Just tucking collapse. Please. This war drives me to severe depression, I feel like a prisoner in what used to be my home. I’m already seriously considering sawing my leg off, just to have a chance of escaping this horrorshow of a country.
That’s why I don’t use Windows, even in a dualboot setup. If a game doesn’t run in proton, U can live without it.
You’re right, if course. But being trapped in a fascist country for 2.5 years, I have dim views of the perspectives of this nation, as well as my own. At this point, all that I feel towards this place, as well as people who gleefuly support turning it into what it has become, is deep resentment. I, personally, intend to leave it at the first opportunity and never step on Ukrainian soil again. That is, of course, if I won’t get buried in it.
Ukraine as a nation is dead.
It’s only now that people here start to open their eyes to the reality of things, but a lot of them are still blinded by the rabid hatered of Russians. By this point, I think it’s to late, the fascist government has the stranglehold on the people, strip-mining the country of money and human beings for the war effort, before inevitably jumping ship. Frankly, I don’t believe there’s any hope for Ukraine as a state and for Ukrainian people. Not in the nearest decades, at least.
It’s worth noting that the book Joker grows out of his obedience to the empire and gets to know and relate to the people he has come to Vietnam to kill. The movie doesn’t explore the second book of the duology (despite borrowing some imagery from it), where the consequences of serving the empire come back to bite Joker in the ass and, ostensibly, make him a better person.
All in all, I like the books a whole lot better.
It’s a really interesting time period, and it’s such a shame that the game turned out to be an utter garbage.
The indie sector is also keeping it mostly lean. No other game has made me cry like Signalis did, and it’s less than a gig.
As soon as I finally move to Russia and settle down, I’m planning on taking the trip there with my SO. It’s going to be great.
Thank you, I’ve almost retched at the idea.
The tea is absolutely the superior drink.
I’m currently obsessing over Signalis again. It’s so good… But so heartbreaking. I just can’t stop hurting myself with it emotionally.
He was a comedian, but not a stand-up comedian.
I giggled all the way through both EA episodes. It’s just… Lovely? Not sure it’s the right kind of word for this, but I certainly loved it. But I’m an unrepentant gorehound, so your measure may wary.
The titular duo are complete monsters, but they can be cute and endearing at the same time. They’re just really well written. In a way, the game reminded me of “Devil’s Rejects” by Rob Zombie: the central characters are vile, unrepentant scum, but the camera bias and their good characterization makes them kinda sympathetic. They’re still scum though, and the movie doesn’t pretend otherwise. The game is similar, except when “Devil’s Rejects” is extremely brutal in its approach to violence, this game is quite cartoonish… For the most part, anyways.
As usual, the worst part of this is gonna be the fanbase. I’ve already seen nazi shit involving the characters.
I know it’s not good to generalise, but at this point I can’t help but see burgerlanders as fundamentally evil.
Don’t let the door hit you on your way out.
Liberal redditors turn everything they touch with their greasy mitts into shit.
On a separate topic. What’s the connection between Lemmygrad and lemmy.ml?
they refuse to allow a list of US atrocities page.
How the hell do they justify it?
Frankly, at this point I always assume that a given American mainstream public figure holds abhorrent views. Sometimes I get pleasantly surprised, but not as often as I’d like.
