Totally not completely cursed, and those example sentences absolutely didn't make me regret being literate.

Yeah, that pretty much sums up how it should be, and it would be great if more people understood that point. That you don't have to like or enjoy what someone else does, yet you can still have acceptance for them enjoying what safely makes them happier, rather than rejecting things for being different than what's perceived as "normal".

I'm honestly surprised I've not seen anyone make that connection for a joke, thanks dyslexia, it's pretty funny.

As an Asexual, can confirm, they're just making a joke with a text based stutter, not referring to Asexual or Agender, such as in "LGBTQIA+" that generally refers to multiple things under the "A".

In the latter case, it's left open ended for inclusivity, rather than arbitrarily excluding other things by specifying.

As for how the original comment could possibly be more inclusive, it's harder to say exactly, but I can think of something like "Ladies, Gentlemen, and everyone else", but I'm not exactly great at fancy words... or words in general... but I try my best.

The term "boy's club" here is really not generalizing "men" or "boys" as a whole, but rather it's by its usage criticizing the specific group mentality it describes, that of a group of "boys" who treat women with less respect than each other, or otherwise exclude said women, as in at least some cultures is common from some generally younger "boys" who haven't really matured past a mentality usually developed from a young age, because they lack the experience to know it's wrong.

Or just your own tail, like a fluffy pillow, but anywhere.

Yeah, I agree with that similarity to Warframe's level of developer interaction.

Sure, in the past they've been slower to respond to feedback about problems, and often times old things have fallen out of relevance because something else just outright does the same thing, and more, but better.

But as it is now, DE really seems to be prioritizing listening to feedback, almost exponentially so, and as an example, bringing things up to par with what they should be at the current level of the game, a concept that much more rarely got the implementation it deserved in years before.

Hi, here's your pretty much useless furry check.

Double meaning entirely intentional, because funny.

I've been seeing it in several places, as comments and replies, unrelated to whatever it's about, and always from users from discuss.online. Perhaps someone trying to use bots that the instance hasn't removed yet.

Besides the unlimited use ferrystone, which doesn't work in bitterblack isle, that was added to the first game later, the fast traveling works pretty much the exact same.

If anything, there's more fast travel options in Dragon's Dogma 2 thanks to the ox carts which let you skip time until you arrive, or get ambushed, which lets you continue once you clear the ambush. And that's just from well under a few hours of my time in game.

Also in the significantly less than 24 hours I've had, rift crystals, the currency they're selling for "convenience", are quite easy to get, and you absolutely never need to spend them on pawns, just drop the max pawn level to your own level or under and they're free to use.

I've already gotten enough to do a full appearance change, another thing they're selling for "convenience", without specifically trying to get them, just having fun playing the game, exploring, and completing quests.

And the tents? They aren't consumable unless maybe they get broken from ambushes, which I have yet to have occur after over 5 uses of the cheapest tent, likely because I clear the area around me first. All that's affected is weight, which becomes less of a problem the more you play regardless.

Wakestones? If you're dying, you're not prepared or ready enough, come back later, it's really that simple. I've already gotten a wakestone shard randomly, which you combine a few to get a full wakestone, which seems way faster than the first game given the much larger scale of this one. Not to mention that the ones you can buy as DLC are limited in that you can only buy 5 total, ever, but likely you can get endless amounts later in the game.

The rift incense? The one offered is the actual worst one available, it's random, as opposed to the pre-set ones you can get in game.

Even the rift crystals you can only buy a limited amount for "convenience" when you can get unlimited just for playing the game.

I'm sorry if I went off topic and on an extended reply, just a bit frustrated that I've been seeing tons of people spreading outright wrong and incorrect information about basic parts of the game. I've played both games now and gladly will clear up a ton of stuff like that. It's one thing to criticize the microtransactions themselves accurately for what they are, and another thing entirely to lie out of ignorance just to have more to complain about.

Memes, the DNA of the soul.

Ah yes, gotta love seeing Captain Vor invading other realities just to monologue another time before the cutting in half cycle continues as it always has and always will.

Suppose I'll perish

Would it be a bolder statement from a toaster? I mean- boop beep.

"Furry" you say? Wait, do I need to have a drum set to make that joke better? Because it doesn't quite land right, unlike that cat.

It's interesting seeing "nonsexual" as opposed to "Asexual" or something like "Asexual Spectrum", followed by "allosexual".

No offense intended or anything, just making mention for visibility.

Oh no, furries, the most apology worthy state of existence- Wait a minute...

It's quite nice seeing other Ace people around, AroAce myself.

Also, that does make sense, I've just not really seen anyone use that term for it before now that I can recall.

Wait, what's getting jesus'd...?

Oh, I did not think of the implications of making that a verb.

Rings at a very basic level tend to be moons that could be, or could have been, if they were higher in orbit such that gravity wouldn't tear the moon apart. They can also be from moons or even planets colliding, the debris in the aftermath forming the rings, which if not too low in orbit, could reform into a moon as well, which seems likely to be how our own moon formed.

There's also black-grey-white-purple, or in direct terms, the Asexual flag, the one you mentioned being for Aromantic. There's also a specific flag for both combined, or "Aroace", because you can be one, the other, or both at the same time.

It tends to get shortened to "Trans", though I could see specifying shortly with something like "Transsex" or "Transgen" for more precise abbreviation.
