    Density of the ore within rock, mud, etc. varies, also be sure to keep digging after you've cleared the surface deposit. Usually when I end up w/ no ore it's because I'm full and it's sitting there w/ all the stone on the ground. Or I'm encumbered.

    So we set out tonight to get a portal established for Boss 4. We forgot all the eggs and then the person in charge of the portal forgot fine wood.... glad there's birch in the plains. Did everyone else have their bosses this far away? Was a hilarious journey w/ 2 friends. Fuck the fog, and...

    This was my building hack that I was proud of, I'm standing outside next to the smelter/kiln, the boxes are accessible from inside and out. Inside is a mess, as I'm in the middle of an expansion to accomodate a better storage system. Today a buddy harvested over 300 silver from a nearby...

    1st episode of season 2 out today. A lot of fun world building, though I couldn't care less about some of the interpersonal drama.

    I'll probably give Kate Bishop and Hawkeye a go next month, they really need to release a roadmap though. With all this delayed content (Hawkeye was supposed to be November?) and not much in the way of future updates forecast it feels like they're just stringing out what they've been OK'd to do...

    Valheim - Viking Survival Game (Early Access)

    Repair costs and dying to starvation... these two mechanics found in many of those games are stressful and they've been tossed out with great success in Valheim. If you want to just build you can ignore both of those things and enjoy what you have set out to do. It makes it the game more...

    Spam it. No cost to repair. Can't build a campfire on the floor, need to remove the floor tile. Put a stilted roof tile above it so the smoke can escape (seen here in the corner of my house) Edit: a couple more photos.

    Really like this setup, is this in meadows, so no chance of trolls coming up and smashing it? Dock seems super shallow for bad weather too, but worth it for how nice it looks. After my PC issue causing a rollback on our server, I'm considering just renting one for a couple months, who'd you go...

    Had a setback tonight, my pc had a hard lockup and after a lot of troubleshooting we lost 48 hours of time on our dedicated server. Thankfully that was just a couple of us farming and building and nothing too substantial. I lost my new dock but at least I got a picture of it. Nothing like some...

    A few random screens. Haven't killed/triggered Bonemass yet, that's a task for this weekend. I feel cursed when it comes to crypts, I see that some people have had multiple (and up to several) crypts in one swamp... we've had 1 crypt for every 5-6 Swamp biomes we find (and I've covered most of...

    Yeah, my friend who's a big Dark Souls fan had no problem w/ the boss early on. I am impatient and got gibbed, though I was also a dummy and built my first house next to 'these neatly organized stones w/ the deer statue...'

    Beat the second boss, top of the world, time to expand! Go and establish a foothold on a new area, find the merchant, cool! Once we realized it was a relatively small island (though resource rich, may setup another smelting op there), we decided to sail off to find new biomes. Found swamp...

    Finally got copper. It's a whole new game. Unless I'm missing something else about that image, you probably need to build scaffolding to support the roof you're building, can then maybe take it down after.

    We're enjoying the game a lot and progressing super slowly (primarily when the 3 of us are on, otherwise I bring the server up and farm when it's just 1-2 of us). My problem is I can't find any damn copper deposits. I've seen screenshots of the deposits, and I've seen large stones that seem...

    Loosely related, I hate this Youtube channel. They make 'concept' trailers that get spread all over the place and the algorithm spams them to me because it's similar to content like Emergency Awesome and actual interesting content.

    I hated Freddy Price, especially with all the Securo Serve stuff, but just prior to that is still my favorite times of GTARP over on FamilyRP. Sentry's characters, a great police force w/ Mason, Finkone, Xiceman, Five0, etc.

    I've wanted to get into RP, but always used not being familiar w/ a given server's mechanics as a reason not to. I've been whitelisted in NoPixel for years and never really messed with it outside of participating in some of the stress tests. With 3.0 I imagine the server will go back to...
