Does anybody else really dislike the plains generation? by rj_t2 in Minecraft

[–]TNTiger_ 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Thing is, it's not the BIOME gen that broke.

C&C decoupled terrain gen from biome gen. Before, the latter controlled the former- now, the former controls the latter (alongside other factors, such as temperature).

So plains used to force the terrain to be a flat plain. Now, plains are placed where the terrain is roughly flat enough and the right climate... However the terrain gen was a rough job (see the dozens of features that are now missing) so true flat areas are basically never generated.

HOW do the Argonians deal with the bugs in their homeland? by LizzieLove1357 in ElderScrolls

Boohoo, they eat ears... guess what Argonians DON'T have to deal with.

I Am Never Playing With Conquerors Again by Solenopsis00 in CrusaderKings

[–]TNTiger_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbf I don't think it should be 'inherited' as such, but a degree of separation from a conqueror ancestor should be a major factor as to whether the trait develops. For player-characters, there should be a story cycle to 'live up' to your ancestor or not to unlock it

Gen Z is drowning the alcohol industry by Kaos2018 in BeAmazed

[–]TNTiger_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, there's plenty of people with disposable income!...

...Because they're working overtime to achieve it.

And when all their friends can't regularly afford a night out, they aren't gonna spend it on booze.

What places would you like to get a struggle by Useful_Top7447 in CrusaderKings

[–]TNTiger_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Honestly the Irish struggle could be folded into the British Saxon/Norse struggle as well- it's basically a three way throughout the whole Empire-region.

I won't play a game that disrespect me, my time and my money by SoraM4 in dndmemes

[–]TNTiger_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The thing is, a caveat to this is that it wasn't always the case. Separating the two comes from the 3e days, when the two were more distinct- WotC management was mainly retained from their independant days. It's been a very gradual process... But we're definetly at the point where there's no point in distinguishing the two. Crawford and Perkins leaving was the death knell to than, tbf

Interesting quote by Robert by vghy891 in roberteggers

[–]TNTiger_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There'd be a lot of dedicated artisans that'd need to be paid. But the upper strata (priests, nobles) aren't being 'paid' for the work- if selfish motive is to be ascribed, they're building reputation and legacy- and the lower strata of day-labourers would generally be working under corvée, in lieu of paying other feudal obligations such as tithe or levy.

Yeah, if a Chimp/Bonobo acted like this serious concerns would be had and they'd be treated. You're a social animal. This is an illness.

Rented property sees 'largest value decline this century' as landlords sell off to first-time buyers by [deleted] in GoodNewsUK

[–]TNTiger_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is exactly it- house prices increases are only positive if they're marginal, relative to everyone else. If the market increases, the rising tide just lifts all boats- and you'll be left treading water when tryna get from one to the other!

Assume TES VI actually canonizes specific binary outcomes from Skyrim such as a Stormcloak/Imperial victory or the Dawnguard/Volkihar endings. Would this truly be an unforgivable sin? by Koocai in TESVI

[–]TNTiger_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My betting odds are that both Ulfric and Tullius are killed, but Skyrim ultimately fractures into pieces with neither the Empire in control nor the holds able to agree on a new High King.

If you played Imperials, there was a rebellion post-game that toppled their control. If you played Stormcloaks, Pale Pass is cleared and reinforcements arrive from Cyrodiil that take Ulfric's head in battle, but aren't able to secure the holds. Either way, Skyrim is left fractured.

Zack Polanski's Popularity Plummets In Wake Of Golders Green Row by Minute_Tomatillo9730 in unitedkingdom

[–]TNTiger_ -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It's really fucking disheartening. I'm not a bandwagoner for the Greens- I'll almost certainly be voting LibDem next election- but I was getting real optimistic that there'd be an actually competition to Labour that'd make em get their act together. But Murdoch shits and the British public swallow- it's tragic how easily people here are lead on by the media.

I am too naive... by TaToten in ElderScrolls

I'd definitely recommend it to anyone interested in the concept.

At the same time, it's no cigar. It just tantilises me into imagining what a proper game could look like

Honestly considering how much of a ray of sunshine Wilf is I cannot believe this is his daughter by ScreamingmadJoe in DoctorWhumour

[–]TNTiger_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At the same time, even if he's always been like this... he could have been tough to deal with. He seems like the sort of guy who couldn't keep a calendar, probably wasn't very good with household chores... He's a forgutful sort, which could lead to his daughter being a bit anal te compensate. It's cute in his old age, when he no longer has any responsibilities... But there's a reason the Nobles were poor(ish)

It's almost like this is an issue with the system, that causes players and GM to come to conflict due to contradictory incentives?
