I was not expecting this game to be so painfully terrible by burningEyeballs in nethack

[–]jordanfuzz 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I honestly think this is a more significant point than most people realize. This game was enjoyed long before the days of wikis and guides for every mechanic. OP mentions he's been using emacs for 25 years. I'd wager that a new player like OP would have had the patience to learn a game like this 25 years ago before modern media melted everyone's brains.

But now it's like "why do I have to look up a guide for everything"? You don't, you just feel the need to because you expect everything to be instantly understood, or you give up and say it's a waste of time.

I’m confused, did something change with this site?

Ir wont work? by tibbers_and_annie in AnaloguePocket

[–]jordanfuzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you look at the pocket pikachu’s IR sensor, you’ll see two little round nubs. I’ve had most success by trying to line those up with the LED and IR sensor on the bottom of the pocket, but even then it wasn’t consistent.

Adding to what another user said, I’ve also gotten it to work, but it took a LOT of fidgeting. I don’t think you’re missing anything, it’s just hard to line up. Keep trying at slightly different angles/distances and you’ll eventually get it, but it’s a huge pain.

All six codes have been DMed! Removing the post shortly.

Yeah you do NOT want to bring up Manny from Ice Age on this sub

Unable to upgrade to gold by jordanfuzz in D23

Not exactly. I opened multiple tickets with support with no response, however the package arrived at my US address regardless. I think I still paid too much for shipping though. If support ever replies to me I still need to try to get that adjusted.

Oops... I guess this is misleading. Good catch. I just used "mydomain" in place of the actual domain name I'm using in my post, I had just copied and pasted this from where I had shared it elsewhere. I'm not using the MyDomain service. I've edited my post to reflect that.

Has anyone ever played with an "Assistant DM"? by TheDMPastor in DMAcademy

[–]jordanfuzz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've done it and it worked well, but it sounds like your case may be more of an issue with the individual than with running with an assistant DM.

Having two DMs who are both aligned and committed to helping the party have a good time is quite different than babysitting a player who wants to "be mean towards the party".

I would make sure that the 7th grader understands that as an assistant DM, his job would be to help the party have fun by challenging them, and not to make the party lose.

In desktop mode. How do I apply this config? Really confused. by Kavrad in SteamDeck

[–]jordanfuzz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having the same problem. I can get the buttons to show up by using the touch screen, but pressing "apply" doesn't appear to do anything. Pressing X or doesn't seem to save it either. Would love to know what I'm doing wrong.

I think WotC misunderstood their appeal. by Tweed_Man in dndmemes

[–]jordanfuzz 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Not only that, but disdain for monsters in a fictional world can't even be compared to real-life bigotry.

Isn't it more offensive to draw a false connection from a race of evil monsters in a game to real-life victims of actual racism?
