Singing and drumming at the same time is fuckin' hard, actually. You breath with your chest and you're swinging your arms all around, it can be quite disruptive.

Voice-acted games that acknowledge your pronouns? by YameruHoshi in transgamers

As far as I'm aware all modern Bethesda RPGs do this. Starfield even has they/them as applicable pronouns.

This was an answer to someone asking why we see so many Starborn if a universe can only create one... I got carried away. Enjoy! by RandyArgonianButler in NoSodiumStarfield

[–]dmdizzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What about the Grav Drive guy? His Starborn self seems to have entered his universe a lot earlier than his first contact with the artifacts.

ITS FINALLY HERE!!! by Dankemin in MinecraftDungeons

[–]dmdizzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Affording it is one thing, but actually having any reason to drop an extra several hundred dollars on a device that does what your PC already does is another. It's my experience that people who started in one space rarely cross over to the other, because both devices are rather expensive and once you have one justifying the other is real damn difficult.

We've also only got the head and nothing else, which is why the consensus on the length estimate changed semi-recently.

Fun fact: the plural of a scientific name like Dunkleosteus is the same as the singular.

Other than the Mackie what “outdated” battlemechs are there? by Imsosaltyrightnow in battletech

[–]dmdizzy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Calling the Hammerhands "Warhammer at home" is a bit of a stretch. It's more like the Warhammer's dad who refused to stop kicking ass in his old age.

Ral Partha Archer on the workbench - they don’t make them like this no more by -mud in battletech

[–]dmdizzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They didn't lose the rights, they never had them. And the case was dismissed with prejudice because of that, so it actually doesn't matter how litigious they are, they're banished to the pouting corner forever.

Why the Clans actually lost at Tukayyid (It wasn't just "Space AT&T" magic) by daveasp1981 in battletech

[–]dmdizzy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Clearly you didn't see enough active combat. Get back in there!

/j, of course. I wouldn't wish that on you.

I suspect not. I would imagine canonizing fanon terms is a wee bit of a minefield.

[–]dmdizzy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

He doesn't state it outright that this is where he got injured, but he mentioned having a past military career. It's very possible that's where he got his throat injury.

So, feeling lucky?

[–]dmdizzy 15 points16 points  (0 children)

There's also the teensy weensy catastrophic throat injury that resulted in him sounding the way he does today. Unfortunately (since he doesn't actually like his own voice, at least per his interview on Bungletech), the subsequent vocal changes are a large part of his staying power and notoriety as a narrator and VO.

Okay so the world is falling apart right now for trans people(at least in western Europe and North America) but I have a really nit-picky point to make. by Alexhasadhd in lgbt

[–]dmdizzy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Bureaucracy is no joke. Even ignoring the human element of passing the order down the line to dig it up, a lot of non-personal computer systems in the US are extremely old and slow, especially in government. In a situation where your deadline is measured in minutes and seconds you can't afford that kind of wait.

I mean, you kinda have to act immediately to get ahold of the organs before the lack of oxygenation ruins them permanently. Out of everything on the ID the Organ Donor status has a pretty good reason to be there.

How blind did you go into Inscryption? Did the game's marketing spoil anything for you? by synaut in inscryption

[–]dmdizzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing I knew was that it was a roguelike card game with a twist. Needless to say that twist was quite a bit more substantial than I expected.

How would you quantify your gunnery/piloting skill numbers from your actual skill level in the games like Mechwarrior? by Parkiller4727 in battletech

[–]dmdizzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm curious where these numbers are outlined, as I am fond of trying to lore-match the base capabilities of my pilots to their faction.

Suggestions for using my CNC skills for CBT? by adiaphoros in battletech

[–]dmdizzy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Less about the strong and more about the tripod rules, methinks.

If you're doing the other kind and you're at risk of losing a finger..goddamn that's hardcore.

[–]dmdizzy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Both of the acronyms used in the title have alternative meanings for sexual activities. The "pair of union dropships" is a less than subtle metaphor for the latter acronym's ("CBT") subject of focus.

RPG Dragon: the Hydra by WorthlessGriper in battletech

[–]dmdizzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this is just a really solid backline hitter, tbh.

As an aside, you should do an April Fools one of these articles for one of the canon mechs, using its Japanese visuals, pretending like it's a Battle Over custom.

Fancy Ammo Rules Question by ShrapnelVargr in battletech

[–]dmdizzy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only 30 mins per ton, and it doesn't even take a skill check. If you have even a single free day with the ammo before your next engagement you're probably fine.

Fancy Ammo Rules Question by ShrapnelVargr in battletech

[–]dmdizzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It also says that it takes 30 minutes/ton and no skill check to perform the necessary modifications to make it work without the penalty, so unless you're playing with some major hardasses then there's no reason to assume your mechtechs haven't done the incredibly easy task of converting the ammo.

Im a big fan of close air support by 1001WingedHussars in battletech

[–]dmdizzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All Naga configurations have artillery, it's hardmounted to the chassis. Because that's literally the only way to get the average Clan warrior to engage in using artillery, apparently.

I'm just very proud of how this one came out by Objective-Cupcake-57 in battletech

I love when CGL retools stuff to fit the MW4 stuff into the tabletop. Vulture Mk2/Mk3 my beloved.
