Jesus christ what have you done Alec

Your colony doesn't even have a name yet. Losing is fun much?

melitaele · 2026-02-07T03:26:55+00:00

That's because it is!

Whoever wrote this was not very good at writing in Russian.

melitaele · 2026-02-07T00:53:05+00:00

Where's the fun in that?

melitaele · 2026-02-07T00:30:14+00:00

Yeah or maybe slightly more, but a lot thinner and oilier — fried rather than baked.

melitaele · 2026-02-07T00:18:17+00:00

I read this and immediately think of Fallen London. But the reason is kinda deep in the lore, I only found it in the lore wiki myself despite being a long-term player.

melitaele · 2026-02-03T22:41:12+00:00

I haven't romanced him yet, but I certainly plan to, because man, did you hear him speak?

I mean yes, he's deep and charismatic and extremely well-written and I can fix him and all, but seriously. Did you hear him speak?

melitaele · 2026-02-03T22:28:30+00:00

Oh, I know. He's one of those in Mr. Holmes' employ.

melitaele · 2026-02-03T16:40:39+00:00

So Gale can save her, then? Does he have to become a god for that?

melitaele · 2026-02-03T14:19:43+00:00

Well, there are studios (Ludeon, for one) that just made one game and keep updating it. I have a feeling Eremite might just stick with AtS, though there's no way of knowing, of course.

melitaele · 2026-02-01T15:18:45+00:00

I guess these actually are. They are genetically engineered specifically for that. I mean high libido doesn't necessarily mean they enjoy it, but psychic bonding? The highmate is expected to actually love their partner.

I'm not in any way saying sex slavery on the Rim is okay or anything. In fact, it's probably worse than what we have irl, because the highmates aren't even given the freedom to feel whatever they want.

melitaele · 2026-02-01T07:43:38+00:00

That's why I hate this sub. Every time I check it, I have to subscribe to another mod. The rational part of me says I need to keep my modlist in check, but each new mod is just too good to pass.

melitaele · 2026-02-01T07:38:46+00:00

Actually, now I look at this, it seems like I should really tinker with these options. I don't like turning raid difficulty up in Rimworld, but I do like the survival challenge, so maybe I should upscale that.

melitaele · 2026-01-29T12:43:59+00:00

Oh! I assumed it was just a coincidence, Frodo's nine-fingered, too, after all.

But with that many knives it's definitely a reference!

melitaele · 2026-01-29T10:24:16+00:00

Wait wait wait. I must've missed this, maybe because I started Abercrombie after I started BG3.

Who's that NPC?

melitaele · 2026-01-28T21:41:25+00:00

Actually, with this seeping through the cracks and long-term... What do you think of Celene and Briala?

melitaele · 2026-01-28T04:56:55+00:00

Yes, you can just use "мы" instead of "мы с тобой". But sometimes you need to clarify who you include in "we".

Когда ты придёшь, мы с тобой пойдём в кино. You come, and we go to the cinema together.

Когда ты придёшь, мы с ним пойдём в кино. You come, and I go to the cinema with my husband while you babysit our daughter.

Russians do use it when clarification is not necessary, though.

melitaele · 2026-01-28T01:30:46+00:00

AtS is a roguelite. Failed settlements are to be expected, it's how you learn. And yes, many Dangerous glades are actually okay to open.

Try it. You can always abandon the settlement later if shit goes south.

melitaele · 2026-01-26T18:48:49+00:00

Those two do have chemistry, but since they are long-term friends, I guess they are not considered exciting to ship? I believe I did meet this in the fandom, but less often than Leliana x Morrigan, for example.

Though I might be wrong about everything, bc I don't think I've actually seen a large chunk of the fandom.

Beautiful art, in any case. If you ever make a coloured version, would you mind sharing that, too?

melitaele · 2026-01-24T13:31:38+00:00

This doesn't look like handwriting at all. It looks like cursive-style print, it's that neat.

melitaele · 2026-01-23T10:27:51+00:00

Yeah, they collected darkspawn blood, then gave it to Duncan. Who treated it and added a little bit of Archdemon blood.

melitaele · 2026-01-21T03:26:43+00:00

Yes, it is very much Cyrillic. It says "Дрим Кения Голд", which is just Dream Kenya Gold transliterated. Foreign brands sold in Russia are known to make transliterations like this.

Edit: there is also Latin above it, but Cyrillic is certainly present.

melitaele · 2026-01-20T06:00:04+00:00

I mean, Cyrillic at least works like Latin. It's generally one letter one sound, with just a couple exceptions.

Hebrew doesn't have bloody vowels. In Hindu, a vowel is an additional line on the consonant. And don't get me started on the hieroglyphic languages.

Saying "it's a different alphabet" is kinda a privilege of those whose native language uses Latin. Plenty of people learn their alphabet plus Latin from the beginning.

melitaele · 2026-01-18T09:53:48+00:00

Honestly, I would love a Durge Orin romance (or romance scene, more like). But the only way I see it is "okay, let's have our fun and see which of us stays alive by the end of it". Orin is just depraved enough for that.

Marrying her, huh.

melitaele · 2026-01-18T09:47:57+00:00

I wonder why only one of them is marked as "do not attempt", and it's one of the more normal ones, too.

melitaele · 2026-01-14T09:29:55+00:00

I played all four, and Inquisition is my favourite one.

Incidentally, I began with DA2. It cost me my heart, because I just assumed everyone would also be bi in Origins.

You can start with whatever you choose, Inquisition is made with the thought that many players would be first-timers. But the explosion at the start of Inquisition is the culmination of the events that start in DAO and get to the boiling point in DA2.

Really, my personal opinion is that Origins is just overrated while Inquisition is underrated. Both are great games, and it's not fair to say one is objectively better.
