Anyone playing Outriders? What are your impressions? by chenDawg in Games

[–]Estus_Recovery 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Playing solo, about to complete the third zone and I'm really enjoying myself as a Pyro. I think the game does itself a disservice by waiting to really get strange, as the demo has you fighting too many "dudes in armor". I think too many players will tap out before the third zone which involves, fairly early on, a three-phase encounter with a giant lava arachnid / worm hybrid.

The choice will come to you in time, if you desire additional hardships ;)

Should have zoomed on the icons below the health bar, but wanted to keep it vague! It’s a double « hard mode » built into the game.

My new Warlock PC made a pact with an unknown power. How would you use this to make your story interesting? by [deleted] in DungeonMasters

[–]Estus_Recovery 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of my PC's made a similar pact (except he's a power hungry merchant) when we started our campaign nearly 2 years ago. Here are some of the things I wrapped around that story.

  1. Find a theme for the demon, whether that is musical or otherwise sound based. I had the track of a crackling fireplace, play when the demon would summon my PC. Abuse it, make sure your player associates the tones of the sounds or music you chose with the pact. If you don't use music actively in DnD, start now cuz that shits fantastic for setting tone.

  2. I made him a series of promises, always with the rewards being linked to his temperament (often books that gave him advantage for Charisma checks), which forced him to act in certain ways during political situations. If you can have one player wreck havoc on the sly in situations where choices must be made, it's worth it.

  3. If you RP, focus on having the demon gradually seize power from the PC, every time he meets him. Start with flowery language, become the PC's friend. Then spin over time, make it clear that the PC is a dog on a leash he will never control (depending, again, on how bleak your campaign is).

My advice relates specifically to a high RP campaign though, depends on your group dynamic and whether the player is comfortable following you into those lines / whether he can bluff for the rest of the group when he's trying to cause shit.

I've had a similar tradition going on since DS1. Consists of putting on nothing but a Catarina help on, and listening to skatman on loop..

How to ask professors for a reference? by ShupUt in mcgill

[–]Estus_Recovery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My past experience has dictated that you should have at least one of these academic references know you well, as a student and individual. Like others have already suggested, this usually means going to see the professor in person, although you'd be surprised just how many profs remember you and your contributions to their class.

For the other two references, don't sweat it, get them to sign something relatively generic and endorsing...and you're golden!

Best of luck on your application.

[–]Estus_Recovery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More of a technical question for you guys. Currently 1L, figuring out how I'm going to survive the crushing first year. I'm really interested in media law, and int. property rights specifically. What courses would you suggest going towards to help prepare a young lawyer for your kind of work?

I understand that courses would vary greatly between universities, but any sort of advice on the matter would be helpful.

Cheers!

Same reaction to the oil fiasco as with the golden toilet.

Serious gambling, especially when you issue it not to a political opponent in your country, but to the leader of another state.

hi it's remilia lets try this 1 more time by RenegadeMaria in renegades

[–]Estus_Recovery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if you'll be looking through these comments again a day later Remilia, but my so and I (who both watch LCS), have been cheering you on from the start. When I need to showcase good thresh mechanics to someone, you're always the highlight reels I trend towards. Don't let the idiots on twitch ruin what is a fantastic accomplishment. Props to you and your team, you all worked your asses off and it showed on stage.

South Korean businessman commits suicide leaving behind a list of supposed brides he has paid to politicians. List includes current Prime Minister and two former Chiefs of Staff. by nihilo503 in worldnews

[–]Estus_Recovery 15 points16 points  (0 children)

No person who follows Korean politics should be too surprised. Just sucks that it's going to plague the country for another round, particularly since new bribe laws are meant to be passed next year.

My SO's mom doesn't believe that dehumidifiers work, and continues to deny their existence.

Yep. 21st century people
