thinking about it, they really have to change DS2 for me to even think about buying it. The first one got a little more actiony later on but it's just so *** boring most of the time playing Amazon deliveryman. I get some people like it but not me.

It's definitely not a game for everyone, that's for sure.
Actually curious about the state of stranding one now that I think about it. All the structures fully destroyed and dead servers. Entertaining watching dan build like the entire highway for his server.

Ragnarok.Jessikah said: »1 + 1 + 1 = 3 is a true statement. You can describe it as 1(3) = 3 and it's still true. But that latter statement is suddenly false when you throw more into the mix. Any way you stretch it, describing it as a multiplier fails when you consider multiple sources of the same thing.
The bonus isn't 1(3), because if they are the exact same bonus, then combining them multiplicatively would be described as 1(3)(3), which is a 9x bonus. If we wanted to combine them additively, then that could only work if they were both different. 1(2+3) would be accurate, but that isn't the case because both bonuses individually "triple" the rewards.
So the only way to properly describe the bonus so it can be understood as you described it (without having to go through a long-winded explanation every time would be thus:
1 + 1(2) + 1(2) = 5
Neither Abdhaljs Seals nor the campaign are "tripling your rewards", they're "giving you the reward two more times".
That's likely how this bonus has always been applied. And while that distinction didn't matter a month ago, it matters from now on any time this event is active and possibly for additional bonuses in the future.
We've learned new information and should describe it properly. so if you had a seal and got 1k from version 2, you would get 6k for the seal run if it was the first run of the day?
And if you do VD for 10k you would hit for 40 because 20 dmg and 60? or half for 20k?

tired of cat races (heresy i know) Honestly, I'm just tired of the lack of inspiration. They're either literally just humans with cat ears or they're just bipedal lions. I'd ask for more something in-between, but I also recognize how tired the whole concept is becoming.

doubt it. long as they can make billions doing nothing they will keep doing nothing. pokemon fans (nintendrones in general) don't care.

They're probably going to chalk it up to it being a different target demographic and keep steady on their course.
They did say after Scarlet and Violet came out that they were going to let subsequent titles cook a little longer, but that was long before anyone saw Palworld's success.

Kinda what i felt during Star Ocean First Departure.
All roakians had animal tails/ears for literally no actual reason.
It never had any meaningful contribution to the plot (at least the first one) that kinda makes me believe the people had cat tails just because they can.
It wasnt even consistent through the game, with many characters actually not having tails.
Only japanese fetish explain those i guess

Only japanese fetish explain those i guess I'd guarantee you Mithra only exist because of someone's fetish. But I do appreciate the end result being something kind of in the middle. Every feature falls somewhere along a spectrum between the two. I especially love how all their animations are subtly cat-like, with aggressive battle stances, pouncing-like attacks, unique articulations in emotes.

Yea, same here. I never played the first one but I am going to do it after I finish Rebirth, which I'm only doing because I can't not play something in the FFVII universe (yes, even Dirge).
I would've missed the DG series entirely had it not been for BG3, I started following Mortismal and saw him talking about it. Turns out I got the game at some point during a Steam sale and never touched it, but it's high on my list to do before the sequel comes out in March.

And IDK why the pic doesn't show, but if you open immage in a new tab it shows.

Wuk Lamat, MSQ NPC for Dawntrail and the first of the promissed Hrothgar females. I do like that design more than Miqo'te, but still not something that gets me excited to try X|V again.
(In all seriousness, this is purely my opinion. Please don't hate me for drawing this :P)

Griselda was a fun watch but I feel it ended too quick. Really surprised with Sofia, she was almost unrecognizable and I can't stand the character she plays in everything but she did good in this

I think ive pretty much made my decision to accept the new job.
Because i cant help but start feeling relieved thinking i can start anew, being a random generic employee instead of the main responsible for every single problem that happens.
Sure, that life was never dull, it was extremely challenging for my current capacity, and i was the big guy of it with highest permissions in terms of system in the company. But also, i was becoming a jack of all trades there. Never a master of anything.
Now the new company that i think i will move to is the very definition of big company. While my current team is only 8 people to take care of everything, in the new company only this recruitment campaign they hired 90, leave alone the people who was already there and outsourced employees.
Its another scale, it will kinda impossible to have the same degree of highlight with hundred of people around, but on the other hand, surely less responsabilities and stress. Also, as i dont need to respond for every single thing, maybe now i can invest in being good in what i want to be good: programming. And with a large team, maybe i can have some experience thats unlikely to have in majority of companies out there.
In the end, money isnt everything. I would be happily give up part of my money for more quality of life before, so im happy to give up the money now if i can finally become a professional developer

Above a cat, there is a dog A surprising lack of dog-hybrid races in media.
Let's petition Yoshida to incorporate Mawgs into X|V (since I know we'd never get a new race in XI anyway). They'll of course make them male-only at the start, but eventually add female Mawgs in a later expansion.
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
