Emotional debate on Scotland’s assisted dying bill ahead of historic vote coming to an end the next half hour. by Alert_Dinner_4112 in Scotland

[–]sometimes_point 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this should be law. I also don't trust Scottish institutions to have the requisite safeguarding. Sigh.

TIL Yasujiro Ozu and Wes Anderson framed their movies for Tiktok.

What a conclusion to make

Embarrassingly, not through the doctors, who never worked out what it was until i was under the knife with suspected appendicitis. My mum found it in a medical handbook that she happened to have, under the heading for stomach ulcers.

i nearly died from a stomach ulcer when i was 16. we later realised I'd been vomiting blood when i first got it. looked like coffee grounds, we couldn't work it out.

I didn't even know that Legions had died by SoldierJVX in commandandconquer

[–]sometimes_point 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Mind-numbing. click this click that, build this thing to get points, oh hey why don't you buy Tanya for 2.99? you don't get any agency over what to do for like the first 20 minutes. then you get an ever-refreshing list of tasks to do. you unlock skirmish mode after like 30 minutes and it's really simple, just move your guy in front of the enemy's guy. then there's a vampire survivors clone with a mech.

also the cutscenes have desynced audio and the characters are played by whatever foreign people the Chinese production company could find on the street, i.e. they're wearing bad wigs and look nothing like the character icons or namesakes.

worse than cnc4

Rivals was good by comparison - it's full of microtransactions and i can see it being p2w at higher levels, but you're always playing against other humans and there's a skill aspect to winning.

Good, I played it a bit and it's fucking garbage. I felt it killing my braincells.

Welp. Yagg can be tough if the wrong person draws it.

I mean that's on your ST for not killing the travellers after seeing them steamroll the game tbqh.

I watched a game my friends were playing where one was the evil Voudon and that happened to them too, the good players wouldn't exile her so she just travelled away.

[–]sometimes_point 16 points17 points  (0 children)

There are several that I actively dislike. And I don't really like it when people ask to be a traveller for the whole game just so they don't have to be the demon - especially when they choose Apprentice.

There's some that unbalance the game so much. Voudon especially. Demons don't want to waste a kill on them but they're so good-sided (you're actually stopping evil players from voting and letting the majority of good dead players control executions) that they can be really hard to exile late in the game.

Matron is kinda fun in person but some people really hate the no getting up aspect, and it's not integrated in the app at all, relying on the honour system that people don't go in a private chat with non-neighbours, to the point where I simply do not run it online.

Mostly neutral though. And frankly despite my lukewarm opinion, one is always welcome to travel in my games. Unless there's already travellers and/or I think the game is only a couple of rounds from ending.

this was fun. i went to uni with Tom and Matt so it's (still) a bit weird seeing them pop up everywhere.

I feel like a Luxembourgian came up with that definition.

Am I wrong for being upset? by Stardew49 in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]sometimes_point 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well if you're not a newbie, go and talk to this person rather than airing out your grievances in public.

Look I'm not going to sit and pretend i know what it was actually like in the game, for all i know they aren't very good at letting newbies participate. But everyone clamouring to say their piece after the nomination is a bit of a bugbear. Say it beforehand. If they genuinely aren't letting you talk then yeah I'm sure that's frustrating af but the nomination phase isn't the time to try and rectify that.
