its one thing that at least impresses me about my small missouri town is me and my parents are usually the only people masked in stores but at least everyone has the good sense to not fucking comment on it. Yet to meet someone willing to make a scene about it

No seriously the only time he;s pardoned jack shit it was the son of Andy Reid and Papa Reid didnt even request it, Parsons is just that much of a dumbfuck football fan that he'd abuse his office to get a Chiefs family member out of killing a kid while driving drunk

the thinkpieces will happen regardless because it drives engagement with a website and thats all capitalism gives a shit about. Same reason there was articles with this dlc baiting rage reactions to the mere possibility there might be an easy mode.

thing is though. the "souls doesnt need easy mode" guys also tend to get pissed as fuck when I use summons or magic or anything except no armor str glass cannon builds., so I generally enjoy pissing them off anyhow.

Nah. for me at least the fun of souls (and souls likes) games is the exploration,. the interesting worldbuilding, and the interesting weapon movesets granted this is why I also use magic and summons and the git gud types would insist I'm playing souls wrong

Between this and Gencon ditching their entire online con thereby making sure anyone like me who liked attending the virtual con to play games without risking my older parents getting covid via me, I have so very little patience for gemcon anymore.

makes sense. if anything Palpatine was like any other tyrant in that manipulating people to gain power and running a massive government are two very different skillsets and he likely just gave contracts to companies who were loyal regardless of if they had any quality control or standards

I remember one time remarking to one of those sorts on twitter that after the interaction was over I'd probably forget their name and what the argument was even about and that'd be the end of their relevance to me and they got super pissed. I was correct though, hell if I remember their name
