The notion that the West needs China more than vice versa is laughable. China is literally the biggest importer of Western goods and resources in the world including absolute dependence on American soybeans just to feed its population.

Laws of thermodynamics ensure that it’s a zero sum game at best.

The body is round.

Don’t be silly! That would be archgeologist, obviously.

A woman of class.

Relatable lol

Sseth gave me the courage to finally purchase this outstanding game.

To be fair most of the confusion stems from just the stupidity of the word rogue-lite. I also believe that if you insist on using the words interchangeably - that’s fine as long as you correctly establish the context. Like first you say you’re going to talk about Hades and Dead Cells and then you bring the R-word into it. I personally get confused when I see a video on YT saying best upcoming roguelikes and there isn’t anything resembling Rogue on it at all and the author seems to be completely unaware of the existence of a whole genre. Happens more than I’d like to admit.

I agree with this statement.

Most of the indie Devs these days work under indie publishers (lol) and also receive salary.

The beginning of the end, obviously. Dinosaurs 2.0 shall inherit the Earth since they’re fine with a shitton of CO2 in the atmosphere and warmer everything.

There are milk dogs at least in Vietnam right now.

Reading from a tablet, phone or a laptop is pure savagery! Ebook is a must have if you’re any kind of prolific book reader.

Stupidity is a moral flaw after all.

Based and sandpilled.

BG3 is a terrible example. One of my main gripes with that game is that the virtual DM actively hates evil characters and tries to sabotage your play through at every step. Not to mention that the writers provided only chaotic stupid dialogue variants for evil roleplay. It’s usually [good], [good], [question], [attack the whole town], [goodbye]. And murderhoboing isn’t even fun here because it’s boring to fight whole cities at once. BG3 is a good tactics game with a brothel of a harem VN on the side, but it’s a lousy RPG. Very reminiscent of Mass Effect in that way that was a TPS with a brothel, but a terrible RPG.

Good examples would be KOTOR 2 and Fallout 1/2/NV.

That’s what Xi and Putin and Nasrallah would like you to believe.

Hamas has been violently oppressing Gaza strip basically at gun point. It needs to go. Oppressed people can’t liberate themselves. Not when the oppressor holds the monopoly on violence.

Sinwar wants to enslave Jews, literally his words. I don’t know how people don’t see that Hamas needs to go and the whole Gaza situation is on their hands.

Can’t wait for fusion reactors to not be thing for another 50 years at the very least.
