Reddit being just as scummy as when they banned brigading and hate...
(Context: many subs that publicly participated in and encouraged those banned things, such as an infamous anti-black sub as well as an infamous Trump-related sub, were left up, and it took over a month before the best known rule breaking subs were properly banned. There were mass petitions and everything and those subs were ignored for a long time. )
For me it's been communities like /r/buildapc, /r/buildapcforme, /r/buildapcsales, /r/gamedeals, and /r/consoledeals have been useful throughout the years.

Hello everyone! I really want to get into the jrpg genre but I have no idea which game would be good for a beginner. I have played persona 5 and I really enjoyed it. Any recommendations would be really appreciated!
It has no money. It has no gear. It has no cutscenes or events. All it has is spells and stats.
All four elements have their individual levels. To level them up, find spirits in the overworld or get a level up, and it'll let you put one point into an element. When you have enough points in two or more elements, it'll let you combine them (but you have to remember the combinations).
All your stats have individual XP bars, and raising one to 100 gives you 1 character level (which also gives you 1 point for your elements). To level them up depends on what you wanna raise. DEF is raised by getting hit. MP is raised by using magic. HP and physical attack are raised by bonking enemies with your staff. That kind of thing. (TLDR it works like Final Fantasy 2)
It's very simple as an RPG, but it's pleasant to look at and listen to.
@Ignacio That's the thing. I am on the generic. I still pay $25 for 10 pills. For some reason it's far more expensive when I try to get the medication through my insurance.
I am playing Pokemon Violet at the moment and it is a total bore. I have played the game so many times and I just want to run around catch Pokemon and battle....
Hot take: 18 years of user contributions to reddit will serve as a base model for an AI that generates content and conversations. the reddit experience continues as a simulation, to harvest clicks, sales and ad revenue.
