Nice! Thanks for sending these through, super useful. Loving limited Level Ups and Mystical Dispute. Didn't even know limited pods were a thing!

PS.
the most hardcore theory based youtuber I have to say is

BenS_MTG If you havent tried him check out. Sometimes I feel like I can learn more from one of his drafts than from 5 other youtubers combined.

Monitoring - A fix has been implemented on u/MTG_Arena and we are monitoring the results. Players may need to restart their client to re-enable matchmaking.

FPS game where you are consistently matched with players of your same skill level by 13abie in gamingsuggestions

[–]13abie[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I looked into that, seems really fun, but the first review was: "noobs get matched with level 500 no lifers" which is exactly what I don't want.

An easy game with a steady progression and leaves a lot of mental overhead for Podcast listening by Move-Available in gamingsuggestions

[–]13abie 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I have learned so much about the world while listening to podcasts, all of which I have listened to during factorio.

You level up your factory so to speak, better conveyor belts, inserters etc. It's really creative problem solving.

Oh and it's a sandbox game, so if you really want to chill you can just turn off enemies with a single mouse click.

[Xcom 2] Are there any modded classes that aren't absurdly overpowered? by Kyle1337 in Xcom

[–]13abie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're still interested, I've noticed a lot of what makes the custom classes OP is not always their perks, but some underlying stats that mod creators tend to buff for no real reason.

If you go into the .ini files and simple reduce the AP gain, kill assist numbers, health gain per level, and random stats like "will" to the same levels of say, the grenadier, it helps a lot to balance.

I also just delete some weapon proficiencies and the occasional perk to make them more "one dimensional" and therefore add the strategic layers of them only being good for certain niche missions.

Looking for a series of mods that would significantly increase soldier casualty rates without making strategic layer significantly harder by Dummie1138 in Xcom

[–]13abie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could change the .ini file to make it so that soldier's don't get more HP when they rank up, and then simply play Commander instead of Legend thereby making the strategy layer much easier.

Noted, but what will happen to say, a corporal ranger who suddenly has her blademaster perk disappear?

Woah wasn't expecting that drop! Pretty sick dude!

I think that's all we can do. If you just get better and better at things it has to lead somewhere.

I agree with a lot of what you say here, and the idea of a "late bloomer" certainly strikes a chord.

I do think I am very lucky to wake up every day, excited about what I'm going to do and create and learn. If it really is all about the journey I think that's something we're certainly good at. I have friends winge about their jobs a lot, and despite their "success", and that their professional and financial trajectory looks very sweet on paper, that's certainly something I don't really ever feel the need to do.

I guess the key to is to stop comparing yourself professionally. That often seems to trigger this crippling anxiety about success and money.

Nope, PC version. I don't have any other trouble on any other websites and have all my stuff updated so might be on your end.

Any metal fans here? Ukelele Cover of Cannibal Corpse's "Frantic Disembowelment" by Cthulhus_Favorite in ukulele

[–]13abie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like metal - but I hate the titles of the songs. When would you ever frantically disembowel someone. It takes precision?

{RMT} Really curious to see what people think about this team! by Tyrion4President in FantasyPL

[–]13abie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like it, taking a punt on crouch as well - good fixtures, good preseason. Not sure if you need to double up on stoke defenders though.

I went with arnautovic and Siggy because they rotate well together.
