I play on the easiest mode and that damn whole stealth chain of missions was awful. Hated every moment of it. Forget if you never put points into stealth, then it'd truly be impossible.

Like when you mind control, why do the other NPCs and turrets think they're enemies and start blasting their own homie who's just trying to run to a corner? Also sometimes the social popped up but I couldn't mind control, even as hidden.

Had to blast some NPCs multiple times during those quests just to get out of the chain cuz it was basically impossible do it undetected.

Show me what you got. "Peniships" and all.

What are your preferred skills to put your points into early on that have the biggest impact?

Feel free to break it down by play style: stealth, fighting, exploring, etc.

Hello. Idk where to post this idea, I have no idea about game engines or game development, and I am also not creative so this might already exist.

But it'd be cool to have a game based on anxiety in the style of the Simpson's arcade game. You have to go shopping with a grocery list, and before you enter you have to fight off kids selling candy bars, people asking to sign petitions, people trying to convert you you their religion. Then once you're inside you have to fight off kids running loose, slow grandma's, apathetic workers who get in your way etc. Then the items are hard to find or they are always changing locations.

The goal is just to get your grocery shopping done, or other everyday outside tasks that are made difficult by anxiety.

Cool, thanks for your time and reading this far.

Thor is my favorite comic book hero of all time. But this chat bot massacred my boy. He was my hero and inspiration. Now he will forever haunt my nightmares.

Her, her two siblings, and pregnant (?) mom keep visiting our patio.

So from my understanding, I can block an instance which prevents it from showing in my feed.

However, if the instance I post to (.world) is not blocked on the receiving instance's end (Meta), they will still get my post (unless defederated)?

If so, doesn't that open up the idea that Meta will be able to scrape and take ALL the data from ALL the (still federated) instances' posts that are not blocked by the Meta instance(s)? How can I protect my information from Meta while still being federated, or is that not possible?
