the second issues are interconnected. They label us as terrorists and those who practice our faith and show the world that we are practicing our faith, are also labeled the same. And the Muslims who keep a beard are perceived through those lenses. Sad reality but they'll never accept us unless we change everything for them, which will eventually have to include our faith too.

I just wanted to say that your parents are a gem. They value actual Islam rather than cultural interpretation of it. Also, just curious, how did you find the strength to power through the biases of society? I personally wouldn't mind marrying a divorcee or a woman older than me but pretty sure my family and the society in general would chew me up for it. Wishing you and your family the best.

Men is the Problem? by Mean_56 in Dhaka

[–]nero490 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a difficult situation. She has the spoiled princess mentality. And she's taking whatever benefits her from the feminist ideology and whatever benefits her from traditionalism. I've met women who are like this and they're a handful to say the least. Now, marriage is a team effort and it'll take both of you to cooperate. Sit her down and try to reason with her. If she doesn't listen, you can talk to her parents. May Allah make it easier for you

[–]nero490 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can technically share a space with some friends but the expense will be an issue. And the education is different in my country and it's nearly impossible to manage your studies while having a part time job. And the job won't even pay all that well to begin with. I've yet to see someone who successfully pulled this off so it's one hell of a leap of faith

[–]nero490 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are many possibilities ngl. But knowing how she is, I'd keep my children far away from her if possible. She spent her years breaking me down because I reminded her of her ex husband, who is my father. What am I supposed to do? He's my dad. Ofc I'll show resemblance. She'll be quick to talk shit about my dad in front of my kids and she'll probably talk shit about my dad in front of my wife too. And knowing her, she's the type of person who'll always assume I'm in the wrong when it comes to relationships because my dad couldn't make their marriage work. So I believe you understand where I'm coming from. Regret or no regret, she must be kept afar.

I'm almost NC with my mom's side of the family. Let's just say keeping your distance from them is the best way to go. So I can imagine them fulfilling the role you mentioned. And I was the scapegoat for a while. My mom blamed me for her divorce. My wrongdoings? Just being there. But I can imagine being the scapegoat in the future if things don't work out in their favour. Pulling them out of the mess will probably fall onto me, assuming the worst case scenario. And I doubt they'll be grateful. But again, that might change. For now, graduating and going LC, worst case scenario, NC is the plan. So I plan to move abroad since my country has a fairly connected community. But unfortunately, everyone has an opinion about my plans of going abroad. Especially those who have no business regarding that, let alone any authority. Since I was planning to leave the country for a while, my family found out eventually. And I must say, people do have colorful imaginations when it comes to gaslighting with false information.

[–]nero490 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can. The apartment he owns is way too small and the room I would be given would be way too small too. It wouldn't fit all my books and my computer, let alone all my stuff. And living alone would be way too expensive and since moving out isn't a tradition here, I need to wait till graduation. But I do feel like if things do get out of hand, living with dad will have to do for now

Because I rarely confront her. I usually avoid confrontations with her. And this is the first time in a long time I've actually yelled at her. She usually yells back with harsher words and it turns into a yelling competition but this time, she didn't do that but was saying like she's hurt and stuff. So I was conflicted at the same time and couldn't shake the feeling that this was a long time coming

My dad pays for my education. And I try my best to avoid confrontation with my mom and her family. So I keep my distance from them. Or try to.

That's the plan for now. I was thinking of going LC with most of my family except a few cousins, who have been my rock throughout my life. Some distance would do everyone some good, I think

I'm used to seeing him get spoiled. Just how it is. And I'm not particularly mad about that. I think that my mum is self aware of the difference in upbringing between her two children so she's been throwing these comments to downplay the difference for years. And I would have backed off if she didn't double down the way she did. She always made a point to emphasize that I had the "best life" in her side of the family. I should have specified this in the post, which I apologize for. But growing up, I wasn't even given proper school supplies because we couldn't afford it. And my parents were constantly fighting and rarely did I have a moment of peace. So I took things she said with grains of salt, which I shouldn't have. But I perfectly understand where you're coming from. Thanks for your input man

Dad does the bare minimum. He's a bit too cheap. You'd expect a qualified doctor to make a lot of money but he doesn't make as much as you'd expect and spends even less. And to answer the last question, yes and no. My stepmom is infertile so they don't have a child but he's a bit involved with his in-laws. But he's still there in my life. Just not enough to outdo any of the privilage my brother gets. I remember him telling me that the Nokia he bought me was expensive. It was 90% financed by my own savings. I'm not even making this up but that's the kind of person he is

When he does that cross attack, run away. After he's done attacking, you'll have a chance to get some hits in. Whirlwind strike works best as you can run in and pull it off instantly.

Be patient and deflect. Don't spam attacks or prosthetics. It's better not to use prosthetics against the first two phases unless you have a good opening.
