Do not fact check this just trust me

Tried Death Must Die a while back. The problem with making a game that's "Vampire Survivors mixed with Hades" is that your game is gonna be compared to Hades. A game which has no weaknesses and is at least an 8/10 in every category possible. Amazing gameplay, music, visual design, writing, progression, replayability, anything you can think of, Hades is great at it. So when your Hades-inspired game does have weaknesses, they suddenly become very glaring in comparison.

And the biggest weakness Death Must Die has imo is the writing and the characters. It's basically non-existant what does exist is pretty bad. Now sure, Vampire Survivors has hardly any writing or story either, but Death Must Die clearly takes inspiration from Hades in that regard, not only are your powers given to you by gods, they also have a voice line every time you get one of their powers. Except where the Hades gods have entire books of dialogue where they talk about themselves, the player character, their many relationships with other characters etc., Death Must Die has none of that. The 3rd time I encountered the fire goddess, her dialogue was already reduced to "Let's light it up!" or "Coming in hot!"-type of one-liners.

Given how the playable characters are written in a completely different way with no voice acting and different typing gimmicks (like how one uses xd and >.> in her dialogue), it feels like the gods and their voice lines are literally just there because that's how Hades does it. Except it sucks here and makes the game actively worse. Vampire Survivors gets by with no characters and no dialogue, which is way preferable to bad characters and bad dialogue.

Edit: Just because this sounds so negative I wanna say that Death Must Die is not a bad game at all, in terms of gameplay it does the Vampire Survivors x Hades thing really well. The graphics are completely fine for an indie game made by a small team. I think the main characters each having their gimmick in how they speak is kinda neat. It's just the terrible writing that makes it come off like a cheap knockoff when it isn't.

They're cleaning the dogs

They don't feel safe, folks! Even in their own homes, they don't feel safe, isn't that crazy?

The Dems are such gigantic clowns they make Guaido look like a serious politician

Uuughhh i am going to pOWER POST

Does anyone know a good AI audio translation tool? I gotta translate a 12-minute interview from Swedish into English.

There's no way Elon Musk is beefing with Asmongold on twitter. Maybe the biggest right-wing content creator who isn't explicitly a political commentator. The undisputed king of unhygienic reactionary gamers. This is supposed to be your guy. His audience is exactly the kind of audience you should be trying to court, the audience most susceptible to your anti-woke bullshit. It's unbelievable just how stupid Elon is. I know I should be like but his sheer idiocy is just too upsetting. What an absolute simpleton.

Yeah that's for sure what she meant, just phrased it in a funny way

I remember when my chinese language partner sent me a little text she wrote in English about her home city Chengdu. There was a line in there about the city's culture where she said that in Chengdu, "you will often see homosexuals holding hands!"

She 100% meant this as a positive thing btw, she's a total sweetheart.

Calling out my 8-year-old labrador retriever for her repeated attempts at emotional manipulation.

When we come home from a walk, I give her a treat and usually go upstairs to my room. Every time I do that, she'll look at me like "why are you leaving me? i don't wanna be alone, pls stay here"

But here's the thing: She's allowed to go upstairs and she knows that. It's not like she's scared of the stairs either, sometimes she'll nap in my sister's room which is right next to mine. She prefers to be downstairs but she could absolutely just follow me if she didn't wanna be alone, instead she tries to guilt me into staying downstairs with her. Her deviousness cannot be overstated.

They could but they won't, for the same reason you don't see many people from mainland China past the great firewall. It's just more convenient to use an alternative site.

Trump was the harm reduction candidate

So it'll protect me from bullets aimed at my sides but my head and neck are wide open?

I think he's just exchanging one mask for another. That man has no personality.

Tried Balatro. It seems really well made and like there's a lot of depth to it, but I personally don't see the core gameplay being interesting enough for me.

Athorituraniaism confirmed??
