I don’t think any of the skill upgrades are required to progress. Maybe to unlock some optional rooms, but I can't even remember them being necessary for that.

I mean, I'm kind of burnt out on it too, but this series started out this way, so I wouldn't expect it to change now.

Lol, it’s funny that you consider the multiplayer to be the thing that defines quake’s genre, because back when it came out, multiplayer shooters were still very much in their infancy and all the hype was for the game’s single player. I feel like mods and updates later in the game’s life were the main reason for the…

Lol, they were never that beloved. Few people gave a shit about them until Witcher 3 came out. And while unique, the first two Witcher games were kind of a mess.

Under 18 is prohibited from uber/lyft

Another good point. My current company is large enough to deal with the visa issue (and many of our employees are here on work visas). At smaller companies, the number of PoC working there has been dramatically lower.

Oh no man, I’m not arguing that they aren’t failing somewhere along the line. Just that it isn’t an egregious failure. If they weren’t making an effort to hire women, it’s not at all a surprise that their team is all dudes. All white dudes though? That’s far more surprising.

Yeah, despite finishing my bachelor’s five years ago, I’ve been a dev for a decade. And that roughly 10 to 1 ratio of developers has held true throughout my career. I’ve seen statistics that put that number closer to 40%, but I suspect that statistic is including tangential positions like project management and ui/ux…

To be fair, there is a huge discrepancy between the number of men working in this field and women. There are all sorts of systemic reasons why this is an issue, but it is one reason why dev teams tend to consist of mostly men. I finished my bachelor’s in computer science and, of the 30 or so people graduating with me,…

Noooo, absolutely not. It wasn’t even published in the US until 2002. Those huge manga sections every bookstore has now? Not a single volume to be seen in US bookstores in the early 90s. You'd be lucky to find a couple small shelves of random anime DVDs and VHS cassettes in a store like Sam Goody and no way in hell…

Right? It used to take hard work and determination to get your hands on a complete series back then. And I only knew like four geeky dudes who had even heard of Cowboy Bebop or Akira. Now it seems like my daughter is effortlessly binging a new series every week.

Hell yeah they do. At least with younger generations, anime has become mainstream af. And I love it. I see kids wearing my hero shit absolutely everywhere.

Genuinely neat AND legitimately cool?! You can consider me impressed!

Lol, that’s just a coffee maker.

Lol, that’s just a coffee maker.

The default difficulty is fine if you just want to casually clear the missions without much effort. The next level up feels like the difficulty of left 4 dead and requires teamwork and communication.

Quiye possible that their "designer" googled polygon logo or something like that and ripped off whatever they saw in the results though

No. People are fucking terrible.

Alright, thanks!

Freakazoid!

Pig in the City was better than the original by a long shot. Such a weird movie with absolutely incredible set designs.
