I truly believe the world would be a much better place if there was a clear cutoff for wealth. But of course, there would still be weasles out there circumventing such measures. Greed is such an incredibly harmful thing.

Not a single redeeming thing about billionaires. Not a single one. Their "philanthropy" would be entirely unneeded, if they simply paid their fair share back to society, without which they wouldn't have what they have in the first place.

Tonight on stream I decided my first piece of merch will be a sleeping blindfold with the eyes of my avatar on it.

Now I only need about 15.000 more followers and 1500 more subscribers on twitch to make it actually a viable thing.

I am a sucker for the Anno Series and damn if I am not going to enjoy the heck out of the Roman setting. It'll certainly be an interesting ride.

I've created this multi-level battlemap for a recent intermission campaign with some mystery and intrigue. You can get it all as pay what you want over on ko-fi and use it in your own campaigns. If you do get around to doing that, do let me know what you think!

The US and the USSR engaged in a race to have the most nukes. After the fall of the Sowjet Union international treaties were put in place to reduce the number of nukes in both east and west.

Don't quote me, but if I remember correctly, at the height of the cold war, both sides had more than 12.000 nukes each.

Humanity had enough fire power to delete the entire globe roughly 40x over then. Why? Because bigger is better.

Hello everyone!

My voice is finally returning to me and we'll celebrate that tomorrow with a full length Stellaris stream (if my voice survives it, anyway). I missed you all and I hope to see you there!

https://twitch.tv/imperorthefirst

Stream will be 19:00-23:00 CEST (Berlin) - come on by, let's hang out and celebrate Straturday!

Ah yes, the rapist doesn't want others to have power over him. Who would have guessed. Fuck him and fuck the panel that decided he could ever join.

[-] Imperor@lemmy.world 23 points 2 months ago

Clearly me. I am a tiny little youtuber and streamer who wants this place to succeed, so I lurk, I post and don't have a presence on the big platforms.

So if I ever make it big, I can help drive users here. You just wait! It'll happen any day now!

Always ask for a receipt. Let the capitalists sweat a little over the chance of you returning your purchase.

[-] Imperor@lemmy.world 77 points 3 months ago

Don't worry. Some people I know can still go skiing, so clearly it's all fake and a non-issue.

Anyone who might be surprised that Germany is so low here, Germans are always surprised people think it would be very high.

There is a simple reason, too: Auto-Lobby. Our car manufacturers are very powerful in politics and public infrastructure is heavily underfunded.

Funnily enough, highways and other roads are also crumbling, so good luck to the car makers when there is less and less road to drive those precious machines on.

Dungeon Keeper was my very first video game addiction. I stayed up late and got up early before school just to get in a few more hours with the game. It had so many mechanics all rolled into a delicious little strategy game that was so different than anything else at the time with weird little quirks and details that didn't have to be in there, but were.

Let me list all the stuff I remember being blown away by and that no game since has really properly captured anymore.

  • The spell sounds and voice acting were amazing. IMPUS NETRUM - NYHAHAHAHA!
  • It's a strategy game but also a full on 3D shooter, if you use the Symbiosis spell. Not just that, but creatures have their individual view points, skills and abilities. Need to exhaust a gas trap? Run over it 50 times with a big red devil thing (I played in German as a kid, don't remember the names of everything). Want to scout around? Become a fly and literally fly around with hex-cell vision!
  • There was little debris falling from the dungeon ceilings, making splashing sounds in water.
  • Creatures hat pointless details like their blood group, just because.
  • You could find special items to transfer creatures from one level to the next (hello level 10 captured knight)
  • Finding diamond veins was truly an accomplishment and changed the map
  • Horny was a mad lad, needed his own dungeon and would slaughter your own creatures
  • The animosity between certain creature types, requiring separate dormitories or hard choices: Spiders vs. Bugs and Flies, Skeletons vs. Fat horned red demons, Skeletons vs. Vampires and more
  • The torture animations
  • The humor on the map choices
  • The voiced insults you could throw around
  • The race against time as your imps barely managed to get the walls reinforced when the dwarves come digging
  • The intro
  • The creatures all having various abilities like trolls working in the workshop, wizards and vampires researching in the library
  • The temple allowing you to combine creatures into new/better creatures or to insult the gods
  • Ghosts rising from dead heroes in the graveyard
  • Being able to raise a little lizard thing into a dragon
  • The various types of doors with the swirling magic door which just looked so cool
  • The Indiana Jones stone ball trap that literally killed everything in it's path, not just hurt or injured, no, flat out kill ANYTHING including level 10 creatures your own included. NO MERCY
  • The Iron Maidens, oh my
  • The chicken farms
  • The speed up spell
  • Pressing CTRL+R to get slightly less pixelated graphics on the dungeon textures
  • The fact that you could drop your creatures without them getting stunned from the fall and be active immediately to fight - This is likely my biggest gripe with almost all "spiritual successors" including Dungeon Keeper 2. Always hated that I need to sort of kind of anticipate enemy arrival times like Deutsche Bahn and fail to deliver my creatures on time like American Market Makers

Honestly, I can gush about this game so much and it has inspired a life long love in me for Imps and Imp-inspired creatures. This is where my username and online presence today comes from and I love the little critters dearly.

What was your favorite part?

Dang, is it that time of year already? New Imperor Stream schedule dropped? And we're still playing Dave the Diver on Monday, Mad Max on Thursday and Stellaris on STARTurday?

Is this what a consistent relationship with a reliable parasocial partner feels like? God damn right it is! The Imperor is here to hang out with you and YOU are invited to come hang out with him! Or rather me. It is I, who is him.

I only picked it up recently and I have put in 230+ hours (granted, some on stream) but I think it is one of the most fun survival games out there for me and a great zombie themed game overall.

I really appreciate the inventory handling, that there are no bosses and just zombies to deal with. My only gripe is - as with many of these games - that there isn't a real end to a playthrough. But such is the nature of a sandbox.

Absolutely not worth the full price tag, but on sale it's an easy recommendation from me.

GDPR has plenty provisions where other laws or considerations may be more relevant than it, negating it in such cases.

I still do think the GDPR is extremely important, but it is no silver bullet,sadly.

That's amazing - Would it be fine if I covered this on my (very, very small) YouTube channel? My content isn't really related to anything fitness, but I am in the process of getting a bit fitter at the moment, so this could be a very fun thing to do and talk about for me, as I do have a weak spot for both RPGs and privacy respecting apps!
