Which anime do you enjoy with a mostly adult cast of characters?
  • Frieren - Beyond journeys end

    A real fresh take on fantasy stories imo with a lot of themes I always wanted to be explored in the genre. In my last pen & paper group i played an elvish alchemist specializing in seemingly useless utility potion effects. And when i created the character i had a hard discussion with my dm on how elves actually pervice the world and other races, with them reaching ages of thousands of years and whatnot. And frieren adresses that perfectly. Also that soundtrack is just the best. I have yet to listen to "One last adventure" and not get at leas queazy, if not tearing up a bit.

    Were currently watching it a second time, just a week after finishing first time. We've never done that with any series.

    Highly recommended

  • What is the worst restaurant you’ve ever been at?
  • As a german, i'd say i would absolutely love variety, herbs, spices and taste in my food. But they just don't really offer it.

    In my city there about 15 greek restaurants selling humongous potions of meat with fries, a few döner places and a few italian places. Thats it. What would i give for anything else...

  • We're probably not the only ones running outdated software
  • Me: "Hey whats that feature we need to implement into our software?" Boss: "Ntlm passthrough" Me: ".... Hey boss about 90% of the stuff i find online is about how ntlm is insecure and should be shut off wherever you see it?" Boss: "Yeah... But everyone still uses it everywhere. Just implement it and dont think about it."

  • What is the worst experience you've had reading a book?
  • The german version of Ready Player One. Just the most disrespectful drivel about nerdom i have ever read. Absolutely embarassing and god damn was it a slog. I think that was the only book i ever hated and regretted reading. And after reading a bit of the english original i was even more disgusted as it was even worse...

  • What EldenSoulsBorne boss gave you an embarrassing amount of trouble?
  • Haven't yet beaten Malenia. Not even close. Just a lot of bullshit mechanics i can't deal with.

    Also on Crystal Sage: I found it funny how he was an absolute pushover for my first character (melee build) and a pretty hard challenge for my second (magic)

  • One of my favourite games in my childhood
  • You might want to check out Shadow Tactics, Desperados 3 and/or Shadow Gambit by Mimimi. Absolutely excellent adaptaions of the stealth tactic gameplay of commandos. Work great with controllers too.

  • What is your niche knowledge?
    • I am a beast at movie and tv themes
    • I'm very good at guessing boardgames from just very few clues (bu i think that part of that skill is that people who ask usually don't ask for the deep knowledge)
    • I have a triggerable wealth of knowledge about random trivia facts. During some conversations i will just randomly remember something related to the current topic and then spout it. My goto fact when someone asks me to give some random trivia is that alpaccas have a set of razor sharp teeth between their molars that they use mainly to bite off other alpaccas testicles
