Statically speaking, globally, we are living in the freest, most prosperous age in recorded history. It was the most peaceful as well, but I am unsure if recent events have changed that.
But by and large, we have more rights and are more prosperous than any other era of human history. And drspite the fact we could literally end the whole goddamn world right fucking now, it's very, very clear that the powers that be really like living, and most conflicts are more focused and less destructive than ever before.
It could very easily be way, way fucking worse. We are nowhere near the worst timeline yet.
You should really check out Dying Light then. I think you might find it interesting.
I'm unsure if GTA V was ever Steamdeck Certified, but I imagine it might have to do with that. They may only offer this for games they said were certified and the devs broke it after the fact. I know Monster Hunter was.
Fair points! I was being somewhat hyperbolic. Compared to us, they are all-powerful, but, they are not in the grand scheme.
I couldn't remember if the planes were infinite or not. But I knew they were at least their own worlds under the Daedra's dominion.
One thing I do remember though is that Mehruns Dagon was actually created in Nirn by some of the Magna Ge before they peaced out. They created him because the Kalpa Nirn was in was being ruled over by an incredibly cruel and tyrannical race with no hope of change, so theh created the very embodiment of change, but realized too late they didn't "install any brakes" so to speak.
And his name is John Cena Mahruns Dagon. So you're right, he isn't evil, it's just in his nature to make things change. I don't remember how he finally ended up banished from Nirn, but that's why he believes Nirn is his by right, cause he was created there.
Valve has consistently offered refunds in these scenarios. They're offering them for GTA V, and they also offered refunds for Monster Hunter when Capcom decided to switch their DRM bullshit and broke it on the Steam Deck. I think Valve has done their part.
They're literally all-powerful gods that reign over their own worlds that are quite possibly the same size as, if not bigger than Nirn. They don't play by our rules. I don't think we can apply our conventions of sex and biology to them lol.
As I said: they can be whatever the fuck they want.
In a literal sense, yes. But they present themselves as male or female usually. So it's still appropriate to refer to Boethia as "genderfluid" because they send to switch it up.
On one hand, this does point out that there is at least some evidence suggesting they were actually used as weapons.
On the other hand, this also exemplifies exactly why they were so uncommon. Even if you could use them in combat, I imagine any benefit gained from the hook is drastically outweighed by the extra complications to fighting with it.
I've been saying this even before Bethesda went down the gutter. Everyone is pointing to their recent collosal failures like they wouldn't still be disappointed even if ES6 was "perfect."
I don't think anybody can point out what, exactly, made Skyrim so fucking legendary. It was a buggy, unpolished mess of a game. Its lore was inconsistent. It had a villain and story that should have been deeply intriguing and interesting and yet it does Alduin a disservice and was, quite frankly, boring.
But somehow the game was fun. So fun that people spent an average 80 hours a week playing it, me included! And the only possible exploration is that Bethesda had passion, and then Skyrim inflated their egos. So I can see why people see their recent spree of lackluster-to-terrible games as a very valid reason for agreeing with Tod Howard, for once.
Set that aside, however. Let's assume they "get it right." Let's assume it's made with passion and recent history has humbled them. People will still be disappointed. Why? Because "it's not Skyrim." Just in the same way that hardcore ES fans hated Skyrim because "it's not Morrowind." Skyrim set the bar so astronomically high that it would take an absolute fucking miracle for them to, at bare minimum, meet expectation! And it would honestly be better that they didn't, because then people would expect them to hit that milestone every, single time when the "secret ingredient" to Skyrim's legendary success is so fucking aetherial nobody can say exactly what it is.
The fuck would they know about what "the worst thing for you" would be? They ain't you! And nobody gets to decide how you experience yourself and your attractions. You're valid! However you experience your bisexuality, you're valid. And nobody gets to define your experience but you.
This, tbh. Propaganda is a hell of a drug. And the worst part is, it's not a drug most people willingly take. They're blindsided, their phycology is abused to suck them in, and before long, without even realizing it, they're in a completely different reality, scared and paranoid. It's terrifying and sad.
I'm a huge coffee drinker. Used to have a machine. It broke. Bend using an aeropress and French press for awhile and find that I really don't miss the machine.
The best time to save the planet was 10 years ago. The next best time is now.
The presidential debate, in which Donald Trump repeated the debunked claim that Haitian immigrants were eating common household pets.
Honestly, it seems to me he realizes he fucked it up, and the fact he blames 4chan suggests some level of self-awareness. I really hope he logged off that wretched site and apologized to the woman.
My comment wasn't "Linux works perfectly in every single regard." It was "Linux isn't hard to use for the things that do work on it." I'm well aware Linux isn't right for every use-case, nor did I say it was, I said it wasn't hard to use. Compatibility is a separate issue here.
