@goblinodds they're such a good unstucking factor, love having a delegated managerial brain too

[Yasmeen @yassoma]

the only thing more intense than playing demoncrawl is watching someone else play demoncrawl

[Alexandre @charmide]

@dheisman @goblinodds idk if they have venture capital money or something but probably goes with their initial crypto ambitions, more money than sense 🤣

[Alexandre @charmide]

@dheisman @goblinodds i think it's just that they were extremely ambitious and had very high costs for something that's still pretty indie and niche in the end, and it didn't make as much $$ as they had bet on

[Alexandre @charmide]

@goblinodds @dheisman yeah when they released it on steam they went from free 2 play to buy 2 play & character DLCs, so no more paying for cosmetics or for entry to ranked, but now that
could have done a better job managing that stuff (they also laid off a bunch of people) but hey not too bad a model

[Alexandre @charmide]

@goblinodds @dheisman ayyy me too actually!! been watching a loved one start playing it for the first time and that was really fun, also get to flex all the pattern matching skills i accumulated from playing too much of this
can't quite figure out how to be good at Jules but i like her flavor

[Alexandre @charmide]

@yassoma 😚 thank you, my dearest and most wise-above-her-years

[Alexandre @charmide]

@Lola_lmao7 i don't know that we should mix these responsibilities, what if they send you a birth certificate instead by mistake

[Alexandre @charmide]

@hermitfriend I can't recall watching any, maybe i've had a similar takeaway and purged them from memory 😅 definitely quite the faded cultural touchstone, if any

[Yasmeen @yassoma]

if you're trying to figure out whether the beans you just made espresso with are good or not, they're likely not

pleasure hits you STRONGLY if they were

there will be no assessment needed
no tasting, no thinking

posting from the bottom of an empty cup I kept reaching for

[Alexandre @charmide]

@yassoma damn that's messed up, who wouldn't??
