Decided I'm finally ready for Disco Elysium's Jamais Vu playthrough, going with opposite build (high yellow and red, low blue, miserable purple), so far its less fun because most contributions come from level-headed skills like Perception and Interfacing so I really miss my previous buddies Inland Empire and Esprit de Corps. And Electrochemistry is suspiciously silent too. Guess I'll run a parallel High Purple build too.

Through Galaxy, yep, I'm still on the wayyyy old patch before the spellbook merge "fix". Not sure how's it with executables. Speaking of Extended Bugfixion, I doubt I'll play it if nobody picks up Combat Relief mod, because its modder just quit. 'sfunny how I mod my other games to expand the experience, and Pathfinders just to not ragequit.

Orcs are making a propaganda film about "liberation" of Mariupol. Which, if you ignore words (in short, they sound utterly believing they are good guys and all that death and destruction they bring is for the greater good), actually looks like very well filmed and rather damning evidence (and it'll probably become this in the next Nurnberg). Not too keen on translating it because I had to shut the computer and go outside for a calming walk after watching it, can do if needed, but video track can kind of speak for itself well enough, I think. https://youtu.be/tDlBJsQ_7TQ

How about this one?

I like Maje, and you can skip almost everything if you just want to sail off asap and, say, come back for Gorecci thugs some levels later so I really don't mind starting from zero. Granted, I probably spent a teeny tiny fraction of time there compared to you two...

Haff-a-month ain't really necro Bonus attributes is the Blessing, bonus skills is the second one for me. Infamous captain is extremely useful if you play a squishy in turn based and plan to board ships, because otherwise everyone and their dog will focus you in the first round. Item vendor in Port Maje is useful too and has good synergy with 50K money blessing. If you like Eder, not giving him a pet feels like a d†ck move. Piece of adra blessing is way too expensive for something that you will probably still have in your pocket when end credits roll. I never bother with pickpocketing so never use that one and -- unless @thelee says people regularly stuff their pockets with pyrite -- don't plan to. Ones that are IMO pointless: Start at level 4 , uncovered map, fine quality starting gear, advanced sails.

You know what is even better way not to get dead nine year olds? Not to attack your neighbouring country.

"Enemy of the state" cases are traditionally very lucrative for the FSB operatives.

"Everything everywhere all at once". It's basically a feel good film with a simple message of "Talk to, listen to and all in all pay attention to your family, also be kind", but conveys it in a fun, non-saccharine way.

Yeah, what Russia does instead is barges into its sovereign neighbour's territory with imperialistic delusions and scorched earth approach. Thing not exactly on the same level as "hypothetic alleged pressuring of its neighbours into presumed alliance", eh? Sorry, but when I see gross understatements like "Russia is hardly squeaky clean either", it means it's time for the daily reminder of how much Russia sucks compared to the majority of planet Earth.

I was asked once in a "Semi-annual conversation with your friendly neighbourhood HR" what superhero I aspire to be like. The Dude instantly sprang to mind but fortunately my wisdom attribute was high enough to keep it to myself.

Nope, don't think so. Fever was of a very nasty kind, though, maybe contributed. Oh well, got the apparatus, it consistently shows high numbers, so booked a visit with the doc and shall wait for instructions while bracing for inevitable lifestyle change. Scary but better than finding oneself in Obituary thread.

Nothing too interesting: That a drone? Huh. Where are you? *muffled something* Of course not. I'm not seeing. Not seeing... Did it dive? (boom!) ****!!!! **** **** ****ity ****ity ****!!! Plant got blown up! Go go go go go Radio: Drone had dived. Yeah, flied in, **** me. And that's that, my dudes, and thats that. NPZ went boom. Did it come from Ukraine? Really? Yeah, from that direction. Radio: We stopping working, no? Radio: It's on fire, get out! Radio: Plant got blown up! That fire will spread, we gotta gtfo. The video itself is lovely though.

I've read a hypothesis they might declare they have no other choice but to fly their stuff from Belarus over our sky and have their war planes hover at the borders with an occasional "accidental" breach, so on one hand its full aggression, on the other, we can't really shoot down their cargo planes. Guess we'll know soon enough anyway.

Yeah, Europe absolutely must always sport shiny white unsullied fluffy coat and never push back against the country that broke probably every international agreement there is. So what if we are dealing with the bully that sees adherence to rules as weakness to be exploited while mocking and disrespecting those who do try to live by the laws, we have to be nice and let the warmongering **** walk all over us because something something Iraq and Palestine and Yemen something something probably.

Went to the family doctor about fever and sore throat, got hit with 180. Didn't even know it was a very bad number, now I'm still pondering what to do with this information.

I ordered my first blood pressure measuring apparatus today. I feel so ancient now, and it feels that the logical thing to buy next is an urn.

Internet does. I mean, on reddit or elsewhere on forums, browsing for issue solutions, mods, facebook, wherever - someone mentions Stalker and first reply is always something along the lines of "SoC is kinda diamond in the rough, CoP is where it's at, play that one!"

Mine is very first underground with drippy walls and creaky flashing emergency light. Soldiers done, Invisible Mr. Cthulhu somehow done, found the stuff I needed to find, it seems I'm in a finish line, finally thank gods...well helllooooooo, babby's first Controller! Was some Amnesia Dark Descent levels brown pants experience. People always say CoP's better, more polished etc. but IMO it doesn't have a quarter of Shadow's atmosphere.

I know it's going to be well researched and seriously well-prepared but I cannot help but recall Joe Richardson's adventure games (highly recommended btw):

Started Dragon's Dogma, Japanese console action RPG that wants to be Eurojank. Made myself a pawn (a supporting companion of sorts) who accidentally looks a lot like company's system administrator (but with pink hair) and it makes for amusing but also uncanny experience. I think I'll dump him for someone else soon.

They're thinking too small, should have gone right for cancelling the purchase of Alaska.
