Are you into dramatic NPCs? If no, you have to play it multiplayer with someone who gives a crap about pixel people.

I tried playing it alone but every system in the game is puddle deep so I was only able to play until winter by myself.

Then I played it with my girlfriend, and I spent 100 fondly remembered hours.

I’m saying it is not “non negotiable”.

As long as one person in history has done it once, yes. Just because people around us doesn’ do it, doesn’t mean it’s not “natural”. I don’t know how tribes with 11 disposable children behave.

We used to be night active but if you ask anyone nowadays they’d act like waking up to the sun is THE “natural” thing.

You cannot invoke biology to generalize here. There are many mammals who use their offsprings as projectile decoys when they are in danger.

going to a website (not tech savvy enough for this) vs going to the settings on an app and select a new icon (yay anyone can do it)

I respect (scope: smoking) child carriages as long as they are not next to the road (i.e., car traffic). Then it’s free game.

Perhaps*, this is possibly* ok in games with projectile based attacks maybe* but hitscan weapons are not fun to play against when the “player” has no aiming delay.

Customarily, when doing these kind of calculations we ignore stuff which keep us alive because these things are needed regardless of economic contributions, since you know people are people and not tools.

I don’t miss the price haha, I miss its implications: If you were outside, you were outside; and there was no email which could hopefully find you well.

24/7 connectivity was a mistake. I miss that brief window when we had cheap supercomputers in our pockets, but data was still expensive.

The website doesn’t let you look at it unless you agree to their ad cookies? Is that even legal?

Educate the working class, instead of making them ignorant on purpose so they won’t revolt, so when they seize the means of production they think greener then?

You write a very very very deterministic and guessable AI for the knight.

Your princess sets the scene, then you watch helplessly as your knight fails or succeeds with the given help. So… a stop motion puzzle game

I call myself mlm: mediocre language model

1/e is about 37%, maybe 1-1/e?

How can you sell it to people who “didn’t know they needed it” then? (“Bad” example -> luxury items, “good” example -> new tech which is actually helpful but hard to explain)

Monopolies are bad mmkay

Saying no is communication, and even that is too much sometimes man

The “story” of Hades is that the guy you control gets better over time and finally escapes. How else can you convey it? With text (cardinal sin)?

Also being late would be normalized again so less stress overall.
