A while ago I lose most of my crew after sinking a lot of ships, not knowing why. Turns out when they're downed in combat, even though Berath's challenge doesn't apply, they get injured like party members (not ship combat injuries), and they get cured when consuming food and drink everyday. Thank god they don't need I do a rest. Because of how weak most of them are, fighting multiple ships in a short time can get them a lot of injuries and potentially killed.

Just the original series....for now. EoE and Rebuilds are on the menu soon, but there are a few movies I want to see before I go back to the anti-universe.

I should check properly, but as far as I get, only attack damages benefit from it. SA damages actually come from a status, like DoT. Not stronger but less unique, that's the main concern. +30-40% weapon damages is significantly less than 30% raw lash. Current version is optimal want you wanna weapon gang against 1 hardy foe (and work also with instant and even pulsating spell) No. Same debuff don't stack. That also a reason not to tweak it. But it is also a reason why a tweak won't be gamebreaking, as it only does an existing debuff.

I just completed playing the SoD expansion for BG1ee for the very first time. It was weaksausce and rather lame, especially when in comparison with ToB as the equivalent expansion to BG2. The NPCs were all forgettable, and the multiple times Charname gets screwed over by people who are supposedly his friends/supporters got tiresome real quick. And the huge castle battle was a giant pain in the ass with no fun redeeming value. Beamdog truly sucks. I'm so very glad their Ps:T successor game got canned.

Whereas adding a mere three mods to my current BG2ee playthrough was too much of a chore and a pain for me.

Im having my normal break from playing one type of gaming genre and Im playing Sunless Skies Its great, similar to Sunless Seas and very brutal and unforgiving I love the how RNG design of encounters and how the map destinations are not static and you have to explore to find ports and you have to be strategic around the economy and your resources

It seems a disjointed mess that hastily ties up the previous seasons in a package that doesn't fit. The weight of the sacrifice feels empty and I honestly think ending at s3 would have been a better finale. Moreover, the rest of the season just feels bland, which is a shame because Jean and Gene are hilarious as villains and the show has done crazy fun stuff before. Just not a good time. Funnily enough, I just rewatched NGE. That ending works much better thematically and actually is well done in terms of composition. Certainly better than merging with a cgi blob for plot induced stupidity.

Company of Heroes is still looking and playing really good for a game released in 2006. I cannot believe it's been that long, I feel incredibly old.

Wait till I do my first Skyrim playthrough, I am planning on using hundreds of mods But with MO2 the troubleshooting and interaction between mods becomes much easier and all the mods I use have a real purpose and almost always fix vanilla experience problems or improve something like a more balanced economy or add extra lore friendly monsters or quests

have to do something personally important and the cost of failure are high there is no one but oneself to blame if this fail again another cold and shaking panic attack hope this end well edit sadly failed again maybe there are another chance in 6 month

I have completed Fallout NV and all its DLC after about 120 hours. It was an excellent experience and its gets a 75/100 on the globally followed " BruceVC game rating system " I played a heavily modded game and I will include my mod list from MO2 at the end. I am not going to repeat what I mentioned in previous posts in this thread except for how stable the game became after I did the following https://performance.moddinglinked.com/falloutnv.html#NVTF " Double-click on NVTF in Mod Organizer, then open NVTF.ini in the INI Files tab, and set: bModifyDirectXBehavior = 1" I only had 5-7 crashes after this making this change in about 65 hours and I use to get 3-4 CTD in random areas every time I played As far as narrative choices were concerned I decided to finally support an independent Vegas and not align with the NCR or the Legion and I killed House I wanted to align with the NCR because I liked what they believed about law and order but they wanted me to kill the Brotherhood of Steel so I moved away from them but I avoided killing there soldiers as much as possible and I didnt wipe them out at Hoover dam at the end. I persuaded them to leave without a massacre by my upgraded Securitrons Finally outside of the mods below I used a mod that changed the required amount of XP you need for each level and you can set different levels, I used 1.5x so if you need 7200 XP for level 10 you now need 9000 XP for level 10. And this slowed the level advancement down and made the game more realistic and motivated me to explore more and do side quests which I enjoy https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/35178 Here are the mods I installed FalloutNV.esm DeadMoney.esm HonestHearts.esm OldWorldBlues.esm LonesomeRoad.esm GunRunnersArsenal.esm ClassicPack.esm MercenaryPack.esm TribalPack.esm CaravanPack.esm YUP - Base Game + All DLC.esm NavmeshOverhaul.esm fixy crap ue.esp Landscape Texture Improvements.esm Vanilla Enhancements.esm Landscape Texture Improvements - YUP Patch.esm Bad Touch.esm Uncut Wasteland.esm Functional Post Game Ending.esm FCOMaster.esm AWorldOfPain(Preview).esm TLD_Travelers.esm Momod.esm SaxxonsQuestPack.esm Mojave Wildlife (FO3-Style).esp Better Brotherhood.esm MBFNPCs.esp NVWillow.esp VanessaFollowerNV.esm Mojave Raiders.esm Leveled DLC Delay.esm Functional Post Game Ending - YUP Patch.esm More Perks.esm SomeguySeries.esm Weapons.of.the.New.Millenia.esm wsex.esm Functional Post Game Ending - Uncut Wasteland Patch (VNV).esp YUP - NPC Fixes (Base Game + All DLC).esp NVMIM.esp Unofficial Patch NVSE Plus.esp Vurt's WFO.esp Uncut Wasteland.esp ExRB.esp The Mod Configuration Menu.esp JustAssortedMods.esp Enhanced Movement.esp ImmersiveRecoil.esp Follower Tweaks.esp Trap Tweaks.esp FCO - NPC Changes.esp JSawyer Ultimate.esp MAC.esp AWOP Interim Fixes.esp Momodlorefriendly.esp populatedcasino.esp EVE FNV - ALL DLC.esp DLC Enhancements.esp More Perks Update.esp wsexInnuendoNPCs.esp Weapons.of.the.New.Millenia.Store.esp Misc Content Restoration.esp FNV Realistic Wasteland Lighting - All DLC.esp MonsterModLorefriendlyDLC.esp NewVegasBounties.esp NewVegasBountiesII.esp TheInheritance.esp NewVegasBountiesIII.esp Classic Fallout Weapons Remastered v1.2.esp FNV NPCs Travel.esp T4-plugin.esp BrotherhoodReforged.esp Game_NV_MotorcycleTravelAdvRandom.esp Game_NV_MotorcycleTravel.esp Weapons.of.the.New.Millenia.Store.LITE.esp Cowboy Radio - Now with VA.esp Cowboy Radio - Songs Only.esp Radio Free Wasteland.esp zmod_add_misc_RadioGaga.esp Mojave Raiders.esp Bouncing Natural Breasts.esp Uncut Wasteland - YUP Patch.esp FCO - OHSB NPC Edits.esp EVEM - YUP Patch.esp Better Brotherhood - FPGE Patch.esp Better Brotherhood - YUP Patch.esp rockbiter_AnimationSounds.esp Misc Content Restoration - UW (VNV) Patch.esp LootMenu.esp Economy Overhaul.esp Vanilla UI Plus.esp Weapons.of.the.New.Millenia.Honest.Hearts.Grunt.Patch.esp Weapons.of.the.New.Millenia.Leveled.Lists.esp HairPatcher.esp Daedric Bitchs.esp DIM TYPE3clothesRETAIL.esp MojaveDelight.esp Sprint Mod.esp JSawyer Ultimate - EDEM Patch.esp JSawyer Ultimate - SMIM Patch.esp JSawyer Ultimate - EVEM Patch.esp The Weapon Mod Menu.esp Blanket_NV.esp FCO - Willow (Cazy).esp FCO - Willow.esp DriveableMotorCycle.esp Player Combat Priority.esp PipBoyLight.esp pipboyx3.esp Slower Level Rates - x1.5.esp JSawyer Ultimate - Mojave Raiders Patch.esp JIP Companions Command & Control.esp wsexInnuendoAnims.esp Strip Lights Region Fix.esp DNWeathers.esp 22-07 Merge 3.esp TheBetterAngels.esp

Gotten hold of a computer now, sorry for the late replies! Ooh, excellent idea! I've limited them like this: Progression Tables only: Won't show up in Progression Tables: RecipeData only: Conversations marked ConversationDisplayType: ShipDuel Gonna check this out 👍 😬 ops, fixed now Anyhow, new release! 2024-08-17 Progression Table, Ship Duel and Recipe-related Conditional Calls are now only available in auto-completions when appropriate. Certain Conditionals are no longer available in Progression Table auto-completions to avoid confusion with PT variants (e.g. 'HasAbility' vs. 'ProgressionTableHasAbility') ExternalVO values in new Talk Nodes are now properly initialized as empty strings.

I didn't use a lot of scrolls in Deadfire so I don't know a lot about their workings by heart tbh. But first of all: including at least one class that gets the highest Arcana bonus might be good? The Wizard gets +2 from the start and with Chamaeleon's Touch it's +3. But if Shared Nightmares works with scrolls I'd also say a SC Cipher (for me it would be a Psion) should be great. Also Time Parasite and Reaping Knives might be awesome with scrolls. I mean those synergies won't click until the latest char levels - but you'll have a great caster character right away. The Barb's appeal is stuff like Frenzy (Blood Frenzy's DoT on crit?), Bloodlust, Blood Thirst (and maybe even the +25% dmg from Blooded), right? Furyshaper to get even higher scroll speed with the Frenzy Ward and later health drain with the Blood Ward? How about a Druid with Cat form? Should be able to cast scrolls very quickly, too. Advantage would be that it wouldn't require any lengthy setup. Just shift and activate cat flurry which is both instant casts without recovery. Can Shifters cast scrolls while shifted? I never tried... Does the PL bonus of Ancients (for beast spells) or Furies (for elements spells) work with fitting scrolls (do the scrolls like Avenging Storm for example carry the "elements" keyword?). Paladins' Eternal Devotion adds its burning lash to spells etc., I suspect it also adds it to damaging scrolls (never tried)? If so this would be very good. Should the lash from Blightheart, soulbound to a Wizard, also add to scrolls and not only Wizard spells I think a Paladin/Wizard would be excellent: high Arcana bonus, double lash on scroll dmg... cannot test bc. I am on vacation in Latvia. Do the elemental PEN abilities (Scion of Flame etc.) work with scrolls? If so all classes who have access to these abilities might be worth considering. Are there scrolls that do piece, crush or slash dmg? Because that might trigger Deep Wounds of the Rogue maybe? Speaking of Rogue: what about the Debonaire's 100% crit conversion against charmed enemies? Does it apply to scrolls? That would be great. Debonaire/Beguiler or -Psion or Debonaire/Chanter could mass-charm and then drop a friendly fire scroll that mostly would crit I guess? Does the Assassin get anything out of scrolls when he casts them from visibility/stealth? Lots of questions and little answers from me, sorry. 😉

Watching Abba: In Concert (1979) in a live stream of our national public broadcaster. It being a somewhat strangely cut documentary style concert movie nonwithstanding, ABBA sure was a great group for mainstream music. Then again, back in the 70ies and 80ies mainstream music wasn't as awful as it is today. edit: they streamed (and, well, broadcast) a number of concerts today, including Bruce Springsteen and the Bee Gees. Pretty nice for running in the background.

Microplastics in water/food. Pesticides. Hormones. Too many sugars. Too much fillers etc etc. And now ... Consumer Reports says rocket fuel. Or more specifically, perchlorate. Fruits/veggies 2nd highest after baby/kid foods. To eliminate all risk, one must not eat, drink or breathe. eg, die. 😛 ....but I'm doing fine, hey no one lives forever - and life is still grand/worth it. Hubby's still in a funky grump but such is life - we're going good overall. Hope it's going well for everyone else, too.

Survived another year. At least the cake turned out better this year.

Again, all I can say is what an unimaginative ending... For all it's faults, the show had interesting ideas, I did not expect such an ending. NGE had a payoff for the time invested with it's ending, even if it may have not been the most original one. But this, this was just a spit in the face.
