That's Bizarro Borg.

ZylonBane

Marge Language Models are the worst.

ZylonBane

Is "everyone" in the room with us now?

ZylonBane

Linda: Wherever -> Backtrack to asylum entrance -> Lake -> Transit System

Bacon: Wherever -> HQ -> Transit System

That backtracking can be a huge pain in the ass. Indisputably more "direct" to bamf directly to the camp.

ZylonBane

It's always funny when people are so marinated in their own cryptic jargon that it literally can't occur to them that the jargon itself is what someone is questioning.

ZylonBane

we hung out and Hu

WTF?

ZylonBane

No, young ones aren't that familiar with Mr. Bean.

ZylonBane

Do YOU know the muffin man?

ZylonBane

Spotted the tutorial-skipper.

ZylonBane

You can also make the trip indirectly

Indirectly? That's the most direct method available, since you can do it from basically anywhere. I never use Linda for transport since you have to walk all the way back to the asylum entrance.

ZylonBane

Thanks y'all for the reminder that most r/gaming posters are fucking idiots.

ZylonBane

And yet nobody says that we're ignoring the mouse in the room.

ZylonBane

That's like saying a nuke is just a bomb.

ZylonBane

You would have to be literally blind to not notice all the low-res pixelated textures in the SS1 remake.

ZylonBane

System Shock 1 gets called out in this sub as not actually an imsim on a regular basis. It's at most a proto-imsim, lacking the interacting systems of a true imsim.

ZylonBane

It's kind of sad that you're perfectly okay with clickbait headlines as long as there isn't an explicit rule against them.

ZylonBane

The remake is entirely too obsessed with being "retro". Like, Nightdive made a pixelated retro version of System Shock with seemingly zero awareness that a pixelated retro version already existed.

And they never fixed their godawful version of the final boss fight.

ZylonBane

People who inexplicably use emojis to describe what someone said with their voice.

ZylonBane

"If you're watching this, this is not a dream. We are transmitting from the year one nine nine nine."

ZylonBane

Strike that, reverse it.

ZylonBane

"Throw me the book!"

"Throw me the hostage!"

ZylonBane

What word is fnord? The person you're responding to didn't even mention a word.

ZylonBane

First, Human Revolution isn't retro. Second, System Shock isn't an imsim.

ZylonBane

Because nothing else can do all the things it does.

ZylonBane

Whoosh.
