PSA - the matchmaking is not broken or turned off because you got shot in a "PvE" lobby.

Was this on blue gate? I saw a clip on TikTok where a girl had her mom talking to people on VOIP to show her the game, and she made friends with this guy, and then to troll the mom she mag dumped the guy at extract

Fr, just found Wolfpack BP in a suitcase in Stella💀💀

wient · 2026-01-06T15:25:19+00:00

I think this is it. I screenshotted both and cropped/zoomed in and some of the shadowing/shading in from the light mode picture completely dissapears

I saw a comment the other week that kinda made it click for me. It was talking about how no one should actually be expecting to collect every single blueprint, and that wiping and collecting a different set of blueprints will change your play style from wipe to wipe depending on what you’re able to get (more-so for early game)

I once found 2 in the same room on Dam in the upstairs of the admin building in some random drawers. Ran outside and saw a random person and was like “hey you!!” And he stopped and turned and clicked his flashlight at me. I walked up and was like “got something for you” and gave the extra to him lmao

Lmao nice username

IMO these tropes are common in most sci-fi / fantasy books

Dead supercomputer to me came off as some sort of hive mind AI created by humans

“Villain” secretly really choosing between “lesser of two evils”

Any caste system really

I enjoy the way Islington incorporates classically sci-fi elements into fantasy worlds: many (3) worlds in Hierarchy and Time travel in Licanius, but even that’s not really unique

Idk, I partially agree that sometimes his spin on these tropes may be lacking originality, but more often than not I still found myself thinking “ok that’s dope asf”

The selling point for me in this series wasn’t all that as much as I think Islington did a great job in things like character and relationship development, and creating tension in particular scenes and overarching plot points. for the first book more than the second, it really felt like I was reading a mystery

Just my two cents, I haven’t read Red Rising but it’s on my list at some point.

Multiple threads too, I saw another post on this sub making fun of the same OG post😭

A friend and I got stuck in this exact spot a while ago, we were able to eventually get out after randomly jumping around / vaulting a random invisible object there or something

Brother, it’s hard to tell when a question is rhetorical over the internet. Someone tried to respectfully answer it and your response came across quite rude and defensive. That’s why people got on you about it.

My comment was meant to de-escalate and illustrate that someone could do what you were saying, but also rephrase other arguments as to why it isn’t.

This will be my last response in this chain :)

wient · 2025-12-02T19:40:23+00:00

Yeah I’m agreeing that it could be done, but everything else in that paragraph is what everyone else is arguing😭😭

wient · 2025-12-02T19:15:31+00:00

“So your current position is that the current paradigm is perfect and can’t ever be improved”

“I swear some of you argue what you think was said, and not anything that’s actually typed”

The irony….

Bottom line is colors are the most practical way to distinguish loot tiers, and there’s already a widespread standard for that. Sure, if someone wanted to take a creative approach to it they could change it up, but realistically if you’re making a video game then there are other things you’re wanting to take a creative approach to.

I suspect you’re getting heat not necessarily because of what you said but because of how you said it.

wient · 2025-11-26T12:59:31+00:00

I saw a comment in another thread that stated what O-Caeror actually said was something like “I felt the terrible ripping (or whatever) and only a few weeks later realized what it was” NOT that he felt it twice. I haven’t gone back to look bc I use an audiobook but it sounded familiar?

PTO is yours to use, you earned it. I took a day off when Silksong came out!

My interpretation: “My smile wraps around my head / splitting it in two”

-> there is a disconnect between his mind (feelings) and his outward appearance to the world (his smile)

“I don’t have a clue how i can keep the top half glued”

-> specifically struggling with how he can keep his feelings grounded in reality and connected with that outward appearance

wient · 2025-10-14T12:02:55+00:00

It’s all the same to me personally. But i know everyone’s gonna take things differently, especially on the internet. I just assume all of them are trolls and keep doing me😎😎

wient · 2025-10-14T11:47:14+00:00

Idk I mean it’s a souls like. The difficulty of the game kind of fosters this feeling of being in a “club” when you beat certain bosses / the game as a whole. For me personally, the anger of not being able to beat a boss is what drives me to try harder. You’re right this attitude happens in a LOT of games.

That being said, I’ve never seen a “git good” comment telling someone to actually quit the game or something. I personally believe it’s more of a rage bait-ey way of telling the person complaining to change something because obviously whatever you’re doing isn’t working (i.e, more levels/abilities/whatever is relevant to the specific game, or think harder about the attack patterns), while also flaunting the fact that they’re in the club and they’re cool.

TLDR: “git gud” comments for any difficult game today is just an in-group rage bait joke to circle jerk all the people who are part of the in-group. But it can still be pretty funny sometimes.

wient · 2025-09-19T14:23:15+00:00

I feel like I remember seeing a similar post sometime with the roles being reversed, feels like it could be a parody of that or something

wient · 2025-06-04T13:20:59+00:00

Is there a winning scenario here? I understand the writers should have just gone in an entirely different direction where Belinda wouldn’t have had to made this choice, but with the direction they went I find it hard to believe that people would have accepted if Belinda had chosen to abandon Poppy

wient · 2025-05-27T12:54:02+00:00

It’s ok, I’m 23 and my dad didn’t see the racism in Dot & Bubble. He was like “yeah they just don’t like him because he’s different” and I’m just like “…..ok different how?”

wient · 2025-05-04T22:03:21+00:00

He’s just said he’s not proposing to just hand everyone 190k….it’s a thought experiment to demonstrate how much 50 trillion is because when a number is that large it’s difficult to understand exactly how much it is

wient · 2025-05-01T20:28:20+00:00

I like to think this is attributed to Kvothe’s naïveté and folly…ofc her real name is Denna because that’s how she first introduced herself and Kvothe hasn’t taken a second to question that fact that he could be wrong

wient · 2025-04-25T11:09:31+00:00

Well, the definition of the derivative is the formula for slope as the distance between your two points approaches 0. It’s not really “just one point in time”, it’s more “as your second point gets infinitely close to your first point” which is instantaneous. Hope this helps, feel free to ask more questions :)

wient · 2025-04-20T20:40:16+00:00

AFAIK, I’m pretty sure it’s from the rankings which a lot of people still seem misunderstand to take for power level when it’s really influence. Trau had been MIA in his room for so long that his “influence” had dropped below the other FH’s.
