A 30% increase in one year seems like a lot.

Real life is adapting to the paradox game meta of "jesus christ navies are too complicated I'm just not going to use them".

• Stardew Valley with a friend, I think we're mostly done Ginger Island but then it's onto perfection and I'm not sure he wants to go through that grind
• Monster Hunter Rise with three friends but always only one at a time lol. Weirdly the game lets you start Master Rank before finishing High Rank. For some reason Teostra seems really hard compared to how I remembered him in World.
• Soulstone Survivors is my podcast game at the moment. Per the name, it's a Vampire Survivors knockoff that regretfully has aiming. The new patch was pretty cool, and seems to have made it a lot less grindy; I've gone from getting 5 levels per game to 50+.
• Deep Rock Galactic with a friend. New season started, two new mission types. Not a huge fan of the deep scanning one, seems like it kind of requires a driller while I prefer being able to choose whatever (also we only ever play 2 player which restricts it further)
• Victoria 3. Almost done a Colombia game, where I (historically accurately) control the Arabian peninsula, Japan, and half of Indochina. Currently in 3rd place prestige ranking, and my communist economy is only sustained via bankroll from the UK, US, and France. Cooperative Ownership is waaaaaaaaaay worse than Laissez-Faire now, at least until your GDP gets so high the investment pool might as well not exist.

I see no sign that the rats have bitten her, they're just taking a look at her eyes to try to diagnose what's happening.

"Wearing a mask" and "living your entire life in a clean room" are hardly equivalent risks.

It's a good video, folks.

If anyone were Russian bots it'd be these people. Can't they see how being so insufferable is only going to lose votes?

The party cannot fail, it can only be failed.

Why can't it just release in the morning, damn. I'm going to have to stay up until 5AM and call in sick.

Gommunism

IIRC they're also not built to keep the heat in because like 5000 people died due to cold weather in 2022/23. Seems like the UK has had the copper wire ripped out of the walls slightly faster than other imperialist countries.

What are the water restrictions like? Where I am they've never been more serious than "don't water your lawn" but dipshits still violated that all the time. I can't imagine how bad compliance is when it would cause actual inconvenience.

Saying anything about COVID lockdowns in 2024 should get you a one-way ticket to . IMMUNITY DEBT ISN'T A THING AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

Smh nobody is talking about how the real problem with modern asscreed is that it became an ARPG. Just let me one-shot everyone with a hidden blade parry, plz.

Extremely good. "Better than Frieren" is going to come down to taste, but I'd agree. It's not better than the high points of the first ~6 episodes, but it is better than the rest of the series. Worth noting that the second season has been announced which should probably finish the adaptation, which is soooooooooooo rare these days. Watch it!

I'm in a crusade and have won two of my five games, but I think this is because my list is very close to what was the tournament meta list (mostly by accident due to what I own). The wins were blowouts (a tabling and reduced to a single unit) and all of the losses were close (two were literally down to a single die roll and the third could have been turned around but I misplayed a reinforcements'd pair of sentinels). Agreed that it sucks to be one of two factions that have our special rule turn off it we get battleshocked, especially when it means nothing to 90% of factions. Haven't had any issues with Precision just because nobody has taken it (except for a skatros that whiffed hard), but it would definitely be brutal if they did. As for the Codex, I'm sure it'll be okay for the 5 days we have it before 11th launches.

The core of my army is a TC and LR, both with demo cannons/lascannon/multimeltas, a manticore (sadly my beloved deathstrike is too bad to justify running as itself), a PCS with Master Vox + Grand Strategist that just hides in the back, and some sentinels. Depending on points and the matchup, this gets filled out with some combo of 30 infantry, 20 kasrkin, some bullgryn, a third sentinel, a chimera, and a 5-man scion squad. I also have a castellan, commissar, and psyker but the only really good one is the castellan with one of the kasrkin to give them sustained on 2s.

I know of some liquid masking products specifically for mini painting, and I've seen others also use silly putty (or similar). As far as I know they both work well, the main reason I went with masking tape was because I wanted nice straight lines and sharp angles.

10e is a special kind of bad. The Guard's special rule is "if sitting still, 6s to hit auto-wound". Guard players saw this and said "okay so we're an artillery-based faction now? That sucks, but it is what it is I guess". GW then hiked all artillery by around 30% points because yeah artillery is uninteractive and boring. The best part? That special rule is called "Combined Arms". The current meta last I checked was to basically ignore it.

We also have a load-bearing named character who is by far the best at everything he does, and I hate him.
