@rher rxvt-unicode (aka urxvt)
- has been around for a long time
- even your mom uses it, that’s how old it is
- has more options than you would ever need
- styling through ~/.Xresources
- lightweight and fast, never crashes
- launch its daemon (urxvtd), open one window, then every next window is basically RAM-free
- extensible with perl scripts, if you need more functionality (like tabs or url matching, mouse actions…)

Thinking back, maybe I should have oathed Hatsuchiri, buff her up to the maximum, set her as a support and rename her “Svinorez” for shits and giggles.

This is like saying “you must never salt your food”.

@Zerglingman In that one I’m playing now, there is. A little. What’s dissatisfying is that there’s so little of it now, and I’m still around. Makes me wish some big jobu would interfere and take my time again like a year ago.

When I’m wasting time on a gacha, I constantly ask myself “am I being efficient at least?” and “what am I upgrading characters for?” And after the last question I get the feeling as if staring into a deep well with dark water. It’s like you instinctively turn your head to where a carrot usually is hanged for you, but there’s none.

Good graphics for a toddlers’ game though.

> girls can be feeling cute when you’re embarassed
That was a revelation for me. Before this I thought they’re able only to tease and be snarky.
Not approaching shy girls was a mistake.

@laurel @evrys Had you known the state of things, you wouldn’t be sarcastic. Now spare me the trouble and unfollow me yourself.

Though as a quest to get a deal with an excessively wary merchant this might do. I remember one like that in a book from The Witcher series w

@Zerglingman @Morghur @PurpCat @theorytoe Speaking of playing pretend… This really depends on how well the character is written. I remember playing the first Bloodrayne. While the main girl was super attractive, and her lines were showing the character, the routine gameplay dulled the effect of “playing a dhampire killer girl”. With Bloodrayne 2 the immersion was even less.
Lara from Tomb Raider Legend was a good example of when a game is a kind of glass cube with hazardous materials, and the character is rubber gloves built-in in that cube. It runs, it shoots, it pulls levers – I wish it could run faster, though – but it’s not a character to play.
Well, maybe it’s not right to expect character done elaborately from a shooter or a puzzle game, – there are RPG for that. But I can’t name a single player RPG, that was that immersive. If only an MMORPG. I’m going to do a 180° turn and remember Hitman: Blood Money. While the Agent 47’s story is brief and happens somewhere on the background (until the last mission, that is short), throughout the game you acquire this certain way of thinking, through which the character crawls under your skin. It’s your character now. I can remember The Hammer of Thursagan mission in Wesnoth, where you lead dwarfs, there it was immersive through the reinterpretation of the game actions as the part of the story: one half of the story you get from the dialogues, and another half – from what you play through. Wesnoth has it done well: the gameplay isn’t detached far from the story and at certain points of completing a map the dialogues return, which really helps the immersion. Playing as Bill in Left4Dead had that too: when you’re limping on low health and play as a stern veteran Grandpa, like a real stubborn yet caring old man, and who is voiced good, this really aligns. I specifically went to folder with games to remember more, but all of them were immersive in the instrumental way, rather than through the character’s skin. Now that I think of it, this is surprising to myself, that I can’t name a female character (except my MMO one), that I would find immersive, even though if I would play a new game, I’d rather create a female character first. Guess it’s still about the air.

@Zerglingman @Morghur @PurpCat @theorytoe There was once a moment several years ago, when I was deep into The Long Dark (aka Siberia simulator). The game (outside the story mode) is basically surviving alone, starting on a random map, then travelling from there to other maps. You are surviving alone, there’s no other humans to interact with. Basically, the remarks of your character is all you ever hear except animals, birds, sticks cracking under your feet and then in the stove, howling of the wind and rattling of the windows. One time after some hundreds of hours I decided to play a male (why am I always playing a woman, anyway?) And this made me quickly realise, that I DON’T LIKE MALE *HUFF HUFF* *UUUGH!* DIRECTLY INTO MY EARS. Something felt really wrong and like a gay exhausted dude was following me.
It was close to the feeling that I got at my first real job (in IT), where I was surrounded by people twice my age, they were almost no women, and those that were, were far from pretty. After the uni, where there often were girls around, it felt like I was sent to an island prison.
So I’ve come to realise, that a normal male just needs a sense of womanhood around (as in soothing, admirable), otherwise it just doesn’t feel right. Being locked in a sausage company, even if it’s your peers, is depressing. A video game just provides means to bring that “womanhood” to your eyes and ears.

@Zerglingman Yes, it was Stalker memes messing with my head.

Until this day I thought that “request personally assigned to Sergei” was a joke.

@Zerglingman TIL navi is a Hebrew word for “prophet”.
