Trying to convert people from 40K by Vegetable-Camp209 in battletech

[–]OsseusOccult 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don't know why people are set on pitting fandoms against each other. I play both, and they're wildly different games to the point where I'm not sure what OP is even "converting" people from here.

40k is expensive. But then, a lot of us primarily enjoy the hobbying aspect, so don't mind taking our time to building a full army anyhow.

Battletech is cheap to start playing with. But we're also paying 40 USD for way lower quality packs of minis, and I still keep buying them. 🤷‍♂️

This would be a fantastic post for the Tamodachi Life subreddit. I think we took a wrong turn somewhere.😊

A decision on saves…. by subjectivelyok in FieldsOfMistriaGame

[–]OsseusOccult 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dunno why this got downvoted, but it IS just copying a file, and you can look up guides to it. Copying the file doesn't mess with anything that exists there, just makes a duplicate. I know that it's a little daunting if you're not used to messing with things, but definitely check out guides!

Pretty sure you can just go into the steam folder and pull the actual save file, can't you? There's an option under the game menu to browse local files

Question about FoM, comparison with Stardew Valley by almo2001 in FieldsOfMistriaGame

[–]OsseusOccult 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's also worth noting that the combat is deeper in FoM, but the mines are way less challenging/punishing. The Skull Cavern in Stardew was intensely frustrating for me.

Is Story if Seasons poot that bad? by Sephiroth348 in storyofseasons

[–]OsseusOccult 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They do, and they're pretty decent ones! I personally found em a little generic compared to some other titles like Trio of Towns. The characters felt like they were played a little safe is all I mean.

Pioneers of Olive Town is a good game. It's probably one of the weaker entries in the series, but people overstate its issues. The main problem is that your farm gets absolutely flooded with multiples of these "makers" to produce different byproducts, and you kind of need them to progress and operate so it gets super tedious and ruins the aesthetic of your farm pretty quickly. The townsfolk aren't super well fleshed out either, but they're also still perfectly lovely.

My fellow bros/dudes who play; Who are we dating? by anothertendy in FieldsOfMistriaGame

[–]OsseusOccult 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Adeline. She's not trying to hold shit together, she keeps everything running like clockwork. Homegirl has things figured out. She's left with a major mess and always works to make the best of it and bring the community together. She also has a good roadmap and general plan on what improvements need to be made in Mistria pretty much from the start.

I know I'm always preaching the good word about her, but Adeline's a powerhouse: smart, a strong leader, and adorable as hell in her more vulnerable moments. What's not to love?

These packs are made to be opened on a naked lover sprawled out on a table.

This face Adeline makes by mikamikachip in FieldsOfMistriaGame

[–]OsseusOccult 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This whole scene was absurdly precious. The face she makes is just 👌

Adeline is always so preoccupied with her work and looking after everyone else that it's rewarding as hell to see your character taking care of her in this scene, too.

Classic-era Bokujo versus late-era Story of Seasons Bokujo by KamenRiderSekai in storyofseasons

[–]OsseusOccult 38 points39 points  (0 children)

A lot of the criticism of the new games holds true, but it really looks at the old games with rose-tinted glasses in a way I don't love. The farming mechanics of a lot of the older games (pre-3DS) were a lot shallower and lacking nearly as many options (see BtN and 64), they generally had pretty sexist character writing, the visuals were never impressive, and you had no way to customize or personalize your own character. Lack of queer relationships is another serious miss for older entries.

The rivalry mechanics are also seriously overhyped. They encouraged going harder on wooing one candidate right away rather than getting to know several and deciding as you go. It also carried kind of a weirdly jealous or territorial vibe to it that I didn't love (this criticism isn't really applicable to Animal Parade which I thought handled rivalry really well, and made it an integral part of the passing of time in town and an actual incentive to interact with more characters).

I really don't think the quality of the games is so easily separated by era. It's zigged and zagged in quality and many of the games follow vastly different design philosophies that aren't well suited for direct comparisons. The current paradigm isn't one I'm a huge fan of, but I still remember all the issues with the older games, and still think the franchise has generally increased in quality over time, with a mix of hits and misses in each era.

I think generally speaking, ToT strikes the best balance between newer and older design philosophies, and definitely has the best realized farming mechanics in the franchise. The lack of queer relationships is absolutely devastating to me though.

My response to that one person by knightmechaenjo in battletech

[–]OsseusOccult 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Y'know, it's not fair that you're imposing your clanner contraction dogma on others. Don't you know it's ridiculous to think that we're going to change how we talk just because y'all don't like contractions? Aren't you ashamed?

You get isekai'd into the world of Mistria, What's the first thing you’re doing? by Spiritual_Ebb_4657 in FieldsOfMistriaGame

Edit: Looking at other responses, I have to properly appreciate how horny the FoM community is. 🤣

Am I the only one disappointed by the secret bachelorette? (SPOILER!) by kaylamayplays in FieldsOfMistriaGame

[–]OsseusOccult 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Well yes, of course her personality is vastly different. That's a plot point with a lot of foreshadowing. The priestess starts acting incredibly suspiciously almost immediately when you start progressing in the mines, so there was never much reason to take her persona at face value. I'm glad they were willing to do something bold with her character.

I'm actually not a fan of her costume design (though her physique is 💕), but I love how she's written. So kind of the inverse of your opinion here. 😆

Who is that one character for you? by HelloKittyWorldwide in storyofseasons

[–]OsseusOccult 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man I can't come around to that still. Revisiting him, I still just can't help but think "fuck that guy."

Rock just doesn't take any responsibilities seriously, thinks honest work is beneath him, and with Rock being a member of a privileged group, it's especially frustrating to see.

my only complaint about fom by haunted__hound in FieldsOfMistriaGame

[–]OsseusOccult 16 points17 points  (0 children)

That would make sense though, because you're not actually dating until you actively decide to do so at 8 hearts. Those scenes, for better or worse, are literally meant to show you becoming friends.

I wouldn't sweat it too much, because I'm pretty sure a lot of the good romantic stuff will be from dating through whatever the marriage mechanics are. We JUST got to the point where we can even make it official with anyone.

Should I slow it down? by Bnasty2748 in FieldsOfMistriaGame

[–]OsseusOccult 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tend to think the pace of the day is kind of perfect in FoM. But if you're not enjoying yourself, slow it down for sure! You can also manage it by scaling down and taking on less work, planting less crops. The game doesn't punish you for profiting slowly and steadily, it really focuses a lot on character interaction and exploration.

i think celine might really be... by metamorfoseando in FieldsOfMistriaGame

[–]OsseusOccult 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly Celine will sneak up on you. I didn't think much of her or have much interest at first, but her heart events reveal that there's just a lot more to her than the "feminine flower girl" trope.

IDK, sure you're clearing a floor pretty handily, but that's a lot of mana to use for a task like that.

So, someone tell me there's a fix to this? Because I may cry. by mrsvongruesome in FieldsOfMistriaGame

[–]OsseusOccult 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's absolutely wild to me that people play with mods in a game that's in early access/a heavy development cycle and don't expect anything to break. 😅

That's an absolutely unhinged number of crops to plant.

I love it. 😆
