Help Im Alive posted:Dragon Quest Builders is great. There's a demo you could try (which sold me on the game even though I'd never played DQ or Minecraft) Quoting from the past to say that I was also sold on DQ Builders via the demo despite never playing either franchise.

Quest For Glory II posted:He probably is just being an edgelord but there's so little difference in terms of impact that it doesn't really matter, it's really loving stupid of him to do Honestly, the difference between the edgelord "You should be able to just shout slurs and talk about Hitler!" is A) an actual political view, even if its whole supposed core involves the idea that comedy is apolitical and B) a viewpoint that seems to frequently lead to its proponents actually espousing the bigoted views in question, so the difference is p. academic

The cool thing about the witness is that there really isn't any required content, if anything doesn't seem fun you can just skip it.

Rexroom posted:I have feeling Pewdiepie is only channeling the stupid and crass memetic internet humor in his antics. I don't think he really is an anti-semitic nazi, it's more like OMG SO EDGIE 4 TEH LOLZ!!1 xD I thought that he was all about that type of joking, then grew up and toned it way down. I've never watched him and only the knowledge I have of him is just in passing topics, like this one. Lurdiak posted:People tell me Angry Joe is one of the woke ones, and the insane people who keep saying cuck seem to hate him, but I still refuse to click on any of his videos. but mostly because he sounds like he was riding the wave of "angry gamer man yells at lovely games" that was seemingly started by the Angry Video Game Nerd. I admit, I'm talking completely out of my rear end though

Ciaphas posted:Spent all day wanting to get home and play Invisible Inc, then I got home and... didn't Maybe you should try going to bed earlier, and have more energy to actually do fun things during the day. It's very easy to ignore how tired you are if you just sit around, but if your body and mind need rest, you won't have the energy to do anything interesting.

The worst for me is the trinity of PTSD leading to lots of excessive panic, generalized anxiety causing lots of extra stress, and major depressive disorder bringing on feelings of helplessness so it's like this combination of uselessness, helplessness, despair, panic, desperately attempting to shut my brain off, and then just kind of going numb and zoning out and letting my mind disappear elsewhere so I can just stop thinking for a while.

I'm sure the awful people are busy trying to poison it like they did social justice, feminist, and countless others though.

Ugh, that sucks. And, it is February, the worst month when it comes to everything - everyone I know is tired, depressive, or sick. March'll be better, though! And to keep this game related: I'm gonna play some Stellaris soon as it's very, very chill and good for relaxing while I play, especially if I don't speed it up. It's fun watching my scientists toodle around star systems studying things, and managing my pops.

I know how you feel, my dude. It's rough. Usually when I feel that way I lay in bed and play a good videogame or watch a let's play to distract myself. As it turns out, video games are a great coping mechanism!

Probably has to do with possibly having thyroid cancer in my case, they're taking the whole shebang out in a couple months In theory though my thyroid being broke would explain an awful lot about my health according to my doctors so even if it turns out the bumps are benign losing the thing could be a net win anyway????? Well except for being in a hospital for 24 hours, noooooo
