It’s also great for etymology! Obviously etymonline is my go-to for English, but Wiktionary has plenty of info on other languages.
The protagonist of Fallout 2 is literally a tribal that goes to save his tribe and in the end kills the president of USA.
I really liked the visuals, especially at the start, and there’s some really nice beats, but the story fall completely apart as soon as the tears to alternate realities are introduced and given that the story ends up completely relying on that… yeah. I agree 100%.
I felt right at home in Resident Evil 2 after Alone in the Dark. That was way back when tho.
I never was a console player so I only got around to playing the original Halo a couple of years back. It was a decent shooter, but nowhere near as great as I imagined. IMO the original Half Life does everything much better and it came out three years earlier.
I’m curious about Goldeneye and Perfect Dark, but I kinda expect the same kind of disappointment.
Its now like -gate being affixed to any kind of publicized controversy.
Most people do not understand what Watergate even was and why it was so significant.
I think you mean watergategate.
What about category D?
Historians pretty much agree that Jesus was a historical figure, even though heavily fictionalised.
Please provide evidence for Caesar.
I’m pretty sure cookie clicker has no victory condition, it just goes on and on. At least it was that way last time I played it. Things might have changed since.
This reminds me of an exhibiton I once saw called “No Pain, No Game”. The idea being that any sort of game has some failure state, some obstacle to overcome, that’s what makes it a game. So of course I started thinking of counter-examples. Your slot machine idea is a good one, what I eventually came up with is Cookie Clicker. That game is nothing but positive reinforcement. There’s no way to lose progress or mess anything up, any action you take makes you “win more”. Not taking an action also makes you “win more”, just more slowly.
This showerthought is an idea adjacent to that all. Interesting stuff, even though it’s not too deep.
Not really, we’re eukaryotes. We share a common (unknown) ancestor, but bacteria split off into their own monophyletic group I’m pretty sure.
Humans ARE apes. Also fish. Fuck paraphyletic groups.
I wish it was that simple.
Microraptors, even.
With an OTG connector you can just plug a keyboard into your phone. You can do stuff like alt-tab to switch between open apps. And if you plug in a mouse, a giant cursor appears. It’s kinda cursed but it works.
Get Pistol Whip. Best game ever.
