It encapsulates some whimsy and magical elements which have always been underdeveloped in other similar games. Filled with mystery, easter eggs and constant progress and discovery. The relationship elements are a lot more mature than Harvest Moon as well. Deals with some of the grit and consequences of living in reality. All packaged together superbly.

I've been playing and replaying it since its original PC-only release in 2016. I remember being so excited about a new game finally improving on thr Harvest Moon formula. I think it's safe to say that today it has completely surpassed other games in the genre. The freedom and variety of tasks in the game has since enticed me towards further replays as well. It's so inspiring how passionate Barone has been towards his creation in the long run too.

He's dead to me

Might just be an old comic. The above was true a few years ago, but not so much anymore.

Unfortunately the "shame" surrounding these things stem from the concept of sin and living as a "sinner" in a "fallen world". I've been shamed countless times because of things the church did not agree with. I don't know if he ever preached any transphobic ideas in his time, but biblical ideologies are rife with gender roles and toxic ideas about women and masculinity. Even if he didn't preach any of that toxic garbage, he must have been struggling a lot with his own identity, even though he said it's only for fun and stress relief (paraphrasing). Small towns don't act gracefully towards people experimenting with their sexualities like this. Can only imagine the rejection he must have experienced having all of this play off on the grand stage of his life in that little town, since literally everyone there knew him.

You didn't state if you use an adblock extension, which is what this is all about.

The previous time he complied with orders from cops, he wrongfully lost 16 years of his life behind bars, ruining all future prospects. I 1000% understand why he would be asking a lot of questions with his first interaction with cops after years of abuse in a completrly for-profit system that rewards abusers.

Talk about a small minded thought, holy shit... How about you go and wrongfully spend 16 years in prison. You can't draw similarities between another entirely different situation, they are not even closely the same. You're being a big idiot with this "hot take"...

They could have fixed it with 1 word: "YouTube intensifies fight against ad-blockers BY showing pop-ups and users are frustrated."

Yeah okay, but if you're a woman voting republican, you're clearly choosing the more evil of two choices? I fully agree with the flawed two party system, but there's an obvious better choice here. We're talking about a singular issue: female reproductive rights.

According to one alternative posted in the past by a member of the Furry community?

But yeah, you're wrong. Linux is predominantly portrayed by a penguin mascot, Tux. Some distros are named after penguin species too (Gentoo for example)

I highly doubt they weren't aware of the majority of these issues. They didn't exist because of ignorance towards tank-building. These problem-points probably existed because of corners cut during manufacturing and financial obstacles, which cannot be simply cleared up once the factory is made aware thereof.

It was probably also very good for the Ukranian forces' morale to hear about this and about how the Russian helpline even ended up helping the enemy with their captured tank.

But yeah, they most likely didn't just find out how crappy their tanks are manufactured thanks to this one incident.
