Yeah, just go ahead and blame the consumer because the company makes shit product. They keep pushing stuff that the people don’t want. Any business doing this is going to go tits up. That’s just how it works. Are you out there buying 30 extra versions of Far cry to help them out? If not, stfu about it and blame the people in charge, definitely not the consumer.
Potatoe and baby soup, not just filling, but nutritious!
Personally, I can’t wait for XXX rated fortnight. /s
THATS why they left viewing slits!
“ceremonial” is the standard answer when they can’t figure it out.
I hated that show with a passion when my kid first started watching it. Then one night after he went to bed, he left it on TV and I got stoned and just couldn’t be bothered to change it while I played on my phone. Then I got to where I put my phone down and was just legit watching it and laughing my ass off. After that, I found myself sitting there watching it with him and enjoying it totally sober.
The good thing about the fallout series is that unless you’re in survivor, you can generally carry enough to deal with the encounter. It’s not like far cry where you’re just like “FUCK! WORST possible timing!” And it was always like a stupid fucking badger or something. I don’t even mind coming across death claws. I’m carrying 15 mini nukes, 120 stimpacks, leveled up power armor and enough ammunition to make lead poisoning a bigger environmental threat than the rads.
If it makes money, then it works. Not everything has to milk us dry.
The big thing about the show, and the games is the moral ambiguity of it. It’s captured in a line that maximus says in episode 2? Or 3? Where he says “everyone wants to save the world. They just disagree how to do it.” It’s an important line because everyone has their own way of dealing with the wasteland, which isn’t inherently wrong all the time. And if you watch the ghoul, you’ll see there’s a lot more depth to him than being a comedic psychopath. Give it a little more time and you’ll connect with the characters more. Less so with Lucy, but I think she’s there more as a blank slate, to show how the world can change an otherwise good person.
That’s partially true. They use dehydrated onions but their buns and meat are never dehydrated. So that leaves a lot to be explained. The “meat” is heavily salted and frozen, as well as having a lot of cellulose (“wood pulp”) in it. The waxy paper wrapping also has a lot to do with it not degrading, as it makes it harder for bugs to get to. If you left a McDonald’s burger outside without the wrapper, better believe it’ll be mostly gone within a day or two.
I mean, I HATE McDonald’s with a passion, but I’ll eat there over BK all day, every day. That rubbery patty that tastes like it was drug through an ashtray? No thanks. Both are terrible but I’ve eaten at McDonald’s 10-15 times in the last 20 years? BK once. And it reminded me never to eat there ever again. Last time I ate at Hardee’s, their new char broiled burger reminded me so much of Burger King that I won’t eat there anymore, either except for breakfast. Their breakfast is hands down the best breakfast in all of fast food.

It’s just so hard keeping up with this hell that we’re living in lately. Like, I’m just trying to keep my job and pay my bills. I have a good job, but I am constantly concerned that I won’t have it at any point in time. The constant stress isnt doing me any favors. I’m lucky that I’ve been frugal and saved a lot, but I don’t consider that enough to settle my fears.
Thanks! You all have been very helpful in my understanding of the Lemmy world!
Ok, sounds like I’ll just stick with .world for a while until I get my “sea legs”
Hey, thanks for the detailed explanation! That certainly helps, but it’ll probably take me a while to fully get it. I signed up using voyager and it didn’t tell me anything like that. I’m sure it’ll make more sense as I get used to it. So can I not see all posts from other instances?
Bro… What?!? I’ve only been here a day and I have no clue what any of that means lol
We have gran turismo, why would we need or want Forza?
