    Plots are dynamic and ongoing. Staff is available and responsive. We are a small game that welcomes players of all experience levels. Starting Xp is awarded for interesting and needed concepts. Group applications will be entertained.

    @Gashlycrumb Also, chances are most of the people you (general not specific) have a problem with have a similar opinion of you so 1) Why would they care? 2) Why would they be surprised? People are allowed to avoid games because of Staff (whether your own issue or in support of someone else) so it seems hypocritical to not allow Staff the same option especially when they’re the one putting in the effort to run the game.

    I would say that it’s less about the allegations of antisemitism in general and more about allegations that turn out to be untrue. A lot of (very abusive, shitty) people can point to allegations proven false as evidence of no wrong-doing in the future, which can create a more dangerous space – this was my argument against Wikibara’s inclusion of the link between their application being denied and antisemitism in their original post.

    When I worked in in-patient court-mandated substance abuse recovery, there was a white supremacist guy who told me tales about how he would get fabrications of abuse, which could easily be proven false to create a protective shell. “I don’t abuse my partner, she said I abused her and everyone found out it was bullshit”, which then gave him free rein to kind of abuse whomever. After all, people are lying to discredit his character. I stopped being interested in correctional psych after that, if I’m being honest. Moral injury and all.

    According to my (very uninformed, very amateur) research, this is apparently called a “silver bullet” in the legal field.

    @dvoraen said in General Video Game Thread:

    Does anyone else increasingly feel like you have no time ever for recreation? Here’s an idea of my backlog, assuming I did full completions including postgame:

    finish Octopath Traveler I - 20h? (Postgame quests and bosses) Octopath Traveler II - 120h? Dragon Quest I-III (HD-2D) - 200h? <- hard to judge; probably higher Dragon Quest VII Reimagined - 150h? <- estimate due to 200h on DQXI Horizon: Forbidden West - 70h? God of War: Ragnarok - 70h?

    Now let’s add in stuff just released or soon to launch that will undoubtedly consume focus!

    Windrose (EA launch) - > 50h easily I’m sure; depends on content. Soulmask (1.0) - > 100h if I commit to it

    I’m doomed. 😭

    Yes, I feel this way.

    I beat DQ1-3 but I need to finish Octopath Zero and DQ7.

    It also doesn’t help that I spend about 3-4 hours a day painting now lol.
