    Not inaccurate, if it’s analogous to preemptively defending or disclaiming something about whatever point you’re trying to make, trying to avoid the downvotes and questioning that follow if you offend or confuse too many redditors.


  • He’s claiming Twitter is more or less “hardcore” and requires a certain level of mental fortitude to stick with. Instagram much less so.

    I don’t know how Bloodborne compares to Dark Souls, so I don’t get what he thinks the distinction is there.



  • “Mushy peas are dried marrowfat peas which are first soaked overnight in water with baking soda, and then rinsed in fresh water, after which the peas are gathered in a saucepan, covered with water, and brought to a boil, and then simmered until the peas are softened. The mush is seasoned with salt and pepper.”

    So that’s not more or less how they’re made for a chippy?








  • Yeah this new stock of devs just don’t have it in them to deliver anything great. Their values and language likely prevent them from even considering something more visceral. Wouldn’t be surprised if most of them have lived such uninteresting lives they have nothing to draw from. That’s at least what they write like.

    Seems they don’t know why their hero kills, they don’t believe in the culling the player enacts. They’d probably rather he didn’t.

    They seem like they’d prefer to make Animal Crossing in space, they don’t really want to write about empire, conquest, terrible crimes, deep-seated hate. Ending threats.

    They don’t even want to know how the tools of the trade work. Just look at the animations for the models, you can tell that whoever worked on then feared being put on an FBI watchlist if they looked up a video on how pump action shotguns work.

    These kinds of dev teams are fully incapable of writing good villains and a cast of characters with wildly different moralities that are grounded in something real.

    They’re not interested in combat games. They shouldn’t touch them. They should leave and make room for those who want to.
