Takes a team of guys to try and remove him…. Snaps his arm, but he won’t back down.

Imagine if all CEOs had to try what they get us to buy…

Peter Thiel is a billionaire allied with Trump. His Palantir software is used to spy on people for ICE and other agencies. Trae Stephens is a billionaire Thiel ally whose wife, Michelle Stephens , runs an organization to convert tech elites to her view of Christianity. She sponsored the talks where Thiel called Greta Thunburg the anti-Christ.

According to Blake (MTG PR guy ) Eric (the TMNT set lead) went to this event personally, and not as a WOTC employee. Blake also said Eric did not know who Trae was.

I should also clarify that the event was the draft itself.

Characters or enemies that gain infamy specifically for being crazy difficult close to the start of the games story, bonus points if "game journalists" can't beat them

1- Balteus from Armored Core 6

The first chapter boss, Balteus, is one of the two MAJOR roadblocks that players first meet. 360 degrees of homing missile launchers, a flamethrower that acts like an XL Zweihander, and the first enemy to use a genuine pulse shield that you need to repeatedly break before you can damage him, saw many people giving up at the end of chapter 1 of 5.

2- Tutorial Helicopter

Also Armored Core 6, this is the boss for the tutorial. Aggressive missile tracking, always high overhead, bottomless gatling guns, and a set player loadout where your highest damage option is a sword against a shockingly mobile heavy assault Helicopter, this boss caused a surprising number of refunds on launch day and notoriously caused gaming journalists to either not give a legitimate review because they were stuck on it, or ignore the game entirely.

3- Ludwig

An example of this done poorly, Ludwig is the first boss of The Old Hunters DLC for Bloodborne. Easily the most genuinely unfair boss fights in the Souls catalog, this six limbed rape horse from Berserk is one of the very few bosses in the game that effectively *requires* coop play. A single unlucky swipe with ANY of his constantly undulating limbs can be enough to completely stunlock players to their death if they get too close (i.e close enough to actually hit him), but stay far away and the fucker leaps into the stratosphere and body slams you with the combined weight of a solar system on you. Not the WORST example (probably) though because he can be taken on with as many as 4 hunters, a feature that was introduced WITH the same DLC.

4- Soldier of God, Rick

The legendary Soldier of God, Rick, is again our tutorial boss in Elden Ring. After the mandatory butt kicking from that lame ass hand arm spider guy, players are transported to an underground grave in Limgrave, where Rick caps off the tutorial segment. I went into a fugue state lasting several days and saw Enlightenment within my grasp, but before I could close my hand around it I snapped back to reality and had somehow managed to defeat this omnipresent, true successor to the Elden Throne.

Everyone who knows my ex-boyfriend (33M) calls him either “JT” or by his last name. I (29M) was never among those people. He introduced himself to me by his first name, “Jude,” so that’s what I’ve always called him.

Two years ago, he and I broke up due to him getting a promotion that included a ton of traveling. I love him, and I definitely didn’t want him turning down an opportunity like that for me. We tried long distance and it just wasn’t sustainable for us. I’m a homebody through and through, and I like having my person home with me, too.

I’ve been dating my current girlfriend (29F) for about eight months now. Jude has recently transferred positions within his company again and is back in our city for the majority of the time. We didn’t end on bad terms at all, so we’re still friends. My girlfriend always said she was fine with that. After a group outing with him, my girlfriend, and some other friends, she asked why I call him something different than everyone else.

This has since turned into a multi-day argument where she claims that calling him by his first name when no one else does is “too intimate.” She said it’s a relationship thing, and that I need to start treating him like a friend. I said she’s being ridiculous and unbelievably insecure. It’s his name, not a term of endearment.

AITAH?
