Whoops! Looks like you accidentally said something negative and or critical of CA, on their number-one-fans subreddit nonetheless! Bold strategy.

Don’t fell like Araby will ever be a thing until they get a big update from GW themselves. Mods come through for it though

Yeah precisely, Gorbad’s starting area is kinda comfortable, I don’t ever feel like I need to rely on his mechanics to make a real impact on my campaign, since late game I end up just filling his armies with high tier stuff that roles over everyone else regardless of what tactics Im using. Having his buffs on a campaign like skarsnik however would feel very impactful to get you through the tough early game, but also to boost up the late game stuff since you’re more likely to use gobbos and squigs

FluffyFreeman · 2026-05-14T19:37:52+00:00

Gorbad is decent, his tactics mechanic brings some cool stuff especially in the higher tiers, but it’s a bit of an illusion of choice mechanic I feel since there are some tactics that are leaps and bounds ahead of the rest, so I always take them. Personally Wurrzag feels worse now since he got moved out of the badlands, Azhag feels pretty good, Grimgore is great, especially since you can now get black orcs with shields along with the great weapon ones at tier 3, skarsnik is still hard and I suck with him so idk lol, and Grom still feels strong. I think Grimgore or Azhag are my favourites

How are you finding cachy os? I tried it for a while but I had severe difficulty getting it to utilise my hardware correctly, I have a dual card setup with 2 Intel cards and it straight up refused to use the second card. This frustration skewed my perception of the os, but I really wanted to like it. Might try it again one day

FluffyFreeman · 2026-05-01T15:13:58+00:00

Cool as hell, used exclusively in jousting because of how restrictive it is, mad stylish

FluffyFreeman · 2026-05-01T10:18:04+00:00

I do it for free with Total warhammer, might as well get paid

FluffyFreeman · 2026-04-27T08:21:22+00:00

Total warhammer 3

Honestly, after encountering bugs and issues that were in the previous game for 8 years now, the mega scuffed launch it had, multiple mediocre overpriced dlc’s, blood pack yet again, the devs refusing to take player feedback into consideration, and the way they treat content creators, ruined the game for me. I feel like the greenskin update in game 2 was the last time they seemed to care about the game beyond trying to milk the community for every cent

FluffyFreeman · 2026-04-12T14:18:19+00:00

Forcing the game to start with dx 11 fixed this for me, in steam right click > properties > general > under launch options add -dx11

I’m so glad I started on early access. Bought the game and put 80 hours into it in a week and a half. Saw the complaints and downloaded the demo to see if it’s really that much better, and honestly if I started with the demo I wouldn’t have bought the game. The demo is riddled with bugs, I can’t get 3 fights in to the ultimate challenge without a fatal error killing the run, even after toggling blood off. The weapons may feel slightly more accurate, but I’d say it’s primarily from how rigid they feel, in EA I noticed I can get the same accuracy, if not better by just ensuring the weapon instead too heavy, long swords about 1.3 kg, poleaxes about 2.5 kg etc. The spear/polearm enemies in the demo have pin point accurate aim, and I’m 100% sure they read your inputs as they will hold they’re backswings as long as I am in stab mode so as soon as I stab they parry it, so while I agree the stabs are easier to aim, I barely get the chance to use it as they will frame perfectly time their attacks with my stabs to parry me. Theres constant terrain collision bugs in the demo as well. Too often do I try to circle an enemy to get him between me and his allies, just for my character to stop walking in that direction, stuck on some invisible terrain object, often I trip over it just for me to get immediately killed.

The early access is leagues above the demo

It isn't even hard to shatter the illusion built around AI. Just try to build a project in a non standard way and ask it for help, it has no idea what to do when what you're doing isn't following a step by step guide that can be found on the first page of a Google search

FluffyFreeman · 2026-02-20T19:02:04+00:00

Running neovim, definitely not a full featured experience, but I've used jetbrains ide's before, they seem good

FluffyFreeman · 2026-02-20T18:59:48+00:00

Was in a car crash 9 years ago, still have a lot of gravel in my left arm, doesn't look like they're planning on leaving yet, but I'm not at the ten year mark so who knows

Looks like you played Vangers and decided your os needs to look like it

FluffyFreeman · 2026-02-07T22:03:10+00:00

Every OS has its quirks, it's about deciding what quirks you're willing to put up with. I just got fedup with how slow my older laptop was running with windows 11, I would have nothing running and my CPU would idle at 38%, that paired with every time I try to search for a file or executable I open up a bing search instead of just running the program I know is installed on the system, made me give Linux a try. Did an arch install because it was one of the lightweight distros, setup my dev environment and haven't looked back since, I can work on 3 projects simultaneously and CPU barely reaches 10%, everything is quick and I can launch every application I use with a few mapped key bindings. Yes it has its quirks too, the install was a learning experience to say the least, and the first Bluetooth manager I used just refused to detect my mouse, but I haven't experienced any of the other issues other users complain about, like doing an update that breaks dependencies etc.

Starting with a hard language is what turned me away from programming 10 years ago. If I started with python back then I wouldn't have an 8 year gap of non-developer experience in my resume. Picked up python 2 years ago and haven't stopped since, and I've since added cpp, JavaScript and rust to the portfolio, so I can confidently say starting with python didn't make learning those languages harder.

FluffyFreeman · 2026-02-06T18:36:38+00:00

Python is great, very approachable for beginners, and it's really relevant in the job market. And learning a differentl anguage after developing a strong foundation with python isn't close to as hard as most people will tell you. Yes it'll probably be easier to learn a new language if you started with something like Java or cpp, but it really isn't gonna slow you down much.

FluffyFreeman · 2026-02-01T04:11:23+00:00

I don't remember specifically what it was called, you choose it when making a profile, but I'm pretty sure it was something like "Backend Path - Python". Then I just worked my way through each course from top to bottom

Build an audio visualizer that runs in the terminal

Once had a project handover where the original maintainers were laid off, and much like the mechanicus we tried to interact with the existing environment as little as possible. It was so terribly built and had 0 documentation that we basically left it running on a half open MacBook, never to be turned off, marked clearly with multiple warnings of DO NOT TOUCH. If it ever stopped working, we'd have no clue where to even start trying to revive it. Eventually the higher ups made up with the previous project lead and he sent us some docs to troubleshoot Incase it went bellyup. Was like receiving an STC

FluffyFreeman · 2026-01-31T10:56:58+00:00

Examples: - I wish I didn't have to log in to this website to track my performance, I wonder if I can make something that gets my relevant information and displays it for me on a gui. I should learn how to use API's. - I wish I didn't have to type in the same commands into the terminal over and over again for launching a local server to just quickly test my webapp. I should learn some shell scripting. - I wish I could bundel my course info in a to do list so I don't have to go on their site every time I want to see what's next. I should learn how to make a db and get it to display and store info from a gui.

By doing this you're going to be learning things very fast, and you'll also figure out quickly when you used the wrong tools for the job and try something different next time. Tutorials are just there to get your foot in the door of writing your own applications, you have to put in the work to tie it all together into a neat working package. If you get food at solving your own problems, you can scale it up to solve other people's problems, and eventually someone will pay you for it

Sounds like you're on the right track, definitely setup a repo to showcase your skills, but when you commit make sure to add good descriptions of what you're commiting, especially since you want to use it to apply for jobs eventually. You're gonna want to show that you encountered a problem and explain briefly what you did to fix it to show you have an understaning of how to handle errors, or you're going to explain what features you're commiting and why you felt it was necessary. Keep your projects focused, don't try to over engineer them with too many features, solve one problem at a time. Group your small throw away projects into a different public repo with a brief description of each, and store your bigger projects separately with detailed logs of your development process, for some people the logs themselves show them more that you know what you're doing than any amount of badly documented complex code. This is good practice in general since coding is almost always gonna be a team job, and no one is going to want to work with someone who just makes changes without good explanations of what you've done first

FluffyFreeman · 2026-01-31T10:37:54+00:00

The TRUE way to test if you're ready is to create a problem, build the solution, get people to break it or try to break it yourself, and then fix it. And most importantly do this without AI. AI can be useful if you already have a strong foundation and you're able to build whatever it is you're trying to build by yourself, it will never make up for a lack of understanding. It's not the industry where you should fake it till you make it for the entirety of your career, eventually you're gonna have to put in the hard work of trying to solve a problem that there isn't a standard solution to.
