Yes! Absolutely. There were so so many different kinds of all different shapes and colors. They’re so gorgeous and some were so so big. That’s great for your wife, I’ll bet that’s fulfilling <3

That’s what I came here to say as well. It’s so well done and it hits in such a profound way.

Have you read any of the short stories on the game’s website? I highly recommend it. Catherine’s is so sad and it really gives a ton of insight into what she went through.

What is it about the Long Dark that’s stuck with you?

I actually want them to step away from 5e/DnD in general. I loved DOS2, but I agree with another commenter that the vast swaths of elements made things challenging in a frustrating way at times. Not that that shouldn’t be a tactic to be used, but it definitely was egregious in DOS2.

5E is just… A fuckin mess when it comes to balancing the game - said as a long time DM and player. There are so many things that just irritate the heck out of me with the system that can’t necessarily be balanced with a video game slapped overtop of it. (Not to say Larian didn’t do a good job with what they were given, but still)

That being said, I am a total fanboy of Pathfinder 2e and the way things are balanced there, and I would love love love to see a CRPG under those rules. Especially if it was Larian-levels.

Are these foreground flowers Scotch Brooms?

How’s your cruise, OP? :3

What is your favorite season?

I’ll be getting it on PC, but I’m super stoked for Sea of Stars

I wish Colorado would seriously put forth a passenger train between Pueblo to Denver or even Fort Collins.

Utah has one from Provo to Ogden and it’s amazing. Beats driving in the psycho traffic.

When I was a kid, I was in band class. We were having an end of the year big concert and my parents were coming for once. I was first chair and had a fun part in one of our songs so I was really excited to get to play for them for once.

Because of my excitement and my being just a kid, I was bouncing around and the neck strap for my saxophone broke. I played tenor and there was no way my little hands could hold that thing up for a whole concert, so I was pretty much booted from the concert last minute. It broke my damn heart. Even thinking about it now makes me teary. All that hope just quashed because of some dumb mistake.

Good news is that the band director did me a solid and let me walk out with my case to rest my sax on beside my chair, but the damage had already been done.

Welcome. To. Zombocom. Zombocom welcomes you.

I think I’d like to have a chat with Teddy Roosevelt. Nothing political in nature, I just want to hear his stories and what it was like seeing Yosemite way back when.

If not Roosevelt, then maybe an ancient Greek philosopher. Socrates or Plato maybe.

Not who you asked, but toward the end of a long drive, absolutely. White line fever becomes a huge risk for me, personally, after 5-6 hours.

It’s interesting how experiences can vary. I just returned it because I wasn’t enjoying it, which was a shame because it looks great.

What makes it fun for you?

I’m managing now. Turns out I have a rare cardio-pulmonary condition that was just getting worse and wreaking havoc on my body.

But with medication and some rehab, I’m at an alright point. :)

I had just left the military to go to college, was a healthy mid-20s person with bright eyes for the future.

After a month, I was getting winded while hiking. After three months, I was fainting with high exertion. After six months, I was getting daily migraines. After eight months, I was having full tonic-clonic seizures.

After ten months, I was sat in front of a cardiologist that told me if I didn’t agree to a surgery and a stay in the hospital, I would be dead in three to five months.

This is all significantly shortened, but going from having a real taste of freedom and being able to do anything I set my mind to, to being laid up in a hospital bed with a mile of wires and tube sticking in me and on me – it was terrifying.
