the summer is like well what if it was unbearable outside and you can't wear any cool jackets. and everyone's going to tell you that this is the best time of the year. and you're the crazy one
Hey kid, sorry I killed your dad with a huge sword. The cycle of violence is super fucked up isn't it. Hopefully it can stop with you.
I learn war so my children may study art. They're gonna make art of how badass it was when I killed your dad.
I know it might be hard to understand, but if it helps, your dad told me the exact same thing when I was your age.
gonna try and play Signalis even though I am traditionally a giant baby when it comes to horror games and movies, wish me luck
Success! I managed to play and beat Signalis! (with combat set to casual and the brightness turned up a bit, leave me alone I did it, okay)
Dang, that’s a good game.
I couldn't beat it, not because I was scared per se but because I got stuck and was getting mildly frustrated with the inventory size. But I'm def gonna return to it because the vibes were IMMACULATE
Apparently an update just came out for PC (and will come to consoles at some point) that gives you settings to expand the inventory limit and lets the photo and flashlight modules not take an inventory slot. I was playing on xbox so I did it with the normal six slots, but I will 100% be using the options on any replays I do later.

Man I know I'm bitching about this a lot but I think the complete degradation of the satire and edge of the fallout series over time makes me so mad. The first game literally has an occupying American soldier shooting a Canadian protester dead right there in the opening to let you know the game's stance towards the military and the US as a whole; it's a biting attack on the jingoistic, war-and-profit loving country the US was, rooted in reality. It immediately forces the player to recognize the US (especially in this setting) were not heroic, patriotic do-gooders, but violent, colonizing bastards who blew up the world over chasing a white-picket-fence dream. "War never changes" is about the futile nature of war, the repeating cycles of violence and corruption, the very principles of fighting your fellow man never changing over time. It is always abhorrent, it is always messy, it is always reprehensible, and it is always done for the self interest of the elite in some way. Men do not die for their country, they simply die. Contrasting that with the opening of Fallout 4, which seems to idolize the military and pre-war America, is fucking baffling. You have those white picket fences, those perfect nuclear families, and "war never changes" is stretched like an Animorph cover from a harsh condemnation of the violent cycles the world is put through to a patriotic, watered down idea that war is inevitable and so are heroes. There's no fucking edge to how Fallout 4 remembers the country that ended the world; it gleefully eats up the Americana iconography, sanding down every edge that could make the player even consider that the US in the world of Fallout is meant to be our US taken to a logical extreme, instead revelling in patriotic clothes and ideals and icons while the entire basis of the franchise was built on satirizing and critiquing that exact blind patriotism. It drives me insane that these two completely ideologically different games are under the same roof and that one of them fell for the exact propaganda the first game was satirizing in the first place.

Who would you vote for killing in FFXIV personally I'd go with Thancred or Urianger both have kinda already run their course as characters to me.

Thancred or Urianger are the obvious choices. This team could do with fewer white dads

No, I agree. They're baited it for long enough, it's time to deliver.
