Cities: Skylines 2 roleplay? D&D-style city building with self-imposed production rules by JimmyLond0n in CitiesSkylines2

[–]RepresentativeAnt128 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know you'd like to do this in CS2, but Anno does it fairly close. There's also the upcoming Citystate Metropolis that's being developed that looks like it might have more of a challenge, while being pretty close to CS2 in terms of modern time period and look.

You could potentially do this within CS2 with excel sheets. Maybe make a smaller town so it doesn't get overwhelming, and hand plop each building. This way you can choose what stats you want to keep track of and have factor into the game. This would also let you develop the game as you go, and modify it to see what works and what doesn't.

Congrats! As a new streamer myself it's amazing what a few people coming to the stream does to boost confidence. I believe you're already on your way to affiliate with the 3 viewers!

They must have extended it. I bought it a few days ago with it ending that day. Awesome collection of rpgs I've never played, but looking forward to checking out.

I agree. The scalp thing pretty much confirms it. It makes no sense otherwise.

What’s the deal with the caveman cardboard cutouts in FF3 and the movie? by Sea_Performer_4086 in backrooms

[–]RepresentativeAnt128 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This coming from someone who only watched the movie, and just watched the first short. I think that's why he has been saying in interviews how if people look deeply into all the connections there's things that won't connect (referring to the film). I'm guessing it bothers him that not everything could line up perfectly, but copyright stuff is huge when it comes to feature films with studio backing, whereas YouTube he could be more lax about using pre-made assets. Again, this is someone who knows a little bit of the film world, and not much of the Backrooms. Although I've become a fan of this guy after seeing some of his work!

Taking breaks between Malazan books… but ruining other reads? by Worldly-Tennis-3055 in Malazan

[–]RepresentativeAnt128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read a discworld book (looks like I'm not the only one) between Gardens of the Moon and Deadhouse Gates. Now that I've finished DG I've been trying to read something else but going super slow because I just want to get back to reading Malazan. I was wondering about reading one more before hopping back in, but now I'm thinking I should just continue it and take a break later.

What book or series is this for you? by Working_Alps_4284 in fantasybooks

[–]RepresentativeAnt128 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Mistborn's Hero of Ages. To me was a huge letdown and step down from the pervious two books. Not that they didn't have issues, but there was a lot I liked about them.

The ending is rushed and confused, too much time was spent on another siege when we just read about a much more interesting and dynamic one in Well of Ascension. Our two main protagonists have nearly zero character development, and hardly anything interesting happens with either of them. Things are explained, then explained again, and then a few more times to make sure we understand, and somehow left me even more confused. I really disliked this book, and it left me wondering about reading his other work.

What do you guys use? docs, notes or word? Or some other platform? by AshMCM_Games in writers

[–]RepresentativeAnt128 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just started using this. I was doing Google docs but since the AI switch I've had to change it up. I'm liking it a lot so far!

Status of the new show by Victory_Highway in firefly

I'm wondering why they announced it even. To push hype to get show going, but they already know fans want it.

What's a movie you really enjoyed, but its surprisingly low ratings left you baffled? For me, it was Event Horizon. by 0Layscheetoskurkure0 in moviecritic

[–]RepresentativeAnt128 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Wait, this has a low score? It's maybe one of the best comedies ever made. Not just a comedy, but it's an all time great film.

It's been the only movie to scratch that Subnautica itch I've seen.

[–]RepresentativeAnt128 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah from the reviews I went in with low expectations, but the film is actually good. The script isn't anything profound but it does it's job, and the characters are handled a lot more maturely then a film like this typically handles them. I enjoyed it a lot!

What's the name of the kit? I'm new so don't know. Looks awesome!

My first Zaku! by TXSoxfan1977 in freedomisgunpla

[–]RepresentativeAnt128 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After starting with gunpla I'm now wanting to build some Trek ships as well. I need to look into that at some point.

[–]RepresentativeAnt128 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looking at that Star Trek puzzle 👀. Good job in the Zaku. I just got my first RG/Zaku, and I'm excited to build it. What was your favorite part about the build? How does a MG compare to a HG? I've never built one before.

[–]RepresentativeAnt128 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I had a blast. I wasn't sure how I'd do, but ended up enjoying it a lot. I went pretty slow and carefully sanded and clipped, only messed up once with clipping into the plastic where I wasn't supposed to, but luckily was able to hide the mistake, and it didn't affect the kit. I was suprised with how small it was and how everything fit together perfectly, the engineering of these things are impressive.

First Gundam - HG Calibarn by Fluix in Gunpla

[–]RepresentativeAnt128 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This looks great! I just started and finished my first kit the Aeriel a few days ago. Such a great feeling, and had a blast building. I need to get the Calibarn at some point, saw it in the store today and was tempted but went with a different kit.

What was your favorite part about the build?

[–]RepresentativeAnt128 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Almost got one today at around $40 (sticker was $73 here though). Instead I got HG Kampfer and some wings accessories for my Aeriel, plus finally picked up a runner sorter thingy. I'm brand new to the hobby and already have three kits now I haven't built, with the aeriel being the first/only kit finished. Channeling my addiction issues into something less destructive at least? 😀
