Gale is the fucking worst. He talks like a redditor. Probably only Astarion is worse.
Karlach I guess I can see people liking; to me its less the character, and more the writing. She isn't sold to me; she comes off not like a person, but like a new player's first barbarian trying to fight for ~power and love and violence!. I can't take her seriously, she just feel like a tumblr post made live or something.
Ugh, yeah, that tracks.
#1 complaint (and, really only, aside from bugs) about BG3 is just how unlikable every single companion is. And yeah, they do got big Morrigan energy, for worse.
I find it very helpful, for managing stress, anxiety, fear.
But like, just because I find it helpful, doesn't mean it's going to work for you. Different people find different coping mechanisms helpful, and I think part of learning to manage neurodivergance and mental illness is building up a suite of things that work for you be they coping mechanisms, medicine or treatments, or whatever.
also we should swap Top/Bottom back to Truth/Beauty
Top/Bottom can be the new terms for, idk, strong and weak atomic forces.
I only really take it once a week, though, I do also use nutritional yeast a lot. My last bloodwork showed by B12 as fine, but ymmv.
Thank you for the answer! That makes it a lot more clear what's going on; the impression I got from the marketing material was kind of all over the place and made it seem a "do everything" mess.
Probably not the game for me? Sounds like I might like 2/5s of the core gameplay, but also probably will mildly to strongly dislike another 2/5s. I like puzzles and platforming, but I find hack and slash combat extremely boring. I do like that there's no 'timed social links' like in Personal; one of like 3 major reasons why I don't like those games.
I agree a lot. To me, I'd describe it as a 'head in the clouds' kind of feeling. Like there's some long tether between 'feelings' in the visceral sense, and the conceptualizing and wandering thoughts of my 'conscious mind'. And any big emotional change feels like its distant and takes time to 'work its way up', not to mention just the various impressions that I just don't feel emotions on connect to reality the same way others do. One of the little things that is just kind of petty but always makes me feel alien, is I just don't like most media. I don't like movies or TV, I don't like the vast majority of music.
I also definitely have that 'veiled third eye' feeling, or the sense of catching snippets of sounds or sights that are hidden or Important. But its worth noting, I have schizophrenia, so I know what that part of it is all about. But a big part of those kinds of things for me isn't just the hallucination of the sense, but the delusion that it is real and important, the same way some thoughts feel profound and correct, and I gotta recognize and ground or check in with others.
I don't especially get what kind of game it is from its trailer. I glossed over it because of this when I saw it on Steam.
It looks kinda open world hack and slash-y? Which are two genres I mostly hate. But also, it has some mention of puzzles, which I do like. But its hard for me to tell "what is the thing you spend most of your time doing" while looking at its press material.
Star control 2 fucks. Highly recommend. Basically a proto Mass Efect, but still better thannit in a few ways (if obviously much less 'cinematic' and character driven).
You can also make Seitan yourself at home, by 'washing flour', or just by buying 'vital wheat Gluten' flour.
1 part flour (or besan (chickpea flour) for extra protein) to 3 parts gluten. Some veggie stock, garlic, and onion powder, and salt.
Knead, rip into nuggets, steam 10 minutes, pan fry 2 minutes per side with a bit of sauce.
'vital wheat gluten' is like, 77% protein by weight. That puts it just under 'whey protein'.
The 'washed flout' technique I think gives better flavor/texture, but is more work.
I can't directly relate. I strongly prefer 'person with schizophrenia' to 'schizophrenic' (or similar, worse terms). I feel that, first and foremost, I am a person, as are all people, neurodivergent or not.
But also, I support you in being referred to as you want. I don't need to relate to your experience to just, refer to you as an autist (when I would need to refer to it at all), after you tell me you prefer that.
