I understood that the first time yeah. And I think you agree with me since you edited your comment to further explain your idea. I’m not contradicting your argument, I agree with it and appreciate that you addressed my criticism. I think it’s a hot enough topic to warrant being a bit less open to interpretation, especially in text form.

Kinda dismisses the real criticism people have with guns yeah. They are not advocating against them simply because “they look scary”.

Gotcha, last sentence sounded a little bit pro-gun though hence my response. I still think the ease of access is the main issue, by far. I would probably be dead if I was american as I could’ve easily got a cheap 9mm to off myself during the worse times. It was easier to reach out than to buy a glock and I seriously think it saved my life.

Why not both?

Mine is currently working fine and without a hitch and has been for a while now since the failed attempts at punishing adblockers. I can’t vouch for everyone, but you may be right about your account being flagged for some reason.

So I’ll reinforce my first suggestion to look into turn-based CRPG as a genre and see for yourself. That’s where you’ll find most of the mechanics you seem to want and you won’t have to take the opinions of strangers as to how much gore is too much for you.

Yes but it’s not all of the stuff, far from it

Is any form of violence or blood a no-no? If you can accept some, Larian (bg3’s developper) was already well known for the Divinity series. Many even say that BG3 is kind of Divinity:Original Sin 3 with a DnD license. You’ll still be killing some people though. Otherwise, I suggest searching for Turn-Based games which BG3 is. You might like Battletech which is a mech warrior themed game or the X-Com series where there’s an alien invasion.

And also, you might have been mislead by the videos. Yes the brain parasite is important but you’re really only directly dealing with mind flayers (the tentacle clad monsters) in the very beginning and very end. The rest is just a classic fantasy setting.

Canned water from the alps shipped worldwide is very stupid though. It’s not on topic here but fuck these companies too. This branding is also incredibly cringy in any other setting than a party where you want to fit in with beer cans while not drinking. And let’s not pretend that most people that drink this don’t have access to potable water on tap.

I think we’ve been far more evil towards them than the other way around. We cut the most beautiful of them to make furniture after all.

IN what way would that be evil? They produce the very thing that keeps us alive by transforming what kills us.

I have done all of this. but thanks for posting this. Somehow venting about this kind of anonymously did more help than anything you just listed.

No, not even remotely. I actually feel worst than ever. But I also feel so paralyzed and hopeless.

Then why do the most of us let something like this happen. And while some countries have better healthcare there is still an enormous amount of suffering everywhere be it starvation, war, homelessness you name it. We have the means to be better but we don’t do it.

Incomprehensibly depressing. Everything about this should make us ashamed of ourselves as a species. Or we should just stop pretending that we value each other more than cash. Or at all actually.

In this particular case, it does. Whales are air breathing mammals.

Eating is a fundamental physiological need. Making money from selling food isn’t. We have the means to feed everyone but it’s nor profitable. The ecomomy is a human fabrication.

Ok so he doesn’t understand what makes an rpg beyond skill points. Explains a lot in hindsight. And got so close to clarity when he said they are making a game true to who they are. Just one fast travel away.

How could joysticks replace keyboards apart from forcing you to use a virtual keyboard with a joystick? Is everything else about computing the same or is it some form of fantasy joystick centered computer? Anyway what’s more important is that joysticks already exist in computing and we know they serve a specific purpose and really suck for the rest cause we tried. We designed the computer after all so we control how we interact with them. Not like we found them in the wilds and they somehow only had a joystick.

Thanks chat gpt. But I’ll give you my advice as a 10 year mechanic.

Don’t. You’ll look like a tool and you’ll ruin a perfectly good truck. It’s certainly not a “good investment”.
