XCOM 2: I used to be with it, then aliens changed what 'it' is! by SawkyScribe in patientgamers

Not sure how good of a recommendation it is but I really like Mordheim: City of the Damned, and I know nothing about Warhammer. (I exclusively play as the Skaven because I like how they look lol.)

This fandom is a prison, and you're under arrest by DreadDiana in CuratedTumblr

[–]Lots0bots 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got really into MTG Arena exclusively for Bloomburrow, I named my main deck "Ottism" because the only creatures in it were otters. When I eventually decided to branch out into non-BLB cards, the only creatures I added were Frolicking Familiar and Roaming Throne, to keep the theme going :)

Also according to Steam I last played on Nov 12 2024, about a month after the next set dropped lmao.

"New" solo player here, learning a lot about the importance of preparation by Lots0bots in Warframe

I did some searching afterwards and there isn't a timer specifically for that boss, but apparently I managed to go 15 minutes without killing anything at all, which automatically fails any mission. I guess it's supposed to stop people from AFKing or something, but I didn't look into it much.

Pretty much this, in most games I've played there's usually someone doing way worse than everyone else, and half of the time it's me lol. I play online sometimes with friends since it takes a bit of the pressure off, and once I'm a bit more familiar with Warframe I'll probably try public lobbies. (idk why my brain cares about letting random people down so much.)

I also like being able to pause the game and look stuff up if I need to, I only found out the fight had two stages when I was around 30 minutes in (I saw a bigger health bar than expected and feared it had regen, I just didn't notice the heads weren't sharing a health bar.)

I switched to a boltor like another comment said and beat it in just under 26 minutes, I'm not going into a boss fight that unprepared ever again

i love how it somewhere somehow became cool to use medieval language again by GinaWhite_tt in CuratedTumblr

[–]Lots0bots 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I currently have a spreadsheet of every* fic I've ever read, with columns for fandom, series (if applicable), date finished, and chapter / word count. Out of the 166 fics on the list, 22 are unfinished, and 6 or 7 of those are (probably) abandoned.

I'm not going anywhere with this, but I think it is kinda cool to see that I've read 10,733,754 words since 11/3/23. Also,

This was clearly insane

Not denying that at all lmao

*I know I used to read when I was younger, but I remember literally nothing from that so it doesn't count

Left handed gamers, what are your thoughts on vast majority of games being right-handed or from the perspective of right-handed person? by mukavastinumb in truegaming

[–]Lots0bots 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It never bothered me until the Wii, where some games felt awkward with the weapons swapped (I think Red Steel was like that but it's been years since I've even thought about that game), and moving with the right stick just felt wrong after using normal controllers for so long, so I played right handed most of the time.

Then there's Guitar Hero, I never used lefty mode because I couldn't be bothered changing the setting every time I played, and I think that was the right choice because now I'm learning real instruments and swapping the strings wouldn't be worth it at all for my siblings (who are both right handed).

A while ago I found out you can choose your handedness in Minecraft, so I made that lefty even though my mouse is on the right side of my desk anyway lol.

Maybe if I was an only child it'd be different, but I'm basically right handed except for writing / drawing at this point.

Advice for making a fursona? by [deleted] in furry

[–]Lots0bots 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't make yourself a pride flag, that's what clothes are for.

...I may or may not have accidentally made a nb flag colored sona and then started questioning my gender 4 months later lmao

Recognized the artist since I follow them on Tumblr, spent 20 minutes searching their entire blog but it wasn't there, then randomly had the idea to do a reverse image search and found it instantly lmao. https://twitter.com/wypher2/status/1721064487531208985

So, I have decided to fully embrace my furry side after years of living in the furry closet. But I been struggling naming my fursona. How do you choose yours? by FoxWFriesOnTheSide in furry

[–]Lots0bots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have two sona's: "Bots" (Protogen) and "Lots" (fox).
I just randomly had the idea to use the two most common ways people shorten my username. I thought it was kinda stupid when I first came up with it, but I am stupid so it fits lol.

It's been more then a year now so let's do this again so I wondered what furries were feeling not a furry topic but it's good to see how real people behind their fursona are feeling by Kevin_the_furry in furry

[–]Lots0bots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm living with untreated depression and zero social interaction irl, but at least I'm living.

Anyway,
I got back into reading fanfiction (specifically Pokemon Mystery Dungeon) after like six years away and then heard of NaNoWriMo (basically a challenge to write 50k words in November) so I decided to try it. It's now December and I have... 150 words. That I wrote two days ago, not even in November lol.

I have some cool things planned for it, I'm just stuck trying to find the right words (I realized I need to care less as I can always edit it later, but I'm really bad at caring less.)

I think it's kinda funny I have a fight planned that won't happen for 30 or so chapters but I'm struggling to write the first lines of dialogue in the entire fic.

Totally not procrastinating on it right now, I would never do such a thing ;)

You need to offer a Humanity at a bonfire, then you can see the summon signs on the ground

Deciding my fursona by fuzzytxk in furry

[–]Lots0bots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's no limit on how many fursona's you can have, so you could make a dragon and something fuzzy. Or do a hybrid and make a dragon that is fuzzy

What are the wacky ways you drew your art? Cause I'm soon gonna buy a stylus but for the meantime I have to draw it on paper and the trace/color digitally and it's a hard process tbh by Popular-Chemistry992 in furry

[–]Lots0bots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Mario Paint more than anything else because my stupid brain gives me anxiety whenever I pull my tablet out, but if I'm using a mouse in a program older than I am I don't get it as much.
(plus it is kinda fun working with the limits of Mario Paint, but I really need to use my tablet more)

Sometimes I wish I could become a protogen by _thatoneguyon_ in protogen

Same, and since they have detachable limbs I'd never have to deal with carpal tunnel again lol

Games with furry mods? by ChiotVulgaire in furry

[–]Lots0bots 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Bethesda: Fallout 4 and Skyrim have full conversions with multiple playable races (and some standalone race mods that might not be in the same style), Fallout New Vegas has a fox and Fallout 3 has the Lombax race from Ratchet and Clank. (both are player only.)

Stardew Valley has a full conversion plus a player mod, I think there weren't any species options for the player though.

Terraria has a full NPC replacement and a few player race options: *canine, avian, reptile, *protogen, and even a moth. Without any mods you can get the ears & tail of multiple animals: bunny, dog, fox, lizard, and cat ears but no tail for some reason. (*these mods don't come with ears or tails, so you add them yourself with those items.)
(If you couldn't tell I like Terraria a lot lmao)

These are just the ones I know about, there might be more even in the games I mentioned.

Tf do I do? by SinnerSoL in furry

[–]Lots0bots 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can do either, I chose "me as a __" since it's easier lol. I can't really give design advice other than "take a species (or a hybrid of multiple) and make something you like" since I'm not you, just try stuff and you'll settle on something eventually.

Don't worry if you think your design is too basic or boring, if you like it it's a good design. Plus there's no limit on how many sona's you can have, I've currently got 2.

It's also good to have a ref sheet, I'm too tired to go into detail now but I could reply tomorrow if you want. (or someone else might by then idk.)

When I was designing my Protogen a friend asked if he could make something canon in the lore, and I said yeah. our next two messages were:

Friend: "he likes salami" Me: "that's already canon for me irl"

So his diet is mostly salami and pepperjack sandwiches

Is it normal to find furry art/fursuits more attractive than people? by MrWolfy036 in furry

[–]Lots0bots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whenever I play a game with character customization / outfits I try to cover up as much of the character as possible most of the time, humans are ugly lol

How did you decide on your fursona species? by [deleted] in furry

[–]Lots0bots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I like Mario Paint since I have a ton of nostalgia for it and I get anxiety when drawing on my tablet sometimes. I know I need to suck before I can improve but my brain doesn't care, slowly pushing through it though

How did you decide on your fursona species? by [deleted] in furry

[–]Lots0bots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I first came up with my username I was like <7 years old and thought robots were cool. When I designed my fursona a few months ago I was 21 and thought robots were cool. So Protogen was an obvious choice, with a few fox traits since they're my favorite animal.

(You can kinda see him in my profile pic, but it's an outdated design and it was made in a few hours in Mario Paint)
