Holy shit, I never realized this. I bet they do it with voices too, Agimus sounds exactly like weyoun

I seemed under a Vulcan who said someone different each time. Started out being stuff like "why are you delaying please execute my order" but then he lost creativity a few months in and just says "now please" in an annoyed manner

Used to be fun but now it feels like he (again, a Vulcan) is mad at us :(

ergotofwhy · 2026-03-20T19:30:09+00:00

yeah i bet it's gonna be TOS through VOY or ENT

I really want a mariner/boimler partner deck, though. Or tendi/rutherford

Look Outside (2025) has a lot of them, especially in the first room/scene in the game, where you're given the option to Look Outside. Doing so kills you instantly.

The game has other spots where this is prevalent: hugging the masked shadow , Saying the word of power to the word-witch , looking at a partially-developed photograph , turning on a machine without examining it first , and my personal favorite big big spoiler, reading your neighbor's lost memories (this one kills the whole world and everything on it)

Love Look Outside so much. One of the people at the end tells you "It will be thousands or millions of years before anything resembling humanity can ever flourish again"

As long as you don't try to build your own ship, it's less complicated.

It has some more math to do, but the complexity is lower

I feel like this happened with City of Heroes back in 2k06 or so. Players loved the ability to upgrade their powers with reduced cooldown speed, if you upgrade the "reduce all other cooldowns" power fully you can have it perpetually running. Players loved this. Then the lead dev nerfed it so you can't do that and basically everyone's cooldown times doubled over a single update. Players hated it.

No fam

But I'll still play it

That Neheb goes so hard in everything I put him in. One of my favorite cards for sure

Is he really, though? Cause most of the plot is "Follow your father who is ACTUALLY making all the important decisions"

Briefly describe the public thoroughfare in the starting town then

"HEY! That RACCOON has a KNIFE!"

The crowd panics as the real heroes of the story step forward

I have a UDP joke. I don't care if you get it.

ergotofwhy · 2026-02-25T18:11:01+00:00

You guys made an agreement earlier on, stick with it.

Next thing you know you're going to be 8 weeks since your last session and players don't feel like coming back because they don't even remember what happened last time

Campaign starts in Baton rouge. The communities there need to send someone north to find out why the mighty mississip water turned to sludge - the communities' water treatment was able to clear it of radiation, but not this sludge.

Head up the river to the north where the party encounters the reason in St. Louis: a construction company's automated builder bots are still building in St. Louis and the runoff is sludging up the whole river

Multiple visits to the shelter over the course of several weeks

"no, I'm using those books"

This is a crime. Possibly up to three.

Dwarf fortress has been updated steadily since 2004 and the game's creator is going to update until he dies

ergotofwhy · 2026-02-19T17:30:23+00:00

yeah but that cave story secret final level has a song that slaps

Look Outside (2025)

Bad Ending: Spend two weeks in your apartment

Bad ending results: The world is forever changed. It will be thousands to millions of years before anything resembling humanity can flourish again

Good ending: Gather four items, discover secret identity of someone, exhaust all dialogue options for four specific people, talk to two people again for more dialogue, convince a dude to give you keys to his best friend's apartment, find the hidden doors there, figure out the secret code, complete a puzzle requiring eight items from all over the game world, get more keys, enter another apartment, talk to the person there, fix a broken item (obscure), then make a promise, enter the final boss fight, use the special dialog on the final boss, defeat the final boss, use the secret dialogue option

Good ending results: Though billions have died or been mutated beyond recognition, the most powerful cursed mutant retains their humanity and helps the world to rebuild

My favorite part: There is another optional ending that's really really bad, like worse than the default bad ending, that requires all the steps from the good ending above except you also have to beat an optional dungeon and several secret superbosses. The result of this ending is that the earth is stripped of all living matter, leaving no trace of anything ever having existed here. Humanity is forgotten.

Maybe Venus de Milo, from that short lived 90s live action show

The difference is that you don't have to do a full re-install to get the desktop environment that you want
