This game looks so good
and nice meele btw

[winter yew]

yes, it is on my want to play list
my pc cannot run this game sadly

Well time to fight evil genocide lady

Again

Side note another gun max master

[formal canopy]

Nuh uh I’m good

That game looks really boring

[supple glen]

I understand perhaps if it had subway surfer running above it it would be more enjoyable

[tranquil glen]

Dont yall love it when the pools of water in skyrim flicker

[supple glen]

Glitches and Bethesda go hand in hand lol

Did you know the vampire werewolf hybrid glitch still works

[tranquil glen]

nope, werewolves dont seem very buff of a use to me

Well, being one

[supple glen]

There's almost no cons to being a werewolf besides a throwaway line about smelling bad lol

Well not having thr dawnguard dlc would be a con but I assume you do

[barren sparrow]

What if

someone just isn't a dog person?

Or would rather watch the paint dry than engage with companions questline

[supple glen]

Then I would say describing your avoidance as not a buff instead of that is poor word choice lol

[barren sparrow]

If you look at it that way there is also no benefits either. You only trade resting buff for immunity to diseases which can be cured with a potion or at any shrine iirc

Warewolf form isn't strong by any means and is pretty limited. You can't loot or interact while shapeshifted, which makes it rather inconvenient to use.

It is also slow, but tries to shift your camera perspective to make it look like you move faster, it always threw me off

[supple glen]

There's layers to buffs and situational uses though as this is a open world rpg where as buffs are varied
Werewolf sprint faster than regular players sprint, good for survival mode
If you use the glitch you remove the anti sunlight negative side of vampries

[barren sparrow]

Werewolf sprint faster than regular players sprint

By how much?

[supple glen]

Werewolf mode good for surviving cold in survival mode and/ or frostfall mod too

[barren sparrow]

Bc I won't belive it's a lot

[supple glen]

I can't tell you a exact percentage how fast wereolf sprit or even the vampire lord glide is aha

[barren sparrow]

They might be faster but it always felt like the animation and camera movement pretends it's moving with greater speed while you don't move particularly fast

As if character and camera are moving through a liquid idk

[supple glen]

I agree their overselling it to make it feel like it's super faster instead of just a little faster

[inland oasis]

wider FOV's typically tend to inherently give a "faster" feel. too much and you get a fisheye type effect. maybe thats what they do? back the fov out some

[barren sparrow]

Yeah, that's part of what happens

[inland oasis]

105 degrees to 110 is my limit, and at 110 things start "feeling" rly fast. lol

alot of default settings start at 80-90

[formal canopy]

You like subway surfers that much? lol

[supple glen]

Yes that is exactly what I meant 🫡

I should've died here but I somehow bounced his shot

[tranquil glen]

Which doesnt matter if can just exploit anyhow to improve speed via alchemy enchanting

Also for fps i prefer high fov thanks to things like roblox arsenal and COD games (120-140), but lycanthropy itsef has no use

To me

[supple glen]

Well no both perks exist of the respective systems simultaneously

But truth me told I don't even like skyrim I'll take almaur, dogma just about anything over it so I'd be poor at defending it lol

Lol be, not me, but funny auto correct

[tranquil glen]

Yes but the only perk Lycanthropy has atleast from what ik, is disease immunity, which can be fixed via shrines and potions.. atleast vampirism has Night vision and “control”

And no i dont mean eldar vampirism i mean basic

[supple glen]

You have to look at more then flat stats
Lycanthropy cancels out the cons of vampirism

[tranquil glen]

Like what, obtaining vampirism?

What cons aside from original obtain does lycanthropy cancel

[supple glen]

Like any flaw or debuff is null and void

Walk around in the sun regain stamina ect

[tranquil glen]

Which can be buffed outright with restoration glitch

So what if i have no stamina regain if i have 8 million stamina

[supple glen]

Glitches do not void gameplay systems but were back to two both systems have their perks independently they don't cancel eachother out

[tranquil glen]

You just said they did right here

And above

[supple glen]

I'm using it in a different context your claiming system a dont matter because system b exists

I said this system can benefit the flaws of this system

Your debate skills are kinda poor lol

[tranquil glen]

They do void if they simply over power the debuff entirely especially something as simple as have no regen for an extremely absurd stamina

[supple glen]

It's just a simple case of a and b both being true in the argument you're making of restoration can do it too

[tranquil glen]

Also have stated only what one thing Lycanthropy does, when i asked for all perks that cancel out basic vampirism

[supple glen]

And i gave a true answer eveything, there is no negative vamprie perks the glitch makes you human when not in vampire lord form

[tranquil glen]

Not what i asked tho

[supple glen]

It sufficiently answers what you asked
It solves the cons of vampirism by removing them

[tranquil glen]

And from what ik removes the pros too

[supple glen]

Not all

You mostly want the lord form too anyway

[tranquil glen]

Why

[supple glen]

You still have illusion boost level one vampire stuff ect

It's the meat and potatoes of being a vampire wym lol

[tranquil glen]

Thats also from basic vampirism tho no?

Why would i want eldar form at all if i get decent enough perks from the basic vampires

[supple glen]

Why are you attempting to separate types of vampirism dawnguard overhauled the system lol

[tranquil glen]

Cause they are as stated within the dlc from the loyals?

Only thing i care for dawnguard is the archery

[supple glen]

Well there's not much of a difference outside the form so I guess it's fine dawnguard still changes how being a normal vampire works too

[tranquil glen]

Then explain the difference

[supple glen]

I'd direct you to the patch notes and the wiki if you need a difference on the games systems it would be pointless to ask me here lol

[tranquil glen]

Then im just gonna say I dont give a fuck at all then 😂

[supple glen]

I already pulled up the wiki to confirm there was minimal differences in vampire forms if you dont use the lord lol you can use the wiki to xD

[tranquil glen]

If u arent gonna give the difference in text or show what cons the lycanthrope cancles out why would i care to use the system at all aside from basic for night vision and illusion buff, and free sucky suck

[supple glen]

I already did, it cancels out every vampire con by making you human again.

If you want specifics we both gave acess to the same wiki lol

[tranquil glen]

You forget that i asked what cancelled out what and never said it, and i ask you directly not the wiki, dont be siri or other ai

[supple glen]

Exactly you asked what and the true answer is eveything
If I spilled a cup of water and a box of crayons got wet would I say the box of crayons or list every colour
For the record this is the 5th time we've ran this circle lol

[tranquil glen]

And you keep saying it cancels everything, what do you explicitly mean, THE ENTIRE lycanthrope perk chain cancels out all vampirism cons?

I get that it cancels out all but WHAT DOES

[supple glen]

I've clarified previously in the conversation already but I will do so a second time yes, just having lyca cancels out the cons of vampirism

[tranquil glen]

LIKE FUCKIN WHAT

[supple glen]

Every con of vampirism

[tranquil glen]

From what of lycanthrope

[supple glen]

We mjst ran in a circle for a 6th time after I pointed out we did it 5 times let's stop here and just agree you don't like werewolfs and if you want to learn more you'll Google the info lol

[tranquil glen]

Alright, alright u goin down that path aight time to delete lycanthropy then

Mod it the fuck out

[tranquil glen]

Because this

[supple glen]

You can do that I think there use to be one before dawnguard

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/165117

[tranquil glen]

Ok having talked with ai overview seems that keeping up with feeding and restoration glitch will cancel out any cons from vampirism, can stay unmodded, and never need to touch Lycanthropy

[supple glen]

You talked with ai over looking at the wiki lol

[tranquil glen]

What was it the narrator said of grinch? He wouldnt touch hum with a 39.5ft pole?

[tranquil glen]

Yea cause i aint reading 3 separate pages

[supple glen]

All ai does is skim info you introduced a middleman into your quest for info aha

[tranquil glen]

my quest? I aint really be questing wdym

[supple glen]

It's just a saying like sum you set out to do could be as simple as idk get a drink

[barren sparrow]

You should be questing, this is the sign you were waiting for, go on a quest

[inland oasis]

Quest: do not quest.

Good luck

[winter yew]

U got switch 1 or 2?

[supple glen]

Both but 2 is sorta a scam
Keycards
Smaller battery than s1

Just my top 2 issues they're more

[winter yew]

I see

Have u ever thought of giving a try to steam deck or any other handheld?

[supple glen]

What would be the point?

I already game on PC why buy a handheld with no physical media

Getting people to buy a deck over a PC or laptop the best scam yet

[winter yew]

I think everyone have their own need to enjoy games

Because I really want a deck so I can play while I am at bed or outside house

Playing at desktop is becoming a pain since I have to work over there for long hours and I don't really feel playing games

So I don't think deck is a scam

[icy cosmos]

I was going to buy a deck but now im waiting for the steam machine.

[tranquil glen]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-hello-wave-gif-7674489298405380241

[supple glen]

What they really need to do is make a switch lite 2

[tranquil glen]

What they needed to do was call switch “WII U 2”

[supple glen]

Everytime I hear about the steam deck it's a did you know I'm vegan situation lol

[steel grail]

There was a period when I spent most of my time commuting and basically just sitting at one place. I don't think i'd have enjoyed getting home only to sit at another place and game

Does xbox shove ads on your face?

saw a post on reddit

[split ridge]

Xbox displays ads in the operating system for the consoles.

[winter yew]

like how
when you turn on your xbox at that time?
or when u leave any game and you are at library at that time?

or just ad that is lying side of your screen in library

[split ridge]

Sometimes it will display them when you log on but most ads display as titles right next to your games

[winter yew]

ohhh so is it annoying?

[split ridge]

It's not in the way but it's annoying when you spend like 500 bucks on a console and they throw ads on the side
I don't think the ps5 has ads like that and it's similarly priced

It's basically like windows lmao

[winter yew]

I rem ps5 did once and community raged so hard that sony said it was an error from their side

[winter yew]

oof

[feral ginkgo]

Here, you can decide it yourself.

[winter yew]

yeah windows

hmm
I never owned a console before but I like how xbox always put extra teraflops
and games look good on xbox more (for me tho)

Unexpected Bethesda Jank in Oblivion R...
For some inscrutable reason, it's coded to save to a "Documents/My Games" folder.
Fairly common, except it's hard coded to only use the C drive.
And it'll create new folders if they're located somewhere else.
Steam does not expect this, and won't sync saves in the extra folder.
Had to junction the stupid thing to my actual Documents folder before steam would start syncing saves.

I hate how they released it out of nowhere

I was 100% all my Bethesda games

I did Skyrim then oblivion and 5 days after I did everything and got bored of oblivion they release the remaster

It actually made me so upset

[supple glen]

It does the usual ruining of the art style / direction but besides that it awesome

Push the bloom to the max and call it remastered meme here

[verbal plume]

the more i play ds3, the more i question why people were so upset at summons in elden ring

there seems to be a lot of npc summons for boss fights and a lot of them kinda intertwine with the story so that's cool

[austere lance]

Which boss you on?

[verbal plume]

i think im coming up on midir here soon, i dont know if midir has a summon but the last boss i fought did

the two demons

yhorm has a npc summon, sister friede does

you can fight aldrich with anri but it's in her world or something i don't know exactly

https://tenor.com/view/joker-smile-villain-long-gun-gif-17427254

[steel grail]

No I mean midir as a boss is better off fighting solo cuz u can control the fight if u are solo. Having a summon(npc or otherwise) will make midir unpredictable and a pain in the neck

Not to mention he has one of largest health pool in the game so if u bring a summon that health pool will only increase

Which increases length of the fight and ur buffs will run out before having any meaningful impact

[obtuse reef]

To add onto this, you need to opt into it via the betas option on Steam

[supple glen]

Ac3 remaster is unironically best on switch

New mechanics old art style

And lighting Freakin orange simulator

[tranquil glen]

how long it take to load things smoothly tho

[obtuse reef]

I don’t think it changes unless you’re using an HDD

[tranquil glen]

they prolly removed the load scren textures

[verbal plume]

okay

midir isn't that bad actually, i almost got him first try

he just has a crazy amount of health

he also pretty much has every dragon moveset from elden ring lmao, so it's kinda easy to read him

[obtuse reef]

Correction, it doesn’t really change at all. The biggest cause behind the load times is apparently level generation

[tranquil glen]

i also dont think helldivers 2 is 154g

[obtuse reef]

It’s around that

On PC, at least

It’s much smaller on console because they didn’t bother duplicating files since they knew console users would all have very similar set ups

[tranquil glen]

and yet hitman 2 and several other games are bigger

[obtuse reef]

The size was still pretty absurd, especially if it could be reduced down to 23GB by just deleting duplicated files

[tranquil glen]

hitman 2 (2018, not 3+2)is 152gib

yea just delete the multiplayer and DSS lol

[supple glen]

I got sir hans bow on hardcore mode

[austere lance]

It was harder back in the day before ER released, there's a reason he basically set the template for dragons in that game 😆

[verbal plume]

yeah it's pretty cool honestly

[winter yew]

I feel like my English is broken

The game size was reduced
And it currently weights 23gb right?

Or 23gb got reduced from 154?

[obtuse reef]

You have the option to reduce the size from 154 to 23

[verbal plume]

midir defeated

me recording 5 mins of gameplay on ps5 only goes to where i got him to 1/3rd of his health left up to when i kill him lol

[tranquil glen]

hot take, 4 player coop pve games seem more like 4 solo players in the same instance mission nowadays than they did in the olden days
whether its skill based or how solo friendly the game is. ex: helldivers 2, 4 solos in the samething can speedrun missions
warframe itself almost everything can be solo farmed, and if not its from what ive seen quick quiet speedruns of non endurance

[hot sluice]

Update on the double freedom, its apparently actually 420 per shot and is displaying the volley shot damage for some reason.

Still, very nice shotgun overall

OK basically they're having a beta to test a reduction in the game size

[hot sluice]

The reason they duplicated files was related to HDD loading times but they've seemingly discovered that the hdd loading times aren't that much slower overall

Which given how slow HDD loading is vs SSD, is a miracle

[obtuse reef]

Yes, I mentioned that

[hot sluice]

Reducing a game by over 100gb is nuts honestly.

[tranquil glen]

people keep saying 154gb... ive not seen that at all, unless its not all stored in the steam files

[verbal plume]

almost got gael first try lol

[tranquil glen]

https://tenor.com/view/slave-knight-gael-dark-souls3-ringed-city-gif-24181378

[verbal plume]

lmao

i killed him and died

gael buff asf

[austere lance]

You get Midir? @verbal plume

Also Gael fight goes hard

[verbal plume]

it really did

and yes i beat him

was like a 10 minute fight

[austere lance]

You get Nameless?

[verbal plume]

had to get help with nameless lol

but yes

midir was just like

a dragon from elden ring with a million health

but his dark stuff is cool

oh that finally sent

3 minutes only got to there lmao

im glad i can say i beat ds3 now

the real challenge for me is sekiro, i gave up about an hour or so in

maybe two

[short stratus]

I just started playing BOTW on PC, and oh my gawd, what you can create with just 2 GB VRAM and 2 GB RAM, and 13 GB on disk puts a lot of PC games to shame (when compared to games for PC released in 2017 as well).

[split ridge]

How are you playing it on pc? Isn't that a nintendo exclusive?

[tranquil glen]

Emulator

I had at one point my brother emulate my last computer to do so, but kinda got bored in the first 5min LOL

Along with the fact every new interaction regardless of what, would freeze to load for a few seconds

[neat crescent]

I got so many people banned that Roblox had to send me this, ure welcome I guess 🤣🤣

[tranquil glen]

[tranquil glen]

And here i was last night thinking vermintidewas the same universe as darktide 🤣

[tranquil glen]

Not the same nope

Fantasy vs sci fi

[supple glen]

I'm not even a hater but it's never coming out lol
I was in highschool still when these things started skyblivion and skywind now I have a 401k and three kids lol

I might of even been in grade 8 lol

[tranquil glen]

skywind?

Ive never heard of skywind

[supple glen]

Morrowind in Skyrim engine

I wonder how kids today would handle no quest markers in morrowind lol

[tranquil glen]

the same way kids today handle elden ring?

🤣

cept far easier cause the bosses arent fucking dicks

[supple glen]

I never tried eldin ring tbh I like hard games I'll hop on XCOM ironman rn it just isn't appealing to me iduno why

[steel grail]

Tbf elden ring isn't really on "harder" side. Its a good introductory game to soulslike games imo

[snow zenith]

Did you actually watch the damn video

[supple glen]

I did
I've watched all the other videos and read all the other blog posts too
I'm buddies with a couple of the modders that quit but that's a irrelevant side story

[supple glen]

I've heard it's about as hard as dark souls 2 but easier than dark souls 1

[steel grail]

Cant speak for others but in my experience, its not. And it shouldn't even be compared to ds1 or 2 cuz they both were pretty linear like every other souls series game and u cant make ur char OP through a "prep-run" without using glitches or CE

But in ER on the other hand u can skip through most of content, find yourself a weapon, WA and other such tools and become a literal god killing machine and THEN start the run without ever having to use any glitches or anything

[supple glen]

I see 🤔 maybe I'll pick it up on its next sale

[steel grail]

If u have any interest in the genre then ER is pretty fun and u should at least try it once

Just make sure to stick to the storyline and skip all the optional bosses 😂

[supple glen]

Wouldn't hurt at a 80% off or more lol

If I paid anything more than that might as well get switch version aha

[wicked root]

@winter yew Here's some other things I worked on in another game

[mellow dune]

New darktide map intro

[winter yew]

Third photo giving off hall of whiterun vibes haha

[mellow dune]

Map very nice

In the background top right you can see the main Tertium hive city

[winter yew]

Is this warhammer?

[mellow dune]

Ya

Warhammer 40,000 Darktide

[wicked root]

Yes

[winter yew]

Haven’t gotten too much into it but the style looks great

[wicked root]

Speaking of Warhammer

[mellow dune]

Haven't played SM2

Been getting back into darktide

[winter yew]

I basically started on SM2

It was hard

[mellow dune]

Glad the voicelines still hold up in Darktide

[tranquil glen]

me when i thought vermintide was sci fi akin to darktide 🤣

[wicked root]

Lol

[snow zenith]

Skyblivion delay made me make a questionable decision

[mellow dune]

OH yea

On the topic of vermintide

Uh the Ogryn in Darktide got a new voice profile

And it's voiced by the same dude who does Victor Saltzpyre from Vermintide

[austere lance]

Didn't he already do a Psyker voice?

[tranquil glen]

is victor the swordsman or the knight in shining armor which i think kruber??

[mellow dune]

Witchhunter swordsman ya

[mellow dune]

Uhhh I'm not sure actually

None of them really sound like him

[tranquil glen]

ngl i kinda like witch hunter, not sure if i want to move onto his further careers tho

[mellow dune]

The G U N

Is hilarious

(I believe that's his 2nd career)

[tranquil glen]

at first i was confused on why theres 4 careers per class, then realized the last of each are paid lol

when i upgrade gear on one class, is that for the character or for the career, cause ik each career is the same character

[mellow dune]

It's a shared inv

So yea gear upgrades should transfer

[tranquil glen]

yes but if im upgrading say witch hunter does that upgrade follow through to the level 7 career for victor

[steel grail]

Destiny?

[tranquil glen]

warhammer

[steel grail]

Nvm scrolled down a bit and got the answer xD

[mellow dune]

So I was slightly financially irresponsible

peaked at your profile and saw you're playing kill it with fire 2
I absolutely love the game cover art LOL

[verbal plume]

boring

factory stuff is cool though

but only that, i just can't

there's a neat one though where you can build nice houses

[tranquil glen]

so u think space prep automation is boring?

[verbal plume]

no, just only using those mods would drive me crazy

bedrock is getting some nice stuff

[inland oasis]

so the helldiver 2 "slimming" update, was a godsend for me. strangely now, it runs like BUTTER for me 😄

[inland oasis]

epic shot

[mental rose]

You fool, you crossed the beams!
You've doomed us all!

(Ghostbusters joke)

[verbal plume]

im doing lies of P now

i also started that one like ds3 but then stopped

im dreading sekiro, whenever that comes

[wraith horizon]

Chat suggest some feel good type games
Like games that are designed to make you relax

[steel grail]

Minecraft? xD

[wraith horizon]

Valid
But i played that already

I need something single player

[steel grail]

Not exactly makes u relax but theres subnautica

[wraith horizon]

Also played that

Aint no way someone finds subnautica relaxing

[steel grail]

I mean, the exploration part, no but the building part xD

[feral ginkgo]

Yeah, me.

[steel grail]

There's factorio too

Or games like factorio

[wraith horizon]

Lemme check out factorio

Its a tycoon game
Good option but i need more options

[steel grail]

I myself am playing hades. Chill sessions but I guess that'd be personal pref

[wraith horizon]

I played a game called sky
So anything in that similar aesthetic

[steel grail]

Cities skylines?

[wraith horizon]

Lemme check it out

[tranquil glen]

https://tenor.com/view/astroneer-dance-god-taketh-away-gif-7899117948687459895

Astroneer?

Skyrim?

[split ridge]

astroneer

[tranquil glen]

Most of current games i play are all live service

Aside skyrim

Stardew valley?

[wraith horizon]

Astroneer
Looks nice
Any games with similar aesthetics?
Imma try astroneer first tho

[wraith horizon]

Tbh i aint a huge fan of 2d games

[tranquil glen]

Wouldnt say its chill exactly, but maybe… deep rock galactic

[inland oasis]

YEARN for the mines!

[wraith horizon]

Checked the gameplay
Looks multiplayer tho

Too bad im singleplayer

[tranquil glen]

Multiplayer available

As is astroneer..

[dry copper]

Astroneer last i played was a buggy mess. It's a good game....single player.

Multiplayer is collision detection suicide

[wraith horizon]

The aesthetic of that game is kinda nice
I like that aesthetic so any similar games to astroneer?

[ivory nimbus]

I've never played astroneer, but my brother said that he had a great time playing it multiplayer.

My brother plays on the switch 2.

[dry copper]

One of the developers died before the game was finished and they added an easter egg to the game in his honor

[tranquil glen]

Think u need to play it again, first time i did multiplayer it eas a mess, last time it was good

[steel grail]

Bro just get dinkum

Theres no game more relaxing than that and its art style is similar to what u seem to like

[wraith horizon]

Oh dayum

[dry copper]

I won't tell you what it is or where it is, but the developers name was Paul Pepera, for when you find it

[wraith horizon]

Interesting

[tranquil glen]

God dam it i replied to wrong person

[tranquil glen]

Google AI :
Slime Rancher, Satisfactory, Planet Crafter ..

[dry copper]

I cried in slime

[ivory nimbus]

I love slime rancher. I heard that slime rancher 2 is better than the 1st game, but I haven't played slime rancher 2 yet.

[tranquil glen]

I haven’t progressed much in 2 but i would say 1 is better

Atleast thus far for where im at

[ivory nimbus]

Oh really, I've been told that 2 is better because there are more types of slimes.

[tranquil glen]

Sans, all but slime rancher, of the games Ive mentioned are possible coop but prioritized single player

[ivory nimbus]

Sometimes I just go around feeding slimes for hours because it's so relaxing.

[tranquil glen]

Eh nowadays i dont have thr nerve for non combat possible games, so i play warframe vermintide 2, monster hunter worl, Skyrim etc

[wraith horizon]

The thing is
With astroneer and sky
Aside from the aesthetics i like the world look and design
Astroneer got some beautiful visuals and planet design and sky already got the most gorgeous world i have ever seen

Ik i seem kinda picky but bear with me cuz im trying to find peak

[dry copper]

There is no peak.

"So pleas'd at first the tow'ring Alps we try,
Mount o'er the vales, and seem to tread the sky;
Th'eternal snows appear already past,
And the first clouds and mountains seem the last:
But those attain'd, we tremble to survey
The growing labours of the lengthen'd way;
Th'increasing prospect tires our wand'ring eyes,
Hills peep o'er hills, and Alps on Alps arise!”

[wraith horizon]

[dry copper]

Translation: When you reach the top, all you got are more tops to reach

[wraith horizon]

Well rn for me its either a peak game like what im describing

Or far cry 5

[split ridge]

try zork

[tranquil glen]

Try Contra 😂

Oh wait, that’s 2d. Never mind.

[wraith horizon]

[tranquil glen]

Very hard old game platformer

Saw a meme of it last night, Fortnite experts can’t beat X level of contra

Wnat about souls experts

Im talking naked bucket head players

[tranquil glen]

naked bucket head players learnt the hardway, to deal with bosses in that game

i mean if given enough time everyone would know how to beat it

[wraith horizon]

How would those players fare against the supposed x level of contra

[tranquil glen]

but just to throw somene in without prior experience (even to the 2d combat platformer)

the game name is Contra

[wraith horizon]

Oh its a platformer

isnt that, thatgamecompany?

https://tenor.com/view/journey-game-ps3-ps4-sunken-city-gif-25187955

Journey does have its tense moments, but it is relax ful and primarily single player but duo possible

and infrequent

maybe try the followin

https://tenor.com/view/planet-crafter-hop-on-let's-get-it-on-game-gif-4845581922371644815

[wraith horizon]

Yooo i forgot about journey
Ayy got my next game

Journey then astroneer then far cry

[wraith horizon]

Interesting
But not quite my tempo

[tranquil glen]

most other similar games i see dont have the same graphics like astroneer

slime rancher doesnt have the same but from what i know its closer than other "survival/building"

[wraith horizon]

Slime rancher seems interesting look wise but i got a hunch it gonna be slightly grindy
Like warframe level grind

[tranquil glen]

warframe level? Nah, itll be a bit grindy but atleast some of it but not wf level

[wraith horizon]

Ight thanks for the options

[inland oasis]

Speaking of, a hilarious moment happened regarding Destiny 2 and stolen artwork lawsuit.
The devs had to dig through youtube videos and fan wikis to present to court as evidence, because the "now-vaulted" content didn't exist anymore. Even to the developers.

It was about the Red War campaign.

Tbh I haven’t even heard any news about it recently whatsoever rly. Not that I deeply look tho

[feral ginkgo]

I just saw the teaser back then, and it looked interesting.

[sleek cloud]

developing a game is a marathon

[inland oasis]

It confuses me. It all looks rly fancy and strange but aside from it being an “extraction shooter” I haven’t a single clue about it, or what it would feel like playing. Even any lore. It’s all still a mystery to me. Tf is marathon even. Who are they or have I just missed it

Imagine tryna play it like that

Lmao

[verbal plume]

@austere lance did you hear about netflix buying warner bros

crazy stuff

[verbal plume]

playing like that would make me sick

it was kind of annoying to get it like that too

it's still not great, i've seen better

[inland oasis]

[verbal plume]

this guy showed it and i was like "i wanna try that"

he's really good with the in-game editor lol

[inland oasis]

Ayyee NPC pov that’s genius

[verbal plume]

fr and the camera going between the two looks sick

[inland oasis]

That first one’s my fave. How’d dude think of that lol

[verbal plume]

all we need is filters and the editor is pretty much perfect now

[inland oasis]

I haven’t played since even before season 2 dropped tbh.

[verbal plume]

same, i kinda stopped for a few weeks lol

[inland oasis]

Next time I get on I’m hoping it’ll feel a lil different not just new shit for sale as cosmetics lmao

[verbal plume]

now i can make good clips though

[inland oasis]

Yea that type stuff is worth it

[verbal plume]

made by me, just to test it

[inland oasis]

Does it remove your need to use CapCut?

[verbal plume]

no sadly, it's one clip at a time type thing i believe

it's just a better camera is all

[inland oasis]

Gotcha

[verbal plume]

you basically put in keyframes at certain points in the editor and the camera will move along that line you made

[inland oasis]

The editor on pc has always been super weird cuz of pcs having there own built in storage

Tryna find where they save n shit

At least on console there’s just an app for it haha

[verbal plume]

yea i heard about that

i just made one real quick to show how it works

give me one second

it confused me at first but it's pretty simple

and you can change the camera for each keyframe, which is how in my video i went from free cam to tripod cam to make it look like cctv or something

[winter yew]

sorry for the late reply in formite

[verbal plume]

and the fallout show is fun

Elden Ring is getting a movie lol

i wish the uncharted movie was any good because those stories are sooo great

i love uncharted and 4 was a great ending

[winter yew]

damn just like that anime
the promised neverland

[winter yew]

i head some fans were saying they were mixing two stories into one

but that one I will watch once I complete the game

[winter yew]

it has a movie?

[verbal plume]

yea it's bad lol

[winter yew]

oh wait

[verbal plume]

It's multiple games mixed into one bad movie

yea

[winter yew]

ohhh

[verbal plume]

and sully was mark walberg...

[winter yew]

wait brb

[verbal plume]

honestly it's pretty much a new story

but she IS looking for her dad

and at the end of season 1 they're going to a place in new vegas

so i can see why that was said

[winter yew]

i see

[winter yew]

ohhh

well then its a def watch from me

because bethestha was very much involved in making that

[verbal plume]

yea next season is gonna be wild

the trailer looks great, i think

[verbal plume]

@austere lance pmo

[winter yew]

[verbal plume]

i lowkey just want more elden ring though

[austere lance]

Nope, it's a Souls-like that heavily focuses on parrying in combat

[verbal plume]

[tranquil glen]

https://tenor.com/view/will-ferrell-mind-reader-are-you-reading-my-mind-gif-12130474

[verbal plume]

it's very hard for me

[winter yew]

man didnt know that
on my list

[austere lance]

Just wait til you go up the hill

[tranquil glen]

I have wanted this since i saw the 2nd live action Percy Jackson (movie)

[verbal plume]

That guy sucks

i ran past him

[austere lance]

Punching clown? Yeah, I always run past him and grab the bonfire

[verbal plume]

I hope so! I'm a major Leo and Hephaestus fan.

and festus would be soo sick...

[tranquil glen]

I prefer nico or Jason, but also um the canadian is also cool as is jasper

[austere lance]

You're almost to the back half of the game where shit gets wild 👀 @verbal plume

[verbal plume]

i need nico as well

i can't wait

[verbal plume]

oh lord

[tranquil glen]

wait is it happening or just somethin u hope for? didnt we only see nico in like book 3 or beyond?

[verbal plume]

yes, im just excited because it will probably be adapted finally, when s3 drops haha

[tranquil glen]

book 1 was luke and lightning, book 2 was the isle of giant and goats, book 3 is the maze iirc, which i think has nico?

[verbal plume]

there's also what people believe to be a nico teaser in season 1

[winter yew]

does anyone plays fortnite to chill?

[tranquil glen]

I do wonder how theyll portray character development for those siblings

[winter yew]

playing that racing game
anyone wanna join?

[verbal plume]

its just a kid talking in the background to his sister, no faces to them just voices

[austere lance]

First you have to get past the boss in the mansion on top of the punching clown hill 👀

[tranquil glen]

i havent watched the full season, kinda quit when i saw who was who, but knowing the second series may be better adapted makes me want to fully watch the first season

[verbal plume]

i basically stopped at that bonfire because i wanna kill that clown

i suck at parrying though

[verbal plume]

im just glad ares is in season 1 man

[austere lance]

The clown is a pain in the ass and doesn't drop anything useful, don't bother

[verbal plume]

its so much more accurate i dont even are about how the characters look

[tranquil glen]

is the mattress bed dude in season one 🙏🏼

[verbal plume]

i mean the movie was 10x worse haha

[verbal plume]

YES

[tranquil glen]

thank fuck

[austere lance]

Who was who?

[tranquil glen]

not depicted as public expected, as fan art was displayed as for atleast the main 3 characters

[verbal plume]

yea i mean, i was also disappointed because annabelle is blonde but i got over it

[tranquil glen]

still dislike the fact percy actor himself has BLACK/BROWN HAIR, yet wears wig for the show...

[verbal plume]

once again though the movies were 10x worse and had adults playing as children, so at least it's closer lol

[tranquil glen]

she was also dirty blonde in the movie no?

[verbal plume]

https://tenor.com/view/first-immortal-gif-3873883085128925830

[austere lance]

Are you being mad about Annabeth being black, lol?

God I hate those movies

[verbal plume]

yea same lol

[austere lance]

TV show is 1000x better

[tranquil glen]

ngl i dont dislike the first, but the second agreed is shit

[verbal plume]

for sure

[tranquil glen]

idea

[verbal plume]

the percy and ares fight in s1..🙏

[tranquil glen]

what if they made the side stories

[verbal plume]

so cool

[tranquil glen]

say annabeth meets sadie kane

[austere lance]

Does this have to do with Annabeth being black, lol

[tranquil glen]

not just that yea

https://tenor.com/view/percy-jackson-and-the-olympians-pjo-pjo-show-percy-jackson-annabeth-chase-gif-5052129159693398394

[tranquil glen]

what if they made the side series of meetings between different peoples

like percy jackson and Carter Kane

[daring spear]

Me when I disagree with the cast the author of the books chose

[austere lance]

The mythical Greek creature and Annabeth being brown affected nothing, lol

[tranquil glen]

true that yea

i kinda wish Rick had made a better cross-over between Percy and Magnus, aside from just making presence in i think the 2nd Magnus and Gods of Asgard

as Magnus and Annabeth are cousins

@verbal plume if the roman series made into live action wouldnt that mean we also get to see jason and gang, and actually the florida roman legion?

[austere lance]

Yee

[tranquil glen]

i just realized

that also means

percy and annabeth gonna sufferrrrr

[verbal plume]

yea i hope we get to that point

these stories are so good

the flying ship

[tranquil glen]

i mean tbf percy pretty much almost dies every book

[verbal plume]

haha

[tranquil glen]

bro almost got evaped twice or 3x in book 1 alone

bro got pushed off a high cliff in 2, almost turned to a rodent in 2 (entering the triangle, wonder how theyll show that), and almost got beat by the giant himself

[verbal plume]

gosh i can't wait

[tranquil glen]

3rd book: then lost in a maze, almost beat by a giant (again lol), almost beat by luke again, i think theres more lol

[verbal plume]

https://tenor.com/view/jediwizard4-percy-jackson-percy-vs-ares-ares-percy-jackson-fight-gif-15682976594771221438

lol

[tranquil glen]

i forget they were alreaerdy in desert by that point ngl

[verbal plume]

thats the part where he escaped the underworld

and used the pearls to go to a beach

[tranquil glen]

why is ares attackin them there then tho? wasnt his deal complete I thought

[verbal plume]

Kronos i think

or something

he was starting a war between the gods with manipulation

[tranquil glen]

kronos is locked in box tho unless its his mind control bs

[verbal plume]

And ares didnt like percy or something

[tranquil glen]

tbf percy and ares (and family) never get along aside from clarisse

[verbal plume]

yea plus percy like

wasnt supposed to be born

[tranquil glen]

niether was jason, or annabeths gf, or nico&sister

[verbal plume]

i gotta rewatch it i forget exactly alr

[tranquil glen]

i say annabeths gf bc she came to camp with her, but i forget her name 🤣

[verbal plume]

something to do with kronos manipulating everyone to war with themselves

something along those lines

[verbal plume]

Talia?

[tranquil glen]

ah so mind bendy shit he can do from in a box

[verbal plume]

something like that i believe

[tranquil glen]

yeatalia

Thalia

wonder who they gonna cast for her ngl

tamara smart.. ok

[verbal plume]

i just need nico 😭

S3 gonna be so good

[tranquil glen]

esp with the giant fight and post consequences/loss

also fighting luke in s2 against the blade of mortal and demons

[verbal plume]

S1 gives me hope for the rest because of how much more was added for it

like the bed guy

And ares

Etc

The fact ares wasnt even in the first movie

lol

[tranquil glen]

OH SHIT

we get to see The Oracle as well

in s3

another mortal who can see beyond the mist

[verbal plume]

Oh shit yea

i need to reread these books honestly

been so long

[tranquil glen]

at hoover dam no less, (which that part anyhow is really funny and fun to read)

well what would become the oracle

[verbal plume]

also i like the grover stuff in season 1

his quest to find Pan

[tranquil glen]

I think you gonna find more grover stuff in the posible s4

[verbal plume]

grover is the goat

literally

[tranquil glen]

satyr but yea

[verbal plume]

half goat!

[tranquil glen]

i forget which book it was

but the horde of horses that storm a boat in one of them

[verbal plume]

The Pan stuff also wasn't in the movies

[tranquil glen]

none of 3-5 was

[verbal plume]

yea but they make sure to mention the quest in season 1

its neat

[tranquil glen]

well yea no shit kinda have to

[verbal plume]

that's why im saying this

wasnt even mentioned in the movies

[tranquil glen]

the pan stuff or the prophecy

i know pan stuff wasnt but prophecy was right when percy was getin learnt

bout camp

[verbal plume]

the pan stuff

let me see if i can find a clip

https://youtu.be/QNJqMUWLD4A?si=z4dg9TbQt2M1OleL

isn't what i was looking for but this is him talking about Pan

also i like how they kept the fact grover is older just looks younger lmao

[tranquil glen]

aw i was refering to movies lol

[verbal plume]

it didn't work for the movies, for obvious reasons

[tranquil glen]

i know lol

[verbal plume]

yea im just pointing out differences and stuff i like in the new one, too hyped for season 2

[tranquil glen]

i was linked two separate wiki pages long ago reviewing the differences from book to show/movies

if you want me to post em

[verbal plume]

sure!

i've always been very partial towards leo and hephaestus as a god

i really want that stuff

[tranquil glen]

Differences from book 1 : against movie 1, and season 1

https://riordan.fandom.com/wiki/Percy_Jackson_and_the_Olympians_(TV_series)/Differences_from_the_book

[verbal plume]

awesome

[tranquil glen]

🤣

way to go books simplicity for annabeth

[verbal plume]

gonna look at it more in depth when i'm off work here soon but that's funny lol

hephaestus actually shows up in s1, pretty sure that wasn't in the books

probably says that

[tranquil glen]

depends if its shows up outside the hall of the 12 majors

[verbal plume]

yes he shows up at waterland or whatever it's called

i think he helps with the riddle iirc

or something like that

[tranquil glen]

ohh right right

maybe, not implied he himself is there

oh ok yea not there in books

only in later books is he actually a presence that isnt considering hall of the 12

[tranquil glen]

hot take playstation ruined gtavo

[split ridge]

anyone here played rain world
If so, is it good?

[obtuse reef]

I would say it's pretty good, I was just really really bad at it

[coarse swift]

18 years of waiting for Prime 4 only to feel like how I did with Starfield

[tranquil glen]

huh

Prime 4?

[austere lance]

Metroid Prime 4

[supple glen]

I ignored the empty desert bike section
I ignored the botw adjacent shrines
I ignored the music being locked behind a ambiio or completion

But all the baby sitting missions cross the damn line lol

[coarse swift]

the music was so mid anyways that the desert was better off without

it also unlocks after beating the game, dont necessarily need the amiibo

I'm the 1% but I didn't mind the desert too much. A barren open area doesn't bother me. There are some things here and there to discovered and it could've been better, but would've been 100 times better if Myles didn't open his fucking mouth any time I was out there to remind me where to go
Areas were too linear, not enough side stuff to get into to discover hidden items.
Babysitting segments weren't bad up until the final fight, at the point it was please stop dying and get out of the way

I think they were intending for the sniper guy to be cool and likeable but he really wasn't. Dude was about to tell me that rain will make you wet I swear
