Remember when Facebook’s overarching company bought out Oculus? Well, some VR games seem to start out as exclusives on the “quest” headsets. (I know Facebook [the parent company] changed their name to “Meta”, but I refuse to acknowledge that)

I don’t have the tech-saavy for emulation, and I’ll still wait for console exclusives to come out on PC (unless we’re talking Nintendo exclusives I’m actually interested in). I’ve actively waited for Ghost Signal: A Stellaris Game to no longer be a Facebook exclusive, and now I’m doing the same for Out Of Scale.
That being said, I question how that applies in this context. Corporate leadership doesn’t exactly strike me as trustworthy nor worthy of mercy, although that could be a lean toward cynicism on my part.
Considering this and No Man’s Sky having to spend YEARS clawing back good will, I think the lesson here is “don’t make deals with AAA publishers”.
Yeah, maybe it would make more sense to just hook up an electrical mimic-fireplace to a fusion reactor’s electrical output, than to use the actual helium plasma exhaust to mimic flames, come to think of it.
No, that still probably wouldn’t work out, as the other comments have pointed out. Just clarifying that the dangerous aspects of what I asked wouldn’t involve uranium in particular.
True, but I was specifically talking about nuclear fusion, which would entail helium/hydrogen plasma rather than fissionable material.
The way you used italics, I gotta ask, is excommunication coming from the Presbyterians unusual compared to other Christian groups?
…by coming back as a yurei to haunt the people who wronged you? I’m not following.
…I’m out of the loop, are sorcerers somehow less effective in social and/or combat encounters with specifically blue and bronze dragons?
“Oh, no, those powers require being the kid in that situation…”
Yeah, you could easily reflavor component-requiring Animal Friendship as “just feeding the animal and somehow flawlessly avoiding harm”, just to make it ambiguous whether this is actually magic or just mundane.
I haven’t actually seen this being used, but since Hypnotic Pattern in DND5E can require a stick of incense as a component if you’re using spell components, I imagined someone casting that by twirling a thurible (incense burner on a chain) above their head, and somehow physically throwing the scent into the targeted area, and then a (mostly) harmless explosion of colorful, sparkly gas charms any affected targets through sheer fascination.
Yeah, I think there’s a vast difference between what we have now (ChatGPT and whatnot), vs the theoretical possibility of an AGI (artificial general intelligence), or even an AI based entirely off of human neural patterns. Mind you, brain uploading sounds hard, so maybe I’d see a completely synthetic AGI as more likely.
But if we were ever to develop an AGI, we’d better start giving those things humanesque rights fast.
The first sentence made me think “alright, Kingdom of Loathing”, but I don’t know if goblins in that universe imprint on people.
Come to think of it, there may have been one character in West of Loathing that popped, respawned, and had no memory loss at all, so never mind.
I was thinking something like a chisel, but yeah, these comments suggest even that would break before the ice.
Yeah, probably less “revenge” in a human sense, and more “treating a tiger that badly drives you way up on the tiger’s ‘prey priority list’”
Fair, and what I had in mind was a case of an actual tiger that got severely wounded by a human, with said human stealing its food, and the tiger responding by killing said human (and maybe his dog), but not before camping out at his lodging and waiting for him to return there. Almost like vengeful stalking behavior in particularly creepy humans, but probably a lot more mentally simple for the tiger.
So yeah, I could see spite being a better description.
I was talking about Sinnoh/Hisui, but the other region I was thinking of was Kitikami (from Scarlet/Violet’s Teal Mask DLC), as white-stripe Basculin seem to show up in the latter’s waterways.
But yeah, migrations between Hisui and Johto might still have happened, considering that Sinnoh still has Sneasel in the modern day, but only the Johtonian subspecies.
“…the Holy Roman Empire.” (Quickly and quietly) “It’s actually Germany, but don’t worry about it”
Edit: to be clear, I was quoting Bill Wurtz
