    this war of mine had a similar problem, if the npc is too sad or whatever he will refuse to do anything to ensure his survival. Shit's moronic, makes me wonder if these devs ever had a single bad day in their lives.

          Rimword is clearly, very deliberately silly. But you just compared character in This War of Mine who lost his will to live to "having a bad day", and that is pretty fricking hilarious.

                being stressed will literally never override the feeling of actual pain, and this pawn presumably has been in fights before if he has armor and a gun so it's not like killing the prisoner would be something unimaginable to him.

                Again, we were talking about This War of Mine. Rimword is a silly game by design. Not to mention, this isn't about being simply stressed, it's about the character going through a complete breakdown.
                I've seen people with severe treatment resistant depression, such as triggered by PTS, that were literally unable to get up to take a piss. These people had at times incredibly painful sores and bedsores, that were never the less not being addressed until the paramedics literally drag them up.
                I have a friend who works as a physiotherapeut at a severe depression ward, her job is to check patients who are unable to prevent developing them, exercising with them the same way you would do with an immobile elderly or a spine injury patient.
                So this shit IS very real. RImworld may be silly in presentation, again by design, but pretending that severe trauma, mental breakdown, depression, all of which can and do develop as a result of extremely stressful or otherwise horrifying living condition, aren't a real problem, is a joke.

                idk if your esl or something but if somebody called you kid as an adult it was an insult. the very nicest way kid could ever be said to an adult is if youre a 20something year old rookie and your older and more experienced cohort says it to you. and even then hes still calling you new shit.

                I'm not even ESL, but I have traveled the world, and I can assure you:
                Only people who get offended by that - especially here where calling others "gays" is literally the normal form of addression - are insecure children, who absolutely hate being reminded of who they are.

                Also, if you claim to be an english native speaker, how the frick have you never seen a bunch of peers literally summoning themselves up by saying shit like "Come on, Kids! Where should we go for that drink?
                Because that shit is normal in english, as it is in all other languages in the world. Have you never been in an informal group of peers in your life?

                I mean, this isn't that situation. I'm calling you a child because YOU ARE INSANELY IMMATURE, but this shit is a common form of addression.

                no. thats not something people normally say to their adult peers, because referring to somebody as a child when they are not is an insult. its saying that theyre immature or stupid or even just inexperienced but regardless, that thereis a failing. you might just be autistic and unable to tell when people say things jokingly or when theyre serious. there is a huge difference between disparaging but jovial and simply saying something. and the post that started this entire "child" discussion was very very clearly an insult. you fricking jumped up self obsessed childish psude.

                Not if you are not incredibly insecure about your own maturity, kid. I'm calling you a kid because every time you shit yourself for being called a child, you prove that you actually are a child.

                Then why isn't suicide in the game? In a situation where somebody had a depressive mental break to the point they didn't want to continue living then they'd put a gun in their mouth and pull the trigger, not let themselves be slowly beaten to death over the course of hours because they just can't be assed to do anything about it. You can't take the "it's realistic" approach only half the time.

            you don't know anything about anything. sheltered homosexual

            soldiers kill themselves all the time. would it be better if they just shot themselves in the head when they have a breakdown instead of just passively waiting to be killed?

            isn't it a shame that not every pawn in every game is a perfect as you?

            Behold, the melodramatic homosexualS that write our games.

            The kind if people who don't actually study anything but just watch movies and cartoons as references for human responses.
            The people who don't understand that adrenaline will kick the frick in regardless of any mental breakdown. Because doctors, criminal psychologists, soldiers all understand that all humans in danger have 2 responses: flight or fight. Nobody could possibly be "too depressed" or "too stressed" to not react to a dangerous situation. whatever mood or stress you're dealing with will be superceded by your monkeys brain's natural desire for survival.
            Depression is real, anxiety and stress and mental breakdowns are real. But so is raw response to danger.
            If someone is being attacked their heartrate automatically jumps, they get tunnel vision, they see red. I don't care who you are. Nobody can ignore danger, especially when being attacked by another person.

            The example in op is obviously a guy who is in an extremely stressful situation, but he's armed, he senses danger, whatever emotions he has wouldn't matter once he's actually being attacked in the moment. He wouldn't stand still and take a beating to the death for hours, especially if he's a guy with a gun. It's video game ludonarrative, something that can only exist in a video game because the developer coded people to act and behave the way he wanted. It's not accurate, but hacks like you who think you get psychology but never actually study it will treat this game as accurate.

            Go read any textbook about danger. Fricking morons.

                The only time you see someone not react with fight or flight and just take a beating is in those ISIS execution videos. But those were people who were drugged, beaten relentlessly into submission and tortured. Those are the most extreme examples and yet you still see motherfrickers chained drugged and bruised trying to make an escape.

                Here is my experience:
                "NUH UH, NUUUUUH UHHHHHHHHHHH".

                Oh yeah, and to expand on this hilarious post:
                [...]
                You must have at least SEEN a person with an anxiety attack in your life, right?
                Well that, my dear sweet moronic child, is nothing more than "flight or fight" response in practice. Because the truth is, that fight or fight response can just as well absolutely paralyze a person, because brains are a very complicated issue.
                But please, keep on makiing thinly veiled "well actually, if it was ME, I'd be super awesome and amazing dude!" posts.
                And keep on being suprised why other people call you an absolute child.

                Having an anxiety attack is not the topic here. We're talking about how people react to DANGER and physical harm. I stand by my fricking statement because you have no argument. You seriously think someone suffering a mental breakdown will ignore danger while you reference scenarios where the person who is stunned with inaction isn't in danger. You'll keep referencing your real world examples of PTSD, stress, anxiety and so on, yet you keep refusing the acknowledge how people react to fight or flight. NOBODY is too depressed to react to a beating unless you're physically exhausted.

                You homosexuals are so up your own ass. Go back to fricking tumblr where you jerk off to melodrama.

                Do you think people don't get anxiety attacks when they are in a situation of actual real threat? Seriously? Is this the level of conversation we are having?

                Your entire argument hinges on "fight or flight response means you'll always totally kick ass in a tense situation", without you even realizing that it is the fight or flight response that literally makes people completely freeze up and fail to respond adequately to the situation.

                I don't think you ever been in a school yard fight, kid, much less have any clue what it is like to be faced with real challenges.

                TLDR: You did not know what a fight or flight response is, you are the one with no argument here.

                We're talking about the difference between curling up and getting killed by small animals, and putting up ANY amount of fight. Put heavy penalties on combat to show they're not in the right state to 'kick ass' as you say, but it's stupid as frick to just turn off any ability to respond.

                Kid, at this point, we are dealing with people unable to understand what the words "much less" mean, kids inironically saying "well people traumatized by war are just pussies, if it was me, I'd be super kick ass!" and a literal school yard worth of kids crying because they were called "kids".

                My argument is simple. You should not talk about subjects you have absolutely no way of understanding. Don't talk about flight or fight response if you did not know that anxiety attack is a manifestation of that exact response. Don't talk about war is actually easy and fine and everyone who ends up scarred is a pussy if you never even talked to a war survivor in your life.
                Generally, don't talk at all, because there is no way you are not going to embarrass yourself, regardless of the subject.

                >Only video game badasses fight back

                So what you're saying is, a man armed with a gun would just sit still and take a beating Until he died because he's too upset or stressed out to react?

                I can't take you seriously if you keep calling me kid. Seriously, you're trying so hard to appear like you have so much more authority and you refuse to acknowledge any other point. You can't argue without insults, and you act immature to anyone that replies to you. Nobody takes you seriously because you don't act like someone with authority, you act like someone who just happened to pick an arbitrary side and no wants to debate it until the thread dies and nobody replies. It's assinine.

                For the last time kid, we were talking about two different examples: one being from an obviously silly, over-the-top game called Rimworld, the other being from a game based on research into real stories of Serebian war survival called This War of Mine.

                And you are clearly taking me calling you a child VERY seriously, that is why you are throwing endless hissyfits about it.

                I'm just going to let this hang there, because this proves my point better than anything I could ever say.

                people generally don't default to "suicidal apathy" when their lives are at risk, that makes no fricking sense. Every jumper that survives says their first thought is immediately wishing they didn't jump. People starving in Africa aren't suicidal, they're desperate for their next meal and water source. Totally idiotic.

                These are games built around survival and struggle made by people obsessed with fantasies of their own death that stay all day in bed because they're sad cuz they read a news article about a conservative winning an election or something

                >people generally don't default to "suicidal apathy" when their lives are at risk
                A whole bunch of things wrong here. Starting with the concept of "suicidal apathy", because that is actually an oxymoron.
                Do you know why virtually all anti-depressants contain a warning that in the early stages of the treatment, there is an rather major INCREASE IN RISK OF SUICIDAL BEHAVIOR?

                Suicide is an action. It requires will, determination. Apathy is the exact opposite of suicidal behavior. What you may mean is apathy resulting in lack of self-preservance. Which is a pretty different thing.
                And because of that, your analogy, with jumpers, is completely nonsensical.
                And I can assure you, apathy resulting in failure to take self-preserving actions is a VERY common problem in extemely poor condition environments in Africa.

                Again. Human mind is more complicated than you people think. So are human responses to various forms of stress and poor living conditions. You are speaking from a position of someone who never HAD to actually confront crisis situations in his life. Everything you say is based on pure, vapid speculation from a perspective of someone who not only hasn't faced real adversity, but who's family three generation back didn't.

                You have NO hands-on experiences. I have. I often wish I didn't.
                Your speculation will never be worth anything, it is not supported by either education, or experience. And it is frankly kinda terrifying that you don't realize this.

                Do you SERIOUSLY not feel that basic human instinct against speaking out of your ass about grave subjects?
                Did seriously nobody teach you that talking out of your ass is a bad thing?

                Kid, you are SERIOUSLY trying to pull of the fricking navy seals copypasta right now while also claiming to be clinically depressed.
                Fun fact, the term "clinical depression" means that the patient is deemed unable to control his mental condition without external help. Which means that in combat situation, where your constant readiness and long periods without access to constant medical care are absolutely paramouth, makes you a liability.
                Which is why no civilized army allows people with this condition to serve at active warzones. Clinical depression means you are not reliable enough for such conditions. It's a legitimate, and common justification for relief from duty. But you will tell me how I don't understand these things, sure.

                The only actually possible way your hilarious story about how you are a bad ass killed (because that is the shit you are trying to sell here, kid) while also suffering from clinical depression, is that you are keeping this health condition a SECRET from your officers, in which case you are actually commiting a fellony and are insanely, criminally irresponsible.

                Of course, that is unless being a kid talking about how he totally understands war and how it's not a big deal but also understands depression and is also a stone cold killing mashine is all an act.

                I wonder which one it may be.

                Yeah. That really shows me about my point about what the medical definition of "clinical depression" is and why that proves your story about having served wrong.
                Saying "homosexual moronicus" after being told the actual medical and legal ramifications of the terms you used, it's such an epic win for you!

                I don't think you understand how this works.
                Someone genuinely trying to intimidate others by claiming how they are a bad-ass navy seal is what makes that copypasta funny.

                Not simply identifying clear lies and stupidity in what others say.
                This whole thread is literally people saying "there is no such thing as stress or trauma, and people who claim there is are pussies", while I shit you not, pretending to be both elite soldiers AND clinically depressed without even realizing that is a contradiction.

                And you are fine with all that, that is according to you, sane and dignified response.

                Saying - human reaction to stress is very complicated matter, war isn't all fun and games, and if you don't know that clinical depression is a condition that prevents you from frontline deployment - that is crossing the line, right?

                Oh wait. It's the word "kid". The most horrible, abominable, heretical curse of all time, the word that makes the world stop turning, the end of all life, a curse that can NEVER BE FORGIVEN!!!!

                I just want to sum up the discussion in this thread.
                It started with people saying that they don't understand how a person trapped in an active warzone of a brutal civil war for months could lose their will to live, claiming that "fight or fight response means I'd totally kick ass in their situation".
                It continued with people unironically saying "anyone traumatized by a war is just a pussy, I would kick ass so much!"
                It peaked with a person unironically claiming he is a super elite soldier with dozens of kills and many deployments because he fricking LOVES WAR, but he is also clinically depressed but that does not actually affect how much he kills and kicks ass!

                And now we are at a point where somebody is using the fact that he autistically collects wojack pictures as a "gotcha" argument.

                That is the actual summary of this thread. I don't think I've ever seen so much human refuge collecting in a single thread in my life.

                Yes, those anons are being unreasonably inconsiderate of many factors, as internet tough guys do. However they're not any less unreasonable than the one trying to justify the idea that a person could be stressed to just the right level where they have enough composure to meander around a room in heavy armor while carrying a weapon, but would not react at all as an unarmed person slowly whittles away at their body for literal hours. There ARE degrees of trauma that could lead to behavior similar to that, for example depression could make one apathetic to a disease eating away at their body, but the scenario OP presents is, to put it bluntly, fricking moronic.

                Suicide *mid battle* is exceptionally rare nowadays, and even back in WW2, and was typically the result of a hopeless situation. A soldier's PTSD usually shows up later, after the fact. And I doubt it would take the form of doing nothing while being physically assaulted for hours. That would make sense if they were in a coma. I don't think a guy in power armor being attacked by an unarmed nudist is particularly hopeless.

                If anyone should be morbidly depressed it should be the naked prisoner, he's apparently been in Abu Ghraib if he's naked.

                your girlfriend was awake and lucid while wearing heavy armor and being beaten for several hours? The post doesn't mention drug use.

                You clearly haven't been reading my post at all. Which makes me wonder:
                Why did you think you should respond to someone if you have no clue what that person said?

                I thought "no one is talking about the op" but I can address the comment in the screenshot: It's just missing a lot of context. There's no info on the pawns stats or ailments, or if it's being forced to wear the power armor since it's the last pawn alive. What I do know from playing the game a lot is that it's very likely the pawn is strung out on drugs and suffering from multiple ailments since the player is whining about dying in the most pleb way that usually ends a lot new players.

                How dumb are you?

                >anxiety attack
                don't you think a trained soldier or fighter of some sort would resort to violence if they were suddenly panicking, rather than *doing nothing* while getting smacked for 4 hours? No one has posted even a single real world example to back up this idiotic implementation of a sanity mechanic. Depression and suicidal ideation go out the window virtually 100% of the time in the short term when your life is suddenly in danger.

                I would point out how we were talking about a game whose tagline is literally "in war, not everyone is a soldier" but honestly, what is the point.
                You guys are literally just raving here. Some would call it moving goalposts, going from civilians trapped in an active warfront, to highly trained solidiers, as a base of the argument, honestly, I don't think it deserves even that.

                You are an idiot, I'm going to bet you were the person who thought saying "flight or fight response is what causes panic and anxiety strikes" translated to "denying flight or fight response exists."

                okay, it makes a lot more sense that he walked around doing nothing while a nude man beat him to death with his fists through his power armor. Stupid, stupid, stupid fricking reasoning. It's dumb for me to assume the guy in power armor has training or experience, but it's totally sensible to assume he's a fresh off the boat potash maker who can't differentiate between bad dreams and getting punched in the face

                Kid, you are losing control COMPLETELY over someone calling you a kid, but you claim that people dealing with the actual stress of an actual war are all pussies.

                You are screeching in completely unhinged temper-tantrum at me for suggesting that you might not know much about dealing with stress.

                I can't make this shit up. You can't handly an online discussion, that is too much stress for you to remain lucid, and your point is how trauma of a real war isn't a thing.

                My argument is simple. You should not talk about subjects you have absolutely no way of understanding. Don't talk about flight or fight response if you did not know that anxiety attack is a manifestation of that exact response. Don't talk about war is actually easy and fine and everyone who ends up scarred is a pussy if you never even talked to a war survivor in your life.
                Generally, don't talk at all, because there is no way you are not going to embarrass yourself, regardless of the subject.

                The kind if people who don't actually study anything but just watch movies and cartoons as references for human responses.
                The people who don't understand that adrenaline will kick the frick in regardless of any mental breakdown. Because doctors, criminal psychologists, soldiers all understand that all humans in danger have 2 responses: flight or fight. Nobody could possibly be "too depressed" or "too stressed" to not react to a dangerous situation. whatever mood or stress you're dealing with will be superceded by your monkeys brain's natural desire for survival.
                Depression is real, anxiety and stress and mental breakdowns are real. But so is raw response to danger.
                If someone is being attacked their heartrate automatically jumps, they get tunnel vision, they see red. I don't care who you are. Nobody can ignore danger, especially when being attacked by another person.

                The example in op is obviously a guy who is in an extremely stressful situation, but he's armed, he senses danger, whatever emotions he has wouldn't matter once he's actually being attacked in the moment. He wouldn't stand still and take a beating to the death for hours, especially if he's a guy with a gun. It's video game ludonarrative, something that can only exist in a video game because the developer coded people to act and behave the way he wanted. It's not accurate, but hacks like you who think you get psychology but never actually study it will treat this game as accurate.

                Go read any textbook about danger. Fricking morons.

                You must have at least SEEN a person with an anxiety attack in your life, right?
                Well that, my dear sweet moronic child, is nothing more than "flight or fight" response in practice. Because the truth is, that fight or fight response can just as well absolutely paralyze a person, because brains are a very complicated issue.
                But please, keep on makiing thinly veiled "well actually, if it was ME, I'd be super awesome and amazing dude!" posts.
                And keep on being suprised why other people call you an absolute child.

              I think being trapped on a warfront won't stop you from taking the necessary action to survive.

              I can say that thinking about the what people experience at war is far different from actually experiencing it in person. You can't sympathize with something that isn't real, just as much as the gays that would argue that whacking it to cartoon isn't the same as committing real sexual abuse.
              I know not every soldier comes home with PTSD, but you know that some do and no amount of justification can help these people. If your word is as true as you'd like to believe, there wouldn't be PTSD or Trauma victims

              It would actually make sense and make you think "oh shit" and not "god damn it the game is practically bugging out".
              See, it's not about making the game easier, it's about making it not look moronic.

              Yeah, because suicide actually makes sense. How many soldiers let themselves get nibbled to death by rats despite being physically fit to stop them? Now how many soldiers just fricking shoot themselves because they can't take it anymore?
              One is actually realistic, the other is moronic.

              while i'm not disagreeing (i think it would be good), the people complaining about how breakdowns work in rimworld would seethe to the ends of the earth if they just instantly lost a character to suicide. the problem isn't "realism" the problem is "the game is too hard for me, that's bullshit rng, i hate when the game is unpredictable i just want to play a spreadsheet"

                Ever wondered why this makes you absolute lose any track of the conversation and literally start pissing yourself?

                Fun fact: adults don't mind being called a "kid". It's even a regular form of informal addression among many, MANY adult people. Only children poorly but desperately trying to pretend they are adults do.
                You freak out about being called a "child" because you immediately think "SHIT, THEY ARE ONTO ME!!!!"

                idk if your esl or something but if somebody called you kid as an adult it was an insult. the very nicest way kid could ever be said to an adult is if youre a 20something year old rookie and your older and more experienced cohort says it to you. and even then hes still calling you new shit.

                Anon the depression is just a debuff in a video game. The characters don't talk, are barely animated, and there's no real context as to why they're not fighting back besides what's in the battlelog (not pictured) and whatever larp you come up with in your head. Being too apathetic to fight back is something an anon hypothesized but it's not what actually happened in the game. There's multiple realistic scenarios why someone wouldn't fight back; the bystander effect is one of them as are the many other scenarios mentioned itt. If you think it's a bad mechanic, you're wrong but you can probably mod it out. If you think it doesn't simulate reality, you're just wrong.

                Your argument is literally an unproven hypothetical. The alternative hypothesis is that nothing is different to a normal person. It's actually up to you to prove that something changed, because Occam's razor is against you. That's how a hypothesis worked.

          Behold, the melodramatic homosexualS that write our games.

          The kind if people who don't actually study anything but just watch movies and cartoons as references for human responses.
          The people who don't understand that adrenaline will kick the frick in regardless of any mental breakdown. Because doctors, criminal psychologists, soldiers all understand that all humans in danger have 2 responses: flight or fight. Nobody could possibly be "too depressed" or "too stressed" to not react to a dangerous situation. whatever mood or stress you're dealing with will be superceded by your monkeys brain's natural desire for survival.
          Depression is real, anxiety and stress and mental breakdowns are real. But so is raw response to danger.
          If someone is being attacked their heartrate automatically jumps, they get tunnel vision, they see red. I don't care who you are. Nobody can ignore danger, especially when being attacked by another person.

          The example in op is obviously a guy who is in an extremely stressful situation, but he's armed, he senses danger, whatever emotions he has wouldn't matter once he's actually being attacked in the moment. He wouldn't stand still and take a beating to the death for hours, especially if he's a guy with a gun. It's video game ludonarrative, something that can only exist in a video game because the developer coded people to act and behave the way he wanted. It's not accurate, but hacks like you who think you get psychology but never actually study it will treat this game as accurate.

          Go read any textbook about danger. Fricking morons.

              Kid, the reason why you can't stop posting those is because you are hurt.
              What I said, or maybe just what I represent, hurts you so back that you can't control yourself. You HAVE to get "back at me", you have to defend yourself from my presence.

              But you don't have an argument, or a witty comeback, or anything.
              All you have, your entire life achievement, is collecting cancerous reddit memes.

              And that is why we are here, in this situation. You desperately throwing pictures that are far more embarrassing for you than they are for me, because you have nothing else to defend yourself, but you cannot stop trying to kick back.

              How does it feel that I know all of that? How will you feel when I leave or this thread 404rd and this is all that you've managed to accomplish?

                Yes, it really is. Imagine collecting this stuff.

                I am the entp who understands that there are no steps to be taken.
                you have already wrapped yourself in your own webs to such a massive degree nobody can save you anymore
                everyone knows intj is a gigantic autist. that's the whole irony of the matter. we know. everyone knows. you're an autist, moronic, inept, the only one who can't see it is you
                you will react to my usage of the image in a completely predictable way in order to attempt to "ensnare me" in some kind of psychological trick again, as you erroneously believe you have this capacity
                you cannot win against someone who isn't playing a game. yet you are incapable of perceiving reality in any other way

                Wow, you are actually losing your cool now. I've gotta say, I genuinely believed that you are just an autist using these pics as a coping mechanism, and that you will keep posting them until I leave of the thread dies.
                But your issues are clearly quite raw. Or perhaps, you realized that you enjoy this because even negative attention is still attention, and you are now at the risk of losing it.
                Either way, it's still a pitiful sight. Do you enjoy humiliating yourself like this for the tiniest drip of attention?
                I don't mind offering it, I just think nobody, not even you, should aspire to such desperate means to get people looking your way for a split second.

                I'm not wrong on this subject. I assume that I am wrong all the time. It's kinda necessary in academia, where constant review of your own beliefs is the main process of knowledge construction.

                Here, however, I'm not discussing the particular efficiency of our psychological support for refugees and potential improvements for that.
                I simply said that stress, trauma, and mental damage can cause horrible things, including situations where one may seem to actually lose any will to live, unable to participate not only in tasks necessary for one's survival, but even excercise basic body control.

                This isn't something that requires deep discussion, this isn't something I can be wrong about, because there is so much fricking empirical evidence for this that it is straight up undeniable.
                I can and often am wrong on particularities, but this is not one of them. Go visit a refugee center or a psych ward and see for yourself.

                I can't think of a clearer example of a good game than Factorio, really. It has a lot of depth and complexity, yet can be very rewarding even in short bursts, it has crazy skill celling but remains fun on all, even lower skill levels, it's insanely polished, with some of the best optimization and dedication to bug fixing I've ever seen... It's a simple premise, "easy to learn but difficult to master mechanic, and it has insane potential for user-made content.

                What else would it be lacking from being considered a good game?

                Well it DID basically define that genre, and genre-defining works usually do so thanks to their quality.
                If you ever look into something similar, I personally enjoyed the recent Capitain of Industry quite a lot. It's nowhere near as clean as Factorio, and it's still in very early access, but it did give me similar kicks.

                Can't say the same for Satisfactory.
                Also, if you don't mind more of a city-building bent, Workers and Resources are definitely worth looking out for, though much like Capitain of Industry, keep in mind it's an EA, and you might want to wait if you don't want to deal with the usual early access issues.

                where to start is always a tough question
                the greeks are a safe answer because their philosophy is accessible and not politically loaded
                but i guess it depends on what you're after
                some philosophers also require a but of preparation reading from others

                wait, i got it
                Kierkegaard is a good mix of accessible and profound. Relatively down to earth, and useful for practical things in life
                If you want to go full abstract autist, Kant and Hegel are good, but that takes determination.

                Honestly Kierkegaard is my answer for a good start. His work "Either/Or" is nice

                Fantastic, thank you very much anon. Also, could you elaborate on your description of Kant and Hegel being "abstract"? Abstract philosphy isn't a term I've heard of before.

              • 2 years ago
                Anonymous

                Kant is abstract because he is trying to get to something that inherently cannot be described.
                In his first Critique (of Pure Reason) he is trying to describe how the mind perceives the world. But he realises that in order to do so he has to make use of those perceptions in the first place. Same goes for our capacity for reason. He criticizes out capacity for reason making use OF reason to do so (that's why it's a Critique OF Pure Reason)
                He gets to really wacky stuff like time and space not being actual things but constructs of the mind, of the "subject" being a void term, that it's impossible to ever affirm the existence of an object outside of our perception and so on. Very tough to read but a great payoff.

                Hegel describes how truth comes to be through a kind of evolutionary/dialectic process (without ever mentioning the term evolution). He talks about how the truth is everything that is, and that was in the past, but we can never predict the future.
                Hegel is very tough to summarize but I would do it with the phrase: "God is coming but will never arrive". It might make sense after reading his Phenomenology of the Geist (but that is for lunatics)

                This is basically the thought that got me interested in philosophy in the first place. I don't know what it says about me that the one meme of mickey mouse talking about how you trust the chemicals in your brain to tell you they're chemicals and that all knowledge is ultimately based on that which we cannot prove sent me down this rabbit hole but that's how it happened.

                That meme unironically contains the essence of that issue.
                I am extremely fascinated by how memes are capable of transmitting complex ideas extremely quickly, and in a way that can dissolve preexisting paradigms pretty effectively.

                For the record I don't think you're entirely wrong. Trauma can make people do batshit crazy stuff, I understand that much. I just think in this particular example a dude in full power armor versus an unarmed nobody should end up with the unarmed guy losing the fight. Even if it takes the suited up guy multiple minutes to come to his senses or for survival instincts to kick in. Especially considering that the guy in the OP's image seems to have a fairly set up colony at the point that this is happening. I'm sure the pawn in question was able to sleep in a bed and is fed well enough. Not being adequetly entertained shouldn't be enough to put a person in the mental state where they would allow themselves to be beaten to death despite holding something that would instantly solve the problem.

                Well, I did start the discussion by clearly saying that Rimworld IS silly. I repeated that a lot through out this discussion. My complaint wasn't aimed at the Rimworld thing, but at the This War of Mine comment, and then at people who generally deny the actual impact stress or mental fatigue can have. It all started with a guy saying a character loosing will to do jobs necessary to survive in This War of Mine is just like "Having a bad day".
                I feel kinda crazy having to repeat that all the time.
                I mean, I think I could find a casuistic for a case of such severe mental exhaustion or shift of mental state as described in OP's picture, but I'm sure as hell it would be a complete curiosity, and not really an argument.

                I stand by everything I said about TWoM and about the nature of stress, mental fatigue, and fight-or-flight response in general.
                I'll (now quite happily) repeat my point that what OP describes in that picture is completely silly and absolutely not realistic.

                just graduated begin summer, no work yet
                so i'm enjoying my final weeks as a completely free person
                furthermore i am now sick of the education system and there were too many snobby homosexuals i had to deal with
                i have learned everything i wanted to, pretty much, but i don't pretend to be holier than thou nor that my education gives me more authority on anything despite the fact that philosophy does train you to think clearly

                Well, you just spend like four hours insisting that I must be angry at you for posting those silly pictures.
                Why? You really should know better than that at this point.

                Well I obviously do understand that, I would not be here if I wasn't familiar with this kind of craving. But I think it's better to do it in a way that isn't, sorry to say this, humiliating to yourself. I wasn't lying when I was saying it was because I enjoy the process, but I always try to do it while saying things I could essentially stand by, even if my presentation may not be exactly normal.
                I really think it's rather unhealthy to not set boundaries for the amount of stuff you are willing to do online for attention. It's consequence free from the perspective of nobody ELSE being able to use it against you, but I don't think it's very healthy for basic self-reflection in the long term.
                I am quite happy to see that me staying here genuinely wasn't pointless, seeing as we are having an actual discussion right now, despite all that mess above though.

                it's not FOR attention
                after this thread gets archived we will probably never interact again. or at least not knowingly.
                any perception of other people on here are irrelevant, and are ultimately projections based on small slivers of information.
                the anonymous nature of the boards allow for doing whatever you want consciously, to see what happens, or not, to just go with the flow, without permanent consequence.
                this is surely why it devolves into toxic behaviour, but i would honestly go insane if i had no release valve for speaking my mind however i wanted. mincing words is extremely tiring

                if i gave you the impression of being a mentally unstable moron with attention issues then i can pretty much assure you you don't have to worry. i will say it is nice to see you being genuinely concerned, as far as that is possible

                I disagree with your assumptions about the implications of anonymity. You should be familiar with views that human being is a result of the action he takes, and decisions he makes. Anonymity may remove other actors, but not you. I spoke of dignity and I think that is a serious consideration one should always have. Because I think there is a consequence to being an ass even if there is no punishment - it's the fact that you voluntarily decide that being an ass is something you are fine with. And I genuinely believe there is a serious risk that this sort of lax standards upon yourself can catch up to you. When I implied you may be addicted to this behavior - it may have been wrong, but it wasn't a baseless assumption. I've seen way too people slowly lose control of their own behavior exactly like this - by assuming there is no harm in such behavior, and then slowly and gradually just losing the restraint that you need to keep situation under control. Human brain is, as I've said several times in this thread, a BIT of a b***h like that.

                What is being an ass?
                Does good and evil exist?
                I have never been able to answer this ontological question on the basis of either material nor abstract premises.
                It wasn't until I started studying religion that I came to the conclusion that morality does indeed flow from God (i will lose many people here but idc)
                And so I do think that objective good exists.
                Does objective evil therefore also exist? Hard to say. I tend to believe that evil is the absence of the proper divine order rather than a different kind of force.
                Anyway, perhaps I sinned here. You might be correct that I strayed too far from the proper order. But I never tried to subvert or harm it.
                I am the kind of dumbass that needs to touch fire before he understands that it burns you. I cannot know the proper boundaries unless I seek them out. And rather than do that with my friends, I rather do it here.

                Being a bother to others while not gaining any benefit for yourself is a good start.
                >I have never been able to answer this ontological question on the basis of either material nor abstract premises.
                That is because they are not ontological, they are pragmatic. Basic axiology, normative theory of meaning, and some insight into evolutionary history of human species can solve that problem quite fast.
                This is why I gave up on philosophy. Creating false problems only to get stuck on. Ontology is a meaningless assumption, a naive hope that epistemology could be deified. It can't. Hoping for that is a way to dodge having to bear the real responsibility that comes from human limitations.
                Morality on a grander scale is a product of human evolutionary necessity to establish stable and reliable modes of cooperative behavior. Functional principles improving, or at least not impeding cooperation, were codified into ethical codexes.
                On a personal scale, they are a system that allows you to live with dignity, and as such, without becoming a victim of brutal, character-twisting insecurities.
                Which is why it is really worth having some basic ethic standards, even if just because of yourself.

    Genuine question here:
    Why does everybody on Ganker constantly look for reasons to be angry? You all look for the tiniest, most minuscule inconsequential reasons just to be upset at something. Why? Do you all like being angry and upset? If so, why? I don’t get it.

    How can you all exist in perpetual negativity and anger; it’s so unhealthy, and it’ll just make your mental and physical health so much worse. Like, Jesus anus-fricking Christ; how do to you all wake up in the morning, knowing that you’re just going to repeat the same cycle of anger, day after day? Don’t you all get tired of it all?

    What pushes you all to keep going - realically, you’re not upsetting ANYBODY when you call them a “double-Black person” or “Reddit”; all you’re doing it upsetting yourself for no reason. I just don’t get it.

          Anyway, I have like 400 hours in RimWorld and I don't think I've ever seen a character go from 100 to 0 HP from a rator two. If I have, they were already very mentally and physically crippled, and still they usually don't die; they just get incapacitated and carried to a bed.

      Nobody gives a frick if a game is unrealistic, because these kinds of ludonarrative events that only happen in video games is entertaining. It's why we laugh at dwarf fortress when a mother is "angry" at seeing a dead body, and uses the baby she's holding as a weapon to bludgeon someone else "out of stress". This is funny.

      The op event is hilarious. Some moron in power armor with a gun is "too sad" to react to a naked ape beating them to death. That shits funny. The reaction from the dev is funny because it's "cry me a river" response.

      It's the anons itt that think they're experts of psychology and this this sort of nonsense is real. Nobody gives a frick about the op, were wondering how anyone can claim it's realistic. It's not. An anyone saying it is, is one of those pseudo intellectual hacks that think they understand complex thought

              Are you just willfully omitting the concept of suppressing fire or do you not know about it?
              In WWI and later wars, the machine gun completely changed how soldiers would handle open combat. Most GIs were firing and moving from cover to cover while marksmen handled picking off key targets. bullets were more expendable than trained soldiers so requisitioning for more ammo was better than losing your soldiers.

      I get it, it sucks your game ended abruptly, but you should expect silly outcomes in these games. That's where the entertainment comes from.

      Take dwarf fortress, if 1 mother sees a dead body they get "mad" or stressed or some shit and will throw her baby, penetrating the captain of the guards skull, who in turn will also be "stressed out" and decapitate the mother, causing a chain reaction of every other dwarf murdering each other out of stress and depression
      The absurdity of the situation is more funny than infuriating. That's why you play these games. The only way to win is to keep your character fed somehow in a metal cage where nothing can hurt them.

    it sounds like the dev didn't even fricking read the post lol. How can anyone think this is sensible? In what scenario have you seen someone still physically able to walk and move about get beaten for hours without lashing out? The only time I've seen anything like this, the person was drugged into a stupor or so old they needed a nurse to roll them over to prevent bed sores. "Not thinking straight" doesn't make any sense either and is usually an excuse for committing violence, not getting your face pushed in for 90 minutes straight while you're oblivious.

      [...]
      >people generally don't default to "suicidal apathy" when their lives are at risk
      A whole bunch of things wrong here. Starting with the concept of "suicidal apathy", because that is actually an oxymoron.
      Do you know why virtually all anti-depressants contain a warning that in the early stages of the treatment, there is an rather major INCREASE IN RISK OF SUICIDAL BEHAVIOR?

      Suicide is an action. It requires will, determination. Apathy is the exact opposite of suicidal behavior. What you may mean is apathy resulting in lack of self-preservance. Which is a pretty different thing.
      And because of that, your analogy, with jumpers, is completely nonsensical.
      And I can assure you, apathy resulting in failure to take self-preserving actions is a VERY common problem in extemely poor condition environments in Africa.

      Again. Human mind is more complicated than you people think. So are human responses to various forms of stress and poor living conditions. You are speaking from a position of someone who never HAD to actually confront crisis situations in his life. Everything you say is based on pure, vapid speculation from a perspective of someone who not only hasn't faced real adversity, but who's family three generation back didn't.

      You have NO hands-on experiences. I have. I often wish I didn't.
      Your speculation will never be worth anything, it is not supported by either education, or experience. And it is frankly kinda terrifying that you don't realize this.

      Do you SERIOUSLY not feel that basic human instinct against speaking out of your ass about grave subjects?
      Did seriously nobody teach you that talking out of your ass is a bad thing?

      >So you have zero real experience and just talk to your betters?
      Once again kid. You are literally just copy-pasting what I said, hoping that it will work the other way around.
      How dumb are you?

      [...]
      I would point out how we were talking about a game whose tagline is literally "in war, not everyone is a soldier" but honestly, what is the point.
      You guys are literally just raving here. Some would call it moving goalposts, going from civilians trapped in an active warfront, to highly trained solidiers, as a base of the argument, honestly, I don't think it deserves even that.

      You are an idiot, I'm going to bet you were the person who thought saying "flight or fight response is what causes panic and anxiety strikes" translated to "denying flight or fight response exists."

      This is starting to be just tiring.

      Kids.
      Your ENTIRE argument is "I have never seen a person who went through war, but I know for a fact that it's actually all cool and kick ass and I would be so amazing at it, and if you disagree you are dumb or a pussy!"

      I should be asking what the frick are you trying to accomplish here.

                They'll probably just beat me to death since I'm almost catatonic from all the dumb posts. But to answer your question, I'm wearing it because I'll be reprimanded if I'm seen taking it off, and it's also comfy to turtle up into and sleep in.

                Notice the distinct lack of IRL examples where someone walked around for hours in extensive armor while another man beat them to death

    I can totally understand going near catatonic under the stress of being unable to play horseshoes for a few days, but I can't suspend my disbelief enough to accept an unarmed naked prisoner somehow punched a suit of power armor for hours without sustaining injuries or simply opting to run away instead

    Okay so to sum this thread up
    >boredom always leading to suicidal apathy is ridiculous
    >it's not the norm but can happen in real life
    So it shouldn't be the default mechanic.

    rimworld is a shit game. I don't care if it's a """""realistic"""" depiction of how people handle stress, it's just tedious to play as. Oh and the game sucks.

    The moronic 'elite' players from Robocraft that were the only ones the devs ever listened to. Look where your game is now morons! I will never forgive those fricking morons for destroying that amazing game. Nothing can replace it.

    You would not complain about people doing mindless moronic shit if you've seen 90% of the workforce in your country.
    Most people you'll ever meet are fricking moronic drones and can't even complete a full shift of work without trying to squirm out of doing what they're paid to do

      A couple of milchads dabbing on morons out of boredom is separate from the topic. The text in the screenshot has been approached at about every angle and no one could refute what the dev said.
