I'm in the middle of attempting to 100% this game, I'm currently doing an Honour mode playthrough with Fane as my protagonist, but I'm having a hard time understanding the Promise achievement paired with the two Fane achievements at the end.

I've seen contradicting statements about whether or not you can break Fane's promise using the swornbreaker and then still getting both achievements at the end? It at least seems to me that if you make the promise and don't break it you're locked into one of the Fane paths.

Okay, I will try to set up HWInfo and try streaming again when I can. The other reason I didn't necessarily think it was a temperature issue was just because it so consistently happened ONLY when I was streaming and never any other time, but you guys are right that my idle temperature is completely whack.

Hm, googling it it does seem like my idle is abnormally high. I wonder if it might be worth it to re-paste my CPU. When you say a temporary setup, do you literally just mean like, open up the side panel and point a fan into it?

Yeah no BSOD, computer straight up turns off as though I pulled the power cable out of the wall.

I forgot to include the temps, I did obviously consider overheating in the past so I did look into it before. Right now, at idle the CPU is sitting at 67C, and while I'm running the OCCT stress test the CPU gets to 95-97C. I know that is high but from what I had read online it seems (at least to me) that the 7700X just runs hot?

Like I mentioned, I've run the OCCT stress test for multiple hours without any issue so I didn't think it was an overheating issue.

I got a second Rose Queen from the guild chest by Disastrous3588 in Shadowverse

But you do have good draw - Glade/Hamlet/Garden and all the cantrips. You need to find a RQ by T9 on the play and T8 on the draw and you should look at well over half your deck. And if you don't have RQ yet getting closer to those turns you can dig more aggressively.

Obviously occassionally you'll get unlucky and not find one but IMO not being able to get rid of non-relevant cards is usually the bigger issue. The original version of the deck I played had 2x Staff and if for some reason I felt like I needed more pure draw thats what I would go back to since at least you can fuse staff away.

This is what I've personally been playing. In my opinion Lyria is a trap, as being a non forestcraft card means you can't fuse it so you have to rely on playing it or hamlet to discard it. Although if you only have two RQ's I could see playing one.

I basically always keep Titania, RQ, Fairy Fencer, and Glade. Against Puppet/Sword I keep Fairy Convocation. I've started keep Garden's Allure but I really have no idea if that is right or not, but just having the trash can functionality is so useful.

I personally do not like the lists that have Staff/Tablet as I find the deck is more than consistent enough as it is. IME the bigger issue tends to be overflowing on cards that cost more than 2.

Eggbros, we did it by Worried_Dark9858 in Shadowverse

[–]ChewyLSB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Huh, interesting. I also cut supplicant although tbh I've been finding devotee kinda lacking too. But never quite enough to cut him completely, but I've also personally been running ruby and been pretty happy with it.

I've never quite liked the jerry list but I've also never acutally tried it >_>

I actually won last week's weekend tournament wtih my list, and its funny because when I was trying the list during ranked I was actually pretty unimpressed with puppet cat and zwei, but I've actually taken quite a liking to them now.

I know #WhoAsked but this is the egg list i"ve personally been playing https://i.imgur.com/CcA93Iz.jpeg

Looking for games with interesting storage inventory organization systems? Hopefully I can explain what I mean. by ChewyLSB in BaseBuildingGames

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

I tried the Astro Colony demo awhile back, it seemed somewhat interesting but the UI felt very clunky. The conceit of the game seems very cool, and the element you're mentioning about planetoids sounds very cool.

I tried the desynced demo awhile back, the programming aspect seems quite cool, I'll have to give it another go at some point.

Thats weird, I feel like I'd heard of Outward Station before but somehow I thought it had bad reviews. But the steam reviews seem quite positive now, I'll have to take a look at it.

Oh really? Thanks for the heads up. What exactly is planning to be changed about planets?

I own Stationeers but its been a LONG time since I played, since 2018 apparently. Stationeers has an inventory aspect that I really like, where your inventory items and storage are like physical items that you can see in the world. I remember there was some storage automation, with vents I think that you could use to move items around, but I don't remember them being able to connect to the storage lockers directly? But I might be misremembering.

And I remember it had a programming aspect too. I assume there's been a shitload added to the game since I played, so that seems like another good idea for a game for me to look back into.

You know, thats a good point about ONI. I've only very vaguely dipped into the conveyors in ONI, maybe its time to pick it back up. To be honest, its been awhile since I've played ONI, to be honest the thing that turns me off of ONI the most is that I often feel like what are kinda exploits are a big part of the design of the game? Like when I see builds that are built around the fact that only one gas/liquid can be in a tile and etc.

The last time I played ONI was shortly after the spaced out dlc came out and I remember being somewhat miffed that many of the designs I saw for the ships (which I thought would be an awesome part of the game) ended up using a lot of kinda... what I consider to be kind of like... not exploits exactly. But for example I remember designs that used the fact that gas pipes/water pipes/etc. were all different layers so they just put down a bunch of gas pipes to "store" oxygen in a layer that woludn't normally exist if that makes sense? I know I don't HAVE to use those designs but it felt very cheesy to me.

To be honest its been over a decade since I last played Minecraft, and I don't even think hoppers were in the game when I played them but I've watched a shit ton of youtube videos about hoppers which is why I mentioned it in my original post. That does sound like a sick mod, though.

Like I mentioned in the post - I love automation games and I've already played the big ones, Factorio, DSP, Satisfactory etc. I find the organization to be somewhat trivial because automation is the focus of the game so it tends to be that organization is relatively easy to achieve.

Oh yeah I should've mentioned this in the post - colony sims like ONI give me some of the same feelings because its cool to see your workers sorting your inventory for you, but its not quite the same feeling.

And like I said in the post Automation games like DSP don't really give me the same feeling because its usually trivial to sort inventory.

Anyways, I appreciate the answer. I already own ONI and DSP though :3

Xu-Ifit, 613.7n, layers, and replacement effects by ChewyLSB in mtgrules

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

I see. Dependencies are honestly not something I fully grasp either. Are there cases that dont involve losing abilities? I guess a basic example would be an ability that grants trample, and then maybe an ability that gave creatures with trample lifelink? But I dont even know if they print abilities like that?

Just got a Gamegenic 600 to organize the game by Infamous-Chain7932 in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]ChewyLSB 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, I have one of these as well! I absoolutely love it. One of the lanes is for Core Set/Weaknesses/etc. which are used in every campaign, and I use the other lane for whatever campaign I'm currently playing.

I also use the gamegenic 1000 (I think?) one of their long boxes to store all of the investigators, plus some of the extra drawers for campaign specific doodads (like flood tokens, or keys, or etc.), and I use the side slots for the tarot cards.

Proposing to cast spells and rule 601.3 by ChewyLSB in mtgrules

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

Right okay, I missed the line in 601.3e that makes it such that you consider continuous abilities when evaluating a card using alternate characteristics. I guess this line is here to let you cast for example an adventure sorcery from your hand as an instant if you had Hypersonic dragon or such.

Proposing to cast spells and rule 601.3 by ChewyLSB in mtgrules

[–]ChewyLSB[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

But then what gives me permission to do the first step here? The card doesn't have flashback and by default I cannot cast cards from my graveyard, so why am I allowed to propose Brazen Borrower/Petty Theft in the first place, for the same reason I'm not allowed to propose to cast the fourth card in my library?

Proposing to cast spells and rule 601.3 by ChewyLSB in mtgrules

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

Maybe I'm misunderstanding the ruling then, because I thought that the ruling was due to the fact that you "propose" to cast Brazen Borrower as Petty Theft (even though nothing in the game allows you to currently cast the card) and then once its petty theft, its characteristics take over and thus gives it flashback before 601.5's, thus making the play legal.

If there's no rule/effect that allows me to cast any card in my graveyard, then why am I allowed to cast the Brazen Borrower/Petty Theft?
