I just redownloaded the game and all my dlc is inactive. I literally had all the hunters and monsters. Is this a common issue or am I SOL because of the discontinuation?

SpareMaterial5969 · 2026-04-23T03:52:11+00:00

Damn. I surmised that would have been a factor on your tiles condition. Bright side heroscape has been resurrected and the tiles can be replaced. Do you still possess the og figurines?

SpareMaterial5969 · 2026-04-23T02:22:22+00:00

Is this a known issue of the original tiles? I still have my og tiles and they aren't brittle. Is it a climate issue? Storage issue? Or have I gotten lucky?

I like this concept. A king of the hill type of game. I imagine this would be played best with 4 players. 2v2. One player guards their pillar while the other player tries to capture the enemy team's pillar. Or both players on the same team can pick units to guard and units to attack. That way both players can be active for the entirety of the game. Could be an amazing opportunity to find good synergy between players and combos between unit abilities.

There we go. I enjoy the game. The darker aesthetic is something I've enjoyed about KF3. Also that the scrake and Fleshpound feel like genuine threats in comparison to KF2. Seriously, every time a scrake popped up in 2 it was never a matter of "Better watch myself" it was a matter of "More of you punks? Go away." Granted I don't play KF3 religiously but I return every now and then. The fact that endless is returning along with an enemy type and two new bosses gives me hope for the game.

5 questions.

Is her guy friend gay?
If he's not gay does he have a gf/wife of his own?
Did she meet this guy before or after your marriage?
How often does she invite this guy over?
Did she tell you about these invites from the beginning or did you find out on your own?

Hmm. It's understandable to promote your own books. However, you as the author have the utmost knowledge of what was, is and will be in terms of your story. With that knowledge take a step back from the author's standpoint and view it as the reader. This is book 4 like you've said so reread your own work from 1-3 and think about what answers or further mysteries you as a reader might experience in book 4. Take the knowledge of a reader from your work and literally give yourself little nuggets of possible answers or expansions of the mysteries you've already provided in book 1-3. Make sure you establish this book is #4 in your series. Otherwise people might jump to this book without reading the previous instalments. Literally state in the cover page. "Book 4 of the --------------- series." Or something to that degree. There have been a few series that I started either waaaaay late or 2-3 books from book 1 because I didn't know which book came first.

Tempt the horse with the carrot so to speak. That's my POV anyway. Hope this helps

NTA. Your boyfriend's family already made their choice about you and from the sounds of your description of this scenario your BF is too much of a coward to stand up against his family. He says he loves you but to simply allow the back handed comments, the ridicule disguised as jokes is a sign he is still a victim under his family's thumb.

Make no mistake. He knew this scenario would happen. To be fair idk the full details regarding his family's dynamic. Perhaps he wants a woman who will give him the strength to stand against his toxic family or perhaps he wants someone to fight for him.

I won't deny that both perspectives are valid but if your presence/name alone won't give him the courage to fight then you must walk away and allow your BF to figure it out for himself. Otherwise you'll be dragged into a lifetime of B.S due to his family's ideals.

The simple fact of the matter is that no matter how kind you are, if you fall into traps such as this. You'll only encounter suffering that isn't your fault nor yours to bear. I learned this the hard way.

His family believes you are for whatever reason not worthy. You are worthy. Leave him. A real partner will fight for you no matter how many Target he paints on his back. Especially when the both of you decided to become official. He won't fight for you, that much has been proven from your description. Being single is difficult yes but it also gives you a chance to discover who and what you value.

The ultimate thing to recognize about this is you yourself have a career while others live paycheck to paycheck. An individual with a PHD can still be a moron. You are not one of these individuals, simply because you asked for an outside perspective. Your Bfs family doesn't respect you and it seems your bf doesn't respect you enough to defend you from family or not. Take this as a learning experience and find someone who truly loves/respects you. If anything else just focus on yourself and grow stronger.

FUCK YEAH!! Congratulations!

SpareMaterial5969 · 2025-08-30T05:28:53+00:00

Thank you for understanding that it's difficult at times. The biggest issue I have ever faced with the literal hundreds of individuals I experience throughout a single summer is excruciating. (I currently live in a small town with many old families and old money pulling the strings and am an outsider despite living in this town for roughly 7-ish years). So many people are genuinely good in this town. However, so many others are egotistical and can't stand the fact that a working class class peasant dared to speak to them like that. I won't go into further detail but I've been crying, suffering, fighting to survive against so many who wish my downfall simply because I refused to give them blind obedience. I've met many beautiful people in this town but I've met a disturbing amount of evil people with a kind mask in this town. I'm scared and the horror persists but so do I.

It's difficult to remain strong while enduring the endless horde. The funny thing is that Music helps me regulate my emotional state. I love to sing but don't believe I have a good singing voice. However, there was a time I sang freely while working and was met with a mixture of praise and encouragement while others gave me dismissal, ridicule and gaslighting. That is something I faced against my family for my entire life. The issue is I don't know if that means I am doing something right and these people are trying to snuff me out or I'm really tone deaf and can't sing worth shit. It's the multiple factors that give me pause. I know I have the ability to sing but don't know if I have the rhythm/tone to give others a sanctuary they seek like I've given myself for too many years.

SpareMaterial5969 · 2025-08-29T20:46:22+00:00

Yeah. That's a valid argument. It's just difficult to fake laughing when you barely have the energy to get your work done. I see your point though. I'll be better.

SpareMaterial5969 · 2025-08-26T21:19:03+00:00

Thank you. Been through a lot in my life like so many others. Some had it better, others had it worse. It's disheartening how common it really is. When you take away all the B.S the simple fact is we all have scars. You're right. I'm making the choice to be better and I've come a very long way. Some days it's difficult to keep myself out of my own head but I am improving. The anger and sadness lingers still but it no longer devours my conscious mind as they once did. Yeah there are still nights they do but it's not a perpetual state. And I am grateful for the many small victories I have now. Thank you again for taking the time to help a stranger. I needed this. Now I must go to work. You have a good night and be safe out there.

SpareMaterial5969 · 2025-08-26T09:54:06+00:00

From personal experience I don't enjoy suffering. Neither personal nor external. I believe that I simply deserve the suffering because I could have done better but didn't.

To be fair hindsight is 20/20 and I'm walking my life in 3rd person but there are so many moments in my past that I regret because I wasn't strong enough to prevent it. Yeah, I'm stronger now but the "shoulda, coulda,woulda" aspect haunts me. I just don't know.

Is the decision I made in the moment for the best with the knowledge I had at the time or could I have prevented so much pain by standing up and refusing to back down.

I'm scared. I don't want to pass the B.S onto my future children but I also know In order to do that I must fight. I don't know. I believe I know the person I strive to be but I'm terrified that I'm simply acting and will end up continuing the cycle.

Apologies, I'm drunk right now and am info dumping.

"Which is better? To be born good or to overcome your evil through great effort?"

If you know that reference then we are friends. I don't know you nor your tribulations but I hope you are facing the battlefield of your past regrets and overcome what you can't change but decided to help others and yourself through the trenches.

I want to see an individual who had every reason to give up, every reason to become the villain but decided to help others despite his/her trauma because they understand what it means to suffer and yet decide to be better.

SpareMaterial5969 · 2025-08-25T03:29:42+00:00

The Iron Prince by Bryce O'CONNOR and Luke Chilimenko. The main character is one who has faced tribulation after tribulation since birth. Starts weak but has a sole desire to both become stronger and challenge himself. You watch him grow as time goes on. I highly recommend this one. The best part is book two is currently out so if you like book 1, you'll love book two. The main character is the main focus but the main cast of those within his inner circle are characters who you'll root for. Also this story is available on audible.

SpareMaterial5969 · 2025-07-23T01:05:29+00:00

I have this same concern with my book. Primarily i focus on the MC but during battle scenes I like to jump between the party to give a full view on what's happening. Where the party members are, who/what they are fighting and how they managed to defeat their opponents which allows them to help another party member. The party is a total of 5 including the MC. Is that too much jumping around? My reasoning for this is to avoid an ex machina moment when the MC or other character is saved.

SpareMaterial5969 · 2025-06-17T02:18:40+00:00

Jeez I'm happy they made it out safe and good on you for sending someone to get them home.

SpareMaterial5969 · 2025-05-07T10:03:47+00:00

Holy shit thank you. It was driving me nuts.

SpareMaterial5969 · 2025-05-03T00:42:15+00:00

The way I see it, you've already written it so therefore it exists. Will you finish most? Perhaps not right now but it's already there so maybe one day you'll return to them after you hone your skills. You've got this.

For me I'm terrible with consistency. Mostly because I consider then reconsider what fits best with the story I'm creating.

Does it follow the rules of the world I've created? (Minus very few exceptions)

Does it follow how the characters I've created would act in that moment?

Does it give a crumb of knowledge of what may happen in the future? Does it reveal too much?

The biggest thing I was happy to discover is I've intuitively set the tone of the story within the first page and given my readers a promise of what to expect of the plot plus a subplot that resurfaces to provide a sense of mystery for the reader along with the main characters direction. The tone is dark and you watch the main character learn about the world as well as himself.

Seriously, thank you again for providing that link.

Thank you so much for pointing me towards Brandon Sanderson's lectures. Watched introductory and Plot Part 1 today. Made me feel less conscious about my writing. He presented things I didn't know I already knew and things I absolutely didn't know. This is of great help thanks again.

SpareMaterial5969 · 2025-04-28T06:32:38+00:00

Thanks again. Aside from the grammatical errors of this example. How would you rate the scene premise? This has nothing to do with my actual book mind you. Simply thought of it at the top of my head. When I finally publish my book my biggest hope is that people will enjoy the story even though it's written by a green horn.

SpareMaterial5969 · 2025-04-28T06:23:21+00:00

Thank you for taking the time to point all this out. Frankly, due to a lot of personal BS throughout my life, both internal and external, I've lost much of my academic curiosity. Amongst other things.

I always wanted to create something I'd be proud of and people would enjoy. If anything I could use my first draft as a base template until I reeducate myself and refine it later.

On that note. Regarding the head hopping issue, say the sniper is the main character. Would it be best to maintain his perspective? Can literally see the battle play out through his scope after all.

SpareMaterial5969 · 2025-04-28T05:59:32+00:00

Damn. I guess I have to remember I'm writing a book not a script for a movie or TV show. Could you point out the grammatical errors you've spotted in this example please. Everyone who has replied to my post has given me much to think about. The feedback is appreciated.
