    Hey cool, this guy is literally from my home town.

    How's the hog situation

    Haven't been there in...approaching 15 years, but zero of em when I was last there.
    That's totally useless information, the entire point is how fast moving they are!

    Used to be! I had one of those plastic hog hats as a kid. Nowadays my only hat is a baseball cap which has been placed on mowin duty. Just a big ol band of salt in that brim, tell you what.

    (For those of you not from The Natural State, the mascot of the University of Arkansas is the razorback, a species of feral hog. Hog sightings are not a common thing.)

    That's not that unusual in this day and age.

    Shit, Gears of War 4 is like over 100 gigs.

  • MorivethMoriveth BREAKDOWN BREAKDOWN BREAKDOWN BREAKDOWNRegistered User regular
    In all seriousness that game looks like it could be cool, but the ad copy in the steam page for it does not leave me confident.

  • BahamutZEROBahamutZERO Registered User regular
    yeah 30 gigs is pretty unremarkable for large 3D games at this point

    I'm pretty sure the whole idea is for them to not be tied to any one storefront

  • Undead ScottsmanUndead Scottsman Registered User regular
    Epic Store exclusivity seems to be tied into two categories.

    1. Indies for whom a guaranteed cash infusion offsets the potential loss of sales, which is handy as it defers some of the risk that can be deadly for indies.
    2. Publishers who want to eke out whatever extra cents they can out of their product. 2k doesn't NEED the money provided by Borderlands 3 being exclusive, but they're damn sure going to take it, and they'll likely get a bigass second wind when it comes out on Steam six months later.

    From another interview with a different member of the team:



    That's like a 20 tweet thread, I was actually going to post it but you beat me to the punch. Here's, I think, the most relevant parts:








    It's a good thread, echoes a lot of my thoughts on the matter

    There must be some way to harness that weird magic.

    When someone puts out their female protagonist QUILTBAG anti-capitalist dating sim and the goorbies start churning their rage, the creators of the game should get a free pass to say "Nope! There's nothing political here!"

    We know there's a political stance. But the gloopuns clearly wont know what to do and may end up even purchasing the game.

    my CK2 monthy income seems highly variable and afaict I'm not doing anything that should change it. I've found a few different menus that break it down, but none of them seem comprehensive. Where should I be looking?

    This is our mission, Chico, to take hold of the gromblers' collective purchasing power and fuel the next wave of enthusiastically inclusive gaming.

    We cannot rest until the glip-glorps have shifted their unified consciousness until they are all frothing at the mouth to get married to a varied and comprehensive selection of non-heteronormative pigeon lifeguards.

    We have to make them want to fuck pigeons.

    Are you someone's vassal? They might be raising your levees without you noticing. If you aren't it's probably a combination of province modifiers changing, vassals changing their opinion of you, or raiding. Your income tends to stay more stable if it comes mostly from your own holdings, and more variable if it's mostly taxes from vassals.

    My friend is working on a roguelike game you can play if you want to. (It has free demo)

    hm. I do have a vassal in charge of the Bishopric in the province. Maybe he's doing something wacky. I'll have to check tomorrow.

    I started Dishonored: Death of the Outsider and there's a story thing I'm confused by.
    In Dishonored 2, Meagan Foster is missing her right arm below the elbow, but when you play as her in DotO she has both arms (though the Outsider does turn her right arm into a skeleton arm after the first mission).

    At first I thought it must be set before 2, but then I found a newspaper mentioning Emily having retaken the throne from Delilah, so it clearly must be set after 2.

    Does this get explained?

    They just want a democracy! (That they're in charge of) Is that too much to ask?
