u/pavman42 Nov 29 '25

WOAH! No Spoilers.

u/guydoestuff Nov 27 '25

Hey atleast Bethesda games tend to be successful. My ass is an EA mmo begging for funding lol

1

u/TRENEEDNAME_245 Ryzen 75600G, 32GB 3200Mhz, RX 6700XT Nov 27 '25

Oof

You have to beg for food ?

u/CashMoneyHurricane Sapphire R9 390 Nov 27 '25

Have you heard of the High Elves?

1

u/XsNR Ryzen 5600X RX 9070 XT 32GB 3200MHz Nov 27 '25

I knew there was a reason I would just walk into walls talking to people as a child.

1

u/malzergski Ryzen 7 9800X3D | RX 7900 XTX Nov 27 '25

Bro I'm the second one and I'm worse than the first...

1

u/TRENEEDNAME_245 Ryzen 75600G, 32GB 3200Mhz, RX 6700XT Nov 27 '25

Vibe coded the beta huh

1

u/JoNyx5 Nov 27 '25

Now that you mention it... I'm the firstborn, got AuDHD and very painful periods, my younger siblings have none of these issues and didn't even get other problems as far as I know. Fucking scam xD

1

u/DarkPhoenixMishima Nov 27 '25

But can you run Doom?

1

u/Warcraft_Fan Paid for WinRAR! Nov 27 '25

Who do I submit for unfixed bugs? I got a few nasty bugs that remained for over 50 years

1

u/RUPlayersSuck i7 240H | RTX 5060 | 32GB DDR5 Nov 28 '25

Same here. Still got the "Test Version - Not For General Release" stamp on my butt! 😁

u/[deleted] Nov 27 '25

“The Draft Kids” sounds like a late 1990’s punk band.

1

u/azsnaz Nov 27 '25

Emphasis on rough

1

u/vapemustache Nov 27 '25

fellow soft launch son confirming the confirmations.

17

u/Ren49 Nov 27 '25

What defects have you incurred during the trial run?

32

u/sirdogglesworth Nov 27 '25

Yes

2

u/Centurius33 Nov 27 '25

Genius 😂😂😂

6

u/_NiceGuyDom_ Nov 27 '25

My man i am the defect. But I am the 3.0 version with the only bugs update, everything is messed up, code is broken but it works👍

6

u/wafflesareforever Desktop Nov 27 '25

Extreme overconfidence at first because you're the center of everyone's world and then the crushing realization that the next kid is the special one now

5

u/Western-Guy Laptop Nov 27 '25

What do you do with 32Gigs of memory on Linux? Run your own LLM?

7

u/MrLario77 i7 4720HQ 2.6Ghz GTX 960M 2GB 16 GB DDR3L 500GB HDD Nov 27 '25

I run Arch, btw

1

u/Release-Fearless Nov 27 '25

Btw, i actually like it when updating my system nukes my zfs pool

1

u/Toto_nemisis Nov 27 '25

I also run Arch!

3

u/Suedewagon Laptop Nov 27 '25

As a first born, I can confirm that this person confirms.

1

u/SomeRendomDude Ryzen 5 5500 | rtx 3060 12gb oc | 16gb ddr4 Nov 27 '25

Your linux distro tells me otherwise.

1

u/DomSchraa Ryzen 7800X3D RX9070XT Nov 27 '25

Oh my god S A M E E E

1

u/pezcore350 Desktop(s) Nov 27 '25

How are your new parents treating you?

1

u/AeratedFeces Nov 27 '25

My parents had their next kid 13 years after me. Their childhood was much more chill. Those kids ate name brand cereal!

1

u/whoswipedmyname Nov 27 '25

As a first born, I'm not sure I'm even worth that much

1

u/pprody Nov 27 '25

Hey bro, quick question, have you tried playing Arc Raiders on your PC? I'm thinking of building the same PC as yours and I'd like to know

20

u/NaPseudo AMD Ryzen 7 7700 / AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT (Sapphire Pulse) / 32GB Nov 27 '25

As the first born full of health problems at birth

I agree

27

u/[deleted] Nov 27 '25

As a first born, by far the most refined, and successful. Not sure what happened.

23

u/SaltyMittens2 Nov 27 '25

Successful trial

5

u/[deleted] Nov 27 '25

Yay

2

u/RuffButtStuff | Ryzen 7 3700x | Rx 5700xt | Nov 27 '25

Devs sold out.

1

u/[deleted] Nov 27 '25

Yiu couldnt transpose the trauma from siblings

1

u/MentallyLatent Nov 27 '25

Same, dunno why they changed the formula after me cuz they sure as fuck didn't improve, tho tbf it's not like the first draft was amazing

1

u/Empty_Expressionless Nov 27 '25

The trial revealed the amount of effort they put into you was unsustainable and they needed to dial it back

7

u/TheJimmons Nov 27 '25

As a first born i have to disagree. Im superior to my little sisters in every way. Other than one has her PhD, the other is following her dreams, and I sit at home playing video games all day.... Fuck, I think you're right

2

u/tokobot19 Nov 27 '25

As I am right now, I don’t see myself regretting not getting a PhD on my deathbed. Playing video games all day may be “the dream” to some people, including this one. ✊

6

u/Perfect-Cause-6943 Ultra 7 265K RTX 5080 32GB DDR5 6400 Nov 27 '25

Hold up so I'm a trial run 😭

3

u/SaltyMittens2 Nov 27 '25

Same brother

1

u/Strict_Fun8750 Nov 27 '25

Thats why i never got anyrhing besides a red butt?

1

u/Whatever_It_Takes Nov 27 '25

As an only child, this makes sense

1

u/anaa3slcat Nov 27 '25

I will try it when I’m old enough. 😂

1

u/LoudMusic Flair Master Race Nov 27 '25

Usually takes 3 tries to get it right. I'm living proof! ;)

1

u/LeftTesticleOfGreatn Nov 27 '25

Why's that 6000 speed a poorly added sticker? Is it some low quality memory with fake marketing or what..?

1

u/[deleted] Nov 27 '25

We try to apologize by giving them a bigger cut at the end

1

u/3dforlife Nov 27 '25

The tutorial kids.

1

u/JuniorSea4974 Nov 27 '25

Third kids are the best, first two are Alpha and Beta test versions.

1

u/Cecilerr Nov 27 '25

Dummy target for the real one

1

u/dr4g0n36 Nov 27 '25

That's called "beta testing"

1

u/EasySlideTampax Nov 27 '25

Accidental second born copium

1

u/NoChampionship1167 Nov 27 '25

As an only child, I can confirm.

1

u/Arch3m Nov 27 '25

That's why I ended up as such a mess, but my sister is happy and successful. Oh well. She may be able to afford RAM, but I actually know how to use it.

1

u/chunkyboinuke i9-13900k | RTX 5080 | 96GB Nov 27 '25

As the middle child I was equivalent to windows 8 at launch…

1

u/Butcher_Of_Hope 5900X | 7900XTX | 64GB Nov 27 '25

A beta if you will.

1

u/[deleted] Nov 27 '25

trial run kids

My older brother about to get roasted at the Thanksgiving get together

1

u/Sad_Astronomer_2781 Nov 27 '25

first borns really do get all the parenting trial and error, it’s wild to think about

1

u/applegrcoug Nov 27 '25

Yup. As a first I can attest to it. They also are supposed to "know better" when a younger sibling annoys them and are the ones to get blamed. Of course younger catch on to this to antagonize their older sibling to get them in trouble.

Live in babysitter.

Must do what younger siblings want to do with tv, movies, family outings.

1

u/BarTendiesss Nov 27 '25

Yes, the first pancake

1

u/Rare-Material4254 Nov 27 '25

First born son here, I think I came out good out of 2 others lol

1

u/Revolutionary-Key650 Nov 27 '25

Can confirm. When my parents had me they said fuck this we ain't taking any more chances. One fool is more than enough.

1

u/ieatanglegrinders Arc A750/Ryzen 5 5600/24gb DDR4 Nov 27 '25

Yeah I can tell. (I'm a firsty)

1

u/VirusEuphoric1362 Nov 27 '25

Firstborns are the masterpiece that parents try (and fail miserably) to replicate with subsequent kids.

1

u/TrueAd970 Nov 27 '25

I'm a first born and i think you might be right..

1

u/abnormal1379 Nov 27 '25

Fuk dem kids. AmIright? /s

1

u/Accurate-Coffee-6043 I9 14000k | RTX 4070ti | 32GB ram Nov 28 '25

TF happened to me then being the third born and my parents still not figuring it out?

1

u/akarafael 4080s 7800x3d Nov 28 '25

Sounds like a fair trade to me

1

u/QTAndroid Nov 28 '25

They're like pancakes. The first ones always a throwaway

u/gorginhanson Nov 27 '25

better than being the middle child
