Yeah, I like this mechanic, I want to see it tried by other games.
Unfortunately, i think Mystic Veil is too multiplayer solitare for me. And it seems like the winning strategy is always to snatch up all the Growth cards before anyone else so you can eventually draw nearly your whole deck every turn.
Dice Forge’s gimmick is that it’s a dice builder (rather than a deck builder). Fun if you like rolling dice a lot and finding out what you get.
In a similar vein, Dice Throne is basically Yahtzee, but the combos you make are attacks at other players. Do I take this safe, easy combo, or reroll it all to go for my special attack?
Diplomacy’s gimmick is that there is no randomizer other than how much you trust the other players. I feel like that isn’t used enough in games. Even something like Secret Hitler has randomness of the deck.
Root’s gimmick is that every player is a different faction that plays completely differently from everyone else. Makes finding a group to play with in person a challenge (due to the learning curve), but is surprisingly well balanced.
If Obama had tried to take a third term, trumpers (tea partyers at the time) would have literally rioted.
Well, it depends on how conflicted his own supporters would be. I have to assume there are a good number of 2A defenders who would take issue with this. Certainly a good chunk of them subsist on the koolaid at this point, but each extreme decision like this is the line for at least some of his base.
If Obama had done the same thing, Jan 6th would have happened much earlier.
I understand your situation very well, because I was in the same spot when I deleted my Facebook 10 years ago. Turns out, it’s possible to do both things. The ability to keep in touch with people was not invented when social media was. It really does just come down to whether you want to be on the platform or not.
We’re going in circles now. Everyone you listed uses the service because everyone else uses the service. If you want to stop using it, stop using it, if you don’t, don’t say you do. Cheers.
So we’re not talking about “influencers”, we’re literally talking about people you are friends with? Hah! Fuck right off! Yes, if enough of your friend group leaves the rest will also leave, that’s the cut-and-dry scenario I laid out to begin with 🤣.
From my bubble, Meta and Zuckerberg are widely despised by the general public and have been for the better part of the last couple decades. I’ve never met a person who wants to be on their platform, only people who have to be. But you’re probably right, most of the users probably don’t even know who Zuckerberg is, or that Facebook ever renamed themselves.
But are the personalities you want to follow on there really pulling an audience that…simple?
Sorry you got downvoted. It’s not an unpopular sentiment, it’s just a very tired one at this point. If everyone who made that argument instead just left, the problem wouldn’t exist.
And yeah, the people you follow are there because it’s where their audience is. If you want them to move, you gotta be the change you wanna see.
I mean, you’re here, so I have to assume I’m preaching to the choir to some extent.
Tesla and SpaceX CEO made two stiff-armed salutes that many interpreted as a fascist gesture.
🤦 the fear of retaliation is real with these sites.
You wanna know why they’re there? Because you’re there. The ol’ catch-22 of social media walled gardens. Inconvenient for literally everyone except the guys running them.
Here’s hoping people figure out that the Fediverse is specifically designed to solve that problem.
After a decade of wondering why my friends still used Instagram, they’re finally talking about uninstalling it this week. So I’m all for these new features, keep em coming zuck!
Keepass is
Aw man, as fun as that sounds, I’m never going to convince anyone to play it with me lol
