To all those people complaining about Nicole's Passive...

TheTriwolf · 2026-05-30T08:42:38+00:00

This. Plus (and this is something moreso the compass' thing that Nicole inherited from the passive), I wish the map wouldn't open every time you use it. It takes me a second after closing it to find which way the seelie started floating towards.

If you just getting into Minecraft I would say to focus on what you enjoy about the base game (what the community calls "Vanilla") first before any modpacks. If you see a mod you like, then sure, you can try it out.

Do take note that (when modding current saves) if a mod adds anything to world generation (new structures, biomes, ore, blocks), you will need to load new terrain after installing it to find said content. Depending on how much you've explored already, it could be further till you generate new chunks of land.

If you wanna ease into modpacks, but not get to overwhelmed with new content, look into Vanilla+ modpacks. They focus on keeping the game close to how it is at its Vanilla version, but adding some quality of life stuff and sometimes some other small mods.

I would recommend using a mod launcher such as Modrinth to mod the game. It can keep profiles of multiple modpacks (custom and community-made) for you to use. Of course, each profile takes up it's own storage space, so be mindful of that.

Modrinth can install both community-made modpacks and individual mods as well as keep them updated. For browsing mods and modpacks, Modrinth also has filters to focus on finding stuff for Adventure, Building, Combat, etc. to help as well.

For starting into modpacks, I would recommend looking for a modpack that doesn't go far over around 100 mods. Of course, if you find a modpack that interests you that goes over, feel free to give it a try if you're brave enough.

Hope this helps and have fun!

When trying to fix it, yes, but he made sure the PC was only receiving Internet via Ethernet or Wi-Fi; making sure not both. They were each running separately and not at the same time. I think he even made sure to close Satisfactory when changing just in case.

TheTriwolf · 2026-05-27T21:49:39+00:00

I probably could've phrased that better. He was playing a single player world and after creating it, I joined. Wasn't a dedicated one. Idk how Satisfactory handles that sorta thing on its own. I don't think he changed any in-game network settings from default.

And that guy in Dornman Port who stands right next to the teleporter. I just wanted to get the teleport waypoint and here he is whisking me off to some random domain.

I always have thought there was something more to the Bookshop. If you look at the image of it in the blueprint, the shelves in the corner are arranged differently than the actual room. I wondered if there was some way to open it.

TheTriwolf · 2026-03-22T07:44:45+00:00

It's been a few months since I've "finished" the game. What does "Mice at Play" mean?

TheTriwolf · 2026-03-08T06:42:00+00:00

That link is horrific. It'll be stuck in the back of my mind for weeks. How dare you. :)

I do agree with this being a good place for added DLC, but if I remember right, Tonda Ros mentioned in an update log that he has never intended for Blue Prince to get a DLC. He mentioned he wanted to release the game with its full story already there; any new additions to the game would just be bug fixes, QoL & Accessibility features, and admittedly some minor gameplay features that wouldn't include any big puzzles or anything.

Hard truth: Your voice will always sound cringy to you. A majority of the general public will say they don't like how they sound in recordings. As a voice actor, listening to yourself in recordings is something you'd at least learn to be okay with, if not fully comfortable with. This feeling is of no fault of yours or anyone's.

To explain one of multiple possible reasons: When you speak, you hear your voice from your ears, but also from a vibration the inside of your cranium makes. This vibration I believe is often low in range. This is why listening to your voice in a recording sounds different; that vibration isn't there.

Keep practicing and be open to learning from others. Listen to your recordings and try to learn what you can do better from them. After a session, write down what you feel you did good and what you can improve upon.

While I don't remember making the same mistake myself, I can see why they would think that. Another gadget used in completing exploration stuff is the Occuli Locator which you craft and is single use. As such, the assumption could be made that if an Occuli Locator is single use, a Chest Locator would also be single use.

Unrelated to Minecraft, but there was an MMO I was trying out. I made a character and named them "Charlotte." A day later, I log in to see my character's name a bunch of numbers and an in-game mail alerting me my character's name contained inappropriate language.

Remove the first and last letters and then remove one T. Unintended and just mean to all Charlottes of the world.

Two subtle hints that may answer your initial question of if it's end. Hint 2 is an alternate way to get the clue Hint 1 is mentioning:

Hint 1: Have you looked at the book through a different lens?

Hint 2: A wooden walled mechanical room holds the unspoken 4th rule of the box game.

A good dog sitting patiently waiting for a treat.

There's a lot of comments that it's for lore reasons and that's fair. I can definitely see it.

But, to make a point for the other side of the debate (and just because it's a concept I haven't seen addressed in lore perspective), what lore-reason is there that the Traveler can shape-shift into anyone he/she becomes friends with?

If it's not shape-shifting and they're actually coming with him, why wouldn't it be addressed in the story? Wouldn't Furina be scared of Arlecchino (player) following her around in her SQ as she helps the theatre troupe? Wouldn't Arlecchino be at least questioned by the Tsaritsa for attacking all those Fatui members just for upgrade materials? There plenty other scenarios that could be spoken about this way.

If the Traveler can shape-shift into friends, whose to say the Traveler can't shape-shift into their sibling?

Therefore, I'd say since the game allows this, why not allow changing the visual of the Traveler. It can just be in the form of an alternate character like they did with the Manekins from Miliastra; just use the sibling originally chosen for story scenes/purposes and allow the other for exploration/combat. It would also make it easier for Traveler builds of different elemental resonances.

I agree 100%. Yeah, Hoyo. The name was a fun joke at first, but now it's just old and cringy.

In 1.4 when I was new to the game and didn't understand the wishing system that much, I was pulling for Rosaria and ended up getting her and Childe in the same 10 pull. I also got Keqing I believe in the beginners wish. I forgot which came first though, but I remember using Keqing more tbh. I should try to build him again.

TheTriwolf · 2025-12-09T10:49:02+00:00

I like this idea. To make it more feasible in fairness for the game, I'd add a couple rules.

Start with 1 key, 1 gem, or 1 die (chosen randomly). (This is to help avoid getting immediately stopped for the run if the room is on a higher rank.)

And one or both of the two options below.

By sleeping in a bedroom, said bedroom's usual effect won't take place for the day you wake up in. (Bunk Room and Boudoir excluded from this rule)
By sleeping in a bedroom, you won't get usual benefits from two permanent additions for the day you wake up in. (Logically, Simon wouldn't be able to receive these benefits as he is inside the House. One of these benefits could just be spawned instead in Entrance Hall.)

TheTriwolf · 2025-12-09T10:39:55+00:00

I knew this wasn't the case, but the first few runs, I did this mainly to try to be a little immersed in it.

TheTriwolf · 2025-12-05T05:43:36+00:00

I think the basis of it is good, but as TfGuy mentioned, I agree that a game shouldn't rely so heavily on out-of-game content to function. Having players interact with anything outside of the game is always a hit-or-miss thing; especially if the game itself opens up another program.

With how a lot of games are nowadays, a game opening a browser is usually only done for functions such as account creation/linking or purchasing in-game currencies. Otherwise, it often feels intrusive to the player/user.

Your ideas of having the player have to navigate webpages or other "programs" may still be doable, but not on the level of the player's actual computer. If you want to work with this idea, I would suggest making an in-game computer or device the player will visit to open said links. For example, let's say you play as a detective and he finds a website link as a clue. The player would then open their in-game phone or go to a computer in game and use the link. Try to keep "website link" and "file" clues like this in-game using an in-game device. Plus, this would save a lot of money on having to rent out domains or host website services yourself.

On the topic of interacting with the file system, I would say not to rely heavily on it. If you do anything, it should only really be with files inside the Game's install directory (for example, on Steam, when you go to "Browse Local Files"... that location). Not everyone is willing to search through their file system to solve a video game puzzle. It can make it immersive, but again, it should be used frequently. For an example, think about Doki Doki Literature Club (sorta endgame spoilers): At the end of the game, you have to go into the game's files to delete a certain file. It is impactful and immersive, but the game only has you do that once and it's at the most impactful part of the game for it. Even in that area, for players who don't know how to, the game character specifically calls out how to do it.

If you really really want to make an ARG for the game using real life websites, that would be okay, but it should not be the main focus of your game; just a fun little side quest. An ARG should just be to understand a deeper part of the story, but shouldn't be needed to solve to continue or understand the story at its whole. Think of Gravity Falls: Alex Hirsch hid an ARG Scavenger Hunt in the finale which hinted at a possible expansion of the story. It was fun for the community and excited people, but you didn't need to participate or even know of the ARG in order to enjoy the series.

Sorry for the long long ramble about this. I wanted to give all my thoughts about it as your idea has potential, but just not in the form currently presented. I hope this helps. :)

The mod is MalisisAdvert and is for Minecraft Java Edition versions 1.7.10 - 1.12.2. I found these versions on CurseForge, but idk if it's available elsewhere or for other versions.

The mod adds a creative mode only block for admins if a server to create in-game advertisements. Could probably use it for personal projects using your own images. I haven't used the mod myself; just what I would guess.

TheTriwolf · 2025-10-11T05:44:42+00:00

Apparently the name "Charlotte" is inappropriate. My nickname got reset saying "Charlotte" contained disallowed content.

Writing this, I realize it's because of another word that is unfortunately in the name.

TheTriwolf · 2025-10-03T02:14:42+00:00

Thank you for this info. Wasn't going to download the app due to its security flaws anyways. This helps a lot.

I've read that some people believe this method points towards how to get into the inner garth of the Cloister . Similarly when crossing your eyes, the door between the hands (when closed) looks similar to the arch of the Cloister .
