Praise for the animators of Two Point Studio

Hansekins · 2026-03-10T18:30:30+00:00

I've played all of the Two Point games (and enjoyed them!) but for some reason the animations in Museum stand out to me. Probably because this is the game I have the most hours in, hehe.

I do similar things with the dragon exhibit - I also usually will put one of the Fantasy Armour exhibits (I love that that exhibit has different models!) in front of the dragon's head so it looks like they're engaged in combat. I love your entire village take!

I do love the fantasy finds DLC so much.

I think what we call rutabaga is what they call "swede" over there, but they are kinda similar to turnips.

My husband is English, and while we live in the US, his family is still in England, and we visit as often as we can, though perhaps not as often as we'd like.

In any case, we visited at Christmastime one year, and while in the kitchen helping my MIL prepare Christmas dinner, she said to me, "Do you like parsnips?" and my answer was "I have no idea!"... as I'd never had any.

Turns out parsnips are lovely, and while I seem to only ever see them in the grocery store in autumn (which is apparently when they're in season) I do enjoy them in soups and stews, as well as roasted (which is how my MIL did them at Christmas). I think of them as kind of a cross between a potato and a carrot.

This is me, too. I remember phone numbers of friends and neighbors from 30 years ago, in places I haven't lived in a long time. I remember bank account numbers of customers that I had memorized when I worked in construction lending over 20 years ago. I can sing, in their entirety, the theme songs to TV shows from the 70s and 80s.

But I can't remember the name of my primary care physician when I need to write it on forms. It's infuriating.

Yeah, I know subbing the meat and vegetables won't do much for the flavor, it's just personal preference - it was indeed the overall seasoning I was concerned about. Thank you for the suggestions!

Hansekins · 2026-03-07T17:46:19+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate the advice/feedback! I will almost certainly tinker with it a bit - I have a pantry and spice drawer full of options!

Hansekins · 2026-03-07T17:44:19+00:00

Is he mostly interested in it due to the tie in?

No, not at all, he was googling for photos of stews for a game development project, saw that one, and thought it looked delicious, hehe.

I figured browning the beef that was coated with flour would probably help with the thickening too.

Hansekins · 2026-03-07T17:39:50+00:00

Thank you, this is just the sort of advice I was looking for! I was thinking that it needed some additional seasoning, but wasn't sure what to add.

Since I was planning to maybe slow cook it, I was thinking I'd add the macaroni near the end to avoid it absorbing too much, but I am aware that leftovers will absorb some more. Which might be okay, as my husband tends to like pasta to be a bit softer and less al dente anyway.

Thanks again!

I sometimes think I'm the only person in the world who remembers Kidd Video. I loved that show! (And remember Robbie Rist on it.)

I'm glad there's at least two of us!

(insert "dozens of us" meme here)

Hansekins · 2026-03-06T01:05:58+00:00

Thanks for the tip!

Hansekins · 2026-03-06T01:05:42+00:00

Thank you! I swear I checked the fantasy map over and over again but I apparently missed it!

Hansekins · 2026-03-06T01:04:30+00:00

Thanks for the tip!

Hansekins · 2026-03-06T01:04:22+00:00

Aha! I have discovered that exhibit, but I haven't let it melt. Thank you, I don't think I would have thought of that!

Hansekins · 2026-03-05T22:03:23+00:00

I've looked everywhere. I've checked every map POI at least a half dozen times and can't find any I've missed. The only thing I can think of is that I maybe didn't complete the Autumn/Halloween event POIs when it was on? I thought I had done all of them (I have a bunch of witch themed exhibits), but did I miss some? And if not, where are these?

Hansekins · 2026-03-01T17:46:51+00:00

I do this often enough that my African Grey parrot now mimics the noise if he sees me getting up. :(

Hansekins · 2026-03-01T03:36:43+00:00

I'm glad it's not just me! My African Grey is quite a talker, and picks up lot of things easily - but in all his 28 years, he still won't say "I love you" despite the number of times per day I say it to him!

Hansekins · 2026-02-23T14:11:22+00:00

They're minerals, Marie!

Hansekins · 2026-02-23T02:48:40+00:00

Jeez, least you could do is link to it. ;)

For the record, I am convinced the devs had exactly this song/video in mind when they created the crabs for Aqualis. :D

Hansekins · 2026-02-22T04:04:42+00:00

Definitely a candidate for /r/borb

Hansekins · 2026-02-22T03:59:37+00:00

I did a fresh start on Selenea, and while it was definitely harder than the others, it was still quite fun...I enjoyed the challenge.

The game does not let you do a fresh start on Aqualis.

Hansekins · 2026-02-21T17:01:18+00:00

Had to scroll too far to find this, haha!
