It's baffling that "we should wait for more than a single, unreliable source before breaking out the torches and pitchforks" is somehow an unreasonable response.

Yeah weird how I might instinctively mistrust someone who's entire ideology is based around my inherent evilness and the need to expunge me from existence. I wonder why I might want corroboration before accepting their words as fact.

Because people lie? And a podcast run by terfs is automatically kinda suspect? If they said the sky was blue, I'd still want to check outside before believing them.

You keep saying "be real" like I haven't watched the media knowingly lie every day for the past quarter century. Sure, eventually a lie like that would end their career. Eventually. But look how long it took Alex Jones lies to finally catch up to him. This is the real world. People lie.

Why are you so eager to believe a single, known untrustworthy, source without any corroboration?

"It was in the thity-fifth year of our war against the demon lord that we resorted to the forbidden summoning. We knew not what kind of hero we would be pulling to our world, only that they would be skilled and capable. We could not have forseen how utterly insane our hero would be."

Isekai story from the PoV of the mandatory game companion character, but the transported hero is a speedrunner and immediately starts doing insane shit to try to circumvent every barrier as rapidly as possible.

I may be jaded, but none of that was even a little bit surprising. Entirely to script and predictable.

The term for it is "foreshortened future". It's a thing that sometimes happens when we spend too much time dealing with Oh God Right Now existential threats and lose the ability to see a future where we make it through.

I've started and failed to continue this story multiple times, because it's a fascinating idea but it has consent landmines and it's slow, but political intrigue/space opera/kinky romance is gonna get tried again soon, I guess.

GURPS solves the problem of being excited about fantasizing how cool your character is during character creation and then feelingmlet down during play by also making character creation so bland and boring it doesn't excite you.

"I am a blade and I thirst for the blood of the tyrants who built me" is a line that goes so hard it should spawn an entire franchise with spin offs.

That's the trouble with these absolute walnuts. They're beyond satire. There is no position or belief so outrageoulsy incomprehensibly wrong that they won't embrace it in full sincerity.

I can't tell if this is satire I'm too tired to pick up on right now or if you're actually, earnestly, honestly, this boneheaded.

That's the whole fucking point. I don't like PvP, and I resent that Bungie is forcing non PvP players like me to participate in their shitty PvP because the ritual Pathfinder lumps everyone into one bucket with no regard for people who don't care for one side or the other.

I can do condescension and belittling, since that seems to be the language you want to speak in, but I don't find it particularly useful to a discussion. There's no point to this argument. You think that PvP should only be fair after you're already "good enough", and I think it should be fair first.

Oh, it's so rough, everyone hates having to actually put in effort to win, that's why I should just stop complaining and... put in more effort... to win? Oh wait. That's not actually how it works, and you just want to keep a system where you get fed easy targets and never have to put in effort.

Good matchmaking results in matches where either team has a chance to win. That is not what Crucible does. Most modes are open skill, which does not take relative ability into account at all. Even the outlier protection matches are still decided during matchmaking most of the time.

Does this not mean "we prefer it when matches are not between evenly matched teams"? Because that is very plainly what it says, and that matches my experience.

And yeah, I'm pretty bad at PvP. Do you know what doesn't help people get better at something? Getting their teeth kicked in every time they try again. Crucible is not intended to welcome people, it is intended to weed them out. So I resent being forced to participate in something like that.
