I am comfortable with the x-men not being part of the main MCU, but rather part of the multiverse, only accessible to the Avengers universe through portal shenanigans.

Here is why:
Firstly, there would be a massive continuity issue regarding S.H.I.E.L.D and the Avengers project. Emerging mutants would have been high on their list.
Secondly it allows the Maximovs to exist as both Avengers MCU and in their place as Magnetos children in the XMCU.
This makes for interesting alternative universe drama as they can meet themselves and deal with questions about their place in the multiverse.
Thirdly, it allows the characters to be special in their universe. Two many heroes waters down the importance of our heroes on turning the fate of the universe.
...and finally, X-men has always been about the struggle of being different to the masses. It is a veiled story about LGBTIQA+ hatred and racism.

Those stories should be told through X-Men. It gets watered down when you throw in aliens and the hulk etc.

Okay, so I have had a good go at #reddeadredemtion2 online and... I have notes.
So to sum my experiences so far it is... darn close but it done missed the heart.
So, I am pull it apart from a games developer point of view. There has been a lot of great work in this title, which is why it breaks my heart that it has some easily tackled flaws at the core.

Fun fact. Hoggle from Labyrinth did alright for himself, marrying Princess Lilly from Legend.
No, it's true. Brian Henson, the voice of Hoggle, married Mia Sara.
And whilst we are doing fun facts, Mia Sara also was the first person to play a live action Harley Quinn.

Minorities need to support minorities. It is important to understand abusers, predators, stalkers and other forms of toxic people can appear in all groups.

Having a minority group expose a toxic person is painful and terrifying as we are already under siege from the outside.
I think a lot of us stay silent, thinking outing the person will cause the group more harm than good. This allows abusers to thrive in the small, vulnerable communities.

These people need to be removed from positions of power and their victims protected.
The abusers need to be removed from positions of influence and power, they need to be allowed to seek psychological help. They are STILL part of the minority, however they are toxic to the groups, however their victims, future victims and the community are priority one.

I absolutely want everyone writing manuals and documentation to punch themselves in the head if they define a feature by just reordering the words.

To quote the @unity@ documentation, for example:
It describes "Material.Renderqueue" as...

"The Render Queue of the Material".
Maya was the absolute worst for this. The manual basically did this for everything.

PUNCH. HEAD. OWN. NOW.
Amazingly, the documentation goes on to elaborate on the Render queue and say absolutely nothing. Ready for this?

#Gamedevtips graph based shader development tips:

A thread...
Its easy to make complex node graphs for shaders these days, and debugging can be a headache, especially if compile times are slow.

Make a "workbench" material and shader and just copy the bit that is killing your soul slowly in.
Once you get it right, copy/paste it back in.
"Static Switches" let you make variants to your shaders. But we warned... I have seen a few "tutorials" suggesting making a master shader with a bajilliom switches.

Let me explain binary to you.

1 switch = 2 shaders compiled ans stored.
2 switches = 4 shaders.
3 = 8
4 = 16
