Ahh so when they have like inconsistent durability?

One scene the super hero slams through walls.

Next scene, they trip and get injured.

I wonder if movies is why people seem to scoff at my mom’s allergies. She is “deathly” allergic to Cilantro and Coriander, so more than once people told her stuff like “Don’t worry just eat around it” or “we’ll put it on the side”

MAM. Her throat is closing, we are sticking an epi pen, and heading to the hospital if any gets in her mouth. If you can’t accommodate her, let her know and we will leave. But it’s severe enough that if a lot of fresh cilantro is being used, she has to leave or she’ll start having symptoms. Basically if you can clearly smell cilantro, then enough is in the air that she’s going to start coughing and wheezing and normally takes 2-3 days of her feeling garbage. Same exact case for my sister who is deathly allergic to red onions.

I never understood why some people think so little of “My throat will close if I eat this thing”, but maybe it’s TV where they treat it like lactose intolerance, where it’s fine if you just take the meds with it?

IDK man, but it’s tilting.

They wanted to hack faster, so they both started typing at once!

The logic in that TV show would be parody if all they did was have a single character look super confused whenever one of their pseudoscientific plans work flawlessly and is held up in court.

I’m just the ultimate Lemmy Meme lord!

My most upvoted one is this one though:

But yeah it’s always cool when we get so much engagement and every comment is actually unique and not a report bot!

“Or any monster chase or fight. If a giant monster chases you it’s faster and instant-kills you. But not in movies.”

Monster: struggles to catch a running humans

Monster in next scene: catching up with a car pretty easily

Speed always kills me in things.

Plot twist= It started at 8PM and ended at 3 pm.

That always killed me! Like… bro, a soft breeze should take him out. He’s not ready to be a villain, he’s ready to spend 5+ years in rehab.

I’d love if in one of those shows it’s just implied lightly throughout the entire thing that they are squatting in the home of someone who died and the city never noticed or something stupid like that XD

I guess that’s what I’ve been doing, but I just never seem to find things fast enough so spend so long bored between. So guess I either need to learn to find things that are interesting faster, or spread them out.

Ooh good point.

Thinking on which games I’ve been able to come back to consistently, are ones with lots of replay value or are designed to make new runs.

Like Stellaris, you start over all the time for different experiencs.

100 hour rpgs where every play through is identical? Never been able to replay those.

I actually just watched that video!

And yeah I’m basically wondering if I need to force myself to try and order different things off it to try to keep myself from burning things I like.

I mean lots of things are ADHD things, that alone are completely normal! It’s usually the combination or severity of things that lead to something being considered that needs treatment.

If you find that you are struggling to take care of responsibilities or enjoy life, I always suggest talking to doctor/counselors. Could be ADHD, could be need coping mechanism, could be something else. IDK. But life should be enjoyed and doing adult responsibilities shouldn’t feel like ripping out finger nails (so I’ve been told)

Haha yeah that’s how I am most of the time. But occasionally I get the FOCUS on a thing and feel the urge to finish the thing RIGHT NOW.

Sooo my room mate invited me to play Total War Warhammer 2 with him (RTS game based on fantasy warhammer). It was his all time favorite game, and I had played it a bit. Think 2k hours for him, 100ish for me. But I had mostly been playing the Vampire Counts, and he jumped around a lot, mostly playing the Empire as he loved their lore and how they played. Him picking the empire was kind of a dick move because they spawned very close to vampire counts, so odds were he was going to crush me mid game.

But the thing is, he had mostly played against AI, and he had never played AS the vampire counts. If you ever play as the vampire counts in that game, you quickly realize there is only one good strategy, one that the AI never uses. You can get completely free skeleton soldiers. The game normally hard caps you with negatives around 2k soldiers (2-3 full armies). They aren’t great soldiers, but you can do upgrades for them to make them acceptable, and they mostly will function as meat sponges to bog down enemies while your generals do most of the killing. It’s not something I looked up, it’s just super obvious when you play as them that there is no purpose to any other units.

On turn 25 he thought something was wrong when he saw 5 armies attack a neighbor of his. He knew something was terribly wrong when 10 entered his territory at a point in the game when he had 2 1/2. There was shouting, there were accusations, there was mad giggling. As my room mate was thrusted full force into the zombie apocalypse. His soldiers killed thousands of skeletons, early game heavy infantry backed by mortars and arbalesters. The K/D was terrible for me. He had been focusing on building the bones of an unstoppable late gate death ball of heavy infantry and artillery, so his units were strong. But it still needed 30 turns to be invincible. But I kept winning, because his units ran out of bullets and mortar shells before I ran out of skeletons.

Then the fun thing about Vampire counts is, if you win a MASSIVE battle with tens of thousands of deaths… you can instantly recruit skeletons from that grave site! With each battle my army replenished, my generals grew more powerful, and he grew more annoyed.

After another bloody defeat of his final army, killing like 7k skeletons just to see mine raise from the dead, and his capital under siege, he resigned.

Despite his thousands of hours he said it was equally the most fun and most tilting game ever. But I just felt like I was playing lore accurate necromancers :D But when he was like “You must be cheating the game must stop this some how” and I’m just like… nah fam, game busted. I did feel a little bad. Then went back to giggling when he insisted he could win and then all his units ran out of ammo again.

So would you say my description is accurate? Due to lack of documentation I’m mostly hoping to make sure I’m not completely misunderstanding

An article with actual examples instead of an endless string of jargon! Thank you!

Brain always goes for that price/oz amount.

Annoys me when sale tags don’t also have it.

Only 300? XD

That game is nothing but grind after like 20 hours.

That makes sense! The list of dark games probably is most helpful to be like “here’s a list of games made to be addictive, what features that we spoke about are present in the games on this list?”

100%, it’s why I’m more pulled towards RTS games these days.

Like to “catch up” and compete in say a card game… you have to spend money. They are not designed for you to catch up on time.

An rts though? I can catch up to most of the folks if I want to.
