Man, she's your childhood friend. Bunch of sociopaths here.

Probably only makes sense to old farts now.

Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge are tourist trap towns with the weirdness factor turned up to 11 and breathtakingly beautiful mountains serving as the backdrop. There is no shortage of sights in both towns which will make you say "what the $@*%!?" Pigeon Forge is also the home of Dollywood, so if you like country singers with humongous mammaries, they got your hook up.

the number of indigenous cultures wiped out by the US government is considerable. insistence on lumping all "indians" together is only the most glaring flaw we see from oro on this subject. other than the more overt examples o' the mass murders o' native populations by gun and sword, there has been a slow and inexorable destruction o' many o' the remaining native populations. in nature, extinction level events do not necessarily occur overnight. current genocide is executed with less universal malicious intent than were exhibited by Presidents such as jackson and grant, but rather a callous indifference and/or genuine ignorance o' a process set in motion in decades past. is little evidence o' a will to stop the inevitable. as for conditions, we have noted how pine ridge, as an example, is lagging behind gaza in every quality o' life measure save for literacy and that is only 'cause the lakota believe both men and women deserve access to education. pine ridge is hardly the most terrible example but it is the one we happen to be most familiar. gotta keep in mind who is spouting the nonsense. uh, ok. a holocaust skeptic to boot. warning: you have all seen the footage, but it is nevertheless disturbing. "Because we have Indians still." *snort* point to 2020 world population o' those who identify jewish as an argument for rejecting a claim accusation o' german genocidal efforts is asinine. is no less ridiculous to point to living examples o' "indians" (whatever that term is meaning to oro) and suggest the living and breathing tangibility o' such persons is a meaningful rebuttal o' US genocide efforts. laughable and should requires no response. am thinking we all have oro's number at this point. ps: "One thing that became clear when researching this topic..." *insert eye-roll emoji here*

Despite no hints about that on developer's homepage, Vaporum: Lockdown ha been released today on GOG!!! https://www.gog.com/news/release_vaporum_lockdown Prequel to exquisite grid-based steampunk dungeon crawler made in Slovakia. Now go and help grow my country's GDP with the purchase

Playing wasteland 3 and loving it. The load times are a bit long but so far nothing that annoys me. It’s scratching that fallout/shadow runs itch something fierce

Yes I can vouch for this, I was his punching bag.

Yes this method worked for me and I have maxed it out. Yes it's a bit of a grind but using other methods before finishing them off with a punch works. It counts when you kill them with the fists. I've killed most ants weakening them with spike traps and finishing them up with a Mike Tyson knock out.

Surprised a TIE Interceptor could survive re-entry. Wonder if EA charges you per missile.

Yes please. Should not have to look online to find out what they do. Buff lungs vs cardio fan vs natural explorer.... kudos to anyone who just knew what the different effects were just by reading the vague wording. Ant-nihilator supposedly gives attack AND defense buff at max rank against ants. How does the description make this obvious ? The stories behind mutations is nice. Just add a line stating exactly what each does and by how much. I don't even know if mutation buffs stack with armor buffs like Aphid shoes, the feather hat or the leaf eyepatch.

Sorry, but i'd prefer to know for sure, rather than make assumptions. I've never been a big fan of guessing games. oh, and @tecknotot, You forgot to add Uncrackable(and various other set bonuses) to your list.

I'm not going to post the bill of lading, but lets just say it was a lot of books, a lot of dvd movies, a lot of Games Workshop stuff (when I say lot, I mean LOT, like several thousand metal miniatures, including long out of print stuff from the beginning of the company), wall units, book shelves, living room furniture, tumble dryer, lots of tools and power tools, clothes, my grand old plasma tv and dvd and a blu-ray player, kitchen stuff.... just so many things. As for the personal stuff, lots of things that only makes sense to me, like a teddy bear that I've had since I was 2 years old (with clothes knitted by now dead family members which is why it's important to, never mind the silly bear), drawings and later letters made by what was then little nephews and nieces for their uncle etc. As said, entirely only of personal value.

You should quit drinking before you reveal your power level and start going on holocaust revisionism or the protocols. Americans are afraid of everything.

My parents came to visit and I drove them west to the mountains. We stopped in Asheville and had a super delicious brunch at a French bistro that was shockingly inexpensive for how nice an establishment it was and how good the food was. We then drove through the Smokies into Tennessee and visited Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. I love seeing the looks on people's faces that are seeing Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge for the first time.

Hey everyone! If you see this, then welcome to the new and improved Obsidian forums! We hope you all enjoy the new style and features that were added to this update. Should you happen to run into any issues, please let us know on this thread so we can get to fixing them. Thank you for your patience during the downtime and continue being incredible to each other!

Other people have mentioned the fact that you can’t swim with planks or stems and that there is a possibility for water strider skis, personally I think it would be great if you could craft a raft with grass plank or stems and some crude rope, maybe you use acorns and sprigs to make paddles. This would allow players to move larger amounts of items than just what they can carry. I definitely don’t want to be carrying planks 7 at a time all the way across the pond just to build a house when I could build a little raft and carry like 24 of them at once. Anyone else have any ideas about this?

I wrote a post the other day about Mutation descriptions but this is another thing. There is no where in the game that describes SPECIFICALLY what the buff does or is when you wear an entire armor set. For example, what is UNCRACKABLE???? More defense? Im invincible for a set time?

what would be even more useful is if the game told you what the set bonus of an armor set is without requiring you to be wearing the full set first.

Thanks, Amentep. I look forward to hearing from you @WonerMand

Im just saying it needs to be toned down and sound more like a spiderling not a wolf spider.

Outta 29000 native Americans that fought in the civil war, less than a thousand fought for the North because of the trail of tears and also because the North were racist against them and turned a lot away, hence also why certain tribes switched sides. The problem of hyping up the south slave is that the federal govt right before the civil war showed that only 3-5% of the whole country owned slaves. You are right that it was the “1%” as we call today that owned them while most did not bc of affordability hence big families for the MOST of the plantation work. BUT the North did the same only with a new wrapper and new game, because the factories that were owned hired people for long hours and paid low low wages to barely survive. The South did the treatment with minorities while the North was woke and instead placed all colors into a slave wage state. Why I say it was economical is that people were more outraged and rightly scared of the difference in class levels between the working man and the rich than about slaves because most people didn’t own them.

256mb i think it is, but they upped that in a previous patch to 1gb if my memory is working. you have to uninstall/reinstall the game for that save file allocation update.

Since you can post, can you send a PM to @Fionavar?

I seem to be able to pickup multiple copies of the same personal logs and other tapes each session. It's starting to fill up the limited number of spaces for new logs to be picked up. I'm worried that if I pickup any more it's going to stuff up my game and I won't be able to pickup new ones in the future.

I got that but its vague. What does Enriched blood courses through you mean??? I have invincibility or more health? Look at Moist and Plump & Juicy, same thing practically. All of the descriptions are vague.

There were random encounters with faction vendors that could give you special items based on reputation ☺ So not completely useless

Better than any of the Star Wars movies released in the past 20 years.

I felt like there could be more 'out of combat' content in WL3. I know its not supposed to be Fallout but i think they could do a bit more quests. Also reputation with factions was.... useless? I feel like it all depended on one or two quests you done with sad group so what was the point of reputation if there is no way to change it?

I believe this is a known issue on their Trello board.

...so America sucks at genocide? Because we have Indians still. Look, no one is denying the historical events, we are just asking to look at the context and stop holding one group on a pedestal when they clearly should be there. I get that history is marred by the politics of the times, but we should really strive to understand historical events without biases. The Indians were horrible, ruled the east of the current US and did terrible things to settlers and so the settlers did horrible things back. Honestly, with the historical context reservations aren't that horrible of a solution compared to actual genocide. They survived and they're still fighting for some rights, which hopefully they get. My solution is to look to a future where the full historical events are explained and it serves to bring us together, not to bash one group over stuff their great great great grandfathers/mothers did. Also, why is it that only white Americans are held accountable for their ancestors actions? All races/nationalities have been horrible to each other at some point in history, but why is it that white countries are the ones that should feel guilty? BTW, if you don't know about subversion and the role the USSR had in shaping American's 60s counterculture I suggest you google Yuri Bezmenov. It's a good starting point, hopefully you will work you way up to declassified KGB documents that show that the Soviets financed; through the American Communist party, several films to subvert public opinion and make them embrace communism. But I know what you're thinking, that's all conspiracy huey.... I mean its not like there's bunch of crazed leftist that have no real clue burning their societies down. Why I must be wrong, cause obviously if it sounds crazy it must be false. This message has been brought to yo by the same government that trained pigeons to be the first smart bombs.

I hate you @McSquirl Nugget. Buff Lungs - Increased energy capacity? Grass Master - Faster grass cutting Rock Cracker - Better damage with hammer to enemies or rocks? Ant-nihilator - Killing ants is easier Lil Fist - More damage with fists? Coup de Grass - More luck with critical hits??? Juicy - Smoothie drinks are better?? Natural Explorer - Run faster? Cardio Fan - Breathe better underwater??? Reliable Friend - Revive friends faster? Sharpshooter - This last sentence is direct!! Meat Shield - better defense? Fresh Defense - Defense against anything gas or fire/acid???

stephen hawking (rip) would be ecstatic if such were true. is hard to imagine such a small natural forming black hole. neutron stars is what happens when a star with a solar mass up to 'bout 2.5x our sun dies. too small to be a black hole. smallest observed black hole to date is a bit more than 3.5 solar masses (am embarrassed to admit we forget the exact number.) even so, a star somewhere 'tween 2.5 and 2.6 solar masses is the minimum for black hole and the max for a neutron star. we mention hawking 'cause he hypothesised mini black holes. only natural occurring such would need be some o' the oldest objects in the universe 'cause could only occur synthetic or in conjunction with primordial conditions o' the early universe. as such, "alien transportation grid" makes more sense than does natural occurrence. ... just to be clear, am not suggesting alien transportation grid is the likely explanation. HA! Good Fun!

Hi all. I too have tried all those methods of getting eggs to spawn. I have yet to go on a full on Ant hunt across the map but I’m guessing it’s what many of you have said. They are glitched out somewhere and need to be killed. My save is from one of the earliest patches and I can’t start over unless it’s for a specific update. My base is to huge and to have to rebuild it would be tragic. hopefully they can work out a way to save people’s working saves through patches but I’ll go on that ant hunt soon and see if that makes a difference.

Now I imagine something like this, when you put it that way...

For a more earnest defense of Minsc, I think he's a really well-executed comic relief myself. I think he's a great Quixotic inversion of the heroic fantasy adventurer, is filled with great lines and puns, and is superbly performed by Jim Cummings. He's not a character to be taken seriously, he's literally there to poke fun at the dogooders by offering a counterpoint that seems to exacerbate all of the boistering, righteousness and epic ambition to absurd and risible heights. If you don't vibe with his style of comedy, that's one thing, but I for one think there's plenty of wit at play with his lines and place in the games, and he fits that Homer Simpsonesque "smart dumb comedy" category rather well. As a partymember on the purest technical/mechanical front, I can agree, he's not great. He's certainly viable, he's fine, but I don't even feel he was the stronger of the two ranger choices in Baldur's Gate 2 to begin with, if you even want to go with either. But then again, in a game like BG2, you don't need your companions to be min-maxed to hell to beat it even at the highest difficulty. And on top of this, I think that is beside what makes him or any character good. As a companion I value what he's able to add as a character, in terms of story, interactions, how he contributes to the overall experience, etc. In this sense I think he outdoes a lot of the brooding and poe-faced male fighters of Baldur's Gate 2, even without a quest of his own (ignoring the one he had in the first Baldur's Gate of course) - and as for Aeria and Nalia, I'd gladly ignore them in favour of Minsc if I found it necessary as well.

Don't feed him. Especially past midnight.

Seals, hedgehogs, dogs, communists, it's hard to keep track after a while.

Man, if I ever get enough machine guns to keep the unwashed, uncivilized hordes of natives away. I could see myself in S.Africa...No offense to Bruce, he can visit....provided that he bathes.

"Have you heard about our Lord and Saviour, Offensive Parry?"

I started watching Chernobyl. I'm at episode 2 now and man, it's like a horror movie.

I liked him when I played the game for the first time years ago, but found his shtick quite tiresome on the recent playthrough. And even then it's not exactly Minsc who's annoying, it's that disgusting little squeaky pest of his. Wish the game had some cat I could save from a tree and feed it that furry annoyance, so at least in death it would be of some use.

If anyone is still playing FO4 I found a GREAT radio mod. It's a Boston version of Galaxy News Radio. The DJ is fully voiced and does news and banter. Whoever he is he sounds a like Morgan Freeman. The best part is the music. They play all 1930's & '40's blues. Great stuff! Galaxy News Radio - Boston Mass.

Have also an idea. What about little Vehicles like a sort of boat or something on land ? ^^

Got a chuckle out of this

Hello, not sure if this has already been talked about but I had an idea when it comes to building. I was getting my base ready for the upcoming update and wanted to replace my normal grass walls with sturdy walls. The process of replacing each wall with the risk of destroying a build and loosing materials is getting old. I was just thinking that a feature could be added or looked into where for example if you have a regular grass wall, instead of destroying the wall completely, you could just add a wood stem to it making it a sturdy wall, saving a lot of time. Obviously this wouldn't work with some things but I thought it would make peoples lives a lot easier. Again, not sure if its been talked about but just and idea.

Those minor league teams know what they are though. You don't really see any of them on TV. They tend to market themselves as a local product. It's a good bang for your buck versus the big leagues. Colleges rely on alumni and the local community as well. There is a whole school pride element, and college football thrives in areas where there is not a pro competitor. XFL doesn't seems to know what it is. They are in markets that already have pro teams. They are playing in stadiums that they can't fill and they want national TV viewers. I just don't see it. But then again, The Rock turns everything he touches into gold (Rampage made $428 million?!?) so who knows?
