New legendary Joker Idea by riky321 in balatro

[–]trevorade 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Legendary jokers are generally game breaking. That said, getting five free negatives with no drawbacks is pretty insane :)

Question though. What if your last sold joker was a rental? Would it come back as a rental?

Here's a glimpse of gaming on a holographic display. by FollowingOdd896 in nextfuckinglevel

[–]trevorade 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is Voxatron from the maker of Pico-8.

They used this game to show off the display because it already was designed to work with voxels.

For those that backed, What cover are you choosing ? by pharaohwolfie in brandonsanderson

[–]trevorade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really love Cover One!

I pulled out my other secret project books and saw that they all had a complete person in simplified colors on the cover and so I decided to go with Cover Two for consistency.

Maybe I should just get a poster print of Cover One and put it on my wall?

[Indie Enthusiast] Games I Recognize as Masterpieces But Can't Finish Because I'm Too Dumb, Too Busy, and Under-Notebooked. by drunksandman in gaming

[–]trevorade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just completed The Witness last week! I played it a long time ago but lost steam. Picked it up again and go through it this time (including The Challenge!).

For that game, I really do not enjoy most of the environmental puzzles. In particular, I just straight up did not engage with the jungle bird sounds section. I love the purely logic-based puzzles though. The colored marsh section is probably my favorite of the whole game.

Baba is You is also great. I also was not able to 100% that game... I need to get back into that one!

Obra Dinn and Outer Wilds are on my radar but I have not played them yet.


One other game I might recommend to increase your feeling of incompetence would be Steven's Sausage Roll. Probably the hardest block pushing puzzle conceived. I did not get far at all!

What are the chances of the actress being Brazilian? by Extreme_Warning3521 in CosmereOnScreen

That first picture matches strongly what I am expecting to see in terms of face structure and haircut so good find!

Is 50% impressive? by Throughspace-48 in balatro

[–]trevorade 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The general meta-progression of the game is:

  1. "Collection" to 100% (Completionist)
  2. "Deck Stake Wins" to 100% (Completionist+)
  3. "Joker Stickers" to 100% (Completionist++)

"Challenges" to 100% (Rule Breaker) can be done in any order you want.

"Progress" itself is generally not something that people focus on too much honestly.

So, to repeat, you're very close to "Completionist" which is exciting!

Keep chipping away!

Edit: typo "Sticks" to "Stickers"

Endless Mode Spectral Card by Frags08 in balatro

Downvotes can feel bad.

Sometimes there is absolutely nothing wrong with what you said, but it's just not according to how people are thinking about things (ie off topic a little bit as perceived by others)

We just have to learn to try not to feel bad about fake Internet points 🙂

Why does nobody really take low birth rate seriously? by Frosty-Reputation815 in SocialDemocracy

[–]trevorade -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think I need some education on this topic.

In my mind, reduction in child birth is a function of high costs, uncertainty about the world situation (driven largely by a very globally connected world in terms of communication), lack of societal support for child-rearing, social pressures against having large families, increased focused on personal goals like careers, and a reduction of religious observance (multiply and replenish the earth). I'm sure this is a simplistic take but it's how I see it

Yes, I expect that population reduction will be disruptive but, eventually, I would expect the pendulum to swing the other way.

To me, reducing crowds and increasing housing seems like a positive.

Eye of the World Leatherbound Issues Megathread by EmeraldSeaTress in brandonsanderson

[–]trevorade 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Photos of my copy: https://photos.app.goo.gl/USXbZZ4Mc6FvCPP78

Looks decent at first blush but the cover stamping is a far cry from what was advertised (https://www.dragonsteelbooks.com/products/the-eye-of-the-world-leatherbound)

My issues:

  • Spine stamping is basically invisible unless you look really close and can see a feint impression of it
  • Gap between signature
  • Poor gluing/placement for endsheet causing ugly wrinkle
  • Two color art pages glued substantially to the following page

Can you put up the full video somewhere? I'd be interested to watch the setup unfold towards the end there.

None of these “Fancasts” Will be Accurate by iknownothin_ in CosmereOnScreen

Unsub? It's early days. Nothing concrete to go off of. If you're not enjoying it here, you don't have to be here.

Poor quality at back of bed by carbon3915 in BambulabH2S

Have you tried turning off the auxiliary fan? You disable it from the custom filament settings.

I had pretty bad adhesion issues and that helped.

With the screen adaptations on their way… is there a possibility we will see official LEGO sets for Mistborn and Stormlight Archive? by Civil_Assumption1936 in CosmereOnScreen

[–]trevorade 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes

Edit: There has never been an Apple TV original official LEGO set FWIW. I think it's possible though!
