  3. Linux (KDE) – latest beta freezes with NullReferenceException in UI Game version: Pillars of Eternity – latest beta build System: Fedora Linux KDE Plasma Session: Wayland Proton: GE 10-12 Issue: Game freezes / hangs shortly after launch or during combat. Stable version does not have this issue. Older beta builds worked. Log excerpt: NullReferenceException at UIAbilityBarButton.UpdateTacticalIcon () at UIAbilityBarButton.Update () NullReferenceException at UnityEngine.Material.get_shader at UIDrawCall.UpdateMaterials () at UIDrawCall.OnWillRenderObject () I hope this helps.
  4. Again, no one is taking Zelensky numbers seriously. I'm taking visual confirmed numbers from Andrew Perpetua and Oryx seriously. And data from Russians like Strelkov, Vladimir Chirkin, Murz, Prigozhin, and Maxim Kalashnikov seriously, alongside analysts like Anders Puck. According to Oryx : Category Russian Losses (Confirmed) Ukrainian Losses (Confirmed) Ratio (RU:UA) Tanks ~3,000+ 1,386 ~2-3:1 IFVs ~5,000+ 1,532 ~3-4:1 APCs/MRAPs ~4,000+ 509+ ~4-8:1 Total Armor ~12,000-15,000+ ~5,500 ~3:1 And disagree about Obituaries. People that just get MIA or are not registered as dead by its officers wouldn't end in obituaries. To have a notion on how great Anders Puck is, look what he posted at January 2022. He not only predicted the invasion but also predicted maximalist objectives and that the war wouldn't go as RU predicted. Later, on the video "Russia's new forever war in Ukraine, 11MAR2022" he predicted a very long war. Russia has multiple times more manpower. Also has help from North Koreans, Cubans and many other allies. If Ukraine was not inflicting much more casualties, Russia would already have defeated Ukrainian army.

  7. Not sure if anyone will see this but I’ll try anyway. I think these weapons would be a cool addition to the game: Flail - I think this could be very interesting because it could be blunt damage or if it has spikes, piercing damage. Would also be cool if it could extend and retract, giving you another range friendly melee weapon. Element infused power gauntlet - this idea can be expanded on but it would be a melee ranged elemental weapon. It’s a charged based small explosion weapon, pure sour damage or spicy damage or whatever element it is. Kind of like a shotgun. The staffs are cool but only ranged focused. Scythe change - I had an idea for the scythe that maybe you can’t block with it but in return, you get a different attack that could sap the life of bugs you kill. Or maybe an over shield or extra damage for a brief time. Launcher - this one is just more a fun thought but it would be like the fatman from Fallout and you would load it with the hand bombs you craft and you could add different elements and effects.
  8. this has gone to a bizarre place. you cannot be serious. if the only option we had presented were ignoring you, your response o'," One might wonder why you bothered saying it as an option then, if you were so adamant about not doing it," would remain ridiculous seeing as how we fully answered that question BEFORE you asked it. but the fact you put the word "option" into the query would not have been perplexing to us in light o' the fact we supplied only one option. our singular recommendation would have indeed been "an option." duh. if we suggested that purchasing a huge life insurance plan and then indulging murder by cop was an excellent retirement plan for your family, you coulda responded exact the same way with, "One might wonder why you bothered saying it as an option then, if you were so adamant about not doing it," and if Gromnir had fixated on the word option, railing about how we had not presented an "or" alternative, we would look positive insane with that bit o' nonsensical deflection... and yet here we are, with zor playing the role o' the most obtuse person ever. you got a long history o' blixing, so... edit: zor's biggest reveal from the current bumbling response chain weren't his lazy reliance on an internet search population or his mendacity regarding ledes and summaries... which were just plain silly. nope, we let it slide at the time, 'cause we didn't want to go to a full on character evaluation, but since you is ok with it, "lol, the poor unfortunate journalists, it's their eternal good fortune that Gromnir is on the case to defend them from vile calumny on the Obsidian forums. Of course, works a bit less well when you've just thrown a Harvard Professor under the bus to avoid admitting you were wrong. And when you've accused Trump's medical staff of effectively lying about his health to prop up your speculation about it." you make clear that you honest don't see anything wrong with attributing bad intent to journalists, cops, soldiers, politicians or just about anybody else, regardless o' any evidence to support such claims. even when your claims is proved wrong, there is no remorse. am finding that sorta behaviour to be disquieting. academics is unlikely to mind if you quote them. observe how a professor predicted a likely currency collapse if drastic measures were not taken is not gonna enrage a typical academic, but am seeing how that might bother zor. converse, if we had claimed the professor had predicted a currency collapse if severe austerity measures were not taken, and the professor had actually opined that russia were never in any danger o' economic pain from sanctions coupled with the oil situation, then am thinking he would have cause for outrage. if we blixed him, calling the academic a liar when our own misrepresentation were revealed, then am thinking it would show a serious flaw in our character. and yeah, am suspicious o' the claims made by trump's doctors. seeing as how there has been questions about the truthfulness o' trump doctor claims since at least 2018, one wonders why zor is so credulous. regardless, doesn't look like we rushed this one either. am not perfect. no doubt am having proverbial jumped the gun more than once in spite o' our admonishments that doing so is wrong. am recalling that we accused rittenhouse (mention him as he is back in the news) o' taking a firearm across state lines when such was not the case. sure, we qualified that we hadn't been paying much attention to the trial, but we were wrong about the state line issue and we shoulda' self-educated more thorough before opening our gob on that point. our bad. we got all kinda character flaws; no argument. one reason we dislike trump so much is his constant lying. am not sure why in 2026 it is more important to have a viral take than to provide an honest and reflective response. lack o' fairness also triggers us more than it should. maybe we will work on such... maybe after we see zor ease up on the reflexive blixing? HA! Good Fun!

  10. Even if Zelensky were telling the truth- and he may well be, twenty if not an unreasonable number given that some bodies will be hard to identify and he used the plural exchanges so it would be over thousands of returnees- that would barely shift the ratio- eg to ~ 16:1 if we applied it to the last batch- which is not really significant. That's also why the recent exchange was interesting; it should include the casualties Ukraine claimed from Kupiansk, since they did advance there, and claimed hundreds of Russian dead, and should have been able to recover their bodies after advancing. Instead, it wasn't much different from previous times; about twice the number of Russians but in absolute terms only ~20 more. As previous, I personally tend towards the obituary approach being most accurate, at least in terms of the trends between the two.
  11. Just another request for some form of Katsaridaphobia mode, I know more than a few folks that really would like this!
  12. lolwut. Saying it was an option does not preclude there being other options- indeed, it more than implies that there are other possibilities offered, or it wouldn't be an option. That isn't exactly university english. I've said multiple times that your tactic would be to try and bore the life out of me, I always knew ignoring me was an empty threat. Maybe you need a reminder of what you said? So again, why say there's an option to ignore if you were never going to do so? Ok as, per usual your grammar is appalling and you left out the pronouns, but surely even you can recognise 'am' as the first person single form (ie referring to you, Gromnir) of to be and 'us' as first person plural (referring to you, Gromnir, and others). You got one thing right though.
  13. False. Russia send Russian bodies saying that are Ukrainain bodies ( https://www.ctvnews.ca/world/russia-ukraine-war/article/ukraine-received-at-least-20-bodies-of-russian-soldiers-in-recent-exchanges-zelenskyy-says/ ) besides, Ukraine constantly retreats, which makes retrieving bodies much harder. That said, you depics heavy casualties as something which only Ukraine claims. Russians like Strelkov, Vladimir Chirkin, Murz, Prigozhin, and Maxim Kalashnikov, ALL said that Russia is taking heavy loses. Murz in particular got "suicided" after exposing heavy loses. Strelkov, jailed. EU should be more clear about consequences of Russia victory. Not talk about morals.
  14. para la gente que completamos la primera batidora y al pasarnos la historia nos quedamos sin las incursiones. este es un error muy conocido. desoues de jugar muchas horas con la nueva actualización del jardín tóxico no he tenido ninguna incursión. no he completado la segunda batidora. me falta la batalla contra la mala en el invernadero. No se que hacer....

  18. The issue isn't really that Ukraine lies about casualties- Russia most certainly does as well- it's more that their claims tend to be accepted without much if any criticism even when they don't make any real sense. That is done in part for 'morale' reasons, for want of a better word, but it does lead to unrealistic expectations among the general population and, if their statements are taken at face value, among intelligence agencies etc who repeat them. Ironically, doesn't seem to have that much effect in Ukraine itself, where war enthusiasm has clearly dropped massively since 2022. Probably the best measure, at least in the sense that it's broadly speaking independent and any biases should be similar is the monitoring of formal obituaries and social media obituaries carried out by mediazona and ualosses. That comes out with a close to 1:1 ratio, albeit with a lot of the Ukrainian losses technically listed as 'missing' rather than dead; and it's obviously an underestimate of true numbers but should be a similar underestimate for both sides. Since it's current and fairly relevant, the latest body exchange yesterday was 1000 Ukrainian to 38 Russian. There are plenty of reasons to accept that the real casualty rate isn't 25:1 in Russia's favour of course, not least that the war would be over if it was, but also this is over a time period where Ukraine claimed to kill hundreds of Russians in Kupiansk, a city they'd recaptured so should have been able to claim most bodies from.
  19. Fixed various crashes and improved the stability of the game by 20%. The scanner to start the fight with the Mysterious Stranger should now spawn normally in all instances. The Archives quest should no longer disappear after a save/load. Fixed an issue where the Sour Seed being planted wasn't counted toward quest progression. Various quest flow issues that were caused by autosave have been resolved. Verify that your game is updated to recieve these fixes. Please feel free to submit a support request if these are still not resolved or if you run into any other issues. https://grounded2.obsidian.net/issue-tracker#contact Thanks!

  21. I experience the same issue since The Toxic Tangle update.
  22. Yep. They don't think what would happen if Ukraine capitulates. They implicitly assume: Demobilization is administratively smooth Economies can shrink without exploding Armed, radicalized populations will politely accept unemployment and humiliation Symbols, language, and memory politics are “cosmetic issues” This is ahistorical thinking. In Masada (73 AD), Jews chose mass suicide over disarmament. Zulus at Isandlwana (1879) at a much smaller number, without firearms, fought against the hegemonic power at that time (the British) when the British demanded disarmament. Those aren't easy demands. Would have extreme consequences. For eg, giving so many territory incurs plus the "demilitarization" requiring the destruction of teh Ukrainian defense industry and all ties with European investors would bankrupt Ukraine. Plus hundreds of thousands of now unemployed armed dudes that have no job due the Weimar style demilitarization, Russian and commie symbols being forced into Lviv, Ukraine would have to become a diehard police state while bankrupting itself and defaulting. Two things would happen if Ukraine capitulates. 1 - The largest refugee crisis of human history in two huge waves. After capitulation, a huge wave. After the consequences of capitulation comes, a much larger wave. Estonian former president speculated in 25 million refugees. 2 - Europe destabilized and a much worse war coming. Destabilization happens every time that Carthaginian peace terms are imposed into someone. From Carthage to Weimar Germany. Multiple economists from Keynes to Mises warned that Versailles in particular demilitarization and cultural impositions(war guilty clauses) which are much less severe than RU demands would destabilize Europe. Yet to appease some French hardlines, it was imposed upon Germany. Germany become radicalized and launched the most devastating war in human history as a result of less serious demilitarization and humiliation.

  25. Has there been any fix or workaround for this? I'm pretty sure I've had this issue since the beginning and just passed it off initially as "might not work yet", but I've been trying to play multiplayer over the last couple updates and it doesn't work at all. All I get is "You are not logged in to Xbox Network or network could not be reached" when I try to add friends, and just server error if I try to join and search for games.

  27. Think it's just a case of them not caring and being bored of the war not understanding what capitulation means. They forget it's not a war in Africa, or something

  29. Just wondering. Obviously, ranger, fighter and wizard is not on the discussion because they are already in the game. My opinion would be Cipher. I also asked ChatGPT and Grok to try to find which would be the most wanted DLC class :
  30. What bugs me in the "Ukraine must capitulate crowd" is that they don't understand that Russia wants absolute control over everything about Ukraine. Its language, laws, foreign policy, borders, military capabilities, military size, and even street names. IE—Russia wants to have the same control that an empire has towards its colonies without having to maintain an expensive occupation force. Even if Russia wins, such demands can only be enforced by full occupation; pretending otherwise is silly. It would be like if I wanted to live like Dan Bilzerian without spending huge sums of money. EVERY country inflate enemy deaths in the war. However, if you go by visually confirmed casualties, the ratio is 4:1 in favor of Ukraine. However, visual confirmation tends to downplay where RU has the greatest advantage, ie - artillery. So no one knows how are the casualty rates. That said, Russian lies are much worse than merely inflating numbers. Didn't they claimed to occupied Pokrovsk like 6 times?

  32. I'm having the same issue with the Crucible and the Tyrant of Decay. However it doesn't seem to matter how I kill the Tyrant, the game never seems to realize that the battle has stopped. What I have tried: - Sneakily using my Priests 'Dismissal' on the Tyrant before a battle starts. - Starting a battle then using my Priest's 'Dismissal' - Starting a battle and using no skills that dismiss opponents. Killed the Tyrant with offensive weapons and skills over about 4-5 turns. Are there any known ways of getting around this, since at this point I am thoroughly hard locked from progressing?
  33. Pretty much a bombshell dropped on GOG. Four Final Fantasy games have been released few minutes ago. III, IV, VIII and IX https://www.gog.com/en/promo/final_fantasy
  34. Anyone planning on watching the Melania movie? It officially releases tomorrow. I wont be watching it I feel sorry for her because its hard to imagine the movie doing well considering who she is married to and the current levels of anger towards Trump
  35. Only issue I had was the Light Mode setting and I have now set that back to Dark Mode So its all good so far
  36. Just finished my first playthrough, and had such a great time with it. The story pulled me in, the world design was varied and beautiful, and the combat vs speech options felt rewarding. Marisol and Valerie were my favourite companions. I really appreciated the way the ship and crew quarters could grow more personalised over time. Big fan! It would also be really, really cool to be able to sleep in the bed in the player's/captain's cabin cook up something in the galley like a "Homemade Meal" from crabmeat and/or apples etc , with the option for the crew to eat together, or save it for later (a small, temporary buff to health perhaps) have the pet also show up on the bridge or the main deck, randomly I appreciate there are probably reasons why the game is like it is, and not a million other ways. But personally I would have loved these features for furthering the immersion of the game.
  37. I'm aware it's highly likely that might be his position again, but I would still be curious to see his thought process, in the face of evidence in front of his eyes.
