The worst kind of an Internet-herpaderp. Internet-urpo pahimmasta päästä.

  • in my case, we'd be starting from zero. No real prior saves or anything.

    But, thanks, I guess we'll be on the look out for anomalies once we inevitably lose sight of eachother :D

  • I guess it's time for my yearly check of the game. Got it eternities ago on sale, iirc before any expansion updates and it was... meh?

    I've gone through some plot arc about

    some fellow trapped in vr/simulation/whatever

    it was... all right. Didn't care a bit about all the basebuilding or ship upgrading tho, it was fairly enjoyable as a walking sim :D

    I guess there's quite a bit more in the game now, like (trading?) fleets?

    If I were to coop this with a friend, I've understood there's some in-game friend-service with join codes, but does joining another player require some traveling to find them or anything or do I just spawn to them when starting a coop session?

  • I'd throw memtest on a throwaway usb stick and let it run tests overnight or so, unless errors appear immediately.

    Easier than doing a reinstall. :)

  • Does the restarts happen on idle, gaming/heavy load, or just randomly?

    Idle/Random tends to point to ram sticks being faulty, run memtest for few hours or so?

    Heavy load crashing could mean flaky power supply.

  • huh. the 2nd game looks like a game mode for the chikkyhorse but just.. for some reason separated as a standalone game.

  • push to public git repo or archive.org, if you have the rights to the games/assets/etc.

    Even if the games are ages old mobile nonsense, they're always someone's nostalgia bombs

  • of course that's a thing

  • we must go deeper, surely you can launch minecraft in minecraft? :P

  • "I use minecraft, btw" was in the comments of the demo video. Had a giggle.

  • I believe I've been to Ulfric's throne room few times, but can't remember why, probably some sidequests take you there as well? I do think I've done the war-quest but for the life of me I can't recall which side I was on, or if it was good/bad/meh.

    Usually in this kind of games I tend to do few runs to see each side of mutually exclusive paths, but... well, it's been a while, like a decade according to steam.

  • could be, honestly not even sure - it's been a while since last visit to Skyrim, and even then it likely was just random exploration and sidequests! :P

  • heh, it happens.

    Frankly, I didn't even regognize Ulfric either once I got to meet him later in the game. Sidequests for days until progressing anything main plot related, heh.

  • Admittedly I haven't played Skyrim in ages, but surely Ralof doesn't die during the intro? One of the prisoners does die when they try to escape but not Ralof.

    according to hastily googled 'scrolls wiki: https://elderscrolls.fandom.com/wiki/Ralof

    ... However, Alduin attacks Helgen, and Ralof is able to escape. After reaching shelter, Ralof frees the Dragonborn from their bindings and asks for help against the Imperial soldiers. Later, the Dragonborn has the opportunity to rejoin Ralof and escape from Helgen. ...

    he's part of few quest lines later on as well.

    edit: but truth be told, even with name, I wouldn't have regognized him after helgen anyway.

  • For novelty I do install msedit, because nostalgia is rose tinted. But for realsies it's vim, not because I'm good at using it, but I'm familiar enough.

  • Just a hunch, but it's not performance why peeps are migrating away from windows

  • It's been a minute since I last tried it, but: Forge: The Magic: The Gathering Rules Engine https://card-forge.github.io/forge/ & https://github.com/Card-Forge/forge

    It's essentially MTG: Shandalar - but free & opensource. So basically you start with some starter deck, roam the lands to defeat color-coded wizards and dungeons for ante-cards and money (which you use to just buy cards from vendors), build deck, and ultimately defeat the elemental gods etc. Shandalar. :)

    The game has actual MTG cards (can be downloaded via the game's menus).

  • I kinda wish the game would detect modding, or the easymode at minimum, and hold the achievements. I don't particularly care one way or the other, but some soulslike-folks probably will get their panties in a twist for dilluting the global achievement-stats.. maybe? But oh well.

    The exploration aspect is pretty cool, there's hidden tomb-dungeons etc everywhere. Other games where I've felt exploration was fun were Skyrim, Cyberpunk and (similarly to you) Subnautica.

  • I dunno, 80's glamrock church could be dope, but it wouldn't be dark souls anymore

  • Been chipping away with Elden Ring, but I do use seamless coop for the off chance my friends want to join, and some easymode mod because I am so unbelievably bad at these games.

    Having fun, but it's funny when every time I think I could do with less easymode, some enemy absolutely curbstomps me. Maybe one day I can manage without:P

    I do like how there's very little waypoint-guidance, but some todo-list for things I have agreed to would be nice. But that's the style, I guess.

  • you think you're getting off the call if it isn't?
