Every single year my top games list is dominated by Hearts of Iron IV and Stellaris -_-
I did play 61 different games though and I did enjoy a lot of the variety.
GOTY for games played this year for me would be Tunic and Caves of Qud. Very much recommend checking them out.
I mean, you're not wrong, it's just you probably got banned for spam.
I don't think the USA can handle the amount of aura farming that Mamdani has been doing recently.
Meanwhile EU5 released with incredible QA for the starting centuries, with dwindling testing done for the later ones. And I can't even blame them, knowing how much slower the game generally is.
Kind of the point, since the Snyder films were trying to portray a "realistic" Superman (whatever that means), which gave him a sort of cognitive dissonance in how little he cared about actually saving human lives, despite saying otherwise.
From what I could tell, the Bluesky OP had a private conversation with the younger fellow who simply just wanted to find out something from someone they might personally know.
It isn't wrong to ask someone a question which could be easily googleable since the question is simply a way to converse and find out more about the person you're questioning.
If they really are someone who just seeks attention, they'd just make ragebait about this topic publicly.
I'm sure they'll continue development, considering that they are planning to use any improvements to existing systems that the Fantasy Mode devs will make.
Most people hope that the combat system will improve, but time will tell.
That was during the dream sequence at the end, no? You can even correct the character saying that they're not lists, but trees or something like that.
So it averages out to being about average in difficulty then.
I mean, that's why in any such contested roll between PCs you should have both parties agree to the roll and just see how the dice land? And if they don't agree to it, they're free to roleplay it how they wish to. That's how we do it at least.
I don't see why you have to call someone's preference on how to play a "skill issue" though.
This depends on the table and their own rules honestly. In my DM's table we go for a contested roll of deception/insight between our players or between NPCs. Now this might not be RAW, but we do it that way and we like it since it creates funny and interesting scenarios.
And for the RPG horror stories bit, I don't think that if the DM is trying to force something that they'll just obey the dice blindly if they aren't in their favour. They're just gonna turn around and say "oh no, you didn't pass the DC / my NPC also has +30 to his persuasion, you lose."
I'm not worried about the stats since it's better than my rig lol, but with ram and other hardware prices increasing, it does worry me a little that it could flop due to the price.
