I have started New Arc Line. There are currently three races to choose from: Human, Elf, and Dwarf. Humans and Dwarves can choose between Diesel Tech and Voodoo Shaman as classes. Dwarves choose between Steam Tech and Hellfire Mage. I am trying out a human Dieselpunk Gunslinger. The writing... has some problems. On the one hand, a lot of writers, they try too much. Lots of words, lots of fancy words, all to prove "Look ma, I have a vocabulary." I do not like that. Other people do. The writers seem to not have English as their mother tongue. The odd mistake here and there. The attempt to write "British" characters, with slang and all, without understanding the slang - thinking they do because they watched Austin Powers. We'll see though how the story goes. Mr Simon made a great first impression as NPCs go. Unlike Mick... who is a bit boring. Why is it so often in RPGs, that the first character to join your party is boring? I hope the story works out as interesting. Somehow other than Arcanum, there hasn't been a good tech vs magic RPG - Silverfall fell a bit short and was also a long long time ago. The game is a bit unstable. Trying to load a previous save can crash the game for me That's Early Access I guess.

I'm having issues with this game crashing in a certain spot (basically when its loading the next event) and even with NVIDIA Reflex Low Latency disabled, turned off Ray Tracing, FPS is set to 60 and I forced DirectX 11 in the Properties by using -dx11. Computer runs hot with this game but runs normal with all my other games. I've been able to stop the game and let cool to continue past crash points ( 2 so far). Here are my specs: 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-12650H (2.30 GHz) 16.0 GB (15.7 GB usable) 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor Is this being reported and is there a fix?

"war ravaged Portland" mkay.

Well I got killed. Lost my pinchwhacker. I can see where it is it inside a stone but cant pick it up. Very frustrating. It let me pick up my backpack but not the weapon. Hopefully the final release will fix this bug. Still, it's a good game so thanks for that.

Today's gift is Master of Magic Discount for all games and DLCs on store. It will go for 72 hours.

there are fantasy novel about character seem insane to bystander because they can see into multiple parallel dimension those character sound more sane than the mascot president of usa

The way he goes on and on about this stuff, I think he really believes what he is saying. Every other person would be checked into a mental hospital already.

Eh, if you ignore every bit of negative information for Ukraine- and there's been a lot; those horribly lop sided exchanges of bodies, averaging around 50:1 against Ukraine, and the continuing press ganging including people who patently aren't suitable or should be excluded being probably the most obvious- then yes, it's all positive for them. If you ignore every bit of positive information for Russia then it's all negative for them. You got so much of that sort of garbage propaganda in Afghanistan where the Taleban constantly failed in their aims while everything right for them/ wrong for the coalition got swept under the carpet; right up to the point the Taleban won. And there are probably still people who think the Taleban actually lost because it took them too long? actually it was all Trump's/ Biden's fault so they lost? whatever? It's attritional, much like the western front in ww1 it'll be static with little movement and high losses on both sides, precisely until it isn't. That blog approach is like taking Zelensky's 'aim' of 1991 borders and saying that he failed spectacularly because he lost more ground.

Heading for the Autobahn?

I had a suspicion they were... Space Colony is an interesting premise though becomes too chaotic and annoying with 8 or more crewmen (mostly the same 3 voice lines over and over and over, especially Billy Bob) D4 started so played that to satisfy the urge to kill after each work day.

Found this and am seeking management support.

I finished the main plot in Hogwarts Legacy. Overall I think it is a good game. A bit too Elder Scrolls like perhaps and a bit too collection focused. I think every bit of content overstays its welcome just a tad. The good thing is, for the bonuses you don't need to do everything. Just over half the Merlin Trials unlock max inventory. You can ignore the other forty something trials. The game doesn't force you to do every repetitive thing. The writing works. The plot works. The endless hordes of enemies do not work for a game that is focused on such a small area. The hundreds of poachers you kill mean you basically depopulated the wider area around Hogwarts and Hogsmead. Some comments the characters make are very on point. When your character wonders why nobody has looted the chests in the dungeon, even though you known it has been explored before. When you wonder why your professor has very specific ingredients for a potion on hand. Whoever wrote the story has felt those plot quibbles themselves and isn't above some self irony when they find themselves in that situation. It's the exact type of little thing that wins me over. The combat is fun. It is far more involved than a lot of action rpgs. The different spell combos and the way different spells may uniquely interact with different enemies are great. I still need to figure out how to hit a troll with their club. I don't like all the voice actors. I understand criticism that it is less a game about going to wizarding school and more a run around kill stuff game. I don't know how a school simulator would have been fun though.

Is funny how the Gadsden flag crowd doesn't care about this.

You're good lol, we all have blonde moments ha.

Ruh-roh Ferdinand Trump is planning to send troops to peaceful Portand in order to deal with so-called "domestic terrorists". I've visited Portland several times and it is hardly a bastion of crime or terrorism; it's just a nice place to live. Trump says he’ll send troops to Portland, Oregon, in latest deployment to US cities Maybe he's hoping the Proud Boys stir up some activist behavior? How Portland Stopped the Proud Boys

The very unfortunate thing is, these are absolute empty words, for which the Kotaku is pretty well known. It would be more believable, that this is not just a clickbait virtue-signalling, if they would voice the same stance, whenever a chinese company acquires/put stakes into a western developer or distributor, which pretty much never ever happens. Seems like Uyghur lives do not matter as much to them when the venture capital flows

Black Geyser: Couriers of Darkness? Promise Mascot Agency

Finished Hollow Knight and strongly disliked it. Thus, I can safely skip Silksong. Currently playing Promise Mascot Agency. The game is incredibly enjoyable in both story and gameplay and feels like Saints Row without combat (the car can climb like a Tamriel horse and glide) and with every gang member having their own sub-plot. The main character is not customisable, but having an ace vegan who can and does beat the **** out of everything on his way while talking about the joys of the chosen family is quite welcome. Also this:

From the article, Let us work towards affordable renewable energy and the fossil-fuel dictatorships having no power over us, wherever they may be located.

Will the games still be woke if they put all the ugly women in burqa?

Nope, it just means that Disney are lazy. They think they need to add one very scary scene into almost every movie because it is their shortcut for emotional responses. Just as they so often kill off a family member to make the audience bond with the protagonist - they use shortcuts. The Lion King is not so complex a story that a five year old can't understand it. But a lot of five year olds get scared at that one scene.

https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/ukrainealert/putins-failed-summer-offensive-shatters-the-myth-of-inevitable-russian-victory/ This war doesnt have the same interest it use to but here is an interesting link how the Russian summer offensive has failed The main takeaway is the last few months we have heard lots of Russian commentary and propaganda that " complete Russian victory was any day now\inevitable " Its not evitable and many outcomes are possible
