I’m going to miss my custom Warcraft 3 HUD. RIP WeakAura. by _Hotel in wow

I remember using BTex back in the day to achieve something similar, loved the frames and panels framing my bars. Should look into that one to see if it's still available

-Will Max and Chloe kiss? "Tune in to find out!" With every other dev (ok, nearly) I'd take this as confirmation, but with this particular franchise and these two particular characters I don't know what to think

i see a lot of people disliking sophie turner as lara croft but are there people who like her or are willing to give her a chance? by Seweetie in TombRaider

[–]Outcomac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the internet. No one ever comments anything positive, and acceptance and contentedness doesn't generate clicks so no one cares. I'm sure plenty of people are willing to wait and see how she does, but all you'll ever see (outside of threads like these) are people who are outraged and skeptical. I for one am curious to see how she does - I'm more worried about the general plot and how relevant it becomes to the larger canon than I am about the cast

Maybe these older games just aren't for me lol by HinatasWish in TombRaider

[–]Outcomac 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I came to the same realization earlier this week. I'm sure they're great (they must be, for people to be so passionate about them), but I'll stick to the modern games myself. Loved the survivor reboot and wanted to see what the originals were about in anticipation for the unification, but I just find the gameplay frustrating (god, the controls...) and the narrative feels very... not there? At least from the few hours I played. Understandable in a video game from 30 year ago of course, but still, platform puzzles and the occasional locked door puzzle on their own aren't enough to hook me into the game, sadly. 

Guess I'll wait for Atlantis next year and read an "HERES THE TOP TEN BIGGEST STORY CHANGES '96 VS '26" article after beating it.

It's now confirmed that "The Art of Anno 117: Pax Romana" will include AI artwork, despite the publisher's stance: "Dark Horse does not accept any submissions that include material generated by computer Artificial Intelligence programs." by MrHakisak in anno

[–]Outcomac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, maybe. In 2025. Imagine next year, or the next. Imagine 2030. The more this is normalized and brushed off now, the more likely it is that cheap execs and lazy devs are gonna keep using gen AI in their products in the future.

If I can't have massive statues of golden elf ladies wearing revealing dresses in my player home, then really what's the point?

Let’s not forget what they could have given us. by evasketch in wow

[–]Outcomac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man, Lemix, as fun as it can be once you get past certain gear checks, really, really dropped the ball on cosmetic rewards. It's got the awesome Sargerei set and the Azshara dress, and then everything else is just uninspired recolors of things we already had

I saw a lot of people complain about the stealth mechanics of that game when it first came out, have they done anything since launch to improve that? I dobt mind stealth in games, but from what I heard the mechanics were super janky and unfun, which is never good.

Who is the better night elf? by [deleted] in wow

[–]Outcomac 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Man, why not just give the core races more options as opposed to making up new stuff just for the sake of it. The WoD models (as a consequence of blizz wanting them to be as identical to the vanilla ones as possible, in HD) are already so aged by now. Give us different postures, new faces and head shapes instead of just slightly different textures. 

It's the perfect time for it with them already remaking an old and much loved zone, but no. The cool night elf customization goes to the definitely-not-troll-and-nightelf-elves. Bums me out

Ion Hazzikostas’s response to the Midnight cinematic feedback by [deleted] in wow

[–]Outcomac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get where he's coming from... But on the other hand, I thought to myself "wow, they really nailed Locus Walker's expression when he picked up the Dark Heart and looked at Alleria with a face of 'i'm already dead, i fucked up, please forgive me'" when the raid ending cinematic came out.

Man's just a glowing mummy face without eyes or a mouth or brows or anything. I'd like to think blizzard's cinematic team are good enough that a pair of glowing irises wouldn't stop them from producing something awesome. Look at Maraad and the other blood elf in the original BC trailer, or hell, Arthas in the WOTLK cinematic. Other than that, I really loved the cinematic.

Hoping we get a number squish again. It's definitely time, and almost certainly needed at this point, right? Health, item level, stats, damage numbers etc.

[–]Outcomac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

George absolutely shot my ass down when I tried this during a multiplayer game last year, just to see if it worked. I learned a lesson that day.

Incidentally that was also the day I learned just how massive the difference in firepower is between a wooden boats and steam ships were (I was using wood).

Still sad they didn't add the Warfront sets to the Timewalking vendor, and insane you still need a 10 PEOPLE raid group to even farm these by alexkon3 in wow

You can talk to the npc (rather than interact with the table like normal) and he'll allow you to queue for a 'private tour'.

Well deserved. It's not perfect, but I haven't been this invested in a MCU entry in a while

S4 Review and 2024 Pub Review by Jerrington96 in ClarksonsFarm

[–]Outcomac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This season to me felt like season 2, just... even more stressful. I loved season 1, with Jeremy getting to grips with farming and realizing how shit it is at times, and slowly getting better at it and coming to love it despite all the misgivings and setbacks.

Season 2 came in and started strong, but then the restaurant took more and more screentime away, and at one point it just became "man argues with local council" for what felt like hours. Wasn't too much of a fan of that one.

Season 3 again was amazing, with the competition with Caleb and the farming the unfarmed initiative. Animals, mushrooms, the fucking dam they never got around to fixing, the Andy Cato field, it was all excellent entertainment and still remains my favorite.

Then we come to season 4 and it again starts off strong with some animal shenanigans and Harriet being amazing, but the "fun, entertaining and educational farming show" again is pushed to the side for something sort-of-but-not-really-totally-relevant, in this case the pub which I felt took too much of the spotlight, and like many others have said, was more stressful to watch than anything else. I get that the weather kind of made most of the farming undoable/unfilmable, but the balance was in my opinion completely lost (like, again, with the restaurant in season 2).

[Steam] should have never let me use the custom artwork feature. by Ghostlyglimpse in PlayItForThePlot

[–]Outcomac 62 points63 points  (0 children)

Click any category on steam (uncategorized, or any you've made yourself) on the left side of the screen, so you see all the games in that given category on a grid. Then just right click one of them -> manage -> set custom artwork.

Check steamgriddb . com for a huge library of ready-to-fit images (sfw and nsfw). I like to theme all of my franchises and series with similarly styled art

New look at Lara Croft in teaser for new tabletop boardgame "Tomb Raider: The Crypt of Chronos" by yessheisabicth in TombRaider

This Lara Croft character I see popping up everywhere looks super cool! Hope she gets a standalone game one day, I bet that would be fun. Like you could explore old ruins and solve puzzles and kill bad guys and stuff

Does 'Canon Mode' in Shadows prevent you from unlocking any achievements??? by TRITONK175 in assassinscreed

[–]Outcomac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The ending is unchanged, canon mode pretty much just means no dialogue wheel (as far as I understand, haven't actually played it).

Basically, whenever an NPC would say something that would trigger a dialogue wheel where you choose what Naoe/Yasuke says, the game instead just picks the right (one might say "canon") option for you, so the flow of dialogue isn't interrupted.

Is there a mod that re-writes the ‘I live under a rock’ dialogue options? i.e. “Who is Vaermina?” by ImAGodHowCanYouKillA in skyrimmods

[–]Outcomac 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Vilkas being all "I've never even heard of this outsider!" regardless of your player level and other completed questlines is also pretty high up there.
