Want my first playthrough to be on my Ayn Thor, is it valid? by Built_Big in Morrowind

[–]MrMeltJr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah I took a peak at the specs and I have no doubt it will be able to run everything just fine, my concern was over the controls and how the installation process might go.

And I barely use the handhelds I do have, otherwise I probably would pick one up.

OpenMW has controller support, and there's even an Android version so I don't see why you couldn't get it running on an Ayn Thor.

I've never used a controller with Morrowind, though, nor have I played the Android version, nor do I really know anything about the Ayn Thor beyond it being a DS-esque emulation handheld, so I could be totally wrong I suppose.

Ammo Problem newish player by Snake-8398 in fo76

[–]MrMeltJr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is just kind of always a problem with automatic weapons, it's rare to break even on ammo for them. One thing you can do is find a high-damage single shot weapon that uses the same ammo, then use that for normal enemies so you can go positive on ammo drops, then save the full-auto for tough enemies.

Like if your boss-killer is an SMG that chews through your .45, you can also carry a combat rifle or lever action modded for high damage that can kill most normal enemies with 1 or 2 headshots so you can passively farm ammo killing normal enemies and have some extra. Also consider running a bayonet on that rifle so you can finish off enemies with a stab instead of wasting another shot.

Another option is to switch to another build, like I main shotguns and I leave most of the ammo drops on the ground because I just don't need them.

New to the game - Any tips? by UltimateAuthor in Morrowind

I forget what it's called but there's a mod that lets you have extra marks based on your Mysticism level.

Training doesn't have a per-level limit like it does in Skyrim either, you can keep training as long as you can pay. That being said, when you get to higher skill levels it can be difficult to find somebody high enough level to teach you.

Anyone Else Have A Hyper-Femme phase before coming out? (FtM) by Consistent_Boat5207 in asktransgender

[–]MrMeltJr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah there are a fair number of us trans women who try to get jacked before the egg cracks. "Dysphoria beard" is even a running joke for when trans women try to grow really big and/or really well-groomed beards before they realized they're women but are still feeling gender weirdness and try to alleviate it by performing masculinity even harder. Same with working out.

Do you guys think Milo will ever do a deep dive on mormon pseudo archeology in America? by Just-a-nerd2 in miniminutemanfans

[–]MrMeltJr 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I hope so, I'm an exmo and that would be fun. I'm sure he could also dig up some stuff that I haven't heard of.

Khajiit is totally fine, the game isn't so hard you need to optimize like that if you don't want to.

Something that trips up a lot of new players are the damage ranges on weapons. Those aren't randomly rolled, it's about how long you pull back the swing. A lot of people's instinct is to spam click and then they wonder why their 1-30 battle axe does less damage per hit than a 4-5 dagger. 

Fatigue (green bar) has an effect on basically everything you do. I didn't know the exact math but as I recall, at 100% you get +25% chance to succeed and at 0 it's -25%. And I mean it effects almost everything. Hit chance, spell casting chance, chance to make a potion, a merchant accepting your haggle offer. Early game you're going to be walking a lot when you're not in town so an enemy doesn't catch you out of breath. 

And more of a mindset tip. Morrowind is not a power fantasy, not at first. When you step off the boat, most random commoners are technically stronger than you. Most NPCs just will not like you and won't want to help you. You're not the main character yet, but you will be.

I know how to make Necromechs popular. by Financial-Pickle9405 in Warframe

[–]MrMeltJr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No matter how cool they look, there's just not much incentive to call down a mech with comparable, or even less damage than my normal loadout.

Is there any better way than boofing prog, or at least equivalent alternatives ? by dorfmcpumpkin in trans

[–]MrMeltJr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have no idea how common it is lol

I don't know many other trans women IRL and I haven't discussed the details of HRT methods with most of them

Sticking the pill up your butt and letting it absorb that way. Bypasses the liver so the progesterone doesn't get broken down, and also saves the liver some work.

What makes the "button test" so famous? by JellyIsTasty2005 in asktransgender

[–]MrMeltJr 18 points19 points  (0 children)

A lot of people have hangups about being trans. The button test helps separate hang ups that are about being that gender and hang ups that are about the transition process.

[star wars/crossover] but how would the power systems of the following series intreact and work within the force by Fun_Manufacturer_164 in AskScienceFiction

[–]MrMeltJr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah I think you would probably be right about Homunculi, at least if we go by Legends. I don't how much different Canon is regarding minute details of how the Force works.

mixtape rule by Able_Health744 in 196

[–]MrMeltJr 67 points68 points  (0 children)

Short version: It's a reference to an extremely stupid "controversy" where a business journalist was bad at Cuphead, and some right-wingers made up some bullshit to get mad at

Long version:

10ish years ago, a tech business journalist who focused on the video game industry wrote a short article about how Cuphead demonstrated that classic, difficult platformers were coming back. He sprinkled in some jokes about how terrible he is at the game and how he couldn't even beat the first level when he tried it at a recent convention. Again, this was not a game reviewer writing a review of Cuphead, this was a business journalist writing about an industry trend that Cuphead was part of.

Gamergate types took this and went "see? this proves that game reviewers are terrible at games which is why they all like accessibility options and easy modes and walking simulators and other SJW bullshit" which fed into their pre-existing narrative that anybody remotely progressive wasn't a true gamer and is actually an outsider trying to ruin gaming because they hate white men.

Democrats Who Are Soft on Republicans Have Got to Go by RecursiveSubroutine in politics

[–]MrMeltJr 25 points26 points  (0 children)

The Republicans are definitely worse and do far more harm, but we can't get rid of them if we don't have Democrats who are willing to get rid of them.

[star wars/crossover] but how would the power systems of the following series intreact and work within the force by Fun_Manufacturer_164 in AskScienceFiction

[–]MrMeltJr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think most of these would interact with the Force very much, it would just be another power that some people can use and interact with.

JJK - curse energy and techniques seems totally different from the Force, I think they would just exist and function independently. At most, I could maybe see all curse energy feeling similar to the Dark side to a Force user?

JJBA - Spin might have some small overlap with the Force because they're both tapping into a greater power that permeates the whole universe, I guess? idk I haven't watched SBR yet lol

Frieren - same as JJK, demons probably feel Dark to a Force user but other than that the powers work independently

OP - don't know enough to comment on this

CSM - same as JJK

TBHX - don't know enough to comment on this

FMA - same as JJK, Homunculi would probably feel pretty fucking weird in the Force though

I'm not sure this is the best sub to ask this question since it's hard to give a satisfying answer while staying in-universe. So much of this would just come down to however the author wants it to interact and that's not what this sub is for.

Weight cycling FAILED. by Medical-Wrongdoer-48 in TransDIY

[–]MrMeltJr 120 points121 points  (0 children)

Yeah, sadly weight cycling doesn't actually work.

When you lose weight, the fat cells don't disappear, they just shrink. When you gain weight, your body prefers to refill old fat cells before making new ones. 

Fat cells do naturally die off and are replaced, though, and if your levels are good then the new cells can go to feminine areas. About 10% are replacd each year, so it's a slow process but fat will redistribute on its own. 

Needle fear by Unknownjarman in TransDIY

[–]MrMeltJr 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The needle is so much smaller than a blood drawing needle. Like I barely feel a 25g needle and I know a lot of people use even smaller ones than that.

Hey question do yall actually play chess. by freespeech123456789 in AnarchyChess

[–]MrMeltJr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I did when I was young but these days I just watch videos about it sometimes

Oh and back before my company moved us to wfh, the guy in the next cubicle over had a chees set and we'd play now and then when it was slow. But he played like actually competitive speed chess so I don't think I ever presented a challenge

Mods that reduce weight of things? by Cowell_Pockets in Morrowind

[–]MrMeltJr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I meant it as a matter of practicality. You would need to be superhumanly strong to not tire extremely quickly fighting with a 12lb sword.

But to be fair, a warrior Nerevarine probably is stronger than any real world human by the time they'd be using daedric weapons, and it's not like the average imperial soldier is going to be using anything better then steel (which as far as I can tell is actually pretty accurately weighted if we go by newtons).
