We had a good time. Too bad @Chukzombi didnt want to come with

Someone needs to tell the marketing team for JPL to not publish zoomed in shots of dudes zip-tying cables, screwing down cams and nervously holding estops. Otherwise that robot looks really cool. I wonder what its mobility system's power consumption is

You'd be rolling the dice every time you left the PC and let them run. You could easily bot up to max level using repeatable instances that you abandon, but once you get there, there aren't really aren't that many isolated spots to run a bot crew that gives you top group gear. Based on what...

cool music video. Reminds me of for some reason

It's a testament to the achievement made and a global disgrace that we aren't looking back on the Apollo missions as a quaint achievement that was impressive only given the tech available. Here's to changing that in the next ten years.

"Why is he trying to kill us?" "That's just how life is..."

TLP has more drama than live servers. What you described is atypical of either server. Most drama is caused by resource contention, where if someone thinks you're invading their camp they'll snarl at you like a rabid badger. I avoid it by just being vocal and polite. I have a pretty fast...

Netflix leads the pack on data-driven decision making. If anything their focus on stats hampers the creative process.

use the existing NPCs, they complete the experience. You can use savegame editors to change their stats/class/race/gender/everything.

There's quite a bit of depth to it. I prefer the mounted combat which is higher speed (as in, translational speed rather than timing). The melee combat can also be heavily dumbed down by setting your swing direction to enemy location instead of mouse movement, which I prefer to play on since I...

The modding community for Warband was pretty amazing, lots of finished and ambitious mods, many more unfinished but playable ones.

I was so dissapointed when i loader up eve valkyrie and it felt like i was playing at 800x600 on my HD monitor.

I wonder what kind of space infrastructure and launch capability we'll have by 2034. I kind of hope landing a rover on titan is not such a huge accomplishment by then.

Flight sims have huge potential in VR the massive viewing size lets you really see that building or plane or mountain that would normally be too small to really enjoy on a flat screen. The problem is the resolution is so low that you just see a pile of pixels. It's still technically better than...

You can use a cheat key for this. Makes the game much myorr usable.

This is terrifying. I imagine the lift is just some commercial thing, but it'd be interesting to see what they could do if they made a custom one built for speed / throughput.

Sauhaugin->underdark is one of my favorite sequences in any game ever. The relief and accomplishment you feel coming out the other side is immense and it was like the furnace that transformed you from an adventurer to a legend.

In the EE version the toughest encounter in the game in BG1/BG2/ToB on Legacy of Bhaal mode is the rat fight in Candlekeep. The mechanics of Legacy of Bhaal make the rats super powerful and it's the very start so you can't prepare your way through it or use any real game mechanics to beat it.

Very cool. I think it's mankind's highest priority to build the biggest solar sail satellite we can and use it to reflect the light into people's eyes to fuck with them. But seriously I wonder how wide of a solar sail we could launch on the falcon heavy with today's tech. It's 5kg and has a...

That could also be a partial list. I'd love it if they brought back all the old zones with just a bump in the mob difficulty and not much else, and then fleshed out with new zones that had progression quests, collectibles etc.

I did. Its OK but not OP. By the time you get it you are a walking god so its hard to beat you.

Fuck jan and his turnips

The only characters who should come back as a playable character is Minsc/Boo and Edwin since they are iconic and on the lighter side. I'm sure Jim Cummings will do some voice over-work, so why not have him do Minsc too.

I'm pretty sure you can install SCS mid-way and it'll be fine. Back up your saves ofc. I'd also recommend not installing all the buffs to wizards letting them cast their bullshit in SCS.

DA:O is probably top twenty. Top ten when it came out easily. There have been just so many great RPGs to come out, and games like Witcher3, Ultima7, TES5 etc get a bit of a boost from being part of a strong, fleshed out and consistent franchise, where as DA:O is clouded by the failure of its...

Interesting that Earth is on the left side of that conservative habitable zone.

I use it regularly but only to do basic things. C/C++ is my primary language with python as a backup.

https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/producers-letter-summer-2019-discussion.258338/#post-3800392 Not excited for +5 levels. It's so much fucking work getting new spells for my boxes, lol. #selfinflictedwounds

Imagine a 20 year project to build a sustainable mars colony that ends in https://www.space.com/mars-fresh-crater-nasa-mro-photo-2019.html I wonder how deep you'd have to dig to avoid getting murdered by it.

Its over 9000!!!!!

After playing like, nearly every big sword and sorcery RPG ever made i have zero problems with a game pushing space stuff or anything else that isnt typical. Im like two hours into divinity of sin and i can tell you im not excited about fighting orcs.

installing Divinity: Original Sin. I wonder if I'll uninstall it after 1hr like I did Pillars of Eternity and Divinity: Dragon Commander, or if I'll play it all the way through like Divinity II.

harvesting bots are great, but I think an approach that shakes the bush/tree/plant and then collects what it drops is going to be the way to go instead of hand actuation. How that translates to strawberries I have no idea. 2:11:
