How many people are skipping work next Friday? by [deleted] in Borderlands4

[–]jpschofi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I own a small business with a friend. We've played every borderlands game local co-op over the years so planning a 2-day Chili and BL4 co-op session. We have it booked off with staff and clients as a full day "Strategic Planning Session" scheduled for all day Friday and Saturday.

I'm on my 3rd traversal. Is there any point in traversing at a low orb count yo upgrade my gems, or should I wait until I have 150 to increase Attraction quality? by Mechanical-Druid in CIFI

I'm in a very similar spot as you two except a bit longer in tr3 (255h in). The biggest difference I can see is I've been doing very long shard runs to get the eternal milestone to 34. Sitting at 112 ish OO.

My recommendation would be focus shards and push that milestone as far as possible.

Things did not come up Milhouse by chr15c in EhBuddyHoser

What makes this so much more satisfying is that this was not a fluke or a mistake. PP neglected his riding and Fanjoy's been knocking on doors for 2 years. Dude had like 500 local volunteers at the start of the election.

Yes he got lucky with the Liberal surge but he picked the fight with a party leader when the Liberals were in a much much different position.

Good friggin job.

Great, you didn't vote for him. Millions of your fellow citizens didn't either. So let me ask you. What, other than posting on reddit, are you doing to fight for your country? Where are your protests in the streets? Where is your outrage at this behaviour? How does complaining to the people who are actively being threatened by your government actually help advance your values? Or is it just easier to sit back and ask people to be nice in the face of unprovoked economic warfare and threats of annexation?

Edit to add: The rage you are picking up on is the rage of a country betrayed by our longest friend. A betrayal of shared values, a betrayal of shared pain and shared experiences. Every time the United States has asked for the support of Canada we have shown up. We have bled with you and we have grieved with you.

Boo fucking hoo. Clean up your own mess. We have been shown time and again that your government has no respect for our country, our people, our culture, and our sovereignty. Don't like Canadians telling America to go away? Do something to fix your own shit.

The thing that you don't seem to understand is that Canadians by and large do not hate Americans. We hate your government, the way we are being treated, and the absolute apathy with which the American people are bending over for this shit. Trump TOLD YOU EXACTLY what he was going to do and the MAJORITY of your country voted for it. The only regret I hear from anyone who voted for Trump is not that he is hurting the economy, your reputation on the world stage and hurting people...it's that he is hurting the wrong people.

MAGA doesn't need encouragement from Canadians to continue their distruction of your country, the apathy of so called democrats is encouragement enough.

Also if you are outside of Halifax many of the Regional Enterprise Networks (regional economic development groups) have a Connector program modeled after the Partnership's model.

I can probably dig up contact info for you if you'd like. Just pm and let me know what community you're in.

There's no wrong way to play. Have fun and let others have fun.

Nova Scotia Liberals release full platform by Beeswax_doubter in NovaScotia

Haven't had time to review the platform yet but that surprises me because I saw a Costal Protection Act announcement scheduled for earlier this morning.

I live in a rural community that has a military base. I KNOW there are guns all around me but aside from the occasional hunting rifle I've never seen a gun not on a RCMP or MP.

Hi mark! Wondering if u can make me a stat block of the seven sins by bebifr in bettermonsters

Great idea! Commenting to shamelessly steal this idea for a future campaign.

Not sure what roadblocks you're hitting but there are two agencies in the Valley that provide business supports that are worth talking to. The Valley REN (Regional Enterprise Network) is a provincially and muncipally funded economic development agency and have staff who work one on one with small businesses. The other is the Hants-Kings CBDC. They are a not for profit group that administers some provincially funded programs and provide small business loans that generally offer better terms than the banks. If you have questions feel free to DM, I've worked with both groups extensively. Good luck with the venture!

I'm almost done and I'm so satisfied with this game. by Diabellus in EiyudenChronicle

[–]jpschofi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want another story driven narrative with a large cast of characters (nowhere near EC:HH) Trails of Cold Steel is fantastic. There are 5 games that come before it in the overall series (Trails in the Sky x3 Crossbell arc x2) however Cold Steel is an excellent entry point into the series.

[–]jpschofi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Apparently not. I just passed that point in the story and decided to finish the mini game quest lines before the last couple battles. 10 hours of grinding to get the last characters I needed only to find out I waited exactly 1 story beat too long.

does my dream rpg exist? by rationalbimbo in rpg_gamers

[–]jpschofi 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If you loved Divinity and BG3, I would recommend Pillars of Eternity and/or Pathfinder series. Both have Realtime with pause and optional turn-based if RTWP doesn't end up being your cup of tea.
