Lord of the Rings.

From cmd line, run a game

Sneaky wrist knives + parkour, the franchise.

Teleportation, no distance limit, and I can take others with me. For accuracy, I can “see” where I’m about to teleport to. First, I’m going to explore other planets with life, venturing into the universe for a few weeks. Then I’m going to move a few people off planet. Don’t worry, I’ll let them bring their money.

You decide what gear to bring with you, get dropped into a map in some fashion, find loot, and try to make it to an extraction point alive. If you die, you lose what you brought with you and anything you found. Add in some AI enemies and PvP, and it can be fun. I feel that the most challenging part of making these types of games is finding that sweet spot between risk and reward. If it’s too punishing, you’ll feel frustrated, like you’re wasting your time. Too easy and it’s boring. ARC found the sweet spot. Very responsive ai enemies, working proximity chat for pvp to call a truce, very well designed maps, just enough help to keep you going back for more, great audio design, and extraction mechanics that result in some tense moments. I’ve played 4 or 5 raids on only one map and so far each time was been unique, tense, and fun. This is my first time playing an extraction shooter and I picked a great one. I’m usually pretty bad at pvp but this one just feels good.

Duh

No sidewalks. And nearby gated communities with sidewalks. Those communities are richer and setup tables outside. Two houses were handing out jello shots to the adults, one had a DJ and light show. My neighborhood still has some houses that do hand outs, but without a sidewalk most people drive up to each house, get out, knock, get back in, drive down to the next house, stop, get out, etc. Parents are worried their walkers will get run over. We can’t compete with the other neighborhoods So, in my opinion, communities built to only serve cars and not pedestrians is the problem.

Hence the little fence

Nuff said

6-7, 10-12

I keep toying with the idea of gorilla planting trees in the neighborhood. Make them look like they were installed by the county, complete with mulch and a small fence.

TOR?

What about TOR browser?

No one said that. You said that. Why did you say that?

Did…did you want them to keep it a secret?

TIL that axes is the plural of axis and axe.

If you make a box and then complain that nothing fits perfectly into the box you made, it doesn’t mean that box shaped things don’t exist.

Oblivion was the only game that came close to how I felt the first time I stepped out of the dungeon and opened the world map of Daggerfall. I couldn’t stop making new characters that I wanted to explore the world with.

But Oblivion really was something special too. Felt like an alive fantasy world.

I spent months modding Skyrim to be as realistic as possible. Nutrition, calories, temperature, disease, frostbite, starvation, injuries, infection, no level scaling, dangerous combat, one life. Took a week to gather and prepare for a dungeon dive.

Frost Troll greeted me when I entered the dungeon. One swipe killed me.

That’s when I learned that the modding was the part I had the most fun with.
