EPIC REDDIT MOMENT IRL :OOOOOOOOOOOO
Goddamn, how the fuck is it possible to be that privileged? If that's true that would have to be the shittiest, most awkward conversation possible.
"Whoa dude! I saw you opening up those beans! Great cosplay! DayZ right?"
Fucking amazing
Imagine going outside is like an adventure and everything you see is novel, as if you're noticing a feature of a game for the first time. Sounds fun tbh lmao.
Literally a comfortable imperial citizen flabbergasted that some people live without abundance.
I hate the people here just dumb as all hell
Why is every single reddit-approved videogame just the same rinse and repeat of hyperrealistic military white guys either shooting things, or in an "open world" (also shooting things)?
Not that I have anything against that particular genre, but why do we need 230498230498234092856 of them?
fornite doesn't have loot boxes (gambling) though? or did they add those after I stopped playing
Yeah but that's not gambling. You know exactly what you're going to get before paying for anything. There's tons of legit criticism to be made of Fortnite but gambling isn't one of em
Iirc those are in the other mode that frankly no one plays and isn't even available on mobile platforms
DayZ was the originator of those games though, and had originally less of a focus on just deathmatching it up with guys in military gear. The fun was running around some postapocalyptic backwood in Russia wearing a t-shirt and sweat pants with a broken arm, desperately trying to find a can opener while trying to determine if the guy you just bumped into at a depressing concrete Soviet housing block is being weirdly quiet because he doesn't speak much English or because he's secretly planning you to shank you for your can of beans
I was part of an emergency medical service that would drop in with crutches splints and blood transfusions. Dicks would pretend to be injured and try to set up ambushes.
I also established a full on Medical Academy in SWG-Emu because apparently even video games for me are just more bureaucratic work.
In all honesty it's to get people to take the view of "super tech-kitted out military white guys = protagonist" and everyone else is part of the hostile wilderness. It's not Campaign anymore, it's Player versus Environment, and it's not hard to see the settler colonial roots.
I checked out the comments,
That homeless dude has a 700 dollar inflatable paddle board on his back. I think he's just roughing it. 😉
yeah he can't be homeless, he has a . . . bag
If I were homeless, I would simply sell my bag for two weeks of rent
Well, it's less "care about the dirt" and more "trying to not get sick opening the can."
Still it's an interesting trick, might not be the best for discarded Tuna, but something you can heat up over a fire would definitely be a good way of going if needed.
get the condescending crap outta here and own up to your dumbassery
Ahh makes sense. I revisited the game after not playing for years and was astonished at how little progress had been made.
