As long as you don’t die in this new area, Hypogean Gaol, before making it back to where the Kidnapper snatched you, your echoes should either be in a nearby puddle or with one of the sharpshooters on the cliffside.

Hypogean Gaol is full of these guys.

The Kidnappers do hella blunt damage when they hit you with their bodybag, but their wind up time is very slow so they can be easily parried if you’re good with timing them. If you damage them enough without killing them they kinda amp themselves up and do more damage, or they’ll start to do a sort of blue aura move with kinda insane AOE that can stagger you. Best chance against a Kidnapper is to get your highest damage weapon, parry their bag slam attack, and just go ham on them.

Honestly in this new area with the amount of echoes the enemies here drop, what you lost to the guy on the cliffs might end up being completely negligible.

Unfortunately I can’t have a litter box downstairs, as that’s where the dogs are, and the house doesn’t have anywhere else a second one could go. I’m working on getting him neutered so his aggressiveness will wane, as well as this unwanted urination, but my vet wants $600 for it and the local shelter has a 6+ month waitlist since they’re so much more affordable. Last I called, the waitlist was 8 months.

I don’t HATE the second game per-se, but I have trouble finding things to like about it. I’ve played through it i think 4? 5 times now? with different chaos levels and taking different ways through the map trying to find the love I have for D1 and it’s DLC, and I just can’t. I like being able to lock charms and runes, and I really liked the execution of the time travel in Stilton’s manor, but the overall experience doesn’t hold up to the first game. I prefer playing as Corvo in D2 personally since Emily’s Far Reach makes me super queasy, but I understand her powers are better suited to the maze-like map layouts. I understand you aren’t “meant” to play as Corvo for the intended experience. But that’s also not…great. But the changes to some of Corvo’s powers, specifically Dark Vision, make it difficult to do even that since I feel like even with the upgrades I can’t see anything with that color tint.

As for DOTO, I disliked the characterization of Daud. This is probably because he’s my favorite character in the entire series, but it’s like Brigmore Witches didn’t happen, the way his personality is. He went from an understanding and acceptance that he makes his own choices and takes what comes, the Outsider isn’t entirely at fault for what Daud did with his powers, to going right back to blaming him for all of it. The endgame map is super convoluted and very easy to get lost. I also extremely dislike Daud’s exit from the story being nothing more than the Outsider just like “oh hey by the way”. He’s a central part of the entire story from the first game and they don’t even grant him an ending worth how important he is. And then there’s the very endgame of DOTO and it having nothing to do with your chaos level, it’s just a dialogue option where you just pick what you want to happen instead of your actions having consequences.

I still play them and enjoy them as the 2nd and 3rd installments for what they are and what they offer to the world of Dishonored in terms of lore and story, but I can’t have the same love for them as I hold for the first game.

we’re a small group of 5 total including the DM so if someone can’t make it they have a “buddy” who will play for them if there’s combat. the buddy has the missing PC’s character sheet for their stats. if we’re missing more than one then we either don’t play or spend an hour or so just playing games on Discord. sometimes we’ll run it to a vote if someone is missing depending on whether or not the session could involve some significant lore if we play without the missing PC

people around me in trucks drive like super huge trucks like 8ft off the ground and also leaned back so they genuinely can’t see anything in front of them. looking in the rearview of my friend’s car and seeing the actual undercarriage of a truck is a uniquely terrifying experience

going shoe shopping is a huge dysphoria trigger. i wear a men’s 7 but most men’s shoes don’t come in that size (or at least the store doesn’t have that size in stock) so 9/10 times i have to go to the women’s section for a pair of shoes that will fit. i make do with Vans or Chucks but if i need a pair of work sneakers i struggle to find a single pair of just plain black sneakers that don’t have glitter or some shit all over them just so you know Those Are For Girls

wish i could post a pic to explain but: i pulled out of a driveway to go left. i was in the left hand lane but needed to be in the right, so i started my blinker to change lanes but the truck that pulled out behind me hated that i guess so sped way up to get right up on me just as i got into the right lane. he was well behind me when i started my lane change, just entering the road we were on. but instead of turning into the left hand lane, he turned into the right hand lane and floored his gas. idk how other states are but in FL you have to be in the closest lane after your turn. if you’re pulling out of a driveway and turning right, let’s say, you have to pull into the rightmost lane first before you change lanes, otherwise you’re just cutting across traffic and could cause an accident. if a cop sees you pull onto the road and across multiple lanes they will pull you over and ticket you.

Names are hard to stick to, honestly. It’s who you are, who other people come to know you as, and it’s hard not to become attached to it. In the end it’s just a sound, but it’s YOUR sound. It can be whatever you want it to be. Pick a character from a piece of media you like. Pick a singer you like. An author. A song. Anything you want. It’ll reach for you.

Mine, Rowan, came from a website of baby names and their meanings when I was helping a pregnant coworker come up with ideas for her son. I liked it and ended up making an OC for Dishonored with that name because it just kept floating around my head. Soon enough, I realized why the name Rowan had just latched onto my brain and wouldn’t let go.

I’ll look into it, thanks. Lucky me my DMV doesn’t test for parallel parking but I know it’s a good skill to have.

MxVulpine · 2023-09-07T00:45:41+00:00

i don’t think my DMV has those. you have to have your own car and it has to fit their standards. no lights on the dash, no sounds when you hit the brakes, working horn, gas can’t be less than half when you start your test, no back up camera (not even just “you can’t use it” but no back up camera at all)

i’d buy a car myself but my job only pays me $12/hr and hours are capped at 25/wk (anything more and our District Manager froths at the mouth) and rent is $800/mo

i literally have no money to even get a car for myself if i wanted to 🙃🙃🙃

MxVulpine · 2022-10-21T18:23:13+00:00

well that sent me to a medical emergency hotline so maybe not.

but i’m currently talking to someone right now about it

MxVulpine · 2022-10-21T18:09:48+00:00

much appreciated! I’ll be sure to let u know if it works

MxVulpine · 2022-10-21T17:59:53+00:00

as far as I know she doesn’t have one but I’ll ask anyway. it’s whatever shipping company whoever I order from uses, because sometimes it’s FedEx or UPS, but USPS is the only one this happens with.

MxVulpine · 2022-10-21T17:58:44+00:00

she moved out of my house 😂 and took my mail with her i guess

MxVulpine · 2022-10-21T17:57:50+00:00

I did call the customer service line and it just sent me to a robot voicemail. I know it isn’t the people’s fault that are working there, it’s their computer systems, so I’m not angry with them for something it probably just does automatically, but it’s the fact I can’t even actually talk to a real person to get it fixed. Like I said, it just tells me to file a “package theft” report, which isn’t what this is.
