Now that’s a bold and uninformed take.

Yeah, unfortunately I don’t really have a solution there :(

Y’all gotta try some Korean spas, they have them even in the US.

Those are super relaxing and luxurious.

First you shower, then you get REALLY clean by exfoliating your entire outer carapace, or paying someone to do it. You’re not properly exfoliated until you have flecks of your dead skin flying off.

Then you take a nice hot soak in a series of increasingly warmer hot baths.

Finish it off with a plunge in cold water.

Yes, there are other folks of the same gender. Nobody really cares, you just do your own thing.

Walk out to the lobby, hang out with friends and eat some freshly made Korean comfort food, feeling like a new person.

My friend took me to one after a long day at a theme park, and it’s changed everything, and now Korean spas are mandatory after each theme park. Instead of ending the day tired and sore, you’re relaxed, and generally feel rejuvenated. Ending the night quietly enjoying some snacks with friends feeling the cleanest you’ve ever felt, in a place designed to make you feel warm, comfortable, and safe, is incredible.

We were using Skype… Dark days.

How else do you get multi device sync?

My current solution is to use syncthing to handle syncing the files, but I have to debug a permissions error that pops up.

God, the custom tailored ideal American healthcare system, you’re right but I hate it lol

I was going to say, there were definitely horny games but you wouldn’t talk about them in the open.

Honestly genshin and honkai aren’t even that bad. You want a bad one, look at nikke. Ass and titties jiggle physics: the game.

It sounds like you’ve already got a curated list of games - what are a few standout multiplayer that you enjoy that meet your criteria?

I’ll start off - when knockout city, an excellent dodgeball “shooter” closed shop, the devs released the server hosting code so the community could still play

There were no citations to back up relatively unknown claims besides digging through the comments of a reddit mega thread.

If that counts as making a good argument to anyone, I envy their free time, or worry for their information hygiene.

I told you I don’t care to read any more comments from you, yet you persist. Weird.

Do you fancy yourself royalty dismissing their subjects? Lol. At once, my liege, I will be gone from your sight. Toodles!

You have been given the opportunity to find more info if that’s insufficient.

“Do your own research”, a line associated with the great and credible orators of the internet.

I think a compelling statement should be made with citations if it’s not a well known fact, especially when provided to a general community.

I don’t care enough about niche old game drama to chase down the facts myself if it involves going through the comments of an entire Reddit mega thread.

Does that resolve your proposed cognitive dissonance?

“why can’t you be like everyone else?”

Idk guess I just like to verify shit before picking up the pitchfork. My b.

I also made the 16% error lol, math is hard.

Yeah I realized the difference is unpacking the clickbait as opposed to providing a verifiable claim.

Ah that’s fair, lol.

I realized we’re talking about two different things, you’re saying that the post unpacks the clickbait, and I’m saying that there’s no documentation of price increases, which tbf isn’t OPs main point anyways.

Just to be clear, by “read the post” do you mean go through all the comments of the mega thread OP shared? That seems unreasonable as opposed to “OP could’ve been clearer”. I’ve read both OPs post as well as the jagex website linked by Reddit and neither have enough information to back up OPs claims without prior knowledge.

Is there a more summarized version then “all the reddit comments on a mega thread” anywhere? Because that is basically halfway to telling someone to “do your own research”. At least quote some specific comments that could be taken as secondary sources.

We’ve had to dilute clickbaity titles before, we’ve also been pissed off at clickbaity titles before. I’d rather that shit not be normalized, personally.

Ah, that would’ve been much better for OP to include as an example…

Oh.

I don’t think I care enough about drama in a niche game to do a deep dive on all of the reddit comments to learn about something…

It would be helpful if you or OP could provide links, or at least quote things. Most passerbys simply have better things to do than to find better context of what OP is saying about a game from 20 years ago. I think it’s only natural for people to be confused when OP didn’t provide enough context, or the only way to get context is to apparently read an entire Reddit threads worth of comments.

I feel like I’m missing something completely - maybe I do need to learn how to read. The only thing I’m seeing on the jagex page is new prices for a handful of currencies under “pricing table”, SEK is not one of them.

There’s no mention of past prices at all? Is there another link I’m not seeing?

EDIT: I think my main point is that as far as I can tell, you need to be an active member of the RuneScape community to know what the prices actually increased from, so “learn to read” wasn’t very helpful to casual passerbys, and OPs post could have some more clarity and examples of increased prices for those not already in the know. It was especially confusing that the only example they provided wasn’t an example of the 50% increase mentioned in the title.

This is a general games community so I think it’s fair to ask for some more context and leniency for such a niche game. If you want folks to care, don’t make it hard for them to do so.

So OP wrote a misleading description when saying the increase was from $12 to $14?

I don’t play RuneScape and I’m just going off of their description, which is inconsistent and the derogatory “just read lol” has so far shown to be wrong.

Wait hold on, how does an across the board increase from $12 USD to $14 USD result in 50% increase in price, “depending on currency”?

Isn’t currency conversion just a scalar multiplier that applies to both the $12 starting cost and the $14 new cost?
