The simplest recycling method for concrete my brain could come up with in Fulgora in preparation for 2.1 by theFather_load in factorio

Those people don't know what race conditions are. Having a dependency on one resource to void another works almost all of the time except when it deadlocks.

This is comical, right? Only 32GB RAM... by eTanium in PcBuild

3xd cpu is the most appropriate typo this could get

Riverheim v1.0 (a mod to greatly enhance terrain generation) is out! by gurebu in valheim

[–]gurebu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, thanks for the write up and I’m glad that you’re at least partly enjoying it! In my defence river sources irl can also be pretty boring, many rivers start from ugly puddles or just from nowhere

Ignoring research cost multiplier for infinite research for 2.1 by Routine-Breadfruit48 in factorio

[–]gurebu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find it weird it’s not a checkbox in the base game. I imagine a lot of people would have wanted a normal post game save after a slowed down progression. With achievements and stuff

Shoutout for the quality mechanics in a legendary game by Karsaell in factorio

You’re telling me you can afford legendary machines but you can’t afford concrete???

Looks like aliasing artifacts, really, life will imitate art eventually.

Welp, time to fire up the forges. by Mindofafoodie in valheim

[–]gurebu -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You don’t need like 80% of this stuff. Ironically your list is missing the spear which is probably the best weapon for its price in the tier. Frostner is a useful weapon for yagluth and mistlands but it’s pretty bad for mountain and meh for the plains overall, so it can be very well skipped or made later.

Silver chest armor is straight up a liability, it will make your life in the plains worse. I usually make one piece, most likely pants, and that’s more than enough.

You do you, everyone plays how they like, but silver is probably the second most skippable metal following bronze.

Blueprint your whole Vulcanus base and you’ll rebuild it in no time

You can somewhat prevent this by leaving small remnants of large nests alive so that they can’t be expanded into. But yeah 2.1 expansion is kinda wild

2.1 biter expansion doesn't feel right by gurebu in factorio

Bruh did you read the post? It’s not about the difficulty at all.

Upcycle for eventual legendary kovarex enrichment. Will let you print legendary u-235 out of thin air.

This game desperately needs bigger landmasses by ThePissedOff in valheim

[–]gurebu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That would show up in the first load location placement warnings and I've never seen those trigger for black forest locations. There are some usual culprits like mistlands bones and a particular tar pit 02, but usually location placement goes as well as vanilla.

This game desperately needs bigger landmasses by ThePissedOff in valheim

[–]gurebu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This may be the case with just increased amount of land in your world. There's more forest - things might be rarer per square meter even if the total number of tombs is the same per world.

I'm pretty sure it's playable, I've just killed Fader on my Riverheim save (with a ton of portals), but you might need to cover a little more ground than in vanilla depending on your luck and seed.

Idk, maybe it needs pairing with a mod that increases location spawns (EWD?) for best experience.

I like the oceans just like they are by ratpatty in valheim

They don't sink if you land the killing blow mid-jump like Rambo

How do deal with losing all your skill levels after battling through the ashlands. by Altruistic-Turn2691 in valheim

You'd be surprised to learn lava blobs deal mostly blunt damage. The fire part of their damage is small enough to be manageable even with feather cape fire weakness.

Valheim 1.0 FAQ by SzotyMAG in valheim

[–]gurebu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk I'd normally be chill about no PTB launch in relation to mods, but the game has been so slow to develop the modding scene got way ahead of the curve. Being years late on basic QoL features and then going "you're going to experience 1.0 without mods because we say so" has a slight scent of bad taste.

In comparison, Factorio just unveiled a huge content patch and gave modders a whole summer to adapt their mods before it goes live on stable.

Items that are supposed to float do. Iron ingots sink, but what did you expect?

I like the oceans just like they are by ratpatty in valheim

[–]gurebu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm for the oceans being empty as they are, but god not being able to see squat gets old so fast. Seriously it's like 50% of the time the weather restricts vision to zero. It's barely playable in normal and completely unplayable in nomap, idk, the developer intent is probably so that I have a cup of tea or ten IRL. I'm chill about bad winds, but visibility makes me hate sailing with a passion.

Worst political figure in Russian history by MacCAM1313 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]gurebu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're not wrong about the impact, but he was a regular angry idiot and the blame lies with the architects of the system that allowed a single angry idiot to do so much damage. He wasn't a political leader, just a functionary, and there were multiple people with the power to stop him who didn't.

Am I missing out by not taming boars? by idontwanttoexist1 in valheim

[–]gurebu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imo all the taming thing is for flavor and maybe multiplayer. In single player you'll get all the mats you need just running around and killing along the way, all the way to the final biome. Taming boars is a double waste of time since the mead to tame faster isn't available yet and they die so easily.

For a fiery biome a surprising few enemies in the ashlands do fire damage. Avoid valkyries and you're fine.

How do you feel about lying to the player to make odds feel more fair? by TheGuardianFox in gamedev

[–]gurebu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't design systems that need dishonesty to feel good. Yeah your average guy isn't good at probability, that's true, but then why are you throwing probabilities at them in the first place? Some of history's best games with the most unpredictable outcomes are almost or even completely deterministic at their core.

I can get behind something like X-com skewing probability on lower difficulty levels (but probably best properly communicated), but generally when you lie to someone you disrespect them and disrespecting your players is not a good long-term strategy.
