I think your parents were trying to support you on the downlow by buying fungi tunics from you.

lmao

How does the factory building in this compare with say, Satisfactory or Dyson Sphere Program?

That's another good one. I don't know of another game after Prototype 2 that captured the kind of metropolitan armeggan as a violent, remorseless and confused monster.

What it's like to play turn-based RPGs

I'm surprised I haven't seen this channel yet, I know I'm late to the party. Also this illustrates how stupid turn based video games are. Not the dice roles, just the bingo-style turn taking is so lame.

I am beyond shocked that Horus Lupercal betrayed the Emperor and rallied the majority of the Imperium against Terra, triggering 18 wars against the empire. Fortunately the traitors were handled and the empire resumed its peaceful rule. But seriously, one of the goofy features in this game...

Is a billion dollar money laundering remake not good enough for you?!?

lmao, sorry. @Hateyou , see above

Yeah, Runescape puts out a Roadmap video with and EQ players get "We are tired of making a roadmap because we don't really have a roadmap and were just listing ingame events...." https://forums.everquest.com/index.php?threads/2026-roadmap-status.308423/

and the reason why it matters that this is a world simulation is that I'm "playing" the game by having it run at max speed while I'm recording it in OBS in case anything weird happens and I want to see it again. Meanwhile I'm checking out some options for AI upsacle of sprites. I don't know how...

It was a typo, I swear! I know the name well, since it's mine too!

@Hatorade yeah, I'm a hypocrit. But really it's because this is a world simulation with a graphic UI and god powers, where as Escape the Mad Empire is a tractical RPG. There are a dozens of similar RPGs out there competing for my time, many of which look beautiful. There are basically no...

I wish the AI narrator scene was further along, or multi-cast narration wasn't so rare. Is it so hard to bring a male and female narrator together to read a book?

I imagine my RTX 4080 watching me spin up a Unity engine game and start to lace up its work boots, only to see me load up the most pixelated nonsense I've seen since SimCity (1989). Here's a pic of my GPU at work: Meanwhile, my Ryzen 7800 X3D is suffering under unoptimized C# code that...

I enjoyed this vid, it's a good intro to Factorio for someone who won't play it. But it touches on a concept that's too frequently missing from builder games: a mechanic to demand that the factory must grow. Factorio has infinite research that consumes the totality of your factories output...

I'm listening to the last few chapters of battlegrounds now. Damn i forgot how good James Marsters is. Why doesn't he narrate the trashy LitRPG slop i love????

I started a great crusade with everyone and riggity wrecked them, I mean, brought them into compliance. The land is now fully under Imperium control... Now we begin an age of peace and I'm going to give the title of Warmaster to my strongest leader to keep the peace.

A mere 40 years later the island is full, but no wars have broken out. "Woof" to the southwest has encroached on Terra, so I might create a divine order to assault it. Later... uhoh they all declared war on me. 3.2k vs 452. Much later, the war still exists but their ability to keep it up...

18 years ago, I played it when it came out and loved it....

+1 vote for Black and White. Funny you posted this at the same time I posted this thread about a new God Game I found. https://www.firesofheaven.org/threads/worldbox-god-simulator.16511/ I'd also love to see a Spore remake.

Looking at hte world map there are several decent civilizations. The southeast has evil mages holding a corner of that continent, they have powerful magic. The northeast island is being dominated by Lemonhead guys. The cat culture is taking over several races, including the garlic boys to the...

Instead of a "tech tree" in this game like a lot of builders there's instead an achievement system where achievements unlock traits you can set for your populatino. Each achievement isn't tooooo difficult to unlock, and most are just learning the basics of the tools available, so it's almost a...

I started playing a pretty fun game I just learned about: It's a true God Game, more so than other games I've enjoyed like Populus or Black and White. You have limited capacity to directly command a huge variety of sapient creatures, but have absolute control over the world.

Never say never! Unfettered Emerald Excellence was accidentally hard and nerfed after only... one? guild could beat it. I sometimes wonder if original EQ was actually hard or if most people were just bad at it. Wasnt AoW only killed like, a week before Luclin release?

Yeah, imagine sitting around to compete for loot spawns on a loot pinata server with 16 week unlocks, lol. You can just get showered by gerbil pellets on trivial raid bosses in instances.

There are tons of stories like: Where people who have nothing to benefit from lying about why they got banned claim to have either used MQ2 innocuously or not even use it but have it installed. It's obfuscated by there being a LOT of these reports whenever a ban wave happens with people...

I'll probably listen to the last few chapters of the previous book then... which isn't a big deal.

I haven't started yet but yeah the gap really makes it difficult to be emotionally involved. Does the audiobook come with a massive recap?

What do you think I am pretending? I have no position on the truthiness of the vote, only that the server will be as dangerous for MQ2 users as @Ikkan said.

Yep. And there will be a lot of salty anti boxers who believe the vote was rigged by a small number of megaboxers and go to war against anyone they think uses MQ2.

Meanwhile the other gender: (Yes I know Francis is making a skit you mountain dew drinking bitches)

I only 6box, no armies. I've never used MQ2, only ISBoxer. I guess MQ2 will be enabled on this server? But it and ISBoxer aren't actually condoned. People claimed to get whacked purely for using MQ2 all the time, but who knows what they were doing with it.

Yeah. Much like I've whined about in Divinity , the trend of recent CRPGs is to move away from real-time with pause games like Pathfinder, Dragon Age, Ultima, BG1, etc and toward fully turnbased games like BG3 and JRPGs. The turn-based games are popular with the crowd that likes RPGs, so people...

What's funny about the boxing conversation is that there are few games with the kind of simple but group-required gameplay where boxing is extremely advantageous. Someone like me that plays EQ to box, rather than boxes to play EQ doesn't have much to choose from. As in, idgaf about the rewards...

I think it's a battle worth fighting.

I hope they don't try the truebox approach, it just increases the entry cost which is fiiiine but you still have these deluxe crews running around. I'd rather have a boxing server + a stringent no boxing server. The no boxing server doesn't allow multiple IPs, VPNs, etc, doesn't support /follow...

At some point they condense it quite a bit, and the longer the book goes on the less it's repeated. I still skip through the stat sections though. The stat pages in this genre make sense for printed books but they need to do something different for audio books.

I know you're being facetious but I would never box more than a group in any game. I can totally understand why people would want a no-boxing server though. It feels pretty bad to look for a group in a zone that's got several hyper-capable box crews dominating the best hunting spots that want...

As someone who developed mods / addons for eq, wow and other games, the less information and functional customizability the better.
