I remember the devs of Avowed having put a delay in place maybe twice now… I feel that Obsidian still believes their game needs polish, and it’s convenient that they can push it further back due to the busy release schedule. Furthermore, I don’t trust Spencer to be completely honest. This seems like a misdirection buried in a truth about a busy release schedule.

This is why I use this music with a care. To not only stay sensitive to it, but also due to not having to absolutely be up for something every day.

The Sonic drowning soundtrack will wake me out of a dead fucking sleep. That’s what I use for alarms that I can’t afford to sleep through.

Honestly, I don’t mind the lack of romance in Avowed. What I do want is the best written characters possible, if they weren’t comfortable with writing romantic subplots, it’s cool. I only expect them in cozy farming or simulation games.

It’s the first time they opened their eyes to the reality; that there are stories in BioWare games that don’t cater to straight white dudes purely. This rustles their jimmies in a huge way, the outrage tourists and hate peddlers have been aggressive in the gaming space as most of their hateful audience has run out of steam. Looking for fresh anger and hate, they’ve been having a field day with gaming chuds.

It’s odd that there is a quality issue with Veilguard’s writing and voice direction, a lack of nuance and trusting their audience to get what’s going on is present in a lot of the dialogue. Particularly, dialogue dealing with one’s companions. I watched a video and was saddened to say that this Veilguard isn’t for me. I still hope it does fine, granted, as I want BioWare to have a chance to course correct and get a better creative lead and writers onboard. Tell me all those ‘woke’ stories but with better writing!

Huh, they love to confirm how weird they actually are! So bold of him to assume people wouldn’t side eye or call him a fucking freak for this ‘the call is coming from within the house’ shit.

That was a delayed grift release, no wonder they stealth launched it (given it would’ve tarnished them even more). I hope they get a lot of shit for this scammy ‘game’.

ROFL He should be a writer for The Onion!

As a casual user of Linux (no strong inclination or skill in coding), I tend to veer towards distros that minimize the Terminal usage in favor of graphical user interfaces for accomplishing most changes. Modern Linux distros are a lot friendlier in terms of installing Software from a distro store and graphic drivers via a graphical interface. You won’t ever fully be able to eliminate the terminal usage, as it’s inevitable for certain tasks like adding PPAs on Ubuntu for example. It was honestly word salad for me during my first foray into the Linux world; but now I have a basic understanding of the Linux kernel and how it functions on a very surface level. I know enough to string commands together and understand the reason why it’s necessary to do things in a certain order.

I’m not sure if you’d have a good time with Linux, I’m hesitant to tell you to take the plunge because you will have to faff around with the terminal and use commands at times to accomplish certain things. That requires both focus and patience, something which is naturally difficult for those with ADHD (unless a hyperfixation is quite strong). I’d give yourself time to think about switching for a while, ultimately you might be better sticking with the current OS that you’re using.

Hah, I even got this pun, so this is a good one as a casual Linux user. You can stay!

Those that adopt such an outlook tend to be far removed from the concept of empathy for other human beings…Others who don’t believe as them or live as them are simply in the wrong. It’s such a dismal way to exist in my opinion.

ROFL This is accurate. It will certainly distract you from serious mental health issues but not act as a balm against inner discord.

The Onion is impeccable with their satire; horrifying facts made to be digestible using humor. Hopefully, this KKK shitburgler doesn’t get the future he wants to create, that other young dudes and ladies thwart his every effort.

I want quality content and not the slop Ubishit and Evil, Actually are wont to create; there are several ‘AAA’ games studios that belong on the right-hand side but wouldn’t fit in the meme well.

ROFL Owen is a thick-skulled fool. I am glad that Destiny owned this dude and called him out on his bullshit. I’ll have to watch the whole video.

Good, coordinated strikes and marches in the places that hurt Amazon the most with prepared, concise demands is a great strategy! Corporations need to understand what they are doing to people is wrong and people won’t just take it anymore.

This is often me on my first of four days off, because dammit, social interaction/being alive is so tiring.

I should, it wasn’t the most immediate thought in my head; Republicans openly court the wealthy for donations, while most Dems (there are a few outspoken individuals that try) fail to curtail the power wealthy people have in US politics. Wealth Class is certainly a good addition to my list of criteria, as those who are less wealthy and are outright poor often have no voice in the political space. Unless they really create a proper spectacle which can’t be ignored.

THIS, 1,000%! Third Party doesn’t have a huge presence in the USA, only because people don’t do the work to get it there. It requires a lot of work that should be done just after the new sitting president is elected. Building a recognizable platform with proper support takes a lot of effort. It would be worth it, though, to truly support the people in ways which a two party system cannot. Holding the President and other people in power accountable with sensible words and meaningful action would get a party to gradually become a household name.

After I vote for Kamala, this is what I will be looking into. Finding a third party (one with aims to support everyone, no matter gender, sexuality, etc).

Such a deeply troubling article…They sought a noble thing in dark fucking places; trying to make a better model of parenting and expressions of masculinity which wouldn’t lead to a similar situation of Nazi Germany. If only they had chosen a different route for several of their experiments, they might have actually succeeded. I always wondered why homosexuality and pedophilia were conflated in most people’s minds; this article explains it to me. I’m glad this survivor manages to heal after he suffers for so long.
