Damn, I think that question came out wrong. I was actually interested in what it represents. If there’s some history behind this pose that explains why this pose looks cute to some people.

Can someone explain to me why people do this kind of pose? It vaguely looks like she’s resting her head on her hands, but it’s clearly not a comfortable position. So what’s the point?

Maybe, but the difference here is that Animorphs made up a new type of creature. You don’t simply take a fantastical creature that’s been around for thousands of years and say “yeah you’re all wrong, they actually eat with their feet”. That’s presumptuous. Make up your own world where your centaurs do whatever you…

It’s actually a T-Rex with a fin on its head and wings instead of arms. This is not how I picture a dragon at all.

Sorry, but this looks totally crazy and stupid. No, centaurs do not eat with their feet. The legs are way too thin - and way too important for the locomotor system - to be housing a digestive system. Their mouths are not simple holes that lead to the lungs. (That’s what the nose is, dammit.)

It’s actually misquoted, since he says “As a capitalist, [even if I didn’t...]”. He’s saying that it makes sense for a capitalist to aim for diversity, and this gets a bit lost if you take away the beginning of the sentence.

Yeah, they just have to go to a casino and exchange the caps for real currency. Don’t know what this guy was thinking!

Just a heads-up, your train of thought here is very difficult to follow. The sentence with two buts in it certainly doesn’t help, it sounds like your doing a 360 degrees turn there. “The price is too high, but some people will buy it, but sometimes it’s too high. But I’ll buy it.”. ;)

I don’t usually pirate games anymore, but I used to do it quite a bit when I was younger. Specifically, I was active in the RPG Maker community, which really needed those roms of SNES games in order to rip the tilesets. So I not only pirated the games, I also chopped them into tiny pieces that I used for my own games.…

She’s about 21 years old in Dishonored 2, I believe. But yeah, I don’t think the voice fits anymore.

They don’t mention Dishonored 2 at all. All this confirms is that people from Arkane will make a presentation at E3. It could still be Prey 2, or something new.

I didn’t demand anything, and you are being unnecessarily rude. It’s also kind of childish to dismiss anyone as an idiot who doesn’t agree with you.

For me, there’s a difference between the graphics and the visual design of the game. The game’s design is beautiful! But the graphics are a bit outdated. Yes, it’s great that we can actually expect the game to look like this instead of getting a graphical downgrade. But there’s just something missing. I would have…

No. That was neither the point of my comment nor that of her essay. If you think someone always has to get victimized in a relationship, you’re already on the wrong track. (Though it’s true that a student with a social media shitstorm behind them could potentially do way more harm than a professor who can only fail…

I liked the essay. I mean, her main argument is that the professors don’t have all the power in such a relationship, and aren’t necessarily “preying” on the students. She isn’t actually defending those relationships as a good thing, but she is questioning the reasons that are given by the people who prohibited those…

No. Her point is that big projects on Kickstarter don’t ask for the money they actually need and that this distorts the idea backers have of how much it costs to make a game. That’s what her article is about and I agree that this seems like a valid concern. (Though I personally don’t see how anyone could believe that…

I understood that she was talking about the costs of a full time job. I’m saying that this is ridiculous and the way she put it is misleading. She says “we would have had to ask for 672,000 dollars, but we asked for 12,000 instead because of big games like Yooka-Laylee”.

But that’s exactly the problem. If her project is almost done and only needs 12,000 dollars, where does the figure of 672,000 dollars come from? How is it in any way a realistic figure then? She calculates this figure as a direct comparison and says “this is higher than Yooka-Laylee, so we couldn’t do it that way, so…

The article by Katie Chironis on Polygon is interesting, but... what the hell? She says Elsinore would need almost 672,000 dollars using the math her whole argument is based on. And then they settle for 12,000 dollars?! And the Kickstarter for Elsinore even says that this low budget is enough to make the game?!

But it’s not “evidence”. It’s nothing but a conspiracy theory where you took tweets out of context to suggest that people who wanted to stop the meeting would also plant a bomb.
