Kreitler - The Gremlin Cave

Goncharov Lore Thus Far, based on the top tumblr post results

Main cast are Goncharov himself, his wife Katya (née Michailov), and Andrey 

One side character is named Mario Ambrosini. He is described as a “sad boi” and is involved in gambling. 

Set in Naples and involving a drug ring/mafia. The plot seems to involve Russian organized crime attempting to get a foothold in Italy. 

There is a Boat Scene. Katya survives via resourcefulness. 

Andrey and Goncharov have a substantial amount of homoeroticism. Andrey also has an internet in Katya. This forms a true love triangle. 

At some point, Katya threatens to shoot Goncharov. This is framed as a Girlboss Moment. 

There is also a Beer Bottle Scene. 

Katya fakes her death.

some thoughts about Sinclair's past between the Christmas an lcb events... i saw no one who'd talk about that it's insane!!! so i'll be the one who'll do it (in comfortable for me art form)

Have you ever played a video game that just made you so fucking angry?

Yeah all of them, every single one, even minecraft. Fuck minecraft.

I gotta piss hard. See you in a sec

I wake up at 5am to go to work and as I walk out the door I hear something.

“Tarnished, a word.  Before thou sees fit to return from thy daily toils, I would ask of thee, a boon.  Bring to me a bounty of crispy cheese snacks, and I shall reward thee handsomely.  Seek Joe the Trader in his abode, he may provide what I seek, for a price…”

The burden of ideals and becoming you`r best possible self - Inspecting the themes of Horizon: Forbidden West

Horizon: Forbidden West continues and expands upon the world and story set in the first Horizon-game. The central thematic thread that runs trough the main story in Forbidden West, is connected to the protagonist Aloy and another major character, Beta. Both Aloy and Beta are clones of Elisabeth Sobeck, a genius scientist that spearheaded the Zero Dawn project, which brought life back to Earth after the Faro Swarm devoured the biosphere. As both characters are clones of Elisabeth, they are the inheritors of her legacy and dreams. It is this relationship to their their progenitor, that Forbidden West explores. How does it feel to be a clone of this respected scientist, that some people viewed as a saint? The game inspects Elisabeth as an ideal/hero, that some of the central characters, Aloy, Beta and Tilda, wish to either imitate or possess. Interestingly while Elisabeth indeed was a remarkable person, Forbidden West also dives deeper into her character and shows, that she too was a flawed individual like everyone else. Forbidden West also explores the possible pitfalls of following or trying to be an ideal or a hero, in a rigid fashion. How does that affect the person aspiring it, or how it affects the person`s views on others? What is the picture we paint of the person we put onto a pedestal? These are the questions that I will attempt to answer in this post.  

It began with a dream

A dream that Aloy recounts in the beginning of the game illustrates well, how she views Elisabeth and the relationship with her. In the dream Aloy is walking under a brilliant night sky, in a field of flowers. At the center of the field there is a tree where Aloy finds Elisabeth, inspecting her amulet. At the place where Elisabeth is sitting, a few rays of light are shining down upon her. Elisabeth wraps her amulet around Aloy and they hug warmly. Aloy explains how Elisabeth is the closest person to a mother that she never had, and that she feels whole with her. However the dream always ends the same way, the Blight corrupting everything.  

The dream communicates both verbally and visually, how Aloy views Elisabeth. The rays of light that are shinning down on Elisabeth make her look like a holy, saint-like figure. Elisabeth is a ray of hope within the darkness, but the light also illustrates how highly Aloy thinks of her. As Elisabeth wraps the globe pendant on Aloy, its symbolizes Aloy carrying Elisabeth`s legacy and dreams, the whole world on her shoulders.  Aloy seeing/portraying Elisabeth in such a high manner is not surprising, since Elisabeth Sobeck was not only a genius scientist, but a wonderful human being. Not only did she posses vast intelligence, but the emotional side of things was also important to her. That is why GAIA, the AI which governs Earth´s terraforming system, also had to care. She was supposed to be someone with emotions and an conscience. Thus this means Elisabeth is very human, and not only a calculating machine. 

However what is interesting that while the first game establishes Elisabeth as this prodigy who cared about all life, the sequel also brings up her flaws. This becomes evident during the main quest “Death`s Door”, where we see a discussion between Travis Tate and Elisabeth. Travis tries to engage Elisabeth in small, silly celebration of sorts, but she only continues to work. This prompts Travis to ask that if Elisabeth, a paragon and a near saint, had any friends or people close to her at all. 

Aloy who observes this recorded conversation tries to counter Travis´s statement by saying, that she cared about everyone. However Sylen´s interjects and says, that the path of the exceptional is one with solitude. Elisabeth`s final moments echo this statement and while she did a heroic deed, and managed to reach her home, she died alone. GAIA laments this fate.

Apparently spez has said that the blackout is 'noise' and 'will pass'. Two days was never enough. I'm not using Reddit until pigboy backs off. This blackout needs to be indefinite.

And when you leave for good, make sure to delete your valuable content. Shitheel isnt making a cent of my posts.

The content of spez's internal memo:

Hi Snoos,

Starting last night, about a thousand subreddits have gone private. We do anticipate many of them will come back by Wednesday, as many have said as much. While we knew this was coming, it is a challenge nevertheless and we have our work cut out for us. A number of Snoos have been working around the clock, adapting to infrastructure strains, engaging with communities, and responding to the myriad of issues related to this blackout. Thank you, team.

We have not seen any significant revenue impact so far and we will continue to monitor.

There’s a lot of noise with this one. Among the noisiest we’ve seen. Please know that our teams are on it, and like all blowups on Reddit, this one will pass as well. The most important things we can do right now are stay focused, adapt to challenges, and keep moving forward. We absolutely must ship what we said we would. The only long term solution is improving our product, and in the short term we have a few upcoming critical mod tool launches we need to nail.

While the two biggest third-party apps, Apollo and RIF, along with a couple others, have said they plan to shut down at the end of the month, we are still in conversation with some of the others. And as I mentioned in my post last week, we will exempt accessibility-focused apps and so far have agreements with RedReader and Dystopia.

I am sorry to say this, but please be mindful of wearing Reddit gear in public. Some folks are really upset, and we don’t want you to be the object of their frustrations.

Again, we’ll get through it. Thank you to all of you for helping us do so.
