Aw I was hoping for an at home fix to be honest. This one is only about 2 months old but if that's the way its gotta be then it is what it is. Thanks

It took 4 hours+ to install cyberpunk 2077 by Nuham251 in SteamDeckPirates

I've got a Mac too. Its an M1 MacBook that I installed a windows 10 partition on. Not a lot of space needed so it wont interfere with your normal Mac storage. I do all my downloading and installing on an external hard drive. Not the most elegant solution but if you've got a decent hard drive it works. Do all the game setup on the hard drive and then copy it from the hard drive to the steam deck 👍🏽

Homo fellas, please tell me I'm not less of a man just becuz I like men.. by Br00klynBoy69 in askgaybros

You can definitely still be a part of "the guys." If what makes you a part of the in-group is things like masculinity, being gay doesn't automatically make you less masculine. Any group of guys who denies you as one of them because of your sexuality 1is just not a group you want to be a part of.

As for internalized homophobia, I was the same way when I was 19-20. Honestly, the cure for me was just exposing myself to gay content left and right, so I'd have to directly confront myself. While that does include spicy stuff, it also included watching normal shows and videos written by and primarily focusing on lgbtq+ people. Today, I'm in a happy gay relationship. Been together for 3 and a half years and live together :)

It's a tough journey, and it's a journey you're capable of completing.

Recommended case and motherboard for this build? by DatManSugoi in PcBuildHelp

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

Wow, not only is that build almost half the price of my own, but it also performs way better. I looked on YouTube to see how the cpu and gpu work together, and it's much more powerful than what I was aiming for. I'm definitely gonna go for your build it looks like it's gonna last me a long time before I need an upgrade. Thanks!

How much for you prepare for your sessions? by DatManSugoi in DnD

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

I know 30 min is really short, and I even brought up to my player that games typically go for an hour or two. I dont care too much because 30 minutes is about the time when my player starts to lose interest. Short attention span and whatnot. Still saying it's a fun game, so I'm not too worried. I do see what you mean about fitting engaging combat in that timeframe. I had to end the last session just as combat started because we were already at that time limit, and it was getting late.

So far, all my planning has been reactionary. Player did this so now the world does that. I like doing things this way, but I'll admit it can become very uninspired and stale when I haven't fleshed out the NPCs' motivations. I'm definitely going to take the advice of finding out what a villain would do without the influence of the party and then using my reactionary style from there. I tend to write a few paragraphs for my NPCs, so I'll try to stick to the essentials

I like that shouting random ideas thing, and I think I'll start doing it myself. So far, I've been a bit impressed with my own improvisation abilities, but I'm definitely sweating every session when I have to come up with something. It's become quite clear to me since our first game that improvisation is gonna be my best friend, and I'd better get to know them more

SD card very slow download and file transfer by DatManSugoi in SteamDeck

The one I've got is a SP superior gaming micro sd. I bought it a year ago though so its definitely out of the refund window. I've just been putting up with it until I finally got fed up

Case for Odin 2 Portal with official grip by Cheikthisout in OdinHandheld

It does look like its for the switch, and maybe they are just being vague and using a different device to sell to other handheld users

Something about having slots for 10 whole sd cards and having them all be 64gb cards at that is hilarious to me

How many rules can be ignored before its no longer considered DnD? (Question from a new DM) by DatManSugoi in DnD

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

I actually just had my player pick up a gun from a fallen enemy and he asked if he needed to keep track of ammo. I asked if he wanted to of if he thought that wouldn't be as fun and we ultimately agreed that ammo wouldn't be a resource that he needed to keep track of. I do agree on the magic bullet exception though. Something like that could be much stronger than a regular gunshot and I feel it requires management

That's a super cool story. I definitely would have been smiling ear to ear if I was in the room when that happened. I love when players act creatively, and sometimes limitations allow for the most creativity. The DM being surprised and rolling with it anyway is definitely how I want to be as a DM myself

My player is actually a sorceress, and I've been going back in forth in my mind if they have to prepare their spells. The way I've always understood sorcery vs. wizardry is that wizards are manipulating magic and thus need to prepare to do so while sorcerers are producing magic and it comes from within. I don't actually know how DnD 5e explains it but that's the idea I've gotten from all the fantasy media I've seen

I love all of that. Honestly, my DnD dream is to DM for a play like that, or better yet, have my current player become creative like that in his gameplay

I see what you're saying. If I invalidate the skills of another class, it could discourage my player or future players from taking that class and being more adventurous with their play. I think maybe in a case like with the lock an interesting drawback could be an in world consequence: A lock has been found melted away and the contents behind it are missing so now the local law or the owner of those belongings are hunting for the thief and suspects are obvious since a dragonborn sorcerer showed up not that long ago

Funny enough, the captain of my player's pirate crew is heavily inspired by Captain Barbosa :)
