[austere lance]

Evie best assassin in that game

[tranquil glen]

jacob if anything was just a merc barely even assassin

if they werent twins i dont think he would be one

[austere lance]

That was in the era where Ubi execs said "Women leads don't sell games" and they half-assedly put second male leads in at the last minute

[tranquil glen]

still though brotherhood has utterly shot my experience of ever finding joy with ezio

[shadow tartan]

PFFFFFF

The real deal

[tranquil glen]

think thats older than me ngl

welp time to suffer tank mision some more

cant wait to go chest hunting after mostly complete game

and flag hunting

[austere lance]

Bayek was supposed to die partway through Origins, then we were supposed to play as his wife the rest of the game
Kassandra was supposed to be the only character in her game
Evie was supposed to be the only character in her game
There was originally only a female Eivor
Ubi is dumb, lol

[dry copper]

Die by accident

[tranquil glen]

i mean, Evie got written out of her own game lol

[shadow tartan]

You probably accidentally ate the poison rice balls

[dry copper]

No. Just didn't compensate enough for a ledge and jumped off a roof

[shadow tartan]

Ah, skill issue

[tranquil glen]

dont you love it when game missions dont have checkpoints

[dry copper]

skill....suicidal tendancies....same diff

[balmy plaza]

The Eivor one is especially funny because there's no context in which it fits as a guy's name lol

[tranquil glen]

i do, i definitly love it when i miss 100% sync on a mission and have to redo IT ALL for just missing the last 10min

[balmy plaza]

It's like if you could pick between Kassandra and Alexios but the name stayed as Steve

[austere lance]

Arigami 2 being the closest thing we're getting to a new Tenchu then flopping hard enough that the studio closed still hurts me 💀

[tranquil glen]

ezio i love the hate relation you have with me

cause i feel the same ezio fuck you

watch me suffer, in game night vc

[shadow tartan]

I know you made me buy both of them

Told me he'd kill my cat if I didn't

[dry copper]

My favorite game to watch is "Hit the celebrity in the face with your cell phone at concerts."

[austere lance]

I made you buy 2, not the first one 🤣

[shadow tartan]

Yeah but you know I can't have the second one without the first

Have you go back and see what's changed and stuff like that

[tranquil glen]

I cant play it but my favorite game would be shoot ezio in the head with 10000000 soldiers

Yea thats how i feel about ezio

[shadow tartan]

Sounds like how I feel about Ghislaine Maxwell rn

Oof

@feral ginkgo @feral ginkgo #other-games #other-games I stopped playing the game about 9 months ago for a break, but I just got back into it last night, so I might be curious about the map rework.

Have a blast streaming! Hope it goes great for you!

[feral ginkgo]

First look the map is abandoned and it’s in ruins and the wind mill has that iconic scratching rusty sound effect that: uuuuuhg

It’s creepy and cool

[pliant iris]

Yup, I've been watching Twitch streamers play it, but I haven't felt like playing it myself. I hopped on last night, and the first ghost I saw when I got back into the game was a Shade, which was hilarious. So, I picked Shade, finished the game, and went to bed.

[feral ginkgo]

The whole forest is died the crops dried

It has a feeling

[pliant iris]

I'll need some time to get back into the game, you know? I used to be a pro, and I'm pretty sure I still am. I just gotta get used to the gear and some of the new ghost stuff, and, like, get back in the zone.

[feral ginkgo]

Well my first ghost on Grafton was poltergeist.

[austere lance]

I've never played it cuz I don't have a friend group willing to play, looks fun tho

hell yeah looks cool. I remember the original lol
might grab it up when I get time to play it.

[tranquil glen]

ahh yes helldivers 2 a great single player game, thanks steam for classifying it as such

[coarse swift]

I mean tbh, it doesn't support splitscreen

[tranquil glen]

warframe was also in that list..

[split ridge]

dang you play astroneer

[tranquil glen]

played, if i ever return its to run very old build

i care not for events

nor anything past base building though that was lil fun ngl

i prefer fixed bases, oxygen/power deposits, regenerating nodes of resources and block tornado storms

[split ridge]

100% complete o factorio, nice. I got a couple friends who like that game. Haven't played it for myself though.

[tranquil glen]

.. 😆 "100%" nope

[chilly scaffold]

I can't wait for hell divers to hit Xbox their gunna get so trolled

Not that I support said behavior but it'll be funny

[tranquil glen]

factorio is one of the few games in library that i kinda bricked

[polar coral]

Helldivers is not available for Xbox?

[tranquil glen]

not yet

[chilly scaffold]

Soon

[tranquil glen]

its coming quite soon

[polar coral]

And why isn't it on xbox?

Don't tell me the console war is still going on.

[tranquil glen]

of course it is

it wont end

🙏

[chilly scaffold]

Well it's basically over just times exclusive deals on various games and then there's Nintendo

Timed*

[polar coral]

Be careful, mentioning that company can result in a lawsuit.

[tranquil glen]

nintendo doesnt really count anymore though ngl since they improve the tech but theyve gon practically to fight mobile instead tho

[tranquil glen]

nintendo, nintendo, nintendo, nintendo, nintendo, nintendo

[chilly scaffold]

I paid my dues to Nintendo already lol

Just the Atlus games over 500 Australian in that picture

ig = i guess

What does IG mean?

Oh okay

[split ridge]

Oh? Looks like you got all the achievements on steam lol

[tranquil glen]

thanks to Steam Achievement Manager

which ngl i dont play it anymore bc of that also bc im not willing to sink 100+ hours into trying to get the hardest rarest for that 100%

steam says 100% ingame says like 5% or so iirc

[split ridge]

LOL I see

[tranquil glen]

does anyone play fishing barents sea?

[shadow temple]

you can play it single player

[coarse swift]

Sony owns the Helldivers IP, so it released on PlayStation
Its now releasing on Xbox probably because Sony and Xbox are loosening up on exclusives

[obtuse reef]

Funnily enough, Helldivers 1 was the third Playstation published game to be released on PC as well, with the two before it apparently being released on PC in 1997

[inland oasis]

August 26th, Xbox brethren we will unite for democracy! See you on the battlefield, and possibly all over it too! :D

Fucking loved Gears of War and I'm glad more people will be able to enjoy it

[tranquil glen]

Server game does not equal singleplayer imo

[inland oasis]

Helldivers 2 can be played entirely solo and singleplayer, just relies on internet connection to connect to said server. It’s a mp game but it can be singleplayer too

[mental rose]

No singleplayer would mean an online game is forced co-op.
That would just be silly. 😄

[tranquil glen]

Just cause its solo doesnt mean its singleplayer

Solo-able* doesnt mean singleplayer

Skyrim unmodded is singleplayer with mods its solo-able

[onyx mulch]

ok guys how do i fix these borders

[quaint escarp]

invade

[feral ginkgo]

It’s time to arm the Kentucky rifle and wig with the triangle bayonet and smooth bore pistol, and load the cannon at the top of the stairs against this Mexican Ruffians if they break into US territory.

Just as the Founding Fathers intended

[shadow temple]

According to who?

You can literally play as a single player

[tranquil glen]

https://tenor.com/view/modem-unplug-modem-unplug-x889-gif-24372440

How bout now?

Can you singleplayer a server game now??? HUH

[surreal crypt]

Actually pretty sure you still could

Granted you might not survive

[coarse swift]

I think the point is HD2 is an always online game

[shadow temple]

So zzz isn't a single player game?

You can play multiplayer games offline. Does that make it single player?

Your argument makes no sense when I can give countless examples

[surreal crypt]

I can test this now. Gotta put that big chonky game to use.

[tranquil glen]

Singleplayer imo

[surreal crypt]

It requires a connection no?

[tranquil glen]

Squad based games like warframe and hd2 are primarily still multiplayer due to forced internet conection thus not being singleplayer, just cause u can play it offline doesnt mean its still multiplayer

and no same device two controls does not count

[surreal crypt]

So just checked. You can't be offline on ZZZ.

So not a singleplayer game.

[shadow temple]

its literaly a singleplay game. you cant bring anyone else into your game its just you.

your argument is so weak lol

[surreal crypt]

I'm going by the argument of pulling the server that Bob made

Can't play your singleplayer game now huh?

[shadow temple]

that doesnt mean its not a single player game lol

your using an argument that makes no sense becuase you know you lost

[surreal crypt]

His argument. Not mine. Just going by the logic.

Of course it's a singleplayer game lmao.

[shadow temple]

its not logic it makes literally no sense

[surreal crypt]

#other-games message

ZZZ runs on a server

Try running ZZZ offline and come back to me.

[shadow tartan]

Arguing over opinions when it comes to categorisation is so stupid

It's there to filter things...

It's 2025

[surreal crypt]

Yes

[shadow tartan]

[surreal crypt]

[shadow tartan]

Save the children eh

[surreal crypt]

Wait are we talking about something else?

[shadow tartan]

No

[surreal crypt]

Oh ok. Wasn't sure where that came from.

Just an expression

[surreal crypt]

Espression ☕

[shadow tartan]

Please, in my veins

[surreal crypt]

Inject caffeine?

[shadow tartan]

Give it to me

[shadow tartan]

Yes!

[surreal crypt]

On it

[shadow tartan]

Wake me up from this reality

[surreal crypt]

Wake me up inside

[shadow tartan]

Wake me up

This all stemmed from Helldivers being in the single player category
Solo runs are all over the internet
I play solo a lot
I know @inland oasis does too because he has no friends

Is solo not a single player?

[tranquil glen]

I warframe solo does that mean its singleplayer no

[shadow tartan]

Yes

[inland oasis]

Yes it’s capable of being single player

[shadow tartan]

Then it gets categorised

It's that simple

[tranquil glen]

Ok turn of the internet then see how its singleplayer then

[shadow tartan]

It can be single and multi player

That's a different category

[inland oasis]

Internet doesn’t equal multiplayer

It means a server

[shadow tartan]

If you're relying on cloud data

[inland oasis]

Dragons dogma 2, is singleplayer but requires online iirc

[surreal crypt]

Yeah, you can set up an invite only lobby. Unless you specifically send an invite, you can play solo.

[inland oasis]

Still singleplayer though

[shadow tartan]

That's my setting

[tranquil glen]

Imo just cause you can solo doesnt mean its singleplayer, fallout not 76 is all singleplayer
Hitman3 is singleplayer but requires online for achievement yet works offline
Skyrim only with mods and internet is multiplayer

[inland oasis]

Using mods makes Skyrim multiplayer????

[surreal crypt]

There is such an option to play games solo even if the game is multiplayer. Take Mario Kart for instance. Yeah, you could play the game with others, but it can be enjoyed by yourself (and in most cases, is how you unlock the characters)

[inland oasis]

It’s at its core a singleplayer game just cuz you modded it, doesn’t change what it still is.

Otherwise fallout 4 with mods isnt then

[surreal crypt]

Monster Hunter is also intended for multiplayer, but I've played like 90% of Rise solo, but that's because my dummy self got into it when Wilds came out. The other 10% is with friends, but that's because I got the option to.

Otherwise, all the progress I've done is solo

Like if you wanna play Helldivers 2 alone, or any other multiplayer game that allows custom lobbies, go ahead. The argument about whether a game needs to be online or not for it to be singleplayer or not is silly.

[tranquil glen]

Fall out together, which was going to be made by Skyrim together mod team kind of left in the dust and I don’t think it’s publicly accessible

[inland oasis]

thats a specific MP mod then, not mods in general lol

[tranquil glen]

I dont know of other mods for that game that do multiplayer

[inland oasis]

they dont. thats why i said its a very specific mod and situation lol

[surreal crypt]

I was gonna say, "Wanna lock in together? We can be the coffee crew." but I haven't played in months, and my level is low lol.

[shadow tartan]

I was supposed to send you my friend code but I got lost in Death Stranding 2

I'll DM you when I'm home

[surreal crypt]

Nah, it's good. I haven't had much of an itch tbh.

One day it'll come back

I also got studying and job hunting to do

[pliant iris]

have fun!

@wild storm
cRPG means computer Role Playing Game. It's a term from the time when things like that were happening mainly on a table top using pen and paper e.g. D&D

These days it usually refers to game following similar formula, but not limited to computers

Usually party based RPG with focus on story and system

E.g. Pillars of Eternity, Owlcat's Pathfinder games, 40k Rogue Trader or to certain degree Baldur's Gate 3

[dry copper]

I can just see the helicopter parent telling their kid to stop being so violent because games make you violent and then turning around and saying unironically "I identify as an attack helicopter"

@idle saffron need to play in Dark Rot mode, first I need to message Slater and tell him how fantastic that was

[orchid fox]

Please be a joke

[austere lance]

Nope, shit was WILD

Easily the coolest part of the game so far

I got an insane greatsword blueprint out of it too

@orchid fox I wasn't expecting it at all, that mfer laid down some crazy combos and pushed my parry skills a lot

[orchid fox]

Lol

Can imagine

[winter yew]

Has anyone here played Outer Wilds (not to be confused with Outer Worlds)? I’m a BIG fan of any space related media but I’m still on the fence about purchasing it, keep spoils to a minimum please

Probably the main reason why I’m on the fence is cause I’m afraid it’s just a “walking simulator” type of game

[idle saffron]

It's a mystery

I'd say, if you are a fan of space and sci-fi, odds are high you'll like it

[winter yew]

I think this was the push I needed haha, thank you Gleam!
Have you personally played it?

[idle saffron]

I have, yep

I'm a space nerd, so if it involves space even in a small way it's likely I've checked it out

Without saying too much, with this one I liked the various ways things can turn out

[winter yew]

May I ask, what’s your top 5 (or 10 if you feel like going crazy with it) space-related games? No particular order

[idle saffron]

No particular order:
NMS
Elite Dangerous
Space Engineers
The Outer Wilds
Outer Worlds
Kerbal
Dead Space (I'm counting it!)
Chorus
X4 Foundations
Eve Online
Everspace
Starfield (yep I said it)

Haven't played Everspace 2 yet, but it's on the list

[winter yew]

Absolutely wonderful taste 🙂‍↕️ I would definitely count Dead Space and I can’t blame you for Starfield LOL as another space nerd, it’s hard not to like despite its flaws 😛

[idle saffron]

It does so much very well, just not everything we would have wanted with the loading screens

But I can build a ship and then just float in space and enjoy the view? That's solid for me

[winter yew]

I know you didn’t ask :> but I can’t help but gush about one of my recent favorites: Astroneer, it’s such a simple but delightful game

[idle saffron]

Fffff

How did I leave that off?

Tremendous fun, bit grindy true, but fun for all that

[winter yew]

Hahaha hard to choose when there’s so many

[idle saffron]

Any others that are glaring omissions from my list?

Chorus

[winter yew]

Oh man. How have I not heard of Chorus?? This is immediately going onto my ever growing plan-to-play list 😅

What fucking visuals

[idle saffron]

It has (maybe) the best dog fighting I've played

The control you end up having over your ship in combat is so tasty

[winter yew]

You immediately have my attention, I might have to snag it during the next Steam sale :3

[idle saffron]

This one is a pure combat game, you won't be exploring on foot - though there are things to find - you typically don't need to venture too far from the current goal

That said, you can freely roam about it's rather large hub areas

[winter yew]

Don’t mind that one bit especially if it’s offering out of the world dog fights and spectacular visuals 🙂‍↕️

[idle saffron]

A little curve to the combat - you don't start out a pure badass, but you don't take long to get there either

[winter yew]

Is there extensive ship customization/upgrading? 👀

[idle saffron]

Lots of weapon and tech upgrades - your ship is ultra special though, you won't be customizing its looks - but that will make sense

[winter yew]

I just found out there’s a demo - I’m so tempted to jump out of bed and try it out even though it’s 4am 😅 I already have a feeling it’ll be an immediate purchase though just by the Steam page alone hahah

[idle saffron]

Weeeeeeee!

Demo will still be there though lol

[winter yew]

I gotta thank you for introducing to my next hyperfixation game (whenever my fixation on nms dies down a little… though I don’t see that happening soon lol)

[idle saffron]

A pleasure

I didn't put the Star Wars Jedi games in there, because you don't ever do anything specifically just in space, at all - though I do love them

I should have put Star Wars Outlaws though - excellently done space sections, and you can fly freely about

[tranquil glen]

nope dont care to not my style of game

[inland oasis]

i just finished playing a bit of that 😄

[tranquil glen]

I dont like top down colonist type games unless its automation related and afaik rimworld isnt

[inland oasis]

yea not rly, i mean you could setup a fully automated factory i think eventually but thats like, way endgame

its basically imo a 2D kenshi lol

[balmy plaza]

Have you got the new dlc?

[inland oasis]

i do 😄 i love the gravship scenario

[balmy plaza]

I spent about a month ingame trying to deal with a broken down terraformer lol

[inland oasis]

it took me FOREVER to get vacstone cuz it takes vacstone to upgrade ur thrusters

then i saw shuttles...

[balmy plaza]

Now I've taken a neanderthal prisoner and I'm extracting his DNA so I can roid up one of my colonists (ik it's biotech but it's still cool af)

I used the default scenario so I haven't even reached orbit yet 😂

[inland oasis]

i modded mine to have warhammer shit into it, i have 4 colonists, just a mixed bag of space marines, all with plasma rifles. i just been travelling the rimworld, landing on people bases, taking over till the mechs find me, then repeat

[balmy plaza]

That's gotta be sick with the new dlc ngl

[inland oasis]

had to reload cuz mechs got me unexpectedly while i was caravaning to a ancient bunker

always the worst timing

the space marine armors are designed properly to be vacsealed and everything for in space

[balmy plaza]

I might have to try that next playthrough

I wonder if there's an elder scrolls mod

[inland oasis]

i nuked my modlist and its already inflated to proabbly like 50+ mods again xD

[balmy plaza]

Esp since the expanded fiction goes into space stuff loosely

[inland oasis]

getting a stable modlist is all part of the difficulty of the game. a game within a game

I wonder what RBLX's share distribution is right now

Christ...The share distribution of that company is fucking disgusting

Vanguard Group, FMR LLC, Blackrock Inc

[mental rose]

The fact that Nancy Pelosi's husband bought 10k Roblox shares the day AFTER the company went public (allegedly) is pretty damn sus.

[fleet moat]

They are pretty disgusting at so many levels

[dry copper]

We're talking about the oldest corrupt trade and stock markets on the planet

[dry copper]

Allegedly...You might as well be saying "Everything in this sentence is a lie"

You can't say it's a fact and then say it's alleged at the same time.

Those two terms are contradictions

[mental rose]

Oh... oops.

[dry copper]

Also, the stocks for RBLX are public.

Hence publically traded

Looks like Vanguard has the largest amount of shares.

Even then the distribution is so watered down that getting a majority would cost billions.

Vanguard owns 57.5million shares

That's about 25%

Gross. Berkshire Hathaway Inc has shares of Roblox

That's warren buffet

Visa has shares of Roblox

Meta

General Electric

Alifuckingbaba

Alphabet!

Oh wait

I'm lying

None of these necessarily own Roblox...

I was on the wrong tab. These are shares of FMR

FMR owns 25% of Roblox

Check out how many people have bought and sold rblx

[fleet moat]

I expect to see a bunch of calls on their stock value

[mental rose]

Is this the norm with public video game devs/publishers, or more like an anomaly?

Because that's a lot of different companies

That's what happens when corporations buy game developers.

i have the dlc but still stuck on 1.5 till the rest of my mods are updated

[inland oasis]

yea i had a HUGE purge and now only went 1.6 ones specifically

[quaint escarp]

i cant i need my ratkins

shes the best story teller

i like peaceful but not too peaceful

[inland oasis]

ohhhh i thought it was a faction mod

its a story teller too?

i usually play on adventurous too

think thats what its called

one below community builder

[quaint escarp]

yeah its a race mod with storytellers

[inland oasis]

ahhh nice, havent used those.

[quaint escarp]

btw if u use a decent amount of mods i recommend using rimsort

its a mod manager

my rimworld stopped working on steam deck so had to figure out what updates bricked it

[dry copper]

Charlie is getting weaker!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BbQBw-8v-i4

[inland oasis]

ngl, i only use the in game auto sort, rimHUD, and HugsLib. also RimPy, idk what rly for. they just sound important xD and then from there im suuuuuper picking manually adding mods already

prolly back up to like 40-50 ish mods

[quaint escarp]

rimpy is ancient

rimsort is the new version of it

and has a much faster texture conversion

rimpy hasnt been touched in 3 years so someone made a newer better one

it also has better autosort

ur missing out on a lot of really good qol mods that the rimworld devs havent added yet it if thats all u have lol

a few of the mods got turned into base game features

just sort by subscriptions in the workshop

[quaint escarp]

i have 362

[inland oasis]

that just sounds daunting if anything were to go wrong xD

[quaint escarp]

it used to run on my laptop

and steam deck

i think some of the updates to the workshop mods made it stop

it works fine on my regular pc tho

[inland oasis]

i dont really run alot of gamechanger ones. alot of warhammer added stuff, traits expanded and alot of the expanded mods. VOID, infinite skill lvling, QOL shit mostly

i am using a reaaaaalllyyy nice texture mod atm

[quaint escarp]

yeah a lot of qol

which one

i just use the hd one

[inland oasis]

oh yeah i use that

[inland oasis]

i use "graphics setter" too

again idk why for some of em

i probably have a few redundancies

[quaint escarp]

use that too

[inland oasis]

but i only get 1 error on the log

[quaint escarp]

i get a list

but

the game runs

and i can play saves

soooo

[inland oasis]

ive had mods that were labelled "incompat" work and ones for 1.6 not work with 1.6

shits always a gamble

[quaint escarp]

yeah theres some 1.5 that havent been updated that still work

for 1.6

im using a 1.4 mod for 1.5

[inland oasis]

i been getting the "error loading map" error and it absolutely breaks my game into a state i have to task mamager kill it.

[quaint escarp]

easiest way to fix the error is to make a 1.5 folder so it stops throwing errors

[inland oasis]

something been triggering it randomly. but idk whta cuz i can keep a save going for like 2-3 irl days

then poof

[quaint escarp]

try rimsort the autosort might not be great

the in game one just does alphabetical

[inland oasis]

really? it does have some form of functionality

aside from alphabetical

it will order dependencies

[quaint escarp]

oh wait

[inland oasis]

like my warhammer ones, it was mad at me for having the armor and weapons before the core, and obv, it switched em itself

[quaint escarp]

u do know that

having the rimpy mod

doesnt do anything on its own

u need the github program

to actually use the library lol

[inland oasis]

well then, ive never actually used it then xD

[quaint escarp]

yeah lol

the in game one is just alphabetical

so yeah

keep the mod tho

[inland oasis]

it has a very minor order system

[quaint escarp]

pretty sure rimsort still uses it

load order helps a lot to keep things smooth

thank goodness someone decided to make a new one

[inland oasis]

when the modlist gets to this point and you wait 5-10 minutes every launch

[quaint escarp]

dont click on the screen

[inland oasis]

oh this is an evertime occurance lol. i just ignore it till it finally loads

[quaint escarp]

ngl ur on 1.6

it should be much faster

rimsort also has texture converter

speeds up loading a lot

[inland oasis]

it wouldve been the same thing

[inland oasis]

i just press subscribe from steam lmao. i do not understand github pages

idek if this shits the right thing

[quaint escarp]

it is

[inland oasis]

and itd go where?

im assuming in mods. lol

but im typically wrong

[quaint escarp]

no

its a separate program

u just need to launch the exe

[inland oasis]

am i blind?

[quaint escarp]

did u dl the windows zip

or the linux one

[dry copper]

Should've called it Rimjob to shit on the horrible loading efficiency of Rimworld

[inland oasis]

i have no idea.... i picked the top of this thing

no idea what im looking for

i hate github pages

[dry copper]

[quaint escarp]

Those are different branches for diff operating systems

[inland oasis]

bruh

[dry copper]

[inland oasis]

i was looking for one named windows x86 only -.-

[dry copper]

Yeah that doesn't happen anymore

[quaint escarp]

im salty they didnt make an arch linux version

bc thats what the steam deck uses

i need to use an aur repository from someone else that compiled it for arch

[dry copper]

Could be worse. They could just give you the source code and tell you to compile it yourself.

[quaint escarp]

yeah i tried

had too many issues

steam deck also doesnt use the most up to date arch linux

@inland oasis should look like this when launched

[inland oasis]

said it couldnt find some shit with my mod folder idek

[quaint escarp]

go to settings

file settings

[inland oasis]

going thru steam, browse files, and in mods, has a notepad file says "place mods here" but thats it

[quaint escarp]

and select game location

[quaint escarp]

hit autodetect @inland oasis

[inland oasis]

does nothing

i cleared them, did auto detect, and it puts

idk why it wouldnt before

[quaint escarp]

check the folders

they might not have content inside

oh wait

u need the 3rd line

[inland oasis]

im so confused i cannot find where my mods are stored. all of the ones i subbed to i did so IN GAME with steam workshop. BUT when i browse files where my game is installed my mods folder is clear and empty

[quaint escarp]

bc thats the path

urs should be exactly like it

should be in ur program files

[inland oasis]

but when im IN GAME i have all my mods active

[quaint escarp]

it cant detect those yet

[inland oasis]

well i seem to of gotten somewhere as its detecting my game at least

[quaint escarp]

workshop mods are stored on steam folders

not the game

steam mods location should say workshop

[inland oasis]

this? lmao

[quaint escarp]

content

and the numbers i have

[inland oasis]

in content i have 1 folder with some numbers, and inside that, i have a ton of folders named random numbers too

[quaint escarp]

othats the folder then

the rest are the mods

[inland oasis]

ahh ok

so im guessing i need to put that into the "steam mods location" bar in settings?

instead of the empty one i have it on now

[quaint escarp]

yeah

[inland oasis]

gotcha

[quaint escarp]

weird it didnt autodetect

[inland oasis]

never wouldve known those numbers were my mods

rimworlds ALWAYS gave me file structure issues idek why

[quaint escarp]

@inland oasis when ur done sorting and save make sure to hit this

it converts the textures so its much faster to load and def will help since u have texture mods

[inland oasis]

i think i got it all situated now. optimizing it atm

0 errors, 1 warning, 136 mods

[quaint escarp]

rimpy has this option but it took an hour

whats the warning

[inland oasis]

uh, i clicked it and it just i guess fixed itself. idek

used to be this

the only 1.5 one i have i think

[quaint escarp]

if it still loads then ur fine

[inland oasis]

but its a dependency for another one i have

i dont think ive changed any parts in a year or 2

[coarse swift]

Negative

It's the CPU this time

Could be the ram I replaced but I'm leaning more towards cpu based on logs

I forget the exact codes but it was something with cacheheirarchy error

Which is supposedly common on r7 5800x

Solution was either undervolt, which I do, or RMA till you get one that works
CPU is 3 years old, no RMA possible

But I'm just getting random bsods or hard resets occasionally

Can't play heretic/Hexen without a hard reset outta nowhere

[dry copper]

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/4tnLekg-FNI

[quaint escarp]

i mean if it started when u replaced it sounds like it could be the ram

[hollow perch]

Sometimes RAM needs to be reseated like once or twice before it decides to work lol, I've had to do stuff like that a couple times

[coarse swift]

I replaced this ram a long time ago

Was having similar issues before the ram replacement too

Ram replacement fixed a black screen flicker issue I had for a while but it came back again

[quaint escarp]

ngl u have had a decent amount of issues

did they just send u all the defect parts

[coarse swift]

Remember I went thru several different mobos before finally getting a good one
Did the same with the amd gpus

So yeah, I'm getting some real bad luck on parts

the worst thing that happened htis year for me was my pc decided to shit itself after a bios change and all i needed to do was reset the cmos battery

had to take out my gpu to reach it tho

what are u going to upgrade to

intel or amd

well what do u have now

[coarse swift]

Probably staying AMD but not 100% certain
I have r7 5800x atm

Saw suggestions to go for a 5700x3D for other people but uh

Amd just stopped shipping those

[quaint escarp]

whats the socket

[coarse swift]

AM4

I figure if I'm upgrading its either 5800x3D or biting the bullet for full AM5

Which I'm not thrilled about but I've got a credit card about to fully pay off and plenty of room to eat the cost if I have to

[quaint escarp]

full am5 would require going thru the whole process of new parts and then seeing if they all work

[coarse swift]

Yea I know

Mobo, cpu, ram, probably would have to make sure the block fits too

[quaint escarp]

i bit the bullet 2 years ago

block should fit

even the old one

amd has been pretty good

[coarse swift]

Could be my chance to explore new towers too

I've been really wanting a tower that's got the usbs and power button on the bottom right, facing me

[quaint escarp]

do u still have the power issue or no

[coarse swift]

And I saw some too

[coarse swift]

Yea

We haven't moved yet

[quaint escarp]

i would just get a usb hub

[coarse swift]

No no

I want the power button there too

One sec I can find an example

[quaint escarp]

on the side right

[coarse swift]

https://a.co/d/42tgD25

Just like that

[quaint escarp]

why not that one

[coarse swift]

Micro atx

[quaint escarp]

ah

corsairs got a one thats on the bottom

but front facing

[coarse swift]

Yea I've seen those

Y'know the ones I really find neat

The thermaltake fish tank looking one

And the hyte y60 of something like that

[quaint escarp]

honestly tho u could just hook up one of those 3rd party power buttons

[coarse swift]

But I don't have the desk space

[quaint escarp]

like the one for nuclear switch

ive always wanted one

its kinda cheesy

i got my case under my desk anyway

elevated tho

[coarse swift]

There's only carpet under my desk

[quaint escarp]

desk has a built in pc place

[coarse swift]

Lucky

[quaint escarp]

only wish it could slide out

[coarse swift]

I have a glass corner desk, really would like a wood one with a hutch tho

[quaint escarp]

i got scammed twice looking for one

got my refunds tho

hows the gpu

do u have the same one still

[coarse swift]

4070 ti super

At first it was great, then the fan got noisy because I calibrated it once

Only slightly noisy, it's a bearing issue

I don't notice it much now

[tranquil glen]

https://tenor.com/view/hello-tim-and-moby-brainpop-hello-gamers-gamer-gif-24183675

[coarse swift]

However Fancontrol fucked itself recently so it's now noisier

[quaint escarp]

i have a case fan with a bearing issue and im too lazy to switch it out

it rattles sometimes

[coarse swift]

I could RMA the GPU still

[quaint escarp]

am6 is coming out soon tho

[coarse swift]

But idk if I wanna chance it still being noisy or worse when its performance is fine now

[coarse swift]

I don't think I got 3 years chief

[quaint escarp]

its like 1

[coarse swift]

Wtf

Mobile app tends to "stretch" small attachments

But if you send them as a media link the embed should look the same as on desktop

The worst thing that happened to me this year is my mom almost died again

To top it off, she still has another issue since leaving the hospital. A paronychia that doesn't seem to want to go away...even with an aggressive application of antibiotics.

I have to keep reminding myself
"Count your blessings, not the curse. For all the bad it could always be worse."

[dry copper]

Games getting weird in their violence now...

Love the swing community. I don't think I've seen a swing dance troupe that isn't super supportive at all levels of dance.

@idle saffron
Sorry for the @ but I had another question about favorite space games - are you a fan of Metroid?

[idle saffron]

I'm not actually - not a big fan of the metroid style of gameplay loop

I think I burned out on them years and years ago and the joy never returned

[feral ginkgo]

https://youtu.be/9dUz0CGu_V8?si=QKXbeZiKRTTRo9ht

They truly deserve what’s coming to the money hungry delusional ones at the top, how many kid needs to suffer to this “place” to Roblox get banned, how long is left for the truth to overwhelm them and Roblox finally realise they were wrong and they need to pay the price for it in prison, because they responsible what’s happening in their “game”!

[orchid fox]

"no roblox dating will save the company"

that the ceo even considers the possibility of allowing sexual content is actually vile.....

[tranquil glen]

Bruh the fuck thats even worse than allowing just dating which is bad enough

[orchid fox]

he stated in an interview its possible to be allowed later

💀

[tranquil glen]

Gameplay loop, is it not linear?

[tranquil glen]

Eugh wow

[orchid fox]

his brain timed out being asked on parentsd concern

then disregarded the notion entirely

[tranquil glen]

Wheres the interview located

[orchid fox]

afaik verge

https://youtu.be/9dUz0CGu_V8?t=1576 timestamp

trade

"i would never rule out sexual content"

"but not for now"

[feral ginkgo]

And in 2023 they bring up possibility of dating.

That’s in the No Text To Speech’s video too.

[orchid fox]

yep anmd the fact tooth and nail to not pay a sexual exploitation vicctim

great big company isnt it

[feral ginkgo]

yes

There’s legal cases now In the USA, against that company started by Lawyers and a Senator

[tranquil glen]

Wouldnt be surprised if so Staff get arrested within the next decade

[orchid fox]

they havwe what? 3 us senators on their ass now

[tranquil glen]

Good

[orchid fox]

actual stted initiated fines

not just lawsuits

[mental rose]

Didn't the head online security person or smth dunk all company shares?

Prolly prepping to leave ship

[orchid fox]

not seen any of that source or report please

[tranquil glen]

Also interesting that thus far i dont think weve heard news from the top investors

[orchid fox]

we have not

[mental rose]

This is as far in as I'm going to these news sites

[orchid fox]

hes jumping the burniung boat allright

[feral ginkgo]

We forgot to mention another thing, they banned Shlep because that’s bad for the stocks, if that goes into the new that a Roblox Predator is arrested by Shlep that creates news that they don’t want, because they want to roll in the money and that’s bad for the stocks, and they happy with the money the greedy scums destroying kids life’s for money.

[dry copper]

That's not a big sale

[orchid fox]

i mean yes but still sus

[tranquil glen]

I mean that is implied vigilantism is bad for a company making money of predators

[dry copper]

Not sus at all. Thats less than would be sus

[orchid fox]

the fact they liken schlep to preadtors uuuuuuuh is a mega stretch

[dry copper]

20k shares is sus. 6k is an investment strategy

Dipshits in trade do that just to turn a profit after the shit picks up and the shares lose a little value

Happens all the time.

They sell high, then buy when the shares drop

Have you checked his regular activity?

I see him doing this like every month

[mental rose]

So they sold a bit of stock because they know it's gonna start a downward-trend because of the current controversy.

[dry copper]

He might be trying to slowly divest his stock without impacting the stock value

Check his regular trades. They're similar

He only has until 2029 to buy stock according to his stock options.

I suspect this is very much an intentional strategy to maximize profit on his stock

He averages 2 trades a month at 6k of sales. He has approx 301k shares left. It would take about 2.5 years to unload it all without impacting share value.

Given how long he has left of buy options, this just looks like a strategy to maximize profit on the shares while offloading them all before 2029.

A Rule 10b5-1 plan is a written trading plan that allows corporate insiders to sell company stock while potentially avoiding insider trading liability. These plans allow insiders to establish a pre-arranged schedule for selling shares, even during periods when they might otherwise be restricted from trading due to possessing material non-public information.

[feral ginkgo]

The pre-arranged part is interesting

in this case.

[dry copper]

Not unusual for someone to set up automatic sales to avoid being bottlenecked if they suspect the company may ever do something or get entangled in something controversial

People do the same thing for businesses that don't deal with children.

It's security against loss in the event someone fucks up

Dude is hedging his bets

This story was an interesting read from yesterday

https://www.tradingview.com/news/gurufocus:658bdb92b094b:0-roblox-stock-tanks-after-surge-of-lawsuits-and-global-bans/

This will need to stay on the front page for a couple weeks before the stocks tank enough for the company to do anything about it.

The site projects a 20%+ loss year over year by next year

[feral ginkgo]

The countries that banned Roblox started with Qatar they did the right thing

[dry copper]

That will put a lot of pressure on the US Government to take Roblox seriously and investigate them independently

[tranquil glen]

Good
