that's bound to happen, but I'd like to think both parties are on the same level and if there's proxies in play, everyone asks reminders and automatically reminds what everything is (if they're making an obvious goof). IMO, could be soup cans for all I care, as long as everyone is consistent about it.

I'm being way too serious about this, but: Whatever you do with your toys outside of the game, who cares? You do you. It's fine. Want to marry Angron with Sparkledash (or whatever the ponies are called), do it. DO. IT. And post pictures, I wan't to see that shit.

When we play, I'm going to allow Sparkledash on table if you say before game what it is proxying for. I'm cool with that. Doesn't matter if he/she/it married Angron or left the guy on the altar. Not my biz.

I couldn't care two shits if you played with chess pieces, as long as you declare what each piece represents/proxies and don't mind me asking for refreshers because I'm gonna forget. But, as long as we play on good terms and have fun, all good.

Or don't play, and have fun, because I could see myself totally busting that house with my minis and having a bakeout. Yes, I'm an adult, but nobody told me how to adult.

(edit: I main Chaos Knights (no, haven't even seen the new codex, is it out yet?) and side Necrons. Both are down for barbie.

Disco Elysium? More or less entirely conversation-driven RPG about an alcoholic cop who drunk himself to submission so hard he forgot who he is, hence developing him back with skillpoints. Off the top of my head there's like one combat situation which you can talk around if you're so inclined.

Otherwise, it's been said many times that "Planetscape: Torment" is similar .... ish. Not the setting, but mechanics, apparently you can entirely go through the game without combat - but that's not to say there's not going to be bodies - or so I've been told, haven't played the game to completion, only dabbled the beginnings.

So, these suggestions are with grain of salt, obvs. But afaik both are pretty high up on the rpg shelf.

hope it fares better for them than the subnautica 2 devs.

Hmm, could be that I'm remembering it by few individual questions in it, if that is the same survey (probably is).

I'll strike out my previous message about that.

~~sounds quite a bit like the survey they had some time ago, where every question was basically a sliding scale of which of the 2 things you like better, and every single one of them was essentially "more ai features, crypto and advertising <--> throwing kittens into woodchipper". Totally not skewed at all.~~

edit: I'm probably (only) remembering single/few standout questions about it, and made it sound like it was the entire thing.

sounds promising, thanks for letting me know! I'll check back to the game during the weekend. :)

Yea I have done that, but logging into the launcher (and it apparently keeps it logged in as well) unlocks in-game items - they are entirely non-essential, but... you know, hoarding.

I haven't tested yet if that's even the thing which is showing me in-game to my friends. I was kinda amazed to hear they saw me playing cyberpunk to the early morning hours :D

heroic overall seems to work better for installing games from gog, but the odd issue I have is that I seem to be always online on gog's service when I'm playing games. Do you happen to know if there's any way to set myself invisible? I don't want everyone to know how often or late I play games :P

I guess technically signing out of the storefront would do that, but then I'd have to re-login to install/update games, eh

edit: oh derr, it dawned on me that it might be the Cyberpunk launcher which I had to login as well, which shows me online

I wouldn't know, not that far into the game, still just working in the starting cafeteria area. But, I'll check it again at some point.

make sure first that it isn't issue with specific games, some may require some proton flags to be set for them to behave properly. Or just newer/older proton/wine.

in general worth a try to switch the compatibility thingy (technical term),

steam, in game's properties:

but similar option is in lutris/heroic too.

[–] Malix@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 week ago

Everything this.

Personally nonissue since I don't play any of those online/pvp games
