Okay, good, that wasn’t just me. Had to read it 3 times… anyway, bring it! Loved postal 2, stupid as it may be.

We used to have 1-2 “wow killers” every year. The last one that tried was new world in 2021, afaik. So I’m pretty sure they were referring to MMORPGs, not MMOs in general. Altho even those are fewer nowadays than before, I feel.

Hell yeah! Played those games so much. I remember even duelling online with a classmate. Was great

Omg, they’re onto something. Will you reply no matter what people type?

Nah, that wouldn’t be enough to differentiate PoE to hzd, imo. It’s like comparing Max Payne to CSGO. Or I dunno… rocket league to Football manager… or Mario party to street figther… trying to cover as many bases here to cover the games that you might be more familiar with. xD. Point is, in both games you get a character which you level up and customize by doing quests and killing mobs, but that’s pretty much where the similarities end, as far as the gameplay, mechanics and goals of fans go.

And for the record, despite this also being called an arpg, it’ll be very different from both PoE and hzd. ARPG seems to be as vague as “driving game” or “shooter”.

Survivorslike is just one option, auto shooter is the same thing and doesn’t use vampire survivors’ name.

And well, in this case, I just saw op say that this game was gonna be an arpg and because I play a lot of PoE, last epoch, etc. I was expecting something in that vein. Then I open the link and I see 2 seconds of something that looks more like hades or god of war and I was disappointed. So if me wishing we had better terms for various genres makes me a prescriptivist, I guess I am one, in this case.

Also tdggrpg is too complicated of a subgenre name, I feel xD

We need more subgenres! What do you call breath of the wild or the spiderman games in that case?

Imo god of war/ horizon are aptly named because they’re action focused RPGs.

We need new, better name for the “diablo-like” games, however. I feel like those are different enough that there’s not enough “rpg” left in them beyond the character building elements. Survivorslike aren’t RPGs despite them having character leveling and stuff so why should diablo 4 /Poe be called rpgs?

We’ve only seen 2 seconds of gameplay, how can you be sure it’s not a rogue like or something? Did I miss it being stated somewhere or you’re just guessing?

Also, this comment reminded me how ridiculous I find it that we have genres such as “metroidvania” and “souls like”, “auto shooter” , “survivors like” and etc. Yet we can’t come up with subgenre names other than arpg which can describe everything from Bastion, to Horizon Zero down, to path of exile. What’s up with that?

It’s a form of protest. And like with all protests, some are right, some are wrong. It’s not always bad actors.

My claim? You don’t even care who you’re replying to, everyone is wrong and nothing else matters xD change name to emptybox, I say

People also claim the earth is flat. Your point?

Why not? Praise is not a finite resource. One person getting praise doesn’t mean another is gonna get less. Sure, those doctors you’re talking about are getting less praise than her, but they’re also attracting less attention and fewer donations. Everyone has their role to play and getting bogged down on who’s doing more and who’s doing better only detracts from the work.

Sure we do. We even have a word for it… well, words, really. Positive reinforcement.

Just read about the queer satanic thing. Petty thing to do by the satanic temple. Then again, the whole stealing fb page and posting stuff and all… it’s all just internet drama. If they wanted to speak out against tst, I feel like there were better, more mature ways to do it.

Which denomination of satanic? Church of Satan? Satanic temple? Other? xD

Most of the people that appear in Witcher trailers are just random victims or passer-bys.

This video was split into 2, in the other half we learn that the merchant told ciri that he was transporting salt. And that was a chest full of coins.

So just a stupid IGN decision, not your fault nor some lore that you’re unaware of.

Maybe I’m crazy or something but when I hear about a 22 year old that’s putting her life in danger(their boat was already attacked by drones and it wasn’t even near Gaza yet) or sleeping outside of some building or spending most of her time protesting for some cause or another, I don’t hear “spoiled” or “influencer” or anything of that sort. Because I happen to work in an industry where there’s tons of those people. And believe me, spoiled 22 year olds are having fun in clubs and in fancy hotels. Compare Greta’s Instagram with that of any other famous people. Or just search “Greta car” or “hotel” or “restaurant” or try to find any paparazzi pic of her doing anything fun, cause I couldn’t find any.

Maybe she’s not treating kids with lost limbs, but she’s only 22, where was this doctor when they were 22, do you think? Safe in school, I imagine… And Greta’s been doing this for 7 years already. I don’t understand how this doesn’t sound insane to you people. There’s 30 year olds out there with shorter resumes.

And in the end all that doesn’t even matter. What matters is that she’s trying to do something positive, right? And despite that, there’s always people complaining and moaning. Because it’s never enough for you people. And you always give other people as better examples. And it’s never another kid, is it? I’d like one of you to show me a 22 year old that has done more for the world. The closest I could find is Param Jaggi and his algae mobile…but 15 years later the thing seems to be stuck in the promising invention phase.

Dunno, feels like people are letting perfect get in the way of good. What’s the point of bringing down people doing good things? Do better or let them do their thing, doesn’t cost you anything to do the latter, does it?

Oh, I’m sorry, I didn’t realize only activism in person works. My bad. Oh, wait… she does that too… anyway, I’m done with you, I suggest your seek help, it can’t possibly be healthy to need to put others down to feel better about yourself. And you think I’m the angry one, hahaha, funny.

Haha. Jesus, the amount of people in these threads that NEED to believe that she’s useless and a bad person is insane. Whatever lets you sleep at night, I guess.
