Derse @derseboom.bsky.social · 31/07/2026I went on roll20 for the first time in forever because I wanted to play some Pathfinder 2e and almost all the listings are just full of AI slop. Killllll me. 010
Derse @derseboom.bsky.social · 31/07/2026I wish I could find a local pf2e or draw steel group. I have some old friends from my roll20 days that hit me up every so often for a game but it's always 5e. I just physically can't find the excitement for it any more. I want to play with the new toys lmao. 010
Derse @derseboom.bsky.social · 28/07/2026Oh I fully agree with you. I'm saying masquerading as a hero and doing the "lalalala they're just monsters so I don't care" thing really sucks. I want to know my character sucks and feel it when I play into their traits. Like robbing people on the road or burning down a village. 010
Derse @derseboom.bsky.social · 28/07/2026I don't want to feel justified. I want to feel like anethema. I want to get that weird, awful feeling in my gut when I go against what I would do as an actual person. That's roleplaying. Let me do atrocities and recognize them as atrocities. Otherwise it feels very, very bland. 000
Derse @derseboom.bsky.social · 28/07/2026Maybe this is weird but when I'm playing a murderous asshole character I want to feel like a murderous asshole. Evil characters are fun because they're evil, you get to step outside of the norm and do things that make you uncomfortable because it creates interesting roleplaying moments. 200
Reposted by DerseComplex Oscillator @mfelps.bsky.social · 28/07/2026My only Odyssey discourse is more people should go watch The Return (2024) directed by Pasolini and starring Ralph Fiennes and Juliette Binoche. 031
Derse @derseboom.bsky.social · 28/07/2026Also it's the loudest movie I've ever seen. I had to plug my ears during a lot of the action scenes and almost all the ocean scenes because my eardrums were getting blasted out. I would say just don't see it in IMAX unless you're bringing earplugs. 010
Derse @derseboom.bsky.social · 28/07/2026There's a lot of little quibbly things I didn't care for like the set design and the dialogue being flat and poorly written but most of all for all the spectacle it felt very unimaginative. It just felt like all the island visits dragged on too long without keying in on what made them interesting. 120
Derse @derseboom.bsky.social · 28/07/2026I think my biggest criticism though is that my fuckin ear drums almost got blown out in the theater. I didn't notice until too late that people had brought earplugs and when I looked around everyone had their fingers in their ears during all the ocean and action scenes. The wave crashes were SO LOUD 120
Derse @derseboom.bsky.social · 28/07/2026I did watch the movie and I do honestly agree with the deliveries being very wooden. I think that's less on the A-list actors who are good in every other role though and more the result of the sub-par script. I also thought the costuming and set design looked really bad. Just not a Nolan fan tbh. 111

Derse @derseboom.bsky.social · 28/07/2026Damn, I remember this game. I forget where I played it but I feel like it was on some website like armor games or something. I loved playing stuff like this and Sonny. 100

Derse @derseboom.bsky.social · 26/07/2026Just finished. 2/10. Dogshit. I need three days to decompress from how fucking L O U D it was. It's like a bunch of people sat down and focus grouped how to make the most overstimulating bullshit ever put to screen. I would never recommend this movie to another living soul. Go read the book instead. 000
Derse @derseboom.bsky.social · 26/07/2026I'm two hours into the Odyssey and this is possibly the biggest gilded turd I have ever seen. The most entertainment value I've gotten from the movie so far is laughing at the actors stumbling around in some of the shittiest armor props I've ever seen. Jesus Christ what an awful movie. 110

Derse @derseboom.bsky.social · 24/07/2026I really tried but gave up after an hour of going up and down the side of the highway with acai smoothie soaking my shirt and getting rerouted in random directions. Oh and I couldn't cancel the order. Fuck you Uber. Fuck you Uber. Fuck you Uber. Fuck you Uber. Fuck you Uber. Fuck you Uber. Fuck you. 100
Derse @derseboom.bsky.social · 24/07/2026Oh and I lost signal as soon as I hit the main streets. Bonus bullshit: my device kept saying it was overheating for the first time ever five minutes after leaving the house. 000
Derse @derseboom.bsky.social · 24/07/2026Did my first bike delivery. It was fucking awful. Uber eats navigation fucked up numerous times & eventually gave up and booted me to Google maps. That fucked up too! Also almost got attacked by a pitbull! & the order was mostly open drinks! They leaked through my backpack onto my legs & back! Wooo! 210
Derse @derseboom.bsky.social · 24/07/2026XCOM and a lot of others got this right. Your units are important but losing them kinda cooks up these cool character narratives in your head and makes you try even harder not to lose them next time. I'm also really onboard with the idea that fucking up too much in an RPG could kill a run 000

Derse @derseboom.bsky.social · 19/07/2026I've never understood that because that's kinda the point. You WANT someone to come and do it better because that's how art advances. We wouldn't have anywhere near the amount of great media that we have if people didn't do that. 020
Derse @derseboom.bsky.social · 18/07/2026Might as well throw disco Elysium in there for the same reasons. A huge part of what makes that game so excellent is exactly what you're describing. I think one without the other kinda falls flat in most cases. 000
Derse @derseboom.bsky.social · 18/07/2026This is why Morrowind world building is so good. You get the intense, macro-level politics, cosmology and cultural definition but also get more personal stories. I love that this is reflected both in the in-game books and the world itself as you're playing. 041
Derse @derseboom.bsky.social · 18/07/2026This unironically happened to me in cyberpunk the other night 020
Derse @derseboom.bsky.social · 17/07/2026I just started doing carousel maintenance and bike deliveries and I'm so happy I don't have to try and grind out a living with art. I want to keep enjoying my hobbies as hobbies and not try to make them into a career. At least for now. Probably never unless I get into game design and really like it. 0100
