They more likely to be plunged into an accidental nuclear war. We're more likely to be plunged into ww2 part 2: electric boogaloo.

I seem to recall the first cut from lucas of ep4 was so rough, it would had been a complete disaster if it was released as is. Like the opening scene was going to be Luke coming out of his tatooine hut and not the iconic rebel corvette out running an imperial destroyer. Lucas's wife and others worked tirelessly to reedit and move scenes around to fix the pacing and other issues that lucas had in his cut.

Mr. Ogles claimed expressed solidarity with individuals convicted of terrorism-related offenses, before he was a U.S. citizen.

Mr. Ogles, whats your opinion on the terrorists that stormed the capitol and was pardoned by your president?

Let me guess... you moved to another European country where you had already had free entry into.

I used Win ME throughout the entire XP lifespan. The BSODs only made me resilient that whatever bullshit microsoft could come up with.

I mean, sure. Not every single calorie you consumed gets absorbed and expelled. Fiber has tons of calories, but our bodies cant digest it so its simply expelled. Its very naunce argument. Thats why i selectively said "enegry dense food" sugars and fats are easily broken down and absorbed. I was not intending you to interpret it as meaning if you eat a gram of uranium, that your body would suddenly gain 18 million calories.

Its both. Calorie in. Calorie out. Any calories not used will be stored for later. Keep consuming more than used, than more and more gets stored. The problem with modern diets is food is very enegry dense and a lot of people dont live active lives. Our bodies have not adapted to such lifestyles. Its adapted to survive until the next hunt not the next doordash delivery.

Personally think GSRM should be more popular. Its short and includes everyone, and isnt making a a hidden declaration that some minorities are more special by having their own letter (thus the reason for appending more to the alphabet soup)

Why would you have an anti virus if you never install apps?

For propulsion, a small steam engine can work. And it doesnt need much power, so even an earlier crude engine would suffice. And if you have a boiler for the steam engine, you can use it's heat to heat air for a balloon. Now in reality a steam airship would require a very large boiler and balloon, and certainly would not be able to carry much fuel to go far. But it's atleast within plausiblity to allow bending to allow for gameplay. Just like you can ride elk... sure you could but in reality they'd make for a terrible mount. But its a cool thing for gameplay.

I dont think "uncompromising" means that they want to force brutal realism onto players.

Vintage Story offers multiple playstyles and a huge amount of customization options when you create a new game world. You have the power to choose a creative experience, a peaceful world, balanced survival, hardcore wilderness survival or quite literally anything inbetween.

Sounds like the devs want to give players the ability to play the game however they want to play. So i think its perfectly fine to give my criticism. Im not saying what they have created is bad, i am just sharing what i think could make the game better for me and others. Honestly, vintage story provides a lot of what I wanted minecraft to become. But it just needs something to reduce the tediousness of gathering resources. Perhaps even something as simple as an airship that travels faster than you on the ground so distances aren't big of an issue.
