This screams that people with different opinions aren't people with valid opinions and lead to further dialectic conversation, and I reject that premise.

Conservatives should be welcome. Everyone should be welcome.

This has always been the case.

Exactly, kind of. Religious fundamentalism is a fascinating concept, because basically it is exactly that - taking the fundamental ideas of the religion and using that interpretation to derive perspective and subsequent law or policy.

In a very real, significant way it's a better representation of the religion than the watered down, culturally accepted version that moderate religious individuals will say is the 'real' version.

Orthodox is fundamentalism, and anything otherwise is not the actual religion, even if that is the majority, like modern Christianity.

I say appree-see-ate for appreciate, and artif-isss-ee-al for artificial.

Am I the only one worried about it scratching my eyes???

FIY, Al-Lah literally means the ( one and only ) God. It's never, meant as a name the way you understand it, likes like a transcendent title, a position in a way. It's never been a literal name.

I complain about Woke a lot and I'm a dyed in the wool leftist to be fair. There's a broader spectrum of opinion out there.

I'm sorry but literally no. There are exactly 3 Dark Souls games, the first came out 14 years ago. Demon's Souls, Bloodborne, Elden Ring, and maybe Sekiro can be considered Soulslike, but your comment reeks of naivety.

They're all individually some of the most mechanically unique games, with a ton of variety between each other. It's not even remotely the same as a FIFA, Madden, or Call or Duty level of cut / paste.

I don't think you understand the joke. Usually people switch to Linux dual booting coming from Windows, I was making the opposite joke - starting from Linux and dual booting into Windows and then switching.

PS. I once set up BURG and quad booted 4 Linux distros, get on my level

 

I have Mushihimesama Futunari on Xbox 360 for a long time, store closed and I learned black label DLC is now going.

Are there any option? I can't find physical DLC disk, maybe it never exist.

I have options?

 

Sorry for the poor title, but even when people talk about climate change, and know it's hotter for them, people don't actually seem to talk about the impact on the rest of the biosphere.

I can't tell if it's not thought about, or just not discussed as much because it is not 'relevant' to their lives.

I can barely function outside for a few minutes without being drenched in sweat, and some of it is probably poor health and not being used to it, but I can tell sl with certainty that I can't survive outside in this heat, and I'm living as a result of a trick or technology.

The animals though? Some of them are straight up fubbernucked. There will be mass animals die offs and people won't even notice.

 

I think about this from time to time, but most recently it's the Persona 3 remake that's got me thinking about it now.

The original game was dark, gritty, and I'm really concerned that they're going to downplay that for the more colorful 'mainstream' style in Persona 5.

I loved Persona 5, but 3 has my favorite aesthetic, my favorite 'feel'. I'm worried they now feel like the dark blue, and 'gun' motifs are more controversial now.

I'm also highly disappointed that the extra content from FES and portable won't be in it, that feels like half the appeal of a remake for this title.

I want to like it, but I probably won't.

 

Maybe I like bad games, or maybe Cyberpunk 2077 was never quite as bad as people say - I'm not sure because I unironically love Forspoken and think it's one of the best games I've ever played.

I did hate on the game hard at release, and a lot of it was well deserved, trying to play it on PS4 or Xbox One ( I picked it up on both ) was actually awful and unstable, I couldn't progress past the club at the beginning of the Street Kid life path so I eventually hung it up for a while.

I bought it at launch, and it was a bad launch, reminded me of the launch of No Man's Sky, except visually the game was stunning, and there was a lot more substance, but it was actually broken.

I ended up giving it a real try at the end of 2021 when I managed to get my hands on an Xbox Series X and it was a drastically different game. This was before the 'next gen' patch, but it had enough fixes and ran butter smooth on the Series X that I ended up getting enthralled.

Y'all this game is good. I had a great build that was frustratingly nerfed hard at the next gen patch ( RIP Overwatch ) but wow the story and world is so interesting, and I feel like this is this AI revolution story just waiting to be told in the background - it's good shit.

I haven't played since the next gen patch, so all that will be new to me along with Phantom Liberty so I'm looking forward to a drastically different game than I played a year and a half ago.

I think CDPR finally did it, or will have did it upon release.

I can't wait.

 

I was skeptical, so skeptical, but y'all, it's really actually that good. It both does and doesn't feel like Final Fantasy, the overall story feels very FF, but the way that it's presented feels like a season of Game of Thrones.

I like the worldbuilding and depth of the lore, the voice acting is incredible, visuals are great, and some of the vistas and set pieces have been incredible.

Boss battles are this insane spectacle that I just wasn't expecting, it's just non stop flashy and it gets me pumped and full of anxiety, combat system is pretty complex.

I was not happy about the idea of losing turn based or quasi turn based battles, and I never feel like I have a 'party' ( my happiest was with Jill and Cid ) but it still all works.

The main villain oozes mystery and is pretty creepy, and the secondary villains have been mostly memorable.

I love it.
