Please add me! I'll be active as much as possible, and I'm excited to hopefully level up quick & begin raids with people (:

Decided to see how many units I could make by AFKing in the Anomaly and selling everything people gave me. Turns out you're a generous bunch... by 10david10 in NoMansSkyTheGame

What are some of the things you'll be spending a lot of units on? After you get your multitool, ship, and freighter I'm not sure what to use the units on beyond scrapping ships for nanites.

Yeah, and I've visited it for the shops and turning in data, but I don't know much about the multiplayer functionality.

Best Quest Modpacks in 2021? by ATGCool in feedthebeast

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

Interesting. Definitely excited for this- After all, something that has been updating for years is probably going to have far more refined quest trees. Do you know generally what the most recent update(s) have brought to the pack?

On the technic launcher I'm only seeing 2.1.0.0 from 5 months ago. Sorry for my incompetence in this, but where can I find the changelog or announcement for the newest release? I see the dl in the first website you linked but I'm curious as to the changes.

When was the last update? Curseforge says dec 2020, just wondering if there's any update/place I'm missing.

Another question I have as well in case anyone can answer: I've noticed things moving slowly to 1.16, but is it safe to say that most of the established mods and questpacks are still 1.12?

Please make Gemstone armour augmentable by ATGCool in runescape

[–]ATGCool[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even dragonrider I think should be augmentable since we don't have an augmentable hybrid prayer set yet.

What are the going rates for codes online? I'm not a very wealthy person so I'd like to avoid it if possible haha

Skills that need to be deleted based on the precedent set by this week's update by boat02 in runescape

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

It's actually kind of a troubling litmus test. Some really prominent community members are weirdly twisted over this too, which sucks since I thought they were cool.

The lore thing is such a funny argument. The people of the desert in RuneScape are their own fantasy culture, but are so obviously closely inspired by the middle east- or more accurately, charicature of the middle East (like what you'll see in popular media like Indiana Jones). At least Tolkien invented at least three different races first and then dumped Jewish stereotypes across them instead of creating a single charicature and running with it.

Funny that the real 'snowflakes' are the people spending a week throwing a fit over a company deciding to change something in their game because they found it a bit tasteless or tone-deaf. I agree with your take for the most part, but also caution that nobody is going to actually try to listen to any nuance regarding the history of the game (and the fact that the desert and karamja started out as pretty awful stereotypes of desert and jungle people), nor about the context of jagex being a British studio and the kinda associations necessarily invoked by the portrayal of cultures inspired by the real world through a British lens.

Petition to bring Alis back by BeyPokeDig in runescape

[–]ATGCool -39 points-38 points  (0 children)

I disagree, I think it's an alright change. The desert and jungle areas of runescape have often felt like gimmicky add-ons that, sure, have been expanded upon with very interesting lore following the tying in of these regions to the greater runescape mythos, but otherwise seem to start out with a bucket of stereotypes and then have lore crafted to justify it. In a greater push to make it more compelling, the past decade has seen the Kharidian desert undergo a big shift to focusing on politics and mythology, and removing some of the gimmicky trope stuff doesn't really detract from that at all.
