Someone paid attention in history class and has been drawing parallels.

I’m telling!

How was Magnolia? I loved Lillies.

Drop Duchy

Roguelike Tetris/card/city builder. 13 hours in and it’s solid./L Description from the Steam page does a good job of explaining an unconventional roguelike.

Drop Duchy - Build your duchy piece by piece in this refreshing hybrid rogue-lite game. Use block-dropping mechanics to collect resources, recruit troops to fight against belligerent armies, and let every block shape your realm, leading your path to victory!

Webbed This deceptively simple metroidvania is based around using spiderwebs as the main mechanic for puzzle solving. You have two web modes: swinging or pulling yourself to a surface or creating persistent webs. The webs stay when you leave the current screen/room so when you spend time making yourself a ramp to get somewhere you don’t need to redo it again when you return to an area.

I also thought it was a cool touch that they made it accurate to nature in that the male spider is a riot of color and the female is grey/browns. I think they’re based on peacock spiders and the protagonist is the female.

I loved the Ori games and No Rest for the Wicked was shaping up to be a great game. Hoping my refund request to Steam wallet goes through; 67 hours played. I included in my refund request that I want to take that money and use it to support a studio that isn’t run by an asshole (but worded gooder).

Well that sucks. I was really liking this game but I’m not supporting trash people with my money. Sucks for the developers working there. Refund requested and review with reasoning posted.

I was unaware that Thomas Mahler was such a goon, bad boss, and puts out misleading press to bolster sales. I have requested a refund and will not be supporting anything he is involved in going forward.

Despite its beautiful Ori games, Moon Studios is called an ‘oppressive’ place to work - https://venturebeat.com/games/despite-its-beautiful-ori-games-moon-studio-is-called-an-oppressive-place-to-work/ Posted May 15.

The reckoning is coming. If Britain can face it head-on, surely we can too. Better to shape the future on our own terms than to be overwhelmed by its arrival.

What does this even mean

Translation: I’m an anti-immigrant bigoted racist.

Then I think the other person and I both misunderstood. It looked like you were defending Israel’s use of human shields.

I still won’t justify using a human shield.

Just don’t accept blankets from Colonel Henry Bouquet.

Wrist slaps incoming!

Just accidentally memorize it from having to manually pay a bunch of bills online in a short span!

I also pro-rate the value of my games like this. For instance, Helldivers 2: paid $39.99 (€35,76), played 537 hours. That’s $0.001 (€0,0012) or 1/10th of a cent per hour of play. Even if I add $2000 (€1.788,61) for the PC I play on that still only comes to $3.79 (€4.24) an hour.

Hard to beat that price per hour of entertainment.

My Steam spend over the lifetime of my account comes to $25 (€27,97) a month which is a decent monthly entertainment cost. Of course that doesn’t account for additional spending on other entertainment but putting the total spent amount in perspective is definitely good to do, so thanks for pointing that out for those who need it.

Edit: added € costs

Using a human shield is a choice. I think they were making the point that what you said is garbage justification for using a human shield.

Their real reason is that they don’t think brown people deserve due process.

They’re just getting started with immigrants.

It also makes it easy to remove reddit from search results entirely.

Kagi search has a function to specifically search the fediverse.

The main scripture of Eckankar, the Shariyat-Ki-Sugmad.

They’re trying to burn the library of Alexandria, again.

If it weren’t for my horse, I wouldn’t have spent that year in college.

Same to you!
