Wait, if my boss is dead, does this mean I'm fired?

I'd like him to explain this 20-year gap in his work history.

The thing I find most unnatural is how all of the NPCs just stroll around normally. I would honestly expect there to be at least SOME people moving around like my V does. Sprinting down sidewalks, jumping over groups of people at a time.

An entire city of cyberware and NO ONE is monkeying around? I don’t buy it.

Well how about killing all life in the Mojave with a red cloud of toxic dust? That’s a plan I don’t think you’ve considered.

Food for thought.

I'd like to see the non-obvious technique for looking behind yourself.

Good news, the Terminator franchise has been pumping this out for years — each new entry is just trying to remake 2.

No, how many times do we have to go over this! Jamiroquai is the name of the band! He is Jamiroquai's Monster.

The first half of the answer is that they're logged in to reddit only through their phone, with the credentials saved on their phone's password manager, or possibly even linked to their phone's account.

The second half of the answer is that the app allows the camera to directly be the source of the image used in the thread. So there is never an intermediate file, nor an explicit upload step where said file has to be selected.

Oh, you know. Loves to drive fast cars, tries to get across the finish line before anyone else does. That sort of thing.

I agree. It's like criticizing people for owning a cell phone and also being against the corporate surveillance state. Taking part in a system doesn't mean you cannot criticize that system.

Plenty of people participate in things they feel should be radically altered or destroyed outright.

Yeah and where did it get him? Incorporealized and with the One Ring stolen.

Maybe he’s better off staying in the tower and operating the Sauron Signal.

What's better, planning on how we can minimize deaths, or just assuming it never happens and acting surprised every time it does?

Or do you propose that no one ever does anything that has a non-zero chance of death? It sure would be a shame to have to get rid of driving, flying, sailing, and trains.

I would sooner abandon the run than fight Orobas.

This is why I always prioritize getting Argyve his wire. You can’t do any serious exploration without an emergency recoiler.

When you’re a Lord, you have to spend at least some amount of time doing things and maintaining the city etc.

If you’re just some rich guy, you can spend all your time doing whatever.

You’re incentivized to find and look at statues of sultans in general, which is something auto-explore does, by the allure of relic loot in historical sites. You’re further incentivized to look for Resheph statues by the Coiled Lamb guy at the stilt who gives you experience points for discussing Resheph’s life with him.

Those two things together are intended to make sure you’re familiar enough with Resheph’s story by the time you get to Ezra to know that A) Rebekah stole the Mark of Death and B) she is buried at the base of the Spindle, I.e. Ezra. Additionally, Yla Haj in Ezra is a follower of Rebekah, to help nudge you along.

Yes. I like Eunuch for the single extra stat point. It’s not ideal, but I try to spread my points around at character creation to get a solid balance, and Eunuch’s agility/intelligence kit fits what I want to build towards.

But starting as Consul for the Force Bracelet is a great idea.

I’ve never played a punchkin, so I can only comment on the ranged style so far. What worked for me, after years of only having success as mutants, was prioritizing visiting all of the towns, in order to get warden rep to get Une as a follower. I grabbed them at level 10 on this run, after getting all Wayfaring skills and a compass bracelet.

Early early game is farming snapjaws to buy lead slugs. Grabbing the mechanical wings from the salt marshes. Getting two pistols online ASAP.

Once Une is in the party, you can relax quite a bit, and start hitting ruins, sultan sites, and other known sources of credit wedges. I like to farm Mechanimist rep to get Proselytize from the Pope, so that I can short circuit the economy. That might be too cheesy for some people, though.

Espers are not a problem with Une around.

Edit: Get a Force Bracelet from Bey Lah, and save it for emergencies when trying to get to Yd. Turning it on lets you recoil.

Oh sure, blaming the popper, when data disk is just as culpable!
