I’ve been playing a lot of small indie games and god I wish the rest of the game industry understood that the whole point of farming and grinding is so that in some point of the journey the player can go HAHAHA I PLANNED FOR THIS and pull off crazy crap earlier than they should be able to. Like Teenage Exocolonist letting me just walk past all the checks when I’m outside the colony and go to the boss immediately because I farmed the fuck out of my perception skill should technically be game ruining but it’s not. I planned for this so I could get the ascension ending easily while simultaneously putting the rest of my effort into figuring out as much about engineering as possible at the same time so I can pull off a full shield run. Having advantages in certain contexts should allow me to interact with it in a way that opens an entirely new path for me to take. Poisoning the campfire survivors at the very beginning of my Inscryption run lets me take a route where I focus on building up the cards I already have instead of hunting down new ones. Advantages are good!! Grinding so you’re high enough level to beat one boss only for the rest of the game to balance itself by making everything else many levels higher than you once again is unrewarding. If your player cannot face your game from multiple angles then maybe it’s not that worth exploring. If your player over relies on an ability they spent a long time working up and they’ve made the game too easy make it so that steers them into a new situation where they have to innovate on their strategy to get things going again. Just hand me a game like Inscryption where I farm the whole game with fecundity decks and then get to Kaycee’s Mod and realize I have to relearn the whole game from a completely new perspective now that I can’t rely on that anymore. If it’s just a matter of “the numbers are too high we have to turn all the other numbers up too” then do the numbers really mean anything anymore or are you just keeping me stuck in a role where I’m saying to myself “once I have the advantage I’ll be able to explore so many new things” but then never letting me have any advantage until near the end when the world has lost its charm because everything is just a damn numbers game.

Sulluvan knows/has probs met the Witch King right? Maybe before he spoiled or sumn? Did the witch king have anything to say when Sulluvan went to collect him finally?
honestly i dont think he had much to say!!! sulluvan....sort of met him long ago? i always think about a mini-episode centered around sulluvan at that time (he was just a child all those thousands of years ago, and his father was the lord of the undertakers, so little sulluvan just kind of shadowed his father in dealings with the witch king and others,,...really the point of the episode is its a flashback on sulluvans part that is actually focused on the merchant, who was ALSO alive at that time, looked and acted exactly the same, and was out and about his usual business of selling things. he sold little sulluvan a little pinwheel toy, and sulluvan reflects on that moment anytime the merchant is brought up. hes afraid of him, to be honest)
but back to the point, sulluvan by nature is supposed to be impartial!!! thats his role as the lord of the undertakers. he cant choose sides (which is why he doesnt participate in the fight against the witch king). he probably offers the witch king the chance to "redeem his wicked nature" by becoming an undertaker and "paying back the debt he owes" by working to deliver souls to the afterlife, to which the king replies "I have committed no wickedness."

someone on Instagram saying “life doesn’t have a dress code, you can wear anything you want no one is stopping you” and there’s something a bit fucking irritating about people going “um actually, men are” “but some women would get beat for this in other countries” “uhhh I’d get hate crimed if I did” “you’ll get mugged lmao” and other variations. my GOD it’s not saying everyone in a dangerous situation or dangerous town should do it, it’s saying if you have the means to do what you want safely then you should bc someone staring at you shouldn’t stop you!!!! everything that tries to be positive online in the form of videos is always full of sooooo so much negativity no matter what the video is discussing!!!! my fucking god!!!! and fuck the weirdo losers like “okay so why can’t I walk around naked then” I know what you’re trying to do and also there ARE places for that, too, fuck offfff FUCK OFF!!!!!!!!
