Lots more content in general (maps, characters, abilities) and improved Agony mode and potions (idr if those were in the initial EA or not)
Jon Voight
Shia LeBeouf
right into the trash it goes!
Its absolutely enforced when we see it happen. Report any instance of the disengage rule being used improperly like that. We don’t see everything and rely heavily on user reports to point out CoC violations
something something white cultural identification something
edit: I mean this seriously, I just can’t remember what the exact terminology is for “participating in this [country music] culture as a way of reaffirming whiteness and the status quo that comes with it”
He recently came out publicly supporting trans rights and specifically the right for trans kids to transition, much to the chagrin of his redditor fanbase, so tbh I think he’s not that bad
Apart from using nazi dogwhistles a ton in his earlier videos (and to lesser extent in recent content) he also makes ableist and racist jokes out the ass. He was clearly raised on 4chan
Right I thought the average size of a congress approved defense budget was just under a trillion lol
Two predictions:
This will cost upwards of $300mil to make
It will make $1bil+ because Minecraft is the best selling game of all time by far and every single child even remotely aware of it will want to go see it
God are we really doing this again? Accessibility in games is very good and “easy” modes are fine. This kind of passive-aggressive hand-wringing comes off as incredibly gatekeepy, mean-spirited and bad faith.
Fredrik Knudsen’s video on EVE is really fascinating stuff, though more focused on in-universe events. I don’t recall him even bringing this up in the vid which seems like a huge miss, I just recall various claims of admins giving benefits to certain users unchecked for a while. Also tracks with the monetization changes the devs made that universally pissed off their whole playerbase, unironic lolbertarians are wild
I’ll give you that, baseball is dull and slow 90% of the time. It’s slightly better since they added pitch timers to the MLB but other sports are much more exciting
People who shit on sports fans have never tried seriously watching a sports game. Go to an NBA game in person and tell me with a straight face that it sucks and is boring
Only good thing about League is ARAM, summoners rift is legalized torture
Skibidi toilet makes more sense than 95% of SFMs from back in the day. Like there’s an ongoing storyline and everything. People who hate on it but watched other sfm/ytp nonsense back in the day just have boomer ass mindsets
Hard agree on the soundtrack, imo the SotS music is probably Chris’ best work on the franchise so far and he brought in a couple collaborators who elevate it further. I Should Build the Man a Statue is a highlight, esp once the the riff starts popping off around 2:16
There are third party tools that let you do that, not officially supported though. So yeah you can revert the game to its previous fully functional state at least. Just a shame it doesn’t work properly out of the box atm ya know? It’s a hassle
RoR2 is one of my all-time favorite games, just a masterpiece of coding, art design and extremely addictive gameplay. It sucks ass how badly Gearbox butchered it, but yeah the general consensus is that suits rushed the development process and now one of the best roguelikes ever made is almost unplayable. Like ffs the final boss’ AI glitches out and he becomes invincible so you can’t even beat the base game currently. All signs so far point to them investigating the bugs and actually fixing shit eventually but that could take months based on what modders have discovered about the new code. Another causality of the slow painful decline of the mainstream gaming industry in capitalist hell
This hurts me so much I have half a mind to remove it. But I will be strong
Streamers aren’t revolutionaries, at their absolute best they can serve as a piece of the pipeline to the left. It’s good that Hasan’s audience (the majority of whom are basically kids) is being exposed to consistent and principled anti-imperialism. I wish that didn’t come with all the baggage of making his millions off of that same audience but I don’t think its a net negative considering we live in a society etc etc.
That being said BadEmpanada is a drama-seeking childish weenie who contributes very little that other minor internet celebrities don’t already do better and more consistently
Imo yes, they’ve added more stuff to do since then and if you play on Agony mode you will definitely get close to the kind of chaos you mentioned in VS. HoT is less of a pure dopamine rush than VS for sure and I can see why that would turn some players off to it, but imo its a more refined and interesting experience.
I’ve barely played Holocure but the little I did play I remember enjoying a lot, I’m probably gonna hop into that one next. My personal ranking rn would probably be: HoT, Brotato, VS, Death Must Die (this will probably go up once they add a little more content, love this game), and Nordic Ashes in 5th.
