I have been playing a lot of Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral and memorizing what each character likes can be a bit daunting at times so I use it a lot. It also helps when you are trying to figure out certain character’s schedule and where specific items are found....
Here are two random encounter maps I made in an afternoon. I can put these out pretty quickly, so its kind of perfect for a sandbox game like the one I’m running. Keeps things fresh, even if they’re not as pretty as something produced professionally....
The only part of it that I think is really out of place and would make me unhappy is that it’s the first counterspell he used.
If that’s been a pattern and it’s a higher lethality game in general, then all’s fair. But springing a counterspell on them at the last moment might make me a bit… bitter.
Two games keep surfacing more than any other, Starfield, which landed a singular nomination for Best RPG, and Hogwarts Legacy, which got exactly zero nominations acros...
Starfield was extremely hyped and extremely mid imo so I’m surprised it got the nomination that it did. If Starfield wins ‘Best RPG’ when Baldur’s Gate 3 is an option I will be incredibly disappointed. Hell, I’d take Lies Of P over Starfield. Might as well fuckin nominate Skyrim again.

Fabricate would work fantastically, and I think you’re underestimating the amount of money you can make with some craftsman stuff.
People will pay a lot for well done custom made stuff. Knives, swords, furniture… all of it is worth a sizable amount once you have any kind of reputation and start taking commissions. I mean thousand dollar chandeliers and multiple thousand dollar tables.
Basically just a list of topics the DM and the players might be uncomfortable with or just not tolerate.
A lot of people use ‘lines and veils’ where a line is a hard no and a veil is fine as long as it’s happening offscreen.
As an example, as the DM I would have sexual assault down as a line. I just don’t want it in my games. A veil would be something where it can happen and be referenced but not occur in front of us or be overly dwelled on. I’d have sex in general as a veil as well as things like torture. I’m just not comfortable enough with those topics to roleplay them actively.
Seeing that they need quite a lot of clean water, which is not widely available everywhere during the entire year in big amounts, especially with these droughts due to climate change.
The solution there is that ideally no human is allowed to make a mistake significant enough to have any impact.
If Bob the nuclear engineer does something fucking stupid, but there’s an automated failsafe that resolves the problem… was there really that big of a problem?
It would require a constitutional amendment to outright ban guns, and our Congress can’t agree on year to year budgeting. Getting the required votes to ban guns would be functionally impossible. Honestly even if it didn’t require an amendment I don’t think it would be realistically passed as a regular law.
So: banning guns outright is off the table entirely.
More gun controls always seemed to be approached in an incredibly stupid way- they tend to ban the scary things rather than the dangerous things.
…beers? 4-5 beers over the course of a night is fine. Especially if you’re a larger person. I’m a pretty big dude and unless I’m shotgunning them I can drink 2-3 beers and barely be tipsy.
I don’t even drink often, either.
Now if it’s every night or something there might be an issue.
I was thinking about how fire guns are very loud and how its worst in close environments (I had never shot a gun cuz im not american) and I remembered the Mirror room scene in John Wick Chapter 2....
Basically every modern cartridge is supersonic unless they’re specifically underpowered to make them subsonic.
The smallest thing you’re going to regularly encounter is .22 LR- for context this is the kind of thing you’d use to hunt very small animals- and even that straddles the line of super/subsonic.
Basically what I’m getting at is that it doesn’t need a “large gun”.
That’s fair. In the UK if you wanna see some old stuff you can just… go see some old stuff.
Meanwhile my entire town(and actually the majority of the state lol) barring like three houses was burned quite literally to the ground during the civil war so nothing predates that.
I’m upgrading because my phone is losing (lost?) support. I use a OnePlus 7 Pro and love it and wouldn’t bother upgrading otherwise. I’d appreciate some recommendations of android phones you like, please....
God I deeply wish phones would get smaller. Instead it feels like they’re constantly getting larger and larger. It’s insane and soon I’ll need bigger pockets.
Also, this reminds me a bit of the Kineticist from Pathfinder 1e. Not a copy at all, just some of the same ideas. Which is cool because I really loved the Kineticist.
That is an absolutely terrible idea?? Is it an AIO “with blood in it we swear” or a custom loop? Honestly this is the second worst idea I’ve seen someone have when it comes to strange PC cooling loops. Jayztwocents and that beer cooled abomination he made for Post Malone takes the #1 spot.
I am talking about downloading to my disk not to Spotify App. Now, is there a way to download songs you like in their highest quality? Zorify and Spot-Dl requires spotify premium and YT-music premium respectively if I am not wrong. What are my options now?...
Well, you’re not like any conservative I’ve ever spoken with. At least not in the America sense of the word- maybe it’s different in a European context.
I tend to drop basically every political topic with anyone that actually identifies themselves that way. In my experience that is not going to lead to any kind of pleasant conversation or debate so I just don’t engage.
“Non-hateful conservative” basically reads like an oxymoron to me.
I’m not a developer, for the record, but I was also pretty impressed with Starfield’s lack of bugs. It’s still got some, but it’s definitely at the ‘normal and acceptable’ level. Not how Bethesda usually releases games.
one of Cyberpunk 2077’s Ukrainian dialogue line alters “We’re fucking through” to a Ukrainian phrase that roughly means “Go fuck yourself in the same direction as the ship did”.
One line of police dialogue referring to the game’s Scavengers faction has been altered from the English “Couldn’t all these assholes bite it out in the Badlands?” to a Ukrainian phrase that translates as “Couldn’t all this rusnia bite it out in the Badlands?”
Some of the phrasing in the inventory-
There are also apparent references on inventory screens to Ukrainian state messaging during the war. “‘Є перевага’ literally means ‘there is an advantage’,” Tarasov told me. "A reference to the governmental digital initiatives’ branding during Zelensky’s tenure
And some graffiti-
There also appears to be brand new graffiti in the game that references Russia’s occupation of Crimea in 2014. “The graffiti represents the outlines of Crimea, the peninsula that was illegally annexed from Ukraine by russia in 2014,” Tarasov told me. “Juxtaposed are the Ukrainian coat of arms and taraq tamga (the symbol of Crimean Tatars).” The suggestion is that in Cyberpunk 2077’s world, Crimea is part of Ukraine.
I had a 15 minute session once because I offhandedly gave my players a foldable boat like 15 sessions before. I had intended for them to have to cross a mountain range controlled by Dwarfs who’d ask them to assist with a dragon hunt in exchange for passage.
Dear patient lemmings, I am in need of your help. I’m searching for games that have some GOD DAAMN OSTs and come with a great story or/and gameplay....
That’s amusing. I played that a couple months ago. I don’t recall ever selecting a pronoun, but I’m sure I did and then just moved on like a normal person.
It has great bones. The game is incredibly smooth, and the gunplay is fantastic. Their monetization is absolute trash, though. I absolutely despise their seasonal system, and they keep vaulting shit I’ve paid for.
Plus they keep changing the fucking minimum light! Twice since release, I think, they’ve basically reset me so that I’m functionally a brand new player with some neat level 1 exotics I now have to farm shit to keep fusing to level up.

Why is the DEA and ATF separate? Seems like they cover similar things from similar circles.
Is it because alcohol, tobacco, and firearms also have legal pathways? So they spend time tracking down cheats and checking/enforcing regulations?
