general-chat

[modest flume]

I've got yooouuuu
Under my skiiinnnn

[dire kayak]

hmmmm

ill try that next time

[twin flower]

yeah, just dip them in acetone for like 3 mins, and it sorta dissolves the supe glue and then gently peel it off

[shell creek]

Anyone?

[astral basin]

I hope Ma Tyrona doesn’t find out about him borrowing money from the family account

[twin flower]

The only penance I cared about was assist 50 players do their missions, I think that counts as any rank iirc

[shell creek]

Thx

[twin flower]

Is that the same one you're doing

[shell creek]

I’m trying to do the one involving completing 50 assignments

[twin flower]

Idk about the other Havoc penances

Ohh, then it should if I remember right

Could always check the progress anyway, and the other tricky thing people mentioned it, someone other you should not be hosting the party

otherwise it wouldn't count

[shell creek]

Also trying to get the one that requires reaching clearance lvl 25, but that’s hard to do when almost everyone doesn’t want me on their havoc teams for lvls 20 and up :/

[shy panther]

whoever invented vraks 5 gun hive scum

from the bottom of my heart, thank you

[twin flower]

Havoc be like that

[shell creek]

Gotcha, ty

[twin flower]

Good luck

I'd have offered to help but I aint free rn

I wanted to trying getting back to Havocs as well since its kinda ass with just the Party Finder

[astral basin]

Can I go home now?

[twin flower]

Working is you

[inner nimbus]

y'all wanna hear/critique my choices of race for SWTOR? lmao

[twin flower]

wassat

[inner nimbus]

Star Wars the Old Republic

finally returning to it, feels nice to experience the rest of this game's writing

[twin flower]

Idk Star Wars a whole lot but go for it

[inner nimbus]

trying to get the Legendary title, which requires playing through all of the origin stories

so rn, plan is
Sith Warrior Togruta
Bounty Hunter Rattataki most likely
Jedi Knight Twi'lek
Jedi Consular Nautilan
Republic Trooper Cathar most likely

the first two are just stories I really wanna relive, cus I kind of coasted through them/skipped through them

[tender horizon]

Love both

SW and BH that is

[inner nimbus]

yeah Togruta for a SW seems really unique

especially cus of Ahsoka, they're usually seen as more Jedi

[tender horizon]

I did it once and went "oh I can't wear headgear" and went Human tbh

[inner nimbus]

tbh I hide my helmet more often than not so

or wear like, headgear that keeps the face visible

[tender horizon]

Yk the Malgus mask?

[inner nimbus]

not that big a problem

[tender horizon]

Couldn't even wear that

Wanted to

[inner nimbus]

damn, at least Twi'lek can

[tender horizon]

They might be able to now, this was a really long time ago, I feel they look good otherwise as sith tho tbh

Every race with horns does

[dire kayak]

what evil activities should i partake in

[astral basin]

Cocaine

The rest will follow

Idk star wars enough to know about races
Theres only a handful of niche races i recognize but dont know the name for

Then again. Fisto isnt exactly niche. And i still dont remember what he is

[inner nimbus]

Kit Fisto? he's a nautolan

[stable hatch]

fisto sounds like the name of an alien in a star wars adult film

[inner nimbus]

sadly, Fisto is an actual Star Wars name

he's even voiced by the same VA that voiced Samurai Jack

[stable hatch]

sadly. not everyone can be as cool as dexter jettster

[inner nimbus]

Kit's a cool guy

[graceful hamlet]

He yells “It’s Fisto time!” Before Fisto’ing all over the place

[inner nimbus]

you mean the alien from the cantina scene from Star Wars the Clone Wars?

[stable hatch]

the diner alien, yeah

[inner nimbus]

ah here I thought this was a HLVRAI reference

I really should watch HL2VRAI

[graceful hamlet]

Also the same race as the Jedi dude from the Umbaran arc

[inner nimbus]

it's actually amazing how many of my internet funny moments come from wayneradio and co

[stable hatch]

i didn't know this was a thing before but i guess i'm gonna find and watch this now

[inner nimbus]

all I'll say is enjoy

it's about 2 hours total iirc, and then you have like hours more of behind the scenes commentary and editorial footage

if you end up loving it as much as I did

[jaunty path]

Chat am I smart

[whole glade]

gup

[jaunty path]

There are correct answers

[whole glade]

ggup

[jaunty path]

[twin flower]

Well if you had to ask..

[jaunty path]

The answer is yeah right

[twin flower]

Just yanking your pizzle

[astral basin]

Yeah, right…

[jaunty path]

Ah good I would've had to kill someone.

[graceful hamlet]

You’re in a 40k discord.

[twin flower]

-# gulp

[vivid zinc]

Harley and Poison Ivy in their cartoon show is awesome

[astral basin]

The first two signs of potential brain alternativity

[graceful hamlet]

Optimus would approve

[jaunty path]

homos in denial

[astral basin]

Discord and warhammer X

[graceful hamlet]

Pretty sure they’re not in denial in that show

[vivid zinc]

Right they actively live together....as a couple lol

[jaunty path]

ah

never watched

[vivid zinc]

It's pretty funny

[graceful hamlet]

And they were just roommates

[somber stream]

Missing emails, 3AM heartfelt conversation about breakfast and other corporate bullshit

[acoustic pebble]

Hey hey people

[astral basin]

Lol

[somber stream]

WEDNESDAY

[acoustic pebble]

I made a mistake

[jaunty path]

Writing like a protagonist

[acoustic pebble]

I bought a dlc for Bannerlord

[jaunty path]

im hungry

[vivid zinc]

I AM BANE. GIVE ME BACK MY WAFFLE MAAAAKER!

[twin flower]

Bannerlord you say?

[somber stream]

Hi Hungry i'm dad

[graceful hamlet]

Rip. Goodbye to your next 5000 hours 😔

[twin flower]

Warsails?

[acoustic pebble]

But to make up for it... I'm writing a journal entry for a 53rd Guardsman getting ambushed by Hive Scum

[astral basin]

Hi hungry, im dad

[acoustic pebble]

Ye

[astral basin]

FUCK

[acoustic pebble]

The Nords MUST raid!

[somber stream]

Slow poke hahahahahaha

[astral basin]

licht beat me to it

Lmao

[somber stream]

I might be a bit unstable today, bear with me chat

[twin flower]

Worth

[astral basin]

Licht? Unstable? Never

[acoustic pebble]

So a normal day?

[twin flower]

Gen chat? Stable? Never..

[vivid zinc]

It's okay, I am literally half drunk still and am eating McDonald's hangover food lol

[somber stream]

The slanders

[graceful hamlet]

You might be done by the time Skitarii drop

[twin flower]

A month has to go by somehow

[acoustic pebble]

Oh I'm more excited by the Skitarii and Hive Scum having some unhinged conversations

[vivid zinc]

Play crimson desert

[twin flower]

What do you think Scum would call them

[twin flower]

I can't run it..

[vivid zinc]

awww

[twin flower]

Need a god damn NASA PC for real

[astral basin]

Creepy

[acoustic pebble]

Clanky

[turbid jungle]

Crimson desert has a crimson desert

[vivid zinc]

Also has mechas and dragons in the same game

[acoustic pebble]

It's a Crimson made of Desert?!?

[twin flower]

Crimson my Desert til I Greymane

[acoustic pebble]

I'd rather leap off a Kliff

[vivid zinc]

I'm swoooooorn to carry your burdens...

[astral basin]

Actually
I REALLY hope we get a newbie indetured skit
One thats been recently drafted as part of the immigration tax, or couldnt work the manufacturing facilities due to injuries

[acoustic pebble]

Also found out the Skitarii will only have four voices, but they're all their own personalities

[twin flower]

Can I have a Femtarii?

[acoustic pebble]

Yes but actually no

[twin flower]

Sad days

[somber stream]

So apparently i missed an email about an important event just to get my ass spammed at 3AM, then found out the guy in sale department who was supposedly the sender, FORGOT to press sent and thought he did so he pinned his shit on me. Which lead to some serious corporate typing like "i sincerely hope you improve on this oversight the next time we exchange information, professionally" Which roughly means "Genuinely go fuck yourself" and then i talked to a girl in my team about our favourite go to for breakfast options while waiting for HR to join the call to conclude the meeting

She liked egg

[astral basin]

Eeg

Event detailer tryna deny fault is dumb af tho

[astral basin]

4 flavors of nonbinary

[somber stream]

"well it's just a reminder so you're still accountable regardless hurh durh"

[vivid zinc]

CYA is the name of the game

[astral basin]

Hes in it until September i think

[somber stream]

JULY

[astral basin]

Oooo

[somber stream]

Not a day more

[astral basin]

Even better

[vivid zinc]

He's in your ass until September? You THINK?

[somber stream]

Sorry chat that was a weird vent, back to shitposting

[astral basin]

Two months later: “By the way can we get some stuff the we totally had you working on thats ‘supposed’ to have been finished?”

[acoustic pebble]

Obese Megaladon: NO

[somber stream]

Nah i put a halt to all major project from this point onward

[undone wolf]

Okay so Expeditions actually suck so fucking bad if you play with randoms.

[somber stream]

Only day-to-day operation and guidelines

[undone wolf]

I just got a pack of idiots who refused to extract under any conditions and got the whole team wiped.

[acoustic pebble]

Ye. You need friends

And noone has friends here

[twin flower]

Welcome aboard

[acoustic pebble]

Except me

[astral basin]

Instant door/ extraction?
Guy using a level 30 still in their prison pjs?

[acoustic pebble]

I have friends

That are here

[vivid zinc]

U know u can extract without them, right?

[astral basin]

Guys i wanna piss mattress pro

[undone wolf]

No, this was my first expedition and by the time I decided to give ditching them a shot, a boss enemy spawned in and beat the shit out of me while my team ran around like headless chickens getting kicked to death by trash mobs.

How these people are on fucking Damnation is beyond me, should've been filtered by Malice or Heresy.

[jaunty path]

Sounds like complete shit I hope HR goes well.

[astral basin]

The piss mattress pro comes with a 30 gallon tank, and if i order now theyll send an odor protection plan to my door!

They recommend using the spray for about 20 minutes every couple of hours for maximum odor protection

[somber stream]

Here's a pitch

A tube straight up your ass

[jaunty path]

Sorry what are we talking about

Piss Mattress?

[somber stream]

A mattress implies you have to get up, go to the PC just to play your game, highly inefficient

[twin flower]

Poop mattress

[somber stream]

Do a gaming chair with integrated mattress and shit bucket instead

[twin flower]

Im reminded of that one Southpark episode

[astral basin]

@nocturne bloom are you alive?

[sleek harness]

Alive and playing the Devil's Game

[astral basin]

Ofc they are

@nocturne bloom lmk when your done and pick a channel
I have something of absolute filth you are required to see
As a gun nut this time*

[limpid flicker]

I think ive hit my warhammer arc in life. its darktide and space marines that im playing in my off time mostly, and I literally listen to 40k lore during work

[twin flower]

Good shih

[timber elk]

OI BLOCKHEADS!!!! I HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A GOOD NIGHT

[jaunty path]

Thank you lamball

ur very kewl

[twin flower]

Good morning Lamb

[timber elk]

Or morning

[jaunty path]

est superiority

[timber elk]

I forgot macintosk isn’t in anyone’s time zones

[twin flower]

[limpid flicker]

Still early into it all but man im having a good gime

*time

[somber stream]

Is it rude to think man buns are kinda gay

[stark bobcat]

a little?

[somber stream]

Just a little rude or just a little gay

[stark bobcat]

rude

[somber stream]

Oh okay

[timber elk]

Rude

[stark bobcat]

I had one for many years and people always just assumed I was gay

got annoying at times

[astral basin]

Ciao lamb

[timber elk]

I know a guy who has one and people don’t assume so….maybe?

I guess it just depends on the attitude

[limpid flicker]

Never had long enough hair for a man bun, but id be lying if I said I didnt think they were cool for a solid minute lol

[modest flume]

Have a good rest, Lamb

[timber elk]

But that’s also like saying if a chick had very short hair and colored it blue is she a lesbian

[astral basin]

I have fairly long hair.
People tend to assume im gay pretty quick
Grandmas exhusband did the “you look like a girl” act

[modest flume]

You look like you

Can kick his ass

[shell goblet]

i wouldn't have thought you were gay but i probably would've thought you sold burgers for $25+ on uncomfy metal stools to the beats of Stomp Clap Hey and maybe vape on ur breaks

[astral basin]

He no longer has an ass
It was crisped in a housefire

[modest flume]

chestnuts roasting on an open fiiiirreeee

[somber stream]

Oh yeah i get it now, it's not the hairstyle alone, it's the combination of things

[stark bobcat]

fair, there is a bit of a stereotype of long male hair = being unkept

[timber elk]

What?

[stark bobcat]

from my experience

yeah

[timber elk]

Most of history shown man with long hair as hero’s or friendly figures

[stark bobcat]

I've had mid back long curly hair since grade school

[timber elk]

Than again I never heard the stereotype type of long hair = to unkept

[somber stream]

Starbucks on the right hand, some guru book on the left, wearing vest with shorts, sandals. Those rounded glasses thing and of course, enviromental friendly tote bag

[astral basin]

Also. He was a thorough bred southerner
Construction worker, farm equipment. Whatever operated in manual
5’6, and only held back by temper and alcoholism

[shell goblet]

you can usually tell if their hair is greasy at a glance

[timber elk]

Yeah I know a couple of infamous online figures who don’t how to wash their ass

[astral basin]

Ive only heard it recently tbf
Probably a college genz thing
Or post covid butterness
Like millennial valley girls and their 666 standard

[timber elk]

or someone who doesn’t take care of themselves at all and refuses to wash

coughs novaonline coughs

[somber stream]

Grew my hair long during covid and a little bit after, the bathroom floor always look like a scene from some horror movie after every shower

[timber elk]

Same. Expect my head of hair look liked a Afro after months of being stuck inside

[astral basin]

Im definitely unkempt
Only sometimes unshowered
But like. I like having long hair. Those arent why its long

[astral basin]

Natural state of wool tbf

[timber elk]

No I’m talking about how some people just outright refuse to wash themselves and they fucking smell like ammonia

[astral basin]

Right

Fourth rat

Fourth rat

I need a fifth

[timber elk]

It’s fine if you don’t shower every couple of days but Jesus some people take it far

[somber stream]

Funny enough i did had pony tail and even used as a braid practice by my sisters but nobody called me gay

[lapis halo]

Fuck I think I screwed up my sound settings

I’ve been using my laptop as a stand in TV/monitor for my Xbox Series X, and I’ve been using OBS studios to play it through. But OBS is stupid and you have to modify some settings to make it so that there’s no audio delay in your headphones

Well now I tried to use my mic to talk through Darktide tonight and even when I pressed V to talk, nothing came out of my mic. My computer is showing that my default device is my headphones, not the capture card I’m using, so I have no idea why it’s not working

It’s not the worst thing in the world, I mean I can type through my keyboard, but I have no idea why my mic has just suddenly stopped working, especially considering I’ve tried to change the settings so my default audio device are my headphones

[somber stream]

Do your headphone has a wireless dongle connected

[lapis halo]

Nah, they’re wired

I connect them directly into the audio port in my laptop

I swear I think it’s something about changing my audio settings so OBS studios didnt have an audio delay. But I did that like weeks ago so I have no idea what I did specifically

[somber stream]

Haven't use wired for many years, but i did heard a similar case got fixed by updating drivers, might want to look into that as well

[lapis halo]

Hmmm I update my NVIDIA driver yesterday

[twin flower]

Well there is like 30+years worth of lore around

[astral basin]

Fuck another $50 week
Was gonna be 80 but like. I overdrew on the card

[blazing ibex]

Believe it or not but it can actually be a mental thing

Oh wait

Me ourple now

Wait is that what makes you ourple

Boosting?

[astral basin]

Indeed

[blazing ibex]

Well shit I legit never knew that until now

[twin flower]

you are pink now

[candid drift]

purple goblin waow

[twin flower]

I remember someone saying you have to reach like a mil messages and you get porple

[lethal solstice]

You are gay colored now.

Enjoy

[twin flower]

idk if its true tho

[blazing ibex]

I mean a million messages is a pretty hard ask

[warm gyro]

Do you have a favorite faction yet

[lethal solstice]

Thats 1/8th of a zealot chat

[warm gyro]

I'm a long time fan myself

Custodes are my faves

[blazing ibex]

...Am I Poppy?

[lethal solstice]

Sorry 1/5th

[modest flume]

Poppy Gobby

[twin flower]

Yeah but idk if its also what makes you pink cuz no one realyl confirmed

I cant remember who said it

[warm gyro]

Custodes and Eldar specifically

[blazing ibex]

Well I literally just decided to boost because why not

And I'm ourple now

[twin flower]

plurple

[modest flume]

Thank you for your service

[twin flower]

What does boosting even do

To the server I mean

[blazing ibex]

This is pretty much the channel I mainly socialize in at this point so it was only a matter of time

[twin flower]

Aside from, spending money

[modest flume]

More emote and sticker slots and stuff

[somber stream]

Allow sticker, HD streaming and more than 10mb picture sending

[blazing ibex]

More benefits for users basically.

[somber stream]

Not that any of those matter in general chat

[twin flower]

Bring back Sororita dancing sticker

[little kettle]

Chat are you guys excited for the squat mercenary class???

[blazing ibex]

Yuh

[somber stream]

Except teh stickers, of course

[twin flower]

stinklers

[twin flower]

d'aww

thats cute lmao

[gaunt wind]

Its definitely flamboyant

[limpid flicker]

Completely original and def not common take, big fan of Adeptus Mechanicus rn lol. but im still early enough that im sure ill fall in love with others as I learn about them. Nurgle for example, what little I learned I thought was cool

[modest flume]

Her name is Brick, and yes she is

[modest flume]

DEATH. DECAY. DISEASE AND ROT!

[twin flower]

Aww, shaped like one too, huh

[modest flume]

She hits like one too

[somber stream]

She's one of the enemy?

[limpid flicker]

Big fan of green pus chaos god already

[twin flower]

Brick's from a game?

[somber stream]

Looks like Pizza Tower, yeah

[twin flower]

Ohh

[modest flume]

She is specifically Gustavo's friend

[somber stream]

Oh phew

[modest flume]

Well, enemy turned friend

They fight and then make up

[slender aurora]

PSA to clean your phone's USB charger every couple years. I have just scraped approximately 1 square inch of crud out of the port and now my phone charges properly again

[junior crag]

is there any way to see how many players are playing what class?

[modest flume]

There are enemies that look like her though

They just kinda sit in place and look derpy

[warm gyro]

tzeentch is my favorite in terms of chaos

[warm gyro]

i dont care about space marines or chaos marines

but i do love thousand sons

[somber stream]

I'll do a game marathon comes weekend

[twin flower]

Kinda doubt it atm

[twin flower]

You mean.. the Thousand Sands?

-# ahuehuehue

[warm gyro]

true

[modest flume]

I have a co worker who literally laughs like that

He gets no mercy

[twin flower]

i have a friend that laughs like that too lmao

[limpid flicker]

I cant comment because Im among the car horn laugh category

[thorn wedge]

im a champion on chaos im going to live in glory

bitch no you're not the ogryn just grabbed a rock/the veteran has already done this/ the psyker just started cackling/ the zealots eyes just fogged over

[whole glade]

gup

[junior crag]

i thought this event was ment to be easy due to buffs :(

[warm gyro]

Btw the Forges of Mars series and Titanicus have audiobooks

I've not read the former but I can say the latter is good

Both are Admech focused books

Titanicus has a huge scale and is pretty entertaining

It's solid and one I'd recommend for someone who wants to start checking out the 40k novels

[jaunty path]

Attention all brown people in chat. Send me your cultural dishes

I need curry

feed me food

[modest flume]

[junior crag]

how does the event work

[thorn wedge]

try adobo chicken

[limpid flicker]

Appreciate it, thats going on the list then! Ive no shortage of need to occupy myself during monotonous day shifts lol

[thorn wedge]

is goot

[jaunty path]

get a lot of skulls

break skulls

done.

break

idols

done

[warm gyro]

My favorites in the Black Library aaaaare

Probably Watchers of the Throne (both books) and The Infinite and the Divine

[jaunty path]

Are there no brown people here

Is this a mayofest

[warm gyro]

i am the opposite (nordic)

very sorry!

[limpid flicker]

Off topic but got one of those magnetic stovetops and dear god I thought it was a myth that you could boil water in 2 minutes till now...technologies amazing lol

[lethal solstice]

Magnetic stovetop?

[rocky heart]

induction

[candid drift]

i am yellow i fear

[warm gyro]

It's a Necron book instead, but I'd really suggest The Infinite and the Divine. It's one of the best 40k books period and you don't have to know everything about the lore to read it, just what the Necrons are I suppose

[limpid flicker]

An induction cooktop i think is what its actually called

[somber stream]

Whellow

[warm gyro]

I don't usually do audiobooks but I did read a few chapters in the audiobook off of Amazon (I got it for free) and it was fun. Still went back to my copy of it as I prefer to read in quiet

[lethal solstice]

Yeah I just looked it up thats cool as hell

[limpid flicker]

Its terrifying when you dont know how fast it and see the water going over

[lethal solstice]

It can always be worse

It can be milk

[limpid flicker]

Milk burns sound horrid

[warm gyro]

we replaced our old range (late 90s/early 2000s, probably...) last year and i had the exact same reaction

[lethal solstice]

Milk boiling over in 30 seconds flat

[modest flume]

Mustard?

[limpid flicker]

Literally, i went from a heated metal coil stove to this and its a helluva upgrade

[lethal solstice]

I'm just a gas peasant

The fanciest oven I've used is just a convection oven

[limpid flicker]

Always too scared of the gas oven thanks to growing up in a household of overzealous smokers lol

[thorn wedge]

https://tenor.com/view/cigarette-smoking-smoke-hank-hill-king-of-the-hill-gif-6092209952733666005

[limpid flicker]

Moral of the story is I feel older and sad after boiling water lol

[jaunty path]

eh>

?

how

its just boiling water

sorry i got here we're talking uh magnetic ovens?

stoves*

[warm gyro]

yes

[limpid flicker]

Its that transition from older tech to new yeah

[patent grove]

How do magnets work

[modest flume]

They just do

[limpid flicker]

In the stove?

[patent grove]

Fkn magic

[warm gyro]

water fire air and dirt

[limpid flicker]

Short and dumb version is hidden coils in stovetop makes cooking pots molecules vibrate via the equivelant of bluetooth

[jaunty path]

I too, feel like a Necron Overlord when I boil water in my E Kettle

[limpid flicker]

Ill feel that way once I get a fridge that talks back to me

[jaunty path]

Why are they putting Ipads on the fridges

[limpid flicker]

For the 2 seconds youd usually look away to open the fridge youll still see your show lol

[jaunty path]

I don't want to hear good morning from a clanker unless its a hot anthro robot

[nocturne bloom]

Clankers a clanker boss

[patent grove]

Have you had your robot vibrated hot caffeine beverage yet

[hazy valley]

I can't wait to be a clanker next month

[limpid flicker]

I didnt even consider that, if my appliances have a way too appealing voice what signals am I suppose to receive from that

Weirdest anime ever

[hazy valley]

the only song I enjoy from my machines is the happy jingle my washer and dryer make when they finish

[obtuse oak]

Type shit

[midnight stream]

Is darktide Hella laggy for anyone else?

[jaunty path]

Corporations are really desperate to be our friends

[limpid flicker]

My old one didnt make music but its voilent shaking had a great beat to it

[hazy valley]

the violent shaking is lovely white noise to fall asleep to

[hazy kestrel]

Hello.

[jaunty path]

ONE is hot.

The other is ugly and annoying

definitely not at all exactly like this comic!

[midnight stream]

Hola

[patent grove]

Yeah

[hazy valley]

Hiya!

[midnight stream]

Does it affect your frames or are you just teleporting around

[hazy kestrel]

Missus, what the fuck are you talking about?

[patent grove]

I'm getting bad lag on the mourning star

[hazy valley]

No no no she has a point. I don't want an ugly bastard machine either

[midnight stream]

Missus ain't talking, SHE'S PREACHING

[jaunty path]

I'm talking about THE TRUTH.

THE TRUTH IS. I DONT WANT MY APPLIANCES TO SPEAK UNLESS I SPECIFICALLY PAID FOR SUCH. I DON'T WANT A VOICE COMING OUT OF IT UNLESS ITS ENDEARING TO ME!

[hazy kestrel]

Oh

That’s fair

Carry on

[jaunty path]

What am I on about

that is a great question

[midnight stream]

Do not doubt yourself missus

[jaunty path]

Right never doubt a single thought have

true

I think its time to blow up the earth

[midnight stream]

The Emperor wouldn't put these thoughts in your head if he wanted you to ignore them

[limpid flicker]

"Good morning sir! What temperature would you like your bath to be?" In a automated dudes voice is not what I need to hear first thing in the morning

[patent grove]

Would you like to play a game

[hazy valley]

The voices keep telling me to do things, but it's too TAME. They need to step it up

[jaunty path]

Okay honestly If its like that I strongly prefer it be entirely robotic and non human

I DO NOT like things that are not human pretending to be human

absolutely not

[hazy kestrel]

Missus is a Synth hater, confirmed.

[jaunty path]

do the synth lie about being human

[midnight stream]

-# clean your room cat

[hazy kestrel]

It depends

[patent grove]

A slightly robotic voice, like Kitt in Night Rider

[midnight stream]

-# you should brush your teeth before bed

[jaunty path]

I want the robot to lack emotion entirely

[hazy valley]

I have a clean room!! See? Too tame

[hazy kestrel]

Some know they’re fake

Others don’t

[jaunty path]

THE VOICES PROVE CORRECT YET AGAIN

[hazy kestrel]

Many are indistinguishable from humans

[jaunty path]

[limpid flicker]

Completely fair, id infinitely prefer something i can clearly distiuigish as a service unit and not an actual human

[astral basin]

What if the voices were demeaning instead?

[midnight stream]

YOU SHOULD TAKE A SHOWER CAT

[jaunty path]

ah right uh . hancock is synth right

[hazy valley]

I LITERALLY JUST TOOK A SHOWER

[hazy kestrel]

No

[jaunty path]

i only know uh

[hazy kestrel]

He’s a Ghoul

[jaunty path]

fallout 4...

from...

[hazy valley]

I'm still drowsy from a nice hot shower too

[hazy kestrel]

You’re thinking of Nick

[jaunty path]

watching it infinite years ago

[hazy valley]

very relaxed

[hazy kestrel]

The Detective guy

[jaunty path]

yeah

[midnight stream]

YOUR STENCH IS SO PERVASIVE THAT THE VOICES CAN SMELL IT

[patent grove]

Nick valentine

[hazy valley]

EXCUSE ME THEY'RE SMELLING MY SHAMPOO AND BODY WASH

[hazy kestrel]

Good, maybe they’ll finally bugger off.

[hazy valley]

AND I SMELL FUCKING FANTASTIC

[jaunty path]

wagh

https://youtu.be/9nJK0vM8RU0

[midnight stream]

DOES YOUR SHAMPOO AND BODY WASH SMELL LIKE SWEAT AND FECAL MATTER??

[jaunty path]

click all of my youtube links

[hazy kestrel]

No

[hazy valley]

HUH?

No??

[astral basin]

“Nice hot shower”
exits looking like a boiled crab

[midnight stream]

Is that your strategy person?

[jaunty path]

click all of my youtube links..

[hazy valley]

I am what I eat and I fucking LOVE eating crab and lobster

[hazy kestrel]

I mean…it’s worth a shot

In all seriousness. No

[hazy kestrel]

No

[tight pine]

Yes

[hazy kestrel]

Don’t make me talk to you about Cultist Simulator’s madness lore again.

[hazy valley]

it's WHITE PEACH AND ORANGE BLOSSOM

[astral basin]

You shall not have my personal information, no matter how much dad aesthetic you give off

[jaunty path]

The youtube link is Pragmata OST - Combat Theme 01.

Listen to it. You don't need to click my link

DDAHADADD ADAADAD AD AD AD AD AAD AD D DAD ADA D ADAD

thats the lyrics

[hazy kestrel]

No

[jaunty path]

[patent grove]

I've never seen a white peach before

[junior crag]

idk why but darktide makes my eyes hurt

[midnight stream]

Is it the blood and gore splattering across them?

[hazy valley]

I've never tried a white peach

I should try one if I'm going to smell like one

[jaunty path]

I like it a lot because I feel its beats are in sync with every step of the enemies footsteps. Its just so fitting.

I love walking animations they make my brain ooze

Specifically when they have style to them

[astral basin]

Hate peaches

[hazy valley]

train your eyes to not hurt by using discord light theme everyday

[jaunty path]

Think Hylics

[hazy valley]

I prefer pears and nectarines but peaches are ok

[jaunty path]

hylics...

[midnight stream]

A nice pear is so good

[jaunty path]

spookys haunted mansion

[midnight stream]

Oranges are better tho

[jaunty path]

hm

[hazy kestrel]

Time to sleep I think.

[jaunty path]

Good Night

[hazy kestrel]

Maybe I’ll have a strange dream again

[hazy valley]

I've never really liked oranges unless it's orange juice

[midnight stream]

-# 🫩

[patent grove]

Is that an actual thing

[jaunty path]

My dad dreamed about wrestling a poltergeist on the otherside of a door

[hazy valley]

I'm going to haunt your dreams

[hazy valley]

yes

[hazy kestrel]

Join the club, I have a few things already doing so.

[astral basin]

I don’t mind pears
Not a fruit of choice. Definitely gives me pause in fruit cups
But like. Theres a consistency to them i respect

[hazy kestrel]

Based

Did he win?

[midnight stream]

I don't think I've ever enjoyed a pear in a fruit cup

[hazy valley]

I'm entering your dream inception style. I'm going to haunt you like an old hag without the old or the hag parts

[patent grove]

Blood oranges are so good

[hazy kestrel]

Smh, I already have one of those.

[jaunty path]

he don remember. just knows it kept my room door shut

[hazy valley]

you have a young hag haunting you already?? damn

[hazy kestrel]

I have a colorful cast of eldritch entities sometimes making appearances in my mind.

[hazy valley]

let me know if she retires and I'll fill the job opening

[hazy kestrel]

Like the shadow gnome

Who talks about hermeticism for some reason

And other heretical texts

[neon ice]

Hello everyone

[midnight stream]

Hi

[hazy valley]

I don't think I've ever enjoyed a fruit cup tbh

I love smoothies though

strawberry banana smoothie my beloved

[midnight stream]

They're very mediocre

[hazy valley]

Hiya!

[neon ice]

I just got my refund for the Veteran bundle I bought on accident

[midnight stream]

Nice

[astral basin]

By that youll simply be a hag

[midnight stream]

Now buy an ogryn bundle

[hazy valley]

[twin flower]

buggo cat

[astral basin]

Bat

[astral basin]

Lmao

[junior crag]

this is literally the only game where my eyes hurt so i dont think that will help

[hazy valley]

Congrats!

[midnight stream]

Might be because there's a lot going on

[junior crag]

maybe

[midnight stream]

If you try to focus on it all you'll strain your eyes

You just have to stop thinking and it should fix the issue

[neon ice]

Im enjoying the game, once I get Chainaxes tho I'll be set

[twin flower]

Make it less by killing everything on the screen

[limpid flicker]

Whatevet could you mean? (Flame throwers and psyker electricity turning your screen into a home concert

[midnight stream]

Which class are you using?

[hazy valley]

could be too much eye stress then and it's not a lighting thing
after a match take a time to relax your eyes
look away and don't focus on anything in particular
let your eyes adjust and the tension release
maybe just like a minute or two of giving your eyes a moment before more game

[neon ice]

Zealot

[grizzled plover]

Yuritide is real meanwhile masc operatives are all "I heard a zealot wishing you dead the other day. Sleep lightly." what are they putting in the water on the mourningstar

[midnight stream]

Ah ok

[neon ice]

I gotta use chain weapons cuz thats just peak

[grizzled plover]

Chainaxe is just unironically the best feeling weapon in the game

[hazy valley]

Fem Authoritarian and Fem Cutthroat flirting would be cute if Fem Cutthroat wasn't so awful at flirting

[grizzled plover]

Was even better when it had hitstop

[midnight stream]

I did enjoy my time using the chainsword

[twin flower]

Chord

[grizzled plover]

Cutthroat sucking at it adds to the charm if you ask me. Even in the 41st millenium there are awkward lesbians having awkward crushes

[hazy valley]

Revving up a Chainaxe and letting it bit into a Plague Ogryn or Chaos Spawn is a very satisfying thing

[twin flower]

Better

[midnight stream]

Ive never tried the axe tho

[hazy valley]

I know I'm one of them

[neon ice]

Gotta rep my weapon of choice

Any and all chain weapons are just peak

[grizzled plover]

Chainaxe used to suck so bad meta wise but it felt so good because it just ripped into individual enemies

[patent grove]

Taking a nap at 8pm to wake up at midnight to play videogames

[grizzled plover]

Even light attacks would fucking eat elites whole

[twin flower]

2handed Chainaxe when

[midnight stream]

Never

[grizzled plover]

🤝

[neon ice]

[hazy valley]

2 handed chainaxe would be nice

[neon ice]

Please

[grizzled plover]

chain halberd when

with a chainsaw spear tip

[twin flower]

not with that attitude

[grizzled plover]

and a chainsaw backspike

[midnight stream]

Peak?

[neon ice]

Stop, its already peak

[midnight stream]

You is right sah

[twin flower]

I know Chain Glaives exist

So why not

[grizzled plover]

Chainsaw buttspike too

[neon ice]

We reaching for the stars at this point

[grizzled plover]

Four chainsaws on one weapon

[twin flower]

Someone told me Hank mentioned there might be new weapons for all the classes along with Skitarii

[patent grove]

2 chainsaws 1 cup

[twin flower]

Here's hoping tho

[grizzled plover]

Give Zealot the Cawdor Chainglaive that has a built in flamethrower

[grizzled plover]

The special attack can fire a jet of flame and temporarily ignite the glaive

[grizzled plover]

Polearms please god I am so tired of not having proper polearms to outrange with

Pickaxe aside, the pickaxe counts

[midnight stream]

Pickaxe is a polearm?

[hazy valley]

Polearms and glaives would be very fun

I was hoping for an Omnissiah Axe with the new AdMech class but that's not happening

[grizzled plover]

It is a piercing weapon at the end of a seven foot pole

[junior crag]

who needs ranged guns when you got a ranged melee

[grizzled plover]

Thank you Kruber

[junior crag]

idk what that is

[hazy valley]

Vermintide guy

fancy moustache

crushes on an Elf

[grizzled plover]

Kruber from Darktide has a halberd that outranges every other melee weapon, some ranged attacks, even grenade throwing range

[patent grove]

No omnissiah axe seems like a big oversight

[grizzled plover]

Skitarii don't use the Omnissian Axe

[twin flower]

I just want Vet to have a heavy Stubber or the Hotshot Las 🙏

ISS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR

[hazy valley]

I don't think Skitarii use those but then idk

[grizzled plover]

It's a priest only weapon

[patent grove]

Ahh

[twin flower]

We got working models in game already, the scav gunners use it RAAAHH

[grizzled plover]

And you only get one if you're like an ACTUAL priest

Not some jobber

[hazy valley]

I will have to settle for Pasqual using it in Rogue Trader

[grizzled plover]

Skitarii use taser lances

I would have liked that

[midnight stream]

I gave him a melta gun

He never lived that long when I sent him into melee

[patent grove]

The transonic blade weapons they use, is there a 2h sword?

[hazy valley]

true but the axe is sexy

[grizzled plover]

Looks like it

[hazy valley]

and it's extra style points to finish someone with it

[midnight stream]

It's the wielder not the axe

[grizzled plover]

I see two cutlasses, one potential longsword, and ANOTHER shock maul

[hazy valley]

I'd kiss Pasqual yeah

[grizzled plover]

ope not a longsword

All three look to be one handed

[astral basin]

I stan the polearm
“Catachan deuling glaive” is something someone heres been begging for as long as ive been in here

[midnight stream]

Pasqal is definitely waifu material

[hazy valley]

you summoned them

[lethal solstice]

Yeah cause its kinda awesome (I just want a glaive and it has precedent in the inq kt)

If I'm not busy or lazy I could actually make a moveset for it

I already have some concepts worked out

[grizzled plover]

There's Catachan Dueling Glaive and Cawdor Extermination Chainglaive for Zealot, Hunting Lance and Catachan Dueling Glaive for Veteran

Taser Lances for Skitarii

[lethal solstice]

Also if you wanna rangecheck, relic has like 3 meters or something stupid

[carmine steppe]

We need more Catachan media

[lethal solstice]

Catachan is just rambo+aliens

[grizzled plover]

I would work hunting lances as melees with an ammo counter. You use special attack to detonate the payload, blowing it up and having to reload your spear

[lethal solstice]

Literally

I just think the glaive is cool

[carmine steppe]

Yeah I know, I have read the books

[patent grove]

Aka Contra

[grizzled plover]

Since hunting lance payloads are shaped charges you wouldn't destroy the spear

[hazy valley]

I'd love a Catachan themed cosmetics week but I think Tanith First and Only are next on the design list

[astral basin]

I think the initial reason to disinclude polearms was to help distinguish it from vermintide combat
But like
The gameplay has been overhauled since then

[lethal solstice]

I think that for a polearm to work best it needs the special to not be held down by a special feature like a charge or activation

[patent grove]

Up up down down left right left right AB start

[grizzled plover]

It's distinguished from Vermintide melee by being bad

[carmine steppe]

Anyone playing Mechanicus II?

It's very fun so far

[hazy valley]

Goober was playing it

[grizzled plover]

Nah I'm farming the plasteel I'm gonna need when Skitty drops

[hazy valley]

I've been considering it

[lethal solstice]

My view on the glaive is that the special is a quick stagger res ignoring smack with the mace head on the bottom, which chains into different late moveset moves dependent on the mk

[patent grove]

Goober is

[astral basin]

Like. Heavy evis is literally a polearm moveset

[hazy valley]

I checked it on Steam and saw mixed reviews but all the mixed reviews are "I suck at the game and I'm stuck" so like

???

I'm not sure how to take that seriously

[carmine steppe]

They never played a turn based game in their life 😭

[wanton pier]

Your first mistake was looking at steam reviews

[hazy valley]

guys really think posting their skill issue is a valid critique LMFAO

[carmine steppe]

It's like XCOM but more compact

[grizzled plover]

You could have one glaive that does formation fighting quick stabs and down/upward diagonal swings and another one that does broad sweeps for controlling crowds and then a shorter version that's used as an actual dueling glaive that uses it like a quarterstaff with a gigantic fucking sword blade

[hazy valley]

who are these dudes?? game journalists???

[grizzled plover]

Game journos tend to be better than the average player lately tbf

Idk if people are just dumb or what

[lethal solstice]

I think it would be 2 marks, which have the same relationship the Relic Blades have
One is quick and simple and the other is a bit techier with a higher skill ceiling

[patent grove]

What do you mean more compact

[hazy valley]

I'm going off the meme that devs constantly make demos baby mode easy for game journalists because they'll give bad reviews if they can't figure out the tutorial

and they often struggle anyway

[thorn wedge]

does it have a tall, chosen, slightly molesty coded , alien sniper?

[lethal solstice]

While formation fighting moves are cool, I don't think they fit thematically for a Catachan weapon

[grizzled plover]

Nahh they need to go all in on the wonderful variations of polearms

[lethal solstice]

Considering they're always out of dense formation

[neon ice]

Ive been playing warhammer survivors demo, its genuinely fun once you get the hang of it.

[grizzled plover]

They have like 3 years of no poles to make up for

[neon ice]

I should see if theres a warhammer survivors discord

[lethal solstice]

Have that be another one

[thorn wedge]

hey chuds

[grizzled plover]

Tbf formation fighting with polearms is designed to allow you to condense into smaller teams so you can be bristley and dangerous to flankers and skirmishers

[thorn wedge]

while we're reccomending games

[gaunt wind]

Dean Takahashi has done irreparable damage to game journalist credibility lol

[thorn wedge]

I say

[lethal solstice]

Give that to the hunting lance or smth, let my keep my baby

[astral basin]

I wanna play it
I heard it was essentially a qol revamp of mechanicus 1
The main feature i hated about mech1 being me not being able to just sit there and form a firing line to blast the units off the map in as many turns as i wanted
also necron campaign

[thorn wedge]

if you liked ftl

try out void war

[hazy valley]

I saw someone recommending Speed Freaks too

[feral vessel]

hello 8kitbit, hello TechNoir by Perturbator, hello FDD, hello Catachan guy, hello Freeboota, hello Khorne's portfolio, hello Impact, hello Skully

[thorn wedge]

is bigger ftl thats 40k themed

[feral vessel]

WORK
TODAY

[lethal solstice]

the 40$ carbon copy?

[twin flower]

Plant

[patent grove]

Gm sergal

[thorn wedge]

40$?

[grizzled plover]

Play rimworld if you can afford the insane dlc costs

[wanton pier]

Wasn't that infamous video of someone failing a tutorial (cuphead I think?) not even a game reviewer.

[thorn wedge]

its 15 bucks rn

[feral vessel]

mac did u see the new art of my plant character.

[patent grove]

Is this a good thing

[carmine steppe]

XCOM maps are bigger, the map isn't revealed so part of the gameplay is the cat and mouse game and you might have some complex objectives.
Mechanicus II maps are smaller, you get dropped into a small plaza, every enemy is revealed and ready to scrap, objectives are simpler

[lethal solstice]

Sorry, 20$
I remembered that it was twice the price of FTL, and thought ftl was 20

I was half correct

[thorn wedge]

in fairness

its on sale rn

[twin flower]

is it hawt

[thorn wedge]

its usually 20

[feral vessel]

be the judge of that..

[patent grove]

Gotcha. Does Mechanicus have permanent troop loss?

[carmine steppe]

Also you have those events while you see the character go from point A to point B

[carmine steppe]

No, but they do have to recover if they take a lot of damage

Your leaders and their units might have to rest for 1-2 missions

[thorn wedge]

its got alot of fun toys

[wanton pier]

From what I remember of Mechanicus 1 it was more simple than Xcom, no cover mechanics and only tech priests have classes while every other unit is far more basic.

[astral basin]

Xcom is fine and all
But for being a guerilla ops strategy game its kinda shit

[thorn wedge]

im a big fan of the limited ammo lances that start fully charged and punch through shields like nothing

because they only have like

2 shots per gun per fight

so I can RP snake eater ocelott

[carmine steppe]

I like Mechanicus 2 wayyy more (cause I can play as the good guys)

[thorn wedge]

get a new cannon and

6 shots

I have 6 shots now

[astral basin]

New art?

[thorn wedge]

[wanton pier]

Xcom:EU is absurdly easy to cheese with how you could wait to ambush enemy squads, you always had the advantage

[feral vessel]

guh

[astral basin]

I can be ignored

[thorn wedge]

and if those 6 shots dont kill the enemy ship

I bravely run away

[carmine steppe]

XCOM is a great game but I cannot afford to lose an 80% chance shot at someone who is gonna kill my units next turn, and I will save scum

[wanton pier]

Both the expansion and 2 went out of their way to limit that cheese strategy by adding Meld/Timers.

[thorn wedge]

yeah but like

2 has hot snake women that eat you

so I mean

sliding scale

[hazy valley]

tbh I have no idea

[carmine steppe]

Same thing happens to me with something like darkest dungeon, I do not want to repeat several hours of gameplay cause the game just goes "tough luck buddy, your units are dead to crit damage"

[thorn wedge]

but void war

it goes much harder into

[hazy valley]

I'm still just mad about Fallout 4 having an awful intro designed entirely to cater to idiot game journalists

[thorn wedge]

boarding mechanics

[astral basin]

Did you know that save scumming guarantees the next roll you do to be a fail?

[wanton pier]

Been playing Mewgenics and I know the feeling, fuck Steven.

[thorn wedge]

with loot that you can only get

[hazy valley]

Power Armour AND fighting a Deathclaw within the first 10 minutes of the game?? Idiot moves

[thorn wedge]

a built in assult drop pod system

a room that prints disposable servitors

[patent grove]

Not me running to unplug my xbox when my permadeath no man's sky guy died

[carmine steppe]

Completely wrong, I have done so multiple times on XCOM 1 and 2, that's how I finished those games

[warm gyro]

can i get a hello

[thorn wedge]

the starting character is a primarch with a personal teleporter

[hazy valley]

OH also hiya!

[twin flower]

Turbo my Peter

[wanton pier]

From what I remember it remembers the result but if you do a different action it rolls again

[feral vessel]

hello wrong dump stat

[thorn wedge]

perturabo:

can we stop with the chaos shit for ONE SECOND and come up with a practical strategy

horus:

no.

[carmine steppe]

I don't mind that, my problem with fallout 4 are the randomly generated missions to pad out the fuck out of the game

[warm gyro]

The Dump Stat Is Mobility Unless It's One Of Those Niche Cases Where It Isn't

alas I can't fit that in my name

[hazy valley]

I hated that too. Fallout 4 was so mid

[carmine steppe]

And only having 4 choices of dialogue at all times

[thorn wedge]

secretly 1 choice

[warm gyro]

Bethesda in general is terrible

Don't worry guys the modders will make the game good

[carmine steppe]

Yes, no, sarcastic (yes but it pisses off people), neutral (why are you even playing the game ahh button)

[hazy valley]

I really liked Fallout 3

and FNV

[carmine steppe]

No, well at least they didn't used to be

[feral vessel]

fnv fans preparing to crucify you rn

[hazy valley]

I have F76 but haven't tried it

[warm gyro]

Yeah it's me

FO3 is the worst Fallout

[thorn wedge]

which option means I dont have to shoot raiders in a copy paste appartment building?

[hazy valley]

what if I want them to bully me

[thorn wedge]

none ❤️

[carmine steppe]

Skyrim was genre defining, fallout 3 was good but New Vegas was amazing

[hazy valley]

it's goofy and charming but I don't take it seriously and that's probably why I can have fun with it

Republic of Dave?? LMFAO

the game is so dumb

[feral vessel]

puppygirl activities /j

[wanton pier]

I have a soft spot for 3, even though its probably my least favorite 3d fallout.

[carmine steppe]

Skyrim was so huge they pretty much rode the company on the back of it

[warm gyro]

Fallout 4's plot is doodoo but at least it has some good companions. And I can spend hours upon hours obsessing over settlement building

[hazy valley]

no I'm a cat

[astral basin]

Ive been doing a save on mobile to prep myself for console
Bc like. Console controls for any strat game sucks
I shit you not every time i do i have to reload 12 more times for the 92% shot i plan to take to actually succeed

[thorn wedge]

I liked having a fleet of death robots

[feral vessel]

unironically hate steel-tipped boots they're so uncomfortable

[carmine steppe]

I love the concept of the main story, but progressing through the game feels and is like a chore, you don't want your game process to feel like a chore

[feral vessel]

about to tear off the skin on my soles with these things smh

[hazy valley]

Nick sassing everyone was nice. I also really liked Deacon. Curie is adorable but I feel weird about romance with her because genetically she's your relative and that feels like weird robot incest. I want to love Cait but she's not my type. Piper is more my style (annoying, goofy)

tbh I don't remember anyone else

[carmine steppe]

Damn, yeah I can't have that happen while playing the game, it just wastes so much time

[hazy valley]

I kinda wish I could romance Deacon

[wanton pier]

Xcom 2 had a lot of annoying "cinematic" camera stuff that just wastes time

[thorn wedge]

I like curie

but

[twin flower]

I got an annoying splinter out that was on my fingy

[thorn wedge]

bethesda are too much cowards

to let you romance the robot

[placid knoll]

Tbh, she sometimes feel like a curious child than robot

Love that

[carmine steppe]

It's part of the game tho, I can respect it although when stacked it gets obnoxious (and hilarious)

[thorn wedge]

yeah my wife is a miss nanny

fuck you

[carmine steppe]

They just got lazy with the writing for secondary missions and world building

[thorn wedge]

but no

[hazy valley]

you can get that guy in Diamond City married to his Miss Nanny

[warm gyro]

Nick is the best

[thorn wedge]

can you romance nick?

you should be able too

[hazy valley]

Far Harbour with Nick start to finish is the true way but I hated the dumb box puzzle

[warm gyro]

Favorite in the series is Veronica though

[hazy valley]

You cannot romance Nick

[thorn wedge]

my thing with far harbor is

[hazy valley]

Veronica Santangelo is my ABSOLUTE FAV

[warm gyro]

Sadly not

[hazy valley]

the way she squeals when you give her a dress is burned into my memory

[thorn wedge]

the salty old man is a cool companion

[hazy valley]

I would romance Veronica if it were at all possible

[thorn wedge]

your ass isnt keeping him over nick

[warm gyro]

truth nuke

[wanton pier]

Fallout 4 was really hampered by the settlement/radiant quest stuff. When it actually did traditional Fallout quests it was good (like Cabot questline, USS Constitution and most of Far Harbour)

[hazy valley]

Fallout 4 was a fucking empty game

and they basically told you to go build it yourself

most of the game is settlement building

[thorn wedge]

in fairness

I made some sick fucking settlements

but even to do that

[carmine steppe]

Yeah that's my main issue, they got lazy and started to make random quests you have to do to get to the actual quests

[thorn wedge]

I had to use the item limit glitch liberally

[hazy valley]

200 hours of collecting trash for 10 hours of base building

suffering

[astral basin]

Fo4 walked so starfield could fall

[hazy valley]

LMFAO

[thorn wedge]

starfield...

[carmine steppe]

Starfield just like fallout 4 have good games, they are just deep in the black tar of padding

[wanton pier]

I enjoy the base building but most of the settlements being empty lots or populated by 4 people is really noticable.

[hazy valley]

I never played Starfield because it wasn't my vibe but I was thankful because reviews said it was awful

[warm gyro]

Starfield's purpose is to be a template for Star Wars mods

[hazy valley]

I had one friend who enjoyed it for what it was

[warm gyro]

Nothing else

[hazy valley]

and every other friend who tried it thought it was hot garbage

[misty trench]

Fo4 crawled so starfield could tear its ACL right out the gate

[carmine steppe]

If they just focused more on the actual game starfield would have been so much better

[thorn wedge]

I think

[carmine steppe]

It's not hot garbage it's a decent game that has some stupid ideas

[thorn wedge]

if they said at rip

[hazy valley]

I keep wanting to try F76 because I've heard it's better now

[thorn wedge]

the whole new game plus

thing

[misty trench]

I didn't buy starfield because I didn't wanna fall for it again

[thorn wedge]

it would have been better

[thorn wedge]

smarter than me

see my whole thing was

okay

[carmine steppe]

I played it with the gamepass

[hazy valley]

after the disaster of F76 and the awkward FO4 I didn't trust them trying to run a new IP tbh

[thorn wedge]

after 76 happend

[wanton pier]

Its like every other bethesda game two steps forward followed by two steps back. Resulting in a 6/10 game.

[hazy valley]

I barely trust them enough to do a new Elder Scrolls entry

[thorn wedge]

they cant afford to fuck this up

[hazy valley]

I'll still get the new Elder Scrolls

[misty trench]

like Fo4 at least really is just skyrim with guns so you still get some decent sandboxing and mods

[hazy valley]

I'll probably be disappointed

[carmine steppe]

F76 release and controversies are hilarious

[cosmic burrow]

Writing is ass

[thorn wedge]

me when I go to a lvl 46 area

shoot a guy till he dies

and now * I * have the death gun

[carmine steppe]

They have been doing elder scrolls online for a while now

[thorn wedge]

I wasnt even trying to do that but

[misty trench]

ESO I hear is actually not bad?

[hazy valley]

can't wait to see the new Elder Scrolls entry in another decade after they showcased a screensaver SEVEN FUCKING YEARS AGO

[thorn wedge]

I figured the entire point was to go to whatever the fuck planet and hang out

[carmine steppe]

It's been going for like 7+ years so yeah

[true widget]

rituals are so scary holy shit

[cosmic burrow]

Eso is skyrim but a bit modernized and a lot bigger

[wanton pier]

I liked the traits in Starfield. Some neat ideas there

[thorn wedge]

ive been wanting to play eso but my thing is ffxiv

granted

[hazy valley]

sure and they showed off a funny desktop wallpaper seven years ago announcing the new Elder Scrolls and still haven't done anything with it

[thorn wedge]

my problem with ffxiv is

I do the same rotation over and over

and go

man

I could play darktide right now

[misty trench]

I'm playing WoW atm and having a decent time

[thorn wedge]

I like variety in games

[misty trench]

and I used to HATE WoW

[hazy valley]

yeah that's why I have every class at 100

I just play different classes

[carmine steppe]

Yeah cause they weren't working on it at that time

[hazy valley]

swapping from NIN to MNK ends up feeling totally different

[thorn wedge]

I dont wanna play WHM

im still bitter

about shadowbringers whm

[hazy valley]

it was such a dumb move they were just so desperate to show something LMFAO

[cosmic burrow]

I wont play eso. Not enough time for that

[carmine steppe]

Im playing Mechanicus II, the necrons rule

[wanton pier]

Every few years I get into WoW again then lose all motivation to play. I checked out last during Shadowlands

[thorn wedge]

I like ffxiv dearly

but gameplaywise its always

I want to play other game slightly more

so I end up not playing ffxiv

[hazy valley]

I main a White Mage so my single braincell is still enjoying pressing my 1 button rotation of Glare

[thorn wedge]

and like

I have a house on fucking balmung

im part of the cult

but

[cosmic burrow]

Play grimdawn mate

Its good game

[hazy valley]

I think that's why I prefer healers anyway. Rotations sorta end up feeling more or less predictable but reacting to players eating damage or planning for incoming damage is more fun

[thorn wedge]

I like healers

[hazy valley]

And it's a lot more fun flexing healer skill keeping a group alive

[thorn wedge]

I will never forgive the fucking chuds who got healers to have 2 dps buttons

[hazy valley]

I have a Lavender Beds house on Mateus

I'm really glad people decided to take a break during Dawntrail

[thorn wedge]

I used to have shadow flare

[hazy valley]

I never thought I'd get a house here

LOL

[thorn wedge]

I used to have fucking miasma 3

[hazy valley]

it felt impossible

[thorn wedge]

see my thing was

[cosmic burrow]

Only yhing about ff14 i know is the rabbit people

[thorn wedge]

I always wanted a restoration house

[misty trench]

based

[thorn wedge]

and when emepryum finally dropped I lost the lottery for the house I wanted

sure

fine

thats how the cookie crumbles

but

[hazy valley]

the old system for bidding on houses was AWFUL

[thorn wedge]

the person who GOT the house

[hazy valley]

spam clicker bots posting up by signs

[misty trench]

dragonflight, the war within and midnight has held my attention pretty well so far

[thorn wedge]

made a fire themed lodge all in reds and shit

in my perfect spot

all

clashing with the snow and stone

them winning I can forgive

them making the plot ugly

[flat sandal]

Hello there

[hazy valley]

no joke a friend designed a Kugane style home in Empyreum and had angry people telling him to change his house LMFAO it was so goofy

we called them the Ishgardian HOA

[thorn wedge]

I finally got a plot but

its like

mathmatically away from every market board

[cosmic burrow]

If i would play wow it would play the wow classic

[carmine steppe]

The necron campaign is a lot more dramatic than I thought it would be, I expected it to be only admech slaughter

[thorn wedge]

I was just putting in the lotteries

[misty trench]

although there are chunks of the game where I wonder if the issues are being caused by AI vibe coding or smth

[thorn wedge]

and when I won I kinda was hit with the

I never thought id get this far

[hazy valley]

honestly same

[thorn wedge]

like that application wasnt supposed to win

[jaunty path]

Vibing my code rn

[thorn wedge]

what the fuck do you mean I won the house

[hazy valley]

I haven't even decorated my house proper yet

[thorn wedge]

its fucking balmung

you dont win a house on balmung

[hazy valley]

yeah you really never get a house on Balmung

thank Dawntrail for giving that window of opportunity I guess LOL

[jaunty path]

White Claw time

[wanton pier]

I kept up with what was happening during Dragonflight but haven't been paying too much attention to War Within and Midnight

[thorn wedge]

I got in on that

''no worldly irl natural disasters are happening so timers are unfreezing'' wave of abandoned houses

because people just forgot
