I recently got Dom 6 as a gift, but between my choice paralysis and being incredibly shy, haven’t actually made it to playing at all, even in single player.
I’d be interested if I had some guides/strats to follow, I’ve watched & read a few LPs in an effort to get acquainted with the content.
I claimed Fights in Tight Spaces and Hadean Tactics. Thanks!
I’ll never forget the time a friend stayed the night and we spent something like 4 hours farming that sword. It finally dropped while he was playing, and he immediately went to swap it from Jeff to Poo and equip it.
Something caught my eye as he switched between character inventories though, so I told him to open the inventory again. As soon as he stopped on Paula’s page, I confirmed what I thought I had seen a minute ago;
Another Sword of Kings.
And given its earlier position in the overall team inventory, that meant one had already dropped at some point, and we had failed to notice that until we farmed a second one…
We decided to get some sleep pretty soon after that.
Look, its gonna end up sitting in my intestines slowly dissolving either way.
I’d have to look when I get home, but I’ve got a fair amount of 5th edition books I’d be willing to let go for not much more than shipping costs…
Car-brained treat hogs, as far as the eye can see.
One of my personal favorites is from the short-lived spinoff series Cinematic Titanic, a live episode called “Alien Factor”. It’s a fairly cheap budget sci-fi horror, with an ending that feels like they realized they were on their last 10 minutes of film time as they were shooting the scene.
MST3K is my go-to background noise, always nice to see other fans!

Triplets of Belleville is one of my all time favorite movies
The guide that was packaged with Earthbound back in the day was always a favorite. It was laid out like a travel guide, and had a lot of pictures of the clay models they based the enemy sprites on.

Finished with Elden Ring, for good for now I think. Picked up Cobalt Core to scratch the ever-present deck builder/roguelike itch. I keep trying Dwarf Fortress and Rimworld, but I end up bouncing off those because I get bored/frustrated setting up priorities and zones and all that just to watch things go awry because someone didn’t want to build a bedroom/ bathroom/ grave.
Been looking for a 4X I can dive into, really want to try Dominions 6 while the multiplayer is still fresh and decently populated, but I have no income so I’ve been having to get my games off the high seas so to speak, and Dom 6 is niche enough that I haven’t found any that work. Anyone have suggestions for other games in that vein?
I had a completely different experience watching the summer speed run showcase and fundraiser this past few days, so much love and support for positive things. I just wish I could get over my own nervousness and insecurities and try streaming myself, speedrun or not.
It’s BIG, and that’s both good and bad.
Good because there’s a ton to explore. They said the dlc landmass was about the size of Limgrave, and that’s true from the map perspective, but holy shit there’s a lot of layers to it. When you first start you see a lot of places that you seemingly can’t get to, but as you explore it, you find caves and canyons and cliffside trails that you can follow into areas that are inaccessible by most paths.
Which leads to the bad part, some of these areas are almost too well hidden, and some are very sparsely populated, with maybe one or two interesting drops tucked away in the corners and an almost obligatory field boss to deal with or avoid.
All in all, I’m having fun with it, but theres been some frustration as well, partly because it feels like you are meant to explore and find the upgrade fragments rather than just go through the story, as a lot of the bosses will one or two shot you without enough upgrades.
I’ve played casually on & off since the 90’s, but social anxiety has always kept me from getting into it outside of my friend groups at the time, and I’ve never had a steady enough income to where I’ve been able to keep whatever my current collection is when things get bad.
That said, I’m potentially interested in re-learning with a few chill folks on a semi-regular basis. I don’t think I’ve ever played more than the standard 1v1 format, but I can usually pick things up fairly quickly. PST/PDT timezone
There was an actual town hall where people showed up to protest the installation of solar panels because “they will absorb all the sun and cause plants to die.”
