I need to get freeze frames of the text that flashes by
DJShazbot
Endwalker shows midlander female frame Garleans exist quite frequently (yes they have third eyes)
Still, her being doman isn't a spoiler really. What's the spoiler is the nature of her provenance and her motivation
DJShazbot
Oh god, I remember being scared to shit when a crappy ps2 graphics, car sized spider lunged at me...a necromorph in vr? My heart won't be able to take it, hope the project works well!
DJShazbot
Fun prototype, needs guard rails for not just sweeping the robot around in one continuous touch with a cupped hand. Maybe make it like golf with minimum amount of touches?

Commenting here because same game
Have to find a traitor that sells you out to an ambush, find said traitor tied to a tree. Won't tell you who he was working for until you untie him
Can just leave, wait an amount of time, I think like 2 days and he'll crack and tell you without being released.
I wonder if waiting too long would have him die
DJShazbot
Is there a way to lock the omnithrottle axes to just be a traditional throttle? From what I understand a "detent" is just a little nock for you to feel where middle is.
Am curious because I am thinking between the omni and a stecs mini

Recently purchased the EG Starts 2 from amazon for a hotas setup, I'll let you know how it feels when it arrives
DJShazbot
Right, the issue I have is discerning HOW that connection is forged.
Berserkers are berserkers, they are quintessential barbarian violence
Wildhearts are pop culture totemic/animist worshipers but people can even express the characteristics of an animal without ever having seen one. Someone can inhabit the swiftness of a hawk or the steadfast power of a bear without the need for say hailing from a tribe of animists. You can just favor that as a fighting style and so are naturally aligned to that and further tapping into that mindstate comes with further mastery and breadth of abilities.
Zealots have a moment of ecstatic commune with their own god (easily and obviously a war god, skulls for the skull thrones etc) and are a chaotic version of paladin with their baby smite.
The world tree though is a very specific fantastical source and firmly plants itself into the cosmology of any DnD campaign which may or may not care for having a Norse expy attached. It isn't a god (or else it would be a zealot) and it has no will of its own besides growing as some sort of eldritch bridge in the space between realms (According to forgotten realm) so the ability to tap into it feels much more deliberate and narrow
DJShazbot
Would you say then that someone ignorant of the concept of the world tree couldn't channel that power or have that power thrusted upon them?
as far as I know the tree has no will, derives no "nutrition" from the material plane as its roots are in the inbetween, nommed on by Nidhogg who is "just" a big dragon (though forgotten realms wiki sends you to Dendar with 0 explanation)
DJShazbot
Interesting since it aligns with some plot ideas I had about exploring this backstory (Why this barbarian has world tree powers is part of the mystery) and something involving Nidhogg would make sense. But I was under the impression that Nidhogg is like one of those grand celestial constants that unless I want my scale of the plot to balloon into god killing isn't something I can easily thrust upon the player eg: "you are chosen to stop Nidhogg" especially because that's a real railroady (and derailing for the rest of the party) sort of goal.
but also I guess there are points of physical manifestation into the material realm by the World Tree that can be under threat and that anguish can be felt and resonate with others who eventually awaken to it in hopes of someone coming to help
DJShazbot
Thanks for the info, is a good help, especially now that my saitek decided to have its twist axis torsion spring snap
DJShazbot
Funny enough I checked today, the storefront is back and it has 0 joysticks
DJShazbot
The wait is painful
DJShazbot
I unfortunately do have to wait, I am not american ans they are on vacation now so even their aliexpress internation storefront is closed
DJShazbot
Does vkb do black friday sales?
DJShazbot
Instead of a blow dryer, can one of those electic air blowers meant for keyboards work too or is that too strong?
DJShazbot
Dammit where's that graze 2 pack with the spear and shield?
DJShazbot
I can't raise a pitchfork because pitchforks are polearms
And We Don't Have Any!!!!!
DJShazbot
And still no freaking polearm froths with rage
DJShazbot
I would have titled myself off the planet after the third dodge roll out of a heavy stagger robbing me of a hard knockdown, goodjob keeping your cool
DJShazbot
Part of me wants la marseillaise, the other wants the mime music from expedition 33
DJShazbot
I kinda love how it got progressively more french as the rant went on
Thing is, I can see how this would work in old looney tunes style.
The problem is there is too much detail.
Tweety could have pulled the bones out without the sticky viscera holding it to the walls coming with it
Sylvester could have not looked like he was bleeding in his eyes.
Just those 2 removals would lend towards the humorous slapstick rather than the ren and stimpy factor.. looney tunes violence works because they remove the grounding in reality not only in actions but in consequences
