My dad is adamant that fish don’t feel pain. He just heard it from someone when he was young, and accepted it as fact because it made him feel better as a fishing enthusiast.

From a team like this that actually cares more about the quality of their game than potential profits, “no ideas” doesn’t mean that they can’t think of anything at all, it means they can’t think of anything that would actually improve their game without feeling like it was tacked on, which was the point of my post; for a game that already feels complete, any ideas for more content would feel tacked on, including the ones in your meme. They might be good for future titles, but this book is already closed.

The reason BG3 was good was because instead of making a game with a large chunks withheld from the base game for the sake of future paid DLC, they instead just put everything in the game from the beginning. It’s a full-fledged experience already - tacking on more content when the story and gameplay are already complete would feel like a cash grab. The fact that so many people expect it just shows how cash grabs have become the norm to the point where people forgot that games used to be a full experience by default. A good game has enough content for it all to feel interesting without weighing itself down with more than it needs, and has enough characters to tell a complete story without feeling like things got padded out. What you want is a new game with as much care put in as BG3, not DLC that would just bloat the original with unnecessary content.

I always thought I was too ugly for people to be attracted to me. Eventually I cleaned myself up a bit, got on a dating app, and found the woman who is now my wife. I was proud of myself for becoming someone who could be attractive. Since then, 2 girls I knew in school have told me they had a crush on me… Like, why didn’t you say anything!? It was obvious I had no idea!! I now think everyone must have at least one person who’s yummed by their yuk.

I find that the tired part is easier to swallow if you instead think of it an a happy opportunity to put on some music and rest your eyes.

Yup, my plan was to just buy one and let it sit until something was found. It was just too expensive, though; I can’t warrant that price.

I was hoping it’d be a bit sooner, but I can’t complain; it looks great! I’m always down for more Digimon!

People who are capable of feeling guilt for hurting others would never do the terrible things required to achieve such a position anyway. It’s the way they make sure only people who are part of the in-group get that high on the ladder. At best, Elon sees us as insignificant specs that don’t even register in his brain. At worst, he hates us and actively enjoys making us suffer.
