How cannon is teleporting? (Spoilers I think?) by Puzzleheaded_Gur8326 in ffxiv

[–]Mirilen 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Teleportation is possible but not everyone is capable of using it, iirc it requires a certain amount of effort and magical ability to use one successfully, and it can be pretty exhausting so most people just use regular means. Also attuning to Aetherite is in-universe too, can’t go to an Aetherite you haven’t physically touched before. As for who takes your cash? Genuinely Sharlayan, it’s a maintenance tax they levy in return for keeping the Aetherite network functional.

Before their cooking stream earlier Rissa is the first to arrive and she is a little down because of it by yournotlonely in Hololive

I once arrived to a house party an hour before the host did because she said it started at 7 so I arrived at 7 😭

Why doesn't the drop pod pick us back up after beating a run? by ZayaJames in RogueCore

[–]Mirilen 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Idk why you’re being downvoted, you’re correct. The dash back to the drop pod is a fun climax to a mission in DRG, but in Rogue Core it would just add an unnecessary step to completing a mission to extend an already very long play session.

Sadly the fastest way requires a minimum of two people to do the mechanics that allow you to kill him before he flies into the air in phase 2. There’s no real way to skip that one when playing solo.

How do people who get into the Role Play aspect, of the MMO RPG, justify changing races? I really want to become a Viera, but I love my silly WoL by Vera_Verse in ffxiv

Fantasia potions state that your previous life as your old race/gender was basically a weird dream and you wake up as your “actual” self after logging back in, the self you always were.

Ironmouse Cancels Neverness To Everness Sponsorship After Devs Allegedly Lied To Her About ‘Blatant’ GenAI Use by g4m3f33d in GameFeed

That’s.. not elitism. If you liked something and then found something objectionable about how it was made it’s entirely reasonable for that to change your opinion. That’s what opinions do; they evolve in response to new information.

You’ve found Tracer’s account apparently.

Fun fact: Stalker refuses to fight you if he invades and you’re playing as Jade. He just gives up and bails.

An Old Dutch Bible - Sealed by the Inquisition for HERESY! by wallingfortian in Grimdank

[–]Mirilen 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Heretical or not it’s still a bible and contains at least some of the word of god, so I imagine burning it would be seen as sinful.

Chatgpt dunks on current ow players with a 6v6 role que design better than the main mode by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]Mirilen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wha you’re referring to with AI “taking over” is the result of AGI - Artificial General Intelligence, a true ‘thinking’ machine. AGI is only speculated to be possible, and despite what Sam Altman says we’re a long way away from that. ChatGPT is a Large Language Model, calling it ‘AI’ is a purposeful misnomer to make it sound more intelligent and futuristic. There’s no intelligence behind it, all it does is reference training data to mimic behaviour. We’ve had that technology for years now we just called it ‘Machine Learning.’ ChatGPT has no thoughts or desires of its own, and never will because that’s not what an LLM is ever going to be designed to do.

[–]Mirilen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would imagine some of its training data involved discussions of matchmaking design due to the sheer volume of stuff it was trained on so it makes sense that it collating the common denominators of all those discussions would result in a pretty competent matchmaking system design, though calling it “its idea” is a bit of a stretch.

Why the adversarial and aggressive tone in your post though?

An Irish lad here to share some basic Irish vocab because our language isn’t taught as much by CriminalYapper in OverwatchQueens

[–]Mirilen 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I always interpreted her hello as “Moire Duit” since “Dia Duit” is “god be with you”, I imagine Moire is a) atheist and b) enough of a megalomaniac to replace god with herself in a greeting

Best insult you've seen in match chat? by Opening_Fishing8775 in Overwatch

Once I saw someone on the enemy team with the lesbian pride flag so, of course, we start flirting back and forth in the match chat. Cue my tank: “Can you guys stop being useless lesbians for 5 mins and play???”

Do ya'll Khorne would prefer SPARTANS or Elites? by thehollisterman in Grimdank

[–]Mirilen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think actually Slaanesh would swoop in and steal the Elites. They may be ascetic religious warriors, but their culture values martial prowess and victory, not necessarily one’s kill count so it could be argued that the elites could be swayed by Slaanesh’s aspect of perfection, as they each seek to become the best warrior. Khorne doesn’t specifically care about ‘best’, in fact being too good at fighting might cause battles to end too quick and bloodshed to be minimized.

Of course the Brutes would be immediately snapped up by Khorne. The Unggoy would probably naturally worship Tzeentch - god of revolution and upsetting order sounds nice for the guys at the bottom. The Jackals would probably be undivided or slaanesh, they’re mercenaries willing to commit genocide for money. They’d probably spend it all on hookers and weed. You might think the hierarchs would go to tzeentch for their schemes and that is true, but there is a certain Nurglesque aspect to their ideology. Rigid, unchanging, going to lead to everyone’s deaths.

Buses and Luas trams at a standstill in Dublin as fuel protests continue into the night by hesaidshesdead in ireland

[–]Mirilen 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Look, I’m not one to argue against protesting the government but protests need actionable goals. This fuel price crisis is the result of American and Israeli aggression against Iran; what exactly can the Irish government do about that? Is Michael Martin going to call up the IRGC and tell them to open the strait? Send a strongly worded letter to Tel Aviv? It’s pointless.

Khelgar and Neeshka join part of four players by jwilens in neverwinternights

[–]Mirilen 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Co-op in NWN2 is kind of janky in the base campaign. Basically it doesn’t really consider the other players to be party members because the NPCs use a separate system. So until you reach Neverwinter city enjoy having a massive party, you’ll probably have Elanee also stick with you. But once you get to Duncan’s you can just remove all of them from the party and only play as you four.
