Trying to reframe Tennant’s comments as having anything to do with the Minister’s race or gender is exactly the kind of disingenuous strawmanning bald-faced bullshit we can ever expect from the fucking Tories.

I don’t disagree. I didn’t say the Imperium was the best option, I said it’s the best option humans could come up with. I may be a little cynical nowadays about how readily people will accept authoritarianism in the face of a crisis.

I think The Imperium of Man is the best solution humans could come up with to the threats of a horrific and unforgiving universe, and it does preserve the species, so in that sense it’s “good” even if it’s a nightmare of human rights violations every second of every sol on nearly every planet in the empire. Plus, who the fuck is gonna argue with a psyker so strong he can fight off literal chaos gods?

It’s so good for more reasons than just being able to use other mods safely! It’s really nice being able to transition between areas without having to resummon, how some progression/unlocks are shared, and that all connected players get to use Torrent and spirit ashes.

I dunno man, the trumpets still buy whatever shit he shovels out and they don’t seem to have caught on that he’s a scammer yet…

I love your background!

I’m buying this partly because it looks really good, and partly because ThePruld is the cinematic director and that motherfucker is a genius. If anyone has played Dark Souls and not seen We Are The Souls, I can’t recommend it enough. Also check out his other animations, they’re much sillier and the frantic Italian just makes it better.

This news, from January 2024? https://www.pcgamer.com/dark-and-darker-dev-claims-nexons-preliminary-injunction-has-been-dismissed-court-rules-that-the-game-cannot-be-considered-an-infringement-of-nexons-copyright-or-trade-secret/

First reported by TheGamer, a member of Dark and Darker developer Ironmace has stated on the game’s Discord that they have achieved an early victory in staving off Maplestory publisher Nexon’s copyright lawsuit, with a South Korean court dismissing the publisher’s preliminary injunction.

I have to ask, because you didn’t bother to link it and I also had not read the news. Which, believe it or not, isn’t a personal failing.

Hate is a pretty strong emotion. Why do you hate Linus?

If you’re okay with much older titles, Master of Orion 2 has been my go-to 4X for 30 years. It holds up really well.

If you want something a little newer and absolutely brilliant, and you don’t mind sacrificing some 4X for some RPG, you could try Starsector: https://fractalsoftworks.com

Neither of these are particularly similar to the Total War games, though, in case that’s a deal breaker.

Eh, I still wouldn’t call it a scam. Words have meaning and scams are intentional; this team just couldn’t do what they thought they could, and made a mediocre version of what they had planned. Game development is hard. I’ve tried to get started on simple little projects in UE and Unity a couple times, and the furthest I got was a model that could run and jump on an endless procedural landscape (before the game crashed because the map got too big I mean).

So yeah, absolutely call it a bad purchase, but I don’t think it’s fair to say they were out to “scam” anyone. We got a game, and it wasn’t even truly terrible - way better than that Gollum “RPG” for example - it just didn’t live up to the hype, and better games in the genre exist like Grim Dawn, Last Epoch, PoE, etc.

Welp, I backed the wrong horse there. Shoulda bought Last Epoch instead. Or just kept playing Grim Dawn, that game is fifteen years old and still supported by the devs.

I wanted to see if the note in the footer was effective: https://chatgpt.com/share/8b29d398-ac5a-475d-89be-244e86e335b5

I am open to suggestions on improving my prompts, if anyone’s got tips!

I was under the impression Truss had roundly proven herself unsuitable for any political party already, did anyone really need further evidence?

You have no idea how I vote so you can stuff your childish name-calling. If you knew anything about anything you’d know the primaries are non-binding formalities, and if you’d been around for any length of time you’d remember the DNC told us all very clearly they don’t give a fuck for the primary vote anyway. If they did we’d have had Sanders instead of Clinton in 2016.

I’m gonna block you now because I have no more patience for you. Go be wrong about shit in someone else’s inbox.

Yeah, your “unwillingness” to “accept excuses” is making a massive difference. Thank god you’re here to call us all names, or we might decide to participate in our society come November to stop a literal fucking Nazi with the only tools available to us.

But I digress; please continue. Alienate the people you nominally agree with on at least some points, and change the world all by your onesies. I cannot imagine how you could possibly fail, with this attitude.
