They were added a month ago when they did the winter event. The devs only vaguely hinted at new ghosts in the patch notes, and I actually thought the hint was instead talking about the krampus model they give the ghost during the event. I was very surprised when I got on to look at the overhauled journal and saw three new ghosts hidden in there.
The day he says something I agree with is the day I reevaluate everything I believe.
The three newest ghost types have been a lot of fun to play against. My one friend has taken to calling the Obambo “Obama”, which has lead to some interesting quotes like “Obama’s trying to eat my ass :(”. Have you encountered any of them yet?
Sometimes we gotta think about our wants and think are they really a need? Or can we get by with less till the alternatives can get better.
It’s not really that simple. I don’t need to convince my entire friend group to switch to Lemmy in order to get some use out of it. Best I can do is convince people to use modded discord clients like vencord and aliucord for most nitro features instead of paying for it.
Cube chick is definitely the best of the bunch, though they’re all winners here. Better baby animals were long overdue.
I never got to play the 3DS growing up unfortunately. I loved the GBC/A and DS when I was younger, and I was like the target demographic for the whole 3D thing, thinking it was super fucking cool. But when my parents bought me one for Christmas when it was new, I lost it outside like the very next day. I was too embarrassed to tell them, so I pretended that I still had it for months before eventually “the dog chewed it up” one night.
Look at the keyboard in the box. The layout makes zero sense and several keys are sunken in.
As far as the font is concerned, I noticed the R in “ANSWER” looks different from the R directly the the right of it.
Edit: haha, 3 of us mentioned the stuff in the box at basically the same time.
Yeah, Pinta is currently what I’m using as a replacement. It’s more or less what I need, but the UI is difficult to navigate and leaves a lot to be desired (though tbf that might be my paint.net muscle memory fighting me). I do appreciate Pinta being around though, I’ve tried other alternatives and Pinta is definitely the best of the bunch, at least for what I’m looking for.
It’s been an unfortunately difficult problem for me to troubleshoot since it only happens occasionally. I appreciate the help though, I’ll give disabling it a shot (it was enabled.)
I’ve been on Mint for about two months now. Took some getting used to and there was a pretty large chunk of stuff to learn that I wasn’t really expecting (I feel like Linux users tend to greatly oversell how easy of a switch it is), but I’ve got most things figured out now. AlternativetTo.net has been a lifesaver and has helped me find replacements for most programs I use regularly. Though I still desperately miss paint.net.
Now I just need to figure out why my audio crackles sometimes when I’m playing games.
I also added a shader pack for myself. I’m not usually big on these as i feel like they make the game kind of fuzzy and crank up the bloom
Same. I like the real time shadows and water waves, but the extreme bloom and sunshafts most shaders add are just not for me. I like being able to see my screen!
Honestly that’s a fair point. It’s been a long while since I’ve played Starbound, and even longer since I played it vanilla. Forced is definitely not the word I should have used, but I do remember feeling constantly pushed towards completing the story because I enjoy fighting bosses. I also remember genuinely hating engaging with it any time I did. Nothing like searching for an hour for floran relics only to find a planet with two less than I needed. The game desperately needs a way to track down a specific species’ settlement. It just wasn’t fun in the slightest, and I would have preferred no story over what the game got. Boss fights are fun (even if I think most of Starbound’s are too easy), and it sucks that you’re forced to progress through the exact same lame and repetitive repeat of the story between each boss.
The tutorial dungeon is the worst though. A true pinnacle of terrible sandbox game design. It ain’t short, it’s the exact same dungeon every single time with the same enemies and loot, and it’s strictly required to make any progress whatsoever.
i just went and did the tutorial, which i avoid like the plague due to being drained by it.
Yup. God, Starbound has so much missed potential by focusing so heavily on a bad story. It’d be one thing if it were there in the background, but you’re basically forced to play through it every single time. The dungeons are extremely repetitive (this would have been a great chance for some procedural generation), the boss fights are way too easy, and the whole portion of the game where you just search for relics to scan isn’t fun or interesting at all. Not a great design decision for a sandbox game that should otherwise have a ton of replayability.
Nice. Last I played, I recently found out colonists’ moods are locked the second their enter a coma. I of course abused this by turning my colonists into unaging sangophages, getting them as happy as possible, having them deathrest permanently, and then giving them a psychic harmonizer.
Eventually I got my hands on a modified sangophage gene with psychic hypersensitivity, and it was smooth sailing from there. My little meat joy batteries would each give my colonists up to like +40 mood in a massive radius around my base.
Rimworld. As always.
How’s the Geneva checklist coming along?
I believe they were talking about meta’s literal smart glasses being ugly, not their VR headsets. They look really silly, the frame is way too thick.
I actually think the Quests are some of the better looking headsets.
Come on now, I think everyone’s tried the ol’ teeth-with-pliers trick at least once in their life.
Depends on why they’re so anti-AI. AI slop replacing artists isn’t the only harm it causes.
Perhaps, but my only point is that the CEO likely isn’t pro-trump. I’ve seen zero evidence for that aside from him publicly supporting a single decision the guy made.
Slammed!!!
Have journalists never heard of a thesaurus?
