I have just reach level 8 in Pillars of Eternity with my whole group. I have just arrived at 7th floor of The Endless Paths, and then, I still need to finish Heritage Hill district of Defiance Bay. After that, I will move finally to the first part of the White March Expansion. Sometimes I completely **** up some pulls down under, and in the 6th floor my tank finished one of these fights with last 3HPs before permanent death 😛 I have to be more cautious

So it seems that Stalker 2 is a real thing: I just hope this isn't another Rune 2. Also, we should totally have a thread for all things Stalker.

This one too!

I can't remember if this has been posted here or not. Just in case...

I do admit my MIN pick is wishful thinking.

Naw, just roll with it

The story of my life in a meme

To all of those who voted for us in The Game Awards, you are all fantastic and we are so grateful for your support. The reception to The Outer Worlds has been unbelievable to see, and even just being nominated means a lot. However, the journey isn't over yet as we are excited to announce that we will be expanding the story through DLC next year! Details will be made available at a later date. Now we would like to allow our game directors, Tim Cain and Leonard Boyarsky, to share a message with you all: We just wanted to personally thank our team for doing a wonderful job and our fans for their tremendous support. And Tim would like to say what an honor it was to work with me. – Leonard Whatever, Leonard. Now that we’ve finished, I expect that certain photographs will be destroyed, as per our agreement. – Tim

* * * Spiritual Successor is available at the link in my signature: https://spiritualsuccessor.net/ * * * TABLE OF CONTENTS OF SPIRITUAL SUCCESSOR POSTINGS: Spiritual Successor - RELEASED! Development Update #1 - Code Refactoring How-To #1 - Simple Edit & Export Development Update #2 - Using RxJS Subjects Follow Spiritual Successor on Twitter for announcements Original Post from 27th April 2018: For some time now, I've been working on a modding tool that reads Deadfire's .gamedatabundle files and allows for their easy editing, and exporting of changes. The editor's initial version is not far from being released, and I expect it will be out shortly (days, weeks) after Deadfire ships. The editor's basic workflow is: 1. Load a gamedatabundle file into the editor. If you don't load one yourself, the contents of the vanilla gamedatabundle file will be used for modding. 2. Select a category which you want to make changes to - for example progression tables. Make your changes to the progression table you chose and hit Save. A copy of the object you changed is recorded. 2.1 From a progression table you have access to a list of abilities for the object you chose to edit. Selecting an ability from the list will load the ability's object for editing, without need for you to switch screens or do anything manually. From the ability you may proceed to edit the attack associated with that ability, and from that, proceed to edit the status effects applied by that attack. All this is happening through the editor's UI. 3. Go to the tab for exporting changed data. It contains a list of objects which have been changed across all gamedatabundle objects. Review the json code and export it for inclusion in your modded .gamedatabundle file. The main advantage of the editor is that it fetches game data objects referenced from different gamedatabundle files. So when you are editing a weapon for example, you don't have to go through 3 files (items > attacks > status effects) in order to change the duration of some effect. This saves you time and effort because you don't have to switch between different files, and search manually with ctrl+f in each one. Secondly, the editor reduces the chance for technical errors and typos, by using input validation on the fields which you are allowed to change. The editor won't allow you to save a field with an invalid value which would break the game, and there is no chance of invalidating the whole gamedatabundle file because you accidentally deleted a comma somewhere. Thirdly, the editor filters out from view any system fields and/or objects, which are not suitable for modding, letting you concentrate on the stuff that's of interest to a modder. Stuff you can potentially mod, and which the editor will gradually begin supporting: rebalance abilities, add and remove abilities, rebalance item stats, damage, armor rating, defense bonuses, health points, injuries, skills, and more. The editor is web based, but there is no server-side logic or functionality which needs a webserver. Everything you do happens on your own machine, in your browser's memory. No data about your mod or usage of the editor is being recorded on the server. In fact once you open the editor, you can safely switch off your internet connection. Changes are being saved in the web browser's memory, which carries the drawback that on refresh of the browser tab, you will lose all changes which you haven't exported. Therefore you should not refresh or close the browser tab until you've exported your changes from the editor. I haven't been in contact with Obsidian about making the editor, and I haven't been given special support or documentation. I never told anyone in part because I wanted to work on this simply as a pet project. Of course, I will welcome any help and support, mainly with documentation, which would allow me to keep improving the editor and enriching its functionality. I hope such a tool will make modding more accessible, will liven up Deadfire's modding community, and will encourage Obsidian to increase moddability for Deadfire and for future games.

He started a new topic. Again.

It says the content is no longer available What was it?

Why? You've waited ten years. You can wait one more, which comes with the added bonuses of patches and a mature modding community.

Dear god, STALKER 2 on epic store would be my worst nightmare.

I'm not too bothered by the tinnitus itself - only once in a while does it get extreme enough to really get to me (like, maybe 2-3 times a year, which really isn't bad at all - it used to be worse and more frequent when I was a kid/teen, but slowly got better over time). The misophonia, on the other hand, is triggered by a lot of different things, but that's why I always keep sound dampening earplugs near or on me, .

Ooops! I was at the garbage and decided to help Bes fight the bandits. So we kill all the bandits and he calls me over. But just as we are having a conversation, one of the bandits comes out of hiding and shoots Bes dead. Turns out one of them was still alive. Bes died. I have his 'special' AK-47 now. See? This is why I love this game. Should I try and keep him alive? Can't remember if there were further encounters with him or not.

Last week for me, ctd'd People hate the Complete mod? O.o There was a great mod on the horizon from russia, you could add some weaponmods in on the fly basically, like different magazines, and he had attachable reflex sights and such. Then he got drafted and I never heard more about it. ._.

You have my sympathies, I do hope atleast that the sounds that trigger it are rare?

I finished Rise of the Torture Porn Raider. It's a significantly better game than the 2013 game. There's still far too much murdering for my taste, but it's not as ludicrous as the previous game. Also, I became so OP eventually that combat was trivial. This game had a lot more actual tomb raiding and they were designed better too. Still not as challenging as I would have liked, but a step up from the insultingly easy puzzles of the 2013 game. I don't usually care about 100%-ing a game, but it will take a while to finish downloading Shadow of the Torture Porn Raider on truck stop wifi and I'm already at 86% so I might give it a go.

@Azdeus My father had tinnitus going back to a head injury in his early 20s, as well as severe misophonia of many things, including the tinnitus. Both were always much worse when he drank. I've had tinnitus and misophonia since I was a kid as well, but 'unfortunately' won't ever discover if it has the same effect on me.

Eh, pretty strong rumour is that nVidia's 7nm is not announced due to them committing to Samsung 7nm instead of TSMC and Samsung's 7nm process being about as broken as Intel's 10nm- so nVidia cannot get top tier chips off it, TSMC's 7nm is by all accounts fully booked until their next plant comes online and Apple finishes up their orders, so even if nVidia wanted to do a 7nm release they cannot. And given Jensen's abysmal interpersonal skills who knows if he's burnt the bridges to TSMC along with the bridges to Intel, MS and Sony. Not that it really matters so far as nVidia is concerned, at the moment. AMD actually has no problem at all with raw performance, Vega was so popular for mining because it had great raw number crunching power. RDNA is also equal to Turing there. Their problem is turning their theoretical performance into practical performance and competing with stuff like nVidia's texture compression (albeit that ensures I'll never buy nVidia, while faster I find their colours to be badly washed out). AMD's real advantage will come when/ if they can start producing 'proper' APUs as that will eat nVidia's low/ mid end desktop and laptop lunch and when they've got Infinity Fabric/ Multi Chip Module video cards. On the V64 vs 5700xt comparison, remember the 5700xt only has 44 CUs vs a V64's, uh, 64. There's a pretty significant practical performance increase on a like to like basis, around 40%, it's just hidden by not having an RDNA card with 64CUs to do a direct comparison. End of the day matching nVidia in performance is irrelevant anyway, practically. Even when they've beaten nVidia in basically everything- price, performance, efficiency- nVidia has more sales; the 570 brutally murdered the 1050/Ti price performance wise yet the nVidia card sold better. [I'd put money on the actual top AMD card not being the rumoured 2080Ti competitor Navi21/ 80CU with that being the tier 2 card]

I've found that Origin runs better than Steam and Epic. But I probably only launch a few times a year, so take that for what it is worth. But still, pretty unobtrusive comparatively.

I've never had any significant technical problems with Origins software (or uPlay for that matter). Very occasional crash, but I'm talking once or twice over multiple years. Only ever used it as a launcher though so I have no comment on its other aspects, but then Fallen Order is also single player so Origin would be just a launcher for it The only 'moral' reason not to was for people who believed poor multi billionaire monopolist Gabe Newell was being bullied, bullied, by nasty EA refusing to give him 30% of their PC revenue. Even that is out of date now.

for what it's worth, about +2 Con Ngati's Blessing: I always get it at 35° 35' S 45° 6' E refusing to kill the marine creature

Be prepared for Clear Sky though, mother of gods were there alot of annoying bugs in that game. That faction war system was utterly borked. I suspect you'll have to do some heavy modding to get it to work properly.

CoP is the best in the series, Clear Sky is meh, and SoC is great with the right mods. CoP has some great mods to but vanilla holds up best out of the bunch. Happy stalking, comrade :salute:

I miss the days when Nigerian princes offered me large sums of money.

Guys, methinks you are trying to converse with an adbot. There is similar thread started by never-seen-again user with the same naming scheme and there was at least one since deleted doppelganger of that post. Thought it kinda odd that Xbox would need such sneaky tactics, but maybe it really isn't, seeing how too much exposure to them filthy things make people build in-brain adblocks.

Seems like a pretty good deal. Although exercise is a better option for managing your tension.

I love the Streets of Rage 1 and 2 soundtracks.

No, thank you Obsidian for your continued support of The Outer Worlds, and congratulations on your achievements with it so far. I'm sure we are all really looking forward to the upcoming DLC and are excited for any news you share about it.

I can conceivably understand the "writing" part, although I do not agree, but how do you justify the "programming" part? Can you please name three companies and three titles that are superior to PoE and Deadfire in writing. I would be very interested in playing them.

Then I would wait until next spring or summer before upgrading your gpu when the next batch of cards come out, as they should be able to handle 1440p just fine. I have a 144 1440p monitor stored in my garage I may just pull it then when they release.

Hah, called it months ago!

Watched Twitcher tv show. Had low expectations which it surpassed. Super Twitcher was solid. Yen, and a few others were mostly good as well. It is clear to me that the show runners/writers are pure garbage. Everything wrong with the show is because of their sexism, racism, and pure moronicy. The special effects especially the monsters/make ups are garbage. The elves, and dryads are laughable. The dwarves are basically short humans not dwarves in any meaningful way. This show gets me because I'm a sucker for fantasy adventure even if it is rather sucky, I'm a fan of Super Twitcher, and Yen **** are a win. P.S. Why the love for Jaskier? He's got to be the worst sidekick character ever. Give me Joxer any day. LMAO

All we ever do in this forum is the same stuff over and over. 😛
