  1. The reality is, people being realistic about things is the reason we can't have nice things
  2. I have now reduced difficulty in Troubleshooter to Easy, down from Hard. I am not mentally prepared to figure out the min maxing required to finish DLC 2 on hard. Or normal for that matter. I may go down to story difficulty, since at 300 hours, I am only interested in seeing where the story ends
  3. <disclaimer> I am not a lawyer </disclaimer> To me it is a bit like the different approach to garbage in different countries. In Germany, you pay for your garbage weight allowance. It is your garbage. You have your own bin. You have a padlock on the bin so no neighbour can sneak their garbage into yours and have you pay for it. In Greece, you do not have your own bin. You dump the garbage (ideally) in the city's garbage bins. You pay the city tax based on the square meters of your home, and the amount of actual garbage you produce is irrelevant. As a result though in Germany, throwing something in the garbage does not automatically relinquish ownership. In Greece it does. Taking this to gaming, does a permanent shut down of servers allow for the argument the company is relinquishing it's financial interests in the specific title and therefor a non-profit, community run server or a community coded removal of the always online system should be allowed?
  4. Darkspore when EA shut down the server. It was always online even when playing single player. Yes, it wasn't a great game, but because co-op didn't do well, people couldn't relax in single player anymore? Any Microsoft Xbox live game when Microsoft decides to stop the live service on PC back in... Can't remember when. City of Heroes on the other hand proves that if the company is willing, it can allow the community to create the means to enjoy the game, even when the company has no more financial interest.
  5. It's not a bad game. You can have fun with it.
  6. You screenshotted the whole game?
  7. I just wish they had gone more StarTreky in their scifi with colorful aliens. If I am going to hop from planet to planet I want to experience the illusion of experiencing something exotic.
  8. I was going to ask if he isn't around because things worked out with the veterinarian.
  9. Door knob update. Bought a new door knob but it does not fit my door. Stores closed now, so I'll have to check tomorrow if I can return it and get one that fits.
  10. That's why I got some Burrows and Badgers, some Moonstone, and Motu Battleground. Little skirmish games are the way to go.
  11. Today I will go buy a new doorknob. Someone stole the one on my front door last night.
  12. Though Blood Bowl in particular is odd. It attracts players a lot with the sillyness and fun ideas, but underneath that is ultra competitive, with one of the largest miniature competition communities. But then the large competitions are all friendly and fun, as if they were still a tiny niche game.
  13. The funny thing is, the developer sent out a newsletter email yesterday advertising the mod.
  14. The game may not be pretty, but it allowed me to paint my ship poison green to make my opponents' eyes bleed. Aesthetic warfare.
  15. Turns out: I had enough money to buy a ship. Not enough for fancy equipment
  16. I am mostly posting so Wormy doesn't think they killed the discussion - 16 hours without a reply... Since Underspace is now on GOG, I bought that. Since Wartales is getting tedious, I started Underspace. I finished the tutorial fights, including the optional storm chase. I think they seriously nerfed the serpent in the rift fight. That, or the demo I had played had been bugged and the NPC stormchaser had not been dealing damage back then. Now we made quick work of her and the rift. Took the optional route and docked at the anarch station, mostly to ensure I have the location on my charts. Now to decide whether I simply head back to civilization or turn to a life of crime and return to civilized space with a hold full of smut. Also if I buy a new ship here or on my return. I understand you are supposed to buy a ship at this point - all stations seem to be selling ¥26.000 light fighters, medium fighters, heavy fighters, and a transport. I have not enough time in the game to really check the difference between the corp and pirate ships. Considering the medium pirate fighter, since medium is usually something that doesn't gimp you in any category too badly. And the pirate ships are what's on sale here. Life's hard.
  17. That does not even include the tavern staff and tavern guard wolf. My food consumption is in the seventies. Once I have converted a few more prisoners, I'll set them up as tavern staff as well.
  18. The pony is a bloodthirsty drunkard, the wolf was raised by boars.
  19. I half expected it to be a Rickroll
  20. That seems a bit cheap...
  21. Free Stars (or Star Control 2 the sequel) unlocked stretch goals: Keyrock support (Linux) And DRM free versions
