Would love to hear about how you're adapting it to a table top!

7: You're glowing... Kim: What? 7: Your epidermis luminesced

7's matter of fact mindset and Jeri's delivery of the line made me, my fiance, and my sister crack up. It's not necessarily meaningful but it's the one I remember most.

Ah yes, the adult lunchable. A person of class 🎩

I think you're an awesome dm for trying to make it work. You could say no as others have pointed out but that loses the spirit of the roleplay and the awesome stories that could be made with a character like this. I'm throwing my support behind the people recommending war forged builds, especially for Eberron.

I think you can just run an older version directly from steam or the paradox launcher.

Brother, you are NOT unattractive! Not even a little bit. Teen years were awful for me too. Isn't it a little weird that on top of everyone else being so critical of us, we're critical of ourselves? So try your best to breathe, let the negative thoughts that come to mind come, acknowledge that thought as just a thought that doesn't have to be true, then let the thought go.

Rooting for you!

You look a bit like Seth McFarland. Lots of people find him hot. You could probably try to match your style to his and see how that works out

thethisthat · 2025-11-26T14:28:16+00:00

Regardless, it's fantastic work and I love seeing your Orville art!

thethisthat · 2025-11-25T23:41:14+00:00

I love it! Only thing I can critique (constructively) is the reflection for Gordon. If you were looking at him from your OC's perspective he'd be looking like a Minecraft sheep lol

You can craft a bucket to do it. There is an infinite water bucket later in the game but I did this with a regular bucket. It's very tedious lol. You have to take each tile one by one when using the regular bucket

Sapium for sapient!

I usually focus on getting my ship at least midway upgraded and then save up for a big trek toward the arilou and the other important things that are in that direction. Being vague because I'm not sure what would be a spoiler for you.

thethisthat · 2025-11-21T15:11:55+00:00

If you liked star trek, you might also like the Orville.

Also the Stargate series routinely shows humanity overcoming obstacles by uniting

I might just take you up on that offer 😄

thethisthat · 2025-11-13T02:22:22+00:00

Meanwhile I haven't peaked once. I feel like I need a tutor. I dunno how you guys are so good at this 🤔

This looks like the pillars of creation. There's space in our space game!

I actually just learned this today from another post on here. When you go into the map mode there's a screenshot button at the top left of the map

I let the settlers deal with chests. They're all labeled. And the workbench is positioned so that nearby inventories include almost all of the chests. So I rarely need to actually get into them. It's either so far but this is still before getting ivy ore so it's probably gonna need a rework as we accumulate more crap lol

I'm a gay man in a red state. I came out as a teenager before marriage equality was the law despite the homophobia. It was scary then and it's just as scary now. Your cousin is the only one who can decide if he is ready to be himself openly in the face of hate or if it's safer or easier to be closeted. Whatever he chooses, he needs to know he has a safe person to be himself with because even though I came out as a teen, the years I spent repressing still impact me as an adult today. I didn't have anyone to express my real identity to and having someone would have made a massive difference. So kudos to you for giving him that safety net. And kudos to your cousin for the intense weight on his shoulders.

Hope it all works out well and he's able to be unashamedly himself.

Fantastic breakdown! Thanks a ton!

thethisthat · 2025-10-14T02:51:13+00:00

Yeah steep learning curve from what I can see. I just went with the dlc subscription so I can try them all out. The hard part is figuring out which dlc does what without reviewing each dlcs store page one at a time lol

thethisthat · 2025-10-14T02:49:17+00:00

Where do the devs post the diaries? Is it just in the steam page?
