is joke

[blazing maple]

I give up

[sour rivet]

perhaps you should try sleeping on it

[marsh cargo]

[pliant meteor]

Sigh... gotta pull a double shift

Its gonna be pain later

[green granite]

Man

I want to get a Makarov

[blazing maple]

imagine how nice the sleep is gonna feel after all that

[green granite]

Where can I even find one

[pliant meteor]

Conked out for sure.

[sour rivet]

and then you'll wake up restless

[pliant meteor]

Thats 20 hours of work for you.

Well me that is..

[sour rivet]

sounds kinda cringe

and unhealthy

[pliant meteor]

It is but I have a few days off after.

[untold spear]

extra pay?

[pliant meteor]

Mhmm

[untold spear]

huh

[green granite]

My friend pulled 3 16-hour shift every other week

Dude always complain he feels shitty after and I told him to take it easy

Dude never listens

Ill keep that in mind

Tho I have been pulling a lot of night shifts lately. Really isnt helping me resolve my insomnia but what can you do.

death car

[arctic flicker]

I tried using the 120mm mortar, rather disappointing

[uneven sapphire]

Hmm

no matter

i'll try it

if its bad i'Ll just load the save back

[arctic flicker]

At this point in my playthrough I have 500+ spare squaddies, thinking I should remove my Exwoo for another AI Logistics

Been playing this a bit too hard lol

[uneven sapphire]

yeag thers not a lot of content rn

[pallid sapphire]

i feel the same

[timid hollow]

i think its okay

[pallid sapphire]

waiting for content updates rn

[timid hollow]

for ea at least

i think they said more planets will come

[arctic flicker]

I played Menace too hard, I haven't gotten a Menace op in like 10 operations now lol

[hexed stag]

https://youtu.be/EKsFKfvpjo8

[arctic flicker]

3 more planets yeah, which would make sense then having to juggle 6 planets worth of potential ops for faction rep

which will make that +1 to op timer worth it

[timid hollow]

and there will be probably some cool mods at some point

[arctic flicker]

armor supply could be reworked slightly in cost

[timid hollow]

how much supplies do you have in your ops now

[arctic flicker]

like 2.9K on normal

[timid hollow]

oh ok

im at 2.1 already

[arctic flicker]

I'm fairly certain having at least 1 of everything increases the maximum supply limit

[timid hollow]

probably gonna switch my exwoo to second ai logs soon

[arctic flicker]

also if you're having issues with blackmarket having bad goods, there's a mod on nexus that brings the lower tier stuff up higher so you can purchase em

so many good things are low rarity so they don't show up in longer playthroughs

Been using this for vamp now since its quite a bit cheaper for slightly lower stats

[upbeat verge]

COCK

[snow tree]

[left mantle]

why tf was I pinged for this one

[pallid sapphire]

Mhhh

my Father bought BL4

Family sharing gave me the Randy

[sour rivet]

are you gonn play it

[pallid sapphire]

100% not

i would rather remake all previous titles and call it the "undirectors" cut

and stuff it up randys ass

Which is obviously the most chad move one could do

[slim magnet]

game at least looks better than 3

[sour rivet]

can you add playable krieg to all of them if you remake them

[slim magnet]

even at the sorry state it's currently at

[sour rivet]

dont make any changes just port his bl2 self to all games

[pallid sapphire]

ofc why not,even if hes just your imaginary friend in earlier titles then

[sour rivet]

is the performance STILL ass?

[slim magnet]

idk i mean in like every other way it's better

except map design but that's just seamless open world for you

[pallid sapphire]

[blazing maple]

[latent hazel]

holy self scam

[sour rivet]

are you taking your joy sam

[blazing maple]

no

I am joy

[dry nova]

we def getting a bl2 remastered

[sour rivet]

nnoooo?

[dry nova]

since bl1 got enhanced

[sour rivet]

take your joy

[slim magnet]

ok and like what's it gonna even be

borderlands 2 but on 64bit and not moddable

[blazing maple]

I love that this barrow just has a random giant door and spiral staircase at the start since whoeever designed this dungeon just... forget about scaling

[slim magnet]

MAYBE the community patch balance changes applied by default MAYBE

[sour rivet]

honestly just make bl2 64bit and call it a day

[sour rivet]

what dungeon

[slim magnet]

like i love the game but in this day and age i just can not play it without the community patch

[sour rivet]

oh nvm

[sour rivet]

dude

its so good

it made kreig BETTER!

[slim magnet]

but it didn't do like anything to krieg other than fix scaling on the dynamite chuck skill

and re enable the hellfire rambles

[sour rivet]

that one is optional

[slim magnet]

krieg was already the only class in the game that was completely playable and balanced on all of its skills

[sour rivet]

but this was very good

i prolly used a different mod for perk changes then?

[pallid sapphire]

il sell it to you for 150€

[supple lotus]

already banned

[pallid sapphire]

lel

xD

that was fast

[sour rivet]

i didnt even get a chance to read the message

[pallid sapphire]

[sour rivet]

i thought it was talking about stalger and ignored it unconciously

[slim magnet]

silent hill 2 remake for 25 bucks at starbucks?

[pallid sapphire]

yeah.

[sour rivet]

oh

it was reborn i used

[slim magnet]

that's crazy i love me some overpriced zero taste coffee

[pallid sapphire]

Starbucks coffee is shit

Their caramel stuff is great

[slim magnet]

a 150ml cup of hot tap water for 10usd? sign me the fuck up

[sour rivet]

it's such a downgrade

[supple lotus]

i dont disagree on that

[proven tundra]

holy shit
did they buff the cultist or am I just rusty

[slim magnet]

on which claim tho 😡

like the main issues with teamspeak are still there

[supple lotus]

ye, its still a downgrade - ontop its almost impossible to migrate communities

[marsh cargo]

arent ts servers paid ?

[slim magnet]

and the social aspect is just not a thing

yeah unless you have server hardware

[supple lotus]

or self hosted

[copper vapor]

you can host your own and iirc there's a "global free server" where you can create your own room temporarily. at least back in ts3 this was a thing

[marsh cargo]

damn

[supple lotus]

back back then it was great

[slim magnet]

imagine joining the global server and only hear "Hey! Wake up!" 24/7

[supple lotus]

but i kinda dont miss it

[copper vapor]

you can create your own room in the server and lock it with a password so randos can't enter

... or at least you could back then

[uneven sapphire]

i fucking hate civ saving missions

so ass

[slim magnet]

ye but you can still poke people

even if they are in locked rooms

The 500kg is just a distraction

[sour rivet]

ok rattlegore

[timber oxide]

I need to reload my eruptor

Group of enemies? Eruptor
Fabricators, bug holes or squid ships? Eruptor
Heavy units? Eruptor
Traitors and weirdos? Believe it or not, Eruptor

[sour rivet]

this is how dave announced the announcment today

[sour rivet]

eruptor user

[timber oxide]

I've been using it since it was medium pen

Back when it was kinda useless

[sour rivet]

i dont remember the eruptor ever being useless

[timber oxide]

It was outclassed by the crossbow in every single way

Now it outclasses the crossbow

It wasn't a very practical weapon to use upon release

It only received heavy penetration almost a year after introduction

And to be honest

The heavy penetration is barely noticeable

You don't really use the eruptor to kill heavies as your first choice

And the stuff that was already being killed by it doesn't die any faster

[sour rivet]

i talk about wanting more guns with med pen but in all honestly i just want an even amount of light pen and medium pen

always feels like theres more than the other

[timber oxide]

Oh I just remembered

Eruptor was so sluggish

[sour rivet]

i swear i remember people praising the shit outta the eruptor

[timber oxide]

It received an ergonomics buff on may 2025, from -14 ergo to 25 ergo

[green granite]

is the announcement autistic?

[timber oxide]

Now you can build it to have the same amount of ergonomics as a liberator

Which is a huge difference

[timber oxide]

It was always very handy for destroying fabricators and bug holes, but it was outclassed by the crossbow anyways

It wasn't a bad weapon

It was just worse than the other explosive weapon released alongside it

[green granite]

nice

@uneven sapphire

let's build ourselves a Legal Panzerfaust

[uneven sapphire]

yes

[timber oxide]

Legal where

[green granite]

your country is prob legal

[timber oxide]

Hmm

[green granite]

so we don't talk abouit it

[timber oxide]

I'd need to check the law

[slim magnet]

legal as in abusing a shit ton of loopholes that end up making it valid

[timber oxide]

Yeah just don't answer my question at all

And walk away

[verbal lodge]

nte, it's a next gen yakuza like gacha that's coming in a couple months
and guess what, the gacha system removed the 50/50

it respects your time

[timber oxide]

I just googled it

[snow tree]

[verbal lodge]

full name, Neverness to Everness

[timber oxide]

Developed by the same people who made tower of fantasy

Not fucking interested

[verbal lodge]

trust me it's good, unlike tower of dogshit

[timber oxide]

At all

No, I don't care

I don't fucking care

Tower of Dogshit destroyed them for me

They are dead to me

I have more respect for wuwa

Hell, I have more respect for horses

[verbal lodge]

fair, that's a blow they can't recover from

but i'll give them a chance with nte, we'll have to wait till full release

[timber oxide]

I may give them a chance but not immediately

Also, speaking of 50/50

The whole gacha system in endfield is essentially ass with some good ideas

some good ideas

[quiet yew]

even considering playing gacha games should be considered self-harm

[timber oxide]

Like, the fact that the guarantees don't carry over

[verbal lodge]

i hecking love waiting 10 patches to guarantee a character sig

[timber oxide]

But at least you know how much you need to roll

[verbal lodge]

they better address it in the next patch

[timber oxide]

Or the fact that weapon rolls use a separate currency

[quiet yew]

so like uhh
play an actual game?

[timber oxide]

But you gain it by doing normal rolls

They do one thing good but then do a lot of things bad

The update schedule is ass

[verbal lodge]

we had like 150 pulls except thats to be expected, even genshin had chonky pulls at release, its "honey moon" phase

this wouldnt be such an issue for me if they just let me pick to gacha weapons directly with resources like a normal gacha game would

[snow tree]

I find it crazy they play all those gacha games

Like....

[timber oxide]

I miss the old Arknights recruitment system

Can't fucking have it in a modern game

The factory building was cool until I ran out of stuff to automate

[quiet yew]

mental illness or something
if you want to gamble, go to a fucking casino, at least you'll actually have fun

Ecdycis (@Ecdycis)

I decided to speedrun Welcome to Dolltown and beat the game in under 30 minutes.
The whole game has 3 mandatory fights where none of them let you do the wrestling moves. 2 are entirely missable.
There is 10 minutes of real gameplay with about 20 minutes of mashing dialogue.

QRT: Ecdycis
Welcome to Doll Town is the most disappointing game I've ever played. Anyone who has purchased this game is actively being robbed and it's genuine false advertising.

Half of the content advertised isn't in the game.
5 total fights
1 whole missing hub missing from the steam page

Nevermind my recommendation

[timber oxide]

Horses (the animals) are cool
The horse gacha game is not

[pallid sapphire]

Gooner game as i said

[timber oxide]

The horse gacha game is still better than tower of dogshit

[sick trail]

They also use AI for bug fixing

[verbal lodge]

most people have a sunk cost fallacy concerning gachas
but imo, i just leave when the game stops getting interesting

[sick trail]

Really just a massive fumble

[verbal lodge]

or when there's no waifu to pull

[timber oxide]

I don't really care about the gacha aspect

I want the game itself to be fun

Gacha aspect is just there for me to spend my free resources I grinded

Kind of a way to make me play the game more because I have the reason to grind

[quiet yew]

that's the part I never understood
why not just google some softcore hentai if you want a waifu to look at
why blow hundreds of dollars

[timber oxide]

Why do you assume we spend money on it

These games are free to play

[quiet yew]

isn't that how gacha works

[timber oxide]

These games give you free stuff

[verbal lodge]

you can always just play the gacha as is

[timber oxide]

I have spent less money on all my gachas combined than on Warframe

[quiet yew]

to actually get cool shit, you have to either spend money or do some ludicrously tedious shit

[verbal lodge]

and not spend money, but that's how they get you

[timber oxide]

War fucking frame

[verbal lodge]

unless you have 0 self control, it's not hard to remain F2P

[quiet yew]

which is how much

[timber oxide]

I don't know the exact numbers but I can calculate them

[snow tree]

why do you assume we spend money on it
i spend money on it

You can't make this shit up

[timber oxide]

You missed the point

[snow tree]

[marsh cargo]

aah yes this topic

[timber oxide]

The point is that I do not spend my whole yearly earnings on a fucking video game because you think I do

[quiet yew]

idk man, if you have to calculate how much you've spent on it, you probably spent more than you should have

[timber oxide]

The point is that a lot of people don't spend any money on them

[snow tree]

I don't think how much you spend

[timber oxide]

You assume I spent more than I should so you do think how much I did spend

[verbal lodge]

[quiet yew]

[timber oxide]

Ok so according to my calculations, I have spent a total of $100 on all of my gacha games combined, including the ones I haven't played in a long time for reasons ranging from "I got bored" to "they shut down", in the meantime I spent at least $100 dollars on Warframe in the month of December alone because they kept giving me 75% discounts on platinum

And I was like "well, almost free platinum, shame if it went to waste"

[quiet yew]

"they shutdown"
yeah that's another thing, they can literally prevent you from accessing shit you paid for

isn't that fun

[timber oxide]

I don't really care to be honest

[quiet yew]

clearly

[timber oxide]

Yeah

[marsh cargo]

steam dies
And billions of games paid are lost

[timber oxide]

I mean, the "all of my gacha games" also includes stuff like Tower of Fantasy which I only played once and never spent anything on it because it was dogshit

[quiet yew]

except steam is steam and not some random gacha-slop maker based out of a chinese slum so there's some, you know, stability and shit

[marsh cargo]

tha concept is the same

[timber oxide]

But it doesn't really disprove what Sparter said

I have a ton of games on steam and if steam ever dies I lose them forever

[quiet yew]

concept, yes
probability, not even close

[timber oxide]

I have spent $10 on a random f2p game and if the game dies I lose those $10 forever

Why should I be upset about it, I know the risks

I mean, I don't give them the money because they force me to, I give them the money because I like the game and I want to support it

Should I stop supporting the games I like?

[quiet yew]

that's your business, obviously
I'm just saying that if I were in the market for softcore hentai, I'd choose literally anything else

[timber oxide]

I don't need to be in the market for softcore hentai, I can draw my own hentai

[verbal lodge]

oh yeah it's kinda fucked innit, you don't actually buy games you pay for
you just purchase the license to them, if anything happens you can lose it all

[upbeat verge]

theres ONCE again a blizzard outside and the entire town is covered in snow
I am about to lose it its almost march
@quiet yew @marsh cargo

[marsh cargo]

git fucked by snow

[quiet yew]

if I had even a shred of artistic talent when it comes to this shit, playing gacha would literally be below underwater cave diving on my list of priorities

[slim magnet]

valve has said that they have a contingency plan in the hypothetical case steam has to shut down but even then it's like hard to just blindly trust them

but in any case like what can you do

[quiet yew]

don't you just love cleaning your car
EVERY FUCKING DAY

[slim magnet]

physical media is dead anyways

[timber oxide]

I understand that people don't like gacha games but I believe that we should dislike games for stuff like stiff gameplay, boring story and exceptionally big file sizes for what the game offers, or being extremelly bugged

[teal spade]

me sitting in my house knowing that the next time I need to go to work in 5 days it's gonna be way warmer

[quiet yew]

yes, all those things + incessant microtransactions

[teal spade]

[timber oxide]

Like, the most important thing about the games that I play is that they are free, so if I don't like them I can just drop them without paying. Sure I lost 15 minutes of my life, but I didn't additionally lose $70

Was this the game you pinged me earlier or no

[copper vapor]

no, this was the other game I sent next to Toxic Commando

called Steel Artery

[sour rivet]

Ah

[quiet abyss]

steam community pages being slop as usual

[copper vapor]

it's a city management sim where the "citizens" decide for themselves what they want to do

and my citizens decide to not work and I can't "force" them to work in any way. I can't set a workstation as high priority or anything

[lucid latch]

[quiet yew]

I hate that corny-ass animated pfp

[copper vapor]

badly designed, yes

???

[copper vapor]

you can "freeze" workstations so that no one goes to work on them, but you can't do the 'opposite' in the sense of

flagging a station as high priority so there's always someone working on it

dunno if I can express this issue better

[sour rivet]

i think i get what you're saying

[marsh cargo]

maybe thats the challange for it reminds me to planet base

[quiet yew]

I really want to say something but I would spark major political shit

[copper vapor]

great, I love insurmountable challenges that I can't solve because the game has zero tools for it

I'll just have to wait until one of the citizens suddenly decides to go work

[lucid latch]

ok got the train moving in that steel artery game

... then I ran out of fuel and got stranded in a region with no coal for me to mine to produce more fuel THIS was my own fault and not the game's lmao

it's an interesting and quaint little sim, but too much is unexplained, or explained badly

had to fiddle around for almost 2 hours to figure shit out for myself because the tutorial sucks donkey dick

gotta build more facilities
then you gotta have more people to work those facilities
then you gotta have more sleeping cabins, toilets, showers and eateries
then suddenly my train was more vertical than horizontal

cue those cathedral tanks in Warhammer 40k

it's fun when things do get going, tho

YOOOOOOO NO WAYYYYYY

THANK YOU MICROSOFT I DIDNT KNOW THAT MENACE THAT I DOWNLOADED FROM STEAM WAS A FUCKING VIRUS

SURELY STEAM WOULD MISS VIRUS' ON THEIR PLATFORM

genuinely whoever made windows 11

needs to be taken by their balls and then have them twisted

[oblique belfry]

hoe

[thick plover]

and then the CEO deserves double of whatever ball twisting amount all the employees take

[timber oxide]

Pretty sure this would happen on W10 as well

Doesn't mean we can't twist the balls of these people anyways

They deserve it either way

[thick plover]

didn't happen to me on W10 once

I basically got forced to upgrade because Serbia isn't in the EU

there was no "keep windows 10" option shit just scheduled the upgrade

and said go fuck yourself

[timber oxide]

But did you have W10 when Menace released?

Like, I could verify that if I was interested in the game

But I'm not

[thick plover]

Pyrson it does it for every game pyrson

[timber oxide]

That's funny

My W11 doesn't do that

Isn't that just linux

[copper vapor]

the resources needed to build more were refined iron stuff (iron sheets and iron parts) and to make more of those, I needed to build a forge. And the forge needs iron sheets and iron parts. Of which I didn't have enough.

an ouroboros kinda problem

Not enough resources to build the thing that makes more of those exact same resources

s76 is a merc

tl;dr : Freja was helping overwatch strike force team (tracers squad) as a search and rescue operative but after overwatch shutdown she couldn't apply to anywhere cuz of her past. Because of this she just said fuck it and started hunting down bounties as a bounty hunter

also apparently she has a history with Emre
