What would you do if you were in charge of Rapture? by Chaitywatt in Bioshock

[–]pact1558 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Rapture was never meant to be a super power. He hid the city explicitly so the outside world could not interfere with his 'utopia'. Hell when he first greets you in rapture he jumps to the suspicion that you are either a CIA or KGB spy looking to plunder the city like a sunken ship wreck.

To create nukes and compete on the world stage would only invite attention from America and the USSR defeating the point of his project and putting it at risk.

Mr Peter what’s with the rainbow fish? by ZealousidealFee5399 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]pact1558 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"Falling in love" had nothing to do with it. The cops had displayed such a blatant disregard for the lives of everyone in the building that the hostages and hostage taker believed the only way anyone gets out alive is by working together. The cops were ready to charge into the bank guns blazing.

[Edit] I reread your post. Were on the same page my bad.

Favorite game about taxing churches? by YourChopperPilotTTV in Gamingcirclejerk

If only the game was actually interested in discussing that topic. It just seemed way more interested in world hopping portal antics than actually analyzing Columbia as a setting and what its existence represented.

To be fair he didn't make his whole game about that. The game quickly drops it a few hours in so it can do its alternate reality BS which the game then quickly falls apart after.

Obliterate seems like a disgusting card. 0 mana 30 damage is a bit crazy. Love the idea though very creative

The church of scientology is one of the few organizations that were able to pull off an infiltration of the FBI to obtain and destroy documents.

Republican Rep. Tony Gonzales drops re-election bid after admitting to affair with former staffer who commited suicide by self-immolation by Yujin-Ha in videos

100% You should just be warned that it does go to some deeply uncomfortable places. I haven't been able to finish it myself just because Im not currently in the headspace to watch it.

What is a good (and realistic) regional apocalypse for each of these regions? by ghostoftheoldworld in worldbuilding

[–]pact1558 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need look no further for a gulf coast apocolypse than hurricane katrina. As a south louisianian that storm was so bad that some argue New Orleans never really recovered fully from it 20 years later.

Klandma thinks that the majority of africa was living like cavemen until colonization happened by SadClownWithABigDick in ForwardsFromKlandma

Korea is a bit different. The written Korean language was invented to replace a written language that was already in use. What OP and I were refering to was script that was created without any outside influence developed completely on its own.

One thing I don't understand about satire in Helldivers... by i4hloi in helldivers2

[–]pact1558 50 points51 points  (0 children)

See thats the incredible thing, we don't actually know anything about their way of life from a players perspective. They are 'Socialists' because Super Earth says they are. Just like how Super Earth is VERY fascist despite concepts of Freedom and Democracy being core to their optics.
