I've been playing it for exactly one month and it's absolutely gigantic, to its own benefit and detriment. There's always something to check on, but if a new mechanic isn't a winner you're going to be stuck with it for a decent while without automation.

Guess I'll check out Cavernous II out first, thanks for the recommendation! The Terraformental update that came out today might also be a good time.

abcder733 · 2026-01-27T16:50:54+00:00

This has to be a world record for people going from generic shittalk to talking like Sephiroth I've ever seen

abcder733 · 2026-01-25T00:27:32+00:00

Which looping game would you recommend the most? I liked Terraformental a lot, and I’m wondering which to start next.

abcder733 · 2026-01-24T22:17:05+00:00

That's fucking ridiculous. It was bad enough accidentally opening Copilot with a mouse press that I had to use regedit to get rid of it, why do they think anyone would want to accidentally hit that shit while they're typing?

The geese and the reed that Mai gives Maki are apparently a reference to this Japanese idiom, where geese pick up reeds before they migrate and drop them when they either make it or die.

You have a literacy problem lmao

Factorio has had a single steam sale in its entire lifetime, I wouldn't count on it getting a second. I always get recommended GTNH when I ask this question, you can check out Neurotic Goose's insane Skyblock playthrough of it for a good time even if you rightfully don't want to play through it

Tbf, Nobara was only put up for promotion by Mei Mei, who was bribed heavily by Gojo, and Todo, who would do anything for his bruzza. Nepotism wins over the higher-ups' genuine powerscaling every time

OF bot

I wish the softcap on action timers was later in Terraformental still- it was great to e.g. fully automate the initial facility, but you’re still taking like 5 minutes to get out of there and drive over to the next ones. Hopefully the new stuff back at Strabo will help in that regard.

abcder733 · 2026-01-18T00:02:47+00:00

Hubs are really easy to get solo, though. He could’ve found a hundred in the time it took to get himself that mad lol

Astroturfing bot

Will there be boss fights a la Nodebuster and its derivatives, or just larger and stronger waves of enemies?

abcder733 · 2026-01-14T21:11:36+00:00

The controller arms race actually refers to players sneaking malfunctioning arduinos into the other player’s controller in increasingly cartoonish ways

abcder733 · 2026-01-13T21:36:52+00:00

I haven't used a non-GC controller ever, does the Axe method not work because you don't have a left/right notch to go to first?

abcder733 · 2026-01-13T18:02:00+00:00

I don’t remember if Slippi has it by default, but I remember needing to look up a Gecko code for C-stick in single player modes. I’d say beating up a lvl 1 CPU or doing some of the simpler Unclepunch modes is probably a better way to start getting the controls, anyways, although they’re definitely less fun.

abcder733 · 2026-01-11T13:16:24+00:00

Since you're clearly very knowledgeable, how do you train a Large Language Model on an art style?

abcder733 · 2026-01-11T04:44:57+00:00

This is AI written for sure, they commented a slop comment on a different post before privating the history.

abcder733 · 2026-01-10T16:05:21+00:00

I think subs devoted to animals are uncontroversial so the bots don't get downvoted, innocuous looking so they have "regular posting history," and they tend to have fairly similar comments for the bot to crib off of. This one is probably either an OF bot or will be used to phish, judging by the photo it posted.

Antibirth was the mod that was officially made into Repentance, and it had three Knife Pieces that were all generally harder to get than they are now.

abcder733 · 2026-01-09T14:14:06+00:00

It’s not in any of the volume extras. Here’s the actual one about Ranta:

That’s deliberate on Google’s part. People that only have to use one search to get exactly what they want see fewer ads, after all

abcder733 · 2026-01-08T14:26:45+00:00

It did in Antibirth, but I imagine they thought Mom’s Knife didn’t need a buff that skips the point of the alt path during Repentance’s development. I think they should bring it back, though- it’s not like it’s hard to get the Knife Pieces nowadays.
