If it’s not called “Spaceballs II: The Search For More Money” I’m not here for it.

You’re only allowed to be right about one thing at a time. That’ll be six-and-a-quarter million dollars for your arrogance, and also how dare you?

Mhm, characters, worldbuilding, etc… Yeah, hey George? How’s Winds of Winter coming along there, bud?

I dunno man. I know I’m not, but I feel like I’m the only one who was disappointed in the direction of the changes made for Eternal. 2016 was a masterpiece of immersive, edge-of-your-seat-anxiety-inducing gameplay. The story was great within its own narrow confines in service to that gameplay. Who could forget the soundtrack? Yes it had its flaws, especially with some lack of variety, but overall I rated it quite highly.

Eternal felt like a children’s game by comparison: A story that refused to take itself seriously from the very first second of realizing the cliffhanger from the last game was resolved with the wave of a wand all the way through the finale which felt totally limp. Gameplay forced to serve that subpar story, and that sometimes seemed to insist on a “best” way instead of multiple good ways to defeat an enemy. The soundtrack by the same author in 2016 sounds uninspired in Eternal, in my humble opinion. I played 2016 maybe 4-5 times through, and eternal just once.

This looks like it’s trying to add free-roaming aspects and just… gives the general impression the people who made this trailer don’t understand my perspective at all, or don’t care about it. I have no confidence in this studio’s vision for Doom.

It might just be a matter of being more efficient with your route, or occasionally letting go of rooms if you’re already hungry to move on a little quicker.

If you’re struggling with food without Horn of Plenty, have you tried consistently letting yourself starve to somewhere between 50-80% of your max health before eating?

It is a true Roguelike game. Turnbased, tactical combat with exploration elements limited by hunger necessitating careful resource management in the form of food, and later torches to manage an increasingly limited range of vision. Consumable items, mostly potions and scrolls, serve as powerful and potentially dangerous utility items quite capable of making or breaking an entire run in a single turn. Runs may last anywhere from a few hours to several days depending not just on how careful you are, but also since it is turn based you can pick it up and put it down at a whim- but be warned! There is no save scumming. If you die, you die.

There are paid versions on steam and the app stores, but also the author of the “Shattered Pixel Dungeon” fork (my personal recommendation) maintains a repository of free and up-to-date versions, though there is some inconvenience messing with the compilations. Regularly updated with balance patches and new content. He’s even a member of this community, and one of the mods: 00-Evan. Well worth the small price of admission.

That’s wacky, I still can’t see it 10 hours later, but you and people from my instance can. White screen with “Server Error” as the only text on page in top left.

the link is dead. probably a coincidence.

buddy what are you not getting about “fuel makes the planet hot we should seek alternatives”

also we superduper do not need to move goods as cheap and as fast as possible, that’s some capitalist dogmatic brainwashing

Yeah but helicopters require fuel and I don’t know if you’ve been paying attention, but using fuel makes climate change happen.

Interesting, I though the placement of the apostrophe was a mistake at first.

Yes. Someone has been trying real hard to make AI-gen Harrypotter Scifi happen. It’s not going to happen.

Some immersion blenders come with replaceable toolheads too, including a more traditional food processor style. I got a replaceable toolhead model, but no other attachments. Haven’t needed it. I got it for soups in my slow cooker, works well.

Edit: I think I might have seen that some blenders come with food processor attachments too? Don’t have one of those.

I suddenly understand why the science communication community prefers the term “climate change.”
