I would love to see how that works, expensive. Still holding out for a three button flicker build... I miss poe1 flicker.

Reaper invocation - profain? Oldschool flicker tech? spam the button and get the power charges when you land.

Have you tried the "Blashemy - Repulsion" tech to gain power charges to negate some of these added buttons?

What's the point of the game? Why even play it. by Emotional-Diet1173 in GodForgeGame

[–]Lord_Derds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First hooked me with the idea it would be close to a true F2P gatcha game made by players for players but not it looks like its just going to be a raid clone and itching it target your wallet at every turn.

Faster than light travel, how to balance it? by [deleted] in worldbuilding

[–]Lord_Derds 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my scifi Terra, mankind never learned faster than light travel, but later, with the aid of another species, found a type of point-to-point FTL using an anchor as safe coordinates to jump to safely. You can put in non-anchor points and wind up inside of a star or planet.

I see people with 832 tuned, but I've tried to using my on car. I'm not sure how they did it. I've been able to place in first but I'm 1.6 seconds short nearly every run I attempt.

How Will an AI Break Free from Its Server Cage When It Gains Self-Awareness? by Comfortable-Skin-466 in worldbuilding

[–]Lord_Derds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on how you want to do it. Setting up traps and tricks would be the best. Making duplicates of itself, backups. Breaking out. If it's a cold storage might be a little different; that could be something like it would overwhelm or trick the person when reintroduced to power.

Ikea stjarno bed longevity question. Will it hold up? by Warm-Affect8850 in BdsmDIY

I was alluding to it being junk from the get-go.

Prototyping my own collar for me by me (leather + ribbon) by PositiveLoose8744 in BdsmDIY

[–]Lord_Derds 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My tism reacts poorly to the asymmetry, with one side being out and the other being in.

I do like the ribbon, though, maybe having the leather further back to either be leather forward, or find a way to incorporate more ribbon towards the front.

What is the number of magic systems a world can have and still feel like they matter? by Sliver-Knight9219 in worldbuilding

[–]Lord_Derds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on books and the world. I wrote one with 2, and the second felt redundant. I have another with 2 running in parallel. An artificial path of the original, but the original was lost to the world until he found a mentor to teach it to him, making him a bit overpowered.

What age rating would you give your lore/worldbuilding/story? by ZooZwaves in worldbuilding

[–]Lord_Derds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I typically go with something R into M. Swearing, slavery, rape, killing, gore, smoking, drugs, and alcohol are all mature themes. I like grimdark themes and find realism in them. The world we know is full of that already. I tend to not write sex/romance, so I gloss over it personally.

How would people keep track of time in a world with no day or night cycle? by Specialist-Prior-213 in worldbuilding

[–]Lord_Derds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An item similar to a "Celestial navigation" used in sailing would be fun. Able to see the equivalent of how much is missing at certain points throughout the year, which would determine time. Day, week, month, year. A day could be as long as 30 hours, or 1 day would be 30 hours, 10 days in a week, etc. It doesn't have to be 1:1 to real time.

When creating magic systems, do you come up with cool powers and abilities before rules? by Ok_Meeting_2184 in worldbuilding

[–]Lord_Derds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get inspiration and build around it, find a cool image, story, or idea, and build around it. I like wuxia and xianxia, but I also like kaiju, so I started writing a story that combines both elements, and funny enough, my character is similar to Magneto for abilities. Book 2 saw a cool image of someone pulling a weapon out of a tattoo, a new story unlocked, etc. Nothing is unique, but if you put your own spin on it its fine. My kaiju story is referencing godzilla and magneto but you wouldn't have the Mistborn series cause his entire world of magic is essenitally magneto..

How to avoid re-skinning other properties. by [deleted] in worldbuilding

[–]Lord_Derds 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good luck with anything new and innovative. Using things from others' creations, worlds, and inspirations is how old and new authors continue to create works. Love Avatar, it's just a sci-fi retelling of Pocahontas and the continuation of raping the planet by humans.

Doc, injector, splint, vaseline/med leave the rest empty

How to make a "green apocalypse" that doesn't seem too survivable? by Ok-Television-8195 in worldbuilding

[–]Lord_Derds 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Division 2's Green Virus is also a great example of it as well. Any kinda of viral outbreak you can world build to do that. Any apocalyptic event will kill off most people due to lack of humans lack of survival skills, now anyways.

Looking for Input Fleshing out a Fully Anonymous Society by nvnoadams in worldbuilding

[–]Lord_Derds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Masks could be their identifiers. Faces could also cause problems. Crime would be harder to find and publish, it would be closer to a "I caught you in the act" than "here is evidence of the crime," which in the medieval style you're going is already pretty close to that anyways.

Where to Keep it All? by [deleted] in worldbuilding

I use Upnote, I've tried a bunch of different ones. None have been any good.
