Image transcription: A YouTube comment on a video on Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus. The comment, by Diego Sosa, reads: "Hello everyone, I'm a centrist liberal and let me say that the first Wolfenstein is too damn hard and I can't get past the first level. The enemies won't listen to my reasoned discourse on why their ideology is flawed and just shoot me to death. I have a lot of weapons at my disposal, but killing the Nazis would make me as bad as them. Does anyone have links to a walkthrough that would allow me to keep the moral high ground?"

Well, Prism is forked from PolyMC, which is forked from MultiMC. Prism lets you download directly from Curse and FTB, while MultiMC doesn't.

Prism Launcher is easily the best third-party launcher, hands down. It's really useful and intuitive, with instances (basically it lets you make seperate game installs for different modpacks or versions or whatever) and lets you easily install any mod, modloader, modpack, resourcepack, or shaderpack from all the major platforms (CurseForge, Modrinth, FTB, Technic, etc.)

Stormyfemme is talking about a certain phenomenon on r/AskReddit, where a lot of the questions asked survey (usually) women about their sex lives in a way that makes it obvious that OP gets their rocks off to the answers. So basically the implication is that you're doing the same thing.

(I'm not saying I necessarily agree with Stormyfemme's assessment of your motivations. I'm just giving context.)

I remember getting one from a fascist saying they wanted to "tie people like [me] up and drag their bodies from [their] truck"

If by "regulate" you mean "forcibly dissolve them and charge their CEOs with crimes against humanity and nature", then I agree

Ah, the Oceangate maneuver

That part of the joke is that "ough" can represent /oสŠ/. Not that it WOULD, that it CAN.

And besides, the "th" in "though" is pronounced /รฐ/, and the "T" in "Tony" isn't.

"ough" can be pronounced /oสŠ/ in words like "though" or "dough"

I haven't watched the TV series, but I'm a big enthusiast of the games.

I'd say start at the start, especially if you're alright with more old-school games. The first two are (sometimes punishingly hard) isometric RPGs that I personally had a blast playing. Some of the later games have little references to them that you might miss, too.

Get Fallout 2 on GOG instead of Steam if you can, the version on Steam is the censored European version that removes all the child characters and quite a bit of content with them (since you had the option to kill them in the game's open world environment, despite the game heavily penalising child murder).

If turn-based combat and 90s graphics really repulse you (totally fair, I know they're not everyone's cup of tea), you could try playing the 3D games instead, which are essentially first-person RPGs with FPS elements. Fallout 3 is alright, the story isn't that good, and the gunplay just feels a bit off, but the environments are really well-crafted and are fun to traverse.

If you have to play one Fallout game though, I would pick Fallout New Vegas. It's mostly made by the guys who made the first two games, and they really really knocked the ball out of the park. It's still got the slightly awkward gunplay of the third game, but everything else is really well done. The story especially is probably one of the best video game narratives I've experienced (putting it up there with those of Disco Elysium and Undertale).

I haven't played Fallout 4, so I can't really give you any recommendation there.

 

Image transcription: an screenshot of a Twitter exchange.

A Tweet from @poppy_haze reads "German General Heinz Guderian, while being interrogated by the Americans, broke down crying explaining how the US paratroopers guarding the prison, would chase him from his cell to the showers screaming 'RUN NAZI, RUN! FASTER NAZI! FASTER!'"

@Hanasaku_Yuri responds with a post on r/Fortnite edited to read: "I. FUCKING. HATE. ALLIED. CAPTIVITY. The Paratroopers at the prison make me run up and down the halls and shout go Nazi boy go"

Image transcription: a screenshot of a Twitter post by @YUYA_FUNGAM1. It reads "every time i see this fucking image i think its a yakuza screenshot without fail". Attached is a still from iCarly of a man standing next to a vending machine, his slight resemblance to Yakuza protagonist Kiryu and the third-person perspective of the frame indeed giving the illusion of the still being from a Yakuza game.
