Korea is called Korea because of Goryeo, which was one of the historical unifying states that brought together the Later Three Kingdoms...

It's a little hard to explain because the kingdoms would often "unify" (aka conquer) the other kingdoms, eventually fall, and the later kingdoms would often adopt those previous names. Would be here all day trying to explain it.

But yeah, Goguryeo, one of the Kingdoms, romanized their name to "Koryo" which was later also used by Goryeo. Goryeo was named as an adaptation of Goguryeo so... yeah. Confusing.

Well technically, it's not a voice modulating the synth but rather the shape of your mouth. It's not your voice if you aren't producing your own sound, I'd argue.

I've only had issues connecting in Helldivers once so far, aside from the quick matching. On the other hand, some of the friends I've played with have been having constant problems. Not sure what's up with that.

I was hoping that said bongcloud

Those sweepstakes rewards are pretty sweet though... Capcom hanafuda cards??? Though US is not eligible for it.

Most likely it's someone who has a VPN that doesn't support P2P upload or has their config messed up.

I use US-QWERTY but with the pipe/backslash key as backspace, and the key where backspace usually is gets turned into two keys, pipe/backslash and grave (yes, there is a keycode for grave (`) by itself).

Agreed, alpha humor will change the world

Ah, my favorite month, Octato

I don't NEED fast travel, but I would prefer if games still had an in-universe method of traversing from, say, the Easternmost region and the Westernmost region (i.e. a train, boat, horse carriage, etc.). I just don't like spending significant amounts of time running back and forth through areas I've already discovered all the content in.

I appreciate fast travel in games like Kingdom Come Deliverance, where the fast travel still accounts for the time and resources spent.

I am certainly interested in the 2nd game. Should I play the 1st game before then? I heard mostly good things about DD1.

Maybe more useful for sous vide. Not a big fan of putting food in hot bags of plastic, though.

I didn't know it was released on Mac at all! I hope you enjoy it if you pick it up. The game gets pretty hard, but if you are willing to learn the boss patterns it's a ton of fun.

Keeping this one for later. Thank you!

Lies of P is a solid game! It really clicked for me after the 4th main boss. Heavy, slow weapons seems to be more useful in a second playthrough, and I'm finding some NG+ fights easier than the original NG fights.

Aside from that, I've been playing M&B Bannerlord with lots of mods. Not an amazing game, per se, but still very nostalgic for me.

Ah, that makes more sense. My bad on my part as well, the fediverse is certainly not just for US/Europe.

Dear gen alpha... Skibidi toilet is s-tier shitposting, I appreciate your eye for fine art.

Nah but the President and other upper levels wouldn't be able to afford their summer homes if you cut into their salaries!
