To 4chan for me. There is moments of brilliance that get killed when the /pol/ side completes a paragraph.

I'm not an edgelord myself, but just the idea of yakub being the final boss cracked me up

Like I said, moments of brilliance ruined by “but not, seriously, I genuinely like Trump. Not in the meme way but in the “white replacement theory” way”.

Edgelord humor is an art on itself.

i just checked the wiki from the wayback machine, i think the one who did the wiki it self wrote all this themself.
there wasn't really a wiki for this game, i think.

I’m not sure if this makes it sadder or more funny.

Hello,

I got tired of browsing for video game related content on another site only to be hit with posts from people shilling their cosplay/onlyfans. My neighbor mentioned this site as an alternative so here I am.

So far, this place seems chill so I'm happy.

Why can’t people admit they’re well off?

I mean OP are you going to admit you are well off?

I wouldn't go to a country club and say I'm middle class lol. When there so many markers and clear denial, it's weird.

It's a yes or no question!

It serves the owner class that are writing the checks for the workers to not talk about their wages. Wealthier people can entrench this social norm under the guise of modesty, but really it's just because it's a source of class agitation that few people are willing to engage in and our liberal politics shuns.

Ok Booshka.

It's very difficult. I don't know that it's the kind of thing you ever 'get over'.

I've been stable for a few months. I don't *like* maintaining weight. If the scales go in the wrong direction so much as a pound and a half I'm probably going to make some bad choices, but I'm fighting and I'm holding relatively steady in the 140s. I got as low as the 120s, and that was with enough muscle to run a half marathon once a week. I thought I looked good. I look at those photos now and cringe.

For me, I'm leveraging the same 'tools' I used to lose weight to maintain. Basically, weighing myself a lot and constantly doing calculations about calories to make sure I'm eating what I need to eat to stay the same.

I don't think it's sustainable weighing myself four times a day etc but I'm in transition between therapists right now, so I'm telling myself that so long as my numbers are overall where they need to be, that I'm doing okay.

You have to eat enough to stay alive. Only eating when weak isn't going to cut it. Try to figure out what you should be eating every day and stick to it. Even if that means eating the same thing every single day. Meal planning is a great tool.

Having therapy is paramount, so I'm very glad you've got that in place.

OP

In my case I am terrified of gaining weight so I basically starve myself and only eat when I'm weak. My psychiatrist did diagnose my disorderd eating, but I'm not sure how to combat it

Wait so his psychiatrist diagnosed it but gave him no clue as to how to combat it? Even if they didn't give explicit information on how to combat it I'm sure if he asked his psychiatrist he might be able to point him in the right direction. Instead of you know going on the internet and asking some retards on era how to deal with it.

[Snoopy]

Yeah, to me, a 2/5 is much more like a 7/10. Both say to me that the game is flawed more than it's not, and that it might still be a worthwhile experience to have, but with some major caveats. Similarly, a 3/5 would be like a 8/10: a game whose strengths outweigh its weaknesses, i.e. a genuinely good game, with some aspects that are less than great. Similarly 4/5 = 9/5 (really great games) and 5/5 = 10/10 (absolutely incredible games).

Almost as if, if you really had to, you could convert games on the 5 point scale to the 10 point scale by adding 5 to the numerator. But in general the 10 point scale is just imo not useful because a) it's too granular, and b) the bottom half of the scale doesn't get used nearly often enough to make any kind of interpretation of those bottom half scores universal across outlets.

I said "a huge bias against Ubisoft everywhere" and yes I see it everywhere. I did not single out just reviewers here to be clear.

Not sure why you are asking, and why you are asking in this way. I don't need to make anything clear to you, but it seem you are winding up for an angry insulting post or response or something to my opinion. Don't. I am not here for insulting discussion over a video game review. I said what I said and the Ubi bias is real.

There are also a few reviews that are very low and have some bigoted opinions, so that really skews the review too.

I’d rather have government funded arts than not.

Sometimes the result is shit from a butt, as with dustborn.

I don't know about that, when it almost feels like a cultural attack designed to further stratify political sides and deepen tensions in a specific country? where the aesthetics and design are all intended to appeal to people from that country?

like imagine a US-funded game for the chinese audience set in china about how they need to rise up against the surveillance state, and whether they would find that deeply offensive, try to sanction us somehow, stop allowing our games to be released there

or a US-funded game about how islam is terrible and oppressive toward women, designed for release in the middle east

Dude, no.  

This is just an artsy adventure game dev that wanted to appeal to the wokies. There is no deep agenda beyond an old man thinking these is what the kids want. 

While I mock the dude because he is using government funds in his 3 or 4 video game, most artsy people appreciate government funding and is not a weird thing outside Anglo countries.

It's very easy to understand why this is the case for younger men. I mean, even "welcoming" spaces like era have threads bashing men on the basis of sex endorsed by staff. There's nowhere for young men to go be heard but the right.

It's much better for the resistance to come from within the country in the form of revolutionary resistance groups that adhere to leftist guerilla uprisings. These resistance groups tend to have much more gender equality and rely on the peasantry to overcome oppressive governments.

Indonesia, Colombia, Vietnam have all had revolutionary guerilla groups to counter right wing ideology, those right wing groups are usually propped up and funded by the west.

Check out The Jakarta Method, it's a great read.

Probably would take a miracle for this commie idiot to read anything detailing the atrocities commited by the FARC, ELN, Sandinistas of FSLN, and other left wing guerilla groups.  Kidnappings and hostage taking, Drug trafficking, massacres, human rights violations, extortion, destroying vital infrastructure, corruption and nepotism and centralizing power into authoritarianism, to say nothing of the extreme economic mismanagement of their retarded marxism philosophy.  These tankies live in the clouds.

Being fair, and with apologies to D3R3NG3D, there is an actual skin in the game given how close both Canada and Mexico are to the U.S., and in the case of Canada how some MAGAs are confusing Canada politics for the U.S.

But don’t fear US friends, you also have skin in the Mexican political game given how nutso and narco friendly the government party is in this moment.
