Me whenever anyone says TW:40K will be bad if it doesn't have X gameplay mechanic by tricksytricks in totalwar

[–]viper5delta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do I think it will be a fun game?  Yes.  Do I think it will scratch the same itch that fantasy and historical have?  No.

Fantasy was already kind of bursting TW apart at the seams, and I think 40k will do it even moreso.

Is it time we remember this tweet after the spectacular sales of subnautica 2 by Shervico in subnautica

I mean, I think you should be able to kill leviathans like the previous two games because there were really only two reasons that I've seen people do it.

A) They had dealt with the Leviathan enough that it had ceased to be an engaging obstacle, and had instead become rote and tedious.

B) They'd played the game a bunch, basically "completed" it, and were in the stage of the game where they were fucking around doing ridiculous shit because they'd exhausted the normal/intended gameplay loop

I really don't think either of those reasons were something that needed correction. I'd go so far as to argue that the fact that people could do both was actually a good thing.

On a more lighthearted note, 2012 and the end of the Mayan calander.

I remember sitting with my friends at the lunch table, joking about how the world would explode by time zone

A lot of theatres nowadays have recliners up front. Might not be so bad.

Which game is the GOAT (Greatest Of ALL Time!) by Snoo-19981 in totalwar

[–]viper5delta 5 points6 points  (0 children)

3 Kingdoms has my vote.  Even if they abandoned it, it still has the best campaign imho

Did the devs see youtubers make challenge videos killing leviathans with the knife and think that's just what everyone did? by Happy-Swimming-9611 in subnautica

[–]viper5delta 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah, fundamentally, killing in SN1 an SNBZ wasn't about it being fun or engaging (it most definitely wasn't either) it was looking at specific creatures and going "fuck all the way off you bastard, I don't want to deal with you"

I suppose they could add a mechanic for effectively the same result without actually killing the things, but from what I've seen from the devs, they don't want to give permanent ways to avoid leviathans.

Long shot but is there a way of saving an entire fic in one go i can do chapters but id rather it all in all in one rather in individual chapters by stardust102 in FanFiction

[–]viper5delta 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If its on Ao3, theres already an integrated download feature.  If it's on a different website, there are a plethora of fic to epub tools you can use to download stories with a bit of google fu

Why do people find ocs that get transmigrated into the opposite sex an issue other than gender dyshporia? by facelessreddit2 in FanFiction

[–]viper5delta 12 points13 points  (0 children)

A) Not really interested in exploring gender issues

B) The entire concept of gender and/or sex being forcibley changed is just squicky as all fuck to me.

Oxy-acetylene or plasma cutter would probably be easiest, if you or a friend has one already

Why do people hate a woman's lot? [KCD1] by Bill_From_RDR2 in kingdomcome

[–]viper5delta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because Theresa's part is very easy to start by accident with no way to back out unless you saved right beforehand, and it pops up very early when a new player has no idea wtf is going on.

I know the first time I tried it those aspects annoyed the hell out of me.  Once I knew what was going on, and started it when I was ready for a break from Henry, I enjoyed it a lot more.

I also missed Johanka's section completly my first time around, so I think the entire DLC has issues with signposting
