Ouch. The primary care situation in some parts of Canada is grim too but at least my appointment wait times are 1-2 weeks

A new engine would just have to have a new mod API. Plenty of engines have mod APIs. Nothing's really stopping them, but they really love driving creation engine onward for some reason.

90% of the badwebcomics wiki exists for no reason but to shit on someone for daring to put themselves out in public where others can see them. I completely agree. There's the odd creator on there that fully deserves criticism for genuine assholery and abuse, but mostly it's like "this guy makes a very cringy comic, jump him!" bullshit.

"yeah we always thought this could happen," the family said in a statement. "We're very negligent, to the point of abuse."

Idk what people are expecting to see.

They've already killed people.

I'd go back to around the time my daughter started sleeping through the night. Don't want to risk a reality where my kids don't exist. I'd tell my friend the cancer is coming back, when it's still early enough to do something.

Don't really know what else I'd do. Don't really care. Be nice to live through those years again without changing much else to be totally honest

You got some good answers but remember too, you're only seeing a fragment of those kids at your place. The screen might for example be a special rare reward for them to keep them quite so your friends can visit you... doesn't mean they're on scree s all the time.

My kids aren't particularly screen born most of the time, but when we're out I often relax the rules to keep things smooth. The fact that it's a rare treat makes it even more effective

"I can't fathom it" doesn't mean "I haven't heard the criticisms of this movie". I mean that I remain surprised at how long lasting and vitriolic the hate for it is, as you're demonstrating by popping in to complain about how toxic last jedi fans are while also trying to tell me what you hate about a thing I love.

And I know you don't mean it that way but goddamn am I tired of having a conversation like this every time I mention liking the movie online for more than half a decade.

I wasn't asking for someone to explain why they didn't like it thanks. We went through that six years ago.

That seems to be part of it. I haven't paid any attention to any of the news before it launchedd, because I don't give a damn about console wars or todd howard. I just got the game because my friends were playing it and it sounded like something I'd really like, and it was.

Huh?

My chief complaint has been that there are too many things. If you go to a moon in the middle of nowhere, your landing site will have an abandoned research station and a secret factory and an observation post all within a couple KM around it. These aren't tied to the location, but they are hand-crafted, and as soon as the mod API drops I plan to decrease the frequency they show up, because my only complaint is that I hear after a while they get repetitive. So far I've been doing enough different things that I haven't found the same one twice, a hundred hours in.

Many of these sites contain their own storylines and characters, and links to other quests.

Maybe you and I just have different definitions of interesting. I actually got annoyed at one point during a survey mission because I kept going past something new and compelling that I wanted to explore, but I also really wanted to finish the mission I was on.

edit to add: I think it's specifically interesting to compare this to NMS, which has the exact same problem but a far lower variety of locations to stumble on, none of which have any story or link to each other at all... yet I think we're all okay with the exploration in NMS?

I'd also give it an 8 or so and I haven't liked anything they've done since Morrowind. I think the internet hate-train has its fangs in this one now, and it'll be a while before a lot of folks can give it an unbiased chance.

 

I've been finding a little time to do micro PRs with just a bit of small talk for NPCs I write. Having been out of commission for months, it feels good. I've added a little small talk for Jenny Forcette, Uyen Tran, and Mandeep Singh in the refugee centre.

If there's an NPC, particularly in the refugee center but I'm open to other suggestions, who you would love to get a little more characterization and dialogue, feel free to suggest. Or, if there's a short-answer question you'd like to ask a particular NPC, let me know. In my next pass I am going to try to add a bit of dialogue where you can ask Rubik about where they came from, for example.

 

See title. If you could just instantly implement one thing exactly as it works in your mind, what would you add?

If you don't already know the game but like obscenely detailed, complex, and weird roguelike survival games, come check us out!

 

Due to life circumstances I haven't been able to play or follow development closely since a few months after G stable. Any interesting developments in H-experimental?
