      I have never been lied to by data in a .txt file which has been hand-aligned

      everything is fucking videos now. You get stuch at a very particular place? Prepare to sift through literally hours of video instead of, for example, just searching for the name of the place you’re in ingame

        Nah, there’s a lot of text guides too. But the problem is that they’re often just copied from one source that somehow manages to get basic shit wrong every damn time. And videos definitely have their place, so many times I’ve first searched for a text guide and only got more confused. As long as the videos are short and to the point I always appreciate them. Found some great channels that way that have helped me through several games.

        did you know that the more inappropriate the place you put the word “fucking” in is, the more seriously people will take your comments? :D

          The written language is developed by the spoken language. I.e. colloquialisms are king.

          I raged against people using literally when they mean figuratively for years. I lost.

      I was fascinated at one point by ASCII art. I had seen someone manually drawing some ASCII emoji on a cup as a kid. Weird…
