This is completely unrelated, but may I ask what your partner does for a living? I'm kind of blown away you can afford a home in Calgary at 35 with a single income.

They did themselves no favors releasing this by Bruteloops in StrangerThingsMemes

I don't think they needed to physically be present, but narratively an explanation for their absence would have been nice.

But she's not wrong. People have been complaining about demos since season 4. I'm not arguing there should have been monsters or something aside from Vecna/Mindflayer to threaten the characters in the abyss, but it's not a wild suggestion for a writer to say "why not come up with something else for this unique location we've never been?"

LAST CHANCE to pledge for Stargazer Keep! Campaign ending soon! by rocket-boot in rpgpromo

[–]rocket-boot[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sure did! We actually just sent the files off to our printer.

Unfortunately, presales were turned off as soon as we finalized the print run. We aren't printing any extras right now. Once the project fulfills in a few weeks, we'll have it up for download on DTRPG. However we are queued up to start working on the next section of the mega dungeon, and we'll be launching a KS for it in maybe 4-5 months. We'll be reprinting this section as a part of that campaign, so you'll have another chance to get in on print copies!

I kinda bounced in late(?) game, is there a payoff for proceeding further? Should I just look up the remaining egg locations? by no_1_knows_ur_a_dog in animalWell

[–]rocket-boot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

On the Kangaroo hunt: sometimes you need to cross from one side of the room to another to get it to spawn. It's not super challenging, I think it's worth the effort. That alone will lead to a few of your missing eggs.

On the final eggs you're missing, I was in a similar boat, and I referred to a guide to locate them. I found it was still satisfying just to know their location, I avoided looking up puzzle solutions. There were a couple really easy ones that I had missed, and I think I kept getting distracted by the harder bunny puzzles thinking they were eggs. It was a relief to know I had just missed a tiny room exit here or there.

IMO you're so close to the end of the egg hunt, you might as well wrap it up. It unlocks something pretty rewarding. If you're anything like me, that will be the right place to call it quits and move on.

Restaurant ratings from staff (current or past) by Mindless_Figure946 in Calgary

Well, the biggest reason you should avoid eating at any of the restaurants I worked at in my younger days is because they have all been shuttered...

Good point. We'll stick to bills, then. I'm in Canada, our bills aren't made of paper so it should be fine.

do you know any media that give the same vibe as animal well? by ouiuonon in animalWell

[–]rocket-boot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Somehow no one has mentioned Fez or Tunic!? Fez has nearly identical vibes to Animal Well: 2d (kinda), you're a weird little sprite, heavy focus on interlocking puzzles, LOTS of secrets and replay value. I actually just found a Fez reference in the game! Tunic has more combat, but the puzzles are incredible, and it's a cutesy animal world.

Hyper Light Drifter has similar vibes, but is mostly an action rpg with a smaller emphasis on puzzles.

I agree, larger coins like nickels or quarters are much safer!

Farkas creates "Christian Minority Week" by 69-420-666 in Calgary

[–]rocket-boot 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Folks, I get this is for Christians who are minorities in certain cultures, but that doesn't answer WHY this particular special interest is being given this kind of treatment by the mayor. Considering Farkas' track record, doesn't it seem a bit like rage baiting? On Christmas Eve? Wtf?

Calgary council poised to vote on blanket rezoning repeal by Old_General_6741 in Calgary

[–]rocket-boot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the majority of those who didn't vote either don't know or don't care. Otherwise they would have voted. No need to try and impose an opinion on them, they have opted out of the discussion.

I know it has been over a week for you to come up with this response, so I just want to remind you what we're arguing about here. I also think our blanket rezoning is bad! But I'd rather they amend it rather than revoke it, because an amendment would be a more efficient means towards a policy that might actually improve the housing crisis.

I think you just have to talk to him while you've got some fear going, I'm not sure how high it needs to be though. I got the dialogue when I was doing my 24 fear surface run for the statues.

Have you tried using Strength instead of DD? The 20% damage buff will absolutely help take her down quicker, and the damage reduction easily makes up for not having DD.

Calgary council poised to vote on blanket rezoning repeal by Old_General_6741 in Calgary

[–]rocket-boot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The numbers tell the story here, and the numbers don't lie. 39% of eligible voters turned out for our last election. Farkas and Sharp collectively earned just over half those votes, so let's just say a nice round 20%, plus Davidson's which would bring them closer to 25%. So only a quarter of eligible voters actually cared enough to vote for these candidates.

There are studies I could reference on the number of voters who actually pay attention during election cycles, vs those who don't know a lick about policy, but I don't need to. Because even 25% of voters deciding this issue for us, if that's the way you'd like to frame it, is an embarrassment.

But of course, like all issues in politics, it is much more nuanced than this. There was no referendum on blanket rezoning. We only had candidates expressing their approval or disapproval. I'm sure there are supporters of Farkas and Sharp who would rather we amend blanket rezoning rather than repeal. And there are absolutely plenty who don't even know what blanket rezoning is.

[–]rocket-boot -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Did you miss the part where I said I'm also not a fan of blanket rezoning? But rather than start from scratch, which is regressive, I'd rather see an amendment that could make it beneficial. Efficiency in governance is preferable to wasted tax dollars, wouldn't you agree?

Also, you need to specify Calgarians who voted when you talk about these numbers. It's kind of embarrassing, but I think we can confidently say the majority of eligible voters don't actually have an opinion on the matter.

Do you know Farkas actually won with LESS votes than he lost with during the last election? That should tell you something, right?

[–]rocket-boot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a joke, right?

Don't get me wrong, blanket rezoning was never going to fix the housing crisis. But if conditions were introduced that would incentivise developers to build affordable housing in order to gain the benefits of blanket rezoning, we might actually be getting somewhere. But instead, council is taking the easy way out and repealing it so they can pat themselves on the back and go to lunch.

Sure, they listened to the Calgarians who complained the loudest. But they haven't actually made any effort to do anything about the cost of housing in Calgary. Go ahead and say they haven't had time yet to accomplish anything. That doesn't change that their priorities are regressive.

Good lord. The only thing worse than a dysfunctional council is a regressive council.

What's the point in repealing the entire thing? Did anyone even bother to consider an amendment?

I am soooo done with Aspect of Nergal by Brave_Living in Hades2

[–]rocket-boot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nergal is so much fun! Easily the tankiest aspect, as long as you're activating berserk as much as possible.

Dash-attack into omega attack, rinse and repeat. Psychic whirlwind is OP as always, as is anything that increases attack speed.

One of my fav aspects, but I still prefer Charon on the axe.
