I like the increased focus on annoying the player rather than outright killing them.

The original game could be a bit more tedious than funny at time since every troll just send you back to the start

I mostly know it from Frankie stream which has been working on the art for some of the bosses

So there should be a nice mix of really cute and really gnarly stuff

not many small indie rts out there so ill be happily following this. I also like the look of the buildings and units a lot. Its very distinct.

The tau aren't without issues, but i do appreciate how they are one of the only sparks of genuine goodness in the grim reality that is warhammer 40k.

I think it would rob them of a big part of their identity if they were just as selfish and corrupt as everyone else.

I think they are walking a tightrope where they have to brag about AI to investors since its the latest big scam that will get them money, but they also have to deny it because the audience who actually buy their products utterly hates it.

I feel like dread tried to reach some kind of compromise between being open and linear, which made it excel in neither.

It tries to be a bit like fusion with story events changing the map, but it only really happens twice with the reactor freeze and the release of the X.
November 22, 2025 at 3:43 AM
The X are my favorite antagonist overall as the linear nature of the game allowed for a constant flow of events that made them feel like an active threat and kept you on your toes.

Some of my favorite moments being the one where they try blowing up the station and the power shutdown.

Through fusion is a close second with the X infection forcing much of your original armor to be removed, making it that you get a combination of aquiring moves from the X and having new ones sent by the federations through the terminals. one of the x stealing the varia suit for itself was also cool

I think Prime 2 had the most interesting idea by having the various ings who stole your power-ups actually use them in various boss fights.
November 22, 2025 at 3:38 AM
The autorisation concept is really just bizzare, especially when it comes to non-weapon stuff.

Sure, the placements of powerups could be a bit contrived in the past, but never as contrived as adam waiting until you are being crushed by a giant fire demon to allow you to use the varia suit.

Seem like something similar happened with hellsing.

....and game of throne but we dont talk about that one...

Its a general lesson that before learning to do something right, you have to first figure out what you`re doing wrong and that cant happen if you dont make the first drawing.
November 22, 2025 at 2:13 AM
I think part of it was also how relatable the mistakes werem because yeah, its definately a weird angle to draw.
November 22, 2025 at 2:06 AM
Yeah, but then Zohan can just rizz him again. Thats the perk with him constantly changing his tune, it can work both ways.

If only we had a bunch of really charismatic socialists at the ready. We could turn this country into an utopia in the blink of an eye.
November 22, 2025 at 1:11 AM
Don`t we all likes to take a midnight stroll on the suspiciously open-air castle interior?
November 22, 2025 at 1:09 AM
I`ll keep that in mind
November 22, 2025 at 1:08 AM
Nah sorry, was just distributing likes as i usually do.

I dont look at the posts that closely unless there's something that feels iffy about it.
November 22, 2025 at 1:05 AM
If you dont want to go as far as banning, you definitely need to at least closely monitor their experience of the game as the company is extremely manipulative and doesnt care to protect their audience from dangerous people.

Eels are usually predators

These kinds of lampreys are just an odd case where their are both a predator and a parasite as their hunting methods consist in latching upon their prey to feast on their inner fluids.

To be fair, the mouth of most animals looks kind of horrifying. Its not wonder that showing teeth is usually a sign of agression.
November 22, 2025 at 12:10 AM
Did a quick research and not seeing anything on Lamprey bloodletting, so im guessing its not an actual thing and RFK jr is just being a massive dumbass that wont follow safety instructions when handling dangerous animals.
November 22, 2025 at 12:08 AM
I know. I think the comparison mostly rise because they feed similarly (through not that much as i previously established.Lamprey very much dont seem like a good substitute for leeches in any way.)
