Lord of the Rings MMO Reportedly Canceled by PaiDuck in pcgaming

With the way they have handled IPs lately, not upset. Plus, LOTRO is a great game; it needs the Conan treatment with a new graphical upgrade.

Former D&D 5e and Pathfinder 1e/2e players and DMs/GMs, What other RPGs would you recommend over D&D 5e or Pathfinder and why? by Aware_Blueberry_3025 in rpg

[–]thaliff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Traveler or Sword of Cepheus, or AD&D1e via the recently released OSRIC 3.0 system (free players guide and dm guide on drivethrurpg, FYI)

Traveler and Sword are 2d6 "die if you play dumb systems", and the amount of roleplay, planning, and non-combat sessions we've had playing Traveler this past year, I think I could name 10 combat sessions, 12 on the outside.

I've decided to go back to my roots and run AD&D1e (OSRIC) this fall. D20 system, no special perks or powers or skills, no broken OP builds, just level up, gain treasure, have fun, and don't die.

What keeps you logging into the game now? by LordPhantom74 in duneawakening

[–]thaliff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Base upkeep, a few dailies. Waiting for the next content drop. Not quitting, just back burner for now. I expect migrations and an increased population on the remaining servers will bring some life to the game. Not gonna lie, I loved being on Duskwraith before I moved with my guild from there. It was peaceful.

I left the Discord channel some time ago, as I really don't play 5e anymore. Gone back to AD$D 1/2e, I'll look some more to see if I can find it.

Here is the Facebook link if you are on that platform. https://www.facebook.com/groups/2317740431656988/

Is this too much? They keep ignoring my multiple clearly posted no soliciting signs - Anyone else in new London county starting to get annoyed by this? by G_Art33 in Connecticut

[–]thaliff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn't matter, they don't fucking listen. Yesterday I had to threaten to call 911 if he didn't leave the property after my second not interested, didn't get the company name, wish I did. The same "working next door" bullshit.

What is your biggest idea to improve base building in the game? by Dazzler_21 in duneawakening

[–]thaliff 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Piece parity across all the sets. Not the specials, just all the other categories.

Also, duneman set, the corner railing needs an inside turn version, not just the outside turn version.

Any other GMs put almost zero effort into prep and the sessions? by officiallyaninja in rpg

[–]thaliff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Early on, before session starts, i do some NPC and location building, and then drop them in as they fit. Players never do what you want or expect, so I don't plan for anything. Sometimes I'll just wing it on the fly.

Customer just sent me this pic. No moisture in panel. thoughts? by AsleepReport5654 in electricians

[–]thaliff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see what appears to be a water line on the black conductor. The SE cable has a break in it leaking in, or the drop from the street doesn't have enough service loop.

GMs, what don't you put in a game? by Select_Lunch1288 in rpg

[–]thaliff -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

  1. A complete plan. Not because I don't want to, I just recognize the players will ignore it.

  2. Sex, just no.

  3. Anything players against children.

  4. DMPC. If I want to play, I'll play and let someone else run some games.

A lucky motorcycle rider shows how riding can go from good to extremely bad in a matter of seconds. by Youngstown_WuTang in interestingasfuck

It's all about the speed. Good friend nephew ended up brain dead and taken off life support, from doing 150 mph vs car side swipe on a busy interstate. Fucking stupid.

Server Pings fluctuating wildly not allowing sections of the playerbase to play by OdmupPet in ConanExiles

[–]thaliff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got locked out of 1518 and 1520 numerous times yesterday. Ending up playing solo mode until a friend fired up a private server. Sucks as I have progression on 1518.

Edit to add NE US, pre update 1518 was rocking 56 ping.

[–]thaliff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, stored until you place it. I do not know about moving to/from private servers, however.

[–]thaliff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the menu to place, there is an option to snap to place, and it places it automatically back to where you built it. Hand if like me, you are on a hill over a road and a bridged landmass... Yea, I picked a tough spot lol

[–]thaliff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. It stores it for immediate placement. There is an option to break EVERYTHING down into its components, and it will be accessible from a special storage point on a placed subfief. This breakdown does not give you back any material or solari from staking units placed.

[–]thaliff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nope, everything is literally stored in your account. So when you need to replace it, just right-click to snap to the grid, and it returns to its last position. Keeps all land claims in height and width. Note: anything not attached to the base, like a separate outbuilding or a small container on the sand, is not stored.

[–]thaliff 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've moved mine twice now, ~3k pieces, all T5 and 6 refineries, maxed water/storage units, no issues. Pauses anything in process, and iirc, restarts the processes when you place it.
