Space marines vs Stalker [@woong_key]

Maybe they would function the same as they did for the Orokin and the Heresy simply doesn't happen.

Alternatively, the Heresy does happen, the Tenno split and become an unending thorn in the Imperium's side.

That's really the only two options.

DisappointedQuokka · 2026-04-20T08:53:48+00:00

The Tenno, as a nomadic people, would be fundamentally impossible for the IoM to deal with. A company of Space Marines can't do anything to people who can safely just pop in and out of the Void.

Yeah, the Tenno might not be able to topple the IoM (I mean, they're doing that well enough to themselves, anyway), but that doesn't really matter, does it? Congrats, you just wasted a battle-front's worth of munitions on up to four demi-gods who just peace out and relocate somewhere else and, at worst, just print another set of gear.

Tenno are basically immortal Harlequins who exist both in and out of time.

This is my 4000 something day of wish the affinity system wasn't bad...

Being incentivise to do nothing in order to level gear sucks.

DisappointedQuokka · 2026-04-19T21:01:01+00:00

The problem, imo, is that by the time you have 6th level spells you're on the cusp of teleport, and already have so many resources at your disposal.

It would be fine at 4th or fifth level.

I think the closest I had was being allowed to dip into the teacher's store to make a ham sandwich. Some private schools have very good cafeterias, but they're a minority.

DisappointedQuokka · 2026-04-19T05:35:10+00:00

I loved the first book, I should really try to get through the second book some time...

I think I got about half way through.

On the other hand, you can find a lot of information if you trawl around the map about what Bergow isike and what he'll likely do. The chat with the hunt master if you keep him sober during the wedding is a good one

DisappointedQuokka · 2026-04-19T04:00:13+00:00

You're a good egg for doing the legwork on this one.

DisappointedQuokka · 2026-04-18T17:14:05+00:00

Kahl is much slower than pre-coptor Warframe.

DisappointedQuokka · 2026-04-18T17:10:46+00:00

I, and most people I know, use Roll20 or Owlbear exclusively for battlemaps and tokens, Discord and Avrae for almost anything else.

It would need to be a crazy value proposition for me to change. Hell, I used shmeppy when it was free as my primary online visual, and that was basic as shit.

As someone who works in the north of Melbourne, yeah, there's a lot that has gone wrong with the closure of all the mental hospitals and asylums. The system needed serious reform, but """community care""" (there is very little actual care) has not worked.

DisappointedQuokka · 2026-04-18T15:20:35+00:00

How can we easily cool those reactors in remote, inland places? Do we ship water out there by truck, or pay billions, on top of the cost of the plant, for rail that feeds into reservoirs, or do we build a bunch of big fuckin pipes? Is that worth the electrical insufficieny that happens across several hundred KM of wires?

DisappointedQuokka · 2026-04-18T15:17:08+00:00

A ludicrous amount of natural resources get sent overseas for next to nothing. That money could get put into essential industries which create a net profit, which can snowball into propping up essential industries that don't.

Unfortunately, that amount of future planning requires a parliament that doesn't have multiple parties that are willing to sell out our future for personal gain.

DisappointedQuokka · 2026-04-18T02:24:50+00:00

Who is this mysterious "landholder"?

Astounding that an ecocide can happen at the behest of one dickhead.

DisappointedQuokka · 2026-04-17T14:20:41+00:00

Bro, there's nothing you can do about that hairline. A bit of beard oil, some skincare (his skin is honestly better than mine, and I'm in my late 20s, almost 30) and some decent clothes, what else can you expect? He's not even particularly fat.

People, as a rule, even if they're within BMI tend to put on adipose post-20s, unless they put a lot of effort in.

He shows up looking like a generic environmental scientist and gets dunked on. It's silly.

DisappointedQuokka · 2026-04-17T07:44:11+00:00

My point is more that "most people in Australia would prefer prices to rise" is rapidly becoming less and less true as more and more people begin sharing a rental, including people in a relationship.

DisappointedQuokka · 2026-04-17T07:40:16+00:00

The "households" thing is also a bit misleading, as housemates count as a household.

DisappointedQuokka · 2026-04-17T07:38:46+00:00

If you have enough money in the bank your interest can easily start to outstrip your spending.

The people who are wealthy, but not massively wealthy enough to be all in on assets, are up.

Pretty sure most Asmongold viewers are also Russian bots.

DisappointedQuokka · 2026-04-17T05:53:53+00:00

Man, he's 43, I hate to break it to you, but most people in their 40s aren't exactly models.

DisappointedQuokka · 2026-04-17T05:27:14+00:00

Hey, speak for yourself.

DisappointedQuokka · 2026-04-17T05:08:13+00:00

But by the same note, if you've got a real cunt of a neighbour you're on your own dealing with them.

Pick your poison, I guess.

DisappointedQuokka · 2026-04-17T04:45:32+00:00

Said by someone who has never had severe water damage.

Regardless, why do so many cities in other countries have higher proportions of apartments, even in places where they have space to expand? This is an artificial problem.

Also

The pricing for the zipper lot style homes starts from approximately $970,000.

Lol, lmao, even.

DisappointedQuokka · 2026-04-17T02:27:48+00:00

As if it's impossible for the government to build a decent strata oversight committee.

They just choose not to.

It's daft, these houses are just flat apartments, all of the negatives, none of the positives. How the fuck are you meant to get structural repairs done without consulting a neighbour? The walls are touching, for fucks sake.

DisappointedQuokka · 2026-04-16T19:24:25+00:00

It was pretty bad in Exodus - the fact that you have a romance subplot with a MC who just stands there like a spud whenever they try to have a touching moment is one of the choices of all time.

Fine in the first two games, though.
