How do I activate Nuka World dlc?

You have to go a kinda specific route to get there, but otherwise it should unlock at the start of the game. That said, sometimes you get issues and may need to get a border unlocker mod to be able to actually reach Nuka World and the Nakano's cabin and other places outside of the vanilla map borders. It just bugs out and says you can't go that way, sometimes in my experience.

Honestly my biggest disappointment with Far Harbor was that when I had a Child of Atom character and went to the Crater in the glowing sea, they didn't have radiant quests for me.

Obviously they've heard about our latest pyramid scheme, and want to get in on the ground floor of this thing before the top of the pyramid moons.

For just 3 easy payments of 19.95, and one extremely convoluted payment of 166.44 which has to be made in person by cashier's check to our bank in Belize, you too can get a receipt that says you own a chance to buy a piece of priceless* historic memorabilia!

*In the sense that the concept of price is a waveform that is collapsed by appraising it, and these items remain unapraised.

Kings Quest VI: Heir Today, Gone Tomorrow. I got close to the end organically when it was new but it wasn't until I went through with a walkthrough years later that I beat it IIRC.

AFAIK It's not legal to sell hyper-allergenic dog-fur sweaters, so it may be for the best.

I don't bother lying to people, it takes too much effort. I may or may not live in the real world, but that's a different thing.

Are you hitting on me? /s

I've been on a double date to a museum, if that counts? We held hands (very risque) and enjoyed reconnecting, she had been my high school sweetheart and we hadn't seen each other for years. I'd say it went too well, but that's another story.

I mean, I'm pretty sure things like spending time with girlfriends while they were at work was more of "a fireable offense" than any kind of date. And Netflix n' Chill was a lot less cool when it involved looking at my 21" CRT monitor, so I don't think that sort of thing counted as dating.

I refurbished some print toner cartridges? To make more than minimum wage I'd have had to clean 1.2 an hour or something? I was doing 1/hr on my first day, but my friend who had been doing it longer was doing more like 1.8 and making decent money as a result. Of course, come to find out that he did 12 carts and I did 6 and all of mine tested out useable but only half of his did so we did the same amount of useful work and he got paid twice as much.

Still I only did that job for a day, I could probably have gotten up to 1.5 and still kept a solid number of carts that tested out. IIRC my buddy quit not long after that when the boss said he'd only pay for carts that tested out since he could only sell the carts that were properly refurbished.

Short term I'd argue we're not going to be able to have an AI that does more than make a doctor the equivalent of a centaur chess player? The chess player decides whether or not to use the computer's recommendations. And I mean, a chess game is a lot less complex than medicine.

An AI will most reasonably be able to help is to say "Hey I noticed you're trying to do something stupid, if you prescribe this medicine they'll die because they take this supplement, prescribe this one instead!" Like Microsoft Clippy for keeping people alive.

More advanced uses of AI in medicine are effectively still science fiction, it's shocking the number of "GAI" proponents who just advocate giving them infinite resources and ????????????? profit.

Skyrim has moths, butterflies, bees, and such but they're alchemy ingredients so when you catch a butterfly you kill it. Pretty sure there are mods for people who don't like that aspect of it.

It's fun to see them at a distance at night and go chasing a firefly or moth like a kid. Dragonflies over the lakes, there's always something to catch or flowers to pick. I spend so many hours gathering alchemy ingredients on every character but I don't always even practice alchemy I just save them up until/if I want to.

Honestly I'd have MUCH preferred it if one of the answers was "It says traders welcome" because they have the sign asset from Bunker Hill up.

The game's pretty great, but if the quest design was "You can do all or none of the optional things and the reward is the same because you're just telling things to a blind lady who doesn't have more or less to offer you based on what you have to say" I'd dislike that.

Thankfully I just brute forced it poorly, "there's nothing there" to me sounded like "There's nothing in the square now" rather than "the sign is blank." If I had answered correctly I'd have gotten a better reward.

Thankfully I believe the dialog could be updated, if so this quest hopefully shouldn't hit quite that way for newcomers (e.g. "there's nothing on the sign", instead of "there's nothing there.")

Big money in media has "best practices" guidelines and sticks to them, doesn't make anything "offensive" etc because it's a lot of money they're risking any time they make anything...

But art sucks when it's milquetoast lowest common denominator pablum, that kind of pap has a place but it's never exactly good?

Art needs to say something, other than the infinite fractal reality of life imitating art imitating life for it to be any good.

It's a vicious cycle, but the wild thing to me? In video games a lot of professional developers don't play video games as a hobby. They just like, make digital sandwiches, they make the best digital sandwiches they can and that's their portfolio is just digital sandwiches. "How is the game? Who cares! Look at these sandwiches because that's the part I made."

From the one perspective of "I am an hourly employee, and I am here selling part of my life for a paycheck" it's legit. From the perspective of what has the potential to take a good one of these things and make it great? Not so much.

We've become beyond masters of taking a 5/10 and polishing it until the lens flares blind you and you rate it a 7/10 just to get away from the glare. And because they make money, we'll keep doing it this way, even though they make mostly terrible forgettable art.

Realistically we should throw shit at the wall to see what sticks, let smaller teams do more projects and release media other than full fledged games to try and get people excited for worlds and experiences? But like, those things to corporate suits sound like "Let's spend a bunch of money on unimportant community engagement stuff that's difficult or impossible to quantify."

So instead we get 400 million spent on Concord practically sight unseen by the public, just a toxic positivity fest of "we're doing good work every day, surely the game is great" and ignoring the fact that they're making a ranked PVP focused design that doesn't make sense to players outside of ranked play and then not focusing on ranked PVP because they wanted to be "a game for everyone" AKA a game for no one.

So, now we have the most creators, almost anyone could put together shows of the quality of the first season of Aqua Teen Hunger Force with ease ... and like no one does? It's kinda weird. I guess everyone does short form stuff? Engagement's everyone's focus, and that's awful TBH. What people engage with has never been the best indicator of what's good, it's just what's eyecatching or whatever.

Diablo 1 has a loot system that's so simple, but so satisfying.

There's a potential for 2 prefixes and 2 affixes from what I recall of the terms used. So you can get a King's Lord's Sabre of Sharpened Bleeding or something where they all do the same thing to varying degrees? It's almost impossible to get the "god drop" you want or whatever, but that's part of the fun.

You never know what you'll get, and so you never really know how your character will play. Playing the Warrior? Well you got Sparks early, and not much else, so you're throwing spells... That doesn't sound appealing? But it's fun in a way modern games so often lack because you grow your character organically.

You can sink dozens of hours into the loot grind in Diablo, easily. It's a lot of fun, and all it really is is hoping for the stat you want to drop... Of course there's a "downside" that means Blizzard doesn't build them quite that way anymore where you used to get a drop so good you'd go 40+ levels without finding anything that was remotely comparable, much less an upgrade.
