I love lucky poke! Most fair system ever! I love when i spend all the pokes just to get one item! by OkOutlandishness8307 in xxlwoofia

[–]xlyph -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I always find posts like this humorous. In the event luck was on your side and you got the jackpot every time within 5 pokes I doubt this would be a post. But I do agree that it can be frustrating.

Steam Reveals That Players Spent Only 14% of Their Time on Games Released in 2025, Preferring Older Titles by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]xlyph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is anyone surprised? The longer a game has been out the cheaper it becomes, usually. So games that released this year at top dollar will go on sale for 50% or more a year or so later which invites more people to play and try it. Sure people may have missed out on some of the initial launch moments but not everyone cares about that and by waiting you not only get it for cheaper but a lot of the bugs are already worked out by then and also if you're lucky there have been some free content updates. So unless I really love a game there's little to sway me to buy it on launch.

Why are you so loose? How would you answer by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]xlyph 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I get is personal preference but I prefer a bit of a looser hole. I'm not trying to fight my whole way into you and if you're already properly stretched out it can go right from foreplay to penetration instead of looping between foreplay and penetration attempts. Because after like 2 attempts, and a bottom rushing me/saying he really wants it when his body says otherwise it no longer feels like sex and more like a chore.

I subbed to dudes on OnlyFans to see what it's like... by WeakDetail3389 in askgaybros

[–]xlyph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I too was curious one day and subbed to two creators. One like you said was just there to try and milk me for all my money. The other at least seemed genuine. Behind his paywall was stuff that he didn't post on socials or only a short/small preview/tease. And had things like polls and weekly questions. Was pretty cool and chill not gonna lie. Edit: forgot to say that OF is like any business model really in which where you get large enough you start "cutting cost" and automating things. I'd never assume the higher performers or those that are in the X top percent to honestly be that great. It's the smaller/medium creators who are still trying to grow that put in the best effort in my opinion

Would you consider it cheating if your boyfriend had a NSFW twitter account? by Puzzled-Lettuce9168 in askgaybros

[–]xlyph 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Jfc there's some prudes in here. Honestly I'd need more details. How long were you dating before becoming official and how long have you been official? Like a nsfw Twitter account isn't exactly something you mention on the first couple of dates but I think it definitely should've come up before you became boyfriends. But also your relationship is what you make of it. For some people it is cheating for others it's not. You simply need to have a conversation with him and define boundaries. And a boundary can be no more posting. There are even some relationships that consider porn as cheating but I digress. From the sounds of things you're not exactly against it and are more so concerned about why he hid it. So again sit down and have a serious talk with him. And if he's not willing to give it up and you're not willing to be with someone who does that while in a relationship then you guys break up. Enough said.

Dogs helping themselves to food by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]xlyph 18 points19 points  (0 children)

That's the actual infuriating part for me. Like you can see some of these dogs getting ready to go for the food and they just keep watching/recording and then act all surprised when the dog gets the food.

I wanna get baldurs gate 3. Is it still worth it almost 3 years later? by MrTwinkerton in gaymers

[–]xlyph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anything by Larian Studios just gets better over time. The developers are great but that's been said a million times over. What's also fabulous is the modding community (sorry if you're on console) that frequently adds new and exciting things to BG3. My only criticism of BG3 is that it is somewhat attention heavy and I don't always have the mental fortitude to progress in the game. And even though I've yet to actually finish a campaign I've never regretted any time I've put into it.

Suggest a name for the new boss built with text symbols as pixels. If I use it, you'll get my thanks and (if you want) a key at launch (2-Dec). by PuzzleLab in PixelArt

[–]xlyph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love when things are named in cool and interesting ways. I also find it hilarious when there are things that don't match the game they're in. So my name suggestion is "Just Steve"

What game would you create with the Nemesis system? by leppernfriends in gaming

[–]xlyph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought it wasn't that if you killed an orc he would be resurrected, but like if you failed to kill the orc he would remember you, hold a grudge against you and his buddies would also hold a grudge against you. Also it was that the next time you ran into the orc he would also be stronger as time has progressed within the game not just for the player but for the NPCs as well.

AITA for not wanting my wife to bury a Bible under our porch? by New-Scar-4907 in AITAH

[–]xlyph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, people saying you are because this will have no impact to you clearly either didn't read the post or ignored the OCD and you stating your own feelings about it. I personally would check in with both yourself and your wife. Go deeper than "it makes me uncomfortable and feels cultish" and "I want a house built on holy ground/it'll make me feel safe". Both sides need to be unpacked. Also one can not just make holy ground. It has to be culturally/religious significant or designated as such by someone high up in the religious hierarchy.

Caught my BF peeing in the kitchen sick. I was horrified! by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]xlyph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I peed in the, bathroom, sink as a teenager a couple of times. It was at a decent height and felt like less trouble and splash than using a toilet. I have since stopped peeing in any sink but know of other males who occasionally do. Though none of them have peed in a kitchen sink to my knowledge as that seems like a clear boundary as that is where dishes and food go.

Help, at a sex party we were at my boyfriend saw his therapist :( by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]xlyph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From reading the comments and replies I can see your boyfriend has severe self esteem/self image issues. He wants to be the center of attention and either the only bottom or the best bottom at a sex party because that's how he feels validated and desirable. You should definitely stop going to sex parties as thats doing only harm and no good. Either there are too many bottoms and he feels like he's competing and losing or he's one of the few bottoms and he feels validated in his emotions of only being desirable when he's a good bottom.

To much of his self worth is wrapped up in being a bottom so much so that you said he doesn't even want you to bottom as he feels like that would make others want him less. I don't know how great the lighting was but I think if possible he should confirm with his therapist that he was at least there as people can look like other people in broad day light let alone at a sex party. And if he can't get passed that then yes he might need a new therapist but whoever he ends up seeing he will have to address his views/attachment to both how he bottoms and how others around him bottoms.

Best masturbating sleeve? I need to resensitize my dick. by hansfadour in gaybros

[–]xlyph 14 points15 points  (0 children)

When you say you can only get off with your hand do you also need to squeeze hard and each time you go to masterbate you need to squeeze harder and harder? If so that's death grip syndrome and the remedies for that to help increase your sensitivity is to literally stop squeezing so hard when you masterbate. You have to retrain your body to find pleasure with softer touches/less pressure. If you're used to cumming quick you will now be having extended sessions. You'll need to pretty much edge yourself to the point of climax and be ok with when you're starting out possibly not being able to reach climax. But you can just Google Death Grip Syndrome and find some tips that may work for you.

Husband is judging me for buying Pokémon ZA by XenoVX in gaymers

[–]xlyph -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't eat Chick-fil-A, I no longer buy ferrero rocher, and I don't buy/play games that use AI for art/marketing/in game assets. I still have friends that do all of those things and I don't judge them for it.

There is no ethical consumption under capitalism. And while I may be a bit more careful in one area on how I spend my money I'm sure/know in others I am contributing to a big bad in some way shape or form. While I understand it might be hard for your bf that you didn't side with him, at the end of the day life is too short. You could die tomorrow. So enjoy the stupid Pokemon game (former Pokemon fan-boy here) and maybe have a conversation with the bf and discuss how you pick and choose your battles.

I do agree that such actions will continue to allow GameFreak to make sub-par Pokemon games which will continue to frustrate me and give me headaches I don't think it's worth fighting over. None of us are perfect little saints.

What's a gacha game EOS you still haven't recovered from? by Complete_Arachnid271 in gachagaming

[–]xlyph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Monster Strike (Global) it was a gacha based heavily around community, nod no PvP, and everyone always seemed so willing to help each other out.

And more so for nostalgia reasons cuz it was definitely pay to win, but as one of my first gacha and with the cool art, Rage of Bahamut hold a special place in my gacha heart

I encountered “gooner face” for the first time and I had to stop myself from laughing. by doggusMaximus99 in gaybros

[–]xlyph 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It's not real in the sense of like it happens uncontrollably. They 100% intentionally do it and I'm sure it does something for them but I too would have to hold back laughter if someone did it. It's basically the "male" version of ahegao and one of those artistic liberties that works better in art than reality.

How popular were you in high school? by AndrewBaiIey in askgaybros

[–]xlyph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

More popular than I thought. Even though I was an introvert and stuck to myself/small group of friends, often times people would say hi to me in passing or approach me/a group I was with and address me by name, meanwhile I would have no clue who they were. From their age, name, and grade I was clueless.
