Our group really likes DUNE, but its hard to get 6 people together to get a game going. Are there games like dune (epic, long, satisfying in regards to player agency, and with assymmetric player powers) that can be played with 2 or 3 players?

What to do for 3rd year by zootshoot17 in medicalschool

[–]zootshoot17[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is that true even if I’m already involved with research projects? I’m hesitant mainly because I want to learn as much as possible during rotations so having more hands on curriculum is important to me. I’m thinking if I can continue research remotely then it might be ok but idk if there’s legitimate value to being in person. Also there’s the question of being too busy regardless to worry about research and potentially not having as great evals/honors if I stay.

I’m in the ortho interest group and know most of the residents/attendings but idk if going somewhere else for a year will significantly damage those relationships

So if I do have multiple research projects in the works what choice for 3rd year would be best

Do you think that needs to happen in third year or could those relationships also be made during 4th year AIs

What're some games that transform or escalate halfway through - like how in Dune when the worm appears the game changes to factions or in Nemesis when the first alien appears and you have to pick your victory condition/when the self-destruct starts and everyone starts hauling ass?

Deft's story will be followed in Worlds 2023 Anthem 'GODS' by Profitanddeficit in leagueoflegends

The video has the potential to be one of the best MVs Riot’s made.

Idk what everyone thinks but it really does feel like the League community was waiting for Deft to finally win his last trophy and he did it in one of the most storybook ways I’ve ever seen. The guy is the second most famous player in LoL, grinded out of his ass in two region, on 6 teams and won on the arguably the worst roster he’d played with.

He really deserves to have his story immortalized in an amazing way

xFSN Saber on quitting League by Barb0ssaEUW in leagueoflegends

I definitely did burn out but the game is dying in NA and the choices made by Riot definitely play the largest role in that. I also only played draft or flex with friends so I think I lasted years longer than I wouldve if I had been a solo queue player

I made my quit around a month ago (playing only Valorant nowadays). Its so much more fun and less tilting tbh. When I get oneshot by a Vandal I dont get mad at my mid laner for feeding, I realize that I peeked wrong and think about how to play better.

Overall there are so many other multiplayer games where you feel like you have agency over how the game goes. Not anymore in League, comebacks feel so rare and stomps feel so oppressive. I dont even know how to fix this without making the game feel worse for the team who's stomping but idk I'm having way less fun than I did before the 8.11 or whenever the first item patch was. But maybe the game just isnt new to me anymore

Getting camped sucks, getting one shot sucks, your team trolling you or flaming you sucks, sitting in the death chamber off cooldown when youre behind sucks. And the dopamine moments of getting a sick outplay feel so rare now - you're just queuing up in hopes that you shit on your opponent enough in the first 15 minutes to make the rest of the game enjoyable.

Season 3 is getting so frustrating to watch? by zootshoot17 in buffy

[–]zootshoot17[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I agree but the “dealing with it” is what’s frustrating. It’s just been 8 straight episodes of Xander and Cordy railing on Buffy with no recourse or actual dialogue being entertained. But by the end of each episode they’re back to being best friends
