Lots of good lines in that show.

Xathras have hard life. Probably have hard death. But at least that way, there’s symmetry.

Once the avalanche has started, it is too late for the pebbles to vote.

Wow, that comic really fails to entertain in any way!

Yeah, for me it’s partly aesthetic preference but also I’m not inserting myself into the game. I’m controlling the character, not pretending I am the character.

Play a female character in an arcade game. Specifically the one in Golden Axe.

Plus a properly made one is fucking delicious

Yes, this. Refactor first to make the upcoming change easier and cleaner, not after. Don’t ask for permission, don’t even call it refactoring or cleanup. Just call it working on the feature, because that’s what it is. Don’t let non-engineers tell you how to engineer.

Yeah, agree. I don’t see many LLM results but I can’t say I never see any.

For context I played the first one on NES when it came out. I liked how the different games each felt imaginative and a little different yet familiar due to certain common themes. I liked the games where the battles felt more tactical, like X, XII, and of course Tactics. I really like the setting of Ivalice, couldn’t say why but the setting is just appealing. I don’t like the turn the series has taken lately. XVI was a shallow action game and an even shallower RPG with paper-thin characters acting out a superficial imitation of A Game Of Thrones. I was way more invested in the character arcs of the cast of characters in VI than in the forgettable cast of XVI.

This guy just rolled a natural 20 for Viscous Mockery

As I said, mileage may vary 😄

LLM got jokes! This had me in tears. Best AI response I’ve ever read hands down.

Mileage may vary; I read the first one and found it to be an absolute slog and a snooze. No interest in reading on.

Thank you for that explanation! I learned a few things about rape laws in France. What I knew before pertained to US and UK law.

Something I’ve learned from watching true crime shows is that it’s really hard to prove lack of consent

Not any language. I code professionally in F# which has semantic whitespace and it has literally never been an issue for me or my team. In contrast to Python, it’s a compiled language and the compiler is quite strict, so that probably helps.

They hated him because he spoke the truth

No, I haven’t watched any myself, just saw some in my recommendations

There are videos on YouTube of other designers doing detailed criticism of the character designs if you’re interested

I had to look his name up myself. 😄 I was going to post a picture of his punchable face, but seeing the whole cast, he didn’t even stand out all that much compared to the rest. They all look like a bunch of bad cosplayers.

Make it F2P but charge for cosmetics that completely rework the art style. Almost all the characters look insufferable and I particularly want to punch Lennox in the face every time I see him.
