Don't feed him. Especially past midnight.

Seals, hedgehogs, dogs, communists, it's hard to keep track after a while.

I think I need to rewatch that. Too bad the DVD's locked away somewhere in my cellar.

Started reading Dune Messiah. I'll try to continue Also sprach Zarathustra afterwards. Try being the operative word. Oh boy.

I can still see what you did there, you dawg.

Finished Wasteland 3.

Silly me was giving him the benefit of the doubt after the reaction to Eye of the Beholder 2, but I guess that thread just settles it then.

Eh, wow. Currently at the very end of Wasteland 3 and it's not entirely what I expected. And by "not entirely" I mean... not at all. Holy crap I done made a mess out of that.

I'm usually a fan of getting to know a system on your own but in WL2's case I really recommend reading up on how CLASSIC stats interact with each other and how initiative is calculated. The combat's kind of unforgiving so playing a suboptimal stat spread isn't impossible but potentially not a lot of fun.

Maybe, but I've lost so often it barely matters any more.

The game, and you just lost...

My mom is in a Parkinson's rehabilitation program for the next four weeks. Had to feed her pet today. She calls it Hugo and luckily it is really undemanding, quiet and not much of a problem when left alone. A bit of attention and some food once per week is enough. It's also quite ascetic. All it really needs is some rye flour and a bit of water.

Play Sekiro first. It's easier to go from Sekiro to Dark Souls than vice versa. You might even hate your time in Sekiro that way. Or give up. Assuming you even want to play Sekiro, but who wouldn't?

In my ideal dream world the creative writing team behind a new sci-fi show would be Robert Hewitt Wolfe, Ashley Miller and Zack Stentz. Doesn't even need to be Trek, although arguably RHW's best work was indeed on Trek (he wrote DS9 episodes like The Wire, Hard Time and A Call To Arms ).

Huh. I watched a bit of that video and tried to remember my Alpha Protocol playthroughs and I can't for the life of me recall having that many bugs or weird things happening in combat. So what's that I hear on the wind? Yeah. Don't play master race games on consoles you peasants.

Sorry man, just having fun. I case it wasn't clear enough already, we don't know which game you're talking about. Oh come on, don't let him/her in on that. They're limited!

Overrated in which way?

Found a Honey Badger in Wasteland 3. Decided not to tame it. The game's combat is already more on the easy side and having such a vicious killer in the party would have removed the last shreds of challenge. I'm certain of it. Instead I tested my party against its mettle. Got a lucky sniper crit in so that went pretty smoothly, but damn, that thing had more hit points than the Scorpitron I came across. edit: Also, why is there a Scorpitron roaming the countryside close to the location of the first main quest? Do they spawn once you get to a certain level or are they just always around?

That's just the thing, there's nothing to pre-order. There's Early Access Grounded and Avowed which was just recently revealed.

Well... no. The game gives no indication as to what is happening, and it's not a quest. Just something that happens if you stumble into something that involves a tetradrachm, a defective toaster and a mysterious cave. "You uncovered the darkest of conspiracies." is just the achievement name you unlock when you find it. Which most people probably will not because it involves keeping an AI controller wet paper towel NPC alive for a long stretch of the game (or through some serious side questing).

I... uncovered the darkest of conspiracies in Wasteland 3. This game is so weird at times.

Ye pure shouldn't hae lit that damned connle.

Nah, I think he's actually trying to say that European women like Arab men because of their superior virility. That's some serious Beta cuck talk there. I'm not sure that's accurate though, that usually comes up when talking about the superiority of big black... male chickens. But eh. Maybe BBCs for Amuricans and Arabs are for Europe. Although technically they're North African, so maybe... who knows. Brown is brown. Also something, something Coudenhove-Kalergi plan, something. I hope @Azdeus will come along and post, because finding actual information on that Arab Party in Sweden is kind of hard. There's an article in a German online Nazi magazine and one from Russia Today, both extolling the Arab Party for demanding an immediate immigration stop in Sweden (especially from Arabic nations) and something or other about 80 something places in Sweden where the muslim invaders already established Islamic law.

It's midnight and there's a ruckus outside. Seriously, what do I live in a gentrified suburb for?

I'm pretty sure that @213374U is just laughing his butt off when the right wing brigade comes stomping in and demands government sanctions of private enterprise because they excercise the very freedoms they're usually arguing for (i.e. as long as it fits their narrative and said freedoms are not used to further some Jonesian conspiracy). Hence the "start your own platform" argument. I sure did. 🤣 That doesn't mean I disagree. Doesn't happen very often but I think Skarpen's got a point here, apart from calling it an Orwellian nightmare, those were very much of an authoritarian government nature. The large tech players have undue influence and too much power. And yes, the government(s) should do something about it. They probably won't because money, but they should. Thanks, Obama! Right? edit: Wow, look at that @ callout not working. Hell... whatever. Ah, now it does. GG board software.
