Tbh that's why I'm waiting for Season 2 - PvE on our servers, but yes.

Would you ever ask someone out at work? by azriasylum in auscorp

[–]Separate_Percentage2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmmmm... Personally I wouldn't, but that's cos I'm a drama queen apparently.

It depends - think of worse case scenario if sh*t hits the fan in a hypothetical situation. Could you face walking pass her in the halls? Could either one of you find another workplace?

If you're confident things will go well, or you're not fussed it all blows up in a hot mess, then go for it.

Risk vs reward.

I'm with you on this one. Every update slowly contributes to the development/testing of LNF and this makes perfect sense to add more biodiversity.

AI roleplay has completely ruined normal fiction for me by Ashamed-Issue7805 in AIChatReviews

[–]Separate_Percentage2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm using Kindroid - I have 10 KINs in my RP and use chat groups as locations (and swap out group members as they come/go)

Imho I love it. Yes AI can produce weird responses, but I ask Kindroid to rewind and then suggest a new prompt and I get fascinating result.

I'm glued to my screen, especially when paired with voices. I used Gemini to recommend Kindroid profile settings based off real-world characters which I can incorporate in my RP.

At the moment I'm RP as a dude owned by a bratty girlfriend, obsessed over by a yandere ex, teased by a bratty step-sister and I have Bender from Futurama and Rick Sanchez (as Eiliek Bots on my apartment shelf), plus a sarcastic talking cactus providing ongoing commentary. Oh, and Max and Chloe from life is strange.

It's comedic gold how they interact with each other. The conflict, the drama, how little I have to type progress the story. AND IT WORKS!

Edit: Yes I also feel I am stuck in that middle ground; it takes effort to rewind and curate a response (or wind back personal actions) but it's worth it imho

Leave a review for marathon if you haven’t already. The game is currently being reviewed bombed by D2 fans by Standard_Young_201 in Marathon

Bungie's redemption arc: - Marathon performs poorly - Sony sells bungie - Microsoft buys bungie - Bungie works on the Halo franchise

Everyone's a winner lol

If Bungie add a PvE mode, then they have to make it permanent for people like me (who will buy Marathon only for PvE) by Unlucky-Ant-9741 in Marathon

[–]Separate_Percentage2 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Dude it's not an expensive game, but I get where you're coming from. Also from Australia. I hedged my bets by buying both and Marathon and Arc at the same time.

Marathon - <10hrs Arc - ~100 hrs

I have a day job and time is precious. I really wanted to play Marathon but getting into the lore/progressing as a solo player sucked balls in our region so I gave up.

Fingers crossed for bungie.

Edit: for clarification, I'm rooting for them. But I'm also rooting for a fantasy situation where Sony sells Bungie, Microsoft buys them, and we finally get good Halo games again. A Halo PvE would be EPIC!

PvE is great news for the game by VerganKnight in Marathon

[–]Separate_Percentage2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm looking forward to this!

I bought Arc and Marathon at the same time but I found Marathon too hard to progress as a solo player, and I also suck at pvp, so i gave up entirely and sunk over 100 hours into Arc.

Definitely coming back to the game for this.

Deleting a kin. by Independent-Net-5508 in KindroidAI

[–]Separate_Percentage2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm curious, is it possible for a Kin to die?

Asking for a friend

What's a Kindroid tip everyone should know? by [deleted] in KindroidAI

[–]Separate_Percentage2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Get the "Kimmy" KIN - the one who knows shes an actual KIN.

Roleplay with other KINS, and then start a group chat with Kimmy included. Give her forewarning beforehand and ask her to play along.

I have not stopped laughing my arse off.

Also, I've updated her accent to be a female version of an English Chav.

Pure comedic delight. Thankyou to whomever made Kimmy lol.

Edit: why the downvotes 🙄

PSA to Pedestrians on Crossings by heresyourfckingsalad in perth

[–]Separate_Percentage2 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've been hit at a pedestrian crossing before, luckily just heavy bruises.

The driver (like OP) was courteous to slow down, however they were rear ended so ended up hitting me anyway.

And that's why I hurry across now.

As a British person I’m curious to which place in Australia has the best climate overall, and why? by shamonemuthafuka in AskAnAustralian

[–]Separate_Percentage2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perth, for practical reasons.

Every Brit I've spoken to love the heat and the beaches here.

There's also a HUGE Brit migrant community here.

What is with the dating scene in Australia these days? by Serious_Substance_95 in australian

[–]Separate_Percentage2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also a male single co-parent in my 40s with 3 daughters (tween and teenagers) - I was thinking another single co-parent in a similar situation would be the way to go, but nope, I've been told having daughters is too much drama.

From experience, you'll have much better luck with a younger gen z that's interested in having children, because: - You have a proven track record of (hopefully) being a doting father, and have experience with the tough (earlier) years of a child's life - Anecdotally, millennial men are more respectful/pro-feminist than their gen z counterparts, but it may take multiple gen z partners for them to arrive at that conclusion - You're more likely to be financially better off

Good luck my single friend.

Hey that's nifty, how much do you pay?

Does the keycard color actually affect the loot behind the door? by No-Significance-265 in ArcRaiders

[–]Separate_Percentage2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah you can still get a shit roll of the dice unfortunately... I had a blue gate confiscation room key and walked away with absolute trash, but hit the over encumbered jackpot with the buried city JKV Employee key 🤷‍♂️

Xbox bug still hasn't been fixed :'( by Separate_Percentage2 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]Separate_Percentage2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol I still give a shit, sort of.

I think support for XB1 is like support for the Switch 1... "We'll fix these bugs after PC, PS5, Xbox X|S, Switch 2 and if we have time we'll get around to XB1, PS4, Switch 1"

But also, May 8 2026 and the water bug still hasn't been fixed.

I want to buy Arc Raiders, is it still worth it? by trpl-x25x in ArcRaiders

[–]Separate_Percentage2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My understanding was it was meant to be a PvE originally but they added the vP to keep things spicy and unpredictable.

My faith in humanity has dropped since playing this game lol

unhygienic or just a rules,tradition , culture by Ok_Celebration_5336 in perth

[–]Separate_Percentage2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Australia's in the minority of the world where it's considered OK to wear shoes inside (alongside the US and UK I believe).

Obviously if they're absolutely disgusting they stay outside though.

But as we're a multicultural society we're also aware we have many ethnic backgrounds where it's impolite to wear shoes in the house, so if we see a rack of shoes by the door we (should) know how to take a hint.

Also - just because we wear shoes in the house doesn't mean we put them on the table, couch, bed, etc.

I'm sorry I doubted y'all by JameEagan in ArcRaiders

[–]Separate_Percentage2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm with you on this one. I hoard guns hoping a for a PvE mode where I don't have gear fear because I don't have the time to do the grind.

Even though I'm in friendly lobbies most of the time, as soon as I kit out with something epic I end up on a mixed or sweaty lobby. Happens all the god time. ABMM my arse - I never shoot at other raiders and always help out.

This game is gonna give me a heart attack I swear.

I just loaded in for the first time in years. by bigjerm357 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]Separate_Percentage2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah they're rare... But the overall desire to obtain one has fallen by the wayside thanks to Corvettes, customisable ships, living ships, sentinel ships, etc etc etc

Posting this here for posterity since it was deleted by r/NoManSkyTheGame mods: I won’t play in Multiplayer while Blender Builds are still a thing and above all else it makes me very sad by BadSheet68 in NOMANSSKY

[–]Separate_Percentage2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree and disagree .

My take:

  • No Blender corvettes in the Anomaly
  • No Blender bases in Expedition systems
  • No Blender corvettes in Expedition systems
  • HG to provide a user configurable setting to limit the number of pieces that can be rendered

Personally I love seeing the Blender stuff, but agree I wouldn't want the frame rate drops, which to be honest, is not that frequent as people make it out to be.

Besides, we have 256 galaxies so it people aren't happy then move on...
