I was assuming Gfted1 was asking if there was a buttocks size slider, as "junk in the trunk" was a popular term in the 2000s for a large ass. As for jiggle, again, there are mods for that.

No, but, as with most things, there are mods for that. I think the Emberlight mod collection I'm using has some mild body alterations, hence why I got dat Kardashian behind.

Crafting Hall mid-construction: Shrine of Set: Shrine of Derketo: I'm using a mod that replaces the standard Derketo priest(ess) praying animation with a seductive laying down animation that seems more appropriate to the Goddess of Passion and Death. I also replaced the priestess' skirt with Derketo panties since wonky physics made the skirt look all types of weird in the laying down position.

I've hit the 200 hour mark (between PS4 and PC, which is what I'm currently playing on) in Conan Exiles. At my cliff-side fortress, I recently upgraded my Shrine of Set to tier 3 (max) and, since my people were clamoring for it, I had a Shrine of Derketo built, which I've gotten up to tier 2 so far. While I'm not a Derketo worshipper myself, I allow it since I very much follow the Goddess of Passion and Death's philosophy of give in to your desires, screw the consequences. I have also been constructing a proper crafting area. The foundation is done and the walls and roof are partially built. Via trial and error, I have found some things out about weapon and armor upgrades, which I thought I'd share here, in case they help anybody out that is playing Conan Exiles, or may play it in the future: With the exception of durability upgrades, all upgrades reduce the item's durability, and significantly. For weapons, a spiked weapon fitting is king IMHO since it increases armor penetration. The weapon damage upgrade is probably better against lightly armored enemies and definitely better against unarmored enemies, but unarmored and lightly armored enemies tend to be easy enough to take down anyway. The armor penetration will gain you a higher net damage increase than the raw damage upgrade against heavily armored enemies, and that's where you need the most help. Durability upgrade is the only upgrade worth getting on shields. It's not a terrible upgrade on weapons or armor, but IMHO there are better upgrades, since high-tier weapons and armor tend to have really good durability already. I've never seen the value of the weight reduction upgrade for weapons. It might be useful on 2-handers, but 1-handers don't tend to drain my stamina quickly enough to justify the upgrade. The weight reduction upgrade is the best upgrade for armor, basically by default. Armor flexibility upgrade is worthless. It reduces the stamina used while climbing, which is theoretically super useful; however, you can just strip naked to make the climb and put your armor back on at the top. The bonus armor you get from the armor upgrade is so negligible that it's basically worthless. You get +1 for the basic, +2 for the normal, and +3 for the advanced. Given that you wear 5 pieces of armor, that's +15 maximum bonus armor. That sounds good until you realize that even light high-tier armor is going to have an armor value well over 100, medium in the 200s or 300s, and heavy in the 400s or 500s. Then there's epic-tier armors. What I'm saying is that the armor increase from the armor upgrade is so minuscule that you won't even notice it.

The following is a dramatic reenactment of me watching the Death Stranding trailer:

**** yes, Malkavians!

Stygians were very obviously patterned after ancient Egyptians by Robert E Howard, so the resemblance is definitely intentional.

Since you already own both games I won't tell you to skip the first title (though, I'm tempted to), but if the first game starts putting you off, just stop playing it and play the FAR SUPERIOR sequel. Watch_Dogs isn't terrible, but it's not good either. Watch_Dogs 2 is legitimately good, it's the game the first one should have been.

I finally hit lev 50 and crafted Stygian soldier armor: Normally, I'd use the helmet hider station from a mod I'm using to make the helmet invisible, but the helmet on this gear is just too badass to not show off. I'm not yet sure if I'm going to mess with the color scheme. This will be my desert and jungle gear going forward, while my Hykarian raider armor will remain my cold weather gear.

KD out, Boogie questionable for game 1.

My next goal in Conan Exiles is to hit lev 50, since it's a fairly significant power spike. At lev 50 I unlock feats that allow me to craft Stygian soldier armor, craft a stone throne, upgrade my Shrines of Set to tier 3, and I'm pretty sure I can start unlocking advanced crafting stations at lev 50. To that end, I've been doing a lot of exploring, since discovering new places gives good XP. I have pretty much the entirety of the highlands mapped out now and I already had most of the desert and jungle mapped out earlier, so that mainly leaves the snow area and the volcano. Before I venture into those areas, though, I'm going to return to the desert and run The Dregs dungeon to slay the Abyssal Remnant boss. I think at lev 50 I should be thoroughly capable of soloing it (likely overpowered a bit). So far I've killed 2 dungeon bosses, the Giant Crocodile (twice) and the Sand Reaper Hive Queen, and over half a dozen world bosses.

That's the thing that stood out to me the most about the R9, not the extra 4 cores over the R7s, but the utterly insane 70 MB of cache. I mean, even the lower models have plenty of cache, but that 70 MB... holy crap! For comparison, Intel's top of the line i9-9980XE, which costs $1800, has 24.75 MB of cache.

It's both sad and hilarious how easily mainstream media gets duped by troll sites.

Since you asked. From the top of the tower looking north: East: You can see my temporary wheel of pain on the edge of the cliff below. West: South:

The new 7nm chips will be using the new RDNA architecture rather than GCN and will be using GDDR6 memory rather than HBM. They will support PCIE4.0. They showed a demo of an unnamed Radeon RX5700 series card beating a Nvidia RTX2700 running Strange Brigade. I don't put any stock in benchmarks from the manufacturer themselves, but it's telling that they targeted the RTX2700 and not the flagship RTX2800. I would assume, since it's a new architecture, that these are Navi and not a Vega refresh, but I can't say for sure.

Work on my tower is complete, the outer shell, anyway: I also built a platform where I put a Shrine of Set. It's reachable with a horizontal elevator: The elevator doesn't line up perfectly on the shrine side, but it's pretty dang close and it works. You sort of have to guess on the placement a bit on one of the 2 sides of the elevator, so it's very hard to get it perfect. Here's the whole complex from below: I had to make a bunch of design compromises along the way because structural integrity is a thing in this game and I was definitely pushing the limits. I originally planned to have the horizontal elevator go directly from the fortress to the shrine platform, but I couldn't build the shrine platform out from the cliff face far enough to make the elevator line up, so I made a little walkway that goes around the waterfall. Next up I'll build a proper crafting area and thrall housing on top of the cliff, then I'll add a wall around the perimeter, but that can wait for now. The thralls can live in the fortress and tower for the time being. I'm itching to do some adventuring before I resume construction.

Kawhi & Co getting it done. They have earned the privilege of getting murked by the Dubs.

Me too. On a less sad subject, is there any word on Kentucky Route Zero Act 5?

I have failed you and brought great shame upon the forum...

You're much nicer to your... new recruits than I am, you put your Wheel of Pain inside. In my jungle base I built a roof above my taskmaster, I even put a chair there so she could take a load off, but the actual wheel itself I left uncovered, no relief from the elements for the recruits. I'll eventually do something similar in my current under construction base. I treat my thralls really well (provided they follow orders). I feed them well, I make sure they have a safe and comfortable place to live, and I provide plenty of booze and orgies. The new recruits, however, I make sure they suffer until they are broken and swear undying loyalty to me. Meanwhile, work on the tower continues.

The map is fairly large. That was more in-character delusion of grandeur than statement of fact. Even on ultra settings there will definitely be spots on the map where my tower won't be visible no matter how tall I build it. I plan to make it visible from a really long distance, though.

I got halfway across this bridge when the temp dropped so low that I started taking damage. I turned back, not wanting to freeze to death (again). I'll come back either with warmer armor (if warmer armor exists) or with plenty of food and/or alcohol (Consuming either warms you up. Drinking water cools you down).

Work on my tower continues: I don't know how tall the game will let me build it, but if I can I want to make it tall enough to be seen from any spot on the map.

It goes deeper than China...
