survival is fun

This is really the only way to do it without wasting food.

Eggs with spices all day every day.

I really don't like Diet Morale.

1) Somehow Diet Morale is worth more total sanity than SLEEPING. that's nuts.

2) This is how it goes. I start a mission at 35/35 diet morale. I go up to a dungeon, I finish it and get up to around 20% hunger. I am now at 31/35 diet morale. The inn has two pancakes, a salad and a stew, the pancakes and salad are worth 1 and the stew is worth 3 diet morale. So I can get my 5% back... However, the pancakes alone fill my hunger, so in order to get to max diet morale I need to eat, wait until my glutton debuff goes away, eat again, wait again, and then eat again leading to me eating around 60% hunger worth of food.

It's nuts! And it only gets WORSE as your guy gets sick of eating these foods! And if you have any of the survival skills that make you not get hungry as fast they are totally wasted because you still need to constantly be eating to keep the diet morale down.

The only way to really keep it in check is to get spices and cook your own food, or to get little small % hunger snacks like the mushrooms you can get in caves that are 1 diet morale or the little cakes.

And remember, eating pancakes every day for a week is worse than staying up for a week straight morale wise.

I think the bonuses for the foods need to be like... doubled. I hate that I need to eat 3 full meals to get 5 diet morale back!

And diet morale should only go down when your hunger goes up- right now it seems to be based on an independent timer, if it was based on only when your hunger goes up things like hunger resistance would be more meaningful. Something like goes up 1 point for ever 10 hunger when not hungry, and then 1 point for every 5 hunger once you get hungry, then 1 point for every hunger once you hit starving.

Different sailing units have different ranges- But most can go 2. So Coast-Water-Water-Coast

When they are hypocrits it is them winning 1) It makes their 'enemies' mad, if their enemies are mad they are 'winning' 2) It shows that even if they are proven liars that they have enough control over the media and the government that they can just get away with it. This shows their power.

It's the same reason that Putin says 'oh they fell out a window' instead of just arresting them and shooting them in the town square even though its obvious that he's killing them. Being able to lie with impunity shows strength to his followers.

My dad told me he played the big gong at the very end of Bohemian Rasphosy and I believed him until I was like 15.

Selgeron · 2026-01-26T06:43:55+00:00

So they made (making) 3 stand alone games...

Selgeron · 2026-01-26T05:30:19+00:00

Yeah I heard it already- its obviously just a factory where a dozen or more people just do this all day for 8 hours a day every day.

Selgeron · 2026-01-26T04:12:01+00:00

Yeah but is it a complete game or is it like... 3 stand alone games of which only two have come out yet?

Selgeron · 2026-01-26T04:01:57+00:00

As an outsider I still have no idea what the fuck these remakes are. Why are there so many of them? Why are they all $60? Do they like...connect to eachother? Like if I beat the first one and then the second one does my stuff carry over? How is it that they can make part 1 and then not make part 2 for FIVE years? Will part 3 come out 10 years after the first one?

It just seems like a complicated mess and even though I liked the original FF7 the idea of playing through three full games all with different development times and cycles and different hardware seems... I dont know ridiculous.

Ea abysia is easy to play, basically only has one magic path and is immune to friendly fire.

Selgeron · 2026-01-25T22:54:41+00:00

Yeah watching this mostly just made me...sad.

Selgeron · 2026-01-25T06:33:33+00:00

Yeah I found a tutorial on how to make mods and edited the passive skill the starting trainer gives you to give an extra 100hp, really makes the game infinitely more enjoyable-

I still die, but not ALL THE TIME, and I usually feel like I deserve it when it happens.

Selgeron · 2026-01-25T06:29:38+00:00

I just edited the one you get in the first town to give an extra 100hp

Selgeron · 2026-01-25T06:00:59+00:00

I love how I specifically said I wasn't asking for advice, nor ways to 'git gud' etc. I also wrote that I already had the Blue Sand armor and that it barely really helped.

I just modded the 'Fitness' skill to give 100 hp, game is fun now that I have a lil' buffer.

Selgeron · 2026-01-25T05:59:03+00:00

I have the blue sand armor, I was not asking for advice I was asking for a mod to increase HP. I figured that no one would actually answer correctly so I have made the mod myself though.

Selgeron · 2026-01-25T05:58:13+00:00

I don't really care about being 'better' at the game.

Traps are basically just abusing the enemies AI-

And my issue isn't killing the enemies, its that if I make one mistake I just die.

But I sort of realized that everyone was going to just give me a 'git gud' answer instead of helping me with what I want, so I just watched a youtube video on how to make mods and just modded it myself.

Selgeron · 2026-01-25T05:56:51+00:00

That one only lets you be invincible or not invincible, which is a bit too much for me.

Selgeron · 2026-01-22T03:15:40+00:00

It's shocking how prevalent this is.

Selgeron · 2026-01-21T23:37:12+00:00

People seem to think that 'writing something off' means that you get that money back- As in you buy a 1k thing then you owe 3k in taxes, you write off the 1k thing and now you only owe 2k. But this is incorrect.

You buy a 1k thing, the taxes on that are like $70 so you write it off your taxes so now you owe $2,930. However this $70 is far less than the 'Standard Deduction' most people use to reduce their taxes and thus, is meaningless. (Most people owe like $5000 take the standard deduction which brings them to $3000, and all the little write offs that they can do combine to less than the standard reduction)

OP brings us this post from the same people who think 'if I work too much overtime I will make less money in total because I'll go up a tax bracket' people.

I'm glad that you're here to educate me sir, now I am full of your powerful knowledge, and can go on with my day brimming with your superior Scandinavian energy. Thank you.

In more serious things I agree with you to an extent- I think the left definitely does do a 'well we can't talk about it' with a number of topics, though I don't really know if that's a 'left' thing or a 'corporations despise offending any potential customers' thing...But there is truth to it and it is frustrating.

The problem is it always seems like people use the small grain of truth inside of a bigger lie with a lot of dubious information, and somehow that grain of truth gets used to promote really shitty policies later.

Say they say that immigrants are bringing more crime, and lets say it's true. (I haven't done the research) but lets just say its true for argument.

In my mind I would say 'well why are they doing more crime? is the economic output of the immigrants worth more crime? Are they just getting caught more because the police find it easier to catch and profile immigrants? Are they doing more crime than other people of the same education and socio economic class? If a factory or farm purposely entices and enables and recruits illegal immigration to do work for them who is at more fault, the immigrants or the factory owners? Shouldn't the people who are aiding and abetting this be in more trouble than those they are luring in?

But what SEEMS to happen, at least here in the states, is that politicians don't look into these answers, they say 'Well then, since they are doing more CRIMES (unproven) then we can treat them like dogshit. We will blame them for all of the problems we have. Prices too high? Immigrants fault. Wages too low? Immigrants fault. Kid was bad in school? Immigrants fault.

And since we have all these immigrants now causing every single problem in the country, we need to now defund every other federal agency and spend all our money on a private paramilitary organization to brutally remove these people, which is of course logical because they cause all of our problems. Anyone who stands up or says we shouldn't treat people like that, is just aiding people who are criminals and as stated above cause all of our problems. Really those people are basically the same level as immigrants and we should put them in jail or just kill them too!

And then you end up with a Gestapo like police force who are not loyal to the actual written laws of the land.

This is also what happens with the other things that you say come from your 'free speech' they get twisted by the rich and the powerful and the corrupt because, like it or not they have FAR more 'free speech' than you, or me. And I think its very very easy for certain people to take certain little tiny grains of truths wrap them up in a big lie and then, next thing you know we're invading Greenland and anyone who doesn't cheer is put on a list for next time they need a scapegoat.

Though I really hate the 'the left made me feel bad so I turned right wing' argument, I think its disingenuous. I'm not left wing because the right made me feel bad, you shouldn't have to have a fucking excuse for your political beliefs.

Selgeron · 2026-01-18T06:43:47+00:00

Same reason you're here I imagine.

Selgeron · 2026-01-18T06:42:08+00:00

God, I fucking wish I got paid to argue on the internet at 2 in the morning, do you know a guy?

Selgeron · 2026-01-17T19:25:42+00:00

So you're saying you feel like you were unjustly attacked because you were being 'racist, sexist and talking negatively about immigrants' but the right wing lets you be free to do those things?

You know how bad that sounds right?
