I propose a new drinking game

[Captain Fabulous]

Every time Rudra says "but but POWER CREEP!!!" y'all gotta stop whatever you're doing and take a shot of the most unpalatable liquor available to you at the time.

all change is or can be considered so, against a rule of an absolute static homeostatis in a given version, if everything that could adjust to compensate does not. its what gives a shifting meta, and keeps building fresh over time.

 

but, to those concerned about balance, a change can appear as a growth of weeds. to be carefully monitored with keen eye.

 

some other servers are just whatever-goes-f-it, and it does diminish play exp.

 

step out for a moment. bloodborne. these days there are hacked 'false depth chalice dungeons' which are available in a search function like our most popular AE maps.

 

inside, instead of a ludicrous challenge, with catastrophic debuffs, is instead a single corridor with a trapped defensless treasure beast which will always drop the equivalent of a 55 purple IO. 

 

that straight up ruins pvp, you either get these or you dont, because everyone has them - you know because you get hit 4x harder than you should.

 

an extreme of how decay in a thing and lack of guard, can really shift about a meta.

 

but, still, you shouldnt have to kick/punch to tough/weave 😀

If a point is valid, it doesn't matter how many times it's brought up or how much you dislike it.  If a point is not valid, then state your case.  How about you put your big boy pants on, and if you have an issue with a specific user, either PM them or contact the mods about it.

Power creep, no matter how many times it's repeated, it not a valid point, and instantly makes one's argument null and void. It's just sadly comical at this point, and worthy of a drinking game.

I think the best drinking game is running Patrón missions. Malta at 4x8, take a sip whenever you're end drained and a shot whenever someone faceplants.

Your saying so does not make it so.

My saying the Earth is round also doesn't make it so. But yet, it is. Any concept of power creep in this game was thrown out the window with the IO system and then snapped in half by Incarnates, making it painfully obvious the live devs didn't give a shart about power creep. Using it as a constant excuse as to why any number of minor and/or QoL improvements simply cannot be made is really old and tired at this point, and is deserving of all the ridicule and scorn we can muster and throw at it.

Obviously taking a few steps toward the cliff means we should jump off of it...  🤪

I dunno what started this, and I'm not sure that I care, but calling out specific players isn't very excellent of you, so...
