Karlach is a golden retriever in the body of a giant devil woman. She was dealt the worst hand of any companion before the game starts and suffers throughout into a tragic ending. Despite that, she wags her tail any chance she gets and doesn't mind giving a male Tav the orgasm of a lifetime.

For players on a persistent multiplayer server, do pals work correctly after you log off, or do they still immediately spiral into starvation and depression?

I just checked my ass for made up statistics. People who romanced Karlach are 320% more likely to be in healthy relationships than people who romance any other character.

I wonder if I should wait for the next release which might be out in a couple months. https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/cpus/asus-adds-amd-ryzen-zen-5-granite-ridge-cpu-support-for-its-x670e-motherboards#:~:text=According%20to%20other%20leakers%2C%20the,%2Dcore%20105%2Dwatt%20CPU.

I'm thinking about getting a new PC and am intrigued by https://www.amd.com/en/products/processors/desktops/ryzen/amd-ryzen-7-7800x3d.html , anyone have a compelling reason not to go that route for a PC intended for gaming?

article: https://www.axios.com/2024/04/02/dei-backlash-diversity Not to derail this thread but I think a big part of the DEI push was a political side effect of the BLM movement and other related movements that were invested in heavily (and successfully) for the 2020 election. That investment...

Why would you ever think this? A <$1000 home theatre is getting better every year and won't stop. This shitty 85" TV is $900 https://www.amazon.com/TCL-2023-Model-Accelerator-Streaming-Television/dp/B0C1J3CGLV That plus a cheap speaker system, a couch from the side of the road and a six pack...

2.99 feels right because the value of movie experience is declining every year along with ticket sales while AMC is holding onto tons of theatres they can't fill. They're probably losing too much money and have too much inertia to adapt to 2023+ market conditions and other more agile theatres...

Kinda weird to hear the narrative designer say that high level narrative building is vomit inducing. Glad to hear they switched to UE5 a year ago. Wayyyy better than hearing they're making the switch now or plan to in the future. Super hyped for this game. They should release it when it's...

Anyone who learns what is involved in leveling the artisan's prize and chooses to max it out deserves all the punishment they receive.

2 episodes in, love the show so far.

I finished system change / system universe book 1 and started reading Ripple. I enjoy it so far! I'm a bit tired of Travis Baldree though, I've listened to so many books (probably 20+?) he's narrated and his range for different voices just isn't that high. It's funny because I had a conversation...

Not sure if I missed it or my de-emojification settings held but I'm glad to have not noticed any april fools horseshit this year. Thanks amod for containing yourselves.

I almost jumped in at least 3 times over the years. I always watched a few vids and decided the combat wasn't for me.

What moonarchia said, with the exception that once you're geared, leveled, aa'd you can get a set of free to play, non-prestige gear and do non latest expansion content. I do this throughout the year, for anniversary stuff or fooling around

I went with system change. Fun so far. Different start for litrpg than I've seen. What's funny is I'm enjoying the verrrry start of the ability bloat that got so tiresome in defiance of the fall. Im a sucker for this garbage.

Now i have to decide what to read next. Options on the table: Finishing book 1 of azerinth healer Read the last few books of the ritualist Path of ascension The Land Reborn apocalypse System Change Any other recommendations along the same lines are welcome.

Just finished DotF12. I hope the author moves on from the ridiculous cultivation word salads, but i also don't know how you can really keep a litrpg / cultivation book going on for so long without it getting repetitive, bland or losing the progression. This book was more extreme in this then...

My favorite overdoing, stupid, implausible server idea. I'd love to see an mmo that embraced the guide type system of player run events based on server politics with some kind of (probably doomed) system from a mega guild taking control and turning the benefits into DKP expenditures. "Confirmed...

Peak vanilla factorio After playing space exploration with wide area beacons, the aesthetics of efficient beacons looks terrible to me.

another planet down... and my beam emitters in orbit around the planet near the star

I read the first book a few months ago. What parts of the book(s) does season 1 of the show cover? I'm not sure if I want to be spoiled on it or not. Not sure if I'll read the next books.

Wouldn't be surprised if Larian published this as a way to influence negotiations on future DLC / game for WOTC and how much the IP royalty payout is. The creation of a campaign builder + Dungeon Master game in the DnD universe (basically another try at Neverwinter Nights) could be a huge cash...

Yes I use the same blocks in space. There's a built in tool in the SE mod to convert between space/surface trains which makes it easier. A key limitation in space is that you start with space belts that as fast as blue belts but have short underground lengths, so some of my very compact train...

For block size I've been extremely happy with what I chose, which is uhm, 32 * 5? It matches the grids in Factorio which I usually have turned on for placement and pollution reasons. You can see a full block below and a quarter block factory. I like this size because I can make a quadrant...

I dunno. I use LTN and I started with 1-1 (one locomotive, one cargo) trains and 1-4-1 (1 loco, 4 cargo, 1 loco). I used the 1-4-1 cargo for higher throughput (mining, iron plates, core fragments etc) and then 1-1 for everything else. This worked well until my systems got more complex and...

2 moons down, a couple planets and some moons to go

I turned on Scan Surface for a looong time on my waterless planet and found 3 million Water Ice.... 6253 space transport and space platform later, I now have my longest belt. I'm kind curious how much water ice it'll take for 7,000 belts/space platform to be less expensive. Not a trivial...

The spaghetti never ends. The efficiency of my relatively organized city blocks is massively increased by a few strands of spaghetti between the blocks. A single belt between two nearby blocks will save a huge number of train transfers, when scaled up to all my city blocks that's a significant...

If I play SE again (in like, 5 years at least) I probably won't include K2. Not because I don't enjoy it, but because I'd want to do things differently than I have already. Whether I'd recommend it I guess comes down to how many levels of progress a player wants, and how much they want to make...

It's an exp curve thing. They'd be better off reducing the scale of that curve and reducing the XP gained from the achievements.

I'm using Coal Filtration to turn my oil into water. The problem is what to do with all the coal. It's still slow AF with this approach. I'm thinking about getting a mod that lets me void stuff, I dunno. Dealing with byproducts is an intentional difficulty in Space Exploration but giant...

Here's one of my vulcanite quadrants. All the balancing magic happens here, and is how I do most of my balancing now for all my different systems with byproducts. Each type of output is put into a container, and then circuits are used to allow or prohibit output. In this case if I have too...

Not sure if you have access to this recipe, but here's what I do with my steam on my vulcanite planet Sending shit to yourself in barely filled rockets will never end. It'll just get less painful. I'm about to send a mostly empty rocket with a beam emitter to my imersite planet because I've...

here's how I deal with that on my imersite and vulcanite planet. The waterless planets receive Water Ice (lol) from an asteroid belt.

Now that I'm more effectively using all my different outpost's materials and being more efficient in general, I'm shrinking my Nauvis base and abandoning areas I cleared of biters to get resources. This expansion was very resource and time consuming and is one of the many reasons my playtime was...

Herr's my imersite crystal quadrant, that I'm pretty proud of. Most of my city blocks is separated in 4 quadrants. This one takes in Raw Imersite, Nitric Acid, Sulfuric Acid, Silicon and produces Sulfur, Sand and Imersite crystals. In the center is a Wide Area Beacon that hits all the factories...

here's a pic of one of my energy glaives in action. I have two massssssive solar farms near the sun that function as partial dyson spheres to energize this beam that autonomously roasts biters. It's one way to completely eliminate biters from a planet or moon. I've exterminated them from one...

Speaking of indulging in wasting time for aesthetic reasons, here's one of what I call a "MegaFactory Block" on my Imersite planet. It consumes imersite core fragments and produces nearly every generic resource. This particular planet is waterless and has no mineral water (which is a resource...
