Domo arigato Mr. Roboto!

you know what that's actually about right?

The official music video of it, from the broadway-like show that goes with the album.

Its about a world where Rock & Roll is a crime, aspiring rockstars are in prison being reformed into normal citizens, and the use of emotionless Mr. Roboto units maintain order in the world as they reform anyone who tries to rock.
Yes I remember, part of the reason I brought it up.

Isn't ridicule a way for society to reform people? To make them more congruent with the whole?

Actually its been about 163 days past this year of 366days which is about 44.54% of the year so we have more than half left.
I think Rommel LOST the genetic lottery this time around.
At squaddie rank he has:
5 HP
14 Mobility
60 Aim
49 Will
0 Armor
4 Dodge
11 Hack.
Lemme compile some numbers for comparison.

Okay so there are currently 11 squadies
in my roster, I will display the stats for 8 of them in this format: Rommel/Ricci/Ray/Ozols/Rice/Lebedeva/Brezina/Patil
HP:5/8/5/6/8/6/6/7
Mobility:14/14/13/14/12/11/13/11/13
Aim:60/60/66/60/63/76/66/64/68
Will:49/53/45/61/32/0*/55/49/55
Dodge:4/5/0/8/5/5/10/5/3
All have zero armor.
*Lebedeva is currently shaken and this has taken a severe will penalty.

So his mobility is top notch, he has abysmally poor HP, just barely subpar aim and barely "average" will, with even more narrowly mediocre dodge.

I told you not to clone war heroes, now this one has bad stats and what you're going to do with a vat full of Rommel clones anyway?
I'm not worried yet. Not created equal always makes a few lemons but hidden potential makes them worthwhile. He may yet turn into the shotgun-toting hero we need.
We'll see where he is at Lieutenant.

So. Apparently Rommel is immune to viper poison or something, like, half the squad got hit with some and Rommel just came out of the toxic cloud no worse for wear while the rest of the squad steadily degrades. Must be a Medic thing.
Also, WE GOT HIM.

Was he equipped with a medkit? They grant immunity to certain things like poison.

Okay, definitely 'cause of the medkits.

The music is always a variation of a theme- the actual League of Legends themesong.

My favorite version so far was Snowdown in I think it was 2013 or 2014, paired with the login screen for Snowstorm Sivir. Who is probably really cold in that outfit because of all exposed skin.

League was fun for a time, but people take it WAY TOO SERIOUSLY.

I am casual gamer. I don't care if we win, I just want to have fun trying. And for most MOBA players, that ismply isn't good enough. Not nearly good enough. In fact if your game isn't 120% on point flawless pro plays, you should uninstall League and kill yourself  - according to people I've had to play it with.

Meanwhile for the longest time I was Raka main- which many people viewed as a troll pick purely because of her lack of combat ability. She's a support, she heals people so you don't die. Well again, that doesn't fit people's pro-play style. So I'm automatically either a smurf or a troll because I would tend to pick Raka or Sona for support that they don't need or want.  Eventually I did start to pick more offensive types like Morgana, Syndra, and Lux. But by then I was so burned out of the toxicity of League's community and the inability of Riot to properly contain it that I never play more than 2 matches in a single afternoon. It just plain isn't fun anymore even if I have a team full of friends, because someone inevitably gets frustrated and goes full tryhard. And then gets salty with the rest of the team when their inability to psychically know what is going on at all times causes such tryharding to end in disaster.
The only issue anyone should have there is if you're taking supports mid, top, or jung.

I'm in it to... Well, not win, but play well.
I sense a Rek'Sai main...
I've just realized my bed is more of a nest of pillows and blankets.

Is 5 of each enough?

MFW my grenadier goes down and I realize my medic is bugged with no ability to stabilize a soldier bleeding out.
I...I need a break from XCOM after that.

1 part blanket to 2 part pillow.

That sounds very comfy. and yes that is probably enough, but remember: there's no such thing as too many pillows.
But if I did that to my bed it wouldn't mesh well with the slightly unnerving tidiness of the majority of my room. *sigh*
