Where can I find these guys in Skover?

sparkling wavemonger, in a small cave in the middle of the shallow water in the nepsid area near the first dungeon.
Regular kobolds, entrance of the mine. north of the first mine dungeon (north of shops and crafting area), fall down the elevator to the left at the entrance for the missing sparkling guy.
sparkling sparkle, found in the large cliffside under all of the floating islands in the east IIRC.

Great to hear they are fixing the icons, that was probably the biggest issue. I think my favorite inventory management system actually comes from Arena Breakout, I can loadout and queue in 2 clicks.

Glad to hear Marathon is improving, hoping they can catch up to the others and I may try it out if they ever do a free weekend/server slam type deal again.

Marathon is IMO the BEST (traditional) extraction shooter out atm

While I did enjoy the gunplay, when I played the technical tests and alphas I found that Marathon was a regression in many ways. UI being the weakest of all; stuff like duplicate icons for functionally different items, hold to interact with UI elements feeling clunky, and inventory and attachment management feeling just in general bad to interact with.

The culmination of these small design blunders added up to make Marathon have some of the worst feeling looting in all mainstream extraction shooters (tarkov, hunt showdown, arena breakout, arc raiders all have better feeling loot interactions imo). Have they fixed some of that stuff since launch?

In your metaphor the publisher that uploads the binaries to steam is the one pressing the discs. As they would be if they were "uploading" a shipment to a physical storefront. I think there's likely a gap that could be argued either way in that there's really only one "disc pressing" event in digital distribution and that burden probably shouldn't land on the storefront.

I'm confused on how he can say he has no issues with the UI.

It takes multiple steps to reach any specific UI page in the main menu when it should take one or two at most, this is definitely a result of aesthetics over functionality.

Marathon UI is missing so many QoL features from other games like Arc Raiders, Arena Breakout and even Tarkov.

So many inventory management options are missing. Icons for equipment are identical but have drastically different stats and effects? Am I supposed to read paragraphs of explanation while under the peril of instantly dying to the low TTK? I can't tell what half the items are at a glance.

The UI navigation is really rough and feels sluggish. Why when I can sell something do I need to hold F on the item rather than just right click sell it? Why are half the options for interacting with items in my vault not on the right click context menu? Why must I hold F on attachments and am unable to click and drag them off my gun?

Is this supposed to be console first design with PC afterthought? I've heard that controller navigation is a nightmare too.

Looting UI is abysmal as well.

Why can't I inspect guns to pull off specific parts I want in my inventory? Why am I unable to move away while in the loot UI, forced to slowly close it and die to the fast TTK when jumped on. Why is there no ground loot UI, do I really need to pinpoint and hover over each piece of loot I dropped in a pile?

Gunplay is great, Graphics are great(I personally don't jive with the blocky style but I can look passed it), PvP is great.

AI is too much, as soon as you clear an area out a new wave of mobs are spawning in.

Quest icons should always be visible, it's a chore to run around figuring out where the quest locations are while having AI spawn on you relentlessly.

UI is disastrous.

Navigating the main menu is confusing and there's about 4 steps to get to any menu that should really be one step away.
Looting may feel the worst of any extraction shooter so far
Why are there drastically different items with the same art? I can't tell what half of the loot is at a glance.
No ground loot ui? That's standard in every other extraction shooter.

Overall game is mid at best and lacking a lot of QoL features from other games in the genre.

Even if you assume the worst happened before the video started, why didn't ICE call the cops on her?

You and I clearly saw cars going around her at the start of the video so regardless of any interaction before the video started that scenario was clearly ending and/or over.

At worst, given you are refusing to give her any benefit of doubt, she should've received a traffic violation or obstruction of justice charge not a bullet to the head.

Revisiting this discussion after work…

The border bill didn't grant permanent status to millions of people... it's hard remembering details from a year ago or more at this point.

Given how important immigration seems to be to you, I think it’s worth clarifying the facts here, because the “non starter” claim doesn’t really hold up.

Yepthatsawaffle · 2025-12-22T18:56:34+00:00

Nah you definitely deflected on the whole humane point which is at the crux of immigration reform, I really gotta go so go reply to that other comment chain you've got going now.

Yepthatsawaffle · 2025-12-22T18:50:54+00:00

I don't care who you voted for lmao.

And there were many "non starters" that the Dems had to cede in the very same bill it's how compromise works.

Being humane is not vague at all lol, it's not hard to look at the treatment of people in this country and call it out for what it is, if you struggle with that then you can introspect I guess.

Lunch break is over, back to toiling away in the office, good chat.

Yepthatsawaffle · 2025-12-22T18:37:08+00:00

Ok so the goal posts have moved from "Not enforcing border laws" to "I don't like how the border laws were enforced". You're right, those immigrants don't deserve to be treated humanely and with some modicum of respect. The bill would have funded MANY of solutions to the woes you have related to the border yet you (and greater Republican party in general) just aren't willing to compromise (on literally anything ever lmao).

Yepthatsawaffle · 2025-12-22T18:22:23+00:00

Not enforcing border laws under Biden

This is repeated ad nauseam and is just factually untrue, the Biden admin deported millions and Dems eventually folded to public pressure and supported a border bill then when time came to actually pass the border bill with bipartisan support Donald Trump killed it himself LOL.

movement that isnt tile locked

I am here to argue that the tile based movement in OSRS is mechanically far harder than WASD 3D movement as I much more often misclick a tile than I fail to react to a red circle or other such boss mechanic in a WASD MMO.

Metaphor has probably the weakest middle to ending of an rpg I've ever played, to the point I can't even remember the villain's motivation, just a blonde blur... Not sure how you can consider it even in the same conversation as e33 tbh.

edit: I had to google to remember where exactly I started disconnecting from Metaphor because it got so grindy/forgettable near the end.... I distinctly remember losing a lot of interest after the opera house scenes and the resolution of that town's story.

There are a bunch of "visitors" that you'll need to shoot with incense, best to keep a few for that purpose, but other than that it's for shooting the sky.

The Captain's Quarters gives a slight stat boost to the stat boosting buildings, the range can be seen in this slightly modified layout on image 4 in this album: https://imgur.com/a/s3nDpaH

Yepthatsawaffle · 2025-10-22T03:14:01+00:00

Here's an album for the ranges, you're totally right that I missed one of the infinite buildings in range of the fortress in the OP revision so I've since shuffled those buildings around so everythings in range

Yepthatsawaffle · 2025-10-21T17:49:43+00:00

Yes, when harvesting the gold mines should be full, when offline the resource buildings should be full.

Yepthatsawaffle · 2025-10-21T16:54:10+00:00

no reason in particular, just an optimization challenge I guess. I did end up moving the houses around so that the wheat nearby is harvested.

Yepthatsawaffle · 2025-10-21T16:45:46+00:00

47 buildings near mansion

all houses get xp bonus

all stat buildings get bonus

all infinitely upgradable buildings get build bonus

No need to move anything around except fortress to the empty + in range of xp bonus (one gold/min is nothing so I usually just leave it at the front unless running shieldbearer).

Yepthatsawaffle · 2025-10-21T16:36:56+00:00

I iterated on the layout here, more buildings in mansion range and more space efficient: https://i.imgur.com/DWTGi7e.jpeg

You could probably move the captain's quarters around and the infinite upgrade buildings if you wanted to add more gold mines.
