Not sure why this is so downvoted , it's an interesting question.

There are many things that made us shoot forward in the evolutionary arm race, but one the parts is the sharing of knowledge and values to our offspring.

Children want to learn from their parents, and parents want to teach their children in the same way they learnt from their parents.

The early humans who started this generational knowledge sharing fared better, and humans became more social and dependent on each other, while the humans focused on themselves more than their offspring perished.

It's in our nature to care for our next generation, in the same way the previous generation cared for us.

Idk man, the beheadings, crucifictions and other genocide in Ukraine seems quite distasteful too

Americans are better at following the laws of war, but are also more efficient at waging war.

I think it's due to people assuming there are tradeoffs for being sustainable, and if I buy a product that isn't focused on being sustainable for the same price then I'll get a better product.

Imagine proving a joke this hard.

I know some clients show that, but the culture here is generally quite against the concept. Tends to lead to people being scared of going against the majority and creates a hive mind mentality to keep karma high.

I'd say it's slightly easier, but you should remember that avoiding combat is not only an option but sometimes recommended.

Edit. Also remember that when you get the opertunity to practice spar, do it. You don't just train your ingame character but also yourself.

Can relate to the devils advocate, though I tend to try to argue on points that I actually agree with so the other party actually has to reflect on their opinions

How come there are so few racing games coming out lately? Feels like it's just codemasters doing their thing, some struggling indie games and a truckload of shovelware. I'm not saying it's dead but wasn't racing games one of the primary genres?

Another thing that bugs me with the few games that come out is the lack of progression and immersion. NFS Unbound impressed me slightly with actually starting you out with a low spec car and having slow (by modern standards) progression. However halfway through when you have fast and "cool" cars you really felt the games mediocrity.

Dirt rally 1 and 2 has economy systems, but after a single championship you can basically buy whatever car you want. The rallies are immersive but everything between is just boring menues.

Why do you think the state of racing games is so poor? The industry being shit? Audiences not playing them anymore?

NATO apologism (lemmy.world)
 

Incase anyone tells you that lemmy.ml is not a tankie instance.

 

It feels like new games are just more of the same, with no real meaning. However I recently started playing "Return of the Obra Dihn" and love open ended deduction in it. It feels like I'm actually figuring things out by myself without being handheld through it. Are there any other games that don't coddle the player that you guys recommend?

The Paradox DLC model is good (self.unpopularopinion)
 

The games they release are complete in them selves, and with 15-20€ dlces every ~6 months they keep the games fresh with new content.

People rarely complain that features are missing from their games until it gets added in a DLC. Then suddenly it's a mandatory feature.

 

Personally I have three accounts. This is my main, but I have a reserve for stuff and one for my local region/language. What about you?

 

Personally never had a problem with Victoria 3. A bit buggy on release but nothing game breaking

Do you have some minor life advice? (self.casualconversation)
 

Mine is to to keep chocolate in the fridge. It's a lot crunchier and has more chocolate taste.
