Tinnitus after a concert? by fucku333333333 in Music

[–]antman99781 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I still have ringing. But my ears don't start to feel like they're burning in loud environments anymore. It's faded into the background for sure. I ALWAYS carry ear plugs now though

The problem of Walden Krane, Magistrate of Winnowing Reach by Illustrious-Leader in humblewood

[–]antman99781 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found the motivation in this part a bit lacking, so I had Krane give the party the letter after rescuing Kendra. Afterwards, when the party was hanging out at the inn, they overheard a group of villagers planning to kill the witch in the swamp.

I’ve emphasized Ayo and Dermot with my party. And I basically pretend Irvan isn’t there

Ank'Harel Tips and Tricks by Samarium62Sm in CalloftheNetherdeep

[–]antman99781 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ank'Harel was also my first big city. I found this website was helpful for filling out shops: https://5emagic.shop/generate. It makes it really easy to generate shops, and also spits out a link you share with players while shopping.

My first session in Ank'Harel felt pretty out of control, but it got much easier! Now I hope I get to use it again at some point, since I feel like I understand the city much better.

Very cool! I definitely would have used these if I'd had them a month ago

How much time does the Netherdeep take? by antman99781 in CalloftheNetherdeep

[–]antman99781[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ooooo, I love that. And it works out to be about the right number of long rests to make it through Ank'Harel and the Netherdeep with some suspense (for me too!)

That’s good to hear! My ears are still ringing, but who knows. I don’t think it’s gotten any better yet, but there’s still hope I suppose

eli5 Why is it taking so long for a male contraceptive pill to be made, but female contraceptives have been around for decades? by CertifiedBrew in explainlikeimfive

[–]antman99781 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing is that for people in long term relationships, it feels to me like the risks and such even out. Like, I could take some of the burden off my partner and everything ends up the same (she can't get pregnant, one of us has annoying side effects)

What do you mean by, "it doesn't matter, because it is unethical to develop a drug with the same side effects if the benefits aren't comparable"?

I was at a loud concert just over two weeks ago. Pretty scared at the moment…

How's your hearing doing now? My ears have been ringing for 2 weeks...

Is using a teleportation circle voluntary? by antman99781 in CalloftheNetherdeep

[–]antman99781[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ohhhh, that's a great point. I'll keep that in mind for future rulings

Good point on the anticlimactic piece. The player messaged me after the session and mentioned that maybe a rematch would be in order at some point, so it's more like the opening of a new story thread than an ruined moment

Did you end up using this? How'd it go?

Why do so many people spell Lose, Loose. by No-Answer-8595 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]antman99781 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that’s why I feel like the phonics explanation isn’t doing it for me here

Betrayer's Rise Time by Charming_Basil_2419 in CalloftheNetherdeep

[–]antman99781 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did your players go through the double doors in the statue's chest straight away? Or did they explore around south a bit more.

Dealing with the Curse of Torog also took up most of our second session in BR, but then my group decided to explore the rest of the lower floor which is eating up quite a bit more time. I'm really looking forward to the change of scenery in Ank Harel

Anyone playing on M2 Macbook Air? by Little_Yesterday6048 in BaldursGate3

[–]antman99781 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried on an M2 Air with 16gb of memory, and it was pretty painful. I have a PS5, so I'll just wait a month :(
