I'm pretty happy about this thing not blowing up.

First episode of Altered Carbon was kinda crap, because they kept cramming so much stuff with weird words into you. With episode 2 it became a lot better. I've finished ep4 now and I will definitively keep watching. The style reminds me a bit of The Expanse, but it is way more sci-fi magic.

That's pretty much anyone who uses such apps. Hell, last time I checked, the default settings of Endomondo had your position tracked and marked on a map live. Combine this with a public account and recorded statistics and you know exactly when to abduct someone without anyone noticing it. Folks are crazy fearless about such tech.

Man, today I googled housing prices in Vancouver for fun, but the prices are so crazy high, how is anyone "normal" able to live in the city? The only more or less cheap places I could find looked... so bad. One was a single room where the bed was right next to the sink and the cooking place, and this one room costs almost as much as my tiny 3 room apartment in Potsdam (it's already expensive here as well). Seriously, does every single factory worker or server come from the city borders? Is it a city full of rich people (because nobody else can afford it)?

5 for normal single shot, 6 for aimed or burst. Big weapons are 6ap by default and they can't be aimed. With fast shooter perk you have -1ap cost, but can't do aimed shots. /Edit: The sniper rifle is the exception. It requires 6ap and 7ap when aimed.

Nowadays I spend more time making games than actually playing games.

Why would they contact you? Did you made some lengthy forum post about this or something? :>

Luckily I'm not the only one with that issue:

Yeah, great. Then you don't know where to go at all. The problem isn't that there is a minimap, but how the dotted line draws away all your attention from anything else.

Witcher 3 wasn't much better in that area, imo. No matter where you went, the eyes kept glued to the dots on the minimap. Probably would have been better to show transparent arrows in the game world instead of that minimap stuff... Honestly can't remember much from the environment because of that.

How long was the shutdown the last time? Also, will this happen every time now? How does America plan to prevent this from happening yet again? Was a weird night. I've dreamed that I have a ferret. The ferret was all energetic and stuff. Peed on the floor, too, which made me go crazy, because I didn't know how to deal with it, because I actually didn't want a ferret. The ferret was just there and then it was mine and I had to deal with it. Madness. Now I kinda want a ferret.

Not really playing anything today. Trying to write dialog the whole day already for my current project, but I am so damn slow. Started about 9 hours ago and managed a fancy 40 lines. :/

I'm looping Joanna Newsom's "Have One on Me" album since a couple days. It's so damn good, but also so very long... can't just casually listen to it, with a playtime of over 2 hours.

What exactly does it do? I'm too lazy to read up on that wall of text.

Uhm, isn't that possible already for a long time now? It's nothing fancy anyway. You can only edit items and stuff like that. It's why I loath the Unity engine. It's not very mod friendly if you want to go deeper than that.

Well, that's exactly what I wrote about. There's too many places to go now.

@melkathi: That was a great read. :D

Still doing good in Hollow Knight. Seems the game world opened up some more now, which makes me feel a bit oberwhelmed. First I didn't know where to go next because I couldn't find the next entrance.. and now I just don'tknow where to go next, because there are so many.

Hollow Knight is beginning to grow on me. Nice visuals, great music. It's like Dark Souls, but not a 1:1 ripoff. Just curious if it's possible to change your characters look over the time.

Can you really play with that big thing?

I do not agree with all of the clothing choices and face changes, but the visual quality is ace.

Hawaii is going nuts right now. https://www.reddit.com/r/Hawaii/comments/7q61x2/ballistic_missile_threat_warning/

Bought Hollow Knight the other day... feels harder than Dark Souls to me, tbh.

Yeah, but 60fps and online function isn't worth the 40€, imo, and I don't believe they believe it is worth it. On the other hand, apparently they aren't upgrading the game to the DS3 engine and I've heard rumors about them not changing how combat works, etc... That makes me extremely skeptical now.
