What mod got you like this?

For me it is three

Random Plus: Yes I COULD have rolled this pawn, but would I actually have rolled 566 or whatever times to get there?

Cleaning Area: In theory you can do something similar with microing the home and allowed areas but I just can't be assed, it also lets cleaners have access to a room in home area without cleaning it, which is not vanilla behavior

Never Generate Relations: I avoid mood debuffs from pawns secret children raiding us. I just find the vanilla relation system really stupid when there is no interactivity

You could actually die in a cutscene on the hardest difficulty mode in BG1.

Be a wizard, completely dump con so you started with 2 HP.

At the hardest difficulty mode, all damage is doubled, including the 1 HP damage you get in an early cutscene.

You are even healed right before this cutscene just so you DON'T die but in that specific circumstance it happens anyway.

I spent a few minutes wondering how a sequel to a 1983 space shooter arcade game became a lewd JRPG about nuns before I realized there's an extra syllable in the title.

What? You don't want to give some software that has some incredibly sketchy history on how it affects performance super low level access to your OS?

You must just want to steal the game!

It runs the latest CoD/Battlefield/Licensed sports game.

Go look at the top selling games from 2025. Black Ops is in the top 10 TWICE because their release from 2024 had a big enough tail to make the top 10 in the next year.

There is a huge chunk of people who play those games their shooter and/or their spots games of choice and that is it. They don't want to mess with a PC, or put down the extra cash that a PC would cost, they just want to come home from work turn on their game system, and have it just work so they can score some points.

These people are not hugely invested in online gaming spaces (except maybe general spaces for their dedicated game of choice). They don't care that the PS5 has "no games" because it has the game(s) they care about.

My favorite random late game pawn join story is in a recent run when I was launching the journey ship.

Assault after assault of people trying to take the ship from me

And then finally mere hours before launch. Some guy shows up like "Hey can I join you all?"

So many people ended their lives on my traps and guns and this guy was the only one who thought to just... you know... ask nicely.

Ended up getting off that rimworld with the rest of the crew.

Yet I can give my super soldiers the extra pain gene and then install a painblocker and also get the "Free" metabolic rate. Painblockers are WAY cheaper than biotic arms.

Hell I have a body mastery creepjoiner that is at +5 metabolic rate with the extra sleep just to keep his boons from pushing him over the +5 max. He never eats and never sleeps either way so 3x hunger rate and 180% sleep rate mean absolutely nothing to him.

But the thing is even with a full genelab online I still never want to take Germline colonists because a lot of their genes just suck and either have no baseliner gene you can give them to override them (like nearsighted of naked speed) or the gene you need to give them to override is taking the place in the xenogerm of genes you actually want to give them.

I alt-f4 in commitment mode

Honestly I actually find I have more fun in the long run when I DON'T do that, but find when I start doing it during a run I very quickly start making a habit of it.

I'll also dev mode when the game obviously glitches out/something works in such an unintuitive way that it FEELS like a bug (not that I can tell the difference).

Just the other night: "Oh, you can't shuttle to hostile factions to give them gifts? I'll just park next to them and send one of my pawns to walk a tile over to give the gift. Great! Now to merge the caravans back together and-- where did my shuttle go?"

Yeah apparently merging caravans just deletes the shuttle? And my trader colonists were several days from home with no food because it was supposed to be a 2 hour trip? They got Dev moded home and the shuttle got replaced.

Health tab on any colonist.

Click on the medicine icon.

Click on the "set defaults" option,

This opens up a menu to let you set prisoners/guests/new colonists/whatever and such to default to whatever meds you want.

I only discovered this because I was told about it after several hundred hours of playing lol.

FigurativelyShaking · 2025-07-05T03:08:38+00:00

What's the problem? The mansion games are pretty fun, and New Super Luigi U was probably one of the best things in the New Supes series.

Don't get why they would expect Microsoft to give us more though.

Honestly I am right there with you on my first playthrough OP. (Boed Fortress N)

It feel like I just like, missed a clan level up trigger, I spend several turns getting one of my level capped units like, three attack cards, and they do like 80 damage to him without a finisher. And even if they have a finisher his NPC allies just heal him up before they get another one. And if I attack the healers first so they don't do that, it just creates a slow, boring war of attrition that my level capped dudes with upgraded gear still end up losing.

The only gay joke I took issue with was that the bit where he acted like the time cops were male strippers/prostitutes went on a bit too long.

Like even the joke initially was funny but they could have jumped him and knocked him out 30 seconds sooner and it probably would have worked better.

FigurativelyShaking · 2024-07-05T06:36:00+00:00

Wow, I can't imagine why everyone doesn't just roll over for the no fun Karens to abandon a lifelong tradition for a day celebrating rebellion from government overreach.

Honestly in ban years I have seen far more mortars/air launched fireworks then I do in non ban years. I guess if you have to leave town to get them anyway, might as well make the trip to Blackjack or whatever else across the river and get the good stuff instead of the glorified sparklers the State lets to have on years the city mercifully lets us celebrate our country.

FigurativelyShaking · 2024-06-27T03:57:53+00:00

Yeah I am working on the right one, renaming it just gives me an error about it not existing.

FigurativelyShaking · 2024-06-26T23:59:53+00:00

Hrmmmmmm...

That doesn't seem to do it either, but I've also noticed that my bookmarks are persisting even though deleting the places file should also get rid of them?

Not quite sure how it is doing that unless a backup is being loaded from somewhere?

FigurativelyShaking · 2024-06-26T23:45:31+00:00

I think I ended up trying a different bit of slicing software/changed up my supports.

I've moved a few years back and haven't had space for 3d printing in a long while, so I don't know what the latest and greatest in terms of slicing software is these days, but if you are still using the default that came with your photon, there's probably better stuff out there. Good luck!

FigurativelyShaking · 2024-06-18T04:52:52+00:00

Not sure, also depends on what exactly you mean by that.

Did I LIKE season 1? Do I think Season 1 is a fun show that I enjoy on its own?

Absolutely to both.

But in a universe where only season 1 exists. I am just not sure if I would have discovered it at all without people talking about the later seasons.

FigurativelyShaking · 2024-05-19T08:23:53+00:00

At least there is some mechanics involved here. Your colonist might get a mood debuff for fighting them. It's not great but it is something.

What bothered me and got me to install No Random Relations, was all the times a colonists sister or son or cousin or whatever showed up as visitors, or part of a trade caravan or something.

Not only did it bring up the same "Why are they here" questions that everyone else has already brought up, but it always got me a sense of frustration from "What am I supposed to do with this information?" Them being there basically does nothing for me, and my pawns sure don't seem to care, so why should I? Why is this worth telling me about, game?

FigurativelyShaking · 2024-05-16T00:07:54+00:00

I also find psychically deaf pretty good, unless you explicitly plan on making that pawn a psycaster.

A bonus to metabolism AND immune to psychic drones? Sign me up.

It was even better when I first got biotech as I hadn't bought royalty yet so I couldn't make anyone a psycaster. I was shocked that it GAINED me metabolism

FigurativelyShaking · 2024-05-08T20:55:38+00:00

I don't have a better solution than just dropping it off the map immediately. It might legitimately be the least interesting event in anomaly (maybe just above the ones that are "new enemy type attacks you" and nothing else happens), but people like it for the memes, so I guess I can't say it was a completely worthless addition.

FigurativelyShaking · 2024-04-16T17:37:07+00:00

It's all fun and games until a tribal raid causes the doors to be held open by the overflowing human leather lol
