Not in the slightest. As long as you’re down to have some fun then that is all that matters! I’ll shoot you a proper message soonish. I’m nearly done cleaning this fuckin’ office
Already got a couple people interested! Scheduling for a DnD game still applies here so don’t worry too much about timing, we can definitely figure something out with enough people! If you’re interested, drop a message or send me one! On PC ideally but crossplay do exist apparently.
**JuryNow **is a new browser-based game where you ask a yes/no (or Option 1/2) question and get a verdict from 12 strangers around the world in 3 minutes. While you wait, you do 3 minutes of JuryDuty answering other people’s questions. There are comments or discussions, just clean, human decisions....
I don’t even understand what you’re trying to ask here
Now you have played, and assuming it was a live jury of 12 judging your question - whether it’s what shirt to wear, or whether to take a 6 month job in Antarctica (my nephew took a 2.5yr one!!) would you be less let down?
I was taught that if you don’t have anything nice to say then you shouldn’t say it. That isn’t a lesson that I always follow, but it is one that I want to follow here. That’s more what I meant on the no, you don’t.
I have no constructive feedback that I can provide you at this time and I don’t want to be actively cruel. One of my criticisms is completely out of your hands because it is the questions being asked at this time. But other things… I have no idea or alternative I can provide for things I do not like. What I thought this was is also so very different from what it is that there’s no point in discussing that because it would be like trying to drive a Buick the next star system over, not the tool for the job. Due to this, I don’t want to just list things that I dislike and be discouraging.
It literally is for fun tho. You know, considering it is a game?
Are you implying that the only people who play ranked, or should play ranked, are competetive e-sports types?
Are those competetive people not having fun?
Moreover, I’m also talking about the fact that ranked has infected everything else. Even if you play casual, people are playing like it is ranked. Adding a ranked mode to so many games has just harbored a fucking insane toxic atmosphere where even if you’re just trying to play the game casually you’re getting swept up in so much meta garbage. One example that comes to mind is Yu-Gi-Oh: Master Duel. There is a casual gaming mode and you will never be able to actually casually game. Why? Because ranked people use it for testing their own shit. This same phenomenon is across all games with ranked. The toxicity and pressure from ranked will always find its way into casual and ruin that for everyone too.
Just play unranked with comms off when you just wanna chill??
The issue comes from the fact that any games with a ranked mode also have a perpetually fucked casual mode. They stopped doing anything with ‘skill based matchmaking’ and just lump you in with whoever is available. So you’ve got ranked players who are toxic as hell who go into casual to test things or just be dicks in the exact same lobby as people who are just wanting to vibe and play the game after a long day of work.
I’ve completely given up on any games that have any ranked modes in them at all because this shit always fucking happens. Casual gaming is being consistently abandoned by game developers for competetive modes. Locking out anyone who just wants to relax and play a game. Like I used this example elsewhere, but I have others. This just comes to mind to me because it bugs me. Yugioh Master Duel. You will NEVER find a casual game there. Everything is meta’d to hell. Why? Because ranked players use casual to test their stuff. Casual players then have to start acting like ranked players in order to even play. So if someone comes in and wants to play a casual game, you are going to get instantly cheesed by broken ranked decks.
It just happens constantly across everything. Ranked mode is introduced and it pushes all the casual players out and leaves hostile competetive bullshit.
That and the community is usually pretty solid. It is exceedingly rare for me to end up diving with someone who is a douchebag or not a team player. Everyone just wants to help everyone else and spread managed democracy. I tend to get on the mic and roleplay it up to help out for extra energy lol I’m the dude pulling Starship Trooper quotes out of his ass
Anyone wanna play BG3 together?
Posted this a few days ago but it was a meme post. Figured a top level one might work a lil better, maybe....
Then your ass beat for the trouble
At least the music slaps... (PS: Wanna play BG3 together?)
