Super late response but lifetime chanel medieval teen romance sums up my the feeling I got from the game. It perfectly resonated with me.

I enjoy listening to audiobooks that are pretty much escapist power fantasy's and they have more interesting worlds and characters than veil guard did.

    I couldn't get into veil guard. The combat was pretty good and it looks pretty. The characters were annoying and seemed... Type cast? All their dialogue seemed corny. Maybe they get better throughout the story but the story also didn't grab me.

    I played all the others and the mass effect series multiple times. I even enjoyed Andromeda for what it was (though I quit at the final mission save for some reason).

    Roblox fascinates me as someone who casually knows it. There's a huge ecosystem there just sitting inside a bigger gross child exploitation ring.

    Billions of money sifting through kids hands while adults play simulation games with hardcore rules

    Or so I'm led to believe.

    I have a friend who bought a home. Pretty envious of it. It's not super nice (but it is a Luxor) or in a great location. But it's also not run down or in a bad location. Right next to a busy road but is close to shops and restaurants.

    He's 36. I personally don't think I'll ever own property. Not sure what we'll do with my parents house but that will be interesting when the time comes.

    Edit: my friend isn't well off. He just saved money enough for a down payment and bought it during COVID.

    Yeah man you hit it right on the head. None of these companies can be good because by nature they can't. Decent companies can exist and they recognize customers as who are important.

    Customers want a lot. Valve delivers a lot of what they want, gas lights some (I just assume), and the ones who are fucked are few comparatively speaking.

    I had to download a file search program because Windows is such shit. This program searches both my harddrives in no time and iirc shows folder file sizes.

    I've used windows since the 90s. I'm finally switching to Linux when I get a new PC.

    I recently drank a rose flavored sparkling water (Waterloo brand I think) that tasted almost exactly like alcohol (and rose I guess). I took one sip and had to throw the rest out.

    You might like it for the taste and none of the effects.

    There were more than one person using different techniques to screw with the LLM bots. Haven't seen anyone but them personally in a whole. I think they also mentioned their job or hobbies include something with old language.

    I highly doubt changing a couple characters screws with the data scraping much. Or that it matters if it does but I also understand wanting to protect your own thoughts and words.
