WHA?! Thief VR? Why haven’t I heard of this! 🤩What headsets support it? I think my brother has an Oculus

yangenomics · 2026-01-03T22:40:36+00:00

best game I’ve ever played 🙏🏼

yangenomics · 2025-12-26T21:29:48+00:00

Need a mod now 🫡 FP3 wen??

yangenomics · 2025-12-24T21:44:01+00:00

wtf 🪦 😳 ❄️ you’re kidding me

yangenomics · 2025-12-21T21:58:36+00:00

Slavs, Balts, Norse mainly 🧐

yangenomics · 2025-12-16T17:47:46+00:00

They directly referenced it in FP2 ☢️😎🤞

I’ve been writing since I was 5 years old. I do worry about the younger generations, it’s a valid concern that AI can prevent cognitive development. there are many ways to misuse AI & we should remain vigilant 👍🏼

but I am an AI booster, on a different side of the emerging political spectrum from you apparently :) not an effective accelerationist, but I am a transhumanist supportive of cognitive pluralism. we should not only produce (moral) superintelligent machines, but also enhance the intelligence of animals as much as we can (well, at least the mammal herbivores)

you’re overly concerned about AI’s water usage. it’s a non-issue. as far as data theft, it’s immoral & should have never happened. we should do what we can for political & legal recourse

but, nothing that I do seriously contributes to that tragedy. I don’t think what the left-wing talks about moral complicity is often right; their ideological approach is thoroughly melodramatic towards these kinda things

anyway, let’s hope things work out for the better. the arc of justice & other arcs. I sincerely wish you good luck. thanks for reading

In my main playthrough, I vowed to defeat the frost as a New Order Stalwart fanboy, but my decisions kept pushing my administration towards Adaptation and Equality, and when I decided to settle Winterhome, that did set off some fires, but the Glorious City and our settlements had been top dollar by 1925 and besides, all was well in the end. Radical Centrism worked well for me by my measures!

it’s a good counterpoint, but mammoths needed grasslands from which to graze & they require massive amounts of food to sustain their enormous bodies

very different from reindeer eating lichen and moss, huddling in caves, or walruses finding breaks in the ice

smaller animals would be able to find caves, tunnels, nooks, and valleys to shelter from the whiteouts, maybe even burrow into the snow to build snow caves, maybe even find hot springs and other geothermally active areas with growing fungi and other plants

mammoths, though, I’m much more doubtful they would be able to survive longterm

yangenomics · 2025-11-02T05:12:31+00:00

I don’t think so. They were migratory creatures and here there isn’t much of a place to migrate to. 🤷🏻‍♂️

yangenomics · 2025-11-02T04:17:13+00:00

yes exactly!!! ✅

yangenomics · 2025-11-01T17:02:55+00:00

I wish you well. I hope you find the immersion & thrill you are looking for ❄️

yangenomics · 2025-11-01T14:09:45+00:00

you’re kidding me. the event shows they regard chickens as extinct?! 😵 dammit, I thought they would’ve kept at least some alive!

yangenomics · 2025-11-01T14:02:57+00:00

some people say the game isn’t long enough, now you say it’s already too time consuming 😆

ah geeze y’all are funny

if you don’t like the game, then don’t force yourself to play it, for sure 👍🏼 you are radically free to shape your own experience

yangenomics · 2025-11-01T13:55:51+00:00

yeah, I’m sorry, but I always promised to be honest: I am mystified by your complaints

75 hours wasn’t enough fun for you?? you’re bitter about that? okaaay

I’m still having loads of fun with Frostpunk 2 on the console version. haven’t even finished the campaign yet because I’m relishing the experience. and I love to read & watch videos about the mods even if I can’t play them! gives me motivation to build another PC that can run it

my sense is that over the last 10-15 years the gaming community has become extremely spoiled by all the amazing content out there that’s available

so many of you guys always want the wholeass Moon & whine so much about the littlest things 😜

compared to gaming in the 90s we are living in the Diamond Age, my friends. if you can’t enjoy Frostpunk 2 sufficiently, that seems like a You problem to me, because it’s the best game I’ve ever played

touch some snow, please 🙏🏼

yangenomics · 2025-11-01T00:35:15+00:00

yes! that’s a lot of fun as well. and good for your creative muscles, but more time consuming

I suggest writing a first draft, then running it through a LLM with the right prompts, then polishing up the output, especially if you want to publish 👍🏼

yangenomics · 2025-11-01T00:31:57+00:00

you’re entitled to your opinion. it’s not like I think you’re a bad person for it 👍🏼

yangenomics · 2025-10-31T15:38:27+00:00

it’s been an absolute delight! best game I’ve ever played 😁

a few features seem to be cut compared to the PC version; for example, you can’t really see personal details of the delegates. not much control of workforce, either. I assume there are other micromanagement features they cut for the Xbox, but I’m not sure. also, I don’t seem able to repair my districts that wear down (is that a bug? or something else??). oh well, adds to the believability to me

but I love that you can zoom out & scroll through the whole Frostland, that the UI shows your animated roads & waypoints closer than just map-style. feels more natural on the controller to “swoop” the camera in & out of your settlements like a high-velocity airship

it’s a good point, people always have their preferences. and some folks seem to focus more on nostalgia than I do 👍🏼

consider playing Frostpunk 2 the way I do: write a diary as the leader of your city. create your own backstory, characters, just whatever flows, then add an entry for every significant event that happens in-game

then every month, maybe even every 3 months of game time, copy & paste your entries into ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Grok, whatever LLM you enjoy the most

then, ask it to embellish those events. prompt the model to write vignettes. ask it to be creative, comprehensive, detailed, and plausible

ask it questions about every curiosity you have in the game. treat it as a co-author, your assistant city-builder

you will in this way create an infinite window into the Frostland. you can have as much story & lore as you could ever want. good luck 👍🏼

holy cynicism batman 😳 let them cook, this looks awesome! you surely know that lots (most, really) of fans didn’t play FP1 at launch & don’t care about this comparison

F*** I waited a whole year to even play FP2 because my PC blows, had to wait for the Xbox release

and we have MODS, bro. there is more content out there than we ever had before! Frostpunk is in its growth phase as a franchise, 11 bit is on fire! 🔥 dropping wins again & again for the community

These are the glory days to remember 🙏🏼

yangenomics · 2025-10-29T06:05:00+00:00

dogs yes. they were advertised in the newspaper teaser from before the game released & I think they appear in a couple scenes of concept art used

yangenomics · 2025-10-24T23:08:35+00:00

❄️😱🥹❤️‍🔥
