i had to write a funky kong essay to get a gigantic transphobe banned, instead of just him being banned for being a shithead

I have yet to have a job that didn't drive me to tears with stress at one point. Depression and anxiety are epidemic within modern capitalism, my dudes.

There are plenty of non-toxic workplaces where depression and anxiety are the exception, not the norm.

There's a lot I could be sad about but I am deeply grateful that I have some boring higher ed job with lots of downtime so that I can post at work instead of cursing my fleeting existence like in past workplaces. Now if I only could play video games too, that would be living the dream.

I don't have that much downtime but post at work anyway.

cheetah would you be cool with a LOTR-simulation game? Like a Harvest Moon/Stardew Valley/Animal Crossing game where you just live in a Hobbit village and don't actually leave the county. You get new neighbors, grow crops, sometimes you can get a displaced dwarf as a neighbor.

so like a worse animal crossing?

Well setting aside that the shire isn't the part of lotr I really like (in my mind it just exists to make the more fantastic parts pop more), I don't trust any corporate version of Tolkien's world to capture of mood and feel of his writing. At best, they'll capture the mood of the Jackson movies, which is a fine mood to capture in an original setting but in the context of the books I love would just make me regret what could have been.

This is setting aside the fact that until very recently the Tolkien estate was completely unwilling to licence The Silmarillion so all 3rd party works had to be entirely contained within LotR and The Hobbit (the rights to which are owned by the company than bought the company that originally published them).

I still want to see someone try to make Silmarillion movies.

It would be a glorious mess

There's no real way to make it work in anything but book format. It's just too much of a mess. The format is a history book that zooms in and turns into a novel three or four times at interesting segments of the history. That's just a nightmare to adapt.

That's why I want to see it! There is no way it would be anything close to watchable.

Valve needed a serious kick in the rear end because they had become lovely and complacent, but Epic has proven they aren't here to be healthy competition and are here to just smother any of it on PC.

Valve sucks but Epic is even worse.

What is "healthy" competition in this instance?

Making a storefront that's actually better than Steam for costumers and devs instead of just poaching games last minute.

That would literally never get anything close to steam's marketshare without exlusives. Being the established store everyone already uses is a huge deal.

like never ever

edit: I do hope that they make the Epic store less poo poo

the irony of sekiro removing corpse runs by implementing the actually worse penalty of straight up losing half your cash/current exp with no chance of recovery on death is a thing i've thought about a lot, to be sure

Losing gold is way better than corpse runs because it doesn't waste your time

it still wastes your time but in a different way

It really didn't do that for me since I didn't really have gold problems. Like maybe I had to wait a bit longer to afford something at a shop a couple of times.

how far up the prosthetics upgrade trees did you end up going?

Pretty high. I finished one (since I didn't have more of the rarest stuff) but got all of them where I wanted.

I usually banked up my gold by buying gold pouches from the various merchants when I could.

Cowcaster posted:

hm well as someone who has obsessively spent all the money i can as early as i can and banked it so i lose as little as possible from inadvertent deaths, i'm always scrounging for more.

meanwhile i use my prosthetics as freely as i want and still have something like 800 spirit emblems banked without ever bothering to buy any but other people are perpetually running on empty so it just seems like there's a lot of flux from player to player how the resource economies in the game work out

I never ran out of emblems either but I don't think I ever got higher than like 300 in stock.

and in the postgame it actually lets you do something with the loot instead of it just being a hassle
