So you decided to make a pro-China anti-US argument by linking to a flat-earther meme?

You alright there?

You alright?

Yikes. I don’t even know where to begin to respond to such a mad, confused tirade.
Just that I hope you get whatever help you need and that you feel better soon.

Maybe you can borrow the history book when they’re done with it.

Someone needs to pick up a Chinese history book…

THAC0 is just subtraction instead of addition. I’ll never understand the hate it got.
I have no problem with ascending armor classes and attack bonus. The math is the same. It’s easy and intuitive. But if you’re having issues subtracting whole numbers less than 20, you’ve got a problem bigger than the wrong game system.

Unless theyre scrapping 2077s engine and starting over completely in a different engine for Cyberpunk 2.

They previously (last year or so) said this was their plan.

Thank you! I’ll give that a try.

I’m using Cloudfare for DNS. I’ll check out what they have available.

I agree Reddit is toxic. I’d argue reddit actually stopped being Reddit around 2016. But it’s posts like this that clog it all up and are partially why it is the way it is today.

I gotta agree with this. The toxicity in any reddit thread increases dramatically when the poster pre-emptively complains about all the toxicity they expect to receive. Whereas when you just ask straight without going into a whole speech about comment quality, you get much better replies. Particularly because it’s hijacking your own thread; changing it from whatever question you wanted to ask into an analysis of the comments.

“People are entitled taint-lickers because they don’t like something that I like”

You sound like a lot of fun to be around.

Will the mountains be as boring as NMS?

No, I understood what you said. The point I was making was that while many people are perfectly ok shrugging off women they don’t want to partner with, they get all icky and upset when it comes to shrugging off a man they don’t want to partner with.

Like in your post you specifically singled out Gale. Yet here you are kind of ret-conning that to “4 characters that hit on you.” But when you commented your initial complaint it was just Gale. It was just the gay one.

That’s what I’m talking about when I say subconscious prejudice/homophobia. I’m not putting you on the same level as the mod maker or some rabid homophobe who’s out there trying to take rights away. But I am asking you to examine your reaction and consider if maybe there was something more to it then just “I don’t wanna bang this person.” Why specifically the sympathy for people who don’t like Gale coming on to them vs people who don’t want space-lizard-with-tits or daddy’s princess coming on to them? That’s all.

The other commenter has it 100% right. You had to reject the female companion too, but you only complained about the male one. It wasn’t a problem when you had to reject a girl coming after you, but when you had to reject a guy coming after you, you wished for some game mechanism to disable that kind of interaction. So yes, it’s a form of subconscious homophobia. Look, I’m not calling you a bigot or anything like that, but I am calling you out on having some subconscious prejudice. We all have it somewhere or another. The key is that when you’re called out on it you should recognize it and correct it, rather than get defensive about it.

Because it actually is 100% homophobia, even when it’s unintentional. A bit of introspection as to why it bothers people or why they defend it with “I can see why some people…” would do wonders to highlight peoples’ subconscious prejudices.

I suffered through the awkward feeling of telling Gale off

This happens in real life too, though.

And the dialog gives you the options to turn him down, just like in real like you’d have a “dialog option” to turn down a gay person who hits on you. And in real life, it’s awkward just like it is in game.

All sorts of uncomfortable things happen in the game. Friends die. Children get murdered. Girls get kidnapped and used as baby incubators. Gnomes are forced into slavery. A hobgoblin fucks a ogre in a barn. As much as people don’t want to experience those things in real life, you don’t see mods deleting them. Yet people can’t seem to figure out that making a special case for the gayness is quite actually gay erasure. They’re fine with countless uncomfortable things, buy a bisexual character giving them eyes is too icky to handle??

People need to grow up and stop making excuses for homophobia that they wouldn’t make for anything else.

Does it not work on Linux?

Edit: Ok, it does not. I just tried it.

I loved the demo! This is one I am really looking forward to.

That Blizzard is selling their games on Steam at all speaks volumes about how poorly they are doing.

And at a 25% discount so soon after launch. It’s crazy!

This is the way.
