No that’s the Rubicon. Rubric is the guy who directed The Shining

Oh wow I remember loving their work when I was on Twitter. The atmosphere with all of their pieces are so cool and unique. Shame all of their work seems basically impossible to look at without making a Twitter account 😕

Changing the url to sh.reddit.com lets you get around it. Been using that when I’ve needed to look up a reddit thread at work.

I do this too. Instead of minis, I tape a drawing onto a Starburst and whoever kills the monster gets to eat the Starburst. I’m gonna have to get something like a donut for the boss fight at the end of the adventure I’m running rn.

The app Alarmy saved my ass on this. You can set it so you have to do stuff like math problems in order to shut off the alarm.

Though eventually I just started getting really good at doing math while half asleep.

You may still dislike it now, but I’d recommend giving it another chance. I replayed it last year and now it feels like a stripped down version of God Of War 4(and maybe Ragnarok too but I haven’t played). Valravn was rough for sure though, cant blame you getting frustrated. I remember stopping there the very first time I played, it took a break of a few months before I came back and finished the whole thing.

The term you’re looking for is cisgender. Trans = “on the other side of”, cis = “on this side of”

We can clown on the dude without using that kind of language in a demeaning way.

Absolutely, there’s a lot of stories that would have been better received as their own original IPs. Unfortunately, it’s a lot safer to make a sequel so you can count on sales from the pre-established fanbase. Another good example I always go to is the Thief video games, where I got my username. The reboot dramatically changed all the mechanics and ditched a lot of what made the first games so engaging, very little aside from a few proper nouns has any resemblance to the original. It could have been a decent stealth game if it sold itself on its own merits(it certainly wasn’t terrible) but as a Thief game, it justifiably got fans upset.

It could have been an acceptably decent movie if it wasn’t trying to be part of the GitS franchise. As a GitS fan I hated it, but I wonder if it could have been more fun to watch if I was unfamiliar with the series. I remember thinking the same with a lot of movies based on books I hadn’t read like Percy Jackson, the movie became a lot worse after reading the source material.

God Thi4f is an obscure pull but with my username I obviously feel the pain on that one.

Oh so Señor Chang in the D&D episode of Community.

what if the world was made of pudding

I’m not really sure what part of your comment was an opinion, but “people don’t start punk bands anymore” is simply not true. There’s plenty of new punk acts out there, the genre didn’t just come to an abrupt halt in 1990. Just off the top of my head is IDLES and The Chats, but you can find tons of recent bands if you look.

Of course once I post a comment about it it starts working lol. Not sure what happened. Edit: actually I realize I was trying to log in on my work wifi. Maybe VPN had something to do with it?

Huh, somehow completely blew past my radar. Thanks for the info!

Is that what happened? I occasionally check reddit at work since it’s unfortunately still one of the better places for actual answers to things, and in the last few days I’ve needed to use old.reddit.com to get around getting blocked. VPN block explains a lot.

I gotchu

Bummed out to not get any more news on Death Stranding 2, I’d been looking forward to it for weeks. But this teaser is really intriguing, gave a lot of things for me and my friends to speculate on.

That greentext has singlehandedly stopped me from fully hating AI, it still makes me crack a smile to this day.
