      Very cool to be a law enforcement officer and nodding your head in approval at the things your "Killology" instructor has to say

      My favorite fact about Grossman is he's never actually killed anyone. He's training psycho murderers based on his own weird fantasy mindscape.

      I can't play skyrim if someone is watching because my worst most psychopathic potential comes out in that game. The last time I played I literally drowned my character in guilt for having killed an innocent person to test out my cannibalism ability. I might try to play again and do a more noble character, it might just be because I started playing when I was in a dark place. But yeah, definitely gaming can reveal some badness in the brain other media can't, and people should consider that.

    I was going to say it's just a game and we all know it's fake so it doesn't really matter.

    When I play Stellaris I just try to increase the living standards of my population and end up building a xenophile federation.

        Call me a freak but I enjoy micro managing 20+ planets and fine tuning my economy down to the last energy credit.

          I never really figured out how the economy systems worked aside from the basics and would get bored wiping out all opposition to my fully automated luxury gay space empire.

            Its funny because you can really maximize your economy by creating worlds that center around one purpose like research or mining worlds. That said I usually play purely reactive and create multipurpose worlds that arent super effectiv but at least are somewhat self sustained. (Which im sure is not the most effectiv way to play but it brings me into the late game)

              Yeah I would typically start making specialized worlds in late game, seems like the most effective strategy in most 4x now that I think about it.

      Every empire in stellaris is either the culture or imperium of man, I hope in stellaris two paradox gets rid of the ethics system and just tries to lean people away from committing galactic genocide.

        Unfortunately the technical implementation of the game highly incentivizes xenophobic genocide because a massively populated and diverse galaxy will make your CPU spontaneously combust. Xeno compatibility is still unusable to this day.

    I feel bad about it, tried it as robots with grid amalgamation (melting organics into energy, although it's also implied to be a matrix style thing I dunno). Now I exclusively play as xenophile shared burdens space commies.
