Eccentric

Yeah if I ever give it another go I'll definitely check it out even if it's a little janky. I liked the intro but after the first few missions I gave up. The POV thing was such an unreasonable thing to be a deal breaker, but I really just couldn't get immersed after spending so much time making my character and then not seeing them as part of the world

Honestly the fact that the game puts such an emphasis on customizing your character and then is 1st person all the way through annoyed me to no end. Thanks for the recommend, didn't know there was a mod that changed it

Yeah, with the spawn distances and the amount of enemies, there's very little space for a true sniping experience. Plus with the destructible environment, high ground is very rarely guaranteed. Plus, the camera shake mechanics aren't the most conducive to sniping. I do think that if OP wants a more sniper-ey experience, they're in their right to request it since it's a PvE game and the most important thing is to have fun. Maybe they could introduce some more variety into the sniper lineup, like different types of rounds. Or maybe a new planet that's got lots of close spaced high ground where staying at ground level means you get boxed in by enemies

There's the AMR, which is the only "sniper" in the game imo. But it takes up a stratagem slot and isn't nearly as penetrating as I'd like it to be. I only really use it if I find it laying around in the wild.

Tbh I think the whole game is designed away from a sniper play style, which is a little disappointing. But I'm willing to forgive it with how fun it is otherwise.

I try to make everything from scratch, but sometimes I make pre made when I know I'm avoiding eating because I don't feel like cooking. If I make pre made though, I'll always add something to it to bulk it out. Ramen? Handfuls of frozen veg. Frozen pizza? Slap mushrooms, peppers, onions on top. Pasta sauce? Spinach, homemade stock, and carrots.

To me, its about health. I know processed food isn't healthy, so I want to mitigate the damage.

Hahaha I did the same thing

I just thought it was a more lighthearted deep dive than the ones I usually post. It's pretty cool to see the different techniques this guy went through to identify alt accounts and how seriously discord nation state LARPers take their community

It gets worse. There's a population of natives trapped on the island in legal limbo, living in awful conditions in the name of "national security".

Steam auto accepts the request if you use the friend link afaik so we should be friends now :)

Thank you to Tolstoy :)

I generally agree with the article, but think you have a point when you say that it's hard to argue for self defense for a premeditated action. However, I don't think that the author was trying to make the point that self defense law was failing women, but more trying to illustrate that "self defense" as a legal concept is a bit flawed.

Unfortunately, DV laws in the US kind of suck and that doesn't seem to be changing anytime soon. I read an article not too long ago about how even when women try to use DV resources and go to the police, they can often face legal repercussions for failing to protect their children from the abuse. All around horrific situation that I wouldn't wish on anyone

The "gay panic" defense is still valid in most states. Truly tragic
