Wait... it's per capita? I thought everyone in Sweden, Norway, and Finland was in a metal band.

Not actually playing as much as I used to, but did successfully complete a no-reload of BG1 the other day, and my characters are now in BG2, which I haven't finished in about 10 years. I'm contemplating building a gaming PC so I can finally try BG3 and some others.

It’s a ‘far out’ film for sure. On par with the Star Wars Holiday Special, I’d say. I’m sorely regretting not bringing this to the bad movie parties we used to have back in the day.

@Xzarloxara Very nice! That's better than I'd hoped. Thanks again.

@Xzarloxara Oh, very cool, thank you. Is that 27”? With UI scaling off?

Hi all, looking for some advice. Have any of you played the EEs on a 27”, 1440p monitor? If so, what are your thoughts? Is it an acceptable resolution?

Put points in it, anyway. I always do. But you make a good point that it would be nice if games made a better effort to incorporate it mechanically.

I knew people whose parents were freaked out by that movie and tried to stage interventions. 😂

@m7600 made a funny post in the no-reload thread about the fear of a link between Satanism and D&D in the 80s which was exacerbated by crappy TV. Anyone remember Mazes & Monsters? 😂

I usually ask for my glue on the side. I like to dip.

Very far from the spirit of the franchise. I wonder what compelled them to make this. Do they think they can start over with an entirely new generation of players, and ignore loyal fans of the series? I don’t generally wish misfortune on anyone, but I hope this doesn’t sell.

I remember pnp modules being smaller scale, but I can’t recall any crpgs that were made this way off the top of my head. Can anyone else remember any?

Sometimes you have to ask why you’re doing a thing. If you willfully endorse the wholesale surrender of the imagination to a computer, then it was never really about the magic of making games. You may as well have been a hedge fund manager from the start.

Ugh.

Sometimes nuking's a good thing. When I get new computers - which is every six to eight years - I never port my data over. I always look at it as an opportunity to start anew. I save the data I want to keep, discard the rest, and reorganize. As for amusing anecdotes - sure. Too many to count...

I mean, ChatGTP is already hallucinating phony academic citations. I have had to deal with a lot of confused researchers in my line of work since it became a thing.

It takes a lot to shock me these days. This did. 😂 Perhaps the worst thing is following the link and seeing that it got good reviews. My goodness. Until today, I'd thought Rambo for Sega Master System had the crown for objectionable content, but, it looks like we have a new champion. This is...

All this AI business has been deeply distressing (not just due to it's impact on art, but on other facets of society) to me, especially as someone who has been so deeply immersed in the digital world for the last... 17 years? But I've had an epiphany of sorts, one that I am delightfully...

I'd been thinking of giving this a try at one point. I'd heard about the incompleteness of it elsewhere, too. Thanks for the review.
