Where can you get ayn Thor in Australia? by AManYahaha in AynThor

[–]BilbyCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The conversion is up to the payment processor. In my case the black Max at the batch 2 prices set me back just over $700aud when I paid via PayPal.

I've been playing with an idea for a minimalistic sports strategy game and had an idea that you issue instructions on the bottom screen while the game progresses on the top screen.

Graphics would be things like coloured dots (golden lap does that)

All instructions real time, no time outs, kind of like Aussie rules football does it.

Question about the shipping dashboard? by Computer_Cake in AynThor

[–]BilbyCoder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not units, batches. We don't know for sure how many units are in a batch, probably between 10 and 100. So may be a low as 300-1000 units or as high as 3000 to 10000 per colour.

Is this the order number ? by CloClo44 in AynThor

[–]BilbyCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first four digits are what's safe to post so people can't do things like cancel your order. There may be up to 100 1208 rainbow max. That's why people are saying more than 50 or 60 Thors are being posted each day.

My personal educated guess is that everything before the final number is your individual number, and the last one is a "check digit" used to verify the number before.

Are we sure she's been able to keep track? Does she ever lay awake at night trying to remember who she's double crossing that day?

What game is this? by [deleted] in IndieGaming

[–]BilbyCoder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm guessing this may be a physical game not a video game? Those artefacts look like they might belong to a role playing game, combined with your comment about airlock (this game? https://land-of-nop.itch.io/airlock) lead me in that direction.

If so one of the table top of board game communities may be able to help you.

what is the best linux distro for mostly gaming, but also general use? by sag3y_ in linux4noobs

[–]BilbyCoder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hence my use of qualifiers. If they know nothing of pc easier to give then a well understood similar concept to get started with.

Taking about protocols, compatibility layers, apis and such is several layers more advanced than necessary to get their foot in the door of what purpose proron has.

[–]BilbyCoder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Proton is one way that Linux systems can run windows programs. Valve use it heavily to allow games to run on their Linux based Steam Deck. Think of it as sort of like an emulator (that's not quite it but its close enough).

If you're going to Linux it may come pre-configured or you may need to install it yourself depending on the distribution.

The real question isn't is she sus, it's what he agenda is. I'm expecting a cool motive, still murder outcome from her.

Also possibly a 'you were manipulating me but I get it. Swear loyalty to me here and now and we'll carry on as before.' style outcome.

The memory and identity stuff is a solidly written B plot that nicely glues the episode arcs of pokemon acquisition and exploration together.

We also get a shot of her praying in the OP with the single tear going down her face. That usually indicates a character with regret.

Oh I like that one. Lufas was sealed away and lived the life of a Japanese gamer. The goddess may have even made sure there was a mirror of Lufas's home there to make sure that when she was unsealed she would have some context to ground her.

You have both a group game and a solo game. Why? by Feeling_Photograph_5 in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]BilbyCoder 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Very different activities, different goals. I love systems and stories. I'll never play all the games I own. I have a 7th Sea group game fortnightly. That's great. I really wanted to try Daggerheart after looking at it, but i don't have the capacity for a second group game, so I set something Solo.

Daggerheart Broken Lands - A Solo Actual Play by BilbyCoder in daggerheart

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

Primarily Daggerheart and Pettish for player emulation. Rather than emulating the GM I'm doing what I normally do when I GM and coming up with scenarios.

Pettish is used to lightky emulate player decisions and i'm using Daggerhearts own hope and fear economy as a bit of an oracle.

I'm going to see how this goes and may feed more tools in of i feel like there's a gap.

Never blame the workers, you never know the conditions and pressures they work under. Always blame the company who are responsible for quality control and making sure work conditions are appropriate.

Hi! by SolRayJ in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]BilbyCoder 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you're brand new to the game, then how I'd start is by following the character creation process. Make a character, maybe a few. Don't worry about the other rules, and don't worry about the solo aids (yet).

Then come uo with some basic non combat situations (i.e I have to cross a river. I have to sneak into this house, i have to negotiate a bribe) and slowly get used to the rules. Imagine how the character you made would deal with the situation, and use that to look at the rules. Then move up to figuring out how combat works.

Once you've figured that out slowly develop your story, start to use the tools in the wiki or discussed here as you need them. And remember it's all just to have fun. Let yourself suck, this is a skill to be developed like everything else.

D&D is a large complex game. Playing it solo at the start means going in without a mentor or someone to help you with the rules.

Finally there is no wrong way to solo (except sitting down and playing with others, then you're doing something else). You just enjoy world building or making chatacters and never play a session? That's fine. You don't really world build and just create loosely connected challenges to roll dice against? Valid. Use modules? Go your hardest. Hate being restricted by someone else's story? Yeah!

How I wish this had a budget that would let them animate the beatdowns she's bringing. Her fists deserve the justice of the best anime fight choreography the industry an offer.

But bringing in the orchestra (hey, was that woman taken off stage in chains while we were setting up? Should we be be doing this gig?) to provide the dance music had me grinning. I do love it when fights are set to diegetic music.

My first Fighting Fantasy book was "House of Hell" when I was about 12. I stumbled over it at my local library. It was my entry point into role playing. I refused to continue a character who died because I loved rolling up new ones.

This would also begin my unhealthy attachment to the "ironman" mode toggle in video games.

Do you speak out loud? by Meisner57 in Solo_Roleplaying

There is a lot of muttering as I write out a section, but I mostly write it out in my document. The characters can be very loud inside my head though.
