So I don't need to

[sleek cloud]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQ6zr6kCPj8

[dusty fable]

I love this Stray game fr

The story seems intriguing

[shadow tartan]

It's a game about a mass murderer

[dusty fable]

||I just saved Doc from the headcrabs||

[dusty fable]

You can tell from the dome itself

[shadow tartan]

Cats are murderers

[thorn dawn]

Just doesn't seem worth it. I don't need more games I won't play.

[shadow tartan]

You played Diablo Immortal yet

[thorn dawn]

Nah

Not my sort of game

[cerulean kite]

weird, thought u were a billionaire

[frozen carbon]

[idle saffron]

Steam and ps

[thorn dawn]

[pearl bough]

Tho when I told the house to play music it turned on the tv instead lmao

I had to fix that

I don't want Como-TT

[pearl bough]

I'm still gonna make coffee in a minute.

[thorn dawn]

Thanks, black and strong, no sugar

[pearl bough]

I make myself a double expresso latte or mocha in the nespresso machine. You wanna talk to my mother about her kureg lol

Datweekaz is still good early in the morning tho. Esp. In a over 55 community lol

I want the new Sub Zero Project CD tho for my car. It can go right next to Contagion.

[shadow tartan]

I'm so close to what you need bb

[cerulean kite]

[pearl bough]

I keep a giant 64 ounce pump bottle of dark mocha dairy free for my expresso

And a variety of syrups from caramel to classic vanilla and beyond

[willow crypt]

https://tenor.com/view/sugar-sugar-and-more-sugar-sweets-cup-of-sugar-white-sugar-food52-gif-15140785

too bad

[pearl bough]

Still keep mine under 100 calories.

Not like a 60g sugar starbucks latte.

[thorn dawn]

Careful with all that sugar, you wouldn't want to trigger @shadow tartan's genetic predisposition to diabetes now

[shadow tartan]

Thanks for reminding me

Twat

You're all better now, you've missed soke abuse

[thorn dawn]

I've still got a cough

[pearl bough]

Feel better.

Drink veggie broth and herbal tea. Not coffee

[shadow tartan]

Coffee fixes the pain of life for brief moments though

[shadow tartan]

Something in your throat?

[left light]

Nope that is a full size ATX board, but with the angle I shot at you can't see below b/c I thought the top of the card looked so cool with the GPU core cut out I wanted to get it in the shot.

[pearl bough]

Ribbit

[thorn dawn]

Just coffee

[pearl bough]

Debating if I go back to Lost Ark. I need to reach level 50 for the summer event.

[thorn dawn]

That's the point of the story.

[visual scarab]

Started playing Valkyria Chronicles 4 today, the game is surprisingly good lol

[austere lance]

https://hytale.com/news/2022/7/summer-2022-development-update

the redevelopment of the engine is proceeding quickly and we're hitting our internal milestones. However, the game will not be ready to launch in 2023, which was the earliest possible launch window we outlined last year

[dry copper]

Should've replaced it with "SHAAAAAAAAAUN!!"

[shadow tartan]

You could make this mod and the server will love you

Community will love you

[dry copper]

Call it "Press Meow to Shaun"

Have you ever wanted glasses for your cat? How about a newsboy cap? NOW IT CAN BE REAL!

Meow, motherfucker.

[shadow tartan]

I'm gonna play it but only when the cat is with me

[winter yew]

so adorable

[cerulean kite]

espresso, also... what kind of monster flavors espresso 😂

[pearl bough]

Double expresso, 2 pumps either mocha or caramel, and frothed steamed nut milk or soy milk, is an amazing combination

I dislike the taste of coffee by itself.

But it transforms nicely.

[cerulean kite]

well thats a different type of beverage

a macchiato or something

[pearl bough]

Yea I only drink lattes and mochas

Otherwise I'm a heavy water and tea drinker.

[cerulean kite]

dont drink heavy water

[pearl bough]

Lol

[cerulean kite]

drink non-metallic water

err uhh deuterium or whatever

wait is that what deuterium is? weird

[pearl bough]

Well it's only bottled water right now because of the crisis with resevoirs and stuff. We have to cook entirely with jugs of poland springs. Have for over a year.

[cerulean kite]

iseeisee

[pearl bough]

Apparently from plastics and run off.

[cerulean kite]

yeah plastics be in everything

thanks polyester fabrics and a million other things

[pearl bough]

Not sure how many places in the world have unsuitable water now. But many of our towns in MA here told us not to even use the fridge filter.

Ironically now we increased plastic with water for cooking and drinking.

[cerulean kite]

weve done an awful job with ecological management it seems

[pearl bough]

My father worked in the water and dental manufacturing industry for years so I've learned a lot from him

About water systems.

[cerulean kite]

municipal water filtration mmmmm

[pearl bough]

It's not just the US either.

[cerulean kite]

im sure

plastics all over mount everest and in those razor sharp canyons humans cant go in

its everythweere

[pearl bough]

Yea

[cerulean kite]

they did say it was a miracle material

[pearl bough]

People trashed the base of Everest. The locals were hurt.

[cerulean kite]

the wonders of plastics!

[pearl bough]

I mean dying jeans in rivers in China also.

[cerulean kite]

well most of everest plastic is from abandoned gear and bodies but yeah

[pearl bough]

It's complicated.

Oh true.

But trash at the base. Not as prominent.

[cerulean kite]

i see some crazy images of the ganges, ppl like doing religious ceremonies in the water, except theres like a 3 foot layer of foam on the water from industrial waste

[pearl bough]

Oof

[cerulean kite]

one such example https://www.reddit.com/r/interestingasfuck/comments/txj3w8/people_offering_prayers_at_the_yamuna_river_india/

[pearl bough]

Think my relatives in CT have the same issue. They drive to a spot where you put quarters in to fill jugs of water. Like a laundry mat but for safe water.

[cerulean kite]

interesting

[pearl bough]

I helped them once a year ago.

[cerulean kite]

i wonder if philadelphia water is bad

probably

[pearl bough]

I'm like 30 minutes left on today's twitch. I always seem to miss a few for NMS. Trying not to this week

[frigid yarrow]

So since my PC forced me to take a vacation from NMS i started building stuff in far cry 5

This is a concept i wanted to make in NMS

[sleek cloud]

meh, wasn't a fan of FC5. I did complete FC6 recently which was much better imo

[frigid yarrow]

FC6 Had no editor

[tame cairn]

anybody own a series X?

i want opinions on it please

[idle saffron]

Love it

Smooth

So quick too

[tame cairn]

so say you own the original xbox one

worth the $500?

im debating

i was thinking ps5 but i dont want to lose everything i own lol

[pearl bough]

I've never played a farcry before. Didn't look like my thing.

[pearl bough]

Depends. I own a origonal xbox one and did not have the red rings of death. I used to keep up with systems because if exclusive titles. But most titles eventually come out on pc now. Like even sunset overdrive I already had on xbox is now on steam

Certain games don't work anymore on pc for me like Assassins Creed Black Flag. I had to buy it for xbox one and atarted over.

The origonal were like 300. You do get some fps hits and latency. I bet the series X would clear up NMS and Outriders. But I just play those on PC now.

On an origonal Outriders was laggy in spots. And graphics are better on pc. Same with NMS.

I pull mine out these days mainly to revisit Fable origins, 2 & 3.

And for Black Flag.

Also I like the forza series on it.

[dusty fable]

What kind of games do you like?

[pearl bough]

Rpg's esp. But strategy and stuff. I'm super picky about shooters weirdly enough.

Like mass effect is great.

I still play the sims ocassionally. Animal crossing, grew up with pokemon

And I played harvest moon for years. So now I'm a stardew valley addict.

And I juggle too many MMORPG's. I got a small community in ffxiv, another in eso & new world.

And I casually play city of heroes again and ffxi eden as that was my first mmo ever back on ps2

When my sister was in college we went through that guitar hero phase also when it came out lol

Also I'm not great at handling horror.

But RTS like starcraft or command & conquer I grew up with

I'm all over the place. Still dabble in need for speed and forza

And I miss banjo kazooie sometimes.

JRPG's are my favorite from final fantasy 3 on snes and 7 8 9 on ps1 to breath of fire and 7th saga. Earthbound. Ect.

And Como-TT is my least favorite

[tame cairn]

lol

when theres too many games

[austere lance]

Series X is damn near on a separate planet from the old Xbone, lol. It's 2x more powerful than the One X, so the OG Xbone is basically an SNES in comparison 🤣

[tame cairn]

LOL

damn

[austere lance]

I went from the One S to Series X and 😫 💦 💦

[pearl bough]

Lol

[tame cairn]

ok i will purchase it

[coarse swift]

Series X also has a significantly louder controller

[tame cairn]

soon

[coarse swift]

Can hear those button presses a mile away

[tame cairn]

really?

[coarse swift]

Yes

[pearl bough]

I mean I don't need to upgrade to the X for 360 games and stuff. Anything newer I want I just get on PC.

[tame cairn]

like wired controller level?

[coarse swift]

Not sure what wired controller has to do with it

[tame cairn]

the xbox wired controllers are loud

asf

[coarse swift]

Oh, wouldn't know

[pearl bough]

Have they always been?

I got batteries for One. I use a 360 controller for pc.

[austere lance]

Eh, not too bad imo. I didn't notice any difference between the it and my old One controller for like a year til spirit told me it's a bit louder 😆

[coarse swift]

I don't remember 360 controllers being loud tbh

Never had an Xbox one

[pearl bough]

My One is wireless.

[tame cairn]

360 controller

i saw you can get the old buttons on the new controller

lol

[coarse swift]

Also forgot that Xbox controllers take batteries still
Made sure to get a rechargeable pack. I'm not dealing with that

[pearl bough]

I prefer the 360 response time on PC

[tame cairn]

im so sad smh

i thought they def wouldve got rid of it

ordered a 60 pack 👍🏻

lmao

[pearl bough]

A lot of our stuff in this house is still on batteries.

[coarse swift]

All the more reason to get a single rechargeable pack. You can leave it in there and treat it like any other wireless controller since the controller plug in charges it

[tame cairn]

true

it was only $20

but yea

[austere lance]

We got a two pack of rechargeable battery packs for $15 forever ago, definitely worth it

We always have one in controller and the other on charger

[tame cairn]

when i get this new one i will

i would like pc but thats too expensive rn

also console is simpler

[coarse swift]

$400 gets you a nice next gen console
$400 gets you a piece of a next gen pc

[tame cairn]

yeah..

and still has its problems sometimes

[pearl bough]

I have a hard time convincing dad of anything lol. He gets stubborn. Still buys large packs of batteries at BJ's

[pearl bough]

I think $400 didn't get me much of anything on my pc lmao. But I got a custom build at Microcenter because of the gpu shortage. I probably got the PSU and Ram for $400.

[fathom roost]

Anyone else see Nope yet?

[thorn dawn]

Which skyrim mod is that

[austere lance]

🤣

[pearl bough]

Halo today?

[austere lance]

https://youtu.be/IiMinixSXII

[pearl bough]

Yea a friend told me about the trailer yesterday

[austere lance]

Chris Pine as a bard will be great 😆

[pearl bough]

If there has to be a Chris he is the better one. I can't stand Chris Pratt.

And I'm a star trek fan anyways.

Tho I got into Star Trek as an adult when I was already a Star Wars fan since childhood

I've been overwhelmed by twitch drops for a month now. NMS just started this week, already cleared New World and ESO at least. I missed Warframe drops. And Albion online requires 24 hours of streaming a week and we are on week of chests.

Plus Lost Ark had drops

[primal loom]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9Z439YYyD0

Tony Williams had such an amazing voice

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDlcqhlzDqQ

[crimson garnet]

but yeah, judging how the recent releases have been going... i dont have high Expectations for Starfield

at all :V

Skyrim (and FO3)'s main story is kind of awful, FO4's is worse, and 76 doesnt really have much to it, even if it is a spinoff 👀

Skyrim's strength 100% is the setting and sidequests, which FO4 lost the latter part... and 76 for sure

[dusty fable]

Skyrim's DLCs are better than its main story

Same with FO3 and FO4's DLCs

[crimson garnet]

yeah, though it's kind of bad to repeatedly botch the main plot over and over :V

especially since the further into the future, the worse the quests overall tend to get

Far Harbor is probably the peak of FO4 👀

actually, almost certainly

[dusty fable]

It's like making a show or series where the first season is usually awful and later seasons are become a masterpiece

[dusty fable]

Agree, Far Harbor is the best DLC in FO4

[crimson garnet]

still pretty bad since

[dusty fable]

I like the fact that it has a lot of different endings

[crimson garnet]

the first season is almost mandatory to hook people in :V

and you WILL lose hordes of people through the

"suffer through the shit to get to the half-decent parts"

[dusty fable]

I skipped Breaking Bad for years because the first season was pretty mediocre, until Season 2 where they pulled me back into it but decided to skip it again for months because I hate Skyler

[crimson garnet]

but yeah, arguably the best case if you have to have a shitty segment

in the middle 👀

weak start is practically suicidal, and weak ending is possibly worse

[dusty fable]

Couldn't agree more

[crimson garnet]

problem is with Bethesda, the start is almost always terrible :V

[dusty fable]

Bethesda needs to hire a different writer

[coarse swift]

https://tenor.com/view/skyrim-margin-awake-marginskyrim-gif-20155428

I see no issue yet with Bethesda's writing, but thats just me

[crimson garnet]

start in prison, slog through a fairly mediocre story, then get to the good part if you can find it before you get bored and quit/refund it 👀

ehh, it's kind of boring

like

Starbound's plot boring

[coarse swift]

To each their own tbh

[crimson garnet]

"you're the chosen one kill the dragon that'll end the world"

also said dragon is about as interesting as

soggy cardboard

[coarse swift]

Starbound's plot is definitely a bore

[crimson garnet]

for sure 👀

[coarse swift]

And that is your opinion

[crimson garnet]

though, starbound also has the issue of "there's literally not a single character that stands out aside from "old lady" and "bad guy" who has like 1-2 books of development" :V

[coarse swift]

Tbh I wish Skyrim had some FO4 levels of game start.

[crimson garnet]

oh, and vaguely "god"

who shows up to just un-kill the chosen one

honestly, FO4 does have a much better intro 👀

[dusty fable]

Bethesda's writing is like a journey of an amateur writer who then became a professional writer. But it won't stay that way because the writer having writer's block over and over again

[crimson garnet]

but does kinda drop it afterward

"find your son" becoming the entire plot :V

rather than just a hook to get into an actual meaty plot

[coarse swift]

I mean

FO3 was "find your dad"

[crimson garnet]

yeah

FO3 isnt known for it's good storytelling 👀

neat sidequests though

[coarse swift]

Idk what New Vegas was tbh, never played it
Probably "find the guy who shot you"

[dusty fable]

That's why TES storyline is far more superior compared to FO

[crimson garnet]

it STARTS that way, actually

then turns into generally "who should control the wastelands/win Hoover dam"

and "who do you help or screw"

there's the Legion which mow down anyone and has a very short shelf life, but makes sure it's citizens are safe as long as it stands

[coarse swift]

The amount of praise I hear with New Vegas honestly turned me off from playing it
I worry that I'll feel its overrated when I do

[crimson garnet]

the NCR which is more or less "Little America, but more likely to be robbed 24/7 in borders"

then Brotherhood are kinda just "ya'll stupid", i believe :V

House is more "The Long Term™️"

get to space, stop the nuclear apocalypse from ever happening again to this extent

make sure humanity Lives

[austere lance]

It's ass, I fell for that trap years ago and quit playing within three hours

[coarse swift]

House sounds reasonable already

[crimson garnet]

honestly, yeah if i had to pick any faction, it'd be House 👀

since he's not likely to die anytime in the next few centuries, or go mad

which means no goal derailing

[dusty fable]

FNV had a good storyline but holy fuck I couldn't stand its graphic and its buggy mess

[crimson garnet]

there's also "fuck everyone, become a king"

[austere lance]

The last Fallout I liked was 3 😆

[crimson garnet]

yeeeah, that's the drawback of having at most a year to develop a game in an engine you dont know :V

[coarse swift]

Fallout 4 was a great time, but also the only one I committed to

Settlement building was a huge sell for me, despite Preston Garvey

[austere lance]

I can't stand NV and 4 made me take a nap after getting to the first city

[crimson garnet]

especially since Bethesda proceeded to screw them on release

[coarse swift]

Really hoping ES6 has some sorta settlement/town building function too

God I'd love that

[dusty fable]

NV with Skyrim engine would be cool but they decided using shitty ass engine from Oblivion

[crimson garnet]

they decided
You mean Obsidian or Bethesda?

also, Shitty ass engine from Fallout 3*

[austere lance]

I'm so tired of Skyrim being the last proper ES, we've gotten like three dry-ass Fallout games since it released 😭

[shadow tartan]

Blades

[austere lance]

God I'm ready for ES VI

[coarse swift]

Fallout 76 🚮

[crimson garnet]

Elder Scrolls Blades and Online, take it or leave it :V

[austere lance]

I'd rather die

[dusty fable]

Both, but I mostly blames Bethesda for it

[crimson garnet]

but yeah, you DO realize that Obsidian literally didnt have a choice for engine, if they did it'd be Isometric instead 👀

[coarse swift]

ESO can kiss my ass
Tbh, I would play it, but I'm not interested in buying the DLC twice just to play it with my wife for every DLC. Fuck off Zenimax

[crimson garnet]

if they wanted to make NV at all, it HAS to be Creation Engine from FO3

[austere lance]

Outer Worlds was more fun than NV, but I always get hate when I say that

[crimson garnet]

consider instead:

Outer Wilds 👌

that's a s p i c y game 👀

[coarse swift]

Different game entirely.

[austere lance]

[crimson garnet]

yeah

[coarse swift]

Outer Wilds is a puzzle
Outer Worlds is rpg

[dusty fable]

I fucking hate Outer Worlds ugh I wish Avellone was still working for Obsidian

[coarse swift]

I need to play Outer Worlds again, I was enjoying it

[crimson garnet]

especially Outer Wilds with the EotE DLC 👌

[austere lance]

Outer Worlds>every Fallout after 3

[crimson garnet]

wouldnt count NV on that, since the story is pretty damn spicy, but the rest yeah, including 3 👀

[coarse swift]

I mean its not the best choice...

||its Spacers Choice ||

[dusty fable]

I'd rather play NMS than Outer Worlds

[coarse swift]

Outer Worlds gets undeserved hate tbh

[crimson garnet]

honestly, from what i'd seen, Outer Worlds is kind of more

mediocre than bad

[coarse swift]

Hardly

[crimson garnet]

which, might be worse, but it'd be playable 👌

[austere lance]

NV is the most boring game I've ever played 💀
I tried playing it 3 times with a couple years between each attempt and damn near fell asleep within a couple hours each time

[coarse swift]

It's no Prey, but its still pretty good

[austere lance]

Outer Worlds is at least fun

[crimson garnet]

oh yeah, that'd probably be the "Fallout 3 Engine" part, to a degree

[austere lance]

Yes

[crimson garnet]

the melted barbie doll one 👀

[austere lance]

I put hundreds of hours into Fallout 3 😆

[crimson garnet]

oh god, you poor bastard

[austere lance]

Easily my favorite Fallout, every one since is a snoozefest

[coarse swift]

Pssh

[dusty fable]

Outer Worlds' story is not memorable, too short, doesn't have a lot of guns, no long hair women, many planets are locked without reason, etc. But there's a single thing I love from this game...

Its companion system

[crimson garnet]

i did too but that was mostly on PS3 when

that was about the only game i had :V

[dusty fable]

I wish NMS had companion system like Outer Worlds

[crimson garnet]

Squadron :V

[coarse swift]

Squadron is a poor mans companion system ngl

[austere lance]

I spent like a year more or less only playing Fallout 3, Red Dead Redemption, Dishonored, Halo Reach, and Halo 4 😆

[crimson garnet]

yeah, same but cut out everything else 👀

ngl a VERY fun "companion system" though in Outer Wilds...

Quantum Space Buddies mod 👌

[dusty fable]

Bruh they just fly, we can't approach them on foot

[austere lance]

God I'd kill for a Red Dead Redemption remaster 😫

[dusty fable]

Same

[crimson garnet]

i mean, technically you do

[austere lance]

Especially after RDR2 bored the shit out of me 💀

[crimson garnet]

honestly, if i were to ask for a game remaster

odds are it'd either be:

Freelancer(2003)

or

Pirates of the Caribbean Online, even

[dusty fable]

Manhunt remaster when?

[crimson garnet]

maybe even the latter with more Black Flag-y ship combat aspects 👀

[austere lance]

Just play Skull & Bones

I'm sorry, I couldn't resist 🤣

[crimson garnet]

ngl, i have a sneaking suspicion Skull and Bones is just gonna be

another pvp hellscape like Sea of Thieves 👀

[austere lance]

Did you see that last gameplay trailer? Good lord it was painful

[dusty fable]

Never heard of that game

[crimson garnet]

Ubisoft's version of Sea of Thieves

or "Black Flag with more ship focus" but warped/botched :V

and i kinda really dig Black Flag, ngl 👀

best AC game

[austere lance]

https://youtu.be/fgy4WZ9ta7E

[dusty fable]

Just checked it on YT, there's so many bad review lol

[austere lance]

Delayed for years only for it to become a worse AC Black Flag

[crimson garnet]

pretty much :V

"boy this makes me want to play Black Flag instead"

[austere lance]

You can't even leave your ship or do sword combat, it's like you're permanently controlling a GTA vehicle 🤣

[crimson garnet]

Honestly, POTCO and Black Flag are probably some of the better pirate games so far 👀

could even just mix them with Sea of Thieves, give it a good singleplayer campaign

[dusty fable]

Most AAA companies nowadays are worse than Bethesda smh. EA, Ubisoft, CDPR, Take Two, etc....

[crimson garnet]

Effective ship solo, even better with friends, etc

lots of things to do, skills to grind for better combat, etc 👀

maybe even

multiplayer storyline?

would be 👌

[austere lance]

Sid Meier's Pirates! will forever hold a special place in my heart 💕

[crimson garnet]

hell, POTCO probably did the PvP the best out of them 👀

since

you had to go to one of two islands and sign up for Privateering :V

which means fighting other people on ships

[austere lance]

Black Flag has that weird spin-off AC Rogue that got a remaster but it itself didn't, lol

[crimson garnet]

the Templar Black Flag?

[austere lance]

Yeah

[crimson garnet]

kinda bizzare ngl

[austere lance]

Added like, a couple more ship equipment/weapons and a new map

[crimson garnet]

but yeah, i know in POTCO, i believe War Sloops were basically one of the more preferred ships 👀

[austere lance]

And let you assassinate Assassins

[crimson garnet]

since speedy smol fuck

though you could still clap with like

War Frigates

(ships range in 3 types and tiers, Sloop, Galleon, Frigate, or Speed, Cargo, Combat, and "Light", "Standard", and "War")

though pretty sure the War variants get like

different versions

like "shoot lightning/ghost cannonballs instead of regular"

or flaming balls?

and such

kind of honestly wild for being

a Disney MMO

||of course on the official servers before they shut down, you had to pay for anything past Light ships, or most weapons||

private servers though? All free 👌

[short badge]

Waiting for the update so I’m starting forza5

[dusty fable]

I wonder when will Forza touch Asia and Africa as their next setting

[tame cairn]

some of people favorite

never played it

only one i havent played lol

need to

[dry copper]

Welcome to Grand Theft Boato

Minus the theft

Just Grand Boato

Grand Sink Boato?

[elder oasis]

@fast goblet main thing that has me wanting to give SC a try is being able to float around outside your ship and sneak onto another one and the random shenanigans

[fast goblet]

that is a fun thing to do

but from what i've seen when u enter ur ship or any ship from space u either take damage and die for whatever reason or ur gun falls through the floor XD

not to mention the elevators

oh the elevators

aside from the infestation of bugs tho it does look like a good game

[elder oasis]

Mainly just wishing there was a game that had NMS' exploration, elite's mining, and SC's cities and the sheer size of the ships

[fast goblet]

ur looking for the perfect game, and unfortunately, there is no such thing as a perfect game

at least rn

[elder oasis]

Probably not til we're old, maybe once we have the ability to make fulldive vr games it would be possible

[crimson garnet]

oh yeah, and Freelancer's combat 👀

for sure

[elder oasis]

I've not seen anything about freelancer, I'll have to look it up in a bit

[loud slate]

There's like Elite Dangerous but that's grindy as hell and negatively games-as-a-service

Like, to keep up I swear you need to make it a part time job

Oh you said Elite's mining

Apparently I cannot read

You already mentioned that game

I played elite dangerous odyssey.

So many god damn bugs

Crashed repeatedly. Mission objectives not spawning. NPC glitching into each other. Feature creep that made advancement less fun. I played ED for Odyssey and I was very disappointed.

The entire Odyssey expansion felt like a tacked on experience that from what the news on it suggests: Was repeatedly downsized

[pearl bough]

I made a good dent in Stardew today while I had my butteeacoth latte. 99/100 golden walnuts, finished the digsite, finished the grow ship 100 taro for Caroline quest, and in progress towards the frog statue. Also built the resort and caught my first stingray

[dry copper]

I did get to send some glorious bug reports though. So, hopefully they do address these issues in the future.

Grow ship?

[primal loom]

You experience aligns with my own, sad that Odyssey turned out in the state it did 😢

They don't have much planned in the way of patches for the next year, just a few minor things

[dry copper]

Odyssey to play feels like it could be something, but I gave it a long time to bake before trying it and I'm not interested in playing the base game as-is. I wanted Odyssey. Sadly, Odyssey will not likely happen any time soon.

So I left my review reflecting my disappointment and thanked the community that made me feel less alone in an otherwise dead universe.

I love this...hilarious slip up

In Grow, should I be extracting all the essence from everything ?

I'm worried I'll be destroying resources I need for other things.

[austere lance]

@fleet moat You excited for the big summer update for GTAO?

Oppressors are getting nerfed and our holy Sparrows will get access to flares and chaff 😫

And everything will pay more

[fleet moat]

nooooooooo re: oppressors getting nerfed against NPCs? @idle saffron listen to this

[fleet moat]

that's cooool

i haven't been catching up on latest updates

[idle saffron]

[austere lance]

They're nerfing them completely cuz pvp trolls abused them so much. They carry less flares, their missile lock on is weaker, and the time between flare/chaff use has been extended so you can't spam them

[fleet moat]

mannn, super lame on missile lock being weaker. i wish / hope that'd only affect pvp. not pve or against npcs.

I saw they're finally going to let players do business sales in private lobbies

Only took 6 years lol

[austere lance]

Yep

Massive list of changes

[dry copper]

I quit the game over the requirement to play in open lobbies to do business

[fleet moat]

nice! ty

[dry copper]

Too many hackers in GTAO

[austere lance]

Every single major job type is getting payout increases and the option to do them in private lobbies

Plus new ways to make money from them. Nightclubs, biker clubs, executives, etc are all getting new ways to make $$$

[dry copper]

I think that Grow needs an update that lets you auto select the tool you need for each task rather than scroll to it...There are so many different tasks

This is a pointless chore

[austere lance]

And there's a new GTAO campaign getting added that's about gas thieves 😆

Here's the patch notes

I named my dude Conner.

[austere lance]

Players will be able to purchase max ammo for all weapons at once in the Interaction Menu. Players will also have easier access to snacks and armor through a single input while the Weapon Wheel is up

i named my dude Maximus Dude

omg the bike shop update sounds so cool!

what whaaa? for realz? is that out now? or coming?

[austere lance]

That'll be part of the update

[austere lance]

On the 26th

If only GTAO had crossplay, I'd reinstall to play together for the summer update 🥲

that's super s n

I posted the patch notes too, not just the update description 😌

[fleet moat]

omg right?

[primal loom]

One of my fav memories from GTAO was getting some friends together and biking up Mount Chiliad

Then yeeting ourselves off the top 😅

[dry copper]

What are essences for in this game? I keep getting them and never use them

[austere lance]

I'm terrible and treat the game like a Battlefield game, lobbies ain't fun unless they're a 30 person warzone

[primal loom]

You combine them to make world seeds, it's how you create new gardens

[dry copper]

Then you have 4 of them hacking so they never die and you keep getting turned into a prostitute wearing a construction worker as a hat

[tame cairn]

ok cool

[dry copper]

I hated GTAO hackers

[tame cairn]

but gta6?

[austere lance]

They're working on it, lol

[tame cairn]

gta5 is worn out

[fleet moat]

yoooo! the avenger upgrade allowing for most vehicles is awesome! @austere lance

oooh and added filters for shopping sites. nice

[austere lance]

I still think it's funny that Rockstar goes nuts if they spot modded shit in the console versions and ban accounts if they so much as think you cheated but they're blind and deaf when it comes to pc 😆

fuck griefers

[austere lance]

😌

[dry copper]

Don't fuck griefers. They like that.

Tell them to go fly a kite

or one of those flying bikes that are getting nerfed

[austere lance]

Oppressors are still the worst thing Rockstar has put in the game

[primal loom]

I totally forgot about that game, I see it has left early access 👀

Can't wait for the Pegasus Mk.II in Red Dead Online 🐴

[austere lance]

That implies Rockstar gives a shit about RDO, lol

[dry copper]

I'd chosen the bakery

[primal loom]

Bread!

[dry copper]

Some day there will be a good cowboy survival game

One almost happened but the developers lost their license to the game when they sold out to a foreign investor that decided it wasn't profitable

[dull tulip]

Trying to force Kathleen to bake you cookies, so rude

[dry copper]

Outlaws of the old west if I recall was the name of it

It's a dead game so...

If you don't mind the bugs, the current state of it is pretty much as good as its going to get

[austere lance]

GIVE ME RDR1 REMASTER YOU FUCKS

RDR1>2, and I'll die on that hill

I put hundreds of hours into 1+Undead Nightmare, I barely made it through one playthrough of 2

[austere lance]

https://youtu.be/an-8tjy9MUA

Got revealed a couple weeks ago

[dry copper]

I don't know who is more naive, Coppertop or Kathleen

I do not trust the Dynasty developers

Are they the ones that made that farm dynasty?

[primal loom]

Coppertop trying their best lol

[dull tulip]

Tbh if they don't release a RD2 ps5 upgrade just cause they were butthurt. I'm done with their company. Red dead 1 remaster would've been great too 😕 sounds like they're just upset that fans don't want them to be lazy about it. They wanna shit out a product and still make $$$

[dry copper]

The naivety is kind of...endearing?

It's like an old person with the mental capacity of a child

[austere lance]

I think Wild West is their first game

Can't find any others

[dry copper]

Ah I see why I was confused. The publisher did another dynasty game that wasn't bad.

They published Medieval Dynasty

I've only played one game with the name Dynasty in it and was disgusted by it

They also published that

Famers Dynasty

It's a horrible game with horrible controls. It has all of the social character and design of a sims game with no sims

The AI is dumb as hot garbage and glitchy. Nothing makes sense. The conversations are incoherent

I know

She will be happy forever as long as that is happy

I have a strong inclination that Grow is going to grow on me....

[primal loom]

She's like "I don't know what's happening, this house appeared suddenly overnight and now it's mine I guess"

[dull tulip]

She has the face: I was kidnapped weeks ago and forced to live here, if I don't play along I'm gonna be buried behind this house

[dry copper]

It's got a slow start but it's....weird in a good way

Hi yes I am a human, please let me live in your town

Wants to work at the critter center though

Oh great. The devil wants to move in, too

This is how the movie Legend went, right?

https://tenor.com/view/devil-satan-legend-smiling-gif-25560806

And Tim Curry was the devil

[dry copper]

Tim Curry is a good guy. I hope he's doing okay

He's 76 now

This is the last interview I could find with him
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ezaVhkdmKwQ

@primal loom Did you say break down everything for alchemy?

[primal loom]

Pretty much yeah

You can also give stuff to the Everkin in Where-Ever for Everkoins

You can use those to buy essences that you might not have access to yet

Worth noting that Grow is still getting updates

Been a few months since the last one it looks like so the next one may be soon-ish

[dry copper]

Also there are decorations I don't want to break up

I can use those to decorate

[primal loom]

They don't count as decorations, but I believe you can grab that stuff from your backpack and set it down on the ground and it should stay

doesn't count against the decoration part limit either

[dry copper]

Apparently I have to perform actions for a worm-dog? Confused. It showed me a teddy bear...Does it want a hug?

[primal loom]

Probably

[dry copper]

Oh, rub belly

I have no idea how to rub belly

[primal loom]

There's 2 actions you can do with small critters, rub belly or play

I play with controller so I don't know what key it is for keyboard

[dry copper]

omgerd this is adorable...I'm going to puke a rainbow

Does everyoine get the same pets?

Are they randomly generated?

[primal loom]

They are procgen'd

[dry copper]

hahaha, a bug ran right off a cliff rather than be caught by me

[primal loom]

Here's the ones I got on the first world the game gives you

One of my favorites so far, I call them bananadoodles

[dry copper]

Bananoodles

Holy smokes....

I want that pet

[primal loom]

I'll have to test if the same essence formula for a world seed makes an identical world or if it's randomized a bit

If it's the same I could share the formula with you

Bananoodles for all

The space whale/dragon thing is awesome

[ruby solar]

finished stray yesterday, and had to make a companion oc - i dont usually make ocs for games that dont have character creation, but i just really like these robot people 😅

[dry copper]

Where do I get dreamy essences?

[primal loom]

If they're not given by your world you'll have to snag them from the essence shop in Where-Ever

Then you could make a world seed with those and have a sustainable source

You can automate collecting stuff later with unpaid child labor volunteers

[dry copper]

That's what children are called, too

I mean...your own kids

Every child is a volunteer

"Do your chores or you won't get paid in SURVIVING THIS WORLD!"

Grow is....surprising. It's the "What's eating gilbert grape" of video games, in the way it teases you, confuses you and then blows you away - Like you were barely worth the time it took to entertain you.

It presents an innocence in its development that makes no effort to be edgy or suggestive and I find that alarming and refreshing. It's nice to be able to show a game to a child and not have to explain some stupid adult inside joke.

Or have to worry about said child sharing the same joke because they love the game and the game is an asshole, teaching your child profanities

[primal loom]

For sure

[dry copper]

I never noticed, can you have more than one save?

Thinking of getting the game for my nephew

Whose brother will want to play

and they can't share saves....or they'll fight over and delete one anothers stuff

[primal loom]

The classic sibling rivalry lol

I believe you can

I'm not sure though

[dry copper]

One already deleted the others save for Lego World

Lets just say it didn't go well

[primal loom]

Aw 😢

[dry copper]

I had to teach how to save to memory stick

So they can keep their saves away

[primal loom]

iirc there's quite a few save slots but they may accidentally overwrite one another's save

[thorn dawn]

I thought this was going to be a modern version of grow 😦

Wow. The most valuable card in my steam trading cards rn is a no mans sky card

Valued at near 50 cents

I'm lying. I found one worth $1.20

Trading cards are weird.

[sleek cloud]

Check your items if you have any, especially from CSGO. Brought a few games doing that

[pearl bough]

I don't get the cards and real money thing.

[dry copper]

Seriously annoyed that developers do "live" broadcasts using recorded footage

That should eliminate a developer from using the live broadcast feature

Some skins can be worth 100s, if not 1000s

Was like....This looks like cartoony survival....take my money

Haven't installed it yet.

[pearl bough]

Why do people pay real money tho for cards? Do they actually do something or is it like a virtual stamp collection?

[sleek cloud]

it's just that, a collection

people will pay silly money

[pearl bough]

Ah

Too bad you can't turn in a set for a free game lol

i didnt save before changing so its all gone anyways

[dreamy zinc]

that some neat art tbh XD

[thorn dawn]

[dreamy zinc]

good lookign strong XD

i dont even wanna rebuild it now bc of it

If you'd lose it anyway, I'd try saving, then warping

[fierce nebula]

okie

[thorn dawn]

you never know

[fierce nebula]

warp my freighter or just me

[thorn dawn]

either is fine, warp the freighter, or warp and summon

anything to make the game re-render the freighter

[fierce nebula]

ight thank you

ITS ALL BACK

nice!

[fierce nebula]

but now the door is blocked

Can always build a new door

save before you mess with it tho

[fierce nebula]

no i mean i cant get into the building area

theres a legit wall in the way

[thorn dawn]

Can you delete it?

when i try to im technically in the room so i cant

do you know a way to glitch through a wall bc it would be pretty helpful rn

not that you can't talk about NMS in here tbh XD

you're free to do whatever

in that case !hg

The most onerous achievement in Assassin's Creed: Origins seems to be history based, going through 20 different history related guides. Thinking back to my time reading history blurbs in AC1, I find this pleasing.

Oh boy, I missed playing AC

John Wick 5: Back to the matrix

[tired fulcrum]

I love John Wick, but it is starting to get to be too much

[willow crypt]

milk it till it hurts

[dry copper]

It's too fast and too furious

The only thing they could do to make it cheesier would be to have vin diesel in the cast

They should just make a spin off, call it Pay Day and let it go.

Pay Day was the only cross over I saw that made John Wick look solid.

[idle saffron]

And then reboot it in 10 years

Remake remake remake, remaster remaster

[dusty fable]

I hope John Wick 4 is the last movie from them

[dry copper]

The John Wickiest

[dusty fable]

I mean fr how many times John needs to escape from them? it's seems too much for him

[idle saffron]

All the times

[dry copper]

About as many times as girls get taken in taken

[idle saffron]

All the takens

[dry copper]

Taken 4 Granted

[idle saffron]

Lol

[tired fulcrum]

I think they already signed deals through John Wick 5

[idle saffron]

I don't mind - I like mindless action flicks with large plot holes

[tired fulcrum]

Yeah, JW5 confirmed 1.5 years ago

[idle saffron]

That's Taken: The Prequel

[dry copper]

Nobody watches John Wick expecting plot and character development.

That's like expecting the fast and furious to have more emotion and situational comedy

[tired fulcrum]

I do! I want to know more about the hotel and the Table and all that stuff

I just don't expect it to make much sense

Sorry. Reminded me of a forensic pathologist that raises the dead, rather than do his job - to uncover killers.

Can't access GTA Online in two days smh

[broken prairie]

Anyone else tried the Satisfactory Plus overhaul mod, it looks pretty well done so far, definetly slower paced and a good bit of new stuff

[fleet moat]

this is brilliant! ty so much for sharing this. did you see this comment? love how much they experiment musically, while still holding true to their signature sound. so good

[dry copper]

This is a level of appreciation I will never understand for cartoons

Imagine if art enthusiasts were fighting over the abstractions of van gogh vs da vinci

[broken prairie]

That video was spot on

Every take is a hot take in anime

[balmy plaza]

Yeah it's awesome! I love how they've tapped into their older stuff but added new elements

[dry copper]

Even a broken clock is right twice a day

Gotta love inflammatory headlines

The opening paragraph to the story establishes a false narrative that somehow there's some collective secular organized effort claiming the bible is a collection of made up myths and folktales.

[willow crypt]

oh believe me, there are plenty of em

[dry copper]

I'm sure there are, but there are an equal number of non-secular efforts that say the same.

Secularism has nothing to do with reasons the bible is called into question

[willow crypt]

i don't see your point

he's calling out the secularists who claim these stories are false

there will always be both sides to the coin

you're just arguing to argue.

[dry copper]

It looks like the story is creating a dichotomy for the purpose of claiming secularism is some sort of boogey man

[willow crypt]

his goal is to show the legitimacy of biblical history. don't think too deeply about it

[dry copper]

Have you read the nature story yet?

[willow crypt]

have you read the bible yet?

[dry copper]

yes.

[willow crypt]

okay, read it again

[dry copper]

Are you trying to antagonize? I was citing the nature story used in the article, to get your opinion - Not stoke your ego.

https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-021-97778-3

It's an interesting read

[willow crypt]

you've already read it?

may read later

[dry copper]

Not finished yet. I just like geology so it's full of interesting tidbits about the effects of an airburst thousands of years ago.

[willow crypt]

will check it out. I don't rely on this stuff to 'strengthen' my faith, but i find biblical archaeological discoveries interesting. The fact that we have this story of Sodom in the bible that many don't truly believe to be literal, but has been supported through these archaeological finds, shouldn't be glossed over by anyone

[dry copper]

I don't see it being glossed over, but then neither should it be taken at face value, either. Evidence in the form of "something happened" is not evidence that such a thing was supernatural.

Promotions should remain based on evidence and not anecdotes.

[willow crypt]

not trying to make that point, mumbles

one small step at a time

just want people to see that stories told in the OT/NT are not just stories (whether or not you believe they were caused by God)

[dry copper]

Fair enough. I'm not of the opinion they were ever just stories. Some of the proposed authors were well known historians of the times.

[willow crypt]

you're part of a different group of people my argument isn't pointed towards then

many do think they were, people i've discussed this stuff with elsewhere

the other side of the debate aint a great place for this discord

since...you know why

[dry copper]

There's a difference between exploring a story for its religious context and its anthropological elements. There is value in approaching the discussion with anthropology at heart.

Especially in understanding how cultures have evolved without regard for more sensitive opinions.

The explosive force of whatever destroyed Tall el-Hammam was over 1400 degrees celsius and pressures of 5-10gpa. For reference 5.8 GPA according to the cornell center for materials research is somewhere in the neighborhood of 840,000 PSI.

It's like someone set off a nuclear bomb right over head.

The conclusion summarizes the evidence suggesting an airburst larger than the 22-megaton explosion at Tunguska in 1908.

The airburst continued for kilometers SW of Tall el-Hammam, melting exposed materials and roofs with thermal pulses

Regarding this proposed airburst, an eyewitness description of this 3600-year-old catastrophic event may have been passed down as an oral tradition that eventually became the written biblical account about the destruction of Sodom. There are no known ancient writings or books of the Bible, other than Genesis, that describe what could be construed as the destruction of a city by an airburst/impact event. This airburst/impact hypothesis would make Tall el-Hammam the second oldest known city/town to have been destroyed by an airburst/impact event that produced extensive human casualties, after Abu Hureyra, Syria at ~ 12,800 cal BP17. Similarly small but devastating cosmic events are expected to recur every few thousand years189, and although the risk is low, the potential damage is exceedingly high, putting Earth’s cities at risk and encouraging mitigation strategies.

[willow crypt]

i can't read that one right now, but yeah. it's insane. He said in the article people could read newspapers at midnight

[dry copper]

It's something you see on the news even today where airbursts have occurred. We can certainly acknowledge their existence, but never really prepare for them. Earth is a shooting gallery.

Fanatical bundles are getting weird.

There was a game I saw on youtube some time ago where it's a RP but you're exploring wrecks to fix your own and upgrade it...I wish I could find it again. I wanted to buy the game.
