If you make every game for everyone, you make slop

I don’t care if you can enjoy it without putting the effort I put in. I just don’t want a way for myself to make it easier. That’s it.

Fuck off, this is a masterpiece and I love it so much I’ve developed a new callous on my thumb and had to take a day off. I’ve overcome every challenge, I’ve dealt with the frustration, and victory was all the sweeter for that.

I don’t care what you do or don’t enjoy, don’t fuck with my game. I don’t care if you watch a playthrough or mod the game so you can enjoy the story.

I’m not being elitist, I’m pissed because people are trying to ruin the masterfully crafted artistic vision of the best game I’ve played in years

This game isn’t made for them, it’s made for me. It’s the full package, it’s amazingly well balanced, and truly a lovingly crafted work of art

If you want to mod the game to make it easier, I have no problem with you, or people who use it

But I don’t want a win button in my wonderfully challenging game. I don’t want this to be ruined with temptation. That’s what would cheapen the experience

More like gaydar but for Nazis lol

Again, we’re not all on the brink of becoming fascists. The problem with profiling is what you do with it

It’s making light of murder in broad daylight, possibly also implying that Kirk deserved it

Which, no matter how you slice it, is way too spicy for professional settings. Most people were scared by both events, not because they know of or care about the victims, but because the media talks about it in a scary voice

That’s very different, making fun of the dead is way less socially acceptable than calling white supremacists bad people

In this case I think that’s pretty funny, but that’s still a spicy joke

I don’t mean literal phrenology with skull shapes and such, but rather that your personality and values shape your appearance

Nazis are going to Nazi, it’s not a coherent set of beliefs you can accidentally reason yourself into

I’m becoming a believer in phrenology. Now that they’re going mask off, suddenly judging people by appearance is getting pretty accurate

What really convinced me is seeing the faces of the cabinet melt over the course of weeks. The evil manifests on their faces like the dark side, most of them sag, but a few like JD Vance and Mike Johnson have glowing eyes

Right? It’s the bulging eyes that gives it away, but the proportions of his face are also pug like. Even the way he stares into space when he’s not the one speaking, then suddenly snaps into his yippy whiney shouting…

If anything she won’t win because she doesn’t know how to act like the main character. She should be the spiritual leader of the Democratic party right now, and she easily could be by picking a fight with Schumer

When he passed the funding bill, he basically guaranteed the death of the party as it is. It’s historically unpopular, everyone hates them and what they stand for - including their base

Solidarity means an end to your political career right now, people are very clear in what they want. If she had the sauce to be a leader, she wouldn’t be waiting her turn… She’d already be leading

Only if you’re in the media

Well the judge threw it out at lightspeed, that’s something

20 minutes of challenge becomes 5 minutes of chores becomes 2 minutes to blaze through flawlessly once you get it down

And it breaks you out of the headspace. You can’t just dive back in, every attempt has weight, even if not much

Also most people who complain about this seem to not understand that this is not random, these are well thought out design decisions. If it feels impossibly hard to just get to the boss, there’s probably an easier way. There’s tons of shortcuts, there’s often an easier route to another bench, and when there isn’t the boss is probably an easy one when you’re not anxious about having to repeat the section

Plus, platforming is a huge aspect of the challenge in itself. Sure, it’s annoying chores now, but what happens when you need near perfect movement for long stretches with no platforms to rest on?

It will! That one took me a while too, but it opens up a lot

They are demonic. The business practices are pure evil… And the dolls themselves are unsettling, like a furbee or something, but that’s neither here nor there

Let me fill up the negative space in that comment…I want Silksong to be hard. I want to do things dozens of times before succeeding, I want to struggle then overcome

It’s all skill based. You get better, your character gives you more breathing room, but ultimately you have to learn and overcome each new challenge

And that feels amazing, it’s not for everyone but I don’t want a way to make it easier… It would cheapen the experience to even have the option

Is cup head comparable? It looks really floaty

The gate was coming right at him, it was self defense

Researchers… What of what? Psychohistory?

I get some of the older ones, they had some pseudoscience behind them, I get how someone could get confused

But at this point they just seem like a death cult

Because you can go through your whole life with zero negative social corrections. It’s a low trust, collapse of society thing
