I had requested that this account be deleted last week. Until kbin.social’s admin gets off their ass and deletes my account, I will continue to shitpost. If this offends, block me and get on with your life.
Marketers gonna market. If “simulation” is a hot-selling category, then games are going to be sold as “simulations” if they bear even a slight resemblance to an actual simulation. This the same industry in which the customers con themselves into thinking that Final Fantasy is still a role-playing game.
Why do it? For the same reason Mt. Everest is littered with human corpses, shit, and garbage. For the same reason there’s an American flag and a plaque immortalizing Richard fucking Nixon on the goddamned moon.
Because it’s there.
The IDF under the Likud regime is doing a bang-up job of sowing dragons’ teeth and setting the stage for future wars.
When I die, roast weenies over my funeral pyre and blast old Judas Priest albums out of a boom box.
Even if I was into sounding that would be too hardcore for me.
Upside of being a GenX latchkey kid, even if I was born in the tail end of that generation. My parents didn’t really give a shit what movies I rented as long as they weren’t pornos. Not that they looked too close. I got away with renting Caligula by passing it off as a sequel to Masterpiece Theater’s I, Claudius.

Are you talking about this GigaMe? If they’re at all legit you might be working for them as a contractor on assignment to other shops. I’d ask her if you’d be working for GigaMe as an employee or as a contractor. If she’s at all evasive, ghost her and make GigaMe the first entry in your very own Shitty Recruiter Blacklist. They claim to be based in Santa Clara, CA, but it looks more like an Indian company with an office in the US.
The basilisk can eat my meaty ass. The nerds at LessWrong plagiarized Harlan Ellison’s I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream and they’re too fuckin’ ignorant to realize it.
If spez is still running that dump, there’s no reason to even consider going back.
The real issue is the absolutely pathetic state of sex ed in the US. A lot of these people probably grew up thinking that “safe sex” meant doing it when she isn’t ovulating and somehow never learned any better despite living through the AIDS epidemic of the 1980s.
OP’s not wrong, though. Inmates of boomer gulags are old, not dead. They’re gonna fuck unless you keep 'em in solitary confinement 24/7.
You can play most of it solo, aside from some of the major boss fights, and it’s both a “greatest hits” nostalgia trip and a damned good FF in its own right once you get into the Heavensward expansion and beyond.
