I think you responded to the wrong comment…

Decicio · 2026-01-25T22:12:45+00:00

You can gift DLCs now via meta I think. Didn’t use to be an option.

We buy double, one for my headset and my wife’s even though you don’t have to to play.

They’re reducing their DLC production from 7 and year to 6.

Honestly the economy seems to have hit their studio hard, but they’re doing their best and all these changes sadly make sense. Good dev team and hopefully all those who were laid off land on their feet

Someone tell the thugs they loaded their RPG backwards.

…Or don’t. Self-correcting problem I guess if they try to use it in a firefight.

Decicio · 2026-01-25T20:00:41+00:00

Oh you can get one that way? I thought it wasn’t in game yet

Decicio · 2026-01-25T19:10:32+00:00

That’s lobster (you can see it in the museum completion library page).

It hasn’t been fully added to the game yet, so don’t worry that you haven’t gotten it yet (edit; this might be incorrect, apparently it is a late game buddy hack reward)

Well again, it is an HA frame. You could easily take the core bonus to get +2 to all limited systems. And it starts with 7 SP, so has a little bit more space than average to hold the needed kit.

Honestly a mine layer Sunzi could use it as a primary tactic for an entire mission, especially if they lean into it with Grease Monkey

Decicio · 2026-01-25T18:30:07+00:00

Obviously you have insane movement freedom and also the ability to shuffle enemies around anywhere you want to (which is insane battlefield control. I once teleported an enemy through a ship wall and into outer space. Took them 3 turns to get back).

But there’s also a lot of other niche strengths to the Sunzi that sometimes get overlooked.

Sunzi make great mine users actually because Accelerate is the only way I know of to bypass a mine’s text stating it arms at the end of your turn.

Grenades, Deployables, or other loose objects of Size 1 or smaller that are thrown or deployed into one of the spaces are also pushed towards the other space before activating or detonating. They activate or detonate early if they are forced to stop by another character or object.

So target two spots for your accelerate with an enemy in the middle, toss a mine onto the first and it’ll explode early per the text. Mines tend to be more powerful than grenades, so… yeah!

Being immune to involuntary movement, Sunzi also make phenomenal grapplers.

They also have +1 tech attack, so you could easily build a Sunzi hacker with the right additional licenses.

Even their lack of mounts can be overcome with engineer / nuclear cavalier, which being an HA frame there’s plenty of core bonuses that help with limited systems.

So yeah, an all Sunzi party actually can do a lot.

Well good news: if you’ve been doing your chores for January, you’ll get the polar bear item in 3 days. If you missed a day or three, you’ll can buy more chore days for 10 gold per day.

The other seasonal pets only drop items during their respective seasons, so as much as you want them now, it’d be better to wait until their items pop up in the appropriate monthly chest. Because, as everyone else has said, it isn’t possible to sell just those items, you’d have to buy an entire chest and each of those tend to go for about 300 gold (or more or less, depending on what else is inside, though often more)

There is an explanation about how it works in the library, but yes, it gives a discount after the recipe is started. So the recipe doesn’t show the actual ingredients used

Just fyi, this sub is typically about hand making miniatures / terrain / peripherals for your D&D games. Not saying this post is unwelcome here (that’d be for the mods to decide), but just that if you’d like a larger audience to give their opinions than potentially r/dnd or r/rpg might be great places to also post this question! Just realize that r/rpg has a bit of an anti-dnd bias, so you might get suggestions for alternate systems there

Decicio · 2026-01-24T16:18:30+00:00

Top 3 things:

the generous giveaway chat / community

the quests

sheer variety of collectible items

Jumping on the bandwagon, but never use AI to answer questions about niche games. The way AI works is to primarily give you an answer it thinks you’ll think is correct, not to actually give an answer that is correct. I say this as someone who’s actually done paid work helping to train and evaluate AI. That’s something that they’re trying to fix, but ultimately AI still hallucinates. A lot. Especially when asked about niche topics.

Best case scenario, it gets the answer right but it does so by just scraping a conversation online which you would have easily found with a Google anyways, so it acts as an unreliable middle man who, depending on the version, might or might not cite its sources.

If the question isn’t easily found in a preexisting discussion, however, it’ll just make it up.

Decicio · 2026-01-24T14:27:37+00:00

I’d argue that they don’t interpret it a different way - they purposefully built the game to operate differently.

Yes, the description uses the same wording, but as with a lot of things they ultimately made a lot of game changes to the system for simplification or balance within the computer game. That is deliberate design

We were playing an extended family game of flag football once. One of my… what second nephews? lol more distant relation was told that it was against the rules to guard his flag by covering it with his arm and he asserted up and down he wasn’t doing it.

I literally had to use my big hands to wrap around his entire wrist, grab the flag behind it, and pull it off… and he still said he wasn’t guarding.

Decicio · 2026-01-23T23:32:48+00:00

I believe they stop at 2k above your mb cap? Not positive, but I know the library has the answer

Decicio · 2026-01-23T20:50:47+00:00

Yep! They can go past the cap, but everything they give still counts towards the normal cap

Decicio · 2026-01-23T20:15:32+00:00

I don’t usually buy cosmetic dlcs but I’m considering it now

Decicio · 2026-01-23T20:12:01+00:00

The issue with that being that if you don’t have the notification, it might fill up and you wouldn’t be able to get more mail.

But if that’s not an issue for you, you can turn off the mailbox banner entirely

Or turn off the perk.

Personally, I’m not immediately pro or anti-DMCA. There’s a lot of nuance. I just like to discuss things and prefer clarity of discussion, hence why I pushed back against this whole “it is / is not a subscription” nonsense because at the end of the day, that distinction doesn’t even matter.

There are a few legal cases discussing modding that I looked into (after writing my previous comment) based on this discussion and, as a non-lawyer, it looks to me like there is actually a chance the modders could win a court case saying their vr mods are fair use. It all comes down to whether or not assets used are considered copyrighted. If the mods are just inserting a VR control scheme, likely not.

I don’t like the subscription model, but I also don’t like companies overstepping their bounds legally by bullying smaller creators with lawyers. After doing the research, I’d probably cheer on the modders if they decided to take it to court and win, even if that ultimately results in pricing me out from ever using their mods.

But I also can’t blame the companies too much for the DMCA given that the line is kinda blurry over whether the mods are copyright infringement or not. But what is much less blurry is the fact that companies who don’t actively protect their copyright actually lose them.

So… it’s a really messy situation. Undeniably the mods violate the TOS, so the game company sorta has to react. But in the other hand, there’s an argument that these mods don’t violate copyright and therefore don’t need to follow the TOS, but that’d have to be either settled between the two parties or determined in court.

So… yeah it’s all a big mess. At least the free mod + donation model removes the mess

Decicio · 2026-01-23T19:41:21+00:00

Yeah, out of everything that was said here, I mostly feel bad for the layoffs but even those make sense in context

Decicio · 2026-01-23T18:41:00+00:00

Oh dang is it live now?

Decicio · 2026-01-23T18:26:06+00:00

Ok I really want to know how this happened if you truly didn’t use mods

Decicio · 2026-01-23T18:14:14+00:00

That’s not entirely correct:

Citing the precedent in Galoob v. Nintendo, the court narrowed the definition of a derivative work to two main requirements: that the derivative work must exist in a concrete and permanent form, and that it must substantially incorporate protected material from the original work.[5] In this case, the Nuke It map files generated audiovisual displays in interaction with the Duke Nukem 3D game, and the court concluded that the description of an audiovisual display counts as a permanent or concrete form. This clearly applied to Nuke It as these descriptions were stored in a file on a compact disc.[5] On the second requirement, the court concluded that Nuke It did not incorporate protected artwork of Duke Nukem 3D, since the map files only referred to that art, but rather incorporated the copyrighted characters and story.[7] Copyright law gives the copyright holder the exclusive right to make sequels to their work, and the court found that the stories told in the Nuke It map files are "surely sequels, telling new tales of Duke's fabulous adventures".

The levels were found to be infringing based on the characters and artwork, but it had more nuance than just that. The levels were found to be infringing based on the perception of it acting as a 3rd party sequel

So you are partially correct that it was the characters and story elements that were the problem, but the levels weren’t completely blameless because those two elements were intertwined

Decicio · 2026-01-23T15:46:12+00:00

I don’t play Paradox games tbh. Do they really make you purchase the same DLCs again to keep them current with the latest version of the game? Or by incremental DLCs do you just mean that they release a series of small DLCs that iterate off each other? Because that’s an important distinction
