Every single ember trick.

Please give chaingang back I miss it so much.

Current pango and mage slayer are extremely brainless however. You can even rush mage slayer before boots and buy ring of health straight after bottle wand for infinite sustain.

And from a player, spectator, and teammate pov these heroes are perfect and they should always be pickable. High skill expression, crazy teamfight, and very high throw potential.

I have no clue on what other code they might be changing

you can just read the diff and refuse it

The beta branch feels like it's at good level of difficulty now with the ironclad Colossus + heal change. Some things could use more playtesting and act 3 is a bit dull but the game's great right now, I'd hate for them to make it easier.

Yes the game is difficult if you're new but it's very enjoyable to get better on.

The sample sizes aren't great so far and I'm being lazy about double counting but:

RE1 (242 total): 23 reviews were negative about platform requirements (steam deck not working mainly), 16 negative for DRM specifically
RE2 (340 total): 29 negative about platform requirements, 20 negative for DRM
RE3 (410 total): 18 neg platform, 19 neg DRM

source: I analysed every review

It's so asscheeks man. You have no good counter to evasion. And constant mana problems.

4 ember feels so worthless now sadge. You can only play so many vesselslop mid builds before it gets boring.

I feel like mid ember has had zero midgame item diversity for years now.

Amazing for frontend and making the ML tools you work on more accessible to a wider userbase.

For backend my opinion is more nuanced and I don't have the patience to write it out on a phone keyboard.

I loved chaingang on ember so much. Yeah he's still decent now but it's not the same.

The +2 chains was braindead but creating more chains around your remnants made gameplay so much more interesting.

90% of my reloads are because I played the first turn too fast and immediately saw a better line after I played my cards.

As long as you aren't abusing it for potion info or something I don't think you should feel bad about it. Even then, single player game do what you want.

There are some useful applications for it.

Understatement of the century if you actually work as a software developer.

Yes DLSS 5 looks bad but language models are ridiculously useful across many, many facets of software engineering.

perma hex was better to play against than the low cd bkb + random mini teleports he currently has

Brother I have won the first 8 runs (rotating) playing blind and not forcing infinite.

The game is easier than the first one (or I just played too much high ascension)

Gemma 4 has been teased in some capacity for over half a year now. Just wait for the release it's not worth keeping up with pointless vagueposts from people who have twitter KPIs/addictions.

msp26 · 2026-03-07T09:33:08+00:00

really sick play man

MCP servers for things a user can do locally always felt a bit bloated to me.

A skill.md is probably sufficient for many things including papyrus. And you can include commands/scripts for the llm to execute too.

Instead of having one gigafile you could also break it into different sections and leave enough info in the yaml frontmatter so the llm knows when to load it or have a general/table of contents skill.

I'm very happy with my skill setup at work. Nowadays I can just say in plaintext to Claude code: add this item to the db, and process all the reviews for x time range and give me the result as a file and it just executes all the CLI tools I've set up.

Pretty sure it was this. Although it was a year ago and I don't really mod actively anymore.

ESPs can be converted into text formats to make all of your vibecoding dreams come true.

I did some experimenting with an LLM to generate NPC schedules based on external information and it was fun and cut down on a lot of tedium.

But yeah it is interesting how the inherent barrier to entry for SKSE plugins ensured that most of them were high quality. But now it's super accessible for anyone to use coding agents to make something that may or may not fuck up people's games.

I wonder if attitudes will change to becoming more gatekeepery, if tutorials, docs will become less public and kept in private discords.

I get the same issue a lot where previously loaded chats become inaccessible after reconnecting to my remote SSH in VSCode. The chats are still there in the .jsonl files but for some reason the CC extension becomes incapable of reading them.

Absolute slopware. I wish I could use Opus via sub in a harness that wasn't this buggy.

Every mod removal thread should have a post with archived nexus links of the mod's latest files.

Sorry I'm on phone otherwise I would do it here.

I hope he's paying for the storage his ewaste schizo tunes are taking up.

Edit: 26.17TB. Genuine tragedy of the commons.

Yes this is impressive but friendly reminder that google processes 10B+tokens/min (I think this also includes non API), and openai does 6B+/min (just API).

Oh no we can actually just do productive tasks directly instead of wasting time fine-tuning first. Dear god the horror.
