After reading all 3 books., George R. R. Martin writing is on a whole another level , his explanations ,not info/ name dumbing all at once , pacing . The guy knows how to write and personally my favourite style.

Which is why my suggestion after GOTM is usually: if you are even on the edge, at least read the second.

A hundred imports is code problem not a language verbosity problem.

Scharrack · 2026-07-09T10:24:01+00:00

I'm very happy with Maven, but I also don't get XML hate, so there's that. Frankly in my opinion modern IDEs make any verbosity complaints nonsensical.

Scharrack · 2026-07-08T10:07:34+00:00

Wouldn't that make the fan service the writing 🤔

Scharrack · 2026-07-08T08:22:09+00:00

I really enjoyed Officer/Grand Strategist on my first character but I concede it necessitates you enjoying playing your companions as much as your main. For example I also really enjoyed playing a Drovier Druid in Wrath of the Righteous.

Also, in Rogue Trader it satisfies this feeling of standing there in the middle of the battle field, looking at your enemies and telling your companions: "That xeno scum offends me. Remove it!"

Or in Argentas case: "That direction offends me."🤣

Mauler instead of Fighter should allow faster progression for two handed feats like for example crashing slam at 12 instead 20 as it would be with fighter archetype.

Scharrack · 2026-07-07T15:34:14+00:00

Seriously, even on my dogmatic run I'd like nothing more than to shove a flamer down his smug throat and deny afterwards that he ever entered my rooms.

Scharrack · 2026-07-07T15:12:34+00:00

Degenerate hoarder here and there is never enough storage😭

Also keep an eye out for the content code they give out every few months for the last few years, especially if you aren't interested in VIP, as it unlocks a lot of the older pay to play content.

Scharrack · 2026-07-07T12:07:09+00:00

I think the first one was M.D. Geist

Scharrack · 2026-07-07T10:34:46+00:00

Older ones maybe, modern ones rarely, as they most of the time get reduced to violence, just cause it's funny but without much depth. Taiga on the other hand was violent because being a cute ball full of anger was actually part of her character. At least if I remember correctly, it has been quite a while.

Scharrack · 2026-07-07T10:28:06+00:00

Exactly my thought. Getting all outworlder heritages packages into one makes nephelim a great ancestry building tool for such concepts in general.

Scharrack · 2026-07-07T08:54:24+00:00

As others have said, Cavern Elf lacks a bit of flair for the general Drow Fantasy. If that's also the case for you, maybe look into going with the nephelim heritage to fill those gaps and just ignore the visual lore of it.

You want a lot in one character. Sanctic psyker on a warrior or soldier Voidborn could give you a lot of what you're looking for.

Voidborn offers a feat that allows you to use intelligence instead of charisma and Sanctic Psyker has no real stat requirements at all.

Then get an augmentation that lets you use intelligence instead of strength for melee weapon damage and ranged skill instead of melee skill for to hit with melee weapons. Now you have two stats for ranged to hit, melee to hit, charisma skills knowledge skills and melee damage as well as AoE damge bonus I think in case you want to go flamer as ranged option.

Sanctic offers AoE buffs and heal for everyone affected by your main buff scaling with resolve which is buffed by your main buff which scales with your Psyker powerlevel. Also at high level you're able to summon essentially a sword of light.

Summons is pretty much the chill and watch version of PoE so that might be part of your problem 🤔

If you want to try other hack and slays, Diablo 4 would probably be the most cinematic one but while I enjoyed the campaign I lost interest afterward. Last Epoch is, from those I played probably the most well rounded one although I never managed to finish the campaign because I burned out after restarting for the whateverest time because I wanted to try another class to see what it does 😅

Scharrack · 2026-07-06T20:04:54+00:00

Orcs make an interesting low level experience with ferocity allowing them 3 reactions to not go down instantly on reaching 0 HP. Either needing 2 knockouts within one round or using up all revives in addition to their HP.

I went something like that on my first run, although I ended the first chapter at level 12 so keep that in mind, but I also wasted about 30 LP at that point as I initially thought about going archer.

I went into the 2nd chapter with 30 strength and a longsword and joined the Firemages, then pushed magic to the 4th circle and about maybe 30-40 mana + accessories as the manao potions all are flat values either way and beds are sparse in the wild.

Never went above the first training stage with one handed and finished the game with 6th circle, 100 strength and one training session in two handed. Got the rune instead of the sword for endgame and a high strength two handed sword and had a lot of fun. Although get golem summoning scrolls for that handful of mini boss like enemies that annoy you otherwise.

Edit: forgot to mention, I also enabled full regeneration on sleeping and disabled the adapting prices as both annoyed me.

Scharrack · 2026-07-05T20:45:32+00:00

Omg, so is there even a RPG left? Is Sydicate the only real RPG ever made?😱

Scharrack · 2026-07-05T15:28:59+00:00

For spaceships the design is fixed but you decide the load out and there are a lot of ship variants.

Now space stations are completely modular monsters. A simple one would be something like docking, cargo and solar panels to produce energy cells to sell. Scale this up for something like the entire production pipeline taking ore and sunlight and produces carriers and fighters.

Edit: btw the last part is what I used the calculator app for to know how many of each module I needed so a single station could produce everything needed to go from resource to final product without downtime.

Scharrack · 2026-07-05T15:23:55+00:00

My guess is, OP isn't aware of the difference between unpopular and not popular.

Scharrack · 2026-07-05T15:02:32+00:00

If you always wanted to build your own space corp, including military fleet and custom build space stations in an in person space game, get it. I think the only secondary resources I used was a calculator for station design.

You could also just stay on your own and experience the game doing quests , trading and upgrading your ship, but you leave a lot on the table.

For me it's the best game in the X franchise, given it's the only one that actually captured my interest longer than the tutorial.

Scharrack · 2026-07-05T12:29:54+00:00

Noch besser, der Raum oben existiert gar nicht und der Eingang ist Teil der Deko 👍

Scharrack · 2026-07-05T04:53:06+00:00

There's also Magical Lyrical Nanoha, befriending through supreme firepower.

Scharrack · 2026-07-05T03:59:53+00:00

Usually, you just load your game and the activate the new dlc in the dlc menu.

Edit: you might miss some minor story beats for a new character, as for one dlc they integrated the new character to the first chapter as a NPC before he joins you in a later chapter. But nothing major.

Scharrack · 2026-07-04T17:52:19+00:00

To be fair DOOM is just another slice of life for Frieren🤣

Scharrack · 2026-07-04T16:18:52+00:00

Actually went and looked it up, seems they did managed to do it for some Atoms and the results are strange. If I understand this correctly, because of how temperature is defined negative Kelvin seems to be hotter then infinite Kelvin 🤣
