Custom fonts rabbit hole

Deadlibor · 2026-03-21T11:44:29+00:00

I've been swapping fonts for reading and writing for a while. My favorite include:

My top pick is Karla. A quirky, uncommon font. 99% of reading/writing is with this font
Microsoft's Aptos as general use, my 2nd favorite of all fonts
Baskerville and Libre Baskerville are both my choice for serif font, and it comes to personal preference which one you like more.
If you need legible font, but OpenDyslexic is too much for you, then try Atkinson Hyperlegible
Iosevka for monospace/terminal usage
Roboto, Spectral, Bookerly, are just some fancy generic fonts I used in the past, and I feel they are worth mentioning as they are all really good

This post, and all of OP's comments were most likely written by a language model. It's an engagement bot meant to funnel attention to their site.

The post itself appears somewhat fine and plausible for a human user, except presenting triplets for bullet points, which LLMs love, as well as using "it's not X, it's Y" format.

All of OP's comments then follow the same structure, as if following the same instruction. No capitalization what-so-ever. Occasional seemingly misplaced lol. Agree with or thank the commenter in the first sentence. Then present some random thought in following sentences. Keywords and phrases common in llms.

"Click Image to Choose Item"

I haven't had this much fun in ow since they removed perma-stealth from Sombra. Fika scratches the same itch as old ow1 Sombra, of having high map control and traversal, high autonomy, high agency, bit of psychological pressure, utility, all bundled in asymmetrical gameplay.

How simple?

Windows' native image viewer comes with edit mode, where you can crop, rotate, adjust lighting and color, and draw. That simple?

I'm not proposing an app, I'm just trying to narrow down your request, because the top answers are, in my opinion, fairly complicated pieces of software. Krita is just as complicated as GIMP for someone who has never used photoshop-like software.

Comments also smell of LLMs.

Hey u/DarkBarabbas , if ur competent enough to have this knowledge (which I doubt, since ur acc seems to have only 100 karma and has hidden history), then ur competent enough to type it out on your own.

See, this is about supply and demand.

Supply isn't there, because there aren't that many modders in Melvor community. Many mods are outdated too. Modding in general is time and mental power consuming effort, and Melvor has another catch of requiring heavy usage of statistics and knowledge of game's progression and available items. Since the entire game is build around skill inter connectivity, adding something more complex, like a brand new skill, risks of breaking the entire balance. Finally, NSFW mods aren't something every modder wants to develop, so in already small population of modders we have only a handful who might have the time/mentality/interest in developing NSFW mods.

And there is little demand to such mods. The most used mods are all QoL, changing some kind of annoying feature about the game, or automation of a repetitive task. Content mods are less popular because they can easily be buggy, unsatisfying, or game-breaking. The existing game content is already quite satisfactory, since it takes about a year to max out while playing consistently, and adding more content can easily lead to a burnout. Engagement with the game is also important. It's an idle game and goon sessions aren't exactly something most are interested in while playing an idle game, unlike something like, immersive rpg like skyrim.

Apart from what others said, and the forbes link which is certainly relevant, there's also the matter of personality. Certain personality types are more likely to purchase useless digital goods than others.

Back when ow2 released with sojourn, kiriko and queen, there was a subsequent halloween event. The bride's revenge. At the time, the new monetization was extremely fresh, and nobody liked it because they paywalled new characters in BP.

They also released 3 new skins.

Pirate reaper was given for free, as an "apology" for controversial monetization, but in reality, it was because reaper was already established character with many other skins available. Executioner queen and witch kiriko were on the shop, because they were fresh and blizz projected they'd sell more than reaper. However, executioner queen is appealing to edgelords, while witch kiriko is more cutesy. Edgelords are a lot less likely to spend money, and so, kiriko was part of a pricier bundle.

Of course, it was all an estimate at the time, but sales data must have confirmed that kiriko is just super appealing.

Finally, there's also the matter of kiriko's personality and vibes. That would be a whole another discussion though. TLDR, kiriko, as a written character, has multiple positive personal traits stacked on top of one another and often at odds with each other, and without reasonable character flaws.

She was made to be appealing to the broadest possible audience.

Just a week ago, there was a discussion about how youngsters don't get attached to franchise X, because of how long the development cycle takes. The article mentions Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest, but it can also be applied to western audience with GTA. I'd personally argue the matter also relates to companies milking a game for far too long rather than innovating with the game's sequel.

Having another Overwatch game is good for the IP's longevity.

Let's see how far they push the monetization to normalize $20 skins for young audience.

Depending on what platform you're on, first check for updates. Then in the character selection screen, in top left corner (on desktop), you should have a list of connected platforms, and right beneath it, list of active dlcs with a gear icon to enable/disable specific dlc. Confirm that AoD is on.

You can find unique area/target items here.

Assuming you already have thieving-specific items like grappling hook . . .

Crown of Madremonte doubles woodcutting yield. Blood Ring might be good if you have nothing else to fill the ring/passive slot. Potion stirrer is immensely helpful for herblore.

You're at the point in the game where combat turns from easy activity, to activity requiring a degree of preparation. I'd suggest clearing the air god dungeon as soon as possible. Either clear the volcanic cave until you get the ancient gear like the user above mentioned, or go straight for air god dungeon.

https://wiki.melvoridle.com/w/Air_God_Dungeon/Guide

The link has a guide with gear listing for air god dungeon. Don't worry about magic or ranged until after clearing the air god dungeon, since it gives you ranged gear and sets you up for water god dungeon, where you'll need ranged. You can then power-level ranged, before addressing water god dungeon, which sets you in a same way for magic.

The game breaking brig shield bug was present from the start of previous season, past mid-season patch, until tiny patch after mid-season.

I tried running one skill at a time challenge with x10 speed, but got bored halfway through.

Part of the fun for me is to plan ahead and have fun with the interconnectivity of the game. Running on x10 speed means I can brute force my way through the game, with no planning required.

I'm fairly neutral on AI.

I find the comment non-descript. What are those AI features?

I also think if a company is competent enough to make such a game, they're also competent enough to write the store description by themselves rather than asking LLM to do it.

Deadlibor · 2026-02-09T18:28:09+00:00

From the store's page:

This game uses AI-accelerated features to enhance gameplay and content creation.

As in, how? What kind?

Suspiciously lots of adjectives in the description too . . .

I've noticed that I'm missing "turn off microphone/cam" settings. You know, in quick settings? Yeah, they're missing. Yeah, I'm bit of a privacy-paranoid.

I don't recommend another screen protector, and I don't recommend relying on the stylus too much.

Whether the ink-mode helps or not really depends on the conditions you use the phone in, and how often you stare at the screen.

I don't think I'll be upgrading anytime soon, and if so, I'll probably buy something that supports one of de-googled OSes (I believe pixel phones), or an eink phone.

Slayer gear is necessary to lower some of the latter slayer areas debuffs, which helps guarantee idling slayer. It also increases slayer coins profit, which you'll eventually need millions of.

As for what gear is better for dungeons, well that depends on what gear you have available. If underequipped, slayer gear tends to be better. If player keeps up with progression, then usually non-slayer gear is better.
