Had you gone as far as the article you would have seen the disclaimer that makes it clear it’s sarcasm.

It’s not as simple as motivated teachers and communism, though they are necessary - the entire system of teaching needs to be rethought from the ground up. It uses one-size fits all solutions that aren’t even the best choice for most neurotypical kids, and leave neurodivergent, vulnerable, and top and bottom performing children unsupported. Everything from classroom discipline (e.g not fidgeting) to sitting at a table and chair causes problems in a classroom, and then the kids get blamed for not molding to the classroom environment.

Yeah, not to disparage his hard work organising beforehand and 2 years in prison (so far), but ultimately all he did was park really badly. At most he should be getting a few points on his license.

Aww man, I got

Constantly working (not into it)

Be gay

Always playing map painting games

And

If they were happy with 10 give them Mint, they won’t even notice if you skin it.

Honestly I hated BG3 and PoE - I think the 5e base is just terrible, so any changes are just a bandaid to an already bad system, even when it’s PoE’s rolemaster-like damage. I’d hold up D:OS and to a lesser extent 2 as CRPGs that showed what can be done with a system designed for the computer game rather than using premade ones, and RT as an example on how you can expand on existing systems while keeping the core mechanics.

Personally I really enjoyed the character building, combat, and decisions, but it’s highlights the fundamental flaw of TTRPG-based CRPGs - they either make them as close to the ttrpg as possible to draw in the ttrpg players, or they simplify and streamline things to make it more accessible for people who haven’t played the ttrpg, and either way leave one group dissatisfied.
You’re spot on with the kingdom building though, it sucked in the original AP, it sucks in every homebrew I’ve tried to wrestle with, and it sucks in the CRPG. I just don’t think you can properly engage at that kind of scale when you’re meant to be playing a single individual.

Same, I really liked how streamlined PF felt in comparison when it came out.

About 35 million last year.

The skins and p2w shit you get from micro transactions aren’t a fraction as cool as DK mode in Goldeneye or BIGDADDY in AoE.

I moved a year or two ago and the bar for entry has dropped down close to windows levels, the problem is that installing an OS is still more than people want to do. If major computer retailers were offering something like Mint by default and Windows as a paid upgrade, like some gaming computer retailers do, you’d see a quick jump in Linux use just due to the convenience.

I’ll never forget passing my local chippy when I lived in Edinburgh and seeing they’d handwritten “almost” on the “WE WILL DEEP FRY ANYTHING” sign.

If you’re going to go to the pubs for British food don’t do it in London. Don’t do it in a city at all, to be honest, all the really good ones are out in tiny villages or the middle of a moor.

I can’t think of any dough that would end up like wonder bread, you should have gone full Karen. Granny smiths stewed with sugar (and optionally spices) in a short crust case is the right way to do it, though they did get the smothered in custard until soggy bit right.

The calypso twins in Borderlands 3. The streamer schtick got old quickly, and the game just took control away from you whenever they showed up so they could act with impunity. They were just annoying and kind of whiny so the “sympathetic” backstory didn’t do anything for me. I remember the final boss being deeply unimpressive after all the build up, too.

Isn’t that Knights of the Old Republic?

Dark Heresy is on the horizon too.
