    Kenshi - A Sandbox RPG

    I lost Beep in my lastest playthrough. And I don't even know when or where. I was forming up a squad to go on an expedition up to the floodlands and noticed he was missing. base is in foglands/dreg border. constant fog attacks. do they grab hivers? I've had to do a couple marches to save...

    Kenshi - A Sandbox RPG

    Usually a single iron/copper node is enough. unless you got really low quality ones? my current base has 1 iron node with 2 iron refinery's going off it alone. yeah, things get much more efficient as you go. units get higher labor skill so are faster, and upgraded refinery's work faster with...

    summoners rift was completely retconned. it doesn't exist in canon anymore. this happened years ago.

    Jokes on you. they are going to try and pioneer digital actors. Keanu is going to be 57 in films for the next 200 years.

    Don't Look Up (2021)

    Its climate change. This movie was made before covid. you think the creators were savy enough to show covid treatments being subverted by big tech, and special interests to profit off of it at the cost of human lives?

    Don't Look Up (2021)

    I don't even think that was working. it came off as coming from someone that was so totally ingrained in cali bubble, they weren't even making any insightful jokes there either.

    Don't Look Up (2021)

    Had to watch the dog at my brothers, so sat and watched this, to keep him company. what a piece of crap. starts out weak as a completely out of touch hollywood woke satire on media, social media and the white house. doesn't understand clownworld at all. like, making satire of social media...

    Necesse -solo dev indie Terraria style settlement survival builder

    So, this got posted on r/basebuildinggames yesterday. Hits that dream game, combining some of the most obvious stuff others have, and bizarrely, no other game is really doing.. Progression, items, crafting, menu is basically lifted directly from Terraria. Settlement building is a bit...

    Kenshi - A Sandbox RPG

    dropping off, and picking up is automatic. but assigning it, lets it have a priority level. inventory lock is often an issue. Make sure they have backpacks so they can haul better. esp stuff like wheat, water, 2h weapons that take up alot, or more space then inventory allows. and in...

    shit, carrying your broken team back to a waystation with one leg, while getting beat down 3 more times on the way, is half the game.

    The Matrix Resurrections (2021)

    It is a bit interesting, there could be a proper movie idea here, that your comments bring up. A bunch of different matrixes. Alot more like Westworld, soma, or video games in general. Different people are going to want different things. what people really need is purpose. Some people will...

    Kenshi - A Sandbox RPG

    yeah, if you are at the base stage, you can swap to weapon/armor crafting for a more legit means to outfit yourself, and make huge profits. katanas in particular have high profit margins on time+materials=sell value, and take up very little inventory space. I don't mess around with drugs...

    Kenshi - A Sandbox RPG

    skill caps on training items are so low, imho, they are totally useless. in theory they might have use to get new recruits up to speed, with old guard, in an established base.... but, just giving them good armor, and sending them in to fight with the rest of the group versus real enemies works...

    Kenshi - A Sandbox RPG

    yeah. there are a number of "exploitative" you can do, that kindof make alot of the game trivial. you almost have to force yourself to not do them. Stealing for example. like, why do the mining runs.. when you can just skill up stealing, and never have to pay for a thing again. its...

    well, thats not the same. animals dont get severed limbs, so the bone dogs can't play "limbs" with them.

    Kenshi - A Sandbox RPG

    meanwhile, the wolf is playing with your severed leg in front of you. also, you do get toughness any time you take damage, even if you win the fight. AND, before damage reduction. so, yeah, equip your best armor. heaviest, slowest, with def penalties, so you can't dodge.. but have max...

    Avatar 2 (2020)

    The setting was great. The plotline was retarded, and childish. Disney/cameron can promote. They probably should have done more to keep the brand alive. it WAS HUGE back then... but yeah. has lost a TON of power, from nothing keeping it alive.. and how sadly superficial the plot was. (I'll...

    Kenshi - A Sandbox RPG

    There was a reddit post on r/kenshi that brings up a really interesting design element, that is lacking or busted in so many other games. "what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger" Kenshi is a rare game, in that, you DO, willfully go find targets that kill kick your ass... but not KILL you...

    not sure if these are up to date.. "Document details Created on Aug 4, 2019" dont know if it gets updated when revised.. if not, these are def out of date. "Unused in 0.9.1a and 0.95a." well I see that note, so must be relatively up to date. but not necessarily the most recent. one...

    Kenshi - A Sandbox RPG

    starting a base: my recommend. First, yeah, location. Location will need iron, copper, water(via prospect, not actually on the map), stone, and fertile, note the biome, so you know which crops you can grow first. Location will also reflect what shit attacks you... constantly. if you are...

    Alot of places are questioning Moraine sicing the Red Ajah on Mat. Moraine being again yet a monstrous jerk, and shitting on Mat. I think this is actually, potentially one of the best pieces of writing in the show, if the handle it right. It actually IS a smart thing for her to do. Liandrin...

    "realistic" hahhahaa. oh, wait, they're serious. at first I thought, ok super strength, when she pierced the guy with the spear.. then jumped and grabbed the other guys cape. But then.. the thrown dagger by the other guy, also impales directly into armor effortlessly... and then that other...

    starting episode 7. oh look armor doesnt work. stabbed right through armor with spear. a throwing knife impales directly into armor. more spears going directly though armor. also this preggo leather armor. lol. cover the boobs and waist, leave belly exposed. moraine=Mat was a badman, and...

    Objectively wrong. This is the chick shad mentions at one point, in one of his. She is hilariously positive on large aspects of this mess.. However, she also has a nice breakdown on how broken the production is. lighting, sets, etc. disjointed editing. poor pacing. set ups, not having...

    Nightingale

    depends on the game. Most of them are frustratingly barren imho. the lack of an npc village to come home to really sucks the life out them to me. Conan does have npcs. but, they are really lifeless. you can get npc gaurds. who stand in place, and aggro in range. you can get craftsmen...

    I kindof wondered what your verdict was on that. That you never posted about it, I did kindof figure you must not have liked it much in the end. The combat in starsector is real hard to wrap your head around for sure. Its complex, and deep.. but, also the allied A.I never seems to do what...

    Part of the game. Different factions have different laws on Transponder, and what goods are illegal. none enforce Transponder on in hyperspace. there are ships designed more for smuggling. keep an eye on and understand sensor profile. Sensor profile is the circle around you, that gives...

    The Woman in the House Across the Street from the Girl in the Window

    this feels off. The tag says comedy. the dropped corningware has to be a joke. the title reveal is clearly done in a comedic manor. But the rest of the trailer is done way too straight, like a pyschological thriller. Presumably thats it, its a parody of thrillers. But I'm left...

    Archvale was very fun. has local co-op as well. Free is an amazing price for Deedlit in Wonder Labyrinth. any metroidvania/sotn fans should check it out. its biggest weakness is, its just too short.

    shad said, the dark one did at one point resurrect a male darkfriend in a female body, and they did still channel Saidan. suggesting it was the soul that mattered, not the body. (and that souls are gendered at all) shad tried claiming, this meant trans were wrong.. but, I'm pretty sure it...
