The lore is intentionally left vague isn't it? I could've sworn that I watched a video on it and it was stated that the director based the game off of western fantasy novels that he only kind of understood due to the language and cultural barrier and the feeling of mystery that came from them. I can
percent see Bob doing his best to fill all the gaps with esoteric philosophical bullshit about how the great dragons are actually white people keeping the fire (read spicy because there are no boring/milquetoast minorities ever when you fetishize them) down and they ARE coded minorities, don't @ me, because their brand is called the DARKsign and how Seath shows how to be a good ally by tossing away the whiteness that protects him and betrays the other dragons and there should have been more Nito gassing the white people and it would all be one sentence like this.
He had some thing somewhere about how he thinks it's indistinguishable from Skyrim. No idea how since the only thing they have in common is "fantasy RPG", they don't even use the same era or part of Europe as the basis for their designs so you can't pin it on generic fantasy aesthetics.
The lore is pretty vague, but there's enough in there between hidden NPC dialog and the flavor text of many items and such to where an observant player is more than able to put the pieces together into a coherent story. Basically the kind of game where a five minute quick scroll through of the Wikipedia page (the shit we all know Bob does to prove his SUPERIOR INTELLECT) will probably give you the most basic bitch level of understanding, or completely wrong ideas.
Reading this, I'm starting to understand why his sleep schedule is so fucked up. He sacrifices sleep to stay ahead of the curve. But he ain't young anymore, so it's gonna bite his fat ass in the long run.Gonna repost this one because It's one of Robert's most interesting fallacies.
It is one thing to update you way of thinking given new information, perspectives, etc.
it is another to lack any sort of principles, and you agree with new ideas solely on the merits of who is saying it, and to which social caste they belong.
If right people said that babies can decide gender by just the way they blink, Robert would be just behind them sayin science will prove them right and these babies should get their hormones treatment right away, and if you don't agree... well, guess who is a nazi?
And its easy for Robert to act like that because he has no skin in this game, he can agree with whatever people say as long as he get to be on top of this stupid social game, no matter how ludicrous shit gets, because he doesn't have to live any of it.
There is no easier thing to be the most progressive, open minded person on all issues, be trans, immigration, you name it, when one doesn't have to live with the consequences of such policies. When all you do is sit on your apartment tweeting, and occasionally going to the theater or your Brother's, then it is pretty easy to just say the things you belive (sorry, "think") that are righteous, withou any real self criticism exercise.
And that's because the only principle I see Robert living by is "I'm better and smarter than most".
Don't forget, he tweets (and checks Twitter) all the time. Maybe it's a combination of both?
> If the ONLY helpful thing "vaccine passwords" did was allow people who matter to make life miserable - if not literally unlivable - for Trumpers, I'd be ready to at least listen (SMILEY FACE EMOJI SO YOU KNOW I'M SO FUCKING HAPPY)Bobby still doesn't know why "vaccine passport" is an unpopular concept, isn't making Trumpsters miserable a laudable goal? Right?
Defensive measure he clearly made when he was reduced to raging and crying as a kid. He probably kept screaming that because the geeks and dorks he tried to befriend laughed at him in high school for worshiping that Horizons ride at EPCOT and silently praying he would become Captain N.
He, and possibly his parents, really bought in to the idea of the 'smart, nerdy' kid that nobody likes becoming an important person when they grow up and all the mean kids left wallowing in their failed, miserable lives going nowhere. Of course, Robert lacked the intellectualness of the nerds and only shared shallow interest in nerd things. Now he is a going nowhere loser, but he still apes being someone who matters.
Well-meaning but exceptional parents often try dumbass shit to comfort their bullied children. If Bob were female, he'd be told that any boy harassing Fem!Bob actually has a crush. Or the old saw about how "they're jealous" and that's allegedly why their child gets picked on.
He is too stupid to realize that it means nothing at all coming from him. Self-awareness = 0
I'd like to add this tip I discovered during my student days: Mixing blackcurrant diluting juice in with Sainsbury's Basics cider makes it borderline drinkable, and at £1 per litre (not adjusted for inflation), you could easily get completely arseholed for under a tenner.
Is this a joke I'm missing? That's not his actual food, is it? I thought those fries were stubbed out cigarettes at first.
This is one of those rare Bob tweets that's so infuriatingly dense with nothing I actually shout 'WHAT' after reading it.
