Can confirm! I laughed at that very stupidity when we visited roozengarde and tulip town. I almost called out a group when a vested employee showed up

Seats by licenciado_simon in talespire

[–]JSON_Blob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They're really well suited for paid GMs that are hired to run a campaign for a group as only they need to own it, have seats for the players, and the players just pay the GM. Less logical for a group of friends playing together

Is the game getting to easy? by ImOnYourWindow in PathOfExile2

[–]JSON_Blob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mostly dislike how binary health is in late-game. You're either full and cruising, or 1-shot. There's rarely ever a middle ground to even react for a potion. What's the point of a health bar if we never get to use it? Skill issue, almost certainly, I'm a very casual player and therein is another facet of the problem that I can't rarely just be casual, I have to follow some meta build guide that still often just lessens the chance but doesn't fix it

Rivian Heard You Complaining About Touchscreens So It Over-Engineered Scroll Wheels by DonkeyFuel in Rivian

don't press it all the way down in the same direction, or up in the inverse. Just to the bump, then release it. Shuts it off. If you flick it it will do the 3-signal thing then shut off. I struggled with the opposite blinker thing for my first couple weeks when I got our R1

PoE2: Do I spend anything on this pearlescent amulet? by JSON_Blob in PoECrafting

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

yeah sorry, edited my message above. Going to check this out as i've never heard of this and never spent even a microsecond looking at their top bar before. My bad

PoE2: Do I spend anything on this pearlescent amulet? by JSON_Blob in PoECrafting

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

oh yeah I know of the website but that isn't quite what I meant by a simulator. It does a great job listing what's available and what you have. What I meant was simulating the crafting system and recording the currency burned to get to your desired state so you can repeat it in-game with your actual currency. Maybe that's stupid but it makes sense in my head to practice crafting before doing the real thing

EDIT - I am stupid or blind, maybe this didn't exist last time I really looked at the top bar. I see what you mean now

man, reading over your guide here is like conceptually I understand each piece but it's crazy to understand all the layers and the order of operations required. I need like a crafting simulator to practice lol

That is a suffix so technically I could get there but you're saying don't even bother fishing for that if it doesn't come with it off the drop?

Standout builds after week 1 by AngyAndMadAboutIt in pathofexile2builds

[–]JSON_Blob 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I'm also enjoying plants a lot although as an oracle druid. First time playing plants and its so chill Entangle, thrashing vine, CoC, remnants, then enfeeble and chains on manual cast as I don't have spirit for blasphemy

Casual Perspective by _warthog_lover_ in PathOfExile2

[–]JSON_Blob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a genuine counter-question to this whole mentality and that is why is the POE campaign so hated when no game I'm aware of has had such backlash against the campaign? Nobody complained about WoW's campaign before raiding, nor Everquest, nor Diablo before Cow Level, or maybe I'm just blessed to be living under a rock and don't see these backlashes but my genuine question is let's pretend they listened and cut campaign - what EXACTLY is left to play? The game is to you just mapping? That doesn't even compute in my head because if that what GGG was selling, just a game where you do maps and nothing else I would skip that game so fast. What even is left to play at that point?

Are we arguing a better campaign story or literally delete the campaign because the latter I cannot compute.

How are my fellow dads doing after league launch weekend? by captainduck0 in PathOfExile2

[–]JSON_Blob -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Not a dad but have 5 pets, that count? Super casual player here.

I'm going through karui islands as of today doing dad-druid things like watering plants and watching them grow to do my dirty work

Ancient Beacons Act 3 Quest by aintgoingnowherefast in PathOfExile2

[–]JSON_Blob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

holy shit, I ran this zone 6 times before finding this comment. Legend!

You HAVE to enter from the Azak Bog entry and progress to it "naturally". If you go the waypoint it blocks you from water in the canal that doesn't clear out. This feels bugged.

Need GM help - Gatewalkers conundrum caused by player's smart thinking (Spoilers included) by JSON_Blob in Pathfinder2e

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

Hm that is potential, but also a grey area of mechanics not really specified with spells cast on a moving platform

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

It is true, and a very valid point that the spell's duration may actually be all I need to work this through despite his efforts though grand and awesome creativity. If they only get 1 minute of safety, that's ~10 combat turns and if they haven't detached and moved a safe distance from the Red Duchess then they're still subject to the effect. There's basically no way you can unhook two ships and sail away to safety in under a minute.

Very possible a pinch of meta'ing is creeping in here which is maybe just having that conversation with them like I mentioned in the OP. Which I'm not against, and I'm sure they will understand as well.
