Funnily enough it was treated as such, and same with the “critical miss”

With us it kind of depends on the situation. If a critical success or fail would make sense or be very funny we treat it as such.

the DM can balance it back <3

Very true. My level 12 party of five fought a Blob of Annihalation. They won…

I see a lot of hate for the HIMYM finale and… I truly do not get it. I will not praise it as a cinematic masterpiece, because it isn’t. But it is an ending that they have been building up since the very beginning, and it makes perfect sense given the characters and what they went through. There are a lot of show endings that cannot claim that at all, with random last-minute additional arcs or forgetting things from earlier seasons. I haven’t seen any of that in HIMYM. So yeah, I think it’s a decent ending overall, and I truly do not understand the hate it gets.

As for GoT; yeah that went into shitshow territory from season 7 for me personally.

*La Grande Vadrouille", or by it’s English title, “Don’t look now, we’re being shot at.” Three RAF pilots accidentally strand themselves in occupied France. With the help of the resistance, and some guys who were in the wrong place at the wrong time, they try to escape. It’s definitely a product of its time, but it’s not too bad compared to some other titles of this age. Definitely worth a watch!

It’s kinda mainstream, but I’ve enjoyed Modern Family quite a bit. Sure, there is some friction, but it all works out in the end, so perhaps that fits what you’re looking for.

Lives, all mortal lives, expire Souls go to their doom in flame Forevermore

There are great examples in this thread of great games from years past. But from more recent games, everyone who has played BG3 to its close (or near it) will likely agree with me. It was an amazing buildup and amazing scene when it happened.

A bit more niche, but I’d say Roll20 for online TTRPG’s. It has quirks, absolutely, but it has gotten better overall and is free with optional paid plans that offer good benefits which are not necessities.

Slightly hotter take - this one may be the consumer’s fault. They keep making them because 1. copyright expiration, and 2. people keep fucking watching it! This is such an easy thing to use your wallet as a vote on.

Last year, an amazing movie called Juror #2 came in the cinemas. Not a remake (to my knowledge) or sequel of any kind. I watched in the first week of release in my country. I had to go to a less-well known cinema because the main ones did not even show it in that city. And once there, we were in a small watching room that wasn’t even full. One week into release. Meanwhile, Gladiator 2 down the hall was in a nearly sold-out, much larger room.

I love shitting on big corporations like many lemmings here, but in this specific instance, I think the consumers are at fault. Movies are not a necessity. Pirate them if you really want to watch a remake/sequel, and pay for original stuff. Companies keep making nostalgia slop because people keep paying them for it. It really is that simple.

Ah that’s on me missing the clue then, apologies. Though in my defense, there are parents that do stuff like this.

Genuine question - why is that deemed a good answer? I’d expect an actual solution for a child to be more apropriate than humiliating an adult later in life. Like the suggestions telling to start singing it yourself, wrongly, seem much more effective and appropriate to me.

Full disclosure tho: Not a parent and no plans to ever be one

Indeed, much of enshittification can be blamed on the corporations, but this one is definitely the consumer’s fault.

Just last year, I went to a new, original movie called Juror #2. It looked great in the trailer, and I was not disappointed! At least, not by the movie. I was disappointed by the fact that there were only like 20/30 people in the room to watch it. And this was only a week after it came out! Meanwhile, Gladiator II had a fully booked and bigger room.

It works just fine for me on my RTX 3060 Ti. No significant performance decrease or stuttering at all (except in Cities Skylines II but that’s not Wayland’s fault)

Honestly I can’t refute that. Thankfully, euthanisation is legal in some countries (The Netherlands & Switzerland) but many countries need to catch up to it. I’m sorry that you are going through what you are going through, and I hope that you will be able to go on your terms rather than your illness’ terms

Pretty much, but their believers get very upset if you tell them that

Don’t forget the “not believing in god = sadness” one. Realizing it is fake actually brought relief for the ex-religious people that I know (anecdotal, I know. I don’t have the actual numbers).

I mean, they could just choose to not participate. Especially now that it’s still new, if they can’t get many (or any) top athletes to participate, it will likely flop.

And if someone does choose to participate, well, they are free to risk their lives for a few million more imo. At the end of the day, these people are paid ludicrous amounts of money to run in circles or jump or throw stuff. Not exactly an essential job and easily replaced by another goon desperate for their five minutes of fame. It would be sad if they got hurt, sure, but they bring it upon themselves by being in that industry in the first place.

Here in The Netherlands we have a drink called Cassis. It’s a soda made from fermented blueberries. It sounds more delicious than it is in reality, in my opinion.

Not to mention that those same 4 billion people are convinced that it is an act of love. Their god would be abusive as fuck if it existed.

Indeed, I wanted to know the keys to disable health bars and such to make the screenshot prettier. I’ll try to rebind the keybind in Valheim when I have the time. Thank you!
