Went out to a local-ish Indian casino for my cousin's birthday last night and they had these, like, arcade-style Craps tables. I put in $20 and got myself up to about $140 at one point before ultimately crashing back down. I considered cashing out, but then I thought, I won't have anything else to do for the rest of the evening, and I'll have all this money, and I'll be feeling extra celebratory so I'll probably just drink it away anyway and not be able to drive home so really the responsible thing to do is lose it all gambling

A very long time ago I posted a drawing of the Grundle King with a little weenie. The actual real story behind that drawing is that one of the many ideas I had for My Little Brony was that the Grundle King would show up in the finale with a dong rigged for inverse kinematics. To date I think it’s the funniest thing I never animated.

As a DM I'm struggling hard creating satisfying roleplay moments. So far I used my NPCs to direct the players from place A to B to whack on enemies. I tried to do something, but my players were adamant going the most efficient and direct path. E.g. they skip encounters and don't make prisoners. I threw in moments to gather information but they didn't take the bait. I had to info dump them with a Harper they rescued who was investigating a dragon cult this session because I feared that they don't catch up otherwise. At the end of the session they took finally some prisoners who are leaders of the cult's cell.

this phenomenon of people who rely on ChatGPT is crazy to me because when I come to it for logistical problems with one right answer it’ll still spit out nonsense. And people are taking LIFE ADVICE???

Beheading as Dark Urge in BG3 feels wrong. But I did it because he's a murder hobo.

It's nice to have finally white miniature model paint. The Citadel tubs are dry as the desert and gone completely unusable. This time I bought Vallejo paint in those nifty eye drop bottles. Additionally I also got some other paint like yellow, because Army Painter's yellow was not opaque enough. The shop I've ordered from also added ball bearings that I can add for better shaking and mixing performance. Also got a few Vallejo synthetic detail brushes.

Modeled a miniature holder myself https://i.imgur.com/xufhhPj.jpeg Minis without a big base are definitely problematic at the moment. I need to make extra vise jaws for low-profile bases. But that isn't a problem because I have the CAD model.

"Superman" was really good, "Weapons" also was good, and damn it even the "Tron: Ares" trailer looked good in spite of the Jared Leto-ness of it all

Turn-based combat is king. All those attempts to do a hybrid approach are failing in my opinion. I think Diablo has poisoned these games with the fancy real time hack and slash combat. I like D&D for intense strategy combat and not for the real-time hectic confusion. I have a party of 4 people against 5-10 enemies. I am too slow to even judge the situation and make a good decision.

@zeldatra Yeah. The companion AI might also do a lot of heavy lifting there too. Imagine how bad it would look like if the other characters were potatoes and did the worst decisions. In BG3 I was peeved off any time (out of combat obviously) whenever a character stepped into a trap or dangerous zone. I had to reload and redo a fight because a NPC character completely out of my control stepped into an AOE effect (Moonbeam spell) that was active when every enemy died. Then due to that dumbness the NPC went hostile against me because he was that dumb.

@zeldatra Hearing about the new battle system actually piqued my interest in playing the remake, I'd previously been put off by hearing about the plot changes

If corporations are people how come Big 5 doesn't get jury duty?

Prime example is the ill-fated Bioware game "Jade Empire". It went down-hill making that in any way real-time with the turn-based combat system in the background.

BG2 (enhanced edition) is rroooooough. The UI is abyssmal. I think whenever I try it again I'll install a UI mod to make it usable. I had some problems with BG3 with all the boxes and containers and the cumbersome context menu to send items to camp and party members, but BG2 is on a whole new level of awfulness. I get it was a product of its time but come on, it doesn't need much to improve things I noticed within the first minute.
Also I miss the turn-based order. This pseudo-realtime is bugging me a lot. KOTOR 1 did that better.about 10 months ago from web -

I think people should be allowed to use whatever bathroom they feel most comfortable in. That's why I walk up two flights of stairs to use the bathroom that's always empty.
