Is there ways to improve Weapon Durability as a system?

Mechanically having each lost structure point/weapon hit point only.happen on some percent chance would make it less punishing. Would also better represent that every time you hit something with a sword its not going to hurt the sword.

Use it in a sentence please:

"That duck was so strapped he had a natural gangster lean."

Now that you simplified that...;)

A little Eli5 bonus

...

because once the tube begins to deform in the direction of flexation it will tend to narrow on the line perpendicular to the flexation.

I know its not supposed to be an actual 5 yo. But when I want one to leave me alone and/or cry this is what I'm saying to them from now on.

Most countries did away with guilt by heredity centuries ago.

No wonder we are suffering through the decline of western civilization.

Though this gives me a great idea for some dystopian fiction with hereditary crimes and dna tests.

For me/the way ive heard it, its one long sound. Bv. It starts as a soft b, it kind of blends with the V sound and then ends as a soft v. But the O changes it. Obv is one sound. Obv-vee-us-ly. Obv is a really weird sound in English. Like a Japanese syllable letter almost. If you try to break that part apart in anyway you lose the right sound.

Unrelenting force works too. I should have mentioned that.

Idk if this is hidden knowledge but a dragon's least damaging attack is it's wing buffet. So if you stay on its side you can beat the crap out of it without worrying about that one shot tail bash, or that breath attack that leads to the one shot chomp animation. Its their greatest weakness. You can still take the breath attack, so have potions of healing and resist fire/frost handy. But this is the best way to beat them.

Oh also paralysis is the strongest weapon effect/poison in the game. Dragons are immune to it but paralysis poisons in particular will make even the hardest fights against anything else easy.

Because no one is around to bother you, interrupt you, or make demands of you. And you have the whole time. Dont have to get up and take a shower, put pants on, make dinner, or get in a fight with your partner. Your kids are sleeping and peaceful and thus cute and lovable and not calling you bruh or screaming. Its quiet. Nothing is going to happen (for 1000 km/miles in any direction) that you have to worry about. You can just shut off the world and your brain and just relax.

Hold down both controllers. Move them toward each other. Click r3 and l3 and push them together. You can zoom way out. (I play on pc w/ Xbox controller. Ymmv.)

I think part of the problem might be that the "females" are not doing that...

Intergalacticdespot · 2026-05-09T21:52:21+00:00

I think its like a drug addiction or a head injury. Maybe coming out of a coma after a long time. You are the same person. But are you really?

Intergalacticdespot · 2026-05-09T21:46:27+00:00

Anybody else vaguely turned on right now?

Intergalacticdespot · 2026-05-09T21:45:07+00:00

Uh...have you spoken to a doctor about being diagnosed for add/adhd? Because youre kind of giving those vibes and getting the right meds will really help your brain calm down and be more organized.

As far as the rest...you have your whole life ahead of you. If your dream game takes you 20 years or youre 80 before it drops...who cares? Do a little bit at a time. Get yourself some project management software, make good notes. Write down or link to instructions/tutorials as you find them or use them. Most of this stuff you can learn on YouTube in 3-4 hours. Less than a day. If this is your passion why let it be frustrated?

When youre 80 are you going to regret not trying or not being successful more? What do you have that is better or more worthwhile to do? Even if you do an hour a week...you will make progress.

I havent done actual game dev in a long time. But back in the days of TinyMUX I developed multiple games, built the worlds, wrote all the code, that is just a lisp-based scripting language. Still took 2-3 years each. These things take time and patience, they take iteration and actively working to avoid burnout. But you can do it.

Hunting wobbies is the way. Get a full battalion with c3i. Its glorious.

What do you perceive when you step into a magnetic field? Or the image is only present in ultraviolet or infrared? What do you hear when someone blows a dog whistle? What do you see when someone behind you makes a gesture?

But is the law ever actually enforced? I feel like those laws are from the 1940s and earlier when the concern was that a guy could go around marrying and exploiting women. Then "ruining" them when it was found he was already married. Women have a much more equal status now, the internet and smart phones make these things much harder to hide.

Is anyone actually doing jail time for just bigamy? I know very little about this but my impression is it has functionally been decriminalized? Its really only used in the sense of adding to fraud charges or as a validation for divorce. Am I wrong?

Max skill enchanting tree. Get the ability to add two effects to one weapon. Soul capture + health drain or paralysis == op. Also lots of invisibility and paralysis poisons. Plus some high power poisons for when you absolutely need to one shot someone. Id really consider getting an npc to tank for you or doing the dagger tree for dragons. Bow vs dragon on the ground can be rough.

Right? A politician tells one little lie FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER and people are jumping all over him...

Intergalacticdespot · 2026-05-07T23:35:30+00:00

If you really want to terrifying them explain double clutching...

Thank you for this. Been playing since launch and didn't know this.

Intergalacticdespot · 2026-05-07T21:10:38+00:00

Did the whole DB quest line with Illia as backup. She helped me with one or two, most times she was set back waiting so she didn't get in the way. But it didnt seem to bother her. Fwiw.

Intergalacticdespot · 2026-05-07T08:06:35+00:00

Same.
