🎵 Straight outta Mordor, four more wizards come to your door

Don’t step to us, cause we the number one sorcerers

Pour more of that maiden-bangin potion

Pop the dragon into three legged motion, now we coastin🎵

I just stop breathing. If my dumbass lungs wanna live they can start pulling their weight

I know it’s wrong, but I can’t help but be upset by the individual xp. Either I get jealous when my friends level up three hours before I do, or I feel guilty having a level on them for three hours. That shit does not fly at most tables, why would they think to include it in this game? Why isn’t there an option to share xp???

A chance to post that meme I made!

“Let me put it to you this way, Tav. You can buy better games than Solasta, but I like Solasta. Yes, it has a linear story, and the voice acting is rather stiff, and you can’t multiclass, but–it’s brilliant!”

I don’t actually know that I would say BG3’s story is undeniably better. It’s more polished, sure, and it’s more open-ended, but that doesn’t necessarily make it better. Granted I’m not done with it yet so I can’t say for sure, but I really like Solasta’s story, especially the second campaign.

I think there’s also something to be said about having four fully voiced player-made protagonists instead of one silent protagonist and a ton of NPC companions. There are scenes made up entirely of your party talking to each other. Which like, yeah, BG3 has that too, but Astarion and Shadowheart aren’t mine. Nora and Crag were. The writing isn’t as tight, the voice acting is relatively amateurish, but I like it.

I think better communication about what federation is would help. I keep seeing folks say it’s like email, but that assumes the average person understands how email works.

We should start describing it as “like if Reddit, Digg, and Hacker News could see and comment on each other’s content”

I don’t see how you disagreed with anything I said. What good would it do (aside from you enjoying the man’s content more) for Jazza to disown his brother, rather than continue to be in his life and try to be a positive influence? Would Shad become a better person because of it? Of course not.

“Plenty of family members publicly denounce their siblings when they start the descent into shitdom.” Is that good? Does it make the world a better place? Or does it only serve to improve how much you enjoy consuming their content?

“Guilty by association?” Guilty of what? This toxic mindset of suggesting that people need to cut all contact with the ones they love because of differing political opinions doesn’t help anyone. I would bet my life that not one single, solitary, individual alt-right shithead has ever changed his ways because his siblings publicly decried him. All that does is push people further into their echo chambers.

On the contrary, embracing the awful people in the world leads to positive change within them. The only reason you might think it’s good to disown bad people is if you think they don’t deserve to become better, and the world is somehow better off if they remain bad.

+1 for ADB. Online tutorials are dead simple to follow. De-facebooking my phone and killing Bixby are the two things that made me decide not to trade this in for an old Razer Phone instead.

Disowning your siblings for different political opinions only serves to remove a positive influence from their life. No good would come from Jazza publicly dunking on his brother’s beliefs.

Absolutely adore the man. It’s worth watching the entire talk. I think it’s particularly fascinating how much effort he has to put into explaining the feeling of magnets repelling. It’s hard to say “magnets feel like magnets feel because that’s what magnets feel like” and make it a satisfying answer.
