  • Not that my opinion matters any more than the next person’s, but I also can’t recommend Celeste enough.

    It does so many things so very right.
    The pure gameplay is crisp and responsive platforming.
    Like any good platfmorer it has some specific mechanics that make it unique, but every one is intuitive enough to pick up easily enough. I have heard it called something like “the hardest platformer that everyone can finish.”

    And it is true. I could never finish some of the harder SMB levels but I never got too frustrated with Celeste.
    And if I were, there would have been accessibility options to make the game more approachable.

    But it also caters to the hardcore crowd with completely optional collectibles that are organically included into the gorgeous level design.

    It is speedrunnable for those folks.

    And as if that wasn’t enough to make a good platformer it also tells a heartwarming story supported by a beautiful soundtrack.

    Sorry I am rambling, but Celeste is fucking awesome.










  • Like I don’t know that, like anyone doesn’t know that.

    Still noone, not the winning side, and especially not the losing side has any real incentive to launch them first.
    It’s basic game theory, you never choose the option that has you lose absolutely everything, even if the alternative has you lose something big (like a war, or even your life).

    Even crazed dictators like Putin know this.
    And not even Putin can launch a nuke on his own. Even he needs generals and engineers that all know that not only they themselves will die if they obey, also their families will die, everyone they know will die if they obey.

    We will never see full scale nuclear war, because noone at all could ever want that.

    But Putin benefits from rubes just letting him bully everyone around him because, boo hoo he is so crazy and scary and after so many crossed red lines the next one surely is the one that makes him suicide himself, his wife, his daughter, his country, his place in history and anyone or anything he ever valued or cared about.


  • Good job repeating russian propaganda.

    Edit: Not that I care about internet points.
    But the thought that opposing russia would lead to nuclear war is exactly what Putin wants people in the west to think to keep bullying and suppressing everyone around him.

    He is bluffing though and he knows it.

    He said delivering supplies to Ukraine was the red line.
    He didn’t react when we did.

    He said delivering arms to Ukraine was the red line.
    He didn’t react when we did.

    He said delivering tanks to Ukraine was the red line.
    He didn’t react when we did.

    He said delivering planes to Ukraine was the red line.
    He didn’t react when we did.

    Because he can’t. He knows he would lose everything.
