Fair, maybe this time it’ll stick.

I think you might enjoy Trepang2. It is heavily inspired by the combat in F.E.A.R., has unlockables and arena modes for some replayability. There is a demo and a sale on GOG.

I really hope he just moves Valve to NZ. That way I could spend money on Steam again without feeling dirty.

There is a demo out on Steam, if anyone wants to try it.

Edit: So, I played the demo. Takes about 30 minutes. The game has a lot of charm, but that much was clear from the trailer. The gameplay is… basic. There is a map on which missions pop up. You choose the hero to send there, based on their skills. You get some hacking minigames and every now and then you can choose what your character says or does in a cutscene.

If I had to critique something else besides the basic gameplay, it’s the lack of feedback after a mission. You get a voice line and a little graph that shows how well your chosen hero’s skills matched the requirements of the mission. Also some missions were clearly meant to be done by one specific hero, but if they are on cooldown or already busy elsewhere you have to send someone else. Made me feel like I did something wrong. I think the game will be its strongest after you have already played it once. Knowing who to send where and being aware of character specific missions. But at the same time, a lot of the charm of the game will be gone by the second time you play it, since you already saw most of the very well done cutscenes.

About every 3-4 weeks.

Hell yeah! Chapter 1 was fantastic. One of the best boomer shooters out there. A must play for anyone who enjoyed “Blood” back in the days.

I knew that game is popular, but damn…

I had it on my wishlist since 09.04.2018, according to Steam. Never found a deal that made me want to buy it.

Sounds more melancholic to mean than neutral, but maybe that’s subjective. I don’t know of any specific album that sounds like this though, besides more slow piano music.

Maybe try some atmospheric music. You will find tons of it on Youtube and elsewhere. Some faster, some slower. Most of it is pretty neutral.

I don’t really understand what you are looking for. Can you give an example?

Regarding the “Trying to prepare in advance” part. Download a complete SNES Rom collection from archive.org and an installer for SNES9x. The collections are around 1GB and include hundreds of games. Lots of them with Co-Op or two player modes.

You should see a doctor.

“Nope, sandy desert. All of it. Barely livable. Even hostile, some would say!”

True, how could I forget. They should whip some faith into me!

“We gave less fortunate people from Africa, who were living in huts made out of mud, a chance to build a country. Not only for us but for themselves. We gave them purpose and hope. Made them hard working members of society! They were the founding fathers for the black communities you can find all over today’s America. They should be thankful, because we gave them an alternative to starving in a sandy desert!”

Excuse me, I need to take a shower now.

I haven’t purchased or (knowingly) consumed an animal product in about three years now and I only buy clothes and shoes that are made in the EU and produced fair. I actually contact companies and ask them where they make their products, if I can’t find that info on their website.

Regarding your statement about communities helping themselves. I am all for that, but how would that practically go down? Let us assume I own an apartment block and I want to rent out a flat to someone. What am I supposed to do if an omni applies? Say “No, you are not living vegan (enough)!”? Because that is what your proposal boils down to.

I will not deny basic human needs, just because someone doesn’t share my ethical views on animals or human labor. Especially if following these views costs money, time and energy. A single mom with two kids won’t have any of those three. They still deserve a home.

Edit: Something that would actually help every homeless person but especially vegan ones is a vegan soup kitchen. Serve everyone, but it is vegan food. That is something I could get behind.

“Gruß” rhymes with “Goose”, yes. But you have to pronounce the Ü in “Grüß”. U and Ü are not the same letter. I cant think of any phonetic example in the english language to explain how to ponounce it.

The second word you can just pronounce like the english word “Got”, yes.

1. People say Bavaria is the Texas of Germany.

2. I never heard of Grünwald before, but my limited and very short research came to the conclusion that it is not very representative of the rest of Germany.

3. You greet a Bavarian with “Grüß Gott” (good luck pronouncing that one correctly) or “Servus”.

4. Obviously you should try every kind of beer and food you see.

True. I seem to have skipped that requirement when reading the post.

I think Lidar can do this in certain circumstances. Not really practical for a shirt though.
