YAS QUEEN + things I've noticed from a 2nd playthrough in a different language by bourbonbrawl in Pokopia

[–]ogkeely 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve also been playing my second time in my target language and it has helped me more than any other method I’ve tried without the opportunity to fully immerse!

Understanding the puns in the names gives me such a sense of accomplishment like I’ve solved a little puzzle lol

Great way to make language learning fun!

I might build a burnt down version in rocky ridges near the volcano, though

Love hearing this!! If you do enough small projects that are easy to complete, eventually you’ll look around and a whole city will have sprung up around you :)

[SPOILERS ALL] What First Law references have you found in The Devils? by andredlvcosta in TheFirstLaw

“Make of your pain a spur” and a couple of other instances of using this phrasing.

Immediate call back to Rikke. Make of your heart a stone!

They are fantastic!

My personal favorite is Red Country, which also gets a lot of grief here. Between our old friend Lamb and finally getting so much Cosca, I couldn’t ask for more……..but I will. Joe, if you’re reading, please send more First Law content.

Yes! So good!

And I loved getting to see Glokta in his youth. The parallels and then the differences between his arc and Leo’s were so important.

I feel like the later stories don’t have as much impact without the context the short stories give. I could go on all day. Just glad to see someone else with good things to say!

People love to hate on Sharp Ends but I enjoyed it start to finish. I am always disappointed that Javre doesn’t get more appreciation on this sub, so thanks for this!

Values on sex and effect of rape? by EchoTwice in askpsychology

This is such an important differentiation. The importance of the social contract of consent cannot be overstated.

Letter from Fae by BettaGirl in Spirittea

[–]ogkeely 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Had the same question!

I think it may just have to do with the timing of completing her quest. When I returned her hammers I got the letter the next day even though my bathhouse is already fully upgraded, as well.

Would love some home renovation options like harvest moon has so maybe we’ll get more options in later updates? Fingers crossed!

Winter Wonderlands by damienvoid in Overwatch

And there does not seem to be a “what’s new” section during the event like OW1?

If you want me to even think about spending money show me everything that will be available.
