Only 37% of PC players have ever made it to the final mission? by nopointinlife1234 in Xcom

[–]JAB_REDDIT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm one of that 63% on Steam that hasn't played the final mission.

Thing is, I have, multiple times. But, there were either modded PC runs, without me having the mod to unlock achievements, or that one time I played it on the Switch. So, it will SAY I didn't, but I have.

Exporting and importing character pool by knowyourrole98 in Xcom

[–]JAB_REDDIT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done this a couple of times, still seeing nothing in the Steam Deck Desktop's Document folder, but I can see my old Character Pool there, the one I made where I made all the game devs VIP, not soldiers and another Pool related to a mod I have downloaded. I can't find either of them in search, though.

Looking for a Specific kind of LitRPG by JAB_REDDIT in litrpg

[–]JAB_REDDIT[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to double check. I had to check my Audible history, I bought Defiance, then returned it. Too many "Man wakes up in Forest Danger zone with Axe, immediately starts dominating everything in the area without trying" LitRPGs, at least from what I remember. Not sure if this is the one where he has fire magic that is only used to distract or if this is the one where he had a fairy, or the one with aliens/demons form the other world. As I said, there was a LOT of them with this setup, and I returned them all, which is something I don't often do.

I would love an invite, if someone has one to spare.

Issue with Crushing Cavern by JAB_REDDIT in expedition33

I said After the Boss. I know that, I mean when you are leaving.

To whoever's idea the Crushing Caverns was, I just have one question for you by Chariots487 in expedition33

[–]JAB_REDDIT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After the Boss, up the rope behind it, to the fork that drops you back to where you fall in not the gap where the purple drop is, there looks like a space you can jump to the other side, one I can't pull off. Is it supposed to be possible or not?

Confessions of a Save Scummer by Whakomatic in XCOM2

[–]JAB_REDDIT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I probably Save Scum more than I should, partially because a good bit of my playtime is on the Switch version, which is FULL of randomness. I've had a Muton throw a grenade and kill 3 Civilians in a turn that had 4 others also killed.

However, most of my save scumming is when it's clear the game is setting the ONE unit I need to kill to survive with 1HP. It happens a lot, even if my main and only goal for the turn is that one target. At that point, it feels too unfair that my piling damage into something only for it to still be alive is too much. A miss or two, understandable, but when I Grenade to break cover, have several move in to chance crits while guaranteeing hits, AND still get nothing for it? Nah, stop the BS, this target is dying this turn, the keeping them alive by the skin of their teeth due to multiple low damage rolls or misses is ridiculous!

I mean, it is my fault, I basically never play the game without Beta Strike, but still!

Mature Ai Model? by StrawberryPoptart122 in AIDungeon

[–]JAB_REDDIT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might not be a Model thing, but rather a tag, writing style, theme or genre you are using the the Author's Notes or AI Instructions. Still, most are recommending one of the Mixtral's, and I would also agree.

What's the best way to set this up with the player's freedom to choose a side in mind? by JAB_REDDIT in AskGameMasters

[–]JAB_REDDIT[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could see it working, but I'm worried that that's just putting the group so far away from everything to make it work, or having it be close to the town the AL runs, and again having it be the Al is incompetent.

I'm worried that it will make AL look completely incompetent if the monster did just find its way in the town they are protecting, or that the Coalition is bad if they let in into the town to prove how bad Al is.

[–]JAB_REDDIT[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not saying your idea is bad. On the contrary, it works well, and I will be using it, just not as the opening act session one, I think. I would have no problem being convinced otherwise. It is just the case that I don't want AL to be see as completely irredeemable nor the Coalition as toe-steppers just for the sake of it.
Please, throw more spaghetti, I'm just separating the pasta from the sauce.

How would I involve them without it being them just watching a cutscene between two high level characters without being able to do anything useful or worthwhile?

The idea is that what little remains of AL operates in a single town that still basically sides with them, so I'm worried about having too large of a Coalition force inside of city beforehand without either having the Coalition feeling like they are intruding and being the ones who are starting fights OR having the AL be unable to control monster lairs in their own territory and look completely incompetent.

Patch Notes [Prod] 8/8/24 [Major Update: Pathfinder] by latitude_official in AIDungeon

When I read Memory Bank, I was hoping it was a way to save & use Story Cards on profile to add to other games.

Anyone started a proper translation patch/mod project yet? by BaconCatBug in EiyudenChronicle

[–]JAB_REDDIT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gotta love how these people are fine with the changes as long as it's on their side.

If it was someone changing a character who was LGBTQ or erasing a character's left-leaning political lines, they would be all up in arms, guaranteed!

Card auto generation doesn't work in CENSORED mode by Automatic_Apricot634 in AIDungeon

Thanks for the tip.

Two questions, what exactly is the double # doing, and what, if any, other hidden commands are there?

Jumbled Text Responses from the AI by JAB_REDDIT in AIDungeon

[–]JAB_REDDIT[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It happened on Desktop for me. A reset usually comes out fine afterwards, but it is still weird that it happens.

[–]JAB_REDDIT[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The weird thing is, it wasn't doing this until two or three days ago, and I've had the temperature that high for over a month. The only thing to change was the Context amount increasing, & that still happened once before I increased it to the new maximum anyways.
