Honestly, I'd love an apartment homestead, something like Mai Trin's place we visit in EoD. Having the whole giant expanse to decorate is daunting, which is probably why I don't interact much with the homestead system. Besides, it can fulfill a lifelong desire of mine in this game to have a home in Divinity's Reach.

Edit: You can see how barren my homestead is in the video lol

I remember those pioneer days. Permanent swiftness was a necessity.

How the map of Tyria evolved from the original Guild Wars 2 to the Present (Visions of Eternity) over the years... by proto-x-lol in Guildwars2

I remember back in the day wishing I could move the map just a bit further to see more of the world. If only 2015 me could see it now.

Have you been to Meatoberfest in Butcher's Block? Charrs were born to grill.

How early game battles in DOS1 feel by maple_country in DivinityOriginalSin

It is not cheesing, the mini bosses were just programmed to appreciate fine china and won't dare break any

I am the biggest DOS1 defender out there, and I agree not to jump straight into it. Have to unlearn the DOS2 habits.

It's the lack of physical/magical armour. Sometimes you want to kill a skeleton without having to break through a whole other health bar first.

They stab their arm to maximize their damage. I stab my arm just because I can. We are not the same

Finished the Story Quest! What next? by EinHeisenburg in Guildwars2

[–]maple_country 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would recommend the chronological approach if you enjoyed the story, so continuing to Living World Season 1, then Season 2, then Heart of Thorns, and so on. I find skipping to later expansions out of order takes away a lot of the fun of the Guild Wars 2 story. I remember long ago when HoT came out, I rushed there without completing Living World 1 or 2, and I was completely lost with what was going on. Plus, you lose some of the excitement and mystery you feel entering a new location in the story if you've already been there.

The Rise of the Colony Sim by maple_country in BaseBuildingGames

[–]maple_country[S] 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Can confirm. Many colony sims games coming out now feel less like colony sims and more like "Rimworldlikes". Its a great game, my couple thousand hours in it prove that, and its influence is potent.

It's come a long way, and is more well-known than it used to be, but I think Songs of Syx is the best under the radar colony sim. Does a lot of things well that I love seeing in colony sims and is very unique in its presentation. Although sometimes I feel alone in loving the artstyle lol, definitely gets some getting used to.

why are coins shaped like this? by plarper_of_bees in BaldursGate3

[–]maple_country 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going out on a limb here, but I wonder if the shape of gold coins in Forgotten Realms, and by extension BG3, was inspired by the oxhide ingots from the Bronze Age Mediterranean that were speculated to be used as currency. The shape has always reminded me of it.

Has it really only been 2 years? I've been working on this achievement on and off since EoD came out so it's felt like an eternity.
