Other Random question of the day

[Hootle]

No. I mean if something as little and I do think it's little as games, can manage to destroy a friendship I would have to question that friendship in the first place. I've never played any kind of game where afterwards I felt angry or wanted to stop being friends with a friend. I think that's dumb. I've never heard of anything like that in my life-maybe it's just me.
We're, at least my group-not speaking for anyone else, having fun.

Random question of the day:

Is it true that Hello by Adele is a first world problem rant?

 

[Hootle]

Uh, hm. Going to go with a no.

 

[Idea]

Don’t know the lyrics well enough to say… but I do know a very funny video by college humor about it. Maybe I’ll edit it in later when I’m not on mobile data….

In this thread I will ask a question everyday, and you will have to answer it. So the first random question of the day is:

Xbox!!

Random question of the day:

What would the video game industry look like today if Atari and Sega were still making consoles alongside Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft?

 

[AlexneushoornTheGreat]

No answers yesterday. How unfortunate.

Random question of the day:

What franchise has the biggest lore behind it (In your opinion)?

 

[Cosmo]

Mm, Star Wars, Warhammer 40k... Are the two I think of that have just a ludcrious amount of background information on them. Forgotten Realms has a lot to.

 

[Idea]

I don't know for sure, but I think Tolkien's is a candidate for sure with his 20 years of worldbuilding.

 

[Jannah]

Yea, probably Lord of the Rings/Tolkien-verse.

 

[Macintot]

Either Star Wars (but only if you count Legends) or Marvel/DC (but only if you count the retcons)

 

[Hootle]

Definitely Lord of the Rings.

 

[Ashy_OCdesigns]

Star Trek, if fan theories count as Lore.

 

[Cosmo]

Out of idle curiosity, there are over 400 Warhammer 40k novels available for purchase from their site. Those don't include side material like codexs, background rpg books, forgeworld creations, etc.

So... Yeah, 40k or marvel/dc, final answer from me.

Random question of the day:

Do you feel like COVID-19 is being abused by politicians to be even more power hungry and authoritarian than usual? (Discuss this question here: Other - Random question of the day: The Discussions)

 

[Macintot]

I'm guessing you're talking about mask mandates, vaccines, and stay-at-home orders? Absolutely not. I've seen (and keep seeing) firsthand what this virus is doing to its victims and healthcare as a whole. I've seen people - young, otherwise healthy people - at death's door with their oxygen in the 50s (percent... when normal is 94%+) and their family scared because dad was fine this when we went to bed and now he won't wake up. I've seen ambulance stretchers lined up against the wall at the ER waiting 30+ minutes for a room because all the rooms are full - largely from covid patients. I've seen patients flown over 500 miles away because that's the closest hospital with an ICU bed available. I've seen 3 covid patients die in the span of 12 hours in the ICU; they all had DNRs because once you're bad enough to be on a ventilator your odds of survival plummet. And after all that, people still think that getting a vaccine or even wearing a simple piece of fabric over their face is an "attack on their freedoms."

 

[Cosmo]

No. I feel Covid is being used by random people who want to feel special and unique by 'fighting the power' and 'not being part of the system' and don't really care about the consequence of their actions.

 

[Jannah]

No. Covid is a serious problem and, if anything, I think a lot of politicians are not taking it seriously enough. Where I live we are having massive spikes precisely because of politicians and their followers not taking it seriously enough. This disease is not a joke; please wear a mask, stay home if sick, and get vaccinated.

Random question of the day:

Have you ever been in a Discord server where the owner (Or a new owner) went on a power trip?

 

[Jannah]

Oh yes, absolutely.

 

[Onmyoji]

Yes. More than once.

 

[Idea]

A lot of them do, unfortunately.
