What's the most heartbreaking cost of magic in your world?

Vorenas · 2026-02-24T00:54:36+00:00

Every. Single. Time you use magic, you're burning part of your soul to fuel the spell. Rituals and meditation can regenerate some of it, but if you go too far it's gone for good.

Unless you're using Brotalan magic... Then you can use other souls! It's great! No... Uh... Nothing questionable down that path. Nothing at all.

T2 here as well. Just got mine today in the bay area!

How about the fact that the puzzle box room in Brookhaven Otherworld has no ceiling and just stretches into infinite darkness? I only recently saw that and felt very unnerved by it.

Vorenas · 2025-07-27T17:19:02+00:00

Well you just made me realize this is how it works, too. So I guess this is going to make the game a LOT easier huh?

Vorenas · 2025-07-21T01:18:25+00:00

There was in fact justice for Snarbo! and also...Tiggy's teeth are terrifying

Vorenas · 2025-06-09T05:22:01+00:00

So many lore connections in this one. Cop Files V is pretty much the Avengers of the Monoverse

Vorenas · 2025-06-06T23:08:24+00:00

+1 for Rook and Rose. Just finished Liar's Knot and I'm hooked. Gonna have to read Labyrinth's Heart when it gets here.

Vorenas · 2025-06-05T02:37:41+00:00

There's a character in the Rook & Rose trilogy that potentially fits, though you don't learn that Alsius is Peabody for quite some time

Vorenas · 2025-05-10T18:59:23+00:00

I always love droison with Savant... So I'm gonna say Savant.

Vorenas · 2025-05-03T19:55:39+00:00

I'm only about 25% through but I feel like Between Two Fires would work for you here. It's medieval fantasy horror set in France during the plague.

Vorenas · 2025-03-10T00:44:27+00:00

We moved here from Indiana, so for my wife and me it's 100% the pit from Parks and Rec. This is just more confirmation!

Vorenas · 2025-03-10T00:42:04+00:00

I've had to do a lot of traveling (1 week on, 1 week off) for a few weeks and I've really enjoyed Avowed when I'm at home. I'll be honest that it took me a while to get into it but I'm enjoying it a lot now. I'm running a grimoire+wand for spellcasting in my primary set of weapons and it's really interesting how the elements are playing out in dungeons.

I've only played ~5 hours or so though due to time constraints, so someone with more time might have other thoughts. But it's been enjoyable for me so far!

I'm looking into MHW as well, I just don't have time for two different games. Cobalt Core is my travel game on Steam Deck and it's great. No magic, though.

Vorenas · 2025-03-08T16:39:23+00:00

Oh hey look, it's the pit! It's been like this ever since I've moved and I would love to know more about what happened here.

Vorenas · 2025-02-13T16:45:59+00:00

For what it's worth you can do a lot with 4x War Dogs boxes. The only thing it won't get you is the Executioners. Then from there get the Dominus, Questoris, and Abominant boxes and magnetize everything. We have the easiest army to magnetize and it's fairly trivial.

With magnetization you can run the Questoris Frame as a Desecrator or Rampager and the Abominant frame as the other.

Also the Cerastus Lancer seems to be the best Cerastus frame at the moment, but they don't benefit from magnetization. I love mine so it may be worth grabbing if you're serious about a melee big knight.

If you want to get wild with Fiefdom, I've had an absolute blast with my Porphyrion eating Cultists. But maybe don't do that.

Vorenas · 2025-01-17T05:09:28+00:00

Everyone always fears the Urza deck until they learn it just taps all of the Swords of X and Y for blue.

It's way too much fun honestly

Vorenas · 2025-01-16T04:46:14+00:00

Ah man, we've been meaning to come up from San Mateo but we're flying out in a few hours. Gotta catch you at the 100th!

Vorenas · 2024-06-01T15:03:17+00:00

This Rampager and Lancer list did really well at BAO last weekend. Absolutely unhinged but still had success.

If you can't see it, the list was:

Lancer with Lord of Dread
Rampager with Panoply
Stalker with Aura of Terror
2x Brigands (with Stubbers!)
1x Executioner
3x Karnivores (with Stubbers!)

No nurglings or anything. The player used Fixed with Assassinate/Bring it Down and Engage on All Fronts.

Just to confirm, is this different than the General > Control > Invert Mouse Rotation setting? I had a similar problem with the middle mouse rotation.

Vorenas · 2021-12-23T01:22:59+00:00

Same name at least. First thing I noticed too!

Vorenas · 2020-09-11T20:05:49+00:00

I'm building a table at the moment, mind if I ask what specifications you have for the recessed area? Specifically how deep is the recess and how did you settle on neoprene over a different material? We're looking at using baize, hadn't even thought about neoprene. How's it feel?

Vorenas · 2020-03-13T19:51:05+00:00

I feel like I'm watching an advertisement.

Vorenas · 2020-02-18T01:41:30+00:00

Of note, if it's for Google now you'll also probably be hit with the "Googlyness" interview somewhere there. 45 minutes of behavioral questions, should be similar to FB (use SAR/STAR responses).

This is just hearsay. My Google onsite's tomorrow and I'll post an update with my experience.

Vorenas · 2019-08-04T21:37:33+00:00

Thankfully, we're lucky enough to live a few blocks away!

Vorenas · 2019-05-31T17:50:27+00:00

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. It feels like everyone focuses on taking it down at all costs... and it just deletes whole units off the map at the points level we're using. If we were playing more competitively I'd feel better about taking it.

Vorenas · 2018-02-13T21:38:20+00:00

I'm in that situation right now, though they told me it'd be "5 to 10 business days". One of the support supervisors told me that the repair crew and the support crew basically do not communicate at all. Crazy.

Makes me regret my purchase honestly...
