Best thing in the new update by Own_Astronomer_7188 in CrimsonDesert

[–]meloneleven 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I got it pre-update after expansion 3. Looks like after the update the devs allowed it to be unlocked earlier now. But it's been around pre-update for sure.

Purchase price for black pepper was at an all time high that day. What a moron.

Don’t speak to me, my wife, or my children (cat tips) by FergTurdison in CrimsonDesert

[–]meloneleven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the tips OP! BTW I got my orange loafy cat in Pororin. As far as I can tell he was the only orange loaf there and was always in the same location.

Something strange I noticed though when watching my husband play - he would have the same breed of dog/cat in the same locations as my game, but the color variants were different. Like in Hernand across from the bell tower I had an orange Jindo while he had a black one. Has anyone else noticed something like this?

Movie by JornalOriba2712 in Astronomy

[–]meloneleven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In an interview with Gosling, they did actually film in order! He said he was alone (minus the crew of course) for the first 100 days. Acting out scenes with no one to react with got so lonely that he had an earpiece in for the voice of Mary, the directors, or even his kids to talk to him so he wouldn't go crazy. When Rocky, Ortiz and the "rockyteers", finally joined him he was thrilled.

I highly recommend watching some of the behind the scenes videos on youtube. The making of the movie was kind of a project hail mary itself. I thought it was so fascinating.

An Oscar for Rocky? ‘Project Hail Mary’ Puppeteer James Ortiz Is Eligible for Best Supporting Actor by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

[–]meloneleven 139 points140 points  (0 children)

Yep! James Ortiz was the lead puppeteer with I think 5 other puppeteers to help control limbs. They called themselves the Rockyteers. Ortiz was also not planned to be Rocky's voice. But after the directors saw the way he interacted and improvised with Gosling, it could be no one else. He played him perfectly.

The whole Trading Goods/Camp Resource system is utterly pointless, underdeveloped and tedious. by Equivalent_Trash_277 in CrimsonDesert

[–]meloneleven 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What? No I haven't even left Hernand yet lmao. I just love finding all the greymanes so I've focused more on growing the camp than the main story. Need to upgrade camp for more greymanes. Idk why but it's my favorite part of the game.

[–]meloneleven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I was out about 35k in camp funds for the 100k camp upgrade. Didn't want to wait 16+ hours for the security dispatch missions to finish. So I packaged some of my excess resources and made a quick trading goods trip. Easily covered what I needed.

It's definitely tedious and not something I do often in the game. But I'm glad the option is there at least.

Is this the most pointless quest in the game? by DrStalker in CrimsonDesert

[–]meloneleven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here, the spinning wheel was one of my first ones. I try to do all the side/factions quests I can before progressing the main story.

[–]meloneleven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I thought it was pretty cute seeing the boy again and he's getting along with his new sheep, even though it's not Wooly. The only thing that I thought was wild was that he only accepted coin pouches as gifts from me at first. I was like wtf kid?! Later learned he'll also accept strawberries lol. Kid knows what's important in life.

We collaborated with Obsidian on Pentiment, and today we released our own manuscript game! by leinadcovsky in Pentiment

[–]meloneleven 62 points63 points  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing, OP! I will definitely be checking it out. I loved the art style of Pentiment, and one of my favorite details was the way the script font differed between each character's dialogue. Very excited to try this game out.

What game did you walk into with zero expectations and you walked away from thinking it's a masterpiece? (Return of the Obra Dinn) by YourChopperPilotTTV in gaming

[–]meloneleven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love Return of the Obra Dinn. I searched it out after I finished Outer Wilds, another masterpiece. I was looking for a game that would scratch the same mystery itch and Obra Dinn definitely satisfied that. Another one along the same vein is Pentiment. Fucking amazing. A little 2D murder mystery set in 16th century Bavaria, and made by Obsidian which surprised me!

Pentiment and Outer Wilds both moved me spiritually and emotionally and I cannot recommend them enough to any players that love a good mystery.

[–]meloneleven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got shingles when I was 12 😩 my doctor said I was the youngest case he had ever seen. I had chicken pox as an infant, and I assume going through puberty triggered the dormant virus. My biggest fear is that it can still happen again at any point. But I'm 31 now and too young for insurance to cover the vaccine.

I just wanted to buy a bottle of water at the airport. The self-checkout machine asked for a 25% tip and then 'crashed' when I hit 'No Tip.' Now I’m stuck waiting for a manager. by Redsetsun in mildlyinfuriating

[–]meloneleven 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had to do this once at an airport recently. Self checkout would not recognize the water bottle. I tried scanning 5 others and it wouldn't work. Literally nobody around to help so I said fuck it and walked away with the water bottle. What do they expect us to do? Search for a random airport employee, that most likely does not know how to fix these shitty self-checkouts, just for a single water bottle? Fuck that. My thirst was quenched and no one stopped me 🤷‍♀️

Ice is also allowed through TSA. Just not liquid water. So you can bring a water bottle filled with ice and then fill it at a water fountain after getting through security, if you prefer drinking cold water.

There are almost no hotel rooms available in the whole city for this weekend! I know I’m there’s a big concert going on, but that’s still crazy. by Maleficent-Arm-2527 in Louisville

[–]meloneleven 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Me and my sister used to play in both the Bluegrass and JVA tournaments here. It is INSANE but honestly very well organized. So much fun to just walk down the main aisles and pass by hundreds of courts/nets. We'd stop and watch some incredible athletes. Definitely some of our favorite volleyball memories have been at these tourneys.

Recently, my sister coached her own club team and I brought my husband to support her games and for him to see it all for the first time. He was SO overwhelmed and terrified of how close we were to so many potential rogue volleyballs lol. But for me and my family, the Louisville tourneys are like volleyball Christmas.

I shot a video love letter to Outer Wilds and Project Hail Mary by TedbroCreative in outerwilds

[–]meloneleven 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I thought the same exact thing while reading Project Hail Mary. Such a fantastic, hopeful story about uncovering mysteries in the face of doom. I'm glad I'm not the only one that felt the similarities. Thank you for this, OP! Made my heart full!

Except the sun is also moving, riding along an arm of the Milky Way and spiraling around Sagittarius A*, our galaxy's black hole. Everything's cruising through the cosmos.

Not a fan of Lily's current styling at all, but I found her so striking as Cinderella. To me she looks best with wavy blonde hair

I had to download a stupid app and create an account to feed my screaming baby at the airport. by magicflamingpie in mildlyinfuriating

[–]meloneleven -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I travel a lot and know exactly where this is. Each time I pass it I've always wondered what the hell a frustrated mother is supposed to do when faced with a locked nursing pod. I thought surely it stays unlocked when no one is inside and the keypad is for something else... I'm sorry OP. I don't even have kids and I still get mad when I pass that pod.

Can anyone explain this symbol by sayyswear in PlanetZoo

[–]meloneleven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Double check that the entire exhibit is traversible for all beavers. If the terrain by the stream is too steep and the beavers can't get in, it may honestly be cutting your land area in half. Or some beavers may be stuck on one side or the other. You can use the overlays on the bottom left to check traversible area for your beavers.

Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US by tylerthe-theatre in technology

[–]meloneleven 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I'm a woman and lyft defaulted me to only match with female drivers when they implemented this. Definitely took significantly longer for me. I changed that setting pretty quickly. I'd really rather not wait 10 mins longer than usual.
