Interesting choice of name to start out with there, . 👀😬

Halefa,
@Halefa@streamers.social avatar

@EighthLayer A lot of names are German-based and the same goes with Cuntz - I can't even remember whether I had the same suggested name and simply did not register it at all. 😅

@kik I had ONE inspiration point that I did not plan to use on THIS! 😆

But one of the first times I rolled in BG3 I failed a DC of 0 by rolling a 1. 🙃

Interesting design choice for the second game. 🧐

@EighthLayer Yeah, I'm not sure how to feel about it tbh. 😬

can be a bit janky and it definitely needs more optimisation, but overall I've enjoyed what I've played so far.

@EighthLayer Did you feel the speed of growth was different from CS1?

I felt like all the different zone types unlocked quite fast and the need bars were full all the time. I felt rushed to just build build build and at some point just ignored them to focus on road management and such.

Halefa,
@Halefa@streamers.social avatar

@EighthLayer Yeah true, the building animation is slower.

I did notice the cranes as well but they don't bug me that much - every game needs to have its own little fun aspect, doesn't it.

Pre-installing ! I hope I can actually run it at a decent quality!

Halefa,
@Halefa@streamers.social avatar

@EighthLayer I spontaneously decided to pre-order and have preloaded as well. Crossing all my fingers that it will run. 😅 I'm not entirely sure ....

Halefa,
@Halefa@streamers.social avatar

@EighthLayer @the_white_wolf How did you fare?

So far, it looks okay for me - no visible impact for still so far skal city.

My CPU was chilling, but my GPU was running hot. 🥲

YouTube’s “most replayed” feature helping all skip through VPN, HelloFresh and mattress sponsorships is the hero we never knew we needed.

@steve There's a browser plugin that does this automatically for you: SponsorBlock for YouTube

Note to self: Don't drink and chat to 4am when you need to be up at 8am.

@garius Oof! Hopefully it was at least a good chat with the sleep-hangover.

Playtesting my character tonight and I am EXCITED.

I'm also totally clueless what to expect or what to do, but that doesn't negate the excitement!

@Halefa@streamers.social avatar

@killyourfm Enjoy!

Oh, I hate it when this helpful UI that I actively turned on comes in and tries to be helpful! 😤

@garius@mastodon.me.uk avatar

The city that normalised drinking port at all times of the day is also the city that thought:

"Hey, why don't we take a three-meat sandwich, drown it in melted cheese and gravy, and call that a light lunch?"

I don't think these two things are coincidental.

Halefa,
@Halefa@streamers.social avatar

@garius I never dared eating them when in Porto. I need to have at least a salad on the side to compensate for the pure taste of umami. 😆

30 years ago I participated in a one-off D&D session for the first time, and haven't played since.

Later this month, I'm starting a new D&D campaign with some of the @thunderbird crew!

So today I'm buying my first dice, creating my character, all of those awesome things.

I was merely CURIOUS about playing D&D (especially after Baldur's Gate 3) but after being walked through some of the character creator elements and thinking about my backstory, now I'm downright excited!

Halefa,
@Halefa@streamers.social avatar

@killyourfm @thunderbird But what dice???

Halefa,
@Halefa@streamers.social avatar

@killyourfm @thunderbird Speaking from experience: they won't be. 😆

And oh my gosh they look amazing!!!

It never sits right with me to see (certain) people trying to tear down fellow YouTubers or content creators over and over again.

Fine, the title might not match your perception of what "incredible" means but the video lays out the figures for people to make their own perceptions.

Reach out privately to them rather than digging again and again on a public platform to thousands of followers and creating a pile on.

Give people the benefit of the doubt, especially colleagues on the same grind ✌️

Halefa,
@Halefa@streamers.social avatar

@steve What do you mean? Other content creators describing a game as being incredible?

garius, to gaming
@garius@mastodon.me.uk avatar

Something streamer culture needs to embrace more is the classic radio tradition of the 'relief presenter' to enable holidays and breaks.

And Twitch in particular needs to have better tools to enable it safely and easily.

When Craig Charles goes on holiday, his daily afternoon show on BBC Radio 6 doesn't go off air for two weeks, leaving silence in its place. That would be disastrous for the radio station.

Instead, a relief presenter comes in, or a relief show is scheduled. /1

Halefa,
@Halefa@streamers.social avatar

@garius Mmh, interesting thought. Have you posted it on UserVoice? I bet other streamers would also come with suggestions and input.

Halefa, to VideoGames
@Halefa@streamers.social avatar

For everyone who is interested in but not entirely sure:
@larianstudios's other games are currently on a crazy sale!

Both separately and as a bundle. They're not completely like but fine a good insight into this type of game. And they're great in their own right!

Polls are limited to only 4 options, or else there would be others to choose from.

Halefa,

@cliffwade I like spring the most cause the change in season and increase in sun is so obvious and makes me so happy.

I love good, consistent summer weather, so summer would come next. But in summer sun is kinda a given.

Imperor, to art
@Imperor@mastodon.social avatar

Just realized today is so here's my suggestions from the and just generally awesome people:

@wrahnylvid - cool art stuff and art retoots
@Halefa - streaming and being helpful
@jaxwxboss - great person, great shares
@phd20 - good stuff and friendly
@draconicgraphics - great art and really good commission work
@cookiesdf - very best halfling you'll ever meet over in

Give them a look, maybe a follow, too!

I finally figured out how to use
@FransBouma's photo tools for .

Here we go - getting NOWHERE in the game anymore cause I need to pause and render every 5 minutes. 🙃

One of the things has which didn't: dice rolls. Moments like these. I really enjoy how they implemented the dice.

Well that was a close call! Two were down, and one was dead but revived with a Scroll of Revivify!

Halefa,
@Halefa@streamers.social avatar

@EighthLayer That's a success! Divinity: Original Sin II taught me like Dark Souls (or similar): sometimes you need to die a couple of times before you understand how to do a fight.

If Baldur's Gate 3 is similar in that regard, u el make sure everyone I'm my party always had some revivify at hand! 🫠
