Oh and what timezone is Portugal in?

#

I'm asking this because I know games can last quite some time

#

@snow zenith

snow zenith
#

Err

#

Probably weekends tbh, for Stellaris

solid lynx
#

hm

#

It's monday

#

So I suppose another alternative could be to split the game into multiple sessions?

#

However if it's weekends then I ought to play some singleplayer in order to get the hang of the game

snow zenith
#

Either or ig

solid lynx
#

Hmm

#

We can do whatever y'all want to do

#

Whenever you're awake, you can give your input @primal loom

I suppose we could start a session either Saturday or Friday night, whichever is good

Ok Dredge is OP in Dead by Daylight

#

Just had a match where I killed all 4 survivors without them repairing a single generator

#

and that was my second match with it

coarse swift
#

more like 2 actually

#

But I've never sat down to play it in earnest tbh.

#

Nobody to play it with

#

I haven’t played a single match with it that I haven’t gotten all 4 survivors

#

And i’ve played like 5 matches

solid lynx
dry copper
#

Never. I like the concept but I find its design lacks the kind of motivation I'm looking for in that sort of game.

solid lynx
#

Hmm

#

Alright

dry copper
#

When I was talking to the developers in the alpha stages, the conversation was about making it so the villain character was more motivated to scaring and less to killing

#

Back then I was playing a game called Damned where you similarly play a monster against 4 survivors trying to escape

dry copper
#

During alpha on discord.

#

This was like forever ago

#

When the game was still in design phases

solid lynx
#

Ah

#

I suck at survivor so I only play killer lol

#

(I am not a good teammate)

dry copper
#

I thought they were going to make the villain more villanous, by making the objective of the survivors more involved, while making the villain harder to conjure, but it made the matches too long so people didn't play as much

#

Me, personally - I liked playing with my food.

#

The way they ended up designing the game made the survivors too strong for someone that doesn't aggressively just try and kill them...Which wasn't my sort of thing

#

In damned, you could haunt objects in a room, but you couldn't see the player survivor unless they turned on their flash light or made a lot of noise.

solid lynx
#

Hm

#

Interesting

dry copper
#

Monsters couldn't go through doors when they were in their corporeal form but could go through them all when they couldn't see players

solid lynx
#

I’m definitely in it to kill though so the game works out to be a very fun experience

#

The thrill of the hunt, that sort of thing

#

And the newest killer certainly makes the hunting easy

visual scarab
#

This game is kinda fun tho

#

Oh hey Doggos

dry copper
#

You have big balls

# solid lynx It can teleport between lockers

And it has a perk it can use that makes it so that if it searches a locker all survivors within like 8 meters of a locker have their auras revealed to the killer, so you can search a locker, see a survivor, then teleport to and exit the locker they were next to

#

Absolutely broken

#

I love it

#

It adds a certain level of unfairness to the game though lol

dry copper
#

I'm weirded out by Will Smiths apology video to chris rock. The dude looks like he's trying to make a show of it - because chris don't wanna hear his bs and he can't stand being refused

#

Like the apology is all hollywood'ed up

solid lynx
#

Will Smith really out here trying his best to damage his good reputation recently

dry copper
#

I don't trust people who apologize on videos unprompted to people they have wronged

visual scarab

#

I mean, someone beats me in public - I ain't about that shit being dragged out on the street a month later in apologies.

So I ain't going to engage them

Ever

#

Oh ya sorry, I was playing Anime Souls

dry copper
#

When you're a survivor do you know what monster the baddy is?

solid lynx
#

Hmm I don’t think so

dry copper
#

Seems unfair

solid lynx
#

Not until you see them or an environmental object related to them

#

However the new killer, The Dredge, has an obvious sign that’s what you will be facing

#

If you’re up against it all the lockers will have locks on them

#

That you can lock

dry copper
#

That's a lot of locker locking

solid lynx
#

And if the killer is outside of the lockers and sees a locked one they can break the lock

#

However

#

From what i can tell

#

It seems that there is actually somewhat of a sound cue when the killer teleports to a new locker

#

Like a bang from inside the locker

#

Or thump

visual scarab
#

Sounds like a bandaid for a huge wound ngl

solid lynx
#

Still though the killer can exit the locker as soon as they teleport to it so you still have to have good reaction time in order to start running

solid lynx
#

Also usually it takes two hits to down a survivor

#

But apparently if you teleport to a locker with a survivor in it, it downs them instantly

snow zenith
#

Something something Emperor show mercy to the fool that stands against me because I will not

snow zenith
#

Nah

@upbeat bolt ehh, not really a good thing for it to be "fine" in this instance though, considering it's the END of Mass Effect's trilogy 👀

overall the plot was pretty good 👌

then it kind of started going downhill near the end

Those were big shoes to fill. Overall I don't dislike them as muvh as most. The gameplay & heavy combat made up for it & the leviathan dlc was good.

crimson garnet

yeah, though i would expect said shoes would be focused on pretty heavily 👀

#

since you can have a mediocre middle and good or even decent start

#

but you really want to not screw up on the ending :V

#

better the rest of the game is? Better the ending has to be

School of the lynx I think?

The Witcher Fanon Wikia

School of the Lynx was a witcher school found in 1273 by Joël, Gaetan, Dragonfly, Lambert and Keira Metz after they attempt to retake Dyn Marv Caravan from Nilfgaardian soldiers. The Lynx School appeared shortly after the official extinction of the School of the Wolf, when its remaining members, among them the notables Eskel, Geralt of Rivia and...

snow zenith
#

School of the Cat is very unorthodox, even for Witchers, so should be fun

#

That's Fanon

dry copper
snow zenith
#

iirc the canon Schools are Viper, Wolf, Manticore, Cat, Crane, Griffin, and Bear

#

Well that's a new one then

dry copper
#

The article says it's fan fiction

snow zenith
#

CDPR is adapting fan fiction then? Should be... interesting

dry copper
#

In response to many fan speculations regarding this teaser image for The Witcher, CDPR’s community manager, Marcin Momot, confirmed that the above medallion is, in fact, from the School of the Lynx. This is a bit strange, delightfully so, considering the fact that the School of the Lynx has only ever been established within fanfiction.

#

Wouldn't be surprised to see them taking fan fiction and making it their own. It's cheaper than ripping off another author's years of books and then twisting the story to their own ends.

#

Not to say their story was stolen, but certainly modified

Because I've seen people in this very channel talking about this previously

then start killing the people who were driving the cars that they slammed into

In most cases...I've seen half-assed chases end up like that, where the victims are armed and have some cash on them.

whats swd io

full magnet
#

yes

restive current
#

Problem is...you require the game to be owned on Steam (with relevant DLCs)...so if I buy Stellaris or NMS on GOG, I have to re-buy on Steam for it to work.

#

SWDIO helped people like me download modifications without re-buying games on Steam.

full magnet
#

Ooooooh ok

#

I mean that’s understandable

restive current
#

But since Valve is a corporation...they're trying to control what happens on their software and developers seem to not care about users enough to upload them on GitHub and/or ModDB.

visual scarab
#

Doesn’t Steam protect their creator’s intellectual property rights too though?

full magnet
#

i mean fuck corps but what does that have to do with corps if the developers aren’t doing it

restive current
#

They didn't have to control things like that.

#

Regardless of what modification developers do, they're not supposed to treat it like a vise and just close it when they see fit.

visual scarab
#

Doesn’t SWD enables people to download mods? I’m pretty sure some asshat will download some mods, some screenshots then advertise it as their own stuff

#

Doesn’t sound cool tbh

restive current
#

Well...intellectual property is a concept I staunchly disagree with, but that's another topic.

#

The fact is IP only punishes legitimate users.

#

If I buy Stellaris, I can't use modifications if they're on the Workshop.

#

Their intellectual property can go to hell...especially after spending money on a game.

#

(Stellaris being an example, since that's what I'm currently playing)

visual scarab

You spent money on a different area though

its still a different platform

no its like paying for a cheapo ticket and expecting a higher end cabin

#

you get what you paid for

visual scarab
#

I mean, both are different platforms and they offer their services separately though

full magnet
#

you paid for gog, why would steam give you what belongs to them

restive current
full magnet
#

but if you wanted steam features, why didn’t you buy the steam version?

restive current
#

Because I didn't want Steam features, simply modifications.

#

GOG suits me...no DRM, no strings, no log-ins needed.

full magnet
#

The modifications are steam features

#

?

#

its called steam workshop

visual scarab
#

Steam Workshop kinda comes with other Steam features as one package though

restive current
#

I'm pretty sure modifications for games existed long before Steam Workshop did.

full magnet
#

ok but

#

You’re using steam workshop

#

are you not?

#

if you’re not using steam workshop, there’s no issue to begin with

restive current
#

I love how you're saying that because it's on Steam, it's perfectly fine to have locked-down stuff for other launchers.

full magnet
#

You’re strawmanning

restive current
#

Because yes, someone who spent money doesn't deserve to use modifications just because they're on some other launcher...they deserve to get shafted because of that.

#

I'm not straw-manning at all, I just don't see why the different platforms even matter...it's the same damn game, not even different hardware or anything.

visual scarab
#

Their creators chose Steam instead of uploading to other platforms though, it’s their right to do so

restive current
#

Yea...unfortunately.

#

And Valve chose to limit people.

visual scarab
#

Their properties, their rules tbh

#

It’s limiting people all right, but there are some people who might take others’ work then profiting from it

restive current
#

Yea...well...good luck profiting from an already free modification.

visual scarab
restive current
#

Seriously, I don't get why people think ownership matters more than accessibility...but I suppose I'm not in a position to change things.

visual scarab
#

Not everyone know about swd, they can be exploited as well

restive current
#

'Exploited'...on the internet where nothing can be stolen...

#

You might see it as an ownership issue...but I'll disagree.

visual scarab
#

More like “being taken advantage of”, it can’t be stolen, but there will always be some asshats who download those files and sell it to unsuspecting people

restive current
#

Locking out a whole user-base for a few 'ass-hats'...nice.

visual scarab
#

Hey, it’s because their property rights are violated after all

restive current
#

'Property' arguments never get old...

full magnet
#

I mean, things can definitely be stolen on the internet, there’s court cases all the time over plagiarism

#

Pirating is a very large issue that doesn’t only affect corporations

#

and yeah while I dont see the real harm in allowing workshop to third properties, it makes sense because it’s their property

#

it would be a bro thing to allow it, but this just a normal decision, it’s not really evil it’s just neutral

#

idk what word to use there but you get my point

#

It isn’t hurting steam for people to use it

#

this is just unfortunate, and it looks like whoever wrote that is in agreement that it accidentally became a workaround

restive current
#

Ain't about Steam...just a link in a chain.

full magnet
#

right right, we live in a society

restive current
#

And if people create something and worry about their property rather than just freely sharing with others regardless of any nonsensical 'stealing' argument...then IDK what to say, but something definitely went completely wrong somewhere...

#

After all...every 'original' is built upon some prior idea...

full magnet
#

i mean the writer admitted that they were in the wrong

#

it became a project that became a loophole that wasn’t their original idea

#

But yeah, unfortunate, but hey now you can send hello games more money to buy it again if you want to use steam property PepoBusiness

restive current
#

Not at all.

#

Buying once is already a waste. Buying twice...idiocy.

#

But...this discussion is turning into a big deja vu for me, so I'll digress.

full magnet
#

I’ve bought games i enjoy multiple times so I could play them with friends on other platforms, up to you

#

I own dragons dogma more than i own skyrim

austere lance
#

Dragons Dogma 2 😫

restive current
full magnet
#

DRAGONS 🤜 DOGMA 🤛 2 👊

#

huge hype

austere lance
#

They really did a whole Dragons Dogma anniversary stream just to announce 2 at the end, lol

full magnet
austere lance
#

Jesus, why

full magnet
#

About $700 into smite

#

maybe $300 into league

full magnet
#

was hella into the game

#

I can’t wait for cross to launch so i can use my switch account on pc

#

My switch dojo is fucking BEAUTIFUL

#

Homie is as manic as we are

full magnet
#

I'm getting the itch to get back into barotrauma

solid lynx
#

Also THIS is a new skin for the Oni killer in DBD... definitely was not expecting it lol

full magnet
#

My roommate was really excited

full magnet
#

I’m a few updates behind but i know the basics

solid lynx
#

I know just about nothing lol

#

Again haven't played before

full magnet
#

It’s weird to learn

#

Skilltree makes it a little easier

solid lynx
#

All I really know about it is submarine management in dark alien ocean

#

With things that want to kill you

full magnet
#

it’s not basic management

#

There’s a good deal that goes into it

solid lynx
#

yeah

#

We should play at some point

full magnet
#

But it’s fun

solid lynx
#

What time is it for you right now?

full magnet
#

midnight

solid lynx
#

ah okay

#

It's 2:16 for me

#

hmm

#

Maybe tomorrow night?

#

How many people is the best to have?

full magnet
#

More the merrier

#

There’s bots but they’re not smart

solid lynx
#

Are they stupid to the point that they get in the way?

full magnet
#

They do their jobs to the minimal necessary

solid lynx
#

ok

#

Hmm

#

Alright

#

But does tomorrow night sound like a good time?

full magnet
#

i usually get bots to fill in what jobs people dont have

#

Im at work rn

solid lynx
#

Uh

#

Night shifts

full magnet
#

So itll depend

#

i try to go to sleep when i get home so I’d prob be available around 5-6pm

#

Depends on if i can sleep

solid lynx
#

Well then I guess just let me know if a good time comes up lol

#

and if 5-6 is 7-8 for me that's pretty much perfect

#

But yeah just let me know whenever you want to play and i'll probably be avaliable

full magnet
#

Oki doki

solid lynx
#

Summer break for me rn so I don't have much else to do

snow zenith
#

Bought Barotrauma

#

It didn't launch

#

Refunded Barotrauma

#

That's been my experience

daring spear
#

Am pretty and sleep

solid lynx
#

It's nice

#

However

#

I will not be doing it next time

#

As I just got a cypress memento mori

full magnet
#

My whole thought process is killer is basically the host, game can be fun or boring depending on the killer

#

as a survivor i like when the killer does their job but also fucks around

#

easy games aren't fun but neither is getting puppy camped and hard focused

#

that's all just me tho, dbd discord fucking hates my thought process

#

they get REAL mad when i talk

#

then again the community just kinda sucks ass

#

which is crazy cause all the streamers ive talked with/watched have been mad chillin

full magnet
solid lynx
#

I do hard focus on occasion but I never puppy camp because that shit is annoying af

#

Plus it's giving the other survivors opportunities to repair gens, and we can't have that

#

Like last match I did hard focus a dude until he got sacrificed by being hooked a third time because he pissed me off

#

Was playing ring around in the killer shack

dry copper
#

Guess what game just made the Worst MMO Ever lineup?

#

Been a while since I played it, but not sure I'd agree.

#

It's a pretty ok game for star wars fans

#

Not like there are a lot of options

full magnet
#

The main issue with SWTOR is that it's CLASSIC classic mmo tab target and not very well made because of EA not caring

#

If you play it like a single player game, it's fine and has great stories

#

Idk If I'd call it the worst either, but it's not great

#

In terms of being an MMO

#

ff14 however

#

top tier

snow zenith
#

the combat is fucking brain dead sadly which is what often keeps me from playing regularly

#

I'm hoping playing with you is gonna keep me on longer lol

full magnet
#

It's kind of insulting to call SWTOR mmo because it's so utterly lacking in what makes MMOs good, it's very archaic and the balancing is poor

#

I feel like the only reason it's still up is because bioware knows how to write a damn good story

#

though i've heard the story post base game is lacking, but i wouldnt know

snow zenith
#

ohno

#

It's not that it's not compelling, it's just that the lack of funding is showing

#

An entire expansion was 2 hours of gameplay lol

full magnet
#

It's so crazy that EA can't see what a goldmine SWTOR is if they'd just update it

#

It's not like tab target is a dead system

#

FF14 is a tab target

snow zenith
#

WoW

full magnet
#

WoW is on a massive decline

#

Blizzard is not worth mentioning anymore

#

they shot themselves through the skull with a grenade

#

Unless there's HUGE changes in how Blizzard runs as a company, SWTOR will be bigger than WoW

#

Which is such a damn shame

#

I heard the starcraft team dropped blizzard and are making their own game now

#

I really want a new mmo to play that isn't ff14, i'm always looking

snow zenith
#

I think the only MMOs I'll sink in nowadays is SWTOR or ESO

full magnet
#

new world is interesting but they woopsie daisied half the countries characters into the bin

snow zenith
#

not really an MMO guy ig

full magnet
#

I want Mabinogi but with funding

#

is what it really all boils down to

#

New World was supposed to be that

#

Bitcraft has my eye but I've barely seen anything on it

snow zenith
#

New World interests me none because it's focused around PvP

full magnet
#

You have to enable pvp

#

There's good games on the horizon, but right now it's very stale

winter yew
#

opinion on Bethesda's Starfield?

idle saffron
#

It's the best game I ever haven't played yet

#

Seriously though - I'm excited, I love space games

#

Joined Constellation already lol

idle saffron
#

It's a day one Gamepass game, I don't need to

#

Woot

snow zenith
#

oh yea truuuu

#

I'm gonna have an Xbox by then so same

idle saffron
#

Been looking for more decent space games, and I like what I have seen

#

Gameplay showed me I'm in already

snow zenith
#

Same

winter yew
idle saffron
#

I don't get the people crapping on it. They compare it to Fallout or Skyrim, as if that is a bad thing to me lol

#

I enjoyed those

#

Skyrim at the time was a crazy good game, not sure it can still hold up but wow

idle saffron
#

Yeahhh

#

Bit rough now

#

Not then though

#

Aside from bugs, and I mean

#

I play NMS

#

I can deal with bugs

snow zenith
#

I love it

#

Bethesda can do open world games in a really unique way

willow crypt
#

it’s still a good exploration game to this day despite its issues and outdated graphics

snow zenith
#

I still play Morrowind

#

Love it to bits

sturdy pendant
#

Morrowind is my favourite when it comes to content. It is probably my most played game ever after Zeldas.

#

I have no idea how much though, this was back when the game was new and came with like 5 or 6 install CD's :D

#

I cannot remember.

snow zenith
#

Morrowind multiplayer is silly fun

#

wink wink nudge nudge

sturdy pendant
#

I haven't finished Skyrim ever. Have playe dit a lot but none of them have been as intensely immersive as Morrowind was. I did play Oblivion a lot too.

#

Yeah.. Been thinking about it, but I generally avoid multiplayer games. People an all, you know..

snow zenith
#

I'm good people

#

lol

#

Nah I getcha

#

Only tend to play with people I know too

sturdy pendant
#

I'm an antisocial introvert even online, so I don't have many friends :D Only a few, that are okay with me going quiet for months at a time.

#

It is a lot to expect from people, so I'm not complaining.

dry copper
#

I want a remake of Neocron

#

Game had so much potential just pissed away

#

and when I say remake, I don't mean relaunch the same shit

#

They've been re-releasing the same game for over a decade now

#

Trying to get attention

@snow zenith this is who i wanted u to name

#

Because the game doesn't have waypoints, and fast travel is more of a subway system, the authors had to write out directions with landmarks and such

#

They went above and beyond to add a lot of personality to it

#

It was as thick as college textbooks, on very thin pages

sturdy pendant
#

I haven't ever read that.

#

But doesn't surprise me, with how much content there is in that game, even without any mods.

charred badge
#

Came in the box set I got from Best Buy years ago

#

Too bad I tossed it in a fit of cleaning

sturdy pendant
#

I don't think I ever used mods on Morrowind. I know I used a couple on Oblivion. I don't generally care for mods.

cerulean kite
#

i pirated Morrowind a few years ago for PC, not being guaranteed symmetric armor scared me away

charred badge
#

I occasionally made a mod to make some things more convenient.
"Secret subway" type mods were pretty popular

#

And the obligatory player housing

#

I think I even have my discs, still

sturdy pendant
#

I've given up most physical stuff years ago. All my games, all my music cd's, all my movies. Prefer digital form now. Except books.

cerulean kite
#

i still like getting physical discs a lot of the time so i can share games with my brothers/friends

charred badge
#

Yeah, I've gotten rid of most of my physical stuff, but I've kept a disc folio and rewritable disc stacks

#

Time has proven that having software on a disc is more reliable than servers sometimes

sturdy pendant
#

I don't even have a pc that I can use discs anymore :D Or a stereo for music. Do have a ps4 but everything on it is digital too.

#

Only physical stuff are switch and wii stuff.

charred badge
#

I got a cheap USB drive

#

Mostly lives in a drawer

sleek cloud
#

same, used it once lol

charred badge
#

The tech has hit that sweet spot where it's old enough to be cheap and reliable at the same time

full magnet
snow zenith
#

Probably

#

Pretty safe bet considering Bethesda got acquired

full magnet
#

I know literally nothing about this game

#

other than people are like hecc ya

snow zenith
#

I only know from trailers and presentations

#

I'm definitely excited

full magnet
#

I’m brutally out of the loop

snow zenith
#

Well

#

Get brutally in the loop then >:(

full magnet
#

make me

snow zenith
#

I will 😈

coarse swift
#

I would like Starfield now plz

#

Thanks in advance

#

Ykno i never did join the Constellation thing

#

The fuck is wrong with me

#

I don't deserve to play a space game

torpid lynx
#

Whatever happened to that space game someone was developing in Unreal?

#

Can’t remember the name I just know someone kept comparing it to NMS 😐

coarse swift
#

Unreal is a space game

torpid lynx
#

lol

#

I mean it was spaceships and planetary exploration

coarse swift
#

Planetary exploration... while fragging

torpid lynx
#

Lol

#

Ok I figured it out

winter yew
#

Maybe that.

torpid lynx
#

Yes that

#

Most recent post from them was back in May

winter yew
#

7 years in development atm.
Got shown at one of the game reveal / award shows earlier this year, I can't remember which one.

#

Hired a guy to work on the story and narrative at the beginning of this year, hopefully means the game itself is close to being complete to allow a story to be worked in.

#

all hail the queen

visual scarab
#

Is it from a Borderlands 2 DLC too?

#

I remember there was an unicorn in that game tho

coarse swift
#

Butt Stallion was a thing since Borderlands 2 without DLC, just wasn't given physical form until the Tiny Tina dlc

visual scarab
#

Yeah I mean the physical form, I remember seeing it in a dlc

tame cairn
#

yes the best BL2 dlc

#

tiny tinas assault on dragon keep

#

but Handsome jack bought her

#

was gonna name her pissforbrains

#

in honor of us

#

lmao

visual scarab
#

Isn’t assault on dragon keep some kind of DnD themed dlc?

steady gate
#

Trolls, fairies, dragons, that sort etc

visual scarab
#

Close enough, I played back in 2018-19 or so

steady gate
#

Yeah it's been a while since I've played BL2 aswell

cerulean kite
#

assault on dragon keep has D&D influences for sure, but more fantasy, there were a bunch of nerd references thrown in. there was even a dark souls bonfire hidden in this lake of acid lol

#

Wonderlands is 100% Dungeons and Dragons themed

tame cairn
#

lmao

#

Dungeons and Dragons?

#

i mean…

#

you use a die to move?

#

just not really for gameplay sake

steady gate
#

I thought it was called assault on dragon keep

tame cairn
#

the dlc

#

watch the dlc intro

steady gate
#

Ah ok

tame cairn
#

the game is called B&B

steady gate
#

My bad

#

Ohhhhh that makes sense lmao

tame cairn
#

gotta love the uh

#

white knight

#

🤣

cerulean kite
#

i havent played assault on dragon keep for so long, youre saying it def was bunkers and badasses @tame cairn ?

cerulean kite
tame cairn
#

yeah same as wonderlands

#

pretty sure anyways

#

that was just the beginning

tame cairn
cerulean kite
#

theres a white knight in wonderlands?

tame cairn
#

no no

#

yea to the other part

cerulean kite
#

ohh yeah i mixed up your responses

tame cairn
#

😅

cerulean kite
#

a lot of the voice actors are used in wonderlands for smaller parts i think, but the only main characters that show up are Tina and Torgue in wonderlands i think

tame cairn
#

aw thats kinda sad

#

so im guessing wonderlands is after 3?

#

idk

cerulean kite
#

then they used famous ppl for tina's B&B party, and for the main villain

tame cairn
#

yea, the party

#

never seen them before

#

must be after 3

cerulean kite
#

i think theyre brand new characters

#

i believe theyre gunna make wonderlands a separate series

#

i do really enjoy Will Arnett as the Dragon Lord though (the villain)

tame cairn
#

oh

#

i kind of hope this is a one-off

#

Chances are they cut huge corners by claiming the earth is virtually uninhabitable and everyone lives in space and the population is spread out over the solar system

#

and global warming has destroyed much of the planets life

#

Earth is kinda big

@solid lynx baro?

Huh?

Oh

Uhh yeah sure

#

Just a bit

Just curious to learn more

Oh. You're right. It's not even this solar system.

#

I misread the synopsis

primal loom

Ah

Oh...Apparently it is

#

It's set in the future like year 2500 or something

primal loom
#

Oh neat

dry copper
primal loom
#

I see one of the screenshots on the store page has Earth

#

Looks interesting, I like the art style

#

Def not going to be to-scale based on the screenshots but I think that's a good thing lol

#

1:1 scale is overrated

tame cairn
#

thatd be nuts

#

lol

primal loom
#

Yeah for sure

#

Full scale is a pain to make and costly on performance, but it's also very hard to make fun and engaging for players

#

So I don't mind at all when things get scaled down in games

I'm entirely too dumb for this but it's wild that the DBD devs are making it

#

@full magnet I just played what was by far the most annoying match I have played so far

#

Was a coorinated duo

#

Who were coordinating to hide

#

both were in bushes the whole map

#

and not to mention the map was Grave of Glenvale, which has so many big bushes

#

I finally caught both of them but not without losing my sanity
