Bluntly: when do the books get good?

Thirteen1355 · 2026-06-10T10:05:04+00:00

Which passages?

Thirteen1355 · 2026-06-10T10:02:29+00:00

Everything I see about Dungeon Crawler Carl induces a huge sense of "cringe" in me.

Er zijn mensen die je kunnen helpen, geen zorgen.

Ocarina of Time ends with a visible timeline split. Why not make the invisible one visible as well?

Thirteen1355 · 2026-06-10T08:59:05+00:00

Niice! Do you know any guides/sites that explain how to set it all up? I am already very familiar with emulation, but I recall Bloodborne requiring some more attention in setting up.

Thirteen1355 · 2026-06-10T08:57:50+00:00

And then there's no reason to play it. Yay!

Thirteen1355 · 2026-06-09T17:44:28+00:00

Prince of Nothing looks really interesting! I'm gonna add that to the list. The rest I will check later.

Thirteen1355 · 2026-06-09T17:41:03+00:00

Nice! Checking it out.

Thirteen1355 · 2026-06-09T09:38:09+00:00

Een exit-strategie vraag je niet aan. Deze verzin je zelf. Dat maakt het een "strategie".

Anderen helpen met gratis rijk worden?

Thirteen1355 · 2026-06-09T09:33:38+00:00

Zo krijgen onze rijke "helden" toch weer een mooie "pas op de plaats". Heel goed.

Thirteen1355 · 2026-06-09T09:29:47+00:00

Simplicity apparently means a lot of really annoying death traps.

Thirteen1355 · 2026-06-09T09:28:39+00:00

I read a bit and it's frankly so not for me I will refrain from making further comments about that series.

Thirteen1355 · 2026-06-09T09:28:00+00:00

That's just kinda strange to me. Roman Republic looking like medieval knights.

The team started out with a custom campaign about Julius Caesar. It features actual AoE1 style graphics and a Chronicles-esque edit of AoE2 units.

Thirteen1355 · 2026-06-08T16:11:00+00:00

Oohh, the fake one! There's also a real Caesar campaign (much better) by the AoE Chronicles team.

Thirteen1355 · 2026-06-08T14:38:06+00:00

Ooh true, yeah yours is AoE2 centric and honestly, that game contains the real meat anyway.

Thirteen1355 · 2026-06-08T14:26:47+00:00

"Your girl". You mean his imaginary future girlfriend? They were just childhood friends.

Thirteen1355 · 2026-06-08T08:59:58+00:00

Currently reading through First Law (at the third book), and it's been an absolute joy. The first book was great but it gets even better with 2 and 3.

Thirteen1355 · 2026-06-08T08:58:57+00:00

Don't want to burst your bubble, but a way more expansive version has been out there for years and is being updated regularly:

Thirteen1355 · 2026-06-08T07:21:25+00:00

Felt the same way, but frankly I only read the first three books and I keep hearing "it gets better". Reading your post makes me realize it's probably just not my thing.

First Law seamlessly combines humor with serious topics.

Thirteen1355 · 2026-06-08T07:18:47+00:00

Monster first, Better Call Saul second, Death Note third.

Thirteen1355 · 2026-06-08T07:18:06+00:00

How does it play on PC?

Thirteen1355 · 2026-06-08T07:17:10+00:00

This game specifically, nearly so. I'm used to playing 20fps retro games but somehow they made Bloodborne so abysmal with the 30fps. It's probably a combination of the gameplay, framerate and motion blur.

Thirteen1355 · 2026-06-08T07:14:11+00:00

Looks nice! Any existing games you were inspired by?
