There's a lot you can nitpick about the reboot but for its time, it was a phenomenal game. Had a lot of fun with it

Depends on the faux leather. There absolutely are alternatives to leather that are less environmentally taxing than leather. Leather needs to be cured, for example, and the entire leather production process is very water-intensive and involves a lot of nasty chemicals. So apart from using a dead animal's skin to wear, it's also abysmal for the environment.

I'd say no because horses can't consent to being used for this. Horse riding is generally not considered vegan either
Here's a really good video on this: https://youtu.be/sJVXV14Vv3M?si=Zq0sYsNh1_wK0BVT

Well deserved. It poses a huge wall to people who expect another third-person action adventure game but gets so rewarding - much more so than other souls-likes in my books - once you get the hang of it that you can't put it down. Easily one of my favourite games of all time

How many posts at a time do you post?
One can hope that there will be some movement in the Bloodborne camp sometime in the future

I checked out a couple of your posts on reddit where you also mention that we had an active community of around 70k people across the entirety of Lemmy. I was under the impression that we're a lot more. In light of that, it makes sense they didn't pop off more. Shittydarksouls seems general enough to gather enough people

I've basically lost all interest in keeping my communities alive at this point. I tried posting daily myself, I encouraged others to join in, I had bots pulling content from reddit to have any activity there, people grew discontent but didn't post themselves. Basically back to square one and don't feel like starting out again. Guess I'm good without them

My SO and I are both not diagnosed nor are we claiming that there should be a diagnosis, but my SO especially benefits a lot from my body doubling. Be it to wash their hair, knock out some chores, it helps when I'm around either talking to them or joining

What made them think you were an Uber driver yourself?

Actually can't think of anything IRL, but I've recently picked up a couple new heroes in Overwatch and have been having a lot of fun with them.
But it's a very good question that made me think of (my) life quite a bit. Thanks for that!

You got this 💪🏻
Mine is Abandoned Deck because I like playing with numbered cards and feel like face cards get hosed too often
I had a Pair run and pivoted to include Two-Pair synergy too. Throughout the run, I upgraded Pair a lot (Lvl 10 or so) and Two-Pair barely. If I play a Two-Pair, does the multiplier only trigger as if I played a Two-Pair or does it also trigger the Pair multiplier? Trying to figure out it if makes sense to invest in the pants joker or if I run the risk of losing because I don't rack up enough points. Thanks! Edit: Ended up not going for Two-Pairs, unless I had to because of boss blinds, and got to 11/8. Pretty good :)
I've had a little of a debate with a commenter recently where they've argued that "donating" (selling, in their words, because you can get money for it) your blood plasma is a scam because it's for-profit and you're being exploited. Now, I only have my German lense to look at this, but I've been under the impression that donating blood, plasma, thrombocytes, bone marrow, whatever, is a good thing because you can help an individual in need. I get that, in the case of blood plasma, the companies paying people for their donations must make some kind of profit off that, else they wouldn't be able to afford paying around 25€ per donation. But I'm not sure if I'd call that a scam. People are all-around, usually, too selfish and self-centered to do things out of the goodness of their hearts, so offering some form of compensation seems like a good idea to me. In the past, I've had my local hospital call me asking for a blood donation, for example, because of an upcoming surgery of a hospitalised kid that shares my blood group. I got money for that too. What are your guys' thoughts on the matter? Should it be on donation-basis only and cut out all incentives - monetary or otherwise? Is it fine to get some form of compensation for the donation? Very curious to see what you think
Like, I get it - there are people in both communities that might be pushy in one way or another. But, like, come on. One of them is a way of life that strives towards excluding as much pain and suffering in the world of innocent beings as possible and the other is a fucking OS. Grinds my gears. Any thoughts? Edit: What I meant specifically is the "pushiness" and "preachiness" that's attributed to both. Not sure if this is just my bias from observing comments about the recent discourse around the whole vegan cat food debacle, but yea
