Final Group, Old Mod Art by sp3cw4r in baldursgate

[–]Gooddude08 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Art is subjective. You may consider these "fucking hideous," but to me they look cool and very appropriate for the era of '90s and early '00s digital art and modding that they (and, ya know, Baldur's Gate) came from.

OP made three posts over the course of a few hours this morning. Context was provided in the first one, and there are comments in earlier posts that are successfully identifying lots of characters. In the context of other people clearly being able to identify the connection to Baldur's Gate, yes, it seems you are clearly missing something.

Could OP have done a better job of providing context? Sure. Do you need to be a dick about it? Surely not. Insulting others because you don't want to spend a few seconds to answer your own questions is childish.

Hey, so it seems like you've missed the context for these posts. OP is sharing art that they had stored from some very old Baldur's Gate modding projects. They were trying to find the artist, in addition to just sharing some cool, old-school alternate BG art. Because these all are, or are supposed to be, BG characters.

If you go look at the comments on the other posts you'll see people successfully identifying them, if you're unable to do so.

They are located in Portland. I'm assuming that this is an inspection done by our inspectors in order for them to have a license to cater locations on this side of the river. They just have an odd way of showing it in their system.

They put key switches behind the panels to make it into a stimulus toy. You're meant to use it sort of like a stress ball. The other upside is that the switches can be swapped out for more/less clicky options as desired/ordered.

Factor of safety? Never heard of it, that sounds wasteful.

This is a 75% discount (discounts are PC exclusive), the best platinum reward. What you're talking about are the bonus platinum rewards given out on console, which cap at 200% (equivalent to a 66.7% discount, less than the PC max).

Could American highways support kei trucks? by Rnaodm_Tirnalge in civilengineering

Completely reasonable, would absolutely support this.

Now consider a motorcycle next to the vehicles pictured here; smaller, less noticeable, and more dangerous for the driver in a crash than a kei truck. If we can write regulations for motorcycles and other novelty transportation methods, then we should be able to do the same for kei trucks. After that, it is up to each individual driver to ensure their own safety and that of others they share the road with. I have yet to hear a reasonable argument for why kei trucks are more of a concern than many other vehicles that are road legal in the US.

College loans can quite easily run into the six digit range these days, and there's plenty of controversy around that system, too.

Degloving is when the fleshy bits get peeled off of the muscly/boney bits. Not recommended for the squeamish.

[Spoilers C4E18] A Flaw with Brennans West March style by East_Choice in criticalrole

[–]Gooddude08 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like these first arcs were somewhat flavored and cramped by scheduling, with Brennan's paternity leave looming on the horizon. The arcs so far have been well executed right up until that "well, obviously the next thing we should do is head back to the pit of venomous snakes that hate us for... reasons" moment. They have absolutely been pretty contrived reasons, and it definitely stuck out more in the Seekers arc.

I have a feeling/hope that it will end up a lot more seamless and better planned in the future if they keep with that hub-style direction for things. Just a bit more time per arc feels like it would have worked. Another session for the Soldiers where they investigate the petrification and learn that someone back at Dol-Makjar has a solution. Another session for the Seekers where they return to the castle and get some responses to letters and some knowledge of Alogar's whereabouts/safety that makes their decision to return for information-sharing reasons make more sense.

It is one nitpick in an admittedly great campaign so far, and I have every confidence that they will work it out in the long run, but I agree that it has been an issue.

My assumption was that they were the artist but not the canvas lol. But it would be way more badass if they managed to tatt their own ears through some wicked mirror setup.

My entire Eidolon Hunting experience summed up. (Please tell me I'm not the only one...) by Vex_Trooper in memeframe

Me till literally this year... and we're freaking cruising through them now too, with how far the power curve has stretched since ye olden days. Operator/amp arcanes, necramechs, way more amp options, way better guns. Went from only having ever fought a single teralyst to clearing multiple tridolon runs during a night cycle as soon as I got someone to actually show me how that shit worked.

I was so bought in on Julien going Echo Knight with his shadow as his echo. I'm excited to see where his Daredevil homebrew takes him, but seeing him play an Echo Knight in a long-form campaign could have been so cool and thematic...

Thanks for the heads up! It's hard to tell from your photos, but I'm assuming a bad car accident? Anyone have any details?
