While the OP meant it the way he answered you, the way I see it used most often colloquially is that when someone or something does the heavy lifting especially in gaming, they are providing the bulk of the work. Like doing the heavy lifting in a team game equates to carrying the team, or saying a character does the heavy lifting instead of the player, means the character is overpowered and carrying the player (or vice versa).

Warm water is the waste product because it’s easier dump the water than to cool the water. Returning the warm water to a usable state is much more expensive at scale.

I don’t like bow you cast that stone.

I wasn’t considering those people since they’ll never really be labelled pedophiles due to hiding their mental illness from the world (only really disclosing it to mental health professionals if ever) and never acting on it.

I guess this is also the difference between getting caught or not. To me, rapist that is never caught is still a rapist even if they are never labelled as such, so a pedophile that hides it forever successfully is still a pedophile.

Disclaimer

Yes agreed.

People spreading CSAM are beyond terrible, but I don’t agree with this generalization. Pedophiles don’t choose to be pedophiles, so as long as they control themselves and avoid harming anyone, I don’t like labelling them as evil monsters.

I don’t follow anime, I specifically prefer reading. I’m not the guy who initially commented btw, and I’ve been using lemmy before sync. As a 14 year redditor I’m well aware of what growth will look like for lemmy.

Nah he’s right. I follow fighting games which are practically dead on lemmy, manga which is growing and has posts and votes now but still never has comments, etc. At least the tech stuff is an interest for me, unlike him.

Because NRS actually has been putting out quality games for casuals such as mortal kombat. Unfortunately, they have a few divergences from traditional games that segments of the community don’t like, such as a block button. So a lot of the well regarded fighting games are still from japanese devs. Examples are street fighter from capcom, guilty gear from arcsys, tekken from namco. None of which had the full package triple a game experience before sf6. Unfortunately western fighting games might have been better for consumers, but for a long time and often even now people within the fgc have not considered them real fighting games. Same applies to smash, though an additional part of the divide there is because they’re very secular. Smashers play only smash and don’t play other games often, where an evo entrant this year was likely to enter both sf6 and strive.

Everything else, actually, since at first I didn’t know what was causing the animation locks. I’m a fighting game player so moves are described differently for me.

Monster hunter

The game is great and easily the best japanese fighting game experience for casuals. (Mechanically I prefer anime fighters though.) For once a Japanese game has all the bells and whistles instead of almost purely focusing on the multiplayer.

The cosmetics are what they are. At least it’s not p2w but it’s up to consumers to not spend if they don’t agree with paying more in a game they already bought.

Edit: downvote me all you want but the truth is that street fighter 6 was a very big step forward for japanese fighting games in terms of what they offer consumers. The fgc hasn’t had games that can truly appeal to and bring in new players so I can’t help but be happy for it. The only exceptions would be NRS’s games and smash.

I think Halo is a pretty cool guy.

Time witch steals back her powers to become a god but is defeated by the now human and unsuperpowered protagonist who is given a bin of nuclear batteries from the white house by the president of the United States.

I’ve only played ryza 1 but probably atelier?

Sounds like megaman x.

Can’t personally recommend but I know people that have used it. For me I just read manga if it’s the source material. Mainly because it’s faster usually.
