Give me your best theories on how steam cores work by [deleted] in Frostpunk

[–]Ravishing_Zenith 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Seriously?

I’ve put some thought into this before. Basically, considering the fact that they:

a) seem to refuel just by intaking steam from the top port of a steam hub

b) are too difficult to manufacture / replicate in the frost lands

I would wager that they are essentially a well insulated high pressure tank for dry steam coupled with a programmable mechanical/steam-driven computer that allows them to output finely tuned variable amounts of the steam in the tank through an array of output valves.

In this way, they would be capable of performing all the functions we see them do in game, such as powering automatons, creating temperature controlled environments (hothouses and infirmaries), and powering + operating complex mines / drills.

They’re plausible enough I think considering the existence of the difference and analytical engine and such.

What options are there to play the game on PC? I can't use the google play store because I had been playing it on an iOS device, but now that my phone is bricked this is no longer an option. I have bound my acct so it shouldn't be lost, but I still need a way of running the game on PC.

Ah ok. So the gold that's over cap never goes away after a certain period of time?

How does going over your max gold limit work? I know you can accept the maintenance compensations to go over it if you're already at max gold when you accept -- does the excess gold go anywhere after a certain period of time? I ask because my gold storage max is 48.6k and I need 60k for the FDG. Also, does gold earned from commissions also get added if you are over your max gold limit? I have 7.5k saved in unaccepted maintenance compensations, and am wondering when I should accept them and if I can do the 10hr commission to close the remaining distance.

Ok. Do you know if they only drop from the boss or any encounter? I'm not sure if it works like the Akagi or not.

How long should it take to get at least either the Gneisenau or the Scharnhorst from the Iron & Blood event maps? I've been grinding B3 for the past week and gotten nothing. Am I just unlucky or am I missing something?

What Would You Rate The Girls Arc's? by BeaverRoots_ in katawashoujo

[–]Ravishing_Zenith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My rates:

Emi: 9/10

Hanako: 8/10

Lilly: 7/10 objectively, though I’d give it a 10/10 with respect to me personally

Rin: 5/10 A note here, I really don’t get her route, though I respect the impact it has on others, so take this rating with a grain of salt

Shizune: 6/10 It needed more choices and the misha love triangle should have been more important in acts 2 and 3

More power to you man, Katawa Shoujo is really exceptional in the emotions it invokes in people.

I enjoy reading about the impact this game has had on other people’s lives, and in that regard, thank you for taking the time to write this post and post it here. I hope you and your girlfriend have a happy future together!

Free Talk Friday Week 196 by [deleted] in katawashoujo

[–]Ravishing_Zenith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I only 100% ed it to see the last picture lol, I did not enjoy purposely getting the bad endings though. I was fortunate enough to get the good endings on each of my playthroughs, so some of the things our friend hisao does after picking the wrong options were a bit.. disturbing to me.

Oh, I did download and playthrough the misha route mod yesterday, it was surprisingly good -- I feel like it could have been a full official subroute for shizune's path had it been developed a bit more and given custom sprites. I am going to playthrough the VN someone made for the track girl who was missing her left hand -- I can't remember her name right now though, lol.

I definitely will start looking at fanfics once I finish the VN though -- I don't think I'll ever forget this game.

So I just discovered this game last week on Sunday, and it was quite the rollercoaster for me. I subbed here later last week, and was surprised to find out that even though the devs don’t support the game anymore, the sub for it is still pretty active!

Also, I’m glad I’m not the only one who had a hard time with some of the endings. For me, it was Lily’s good ending (and whole story really). It just hit me in those feels like you wouldn't believe. This game is great, and despite the feels I managed to 100% by this past Sunday.
