While I’m not familiar with the practices of Tai Chi and its history, I am familiar with the stories and mysticism of “inner” martial arts and chi due to my cultural background. I’ve always been fascinated with martial arts and kung fu, and have recently taken up karate and its cultural histories. I also have a degree in kinesiology and will agree that the human body is such a complex and fascinating subject. The word “chi” or “ki” literally means air or in the context of martial arts, breath, and I will associate it as such. In every martial arts that I’ve seen, breathing is always a subject in the forefront. But as far as listening to tall tale stories and feats that chi can achieve, I always smile and nod but take it with a grain of salt

Hey cut him some slack. He just wanted to be a father really bad. Often male eagles will assist in taking turns brooding the eggs with the mothers and many other parental duties

Probably none of that, since a ring is made for a finger. It probably magically detects if it has made contact with one. Now, if the question was what if it was put on a severed finger, then that is something to think about

Hey I understand where you’re coming from. I also believe that’s one of the areas the sequel can improve upon. With a bigger team and budget, hopefully we’ll get that

I remember playing the first one when it was just available for early access and the gameplay was understandably rough. I played a little bit and then forgotten about until last year when there were some buzz about it again. I brushed off the dust and got to experience such an immersive medieval world. 10/10 in my book

I read that in Matt Berry’s voice and it fits exceptionally well lol

Reminds me of this video where the guy gobbles at a turkey farm and can’t keep it together: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9zvgcOrTtw

I haven’t actually seen it but it sounds like the premise of Her

I’m only five posts in and I’m already mentally tired

Ah it’s like reuniting with old friends

Feng Shui is just an ancient Chinese way of saying “A E S T H E T I C S”

Obviously this is all for the meme and I agree with you that Europe has a lot of famous myths and folklore but you are daft if you think North America only has Big Foot/Sasquatch before creepypasta. Let me name a few for you: Jersey Devil, Wendigo, Mothman, UFO aliens, Flatwoods Monster, Skinwalker. Almost every state in the US has a cryptid. We got the Native American folklore to derive from. Not even including Mexico’s vast folklore and cryptids.

Isn’t that the whole theme of the game though? Jin was raised as a samurai with a strict honor code. He had to sacrifice his identity by adopting to the shadows to save his Island and his uncle who gave him his identity. Sekiro was raised as a shinobi, so stealth was ingrained in him

Really cool to see a new IP from Capcom and it being an aesthetically pleasing defense tower game is interesting and takes me back to the Onimusha/Okami/Viewful Joe days

Probably because MMO is not the trending buzz word for execs and shareholders. Plus you got an example of a successful live service game (Helldivers 2). Doubtful that these are the type of people to be in touch with what people actually wants

I get where you’re coming from but I’ve witness toxicity regarding masculinity from both men and women. Honestly, it’s definitely possible to have healthy relationships with other dudes. All of my best friends are guys and we aren’t afraid to talk about anything, like our feelings. So it’s really the company you keep that really matters, regardless of gender imo

Sometimes you get tired of sitting in a chair all day. Especially if you don’t work from home

These good boys and girls deserve it

Thanks friend! May all us get some well deserved rest

Me but with tiredness and depression instead of bologna
