    Coronavirus Updates, Important Information, and Ancedotal Experience

    As someone who lives in one of the current 'hotspots' in Pennsylvania, I would like to thank all of the fuckfaces from New Jersey/New York who fled their state and brought the plague with them to mine. Have already had to 'run off' and report two guys sneaking around with guns, looking to poach...

    Rumor dancing around is that they are going to delay Shadowlands due to Corona and they are trying to soften the blow. Not sure I buy it, they would release it half-finished anyway.

    Stellaris

    If you are playing on a map 800 or 1000 systems large, with any amount of habitability over the standard, yeah, it gets real slow late game. Better than it used to be, but a month still takes 50-60 seconds.

    The Red Letter Media Appreciation Thread

    If you enjoyed the JJ Abrams Star Trek more than you did the OS/TNG, then Picard is up your alley. If you miss the days of exploration, political intrigue, and new aliens/problems/etc, Picard is 100% a miss. It is a jumbled mess that cannot decide if it is in the OS/TNG timeline or the JJ...

    And now we are getting a Shelter In Place order. Lots of fun. All of the idiots from the cities who have vacation homes are here. Hope they brought supplies, all of the stores are picked clean.

    AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Building on a great deal of feedback and discussion, we’re working on an update to the game. With the next regularly-scheduled weekly maintenance in each region, players who have earned a given Rank 3 Essence on one character will be able to directly obtain that...

    My Mage? SEVEN PAIRS of 465+ pants, one good corruption (Infinite Stars). NINE, yes NINE pairs of 460+ gloves, not a single corruption other than +2%. Still rocking two 450ish rings and my trinkets are both 445-450, M+ rng gods shitting on me.

    Corruptions should have 100% been disabled in ranked PVP. But of course it is not. Gotta keep that carrot dangling.

    Make sure you have plenty of salt to cure some of that meat, an outdoor smoker is not hard to set up, either, but harder to disguise.

    Corruption system would be better with a few tweaks... 1) Make it so you can spend Mementos/Visions to re-roll the corruption on an item or to put corruption on the item. If you want to keep it time sink, then make a limit to how many times you can do it per week or double the cost each time...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    I am relatively sure we are arguing the same point? I dislike RTwP. I like Turn Based. I just finished up Kingmaker recently and it was annoying with how small the text/info box was. With a party of six, most of them having 3+ actions per 'turn', it was almost impossible to figure out what was...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Playing Pathfinder: Kingmaker and Pillars of Eternity 1 or 2 really hammered home how much I vastly prefer Turn-based to Real Time w/Pause. It makes more sense with the D&D system as well.

    Acquisition for Corrupted Gear could have been made much better... Horrific Vision gear should ALWAYS be corrupted.

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    I have come to vastly prefer turn based compared to real time with pause. I guess I am just older and my reflexes are a bit slower. The Baldur's Gate games also had very interesting AI options, that I remember. Being able to set them to cast certain spells on certain conditions and whatnot...

    My issues with Season 3 were how poorly they handled the character development for Hopper and Steve. They were both heavily 'Flanderized'.

    90%? It is more like 1% for people who do Mythic at all, like .25% who do it before catchup mechanics.

    Did Everquest 1 - Project Monster (?) ever make it to alpha or beta? PC mobs

    It was an amazing amount of fun. Sad that they never made a server out of it or a special event in random zones once in a while.

    They certainly seem to be raking in the cash. It was their big pusher in Q4. And they are finally planning to bring it to mobile.

    This is their entire method since... WoD? MoP? Gain new abilities for an expansion, then lose them for the next one, this way they do not have to 'change' the classes. Look at how they stripped everything down in BfA. Most classes lost the majority of their non-basic abilities, so we could get...

    Playing through it (Pathfinder: Kingmaker) now... Fuck Swarms of enemies in the 3.5 system. At least in 5e, you deal half damage with a weapon.

    They keep doing this same shit system. They cannot balance anything worth a spit. Legion: Legendaries are either class defining or worthless. Relic traits are either class defining or worthless. BfA goes all in... Azerite traits are either class defining or worthless - ON THREE SLOTS...

    I like how they are saying they 'spent millions'... buying gear from other players. The shit that Blizzard has been trying to stop forever. Good luck with that being your basis for an argument. I do think you should be able to RANDOMLY corrupt a piece of gear. Say... 100 Mementos. You can try...

    I use my terrier for ratting in the spring/fall. Wood rats love to set up not far from the out buildings, terrier gets right in there, rips them right out of the ground, brings them back for praise/treats. Will do the same with rabbits if given half a chance. My GSDs 'herd' the chickens and...

    What did you just read?

    Children of Time was very interesting, I enjoyed the themes it played with, but I was shocked when I learned about how many awards/accolades it had received. Still a good read, though.

    Depending on the situation, you would also have to take into consideration that the dogs that were not saved/put down, would relatively quickly go 'feral', assuming that they are in an area without many other apex predators.

    Only reason I go to the local church is for this. All the old-timers and the newer people who are not idiots stick around and chat over coffee for an hour or two after services. A healthy community (in terms of skills, knowledge, and materials) is an absolute requirement for any situation to...

    Dehydration lasts longer, in theory, but (in my opinion) tastes significantly worse. The only thing I dehydrate is red meat for jerky or pemmican. Canning is more expensive and if you do it wrong, more likely to kill you. EDIT: Peppers. Herbs. I also dry those, but that is more for seasoning...

    Eh. I live on an old farm from the 1800s. About three miles of forest between myself and the nearest paved road, which is then about 17 miles to the nearest major road. Bordered on three sides by state gamelands (500+ acres in two directions, only like 48 in the other). Four wells, two with...

    Damage dealt by Infinite Stars, Twisted Appendages, and Gushing Wound (Corrupted Effects) is now based on the item level of a Corrupted item, rather than scaling dynamically with Attack Power and Spell Power. Developers’ note: Previously the damage dealt by these powers was modified by...
