Rufus from Deponia. He is very egocentric but with a huge heart at the same time. Not sure if this is too niche but a huge shoutout to deponia to all who loved sierra adventures back in the day.

been there, done that. I know it feels bad but it really isnt that bad, and many people were at that point before eventhough they wont admit it. my best advice to get started is: if you can throw stuff away, get a few big trash bags, fill them up with all the stuff you actually dont need and get it out. dont worry about recycling, this is a special occasion and progress is most important. you got this :)

gotta love how every time there is a woman voiceing an opinion thats critizising men just in the slightest, the comments are filled makeing sure we know “bUT Not aLL MeN”

hot take: if you feel the need to defend yourself from such takes, maybe its time for some self-reflection (:

but the people are already kicked… Look if bob works at “bob studios” and i love his work and want to support him, i can buy his game. but if bob got fired long ago, he wont get the money i give to “bob studios”. You are supporting a buisness construct and not the artist in this case here. almost all workers in the game dev field loose their job post project anyway, so you are not even helping them. So i stand by point that this is capitalist propaganda. Its sad but videogame artists get abused by the scene a whole lot. i think it makes sense to show support witht the individuals who make the games you love, rather than the legal steuctures trying to milk them.

other people got paid already. they most likely wont loose money or portfolio if you boycott. its rare that lower level devs and artists are getting any percent of the sales numbers. This talking point from you is coming straigt from bigger publishers all the way to stockholders that have nothing to do with the product.

This videos opinion stems from the unhealthy state of gaming companys and the promise of infinite growth. Companies like EA and Ubisoft and the like have established that after a huge game you have to make an even bigger one. a AAA game has to be followed up by AAAA. best case releasing the next year already. everyone who has experience in managing a company (especially in the gaming industry) knows this is unsustainable and toxic for the art. From Software is the last really big games developer that didnt forget what healty growth is. After they released a banger, they do two-three smaller projects, where you can be more creative and experimenting. less budget and less risk. and use this time, experience and money to work on another big title.

to be fair, this is the image the center parties have and upkeep. I, as a farly left person, already question if this seperation to right extremism will still be upheld in 4 years. Our Center-right partie CDU falls more and more for populist rethoric, which reminds me of the republicans or the toris.

So what you have been told is not wrong per se. But there is a significant amount of people in the country and politicans in the parlaiment, that argue the seperation between right exremism and center parties did already collaps behind the scenes.

and so it begins…

well the understanding of the world was, that everything has a soul like attribute. and they are in a hirachy from close to god to far from god. so gold was inherantly a very close to god metal and therefore inherantly more worth than lead which was somewhat far from good.

So based on that world view of fixed values based on the christian god, they had no reason to belive the economy might suffer.

AAA movies were called that by haveing A-class actors A-class musicans and A-class production company. this correlates to nothing in Videogames. Its mostly a marketing term. I agree with most that initial budget plays the biggest role.

front faceing stan doesnt exist. he cant hurt you.

Front faceing stan:

Well i am non binary but we best fit the lesbian lable. doesnt matter at all, i just wanna do my part to prevent lemmy to become heteronormative. we already had that on reddit to an annoying amount ^^

But thats what i assume her thoughts were based of the speechless reaction xD

my now wife is american. i learned uk english. one day we and some friends sat in a team speak voice chat. my now wife asks where XY is. i tell them, that they left to smoke a fag (which is uk söang for smokeing a cigerette). She was very concerned to say the least.

because people keep telling me to shower xD but seriously. at no point in history did people voluntarily live in reek. since citys formed people manages human waste pretty efficently.

misconception. There are many crappy ai imges of them falling through the cathedral floor. there are sources against that and also its very illogical. church ground is holy after all. the fall was most likely outside of a building, somewhat nearby the cathedral. also based on what we know it normally didnt smell. i mean imagin living somewhere and smelling poop every day. you will find a solution to block the smell rather quickly ^^
