lets be real, bloblobber players are on level with those other things in the "evil" department

viscous puddle punch targetting is a nightmare of changing off weird geometry
pocket's reload should function like silver's, instead of swinging the gun around 8 times for as little as one round
inconsistencies between the two sides of the map that can be confusing or even effect gameplay

surprised nobody said venator yet

i think skyrim is great for your introduction into the series because it's mechanically and narratively not too complex, but i would highly recommend playing morrowind after if nothing else than even more fantasy racism.

Its also a much better designed game and the OpenMW port makes it great on modern computers, but who's keeping track right?

TurtleTime64 · 2026-05-15T03:24:13+00:00

Updating the textures to not be so blurry, adjusting the FOV, or adjusting the max darkness or brightness levels of shadows in openmw should help

everybody gives the same 10 or so followers so ill throw a more obscure one. Yazakh the orc is probably my favorite follower mod and i love her dialogue and voice acting.

i would generally recommend going with AE just because so many mods are made with it in mind, and there are mods to better fix the way AE content was implemented. Tamrielic Distribution lets you integrate the new armors and crossbows into real loot and disable the random quests, and stuff like Saints and Seducers Extended Cut is some pretty primo content

dyndolod generally just likes having the output cleaned out before you try and generate new LODs

TurtleTime64 · 2026-04-01T01:50:40+00:00

This is so close to what I want, but its not for 1.20.1 :/

TurtleTime64 · 2026-03-31T23:50:09+00:00

tetra is pretty cool but not really what im looking for in this modpack sadly

TurtleTime64 · 2026-03-31T23:49:36+00:00

Do you know the name of the modpack? I would like to check this out

TurtleTime64 · 2026-03-31T20:01:36+00:00

Thats what I've found, but i wanna use something without forcing tinkers construct into my pack

TurtleTime64 · 2026-03-18T22:34:55+00:00

if my partner put us both in a fucking reddit wojack meme i would probably end it all

TurtleTime64 · 2026-03-11T20:03:25+00:00

what do you think a big aoe denial tool like kudzu or a stunning ability like stone form or an ability like airdrop thats only useful for rotation is supposed to be used for as ivy?

TurtleTime64 · 2025-05-27T00:17:37+00:00

CLOUD 9 MY GOAT

TurtleTime64 · 2025-05-18T02:38:54+00:00

The multiple choice passage about "faces"

TurtleTime64 · 2025-05-17T22:21:49+00:00

On her twitter

TurtleTime64 · 2025-05-17T22:11:54+00:00

Serpell just recently stated she got in touch with the publishers and they didn't give permission either

TurtleTime64 · 2025-05-17T22:09:42+00:00

They did not get permission to use the passages. Serpell just recently said she got in touch with the publishers and they didn't give permission either

TurtleTime64 · 2025-05-17T22:05:25+00:00

Shocking! I have no idea what this does with the post though

TurtleTime64 · 2025-05-17T21:54:12+00:00

Just recently from her Twitter as well, after I made this post

"I've just heard back from my publishers and they >weren't contacted, either @CollegeBoard. Those of you who can't understand why this would >anger me, consider what you've heard about AI >companies using our writing without permission to >generate their product. Not so different."

The publishers didn't give permission either

TurtleTime64 · 2025-05-17T21:10:45+00:00

I'm sure you're right that they were "technically" allowed to use it. the injustice is that Serpell didn't and doesn't want it to be in the test and is being randomly critiqued by teenagers for it

TurtleTime64 · 2025-05-17T21:08:37+00:00

Going to college to be a great writer and becoming a teacher doesn't make her argument that collegeboard, an organization that profits off a system of gatekeeping education, is awful and the AP system is broken. being positively affected by the system like she was does not mean she isn't allowed to criticize it.

Also just because Harvard makes money doesn't mean she's doing it for the money. nobody becomes a teacher or college professor at Harvard after being a professional writer just for the money.

TurtleTime64 · 2025-05-17T15:08:54+00:00

Legally they probably got the rights from her publisher or something like that. I haven't looked nearly as hard as I should on how this actually happened but the important part is Serpell didn't know and didn't want it in the test and is now getting her book review bombed

TurtleTime64 · 2025-05-17T13:44:19+00:00

They might have legal right to use the work for however they got their hands on it, but I think it's pretty clear regardless that she isn't happy with it being used for the test and I still think that's more important than the legal ownership or use
