There is no situation in which I would acknowledge the existence of hexbear in real life.

They’re some of my favorite games, but there’s no reason to force yourself to play them. I like that the combat is still the classic simple JRPG format. It’s satisfying to just run around and check every drawer, closet, and cupboard in a new town. They’re structured so you can play for like 30 minutes a day and always feel like you made some progress.

5g didn’t bring the widespread adoption of everything being connected that it was sold as, but it’s way faster than 4g and definitely worth it.

Marxism-Linenism

I could potentially see doing it for printing but I genuinely can’t think of any other reason.

left libertarians

communism is authoritarian

The political compass is not theory.

I’m the first diagnosed, but I’m certain my mother also has ADHD and her mother probably has some mild OCD.

You’re saying I bought a whole stack of scantrons for nothing?

The early Red Menace episodes from RevLeft Radio that are meant to be companion pieces to some of the shorter foundational pieces of theory helped me out a lot when I was just starting to read theory:

I would do the reading and then listen to the episode and it really gave me confidence that I was actually understanding what I was reading.

I’ve read all three volumes of Capital, and I can confidently say reading it is something you should do eventually, but it would be counter productive to read it without already having a fairly good understanding of most of it’s core concepts and having built up a tolerance for dry, difficult reading. Starting with it is the theory equivalent of trying to read Ulysses as your first novel or playing battletoads as your first videogame.

Also, I’ve talked to people who haven’t read it in its entirety but definetly understand it better than I do.

There is a new translation of it into English that just came out that’s supposed to be a lot easier to understand but I personally haven’t checked it out yet.

A lot of people here have read theory, but also a lot of have not. Both categories will tell you to read theory. The point is more telling people to not argue out of their ass and be knowledgeable.

Mario may have laid the ground work but the genre didn’t really solidify until the release of Castlevania 64 added 3 crucial elements:

• Not knowing where to go because every environment in the game looks the same
• Bullshit fights where you just spam the same attack and dodge
• Spooky

Because of this I prefer to call the genre mariovanias

That middle one reminds me of a bumper sticker I saw once that said “I believe in Bigfoot and I vote”

You realize you posted this on the furthest left instance, right? The comm thumbnail is literally a picture of Lenin.

This isn’t going to go well for you. You should probably just delete this post and move on.

Skeet & Skedaddle

From my perspective nothing since I blocked the account.

This is why I use OpenBSD.

Tactical RPGs. I try every now and then to play a fire emblem game and I just straight suck ass.

Getting the seeds out of a pomegranate, I’ve tried literally every method and I’m convinced every video that shows people doing it is fake.

I also cannot sing and clap at the same time.
