  • Not a single thought behind those eyes.

  • I love the nicknames!

  • Whopsie, yes, my bad. The two always get mixed in my mind.

  • About the LGBTQ part: she was working at EA when she transitioned, and she recounted acceptance and support for trans people was codified in her workplace, in a time when transitioning often meant discrimination, rejection and even job loss.

    People don't always remember that EA were the "good guys" before they made bank with Sims and CoD.

  • Her hour long speech about how 3DO Doom came to be is legendary. If you don't have the time to listen to it in its entirety, I recommend StopSkeletonsFromFighting's summary.

    I put these links separately from the main post because, although many people remember her for this story, she was a legend who worked on many other games and deserves to be remembered for other, much greater accomplishments.

  • Do we know who was to blame for that? Last I heard, the publisher and the developers were pointing fingers at each other.

  • Without going into homebrew or Wish territory (as the former is table-dependent and the latter is DM-dependent), Finger of Death creates an undead that is permanently under your command.

    Being a 6th level spell, a 20th level caster can cast it six times per day (by spending all their higher level slots casting that spell exclusively), which means that, provided you have a steady supply of humanoids to cast the spell on, you could have six undeads per day, or 180 per month. In a year, that's 2190 undeads, which is itself a small army. Give it some time, and you'd have a small country following your commands.

    At that point there are only two problems: time itself (which can be solved with features that increase your lifespan, such as Boon of Immortality), and other people trying to stop you (which can be solved by using your spell slots to make them regret their decision).

  • Over the years, nobody has ever guessed my passwords, but four sites I was subscribed to were compromised and my email+password got leaked anyway.

    The strongest chain and the weakest link...

  • Is that still the only modern day gameplay segment of the entire franchise?

    Kind of wild that they never revisited the idea.

  • Oh, absolutely. Which is why I avoid popular social media: you just end up drowning in AI/botted content.

  • I love how so many people on Reddit are acting like this is a complete shock. That site has been a cesspool of bots and targeted ads for years now, people still believed they were having real conversations with humans? I'd be surprised if legit content was higher than 50%.

  • That banana didn't stand a chance!

  • Adorable :)

  • If you like Max Payne, I also recommend Stranglehold. It's a canonical sequel to John Woo's Hard Boiled, and it's a lot of fun, albeit on the short side.

  • I think the modern day approach is to take an incredibly hot person, and give them whatever demon-y fetish (red/blue skin, tail, horns, etc) you're into.

  • That's a nostalgic pic.

  • I had a pitbull when I was a kid, I can definitely see the resemblance.

    She was the bestest and kindest dog I've ever met. Fuck the stereotypes.

  • Have you tried commissioning a fursuit? (A feathersuit?)

  • I love GoG, but I wish it stopped getting games so late that, by the time they release on it, I've already bought them on two competing platforms.

    Aside from that, this is a solid release. RE1make is one of the best horror games ever made: I was scared shitless even on my third playthrough. Highly recommended if you want a good game for Halloween night.
