A year or two ago I tried using it for Bnet and Diablo 2 but it had a lot of issues… I’ll have to give it another try

A lot of Balatro, lol. I wish it was on mobile, though…

I just modded my Switch, and tomorrow I’m gonna try to get Breath of the Wild / Tears of the Kingdom dumped and working on my Deck

Why are you showing me a circle

It’s not really a feeling of being in the wrong body, at least for most people. It’s about what makes you feel comfortable and what gives you confidence.

For me, what makes me feel comfortable and confident is training my voice, wearing more feminine clothes, painting my nails, doing my hair… Being pretty is what I want for me, and what “made me make the switch” was accepting that repressing that part of me isn’t good and won’t make me happy.

Reddit hasn’t felt the same for me since around 2021/22.

At some point it stopped being a platform for niche communities to come together and became a cesspool of corporate/government astroturfing and karma farm bots with a side of real people.

I didn’t say it did affect me or that I’m against it. I’m just saying the problem people are having already has a solution, it’s just not as simple as 1 button.

There already is an “easy mode”. It’s an RPG, you can just over-level yourself and max out your weapon upgrades if it’s too hard. If that’s not enough you can summon two whole players to do the fighting for you.

To prep for the DLC I made a new character, beelined it to my favorite spot to grind runes, and with my character at level 100 I just went through the world 1/2-shotting all the mobs. Then for all the bosses I couldn’t kill in a handful of shots I just summoned two people to help. It does take patience but you can make the base game an absolute cakewalk.

Getting good is what the games are about. There is no post-“git gud” phase of playing their games.

We’ve been able to do this for years, way before the fill tool utilized AI. I don’t see why it should be slapped with a label that makes it sound like the whole image was generated by AI.

What do you mean by real

You’re a god amongst men around these parts.

I don’t think…, I think…

Yeah, here you go: https://slrpnk.net/comment/9178525

Common anti-consumer move by huge companies against the consumers who made them rich. What’s new?

Eden mentioned

As fun as it is to dunk on theists, this brand of Christianity is far from common, let alone representative of Christianity.

Rest in piss, Jack Chick, you miserable dirtbag.

I’d be more open to the idea if it were made by literally anyone else and was an entirely local process

I love this. I’ve never heard of or seen it before, but now I want to

I don’t get enjoyment from a tragic event occurring. And I disagree with your definition of morbid curiosity.

If you actually read what I wrote, you’ll see that I’m saying I enjoy being scared, not watching people die. The whole point of the “Roy” thing is that nobody is ever actually in danger. What I’m wanting is an artificial way to experience things like that, which would satiate my curiosity, morbid and otherwise, and gives me the nightmare experience at the same time.

Thanks for the recommendations ;3

The Roy thing is maybe pushing a little into weird.

That’s good to know lol. And tbf it is probably a shortsighted desire considering the potential psychological damage.

It’s just that the nightmares I’ve had where I’m facing inevitable death have been super interesting to me in retrospect, so I figure something akin to Roy would just be that but I have full control over my mind and body.

I guess maybe I’d view your desire as those kids on Tiktok that were mimicking/cosplaying mental illness, autism, & Tourettes syndrome

I don’t use TikTok but when I was in grade school I’d see other kids do this, and yeah it’s pretty cringe worthy. I think we’re on the same page there.

And I definitely don’t want PTSD. Sorry if it came across that way. But I think I see what you’re saying, and maybe I’m overestimating my mental fortitude. I guess I figured I’d be able to adequately process it if I realized afterwards that none of it was real.

It really stems from curiosity about the facts. But when that curiosity turns to morbid curiosity, a lot of my questions can’t be answered, so it seems to me that the only way to satiate that curiosity is to artificially experience the event first hand through something akin to Rick and Morty’s Roy game. But obviously that’s impossible, so all I have is my imagination.
