Do you still have to invite them in?
  • Also depends on the rules of the universe. In the Dresden files, for example, places have a defensive aura based on stuff like.. homeyness. A house that has been in the family for generations and people have lived there constantly will have a stronger repulsive aura for the fae. Whereas an apartment where a bachelor lives will have a weaker one.

    Also stuff can still enter, it's just that they get considerably weaker or completely powerless if they enter without an invitation.

  • smart engineering
  • No, the joke wouldn't have been as funny if it said "scammer" instead of "smart engineer". Plus, I think it's more a jab at engineers rather than anything. Because most would rather argue/explain the whole 10 vs 11 thing than just go "ok, sure, I can do that " and get paid.

  • Even Bernie didn't vote third party when it counted.
  • I'm sure lemmy.ml will be able to do what nobody has been able to do in the 200+ year history of the US and make third parties relevant! Great job! /s

    The meme is that you're supposed to try to improve the system in between elections, not just throw away your vote every 4 years and call it a day

  • What's your favorite fantasy monster race?
  • Okay, you consider it a cheat answer, that's fair. But, just for the record, pokemon is a fantasy series. And the pokemon are a race of monsters.

    But for a more typical answer, I'd go with either dragons cause they're usually powerful and intelligent and can fly or warcraft's taurens cause they're like a hippie version of a minotaur. Strong and intelligent but with an affinity for nature. A tauren druid being a very fun combo with tons of versatility.

  • How does the song "Strawberry Fields Forever" by The Beatles make you feel?
  • Makes me feel like when I have a small bit of a song stuck in my head and I'm desperately trying to think of what follows so that I can properly look it up but I can't. Feels like there should be more of a follow-up in the chorus after "strawberry fields forever". As it is, it feels like a jingle for a company named strawberry fields.

  • Winds of Winter
  • Sure. But who wants to read a book that was purely written for the money and not even by the original author? At that point just ask for martin's notes and fill in the blanks yourself

  • My mental health has improved after deleting games that have microtransactions in them
  • Nah, if you actually played free to play games then you'd know that wow's mtx store is a baby compared to most games such as overwatch, lol, dota, cs, valorant, PoE, Warframe, etc. and you wouldn't be arguing with me over calling out a person for exaggerating over 6 released armor sets in the span of 4 years.

  • My mental health has improved after deleting games that have microtransactions in them
  • There's a list of 2000 pieces. And only 5 sets that you can buy. Also every month you get free trader's tender for simply logging in. You use that to buy those pieces. If you do a few world quests you get even more. I literally cap out on the monthly 1k tender by playing a few hours. Why are you people being so negative for no reason.

    There's plenty of things to hate. There's plenty of things even blizzard are guilty of. Look at overwatch for thousdands of reasons. But wow is one of the games that's most respectful of your time. Nowadays and as far as MMOs go, that is. I literally have a 4 piece set without ever stepping foot in a normal raid. Only did LFR once, got 1 piece. The other 3 were given for free. You get so much shit in this game by simply logging in and playing a couple of hours it's insane.

    If you want the entire transmog collection the game has to offer, that's been released over the course od 20 years, yes, you have to grind. But let's not pretend you need to play a lot to have some nice sets. That hasn't been true in a long time.

  • I checked the site before posting just to make sure because I didn't wanna post BS, but it seems I missed a couple of things. I apologize, they also released 6 cosmetic sets in the last 4 years, an extra helm and a pair of wings. Some of which they simply gave for free to subscribers before putting on the store.

    That's still less than you're making it sound. Definitely not one every month. Again, not defending them or disagreeing with you, I just don't like it when people make things sound worse than they are to get people to agree with them.

    Also, that transmig restriction bit is also a lie. There's quite a few cosmetics that are armor class agnostic. I know because I have them and I've never spent a dime in the store. Here is a list of most of them.
