    Starting a New Media Business - Looking for Partners

    If you have good content that people want, getting it out is easy. It's not like music where you have a few talented musicians in a band who are missing a proper recording studio, expert advice and marketing to get exposure. If you produce some good content for gaming the community it's targeted...

    My kid lost 10% also, probably because labor was a disaster and feeding him the first week was a shitshow. I learned that some kids have early teeth at birth, I forget if they are technically baby teeth or not.

    Starting a New Media Business - Looking for Partners

    I'd say content is 90% of the job and getting the content out there is 10%. Plus there are many more people who can do that 10% than do the 90%.

    So my daughter comes home from school crying. Send in the big brother?

    Yeah if your kid started puberty and is a monster compared to 5th graders then sending him in the threaten a 5th grader is probably a bad idea.

    So my daughter comes home from school crying. Send in the big brother?

    How old is the brother? I feel like if he's in high school he can't come to the school and beat up a bunch of 5th graders. But if he's a 7th grader it's just his job.

    Only thing that would make this better is if you tell me she tanked the magic adds on Nef.

    Crowfall

    Would not mind having no currency and using a barter system. It seems like it could add some variety to the early game. However it also makes the game a little bit of a pain in the ass to trade in. I enjoyed PoE's lack of currency but only because it was new. After a while it was just a hassle.

    It'll devalue the item, lowering the amount of wealth a credit-card warrior will get from the sale. That's the core reason I'm not that concerned about p2w at this point. I think the key thing to fight p2w is make it so that accruing any kind of wealth at a good rate is challenging and always...

    Standing Desk

    I feel like the standing desk market has to be pretty sweet. People who are dumb enough to buy into standing desks are probably also dumb enough to buy into buying $40 worth of laminate, particle board and steel for $400 because the marketing has the same words as the standing desk marketing.

    It all goes back to the conflict of interest discussion earlier. If these guys put out cosmetic items behind a paywall and make them tradeable, then see that 90% of the cash shop sales were subsequently sold for gold and the whales are consistently the best geared players in a campaign it'd be a...

    Crowfall

    I agree. It doesn't matter whether the items confer any combat benefit, just whether there is a market for it. If you put tabards, dye, appearance-changing items, character/bag slot expansion etc behind a paywall and then allow people to buy it and sell it for gold you're just adding a...

    I wonder what personal kingdom means. I doubt this is the case but if you have to pay $5 for every person after 20 to add to your guild that would be funny. If personal kingdoms mean some instanced and persistent world that builds as you participate in campaigns and has NPCs that are within a...

    Have they said at all what the beta groups means? My expectation is that beta would be a dirty word at this point and they won't want to associate beta with crowfall for another two years.

    Fallout 4

    Coop is one of the major things Bethesda could do to make FO4 a hyped up title on its own merit instead of just the next Bethesda game.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Wife just had a kid, we want more but health wise doctors suggest not getting pregnant for 18 more months. We're struggling to decide what to do for contraception because we hate all the options. Pulling out worked for us for years though. I feel like that's the direction we'll go because we're...

    Fallout 4

    I think part of FO1/2 feeling more gritty and dark was that it was a 2d turn based game with heavy constraints on the player. In FO3/NV the player is so free to do everything that the game can get silly at times.

    Fallout 4

    Have to play with the mods that strip out a lot of the random looted ammo/water/food/stim packs/radx/radaway, and also add in hunger/water/sleep requirements along with radiation everywhere. It's not for everyone and there's nothing wrong with just jumping into the game and smashing fools...

    Would be great if they did that and removed any UI indicator. I love the skill in being able to use twitch to determine accurate trajectories from short range grenade launchers in games like TF and Battlefield, and the spotter/operator pairs we'd have in GW2 when using trebuchets were awesome.

    FF is annoying and penalizes AE classes which are the heart of zerg-busting group specs. If you had FF zergs would just stack single target DPS classes. What you really need is large AE abilities with CC and no hit caps.

    Yeah and I always allied with Mr. House in my playthroughs. There's just something special about being down to 40 bullets, 2 stim packs, 3 water and being irradiated and knowing that a given raider outpost has more supply but you're not sure if you have enough supply to kill. Or that the...

    I liked FO3 better than NV because it was more desolate and serious, but either way Bethesda has more credibility than anyone in gaming to make an open world RPG.

    Fallout is only fun in hellholes. NV had bountiful resources and I think the game was worse for it.
