If you want to protect your own sanity, do yourself a favour and mute “Wukong” on Twitter now.

Not because of the game, it looks pretty great, but because a very tired discourse is about to pop off.

I THINK it's related to this

I’d advise anyone to hold off on getting Black Myth: Wukong for console next week.

Distribution of review codes was pretty terrible, not one of them was on console and since they’re holding back the Xbox-version because they can’t get it to run properly, I have SERIOUS doubts about performance of the PS5-version as well. #BlackMythWukong #Wukong #reviews

It's almost as if the best games recently haven't been made by triple A studios who are worrying about boogiemen and ghosts

Just make a good game and people will enjoy it

Independent studios are doing a great job imo in showing what games can be

#

I feel like people who throw tantrums over things being "gender equal" probably isn't the audience that... actually plays the game

But that's just a theory

I think the most modern one was at least not bad

wasn't good but landed some stuff

I did read that the Birderlands movie was completely reshot in the last 2 weeks bc they wanted the movie to go in a complete opposite direction of the original premise.

small berry
#

that's always a great sign

night plume
#

It was rated R and had a different flow to the story, but they wanted it to be child friendly and it's own thing, and reshot it to make it so.

#

There is a chance the original footage followed the game and characters semi properly.

#

But, who the heck decides to put Krieg as a main character and says, "no blood, no killing, no death"???? The ENTIRE premise of that character was feeding people to his axe!

#

Or Tiny Tina? She is a psycho who blows people up at tea parties and all she does is makes fireworks? (this is from looki g at trailer footage)

Disney is as sue happy if not more than Nintendo

like they tried to sue busnesses for being named after norse gods?

and they not as much as nintendo

but mostly cause japanese copyright is a lot stricter than usa

night plume

I think Nintendo may be moreso now with how they have ramped up. But, Disney was pretty bad for a while.

heady light
#

nintendo where sueing people for youtube videos about their games a while back

#

disney mostly just do things like sue hospitals for pictures on their walls

#

both bad but atleast disney doesnt really go after individuals just organisations

If that's true, they're equally crap

heady light

i dont think they sued, i think the family asked and disney said no

full terrace
heady light
#

yeah, but that just sounds like normal corporate bs

#

the real bad thing about disney isnt the suing its the changes they lobbied for with copywrite law

#

that and the irony of most of their stuff being based on pubic domain stories

#

vs nintendo who will lawyer up if you think too hard about backing up your old gameboy cartridges because the batteries are probably going to die soon

#

but back to videogame adeptations, fallout was good

#

and theres been a bunch of great anime adaptations of visual novels

#

vut movies, idk of ove ever seen one that id call good

#

the live action mario move was great, but i wouldnt call it a good movie

#

the postal movie was exactly like i thought a movie adaptation of those games would be like, but again, wouldnt call it good

#

i guess theres an argument that the only good videogame movie adaptation is the pirates of the caribbean films, but they dont have guybrush threepwood in them so i dont count them as monkey island movies, even if they started off that way when the scripts where first being written

#

thats basicaly what happened with the dlc here;
they bloated it with a bunch of overpriced BGMs and Cosmetics to push the price up, then included an actual story DLC that people were after

small berry
#

"89% said AAA titles can be financially successful just by being Buy-to-Play."

small berry
#

they're always altering what their DLC has to scam you

tranquil obsidian
#

i remember when DLC used to be "we finished the game, but its so popular we came back to it to give you more"

#

now its "here's the stuff we didnt finish in time, pay us extra"

small berry

and some stuff modders have done better, but yeah, pay us

#

charging 20 bucks for some lines of text! Aw yeah!

Every sequel to games from 10 years ago only bring sorrow and depression

nooo not the egg

night plume
#

I bring eggs for breakfast at work and I find they transport better if I bring them still in the shell and crack them at work. (Too many times the containers magically have opened and spilled on the way to work....)

One day, one of the eggs rolled off the counter. Everyone in the breakroom stopped to make sure I was okay bc my routine was disrupted and a chunk of my breakfast was gone.
(Then a bunch of people came in to witness someone cleaning up after themselves bc no one believes that can be done sighed heavily remembering this part)

night plume
#

I asked a question at work to clarify something.
My work load has increased by a lot o.o

small berry
#

everyones work load has increased a lot, companies do more work with less workers

#

those workers still get paid the same, everything's lovely

#

Literally a company I work with is probably handling twice the work as last year, with a few less workers

#

miracles on the daily

night plume
#

On the bright side I have a lot of time to do the task, so I have that upside from the norm work load issue o.o

#

I was just not expecting my simple "yes or no" question to turn into "oh, we need to add that, and this" o.o

small berry
#

It's somehow puzzling to me that some companies are seeing they need less workers to do even more jobs but they don't think they should pay those workers more for handling more work

small berry
#

One the bright side, SwissPort as far as I've been told, did give its employees a 250euros bonus per month

#

which is like a 1/6 increase

#

I wonder, just like in war thunder forums with weaponry, are we doing the same with worker conditions?

#

should investigators just be scrolling discord to figure out frauds

#

One thing is for sure, either we risk getting fired for demanding a bonus or we're gonna be eating horse manure

#

The secret service should hire me, I get more info on the daily than many departments with dozens of employees, for some reason I've got a face that makes everyone tell me everything

night plume
#

People tell me I have a very trusting face. Don't really know what that means, but people trust me with a lot.

#

Heck, I've had a woman leave her children with me in an airport. Freaked me and the children out when we realized she was gone xD

small berry
#

She gifted you some kids or something?

night plume
# small berry Gone gone?

She took the opportunity to go to the restroom and stretch her legs. She came back. But, I was also a child at the time on a school trip xD

night plume
#

I was teaching the kids how to play children's card games while we waited for the plane to board (I had them get their mother's permission). They then called to board and I gathered up my stuff and the kids couldn't find her. My teacher was telling me to hurry up and I told him I couldn't just leave the kids there and they were begging me not to leave them there. She showed up within a couple minutes and apologized, but it dd cause us worry and my teacher was not happy at all.

small berry
#

That mom was having a hard day for sure

sick flame
night plume
#

What I got from the kids (that O can remember bc this was so long ago): they lived in the US, so she was a single mom in the US. They were going to the UK to visit their dad. I think he worked there, idk further details.

The kids were super well behaved for their ages. Especially on the plane. Only issue I had with them is the little boy didn't understand I wanted him to wipe the cheeto dist off his hands before he touched my cards xD ruined my cards lol.

small berry
#

you grab that stinky paw and wipe it

#

smh head

night plume
#

The kids begged to sit with me on the plane and didn't understand why we couldn't sit next to each other. That entire plane ride I wanted to ask the person next to those kids if I could swap seats with them xD
The people in my class were so boring x.x at least the kids would play cards or have a conversation

small berry
#

oof

night plume
#

I went on that school trip twice. The next year that same teacher embarrassed the carp out of me x.x

small berry
#

Teachers are masters at that

#

what was it?

night plume
#

We had an odd number of people. My last name being far down in the alphabet, my ticket put me seated with the stranger.

#

I completely understand the teacher needed to talk to them to make sure they were fine sitting next to me. I was seated next to a Muslim woman. He led the conversation with, "I need to make sure you aren't going to blow up my student" -.-"

small berry
#

Eh what

night plume

He thought that was an appropriate joke.

small berry
#

Jesus christ almighty

How can someone with such an absolute lack of social skills be in charge of kids

I think his partner got after him for it, at least I hope that is what that discussion was bc he needed it.

small berry
#

Something similar I was told happened at my work, we have to ask people stuff, our guy saw the passenger had "chinese traits", but born in the US, our guy thought it was the best idea to ask to please say something in Chinese and then argue how someone born in the US should speak Chinese ( just cause he has asian traits)

night plume
#

Met her on the second flight. We had to take a plane from home to another airport, then from their to the UK.

So met her at the other airport.
Think it was 2 years after thar trip I started college. Was buying lunch and a woman asked me if I went to the UK a couple years prior >.> she remembered me and we live in the same city xD

night plume
#

You and I meet some people

small berry
#

Yeah, literally that was his big elevator pitch, guy has Chinese in his surname, even if he's born in the US he has to speak Chinese, if he doesn't then that's not normal, right?

small berry
#

( even tho it totally is massive)

night plume
#

It was amazing to me that we met somewhere completely different, went to the same place, ultimately to find we live in the same city and go to the same school.

It kind of sucked "why" she so easily remembered me xD

100% someone that shouldn't be next to kids

#

Mrbeast friend type of vibes

He was a cool teacher, he just didn't realize there are things you shouldn't say or do bc to him words are words.

(now that I type that out, I am laughing bc he was an English teacher)

queen vale
#

Oh dear

small berry
#

Stone cold

night plume
#

Never had him as a teacher personally, my French teacher recommended me for the trip. I was sad when he left to go to a different school, but understood why when I got older. (Didn't realize how crappy being a teacher was when I was in school lol)

small berry
#

I mean, it depends on the school, at mine the issue was more that the teachers were crap, most of them, and sadly the ones that were good couldnt handle the class dynamic and kids bullied them

#

its like you had to be a crap teacher so kids respect you

night plume
#

Ooh, I have a funny one about a kid bully o.o

small berry
#

I'm gonna cook me a steak but go ahead and I'll be readin

night plume
#

There was this one math teacher at my school that almost everyone loved. If you were to take a math class, you wanted THIS teacher. This was the teacher that if you said, "I wann do this job after school, why should I learn this?" He would find a reason why that lesson was important to you.

Well, there was a girl in the class that didn't want to do anything. So every day, she would ask him why she needed to learn what he was teaching. But, she made it very clear to everyone in the class she was doing it to waste time. He would answer her, and she would make up another job, then another, then another. We, the class, would ask her to stop bc he gave us time at the end of class to do homework so we didn't have to do it at home and she didn't care.

One day, he finally snapped. He yelled at her and told her there were so many things he wanted to say to her but couldn't bc she was the student. He went to his desk and pulled out a picture, an old, old, old meme of a little boy flipping people off at a sports game and told her, "this is what I want to say to you."

Appalled, and happy, she got up and told him she was going to the principal and she left. At that moment, he realized he royally screwed up, sat at his desk just defeated before trying to continue the lesson.

Girl came back with the principal, and officials that idk what they were. They asked the class what happened, and we all told them: she was unruly, she kept yelling and disrupting the class, she was asked to leave and stormed out in a rage saying she was going to get the principal.

#

She was expelled for a few days bc of our testimony. She then transferred out of the class or the school, I just remember she was no longer in the class.

#

And yes, that is the abridged version. I am horrible at shrtening things

small berry
#

pretty concise

#

I'm glad that good teacher didnt get into trouble

#

I wish I had a math teacher like that

#

only good teachers we had were with english and that's literally what I had the easiest to improve on my own after school

#

one english teacher tho had a miscarriage cause of stress at school tho, that was kinda huge at the time and kids shrugged it off

night plume
#

That poor teacher....

small berry
#

Schools are literal purgatory

#

it's not the real world, unspeakable things happen there on the daily

#

if you're lucky and you get to enjoy school for the most part, appreciate it

night plume
#

I hear so many wish to go back to highschool and I alway reply, "I liked the structure, but I still don't want to go back"

small berry
#

I'd end up going mad real quick I assure you

#

I'd snap one day and just beat someone

night plume
#

I considered being a teacher a couple times, then I thought back on when I was in school and came to my senses.

small berry
#

as a personal challenge, living with a problematic family, lotsa screams and arguing, I would want to try it

#

but I know what I'd be facing

night plume
#

I was always confused in highschool as to why PE coaches as teachers got special treatment. Wasn't until after I graduated that I learned it was bc most were afraid to report them.

In my high school, if kids acted out, a lot of the PE coaches would become physical and attack students. There were some coaches that what they did was justified and made sense bc it was for the safety of everyone, but others it looked like they just liked hitting kids.

small berry
#

oof.

#

I remember our school had like 1 bully, teachers "allowed" it cause his dad died in his arms, it was a bizarre dynamic

#

for some reason they gave up entirely on controlling him, they were like, nah, he's too much, let him do what he pleases

night plume
#

Ah, so gave up on him instead of found him help.

small berry
#

I know, the kid now as an adult regrets his childhood maybe more than what happened to his dad

#

It's like, well done teachers, you've doubled his trauma

#

we all knew why he was doing it, it was pathetic

night plume
#

Basically, they lashed out bc they couldn't cope.

small berry
#

exactly, he hated every second of waking up

#

did everything in the book someone should stop you from doing when something like that happens to you as a kid

#

childhood, teenager years, completely deranged syndrome

night plume
#

Guess I'm lucky my brother and I didn't snap.

#

🤔You did just make me realize that the therapist I spoke to was far too literal xD

small berry
night plume
# small berry I mean, I bet that's standard procedure

I was seeing one when I was overly stressed and had asked if there were any groups I could consult in similar situations. I was a young adult that took custody of my siblings. I just wanted others in a similar situation to talk to, be it single parents, young adults who had kids too young, just others who we could all relate in some way. I think he took it literal and thought I wanted a group of others who took custody of their siblings bc he couldn't think of anything simikar lol.

# night plume I know someone who fell for the Nigerian prince email

My granny told me that person in the family needed money to unlock an account. She didn't really understand why the bank needed it or why the money was locked in Nigerian Prince bank. She wnated me to look up where this was.
I called my granny's bank, had my granny authorize me to speak on her behalf and told them, "Please freeze her account, I believe a family member has been involved in a scam and is using my grandmother's banking credentials for the scam."
The family member took a lot out of my granny's account b4 I froze it >.> I explained to my granny what was going on and asked her to please tell me the family member was not stupid enough to send money to the Nigerian Prince.... I was banished from that house for a while for laughing at them.

#

My granny's money was not recovered bc the family member withdrew it into and placed it into her own account. But hey, I kept her from continuously taking the money. No idea how many times she paid the prince xD

Miners have been profitable, it just seems like something isn't quite right this summer

Might be the constant threat of nuclear war

Even though I know what a crypto miner is, I still picture tiny dwarves mining the gold out of a circuit board in people's computers and running....

small berry
#

even if not true

#

tiny dwarves in some mine with motherboards on a rack trying to figure out the secrets of the universe

#

somehow

#

The logic goes, after a halving, miners sell stocks cause of their decreased rewards, which pushes the price down, then comes the fed, lowers rates and everything goes boom

#

but miners have been profitable

#

we just need the fed to open their mouths and do their damn job

night plume
#

I don't think anything you type about crypto is hard to follow, I believe I am just that disinterested in it that it that when I read what you say about it, my brain feels like it is locking up as if I'm reading a different language o.o

And I feel bad that I'm that disinterested bc you put so much detail that I feel I'd learn a lot from it.

I know, but to me, it is annoying to see a bunch of free knowledge, read it, and not retain a bit of it.

small berry
#

that makes me somehow appreciate the time I spent on it, I wanted to understand some of the macro of finance, it seemed and still is ancient egyptian to me but I can see a chart and read it

#

It puzzled me so much the whole technical analysis, drawing on a line on paper, I looked at it like a game I wanted to play, so I eventually did, no frustration or procrastinating, as a hobby

#

visually displaying data, incredible human invention

#

And it's not astrology, draw on a daily or weekly, even better a monthly chart and what you draw will be seriously useful stuff

#

most daytraders deal with 1 hour charts, maybe 4 hour charts, some crazy people do technical analysis on charts with shorter timeframes, the larger the timeframe, the more solid every indicator becomes

Unless you have some insider info you shouldn't? XD

but one or two to be fair, I do know a few inspiring people

Idk why, since I've had memory I've had this "old soul", I can't escape it, freaking girls at my school were afraid of me cause of that, thought I was too much for them was told several times

night plume
#

I felt more comfortable having the friends I enjoyed hanging out with come over to my house.
I had a lot of "friends" as a kid that were kind of assigned to me bc my siblings were friends with one of their siblings or my mom was friends with their parents. I usually hung out with the grandparents or the parent that wasn't a friend of my mom in those cases.

small berry

Hanging out with the adults - yeah, I would get old stories or asked to help doing stuff and learn things. Granted, the kid my age didn't really want me around bc I was boring xD

My thoughts on situations is that people can go through a similar event(s) and come out of it with similar views afterwards, but they may not experience the event(s) the same.
The 2 can understand each other, even though they may not have experienced it the same.

small berry
#

I personally always wanted to do what you did, never quite did it to that extent, but I somehow ended up also being considered boring cause of that shared interest

boring or too serious

small berry
# night plume 🤔 Don't remember this conversation xD

never shared it here I think, was "starting" to date a girl, she didnt quite know what she wanted, one of the things she mentioned that worried her was that she wasn't enough for me in bed, fascinating, could be a lie, but alas why say that

#

idk what she heard but I know people took me for more than what I was for that appearance of being mature

night plume
small berry
#

it's a fun story to tell, it's either flattering for me or just a quirky story

I think those who look or act more mature than what is considered appropriate for that age are usually singled out in different ways.

night plume
#

I remember friends telling other friends to stop inviting me to places bc I would give them the excuse that I had responsibilities after school. After a bit, only a few people chatted with me during school because they deemed it pointless to try.
Made school a lot easier too xD most of my friends lived down the road from me bc I was in one of those areas you could walk down the road. We all just chose a house on the weekends and played games lol. Only reason we all didn't talk in school was the older people graduated after my freshman year, and I was in my senior year when the rest joined their freshmen year xD age differences were a pain.

proximity is convenience

I should have dropped 70% of my friends and boosted the remaining 30%

# small berry blood family nowadays is as good as watered down wine

"The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb"
I think that is how the saying is written?
I love how it is used, shortening it to "blood is thicker than water" meaning family should come first when the original statement is about the bond you build, the family you make should come before "just bc we are related"

small berry
#

blood is the conductor for the strongest bonds you can make in your lifetime, that doesn't mean the bond is there from the get go

and that tends to hurt many families

# small berry you'll have a generation that literally grew together, followed by a generation ...

My family was tight knit for my granny's generation and I am, for lack of better term, the anchor for the grandchildren that made us tight knit.

A lot of stuff happened in our family and I became the outcast. I was told I needed to remedy that and I told the adults(my dad's age group with my granny included in it) "sure, I'll do that." I cut them all out and told all the grandchildren of the family they were still welcome over, my door is always open, and all the others(adults) have been barred, they were no longer family. Those left from my granny's generation cheered and came over as often as they could b4 age made it too hard for them. They were also outcasts in the family.

my cousin for instance was that anchor, the right age to be with the grandkids of the first gen and the second gen

#

second gen eventually completely broke off

#

It's the same dynamic at a different scale

#

there's various reasons for someone to become a generational anchor, but everyone has one

night plume
#

I became the anchor bc I enjoy cooking XD

small berry
#

many people have tiny families too, I think in large families, like 3+ brothers/sisters with kids, it tends to happen something of the sorts

#

If there's at least 10 years between each kid, there's a generational gap

Pretty sure I walked by a crazy cat lady at my work

small berry
#

how's there a cat lady at work

night plume
#

The smell

#

I hit the "L" and backspace lol

#

They went by b4 I could say anything, but I really, really hope that if I ever cannot smell my cats did something to my clothing, someone tells me so I can go home >.>

#

I have a mature lady at work that repeatedly keeps telling me I smell freaking awesome

#

so I guess I'm good on that

#

she wants the cologne I have for his husband or so she tells me, idk how to take that now that I'm typing it down

night plume
#

The cologne the person keeps spraying to mask that foul dish, I'd like a candle of it

#

I would take her asking about it as a compliment and a little strange. It is a compliment bc you pick something nice, but a little strange since they don't realize they are asking to have their husband smell like you xD

small berry
#

Mature lady wanting my cologne for his old husband, jesus christ

#

I can't escape it, I'm cursed

night plume
#

Not going to lie though, I would be weird and jokingly tell them not to think of me when their husband uses it xD

small berry
#

I've considered going into many rabbit holes, don't tempt me

It wouldn't be my first time I make someone grow horns

I hate myself

Only lost a few lines of work this time. If it reverted back again I was going home.

Hello guys and gals, it's me Mutahar again! This time we take a look at what appears to be a new AI image generator from X that has almost no guardrails imaginable. Without these safeguards people have been generating content that could absolutely land Elon Musk's company in hot legal waters and images that shouldn't even be suitable to generate...

She wanted to ask where I got my car, how to buy a car, how to meet people in the city bc she is fairly new, why are people so infriendly, she got a little racist but I am starting to believe all elderly are racist >.>, she wanted my email, she wanted my phone number (I declined both), she asked if I would go walking with her, what was fun to do around there.
She looked like a crazy homeless woman x.x

#

She said I was the most friendly person she has met while here and I was just trying to politely tell her it might be her approach, which resulted in her making the racist comments, so I gave up on that. I couldn't figure out how to politely tell her it might also be her appearance.

Do they feel more comfortable when cooked? Idk

#

I guess it depends if you're wearing them at the cooking time too

fringe raptor

True indeed. Wearing while cooking them doesn't sound like a good plan.

but at the same time, aim assist has always been a thing for consoles

small berry
#

they recommend disabling that sort of stuff to avoid "match interruptions" I love that they imply instant gratification for offenders

#

I mean, tbh, CS2 is already at this point the type of game that in 90% of matches someone leaves either team, if this makes it even worse it's gonna be painful

World of warships wanted to do a survey for my account, at 30% of the survey they start asking stuff that is not related to the game, as in my age, if I'm married or not, I instantly closed it, such a shameless study at the expense of the players

#

They should just pay for someone that already has made those market studies instead of trying to get their own data imho

#

I don't trust them using it responsibly

Is what it is. They’re always searching for more profits, because it’s not enough to make money, they must make more money. Hells, there was rumour of one game company wanting to put fucking ADVERTISEMENTS in their load screens ffs.

#

This is a fully paid game btw……

#

Think it was EA games that wanted to do it to thier FiFa titles.

#

Like fuck, we play games to NOT deal with that shit.
(Well, we also like shiny shit but that’s not the point, but I agree with Takuro, we need lovander plushie now).

"We calculate that with these changes we can monetize 80% of what the player sees"

^ this. He breaks it down pretty thoroughly

small berry
#

I'm ready to live the ready player one timeline

#

wait, there was a Matrix online

rapid marsh
#

Yes. There WAS (was, being the keyword).

#

MMO wars were a thing. WoW hit lightning in a bottle, other companies wanted to make the same money as world of Warcraft- queue lining up of other MMOs to be swiftly cut down.

small berry
#

and Blizzard was killing it with Warcraft too

#

and starcraft

rapid marsh
#

Well, blizzard nuked expectations with StarCraft, more than Warcraft. Warcraft they kinda goofed up with their terms and conditions which is how DotA? I think it’s DotA got started, and blizzard couldn’t get any cash outta it.

#

So they updated terms and conditions and dicked the map editors up.

#

They also hit with StarCraft 2 wings of liberty, then they fucked up by sacking blizzard north

#

RTS is a genre that’s been effectively sparse for at least 10 or so years with only the big mainstreams really playing tag with audiences.

#

Late 90s there were a bunch of C&C / AoE clones. KK’n’D being one of the most memorable for me (Aussie studio that’s no longer in existence thanks to the govt being dicks).

small berry
#

and DotA was one of the hundreds of amazing games it birthed

#

and they did get DotA2 with one of the original creators

#

oh nvm that's valve, big brainfart, Blizzard had heroes of the storm

rapid marsh
#

Well, by the time DotA 2 hit, blizzard couldn’t touch it as it was its own thing by then and no longer based on a mod.

small berry
#

exactly, they did try with heroes and it was a good spin but they were competing with league and dota2

rapid marsh
#

Heroes of the storm iirc became overwatch. Overwatch 2 being the big flop.

small berry
#

Heroes was pretty much deceased when they completely ditched it, they tried hard

#

and yeah, then it came Overwatch

#

I enjoyed that heroes focused more on teamwork than other mobas, I think it could have had a good future with enough work but there's no way they could compete with ultra individualistic mobas like LoL or Dota2

#

the moba craze we also pretty freaking massive

#

Waiting for Footmen frenzy to have a standalone game

#

4 teams, 3 players per side, each has a hero and a unit spawn building, they can either focus on buying items for their hero, upgrade the level of the units spawned or increase the stats of the units spawned, easy game loop
