All money went into self-replenishing healing hearts

Ah, I see. I love these kinds of games so I’m a bit ignorant to how others perceive them. If that’s how you feel then of course the game’s just not for you.

I want to play Myst one day. Everything I hear about this game says me I’m gonna love it.

Lunacid. It has such a weird and captivating world. Like, the first area is a cave that’s filling with a liquid moonlight. Big snails enjoy the moisture while weird abominations roam the floods.

Music is simply awesome, I listen to it outside the game from time to time.

The game is very nonlinear. If you can’t solve a puzzle in one place, you should go to another. Some puzzles require hints from elsewhere.

I had to look up a few solutions when I was done with exploration. That was a little bit unsatisfying but it didn’t ruin the game for me.

Doom 2 is a great base for mods but yeah levels that come with it are ahhh a mixed bag.

But when we’re talking about a disappointing sequel, it’s hard not to mention Doom 3. Turning a fun and silly game into a slog with jumpscares is quite a decision!

I wish!

The advantage [of Lemmy] is that you do not end up in an echo chamber.

I wouldn’t be so sure about that haha

When my friend came out as trans to me years ago, I reacted poorly at first. A few days after that, I had a dream about accepting her as she is. I guess it was just the result of me feeling guilty but it made me really think it through. Then I apologized and our relationship was great ever since.

A distinction based on age. Different pronouns for children, adults, elderly or relative to the speaker’s age.

That’s the one I thought about after posting.

A distinction based on status and respect. A bit similar to what Japanese does with honorific name suffixes but in pronoun form.

It could actually be the evolved version of the age-based pronouns. The pronouns for older people become the pronouns for respectable individuals and stuff like that.

A distinction based on proximity. One set of pronouns for a person near the speaker, one for a person near the listener and one for a person somewhere else. Japanese does something similar for things (これ kore, それ sore, あれ are) but as far as I know, not for people.

A distinction based on familiarity. One set of pronouns to refer to close friends and family, one for acquaintances, one for strangers.

I like these weirdly practical pronouns! I can imagine them in a language of a highly rational alien species.

One of the conlangs I’m occasionally working on has pronouns based on the shortened form of names: the first syllable of the person’s name plus a suffix. Plus one set of pronouns for if you don’t know (or don’t want to mention) a person’s name.

I’d argue that shortened names aren’t pronouns. Like, “Bob” isn’t a pronoun after all. But that’s a cool idea nonetheless.

What languages base their pronouns on status? I’d like to read about them.

I mean, yeah, that’s why I’m asking. Since it’s beneficial to have several pronouns based on a person’s intrinsic characteristics, a genderless society would also end up with several - but the question is, what would they base these pronouns on? Their age? Their role in society? Their personality?

That would require a lot of pronouns! But sounds interesting ngl
