This question that I asked, about what the video games being referenced in a DOOM Eternal screenshot were, got closed for being off-topic for reasons I don't fully understand.

@SepiaLazers This seems like a bit of a weird situation now. It seemed to me that the consensus in this chat was that the original question was off-topic and it was closed, but it has been reopened by other people. There were probably enough people in that conversation who haven't voted to close it again (including me), but starting a close/reopen war has its own issues.

Dragonrage

i wasnt involved in the discussion of it in this chat room, but when i saw the question with zero close votes i was surprised and closed it myself. if someone wants to collect a compilation of the discussion here and add it as an answer, that could be useful

01:01

@Dragonrage I didn't even realize that you weren't involved in the conversation. 3 other site mods were. The conversation started here

The conversation was a bit convoluted and there was some back-and-forth, but the conclusion I took away is that it's effectively several combined "identify this question" questions of the kind that we do not allow.

Dragonrage

@murgatroid99 ill try and read that when i get off work. Robotnik did bring up an interesting point to me though. that people probably wouldnt really care if it was instead referencing some movies or something

though it probably is worth having a conversation about on meta if for no other reason that we have something to reference going forward for when we get more of these types of questions

murgatroid99

@Dragonrage I didn't think of that. Looking at it from the perspective of "what things is this game referencing?" rather than "what games are these references pointing to?"

@GnomeSlice You're a great guy who comes across as very passionate about your interests and open with your emotions. That's inspiring in its own way and I enjoy talking with you about your hobbies.

I notice you've been playing a lot of TFT, did you know that Riot has a CCG in beta right now?

It seems pretty easy to register and join.

Mage Xy

It's surprisingly simple to understand, too. I've never really played any cards games like Magic or Hearthstone or etc. before, but even I'm doing pretty decent with the starter decks they give.

Yuuki

@MageXy What are your thoughts on Ivern? I'm thinking about playing him some more.

For LoL, since I don't think there's an Ivern in LoR right now.

Mage Xy

Forewarning: Don't let my opinions decide whether or not you play him lol

I hate Ivern, he's everything I hate about the jungle role combined with everything I hate about bad supports

He focuses really heavily on counterjungling, which feels terrible when you're the one being counterjungled

But he also doesn't have any combat strength in 1v1s, he relies heavily on his team to carry him. He just helps them do that

Yuuki

I was looking through a guide on him and it didn't seem to talk much about counterjungling.

Mage Xy

Maybe it's because I don't play jungle much but every Ivern I've ever played against when I'm jungle makes an effort to wander into my jungle at every opportunity and steal my buffs

Yuuki

15:51

I was interested because he doesn't really have a clear speed to worry about in any traditional sense and his build is pretty cheap since it focuses on support items.

Nzall

Inquisitor Xanesh looks like a fun boss if you're doing the football. probably Less fun if you've done your football and are anxiously waiting to see if the later teams will do it properly.

Yuuki

Also because of the way his passive works, he doesn't need a leash so his botlane can head straight to lane and get a level advantage.

Mage Xy

I say go for it if you want to try him, you seem pretty good at support junglers like Nunu. I think Ivern falls into a similar playstyle

Yuuki

16:07

twitter.com/refrainbow/status/1222472951716466688?s=19

@MageXy Might be something I'll avoid first pick though because he seems like he'd be really weak to counterpicking.

Like anyone with a semblance of an ability to 1v1 and also heavily scale would likely suck to jungle against.

@MageXy I'm rethinking the value of dragons, particularly after watching some pro games and double-checking the buffs. Maybe it'd be better to trade the first two dragons for getting two heralds and getting top/mid ahead and then use that solo lane level advantage to get four same-element dragons in a row.

MBraedley

@Nzall Well the no onebox stuff seems like a bug to me

Depending on the laner I get ahead, maybe even forfeit the third dragon for some other map advantage.

@Nzall Well, I've already run into a problem with this in that it assumes serial/episodic writing.

Nzall

@Yuuki no, it doesn't assume that

Yuuki

Which, yeah, rules that are established in a previous episode or book break continuity if they're changed in a later episode or book.

Nzall

Please, read it fully, it's a long discussion

Yuuki

> "To maintain a quality story, the author must adhere to the in-universe mechanics established from the beginning."

What's "the beginning"? What if you're writing a stand-alone novel or a stand-alone game?

The example provided is from Star Wars, a multi-work series.

Yes, maybe something in The Last Jedi breaks continuity established in previous works, but that's something specific to multi-work series.

For the sake of discussion, just read on. The author also debunks the idea of applying modern morals as an argument against a certain narrative element

Q: Does the PS1 in Uncharted 4 always show "Sony Computer Entertainment America"?

I was wondering if the PS1 that appears in the chapter A Normal Life always shows the "Sony Computer Entertainment America" (SCEA) text, because the European and Japanese PS1s showed "Sony Computer Entertainment Europe" (SCEE) and "Sony Computer Entertainment Japan" (SCEJ) respectively.

uncharted-4

Yuuki

At the part of Goblin Slayer, I think the author makes the error of a false dichotomy.

> One would think it was just a scene meant to titillate and by definition, that would make it strictly pornographic. However, I would argue that the scene was used as a dark foreshadowing tactic. A girl whose clothes got ripped off and is forcibly subdued by a bunch of goblins in a specific pose.

Oooooor it's both things.

Nzall

The Thermian argument is: Some elements in media are criticized, usually for racism or sexism.
Fans defend these elements by citing in-universe reasons for why the story is written the way it is.

Yuuki

With a bit of heavy leaning towards titillation because you don't need to rip someone's clothes to foreshadow/imply that they're going get beaten up (or raped).

Nzall

17:46

@Yuuki read on, in the next sentence he says he agrees to an extent

murgatroid99

@Nzall So, someone claimed that said argument is a fallacy, and this article claims that the other claim was itself made fallaciously, and therefore what?

Nzall

@murgatroid99 Some users in this room like to dismiss the thermian argument in the same way Dan Olsen does. The way Dan Olsen dismisses the Thermian argument is logically debunked in the article

Yuuki

So their claim is that the Thermian argument is fallacious because, at its heart, it's an ad hominem attack (on the author). But isn't that the argument from fallacy?

murgatroid99

@Yuuki No, the claim is that one previous claim that the Thermian argument is fallacious is itself fallacious

Unionhawk

can I skip reading this and assume it just says like "according to the fallacy fallacy you are owned"

Yuuki

17:51

Seems like a lot more navel-gazing than is strictly necessary.

murgatroid99

And Yuuki already pointed out a false dichotomy in this article, so this claim that the previous claim that the Thermian argument is fallacious is fallacious is also fallacious

Unionhawk

god dammit

murgatroid99

And we're so far removed from concluding anything substantial about anything that I don't really see the point

Nzall

@Yuuki no, the claim is that the way Dan Olsen calls the Thermian Argument fallacious is an ad hominem attack. Essentially, they're saying that Dan Olsen's dismissal of the Thermian Argument essentially boils down to an appeal to consequences:“X is false because if people did not accept X as being false, then there would be negative consequences.”

And the example used is “Shield Hero’s depiction of slavery is morally wrong because if people did not accept its depiction of slavery as being morally wrong, then people will think slavery is moral”

murgatroid99

It seems to me that the actual conclusion of the article is "In short summary: Dan Olsen’s claim that the ‘Thermian Fallacy’ is a fallacy is a non sequitur for a very specific, non-representative context that ignores the fundamentals of good storytelling, and depends too much on Appeals to Consequences and emotional arguments."

Mage Xy

@Yuuki Individual dragons are not that useful. Having multiple copies of the same dragon is much better, so in theory trading the first two isn't a terrible idea. But the dragon soul is strongest of all, and I don't think delaying getting that (and even worse, giving the enemy a head start on getting it first) is really worth it. At least not as a regular strategy.

I've seen a lot of dragon souls after 4-5 dragons, and very few at 6+.

minecraft-java-edition minecraft-commands

Yuuki

Part of my worry with playing Ivern though (or really any jungler that's not tanky like Volibear or Nunu) is that dragon soul is so important right now that I absolutely cannot afford to be blown up or even taken so low that I'm forced to early Smite to survive.

Mage Xy

That just goes back to him being a support jungler and not a carry jungler. I feel like Nunu has the same problem, he just gets around it by having his Q for the insane objective securing.

Ideally your teammates would help zoning the enemy anyways, regardless of which jungler you're playing

But it's especially important for junglers like Ivern

Yuuki

18:13

I mean, carry junglers like Kindred or Yi have the same problem. They're squishy as hell and an errant CC means death. Whereas someone tankier like Volibear or Nunu, I can soak up damage for maybe a second or two longer enough for my team to get there or for me to get out. Burst is still too scary.

I should play some more Ekko so I can just ult away all my problems.

Mage Xy

Truth

Can't wait for the nerfs, Ekko is super frustrating to play against

Yuuki

I don't like that they're hitting his clear speed.

Clear speed right now is not really anything for junglers unless your clear speed is comically bad.

Mage Xy

I'd prefer if they hit his ult CD but I guess I'll take what I can get >_>

Yuuki

You only need to worry about Buffs > Scuttle > Gromp as farm as farming goes.

The other camps just don't do much and you're better off establishing vision for objectives or ganking.

Leave Raptors for your midlaner.

Krugs is the big EXP camp on that side of the map and that camp takes way too long and hurts too much for it to be worth it.

Mage Xy

It does sound like the exp change on Krugs will be indirectly nerfing Ivern btw

Yuuki

18:19

Yeah but Krugs was already sucky for Ivern since he didn't get credit for the smaller Krugs anyways.

Mostly discussion seems to be "eh, I never took that camp anyways".

I barely take that camp with any other jungler either. About the only time I do is when I'm pathing top after taking my other objectives and... I forget names... killed the toplaner when I'm halfway through river.

I should remember to go for herald more in those situations.

Or gank mid instead, I suppose.

@MageXy The big complaint seems to be that it's not seen as a nerf to Ivern as it is a nerf to new Ivern players.

Or making Krugs even more of a newbie trap than it already was.

Maybe she's not, maybe she's not in love with you in the same way, maybe she doesn't feel the things as strongly. And yeah, maybe you did fuck it all up - but at this point, you just gotta breathe and take things 10 seconds at a time until she is ready to talk to you.

Then you talk, and you figure out what's next. I promise, you'll make it through somehow. You've learned from this, if nothing else. It's not much, and it doesn't fix things, and I won't tell you that it's gonna be easy, but you can get through this, whatever it ends up being.

@GnomeSlice This might sound a bit facetious, but if I remember correctly, this isn't your first rodeo in the context of your girlfriend leaving you. I remember that years ago, in this very chatroom, you were talking similar talking points regarding your previous girlfriend. I think at this point someone with more expertise regarding relationships might tell you to examine where things go wrong with you, like mistakes you make or whether you even choose the right type of woman as your partner...

Then again, I've never been in a relationship, so I'm probably not the best person to talk about this

@GnomeSlice Maybe, but you didn't, and dwelling on that is going to make it hard for you to focus on whatever chance you get to possibly fix this, or to move on if she chooses not to let you fix it right now.

user15026

You seem to know where you made mistakes here, so now you know what not to do.

user15026

And yeah, it might feel awful and unbearable at first, but it won't always feel just like that.

user15026

It will fade and change and some days it might pop back up and hit you over the head, but trust me, you'll manage. You might need to talk to a professional human, to sort yourself out, and that's okay.

@Nzall This relationship was almost 2 years, and with a much more life partnery person. I'm also like 4 years closer to 30 than i was with that one
