Has Jodio doing the absolute cinema pose. I always thought the pose was amusing, but now it's a meme and I can reasonably point it out

Crazy. And he was still doing stuff up until yesterday; he was at the White House on Easter. Like, imagine just doing stuff and then like 8 hours later you die. We're also now popeless, which is another weird thing.

It’s a very surprising statistic to me since no fat milk and whatnot is very big, despite only changing 3% of the milk.

Extrinsic rewards are rewards for the player whose focus is beyond the gameplay of the game. TC2's enjoyment loop relies on players having fun playing TC2, aka their intrinsic fun of the game.

However, I think that TC2 could benefit from the introduction of extrinsic rewards. These are things like contracts, which do not directly tie into the gameplay of the game, but are fun regardless because they offer a challenge and provide a reward.

TC2 has sort of ruined rewards, since they put every possible thing that could be considered a reward in shops. Strange parts, paint cans, gift wrap, crates, (strangifiers and unusualifiers, for a time,) all of these available to players in a way that is not particularly cool (being a shop).

The things that TC2 has in the extrinsic reward system are crates, drops, and contracts. The problem with these systems is that hits on them are always either bad or ridiculously rare. 99% of crates aren't unusual, 97% games don't have a drop (with debately 70% of those drops being bad), and 100% of contracts are lame.

There are just so many things that could be added to make the game more extrinsically enjoyable. Make contracts give good rewards for a long-term challenge, make drops more focused (like doing a or b will give you x or y item), use FOMO. Battle Pass was actually awesome, but it was so underused.

Maybe I'm just getting a little burnt out of TC2, and the intrinsic enjoyment I get from it isn't as much as it was before, but I still totally think that these systems could totally be made to be more enjoyable.

And the wiki is dead. So I'm probably going to try and post a ton on here, even if my posts end up being kinda stream of thought (SoT).

First SoT: do people watch invincible weekly? I remember I made a post about the last episode the day after it aired and only goat fanatic responded to it. but then other people still seem amiable towards invincible, and it seems uncharacteristic of the wiki to not engage with a post talking about an IP they like.

Or, if not that, should be disabled in the last 10 seconds of a round/in overtime
