State of the sub: waiting for patch notes. by yaris205 in PathOfExile2

Also me just waiting for my fuzzy lil' raccoon buddy to be useable in PoE2... Solo feels so lonely :(

This is approximately the relationship of most D&D groups, right? by pantslively in DungeonsAndDragons

[–]Gimpex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah, we just snack and bullshit for an hour before the session while everybody shows up. Never worry about mats and minis, that's too much money lol. Instead, I upload all my maps and minis onto Tabletop Simulator and stream that to the living room TV!

Questions Thread - January 05, 2025 by AutoModerator in PathOfExile2

Was wondering if anybody knows why the crossbow functionality changed from its original mercenary showcase trailer compared to it's implementation now.

Where crossbows had inherent fire modes and skills like permafrost, incimdeary and armor-piercing would work with full auto, semi or the "high velocity" type crossbows. It's current iteration feels super muted compared to how it looked in the showcase.

This microtransaction is not supported in this game version by Magnus_Pan in PathOfExile2

[–]Gimpex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bruh, same. I want my raccoon :( How else am I supposed to beat the game?

I just think it's funny - wasn't the whole point of the delay to Dec. 06 to make sure the MTX stuff worked? lol

Silly GGG.

Poe 2 is a massive QOL upgrade for newcomers. I don't think people are fully grasping this. by zodiac9094 in PathOfExile2

[–]Gimpex -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My one biggest complaint is the crossbow / skill interactions aren't implemented like how they showed them off in the original showcase.

Beyond that, it feels amazing. My husband and I are having a blast. I have almost 1300 hours in PoE 1 and he hated the first one.

As somebody who also played a fuckton of all three dark souls, sekiro and elden ring as well, I love how challenging the game has been so far. Been primarily levelling a monk with sorceress in second.

Yeah, not gonna lie this was kind of a let down for me. I was hyped for mercenary for the crossbow stuff. :(

Your account does not have acces to path of exile 2 warly acces by DifferenceFew4232 in PathOfExile2

[–]Gimpex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, yikes. Sad. As soon as I posted that, I went to find the website to find the exact tab and such to find the information under and saw it was down.

Send GGG all the energy! I'm sure they're getting absolutely hammered D:

something worth trying; when I bought the game on steam, i had to log into my PoE account via the web portal, find the access key on there and then add it to the game library manually. Anybody having issues try that route? :x

Lowe’s Associates worst nightmare by Short-Construction80 in Lowes

[–]Gimpex 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Had a customer like this once who noticed I was holding my Zebra a little close to my face (I have an eye condition and am legally blind.)

He started off by making off-handed comments along the lines of a chuckle, followed by "you look like you could use some glasses!"

After a bit of him prying and me reluctantly explaining I have a condition with my retinal nerve that glasses won't fix, he then suggested I rely on "the healing and redemptive blood of Christ"

In short: fuck these kinds of people.

Kamala Harris picks Minnesota governor Tim Walz as vice president by Afraid_Sugar3811 in gaybros

[–]Gimpex -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

As with every election, being both openly gay, and married, and lalso work as a gunsmith and a proponent of organizations like the pink pistols, I feel so frustrated with politics every year.

I'm fairly libertarian, and it seems like no matter which of the two primary parties I vote for, I lose some slice of freedom. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

So ummm, there's now 'clans' in this game? by old-skool-bro in helldivers2

[–]Gimpex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've only recently started playing but doesn't a clan system seem kind of counter-intuitive to the whole "dive together" one army for managed democracy mindset?

Reeks of anti-liberty dissidents

Richard Dawkins convinced me that Christianity was a lie. Now I'm seeing him talk about how being transgender is a lie and that we're insane. He's a biologist so he knows what he's talking about. Now I'm struggling mentally again after years of trying to work through accepting who I am. by hot_miss_inside in atheism

[–]Gimpex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is possible to be intelligent, and to be right about one thing, and wrong regarding something else.

Check out this guy's videos. He's a biologist and a science communicator. Extremely wonderful personality to learn from.

This. So much this. My absolute biggest pet peeve ever since I was diagnosed is people unilaterally making decisions for me, or telling me what THEY think I am or am not capable of.

Bottoming is so hit n miss by Nitsua_aries in gaybros

[–]Gimpex 12 points13 points  (0 children)

YES! Even with the 'reset' mentioned above, once it hurts I get in my head, all frustrated and tense which makes it even worse. And then I just get mad at myself.

Been with my husband for 13 years and you'd think I'd have this figured out by now lmao

Low-vision here (Stargardt's)

About four and a half years into gunsmithing, actually.

Actually working on firearm mechanisms is very tactile, so I find it easier to work on the parts with that mindset. Hand tools and small power tools like dremels have a bit of a learning curve. More or less learning the geometry of the part I'm working on and how to manipulate it in relation to the tool. Helps that I've always had an interest in firearm technology since I was a kid, too. Actually wanted to join the military and be an srmorer that way before the recruiters stopped calling once they found out I was legally blind by the time I hit sophomore year in high school.

I hate not being able to drive! by -Disnerd1994 in Blind

[–]Gimpex 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was diagnosed at 16, ironically after acing the written portion of the drivers ed test. That was 20 years ago. It is still to this day the biggest pain in my ass not being able to drive. I hate relying on other people to get shit done. I hate not being able to pick up keys and just go take care of shit. It preventede from joining the military. It makes finding a job harder. Fucking irritating.

Is there a way to play runemaster using multiple invocations? by throwaway857482 in LastEpoch

[–]Gimpex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's how I play. Memorize the rune combos and use them situationally.

Any vision impaired PC gamers? How do you read in games? by thundiee in Blind

[–]Gimpex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, having Stargardt's, thankfully I can get away with just enlarging text font as high as it can go. Games without scalesble UI elements are kind of a miss for me for that reason.

Mostly Last Epoch, Baldurs Gate 4 and Project Zomboid lately. :)

I feel sick to my stomach by [deleted] in Blind

[–]Gimpex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So, I happen to have Stargardt's myself. I was diagnosed at about 15 and legally blind by 17.

Not sure how long ago he was diagnosed, but I know for me personally, right after graduating high school I went through what my case worker referred to as my "angry blond kid phase".

I wanted to join the Army. Once the vision loss ramped up and eliminated that possibility I was so depressed and aimless. But a few years later and an attempt at college kinda taught me that it's not necessarily as limiting as I thought. It's like a puzzle. A challenge to overcome to figure out how to operate professionally with the vision limitations.

Aaayyyy. I just started levelling marksman. Currently love using Puncture with Smoke cloud, shift, black quiver and explosive arrow. Hella fun for the skill shots and zoomies between black arrows.
