I know people like the originals more than the newer ones, but I really enjoyed those too, I really love Adam Jensen and all the stereotypes on him, and Mankind Divided ended in a huge cliffhanger. I guess I'll never know how it ends =/
Ooh this is a real one, I lost my cybervirginity in a IRC chat before I even cared about losing my IRL one. In fact I was a bit late on that one (19 y/o)
We're Xennials, sir/ma'am. Best microgeneration! And I agree, in fact when I was younger I was more conservative, now in my very early 40s I'm a filthy progressive, especially in the social sense.

Too bad their mobile app is the worst thing I've ever seen in my life regarding streaming services. I know people like to rag on Netflix, at least their app is top notch. How can a big company like HBO have such a piece of crap software when dozens of better examples to copy from already exist is beyond me.
My experience is exactly the same. I find people way more toxic here, and way more extreme discussions. I still reddit more on my PC, RES makes reddit worthwhile, and I'm unsubbed to most of the very popular subreddits, so my feed is mostly tailored to my hobbies and interests, which don't seem to be either very active here, or don't exist yet.
Since I don't reddit on my phone anymore cause I can't use RIF, I use kbin. But it's rather lackluster to me.
Excellent! I thought I was the only deranged person who loves freshly cooked rice with some mayo. I've noticed a lot of people really look down on mayonnaise for some reason, when all it is, is some egg and oil, salt optional but great IMO, and some lemon juice to complement, also optional. I feel that just goes really well with a starch like rice!
You're forgiven. I know I'm not the only person though, I'm Chilean and we love putting mayo on everything over there. I'm just deranged to the rest of the world lol.
Same here, and I'm taking Vyvanse too! (well the generic now, which is half the price, woohoo!). And it was my primary care doc who prescribed it. All I need to do is to see him every 6 months for a checkup. And obviously my ID when I pick them up at the pharmacy.
Damn, you get a drug test every time you get Vyvanse? All I have to do is show my ID, in Texas of all places too. I didn't even get one done the very first time, a year ago. But I've been seeing my doc for a decade now, and he knows I'm quite straight-edge. Maybe that's why I've never been asked to get one done.
That movie has plenty of good stuff, but the protagonists ruin everything. Their interactions are so awkward, they have zero chemistry considering they're a couple, and they freaking look like teenagers when they should look like adults. That soured my enjoyment of that movie a lot. Everything else was pretty decent, it makes for a good scifi action film imo. I like cheese so I'm not bothered by that.
I'm a huge 5th element fan, and I was expecting something like that. I mostly got it, but Willis+Jojovich was a muuuuch better pairing.
Hah I was thinking about that one, I played the three of them (I think that's all of them?) way back in the early 90s. What a novel concept, a jungle lady saving a prince!
Well the article says it's mostly caused by an underwater volcano's emission that happened last year, that's just reaching now the south pole, and concentrating there atm because of how winds work due to Earth's rotation.
Everybody is blaming anything they can, and not even bothering reading the news. Pretty on par with the internet.
There are plenty of multiplayer games I adore. However, it seems like every community has these “brain dead”, patronizing, or out right toxic elements that are just nasty. I’d rather debate politics than make suggestions in some gaming communities because the responses are just so … annoying....
Yes, but the type of game and the interactions in it highly influence the way players act with each other. Look at the way Stardew Valley players and communities are, for example, and then look at the League of Legends one. Incredibly different, simply because the games focus on different things. Competition brings out the worst in people, especially online, and with young (and sometimes old) players who don't have the tools to cope with frustration, toxicity snowballs and turns everybody sour.
A text version is way more time consuming for the author.
And that's why they're better quality. And I don't think any written oldschool FAQ were sponsored at all. They're an art and I miss them. I also hate the videos for everything, thankfully steam forums or reddit usually have written answers for my gaming questions. Oh and wikis.
Well I haven't played in years, but I was super active in Ingress right until Pokemon Go became a thing. I found it so fun and innovative, and PG felt like Ingress with a skin, so it didn't hold my attention at all.

(Partial rant) Why are gaming communities for multiplayer games so often filled with toxicity? Why aren't game developers doing more to stop this?
