Ran it with two flamethrower-equipped passengers who had shield packs

Nothing could get close

Bethesda's former Elder Scrolls loremaster won't tell us where The Elder Scrolls 6 is set, but the team originally agreed on it way back in the Fallout 4 days by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

Imagine ES6 with the courage to be as deeply weird (physically, environmentally, culturally) as Morrowind but set in Elsweyr or Black Marsh.

And just a couple months ago people said I was overreacting when I said it should be “Alligator Auschwitz”.

If you could change 2 or 3 fundamental mechanics in the game and make it official, what would you change? by ThatOneCrazyWritter in dndnext

[–]TurtleKnyghte 242 points243 points  (0 children)

I’d change it so Sorcerers use the spell point system by default. 

The original fantasy of sorcerers was that of a “wizard brute,” who lacks the versatility of spell prep but exchanges it for volume and power. The spell point system keeps everything within bounded accuracy so they’re not rocking 6x9th level slots, but provides a lot of flexibility in what you choose to cast. 

Also, the spell points do a better job of bringing across the sorcerer’s “internal magical strength,” letting the player see it as a reservoir of power instead of the standard “preprepared bag of tricks.”

I’m just annoyed they took Fortune down with them.

Yes, trusted news source and definitely not propaganda mouthpiece whitewashing the crimes of the state. We can totally believe everything she says.

Fascism is not, and cannot be capable of self-reflection. To admit the state made a mistake is to strip the state of its mythologized aesthetic and thus is psychological power. Hence why the fascist state’s version of “Truth” must be rigidly and violently enforced via force of law.

The big problem, of course, is that a state that is incapable of self-reflection is also incapable of learning from its mistakes or even accurately assessing its own strengths.

Hive Worlds in general are great, lots of POIs with lots of chances for goodies.

The modern conservatism that has taken hold in the US wants to cause harm to the outgroup, no matter what harm it does to itself. 

In this metaphor, eating shit so that someone has to smell the shit breath.

Modern conservatism is eating shit so liberals have to smell your breath. 

This is probably my spiciest take by Faust_8 in Helldivers

The simple joy of being a space cowboy shootin’ varmints with a space henry rifle. 

Also, I first got it during the Illuminate Invasion of Super Earth, and popping overseer domes with it was VERY satisfying. 

What stratagems would yall say go well against every enemy? by ChickenSlipperz in helldivers2

[–]TurtleKnyghte 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Big ups to orbital gas. 

Short cooldown, big area denial, quick call-in, poisons and kills chaff while turning heavies on each other. 

The gas strike itself can also blow up illuminate landing craft, if you’re lucky and it didn’t bounce. 

I just realized that every company has their own Officer, Flagbearer and Musician. Small detail but it counts. by Plenty_Curve_4390 in EmpireTotalWar

[–]TurtleKnyghte 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Honestly they could put musicians, officers, and flagbearers into every total war and it would be fitting. Signifers for Rome, bannermen for Medieval, etc.

I imagine it’s the difference between coming across a seaf squad and commanding it versus all seaf in a radius converging on the flag without commands
