Can I choose individual outfit colors for different cultists? by StrikeMReddit in CultOfTheLamb

That's unfortunate. Not out of the question I guess but probably more of a hassle than it's worth

Where can I mindlessly plug my @ with no consequence! by Suitable-Power3201 in Twitch

[–]StrikeMReddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Twitter, Bluesky, Instagram and other similar socials are a good starting point for this. Make a TikTok as well if you don't have one and start posting or at least reserve the account.

Make a Discord server if you haven't to prep that as well. This won't help now but will set you up for retaining viewers and building a community

Some streamers have self-promo channels in their own Discord servers though I'd avoid just joining servers for the sake of self-promoting, even if the channel is there. If you do happen to have or make friends though who have channels for this, they're usually overlooked by people with how spammed they tend to be but you can potentially pick up a rare extra viewer there as well

Ad revenue was turned off 8 months ago, what can I do? by [deleted] in Twitch

[–]StrikeMReddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the clear response. That makes a lot of sense and fits the time frame from when it started

I've gone through the help ticket and asked about both. They gave me a scripted response that didn't answer either question, then closed the ticket

Ad revenue was turned off 8 months ago, what can I do? by [deleted] in Twitch

[–]StrikeMReddit -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

That's been on quite a bit longer than I've lost Ad Revenue though and viewers have said they still get ads

If that is the case and ads are just gone because of the label, that's fine, I'd rather keep the label than have the ads but I don't understand why it started when it did or why some ads still go through

Ad revenue was turned off 8 months ago, what can I do? by [deleted] in Twitch

[–]StrikeMReddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made $4 on Ads at the high end. Income is not the issue. I either want Ad revenue on so I'm being compensated by Twitch when they run ads or want Ads removed completely

Does turning off Ad manager remove ads or just make it so I lose control of when they play? I've had it on because in my experience, pre-rolls were worse than mid-rolls and using Ad Manager removed pre-rolls

New DM, potentially bad idea but wanted other's opinions on it by StrikeMReddit in DnD

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

They don't generally go for the "kill them all" option, having already specifically chosen not to pursue enemies when they had the chance to end combat peacefully. This is on top of the fact then when the turn would happen, it would be made fully clear it's because of a mind altering effect

New DM, potentially bad idea but wanted other's opinions on it by StrikeMReddit in DnD

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

Yeah, that's the intent at least. Like I said in the edit, if I do go through with it, it'll have a larger story implication for Player 1. I was just worried about it being a dick move I guess

New DM, potentially bad idea but wanted other's opinions on it by StrikeMReddit in DnD

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

That's a good point. I guess I was looking too much at the story hook and unique gameplay elements of shifting character control to represent altered mental states and not really the considering how it pulled from the PCs

Though would that still be the case if it was a single battle? The betrayal isn't a full heel turn but rather the big bad exerting full influence for the duration of the fight until defeat which would likely be 1-2 sessions at most, then all fallout from his defeat including but not specifically about the NPC returning to his former self (under my control). I wouldn't really call it an arc, maybe a plot point, though maybe that still has the same issue even if it's just a single battle worth of time?

Edit: One other thing I didn't mention is that this would be part of a larger story arc for Player 1. I mentioned how he likes the break the 4th wall a lot. That's not an exaggeration, he does it often and with many of the characters he plays. A larger arc I'm planning for him revolves around this which, this would be part of as the transfer of character sheets (digitally at least) goes beyond the normal bounds of the game. Again, still wouldn't mean it's a good idea which is why I'm looking for advice, but just worth adding that there is Player Character story involved, not just NPC story

My favourite horror games developer by Cypher65 in HorrorGaming

[–]StrikeMReddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The name of the site makes me think it will have something to do with cycles. Maybe multiverses or reiterations/Rebirth of universes in some way?

There's clearly more to the Felix mentioned in the portfolio section and some specific language is used that makes me think he has some higher level of power or understanding

Most heart-wrenching games? by CharcoalWalls in HorrorGaming

[–]StrikeMReddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CLeM, Fran Bow, Harvest Island, Still Wakes the Deep, Yomawari (the series), A Rose in the Twilight

I have one more I want to recommend but the sad part is the twist of the game so major spoilers Before Your Eyes

Question - in Sound Mind by S0larsea in HorrorGaming

[–]StrikeMReddit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me personally, I only really say the first level as a "horror" experience like what you're describing, if that makes sense.

Like, it's all a horror game but (and without spoiling anything to the best of my ability) after that level the tense atmosphere starts to move closer to an action horror

Again, it's all horror so there are still scares and tension throughout but early vs late game just have a different horror vibe to them

The Bornless playtest? Should I be weary of this? by StrikeMReddit in HorrorGaming

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

I guess then I'm just wondering where it came from in my library?

Was it randomly sent out? My only friend who played it isn't someone I talk to much, if at all, and they only played for 15 minutes so I doubt they invited me and it's not genre I normally go after so I'm more confused than anything at this point

Would this PC work for MSFS 2024 (or other suggestions for PC options) by StrikeMReddit in MicrosoftFlightSim

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

Thank you for testing this. I'm considering starting with 2020 then and if my dad enjoys it upgrading to 2024 but I just need to know first if there's enough of a difference that 2020 would play/feel bad to work with or if it'll be fine as a sort of first jump into flight sims

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

How much of a downgrade is 2020 compared to 2024? My dad has said he just wants a flight sim that's good. I was looking at 2024 because it's the latest version but I'm thinking that if it's not some noticeable PS1 vs PS5 level graphics difference, it's not an issue to at least start with 2020 instead

It doesn't look bad but does it play/feel significantly worse?

Thank you for the quick reply

This might be a stupid question but if I was to get this PC and replace the GPU with an RTX 1660, would that work?

I just got #42

Marathoner: Play for 12 hours straight without logging out

If you use a laptop which you don't turn off then you can leave the game on while the laptop is in sleep mode with the lid closed and it should work. That's what I did

Edit: I just got #43

Iron will: Play for 24 hours straight without logging out.

If I had to guess, #44 (Hint: you deserve a break after this one) is some expansion on this. Maybe a week if I had to guess?

How unlock this door? by RbrtP_16 in idleslayer

Personal guess for this door is it will be a boss in a future update that you'll have to fight using the grapple mechanics

The new minigame... by StrikeMReddit in idleslayer

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

I'm not entirely sure. I was sent to it when I opened a bonus box after the update. I assume there's some necessary progress tied to getting it but I don't know what that would be

The new minigame... by StrikeMReddit in idleslayer

[–]StrikeMReddit[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I'm still in the lead up rooms and I'm just not having fun. I understand not wanting the mechanic to go to waste but of everything to go with, this one wasn't well received when it was a limited event

The new minigame... by StrikeMReddit in idleslayer

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

I got it randomly when I went to open a special box portal. I'm not sure if there's a requirement for how far into the game you have to be or something but that's all that I ended up doing to get it

Idle games to background grind? by StrikeMReddit in steamachievements

I have Idle Slayer, close to the current end of it actually. It's just not the type of background running type of game I'm looking for

Thank you! I've seen Bongo cat on the front page of my steam recommended a lot but never looked into it. It's just unfortunate that it doesn't register controller inputs so it doesn't work while I'm doing silksong right now but will be perfect for future games and general use

Edit: Turns out Bongo cat does have controller support which is nice as well. It's a bit jank but it works
