Good call displaying drugs and guns in the same picture for a meme.

Talking about weed fool. Federally still illegal to possess weed and firearms

Some states apparently it is a crime to be a "drug user" and enjoy 2a

It is in all states, it's just that most of the time the feds don't find out

it's just that most of the time the feds don't find out

sounds like a tool to be used against certain undesirables on as needed basis

Looks like it's all stems

I'm probably overthinking this, but Resident Evil has Japanese devs and I heard Japan has a culture of not wanting to carry around more than you need. I wonder if the small inventory space in Resident Evil games is related to the cultural idea of packing light.

I've never heard of this before, but that's a pretty neat idea.

[–] Dasus@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

I'm like 90% sure Japanese must have a word for "the spirit of packing lightly, only taking what is essential in function OR beauty which you can not go without" or something like that.

[–] nesc@lemmy.cafe 8 points 1 month ago

It has more to do with characters not being professional horror survivors at the start of the series and just going on routine missing person in the woods call, that later just became part of the games. Also there is no explanation in any game why don't they wear something a bit more protective later on.

[–] RightHandOfIkaros@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

The small inventory space is likely a technical limitation and/or a direct gameplay decision, rather than a cultural one.

I don't believe that any person, Japanese or not, would think that a special forces rescue team would take only the minimal supplies (with big risk of not having enough), and then being stranded at a new location and purposefully not stocking up on resources when the situation becomes obvious.
