I agree. I’m a sucker for a cozy game, and the art was adorable; but it requires a patience I do not possess.

This week I’ve been playing a game called Peaceful Days, it’s an indie game on steam kind of resembling harvest moon, and Stardew Valley. I gave it a second shot because the dev said he’s reworked it, but it’s still plenty convoluted. The puzzles are obscure and unintuitive, so you have to live on the forums. I think I’ve officially given up on it today.

Rune factory 5 was fun, (if I remember right) and I’m currently on the store page wondering if I should spend ~$35 to get RF Guardians of Azuma. (Suggestions welcomed)

Last week I was playing winter burrows. A game that really didn’t deserve the controversy. It’s a darkly cute survival game about a mouse who moves back to his first home from the city after their parents pass. You have to collect food, materials, and stay warm through your traveling. It’s kind of like Don’t starve; but cuter and not as hard. I can’t recommend it enough, it runs like a dream. It’s a bit realistic, so don’t expect fairytale mice - you will have to bury some bodies you find in the cold.

Maybe your parents don’t know either. They’re just covering all their bases. What if you were kidnapped from another family and switched with the baby they had, at a park or something- while no one was looking? Maybe your parents went through the whole changeling movie and just decided to put it to bed and accept the circumstances. This probably brings you no peace, but to be honest; it doesn’t matter too much if you did or didn’t, they’re still your parents for better or worse. (I look almost exactly like my mom, so I know I’m hers, but it’s not a warm thought if it makes you feel better)

Yeah, most cases act as kind of an insulator which is one of the reasons to just kinda turn it off if it’s in the case and you’re traveling, but otherwise not. Luckily it is pretty durable and won’t just sweat itself to death immediately.

Well, the fact that women are existing and don’t want to interact with any of them is already discomforting to them; so I don’t suppose it takes much.

That’s rough.

I do think that’s the rule of life though, to get something you have to part with something. I bet it would be really nice to be friends in real life with the people on that matrix, but right now at least that group needs anonymity more. It doesn’t always have to be that way, life is odd and there are no concrete outcomes. Though for now, I’m sure you appreciate having somewhere to go to be able to talk about things that maybe most people wouldn’t understand or lay judgement upon. I genuinely wish you and everyone on that matrix the absolute best.

I can agree with that, but I think for privacy you lose some inclusivity. I understand you want to feel comfortable when talking about sensitive topics. On the other hand, is being a woman really such a sensitive topic that we shouldn’t be able to have a space that’s respected? It’s depressing that it’s not just intrinsically understood that these spaces are important, deserve to be public and proud, and really should be more prolific- but here we are.

I can understand a mistake, and like I read on the original thread and on here; the mods are really nice. It just really shouldn’t happen more than once imo. I also feel bad for the mods literally trying to keep a space designated for woman safe. When I first saw the group, and the rules- It was confusing but I think it’s understandable. There’s not 100 of these spaces, and the rules should be understandable for anyone who thought of participating.

Yes. I usually leave whatever game I’m playing on, running, on sleep mode. It’s always fine. I do however, make sure that the fan is not blocked off, and that it’s plugged in so I don’t wake up to a dead deck. Otherwise, there isn’t any danger that I’ve noticed- everything runs fine. If you’re NOT running anything and put it in sleep mode, any percentage above 15% should be fine. Turning it on and off actually takes more energy than sleeping it does, so I’d just keep doing what you’re doing.

I saw this play out and there were more than one of these users breaking the rules on that sub. I guess it’s tempting to want to comment on a first page thread, but boundaries exist for a reason. I don’t really see women going into incel spaces, making incels uncomfortable. Still, what it looked like was most of these men knew this wasn’t a community for them, but figured that their comments were so invaluable, how could it exist without their imput. It’s pathetic.

Yeah, I know that one actually I was thinking more of like just can’t find out, or tropical adventure.

If you can recommend a cozy/farming game other than this, I’ll gladly return it if I don’t already own it. Otherwise their drama doesn’t really have anything to do with me.

That’s an interesting take, I don’t know why you decided not to lead with that.

What do you think?

Tell me more.

This has nothing to do with AI, and is still really stupid. You just sound like a bigot.

How nice.

This is stupid and it doesn’t make any sense. People should have a right to know if it’s inclusive? If other races are portrayed? If other sexual orientations are portrayed? The only people who mind are bigots, and they can just move on. What’s especially remarkable to me is that bigots aren’t satisfied with not partaking, they desperately and pathetically need others to share that view, because in their minds, then it isn’t wrong.

There isn’t any more. Honestly, it’s just you. You can keep commenting to no end, but my kindness does expire. No one is going to want to be part of your community if you don’t see a need for kindness. Why don’t you keep going? Maybe there is someone here who is the same sort of desperate. Maybe you can find them. This is why communication and communities exist.
