Right. The really early oughts, when trolling was still a real thing, were so radically different that it’s hard to explain to people these days

Hell way back in the day, 4chan was one of my go-to websites, before the joking and trolling on /b/ really wasn’t joking and trolling any more.

It’s pretty standard 4chan-NEET fare, for anyone who is wondering. Racism, homophobia, xenophobia, trad wives, and quasi-pro-nazi shit.

Not worth your time to check out. Small community of sad nerds.

IDDQD is a cheat for the original Doom, as a random fun-fact. God mode, iirc.

the Encounter Tracker has been unchanged in beta for those years

Wait til you hear about the BG3 beta.

I think DnD beyond looks is great. I wish Games Workshop would move more quickly into the 21st century

“I hate when companies make money. Like when they licensed out this balls-out awesome video game”

Sometimes good things are just good things my man.

By far the easiest way to kill it. You’ll need to lure it to the hammer spot though.

I don’t tilt at these windmills for the people arguing nonsense, but for people scrolling by.

Shareholders are key investors and are the principal drivers of M&A and infrastructure investment.

Disagreeing with the idea that companies exist to drive shareholder returns does not change the actual purpose of shareholders, nor suddenly cause them to be rent-seekers.

Shareholders provide economic value (it’s literally in the name) and are not rent-seeking by definition

On lower difficulties karmic dice can even out your streaks, which feels good but ultimately isn’t game-breaking.

On higher difficulties they can get you killed because they also work for the enemy, meaning you’ll get hit a lot more, which is a real problem.

I just got it in A1 after the owlbear fight, and used basically no resources

Looks like I was wrong or tts bugged or both.

I have 0 dnd experience outside of AD&D decades ago, and this game isn’t very complex at all. Combat definitely isn’t. Strategic, yes, but not complex or overwhelming.

I don’t understand how someone can be overwhelmed by the combat of this game. You can move, and you can do a thing, and some people get a once-per-turn extra thing. It’s every strategy RPG game ever.

Yeah man we’re allowed to disagree. That’s the beauty of this kind of content.

Some people love lae’zel and tbh I’m just not capable of giving her her due.

It makes sense for her to be there (though not talk like she’s in your party) because she’s the one pushing for you to go that direction/head to the creche (which she knows is around but not specifically where)

He is not badly written lmao

He literally offers to sacrifice his own life, immediately upon hearing the plan to sacrifice him. He is also literally that strong, prior to his rejection by Mystra/unfortunate accident. He’s not lying.

stay in your lane

He paved that lane.

His Approvals are all tied to good acts. He respects caring for and defending those weaker than him. He supports acts of charity. He supports honesty, and humbles himself before the entire party up to and including being willing to leave over his condition.

There is no way to paint Gale as anything but a good person.

Gale is an arrogant prick

I genuinely do not see how people have this opinion of him. He is by far the nicest character that isn’t named Karlach.

He’s arguably the most noble and selfless character in the entire game.
