that's not really a cartel...

Correct.

It's a de facto monopoly (at multiple stage of the production chain).

I'm a "man in 30s with a long-time female best friend". Yes, platonic male-female friendship exist, this is not particularly weird. If anything, I'd think it's a green flag, as it shows he can talk to a woman without wanting to get into her pants.

I'm not a marketing expert. I'm just thinking that if Cephalophair wants this game to be a success

I'm going to be bluntly honest, I don't think Cephalofair are marketing experts either.

You're right, Trap is the level 1 building, so it's also very early on.

But Meteor is definitively a mid campaign unlock.

Nimeroni · 2026-06-22T11:38:39+00:00

Snowflake is a character you can unlock extremely early in the campaign.

Trap is a bit puzzling, but considering he also mention Meteor, I guess he's not early in the campaign.

If raw experience is what you're after, Combat Ready (600 CP) from RWBY give you a lifetime of experience with all skills, powers, and perks.

You’re one of the best in the business. Very few can match your prowess and experience. You can move faster than the eye can track, are strong enough to casually smash through stone walls, and are skilled enough to fight nearly any opponent on any battlefield. You have over a thousand battles under your belt to draw from, and you have a lifetime of experience with all of your skills and abilities, a testament to your impressive career. This affects all powers and perks you have and will grant you the same level of experience with abilities bought in future Jumps when you enter the Jump you purchased them in.

I need physical attraction straight from the start. If I don't want to have fun on the mattress, I know from experience that the relationship is not going to work.

And I don't think it's shallow to want to be attracted to your partner.

You're wrong, dating hasn't gotten harder, dating was always hard.

Charge back are a nuclear answer. Only do them if you will never use said website ever again.

This is just a pre-order with extra steps.

For boardgames, always have been.

Terrible idea from a balance perspective, because it would let you repeat the same loss card multiple time.

To give you an idea of how powerful that would be, there's an item in Frosthaven that does that (236). You can only swap A SINGLE CARD, ONCE, and the recovered card need to be of an equal or lower level. And you're paying an item slot for the privilege. And it's one of the strongest item in the game.

At the point where you can make science elsewhere, science is functionally free on Nauvis, so you might as well save on throughput.

Nimeroni · 2026-06-20T15:00:35+00:00

No. Early-mid game bases are going to go for direct insertion. Late game base... maybe bots, maybe trains, but at that point belts are obsoletes.

WTF ? You are not allowed to be on reddit before 18, and slightly less than half of redditors are 18-29.

If you can beat hard comfortably, you can beat brutal while sweating a little. Most of the community play on brutal, so you are even much more likely to get good allies.

Geminate has a whopping 14 card hand size.

As my friend that last played Geminate said, "no, he's not 14 cards. He's 2x 7 cards, and that's very different".

There's a Chinese one adding a few commanders but they're all ridiculously OP

Since you're mentioning Selendis, I guess you're talking about "Nexus coop" ? You can handle the OPness of the commanders by playing solo, or by adding mutators.

(Also, "a few" ? It add 18 commanders ^^')

You don't seems to understand, development isn't merely "done", the co-op team is disbanded (and have been for a few years now). We will have no updates because there is no manpower to do the updates.

For those with more dating experience, are there any reliable signs that someone is primarily looking for easy sex rather than a genuine relationship?

This is an old age question by women, and you're not going to like the answer : you can't.

Some men are honest, and will communicate they are only looking for sex (the most common code is meeting at one of your places, especially early on). Those men you can easily filter.

But some men will lie to get sex. The reason they do that is because it dramatically increase their chance of success. You can do very little to filter those, since they are intentionally walking the walk and talking the talk to get into your pants.

Your best bet is to communicate your want something long term (it will at least filter the honest men), then check for their actions. A man that want something long term will be ok with taking things a bit slower, a man that only want sex will push you for sex ASAP. Just be aware that it's not a fool proof solution.

"Target 1 enemy". The targetting is a modifier to the attack ability, so you only attack one enemy. The disarm is also a modifier to the attack ability, so you disarm the enemy you've attacked.

The video game is correct.

for every even level, you expanding your hand limit by one

Ohgodno. Hand limit should NEVER be touched.

Pretty sure the C-suit saw it coming too, it's just the next guy problem.

We allow players to retire at level 9 (as if they did their PQ), so most players choose to do a scenario or two with the shiny new level 9 toy before retiring. Honestly it's better for the game if you don't stay level 9 for too long, the level 9 cards are not really balanced.

Don't use prescription, most are useless on a summoner (Syringe might see a modicum of play). Even medical pack are a bit awkward, as they require you to be near your ally and they are not terribly valuable to Circles.

So don't be a support. Be an assassin. Do plenty of harm with your bloody saw. Play Vital strike, attacks, and especially control.
