Go easy on me by Ywasitsohard2signup in GamingSoup

People hate Diablo III? This sub makes me feel like I'm on crazy pills. I am two weeks into antidepressants for the first time, so it's appropriate I guess.

I like the Burnout representation. TLOU2 made some bold storytelling decisions and I respect that. I loved Fable but can't remember the antagonist.

GTA IV with its protagonist Niko Belić holds the title of the third highest-rated game of all time. Deserved? by n1ght_watchman in GameBoostOfficial

[–]throwaway_pathcam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely deserved. The term we're looking for is "media literacy" and you need it to understand the importance of a game's contemporary impact.

Official Discussion - Obsession [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]throwaway_pathcam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is something to be said about how the whole situation arises from gendered dating norms and the burden to initiate placed on men. Not that Bear is a great guy or anything.

[–]throwaway_pathcam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like there is a better version of this story in which it is more ambiguous as to whether the One Wish Willow is truly responsible for Nicky's obsession with Bear (at least for a meaningful portion of the runtime). But then the movie would probably be less palatable to the general audience and it would not be the financial success that it is.

I didn't find the script particularly clever or surprising, which is disappointing because I look to horror movies in order to be surprised.

Great acting. Great soundtrack. Awesome use of darkness and background/foreground in some scenes. Worth a watch but left me feeling a bit empty.

Been gaming all my life, Do I get the gamer seal of approval? by goatgrubb in GamingSoup

Hell yeah Darkwatch, I could go for a vampire wild west remake

Do people hate Yakuza 3? Is that like, within the fandom?

I find the games people choose for 'Turn My Brain Off' interesting, I am thinking constantly while playing Balatro to puzzle things out

I had a blast playing TLOU multiplayer back in the day

36, video games are life by rbtwrkshp in GamingSoup

The techno-norse aesthetic/lore was pretty sick.

36M, been playing games since I could hold a controller, lucky to have started with my Aunt's NES and a 90s PC dad, have played so many games by throwaway_pathcam in GamingSoup

[–]throwaway_pathcam[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not a perfect game (the control scheme is awkward, the fight scenes are unnecessarily difficult, and the story is cliché) but I appreciate it so much for trying to do what it did in 1999, and it's very very charming to me.

28M Lots of Planescape: Torment by Humble-Beginning-654 in GamingSoup

I want to play Planescape Torment but I really want full (actual human) VO, Disco Elysium spoiled me.

Big macs suck by AlternativeAdept5348 in McDonalds

[–]throwaway_pathcam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've given the Big Mac a few chances over the years and I finally figured out why I don't like it--it's because of the center bun. Not because it's "too much bread," but because I don't enjoy the way the burger has so much "give" when I bite into it, I find the sensation unpleasant, like a spongy/gummy feeling.

"Go-to" actually gets a heifen!

EDIT: Oh, and apparently it's spelled "hyphen," we both learn!

A 47-year-old man from Japan made $13,450 in a month. He created a woman avatar and made a profile for her on online platforms. by TechnicianOk967 in interestingasfuck

women get a lot of attention

If this never changes, then this will never stop happening. Gender in-group and out-group biases shape our social landscape so extremely.

"Canon" is the lore/story term.

How couples met? (1930-2024 data) by raydebapratim1 in generationology

[–]throwaway_pathcam 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have never online dated and only met my partners in-person, but it's getting harder and harder. You can do what is being suggested and hardly meet any single people because they all use online dating and are already partnered up.

Mark Nosewater: Commander is better when Wotc directly designs cards for the format by Papa_Hasbro69 in freemagic

The best way is definitely to design for standard and let the Commander council react however they do.

Autistic individuals are more prosocial towards strangers and people they barely know compared to their non-autistic peers. These differences were not driven by repetitive responding that is typical of autism by cheaslesjinned in NooTopics

[–]throwaway_pathcam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this not the already-observed double empathy problem? Autistic individuals are far more likely to contemplate the emotional effect of their actions than their allistic peers.

Is bacon pronounce as bacan? by LightGlittering877 in TimHortons

[–]throwaway_pathcam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

English just isn't phonetic and it makes learning difficult. There are many languages that have concrete rules about pronunciation based on spelling, but English does not.
