    I liked healing in MMOs when all I had to do was click healthbars to fill them up. Other people did all the hard work of actually fighting monsters, and I got loot!

    Now MMOs want to make healers “interesting” so that more people will play them, and this means I have to contend with actual mechanics and sometimes even deal damage. Sorry, my brain does not multitask, I’m simply not cut out for this anymore. :P

    This one isn’t even real. “Fewer” can only refer to countable things, but “less” can refer to both countable and uncountable things, and has been used that way for hundreds of years. It has never been wrong to say “less.”


  • I mean that sounds nice, but honestly I don’t “progress” nearly as much as I “faff about” so stuff like XP lets me have the illusion of progress while I spend 30 hours roaming around the starting area looking for collectibles. I’m not sure what a real-time effect on that would look like.

    What the hell is up with the board and notation? The board is off by 90 degrees, the bottom left square should be black (unless we’re looking from the side, but the labels suggest we’re not, because the letters are across the bottom like normal). And then if you actually look at the file and rank labels, they don’t match across the board—the leftmost file is marked “a” on the bottom, but “h” on the top, and the ranks are the same way.

    They specifically designed it to annoy chess players, LMAO.
