Team Fortress ain't perfectly balanced and thoroughly thought out though. It's just a fun meaty shooter, that's it, and it's alright :)
Of course it has to be somewhat balanced - healers should not get super OP, but they should be good enough for players to give up damaging abilities and still be important in a team.
There could be an in-between option added though, fair enough.
I don't think the MMO setting is the right fit for my idea anyway.
Though priests are undoubtedly great. Had much fun damage dealing with Shadow priest, especially in the WotLK era. Consistent damage, decent control, practically endless mana pool.
Rape is rampant in Russian military and prisons.
Russia took a more original turn: as the key interest rate approached 20% APY, legislation was implemented to subsidize mortgage to people with kids (6% APY).
With rent prices soaring along (up to 75% in some places, about 40% on average year on year), housing market simply prices out everyone without kids, making living conditions way worse.
As the economy grows and progress creates exponentially more wealth, it's only natural that people demand ever higher standards of living. This is good, this is how it should be.
At the same time, generational theory is bullshit. People in each age bracket are very different, and in each of them you can find what you would call more sensitive or more tough people. And it is good, too! Some people are better at promoting change, some people are better at withstanding the status quo. Both are necessary if we want to have constant growth on a strong foundation. Oh, and every generation has stupid freaks. A lot of them, in fact.
LGBTQ+ youth defending Palestine is not about promoting LGBTQ+ rights. It's about fighting for a more fundamental right - right for people to live. No one in their sane mind expects Palestinian Arabs to go under rainbow flags, but it doesn't matter for as long as life for everyone in the region is endangered. The people you call "weak" are protesting in defence of basic human rights - something "strong" people fought hard for - that are undermined in the world of today. They'd rather see a region that is unfriendly to LGBTQ+ than one that is mass grave.
And you're right - famous people shouldn't be our role models! They just often happen to be so as they are in the spotlight. But we should promote other voices - scientists, engineers, economists, we should promote meaningful art, etc. etc. Parents are not always a perfect role model, as they bring with them a load of stereotypes, cognitive distortions, and are commonly conservative in the wide sense of the word, which hinders the development of new ways of thinking. But they too are undoubtedly important.
My message is clearly in good faith, and you just try to take it down by stating that I "know it's wrong".
No, it is not wrong.
Notice how I didn't state my support for any third party in particular. I do not believe they can change the game, nor am I blind to imagine their candidates have any sort of influence.
What I do say is that Democrats should lose their electorate when they don't deliver on their promises - or else they don't have to do it, really.
Under those circumstances, voting for a third party allows to keep them accountable, while not giving your vote straight to Republicans, either.
Sounds so wholesome :)
Seriously though.
Bought an old second-hand Brother printer a while ago and couldn't be happier.
Model is like 10 years old, yet all spare parts and cartridges as well as just toner are readily available and the printer is perfectly fine (damn how precise laser printers are!).
They just make it happen.
Please elaborate
You can always be vocal about why you didn't vote Democrat. Voting does not mean you are restricted from saying who you voted for, protesting their decisions, and organizing.
"Less terrible of the two" is a path to gradually degrade the rights and quality of life for everyone.
If Dems are not forced to change, we won't see much improvement. For as long as they're not pressured by anything but literal fascism, they're better off serving their sponsors than their own electorate.
A fairly small percentage of Democratic voters vocally saying "fuck you" is enough to force Dems to either change and finally deliver on their promises or lose. Let's hope they'll be able to do the former.
Yeah, Mercy was one of my inspirations.
I feel like one of the reasons FPS scene is like that is exactly because players have no choices left but to pick up a gun and shoot enemies. Without that, you are useless in any classical FPS composition, regardless of the role, which alienates players that want to see other types of gameplay.
Simply put, if you are not a "killer" in an FPS game, you have nothing to do there, and that's why only those players remain. Something has to be changed inside the genre.
