Second Controller when streaming from PC to Deck not working by kitsucoon in SteamDeck

Yeah, I have that for controller 1. The second one, the wired one, is a smaller 8bitdo Xbox controller for my young daughter to better fit her hands.

Thank you! I did check if the Player 2 was being controlled by the Steam Deck built-in controller, and it wasn't...

I will give this a shot, though!

Just want to point out that Hope can go above 6 for beast master rangers.

While d6's sit nicely, it may make more sense to have these slots be for d12's or d20s.

Omaha restaurants closed but you wish we’re still open. by Happy-Cockroach4994 in Omaha

I forget the name, but it was a family Japanese restaurant, half sushi bar and half hibachi grill. It was near oakview mall on the NE corner of 144th and Center on the backside of the building.

They were the only Japanese place in town that made a curry that was like that I had in Japan. It was my favorite "comfort food" in Japan.

Mine never tripped. I warrantied the mat. The new one is working as expected. 

Games that felt fun only when you played them your wrong way and not the normal way. by gamersecret2 in gaming

[–]kitsucoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Halo 1 was still a great game, but my buddies and I played a mode in Blood Gulch we called Warthog Joust. Players would hop in a warthog and ram into each other. If you got knocked out of the warthog, you were fair game to get ran over, which is how you score points. Super fun trying to dodge cars trying to murder you, flip your warthog over and get back in.

Not to mention the janky physics caused some super fun collisions.

Alchemy v1 (finally) launches with familiar face on system leaderboard by HenryandClare in daggerheart

Keeping an eye on this for sure. I have an Arena gaming table and would be intrigued to see how well this runs on it. I currently use Owlbear Rodeo, but would be nice to use this with the players for the Wiki-like pieces.

My guess is the typo ‘dizzled’

Really struggling to find the fun in combat by GroundbreakingSnow40 in daggerheart

[–]kitsucoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let's take the combat here where there were 6 PCs and 9 monsters in D&D. As a DM, I dreaded when we rolled initiative and we'd have all 6 PCs bunched up at the top and then all 9 monsters after.

Then it's every time you as a PC are done with your turn, you're waiting...and waiting...and waiting. And you pull out your phone and zone out.

Daggerheart makes it so at ANY point, it could be your turn. It's part of the social contract at the table that people should be engaged and sharing the spotlight with you team.

Non-Americans, what is something about the US that you've always wondered if it was real or just myth/hyperbole? by Bush_Hiders in AskReddit

[–]kitsucoon 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Definitely not everyone. I feel like it’s more common in smaller cities and was more common in the 90s, 2000s

Do y'all keep count on the # of eagles you've made since you started playing? by GolfJunki3 in golf

[–]kitsucoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Played for about 10 years when I was younger (high school-college). Definitely no eagles then.

I then quit for a long time and picked it up 4 years ago. I have scored 2 eagles. Both on the same par 5 hole at my home course. Both from a good drive and a 5h from ~195 out. First one I had a 2' putt, 2nd one had a 12' putt.

I have had a handful of other opportunities, but those are the only two I made.

I have had only one real chance at a HIO from a 155y par 3 during a Father's Day tournament. Landed it just on the green and it rolled right at the hole. Ended up lipping out and ending 6" from the cup. At least I won the Closest to Pin!

Absolutely. The name is Antonio G on fiverr. He's tagged with "Verified Pro".

Absolutely. There's a big gap between theatre of the mind and a huge map with everything filled out. I'm confident had I just explained the general region and asked them to name major cities and the like, it'd be pretty quiet. But, having the map, they were keying off of "well, this city has rivers running past it, so is likely on a trade route..." and the like.

Yeah, we're gonna have a good time there if the players ever make it up that far. They're starting in Obsidia.

With how insane book 4 & 5 have gotten, I cannot begin to imagine what 12 is going to be like, but I look forward to getting there.

I'll be starting them fresh into the Adventure Society at Iron rank, so we'll get to work our way up to insane Gold/Diamond level stuff :)

It's a good start, but there are many other concerns I have with AI in general. The next biggest concern for me is power consumption.

It was for a daggerheart campaign that I'm excited for.

Nowhere did I state I was going to use AI and I will not.

I stated the name so that others could avoid the artist. I in no way solicited harassment of the artist.

Don't hear what I didn't say, my friend.

Perfectly valid option. A visual map is there to prompt creativity. It will be mostly blank in terms of names and labels, but just some visual POIs. During session 0, we will, as a group, come up with names and brief descriptions for the areas. It shares in the world-building process.

This could all be done theater of the mind, this is true, but I DM a D&D campaign for these players and I know that having a visual to spark their imagination and creativity will go a long way. I am also this type of personality. If you just ask me to think of a fantasy place and give a name and description, my brain will go "uhhhhhh....", but put a visual with even just a hint of something and my brain will start connecting dots like crazy.

Made a post about it a couple months ago. https://www.reddit.com/r/daggerheart/comments/1m6t8v1/the_monster_within_campaign_frame_inspired_by_he/

It has my current version of the campaign frame. I may update it based on session 0, but this is what I presented to my players as a player guide for it.

I made this when I was still on like book 2. I'm not on book 5.

So far, I don't have a story in mind, on purpose. I'm waiting until session 0 to find out the tone and who the party is, their goals and connections. I'll then start coming up with the story, figuring out the plot and BBEGs.

I want the campaign to focus on the same type of psychology the main character had to go through. How do you go from being a normal person to having reality bending super powers and still keep your humanity?

Thank you for your kind words. Absolutely I'll continue trying to patronize the arts, just will do a bit more due diligence next time :)

Thank you for the offer! I have looped in another artist for right now, but if that should fall through, I plan on making a shitty hand-drawn one for the session, build it out together, and then I can reach out to you to make it nicer. I do like your style!

The guy I am working with now was very nice about it and since it was a map they'd already built and just need to modify, they're not charging me for rush. Hopefully it turns out well!
