X-COM Enemy Unknown
Shin Megami Tensei II
Fallout New Vegas
The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker
Mechassault
Deja Vu. Haven't seen a list like this before!! xDDD
Once again, not terrible but not great. Gonna put you in top 30% of plebians, so you're pretty high up the bell-curve tbqf.
Whatever mang. Although, I do find it hard to believe that you've seen SMT II, X-COM, and Mechassault on the same list before. Kind of a few pretty different kinds of games.
I wasn't having a go. I'm just saying the guy before you posted NV and Wind Waker was posted tonnes of times too. Your list is as good as anyone elses.
Wasn't trying to argue your opinion, just curious on what "brought it down". To that effect, are NV and WW detractors just because other people like them too? I'd think that'd be a bit counterintuitive to measuring taste.
They don't detract at all, if anything I think NV is the best one on your list. What brought it down was the overall selection.
Still a bit confused. Do you mean that as in, "everything is mediocre"?
Well, in short, yes that's how I see it anyway. I wouldn't consider any of the games you listed to be considered a patrician standard. But at the same time they are not ordinary plebian choices, that''s why I rated you as a high-tier plebian.
Alright, that makes sense. Regardless, I enjoy them immensely (gameplay and/or story) and that's all that really matters in the end fam.

I always wondered what the hell that was. Is it a slice of bread with a face?
I don't know where the bread is from, but I think the voice is from the movie Legend.
Saw it when I was a kid like once maybe. Never remembered what it was about.
You hear a voice when you look at that image? R u ok?

There is absolutely no reason to say that outside our hypothetically false reality, "everything that thinks, exists".
The only thing that the Evil Demon Scenario and Dream Argument posit is that you cannot know anything by means of the senses. Rationality is exclusive to thought; thought is the only thing that one can prove beyond a reasonable doubt to themselves to be existent. You can't even prove with certainty that you have a body, just that some localized sequence of thoughts which interprets itself to be "I" does. You cannot be tricked into thinking that you're thinking (because that means you're already thinking). Thinking inherently requires the capability of thought. If a being is thinks, then in can think; if it thinks, then it exists.

I still am not particularly convinced by I think therefor I am.
The conclusion is made using reasoning that is only as concrete as we can observe it to be, which in this context all observation is put in question. I don't think it's reasonable to assume that if reality isn't as we observe it now, that it still abides by the same bounds of logic we observe.
Question: can I doubt something if I don't exist? This is, of course, defining "I" as any thought relative to a form of mass, not necessarily "me".
If all of human observation and knowledge is suspect, then there's no way to conclude whether you can or can't.
Which I thought the whole point of "I think therefor I am" is meant that despite all doubt or delusion, one can be sure they are a thing that exists.
But I'd say it isn't sound to assume that the logic that works as we can observe in the "virtual" reality is what applies to the "actual" reality. There's no reason someone could deduce that.
Cogito Ergo Sum is the conclusion; to see if it's sound, you first have to see if the logic of the argument itself is valid. 1. I think ::= Tj
2. Everything that thinks, exists ::= (∀x)(Tx > (∃y)x=y)
C. I exist ::= (∃x)j=x Alternatively, dubito, ergo cognito, ergo sum: "I doubt, therefore I think, therefore I am." Doubt is evidence of thought; thought is evidence of an existence. What I think you're getting caught up on is the I part of the equation; the substitute, "something doubts, therefore something thinks, therefore something exists" is an equivalent without the linguistic issue. If you're still having reservations, think of it as, "I don't exist, therefore I don't think" or refer to the idea in Decartes' own words: But I have convinced myself that there is absolutely nothing in the world, no sky, no earth, no minds, no bodies. Does it now follow that I too do not exist? No: if I convinced myself of something [or thought anything at all] then I certainly existed. But there is a deceiver of supreme power and cunning who is deliberately and constantly deceiving me. In that case I too undoubtedly exist, if he is deceiving me; and let him deceive me as much as he can, he will never bring it about that I am nothing so long as I think that I am something. So, after considering everything very thoroughly, I must finally conclude that the proposition, "I am, I exist," is necessarily true whenever it is put forward by me or conceived in my mind (AT VII 25; CSM II 16–17). Thought is necessary for his existence (as it can only proven from the first-person) in his argument; if one thinks, one exists.

I've been thinking lately on Descartes' Meditations and attempting to formulate my own response to his arguments, primary of these being the Dream Argument and the Evil Demon Scenario. The Dream Argument 1. I often have perceptions very much like the ones I usually have in sensation while I am dreaming.
2. There are no definite signs to distinguish dream experience from waking experience.
therefore,
3. It is possible that I am dreaming right now and that all of my perceptions are false. Evil Demon Scenario 1. We believe that there is an all powerful Demon who has created us and who is all powerful.
2. He has it in his power to make us be deceived even about matters of mathematical knowledge which we seem to see clearly.
therefore, 3. It is possible that we are deceived even in our mathematical knowledge of the basic structure of the world. Descartes refutes the latter argument himself by attempting to prove the ontological existence of God. For obvious reasons, I don't hold much favor for it. He again refutes both arguments with his infamous Cogito Ergo Sum: Cogito Ergo Sum 1. Even if we assume that there is a deceiver, from the very fact that I am deceived it follows that I exist.
2. In general it will follow from any state of thinking (e.g., imagining, sensing, feeling, reasoning) that I exist. While I can be deceived about the objective content of any thought, I cannot be deceived about the fact that I exist and that I seem to perceive objects with certain characteristics.
3. Since I only can be certain of the existence of myself insofar as I am thinking, I have knowledge of my existence only as a thinking thing (res cogitans). Disregarding the assumption of an I, appears to be sound. This, however, holds that the only means through which we can know are through base rationality, such as "some being experiences something, therefore some being exists." I still harbor my own doubts toward the assumption that nothing, besides the knowledge that something exists which can experience things, so I started searching for alternative arguments besides Cogito. My favorite of which is Gilbert Ryle's Counterfeit Coinage Argument against Skepticism. Counterfeit Coinage Argument In a country where there is a coinage, false coins can be manufactured and passed… An ordinary citizen… might become suspicious of the genuineness of any particular coin that he received. But however general his suspicions might be, there remains one proposition which he cannot entertain… that all coins are counterfeits. For there must be an answer to the question "Counterfeits of what?" Essentially, a false experience presupposes the existence of true experiences; we can state with certainty that some experience is definitely true. Therefore, since we have knowledge that some of our experiences are true (regardless of the number of experiences, or knowledge of our knowledge), we can state that we can be certain of knowledge besides that of existence. Definitions and terminology aside, are there any other substantial arguments to be made against Universal Doubt?

Nah. It's cheap individually, but it adds up quick. McD has bether food, and that's saying something.

The car still looks as new as it did when they entered-- if it had been years, then there would be noticeable wear-and-tear on it. My best guess is that the entrance was just lazy with magic.

because that's just self-defense, but you can't use feathers, wool, or eggs--which means NO beds and NO cake, if I recall correctly.
You could make a bed, but it would take a long-ass time to gather all the silk drops from spiders to spin wool.
