ngl I'm not a fan of fem focused gacha games, but I checked this game out bc of this art style and wolverine has enchanted me

Its lad game is 10,000% weak and they could def do better, but then I'm just that hungry for muscle lasses and weirdly-touching stories about statues coming to life to murder everyone

savin me is iconic and it's time to stop pretending like it isn't
I never understood the nickelback hate tbh

It was trendy and/or people copying Canadians to be cool, take your pick

We hated them because most non-American countries have radio quota laws, where X% of the music played must be from a domestic artist.

You get three guesses what country Nickelback is from and therefore what band rock stations here positively spammed to meet quota instead of actually finding different artists.

Hi hello I have direct experience relating to this!

Previous forum I was on, I pushed for us to adapt our FC claims list into a shareable format. It was a little drop-down field right on your profile you could change any time for whether the FC was Open, Ask, or Closed, and it plugged directly into the claims as a green, yellow, or red icon.

I don't have the exact numbers in front of me now, but it worked out to something like 40% wanted a closed, totally unshareable FC, 35% listed as Ask and just wanted to know who all was using it and/or had stipulations about only sharing alternates or something like that to discuss directly, and the last 25% were full Open, do w/e you want.

Not quite an even 33%/33%/33%, but it was still pretty refreshing to see how many people were actually open to some kind of sharing!

I'm also currently running a board with full Open FCs and no claims list at all, because norly why's that a thing we even gotta worry about? I haven't heard any complaints yet but I also cater to a very particular type of player who knows to not get attached in the first place. On the contrary, because of this design, we have a character subscribing to the fabled Identical Quintuplets school of D&D thought.

IMO, it's another type of fun we're constantly closing ourselves off to because people in the community have leaned too far into Writing As Prestigeโ„ข and forgotten our roots as a bunch of silly nerds doing stupid things because it's funny.

My favourite thing about Beidou is she activates that same Immortal Dumbassery part of the brain that Charge blades and (gun)Lances do

Like you'll just start intentionally standing in stupid shit because "It's k, I'mma block it"

i can't believe baldur's gate 3 singlehandedly took out the rpc

BG3 for 95% of the work, Fontaine to swoop in the final 5 and take full credit

The twin brothers who personified Dragon Age's mage-templar conflict

The pessimistic one who escaped and grew up in hiding, forever looking over his shoulder for the day he'd be dragged back and caged for the crime of being born wrong, and dedicating all the moments inbetween to tearing down the Tower still holding his brother

The other who grew up inside the system, who saw firsthand how magic could be dangerous - that his brother was dangerous - and yet for it all, still held the optimism to change it for the better without just invoking a bloodcost too great to keep them fettered

And then #2 is literally every plot where I expected my character to die by the end, lmao

I guess I just like my dramatically tragic story arcs like that ยฏ\_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ
