"... A..."

(Youtube link)

Some context for those unaware: Gawr Gura is a hololive vtuber, and this clip is how she started her first stream. Tens of thousands of viewers, and she makes her debut with 25 seconds of total silence and then a single "a", followed by a cut to her loading screen. Very weird, and very funny.

I already own it, but I'll have to give it another go. Been playing Against the Storm again lately and it's fucking fantastic. I liked Timberborn, but I didn't play it a ton. I think it was my first proper dive into city builders and I felt like there was a pretty strong learning curve coming into the genre, so I put it down and forgot about it.

It also runs quite well and looks great on medium and low settings. I can run it on high on my 2060 quite easily, but I don't feel like I need to cause the artstyle works so well.

Might not be a big deal for others, but I love when games look good while taking very little computer resources.

Great game. First got recommended it here (I saw the game before but didn't really pay much attention to it) and I love it so much. I've always stayed away from city builders cause I feel like they turn into something I don't really care for as the game goes on, but the short scale rogue lite nature of this works incredibly well for me.

I really like that settlements are inherently temporary and that the game throws a lot of wrenches at me. It's a good reminder to try and strive for flexibility rather than optimization. Settlements don't have to be perfect (and likely won't be), they just have to work well enough to get to the next.

They've also added a ton of content and quality of life stuff since I last played a few patches ago. The UI still has some issues, but auto loading saved production limits and the overlay keys for buildings and workers make it so much easier to see what's going on at a macro level.

Tip for new players: after you get your bearing in game (maybe 1 or 2 settlements), take some time to just go through and check out the overlays. You can easily do stuff like move workers around or see and adjust recipes of all buildings on your map at once. I only just found those options and it's a godsend compared to menu diving.

Like, both together, or seperated?

Basic math sure. Basic logic would be that cutting a third of two apples in the same cut is the most possible effort for no benefit.

Not everyone went to the same school, and not everyone went to school, for any number of reasons. I first attended a health class in college.

The biggest factor for me with fonts is readability (I have my notepad++ default to verdana at 16pt font on a 1080p monitor which is my ideal). It's probably worth mentioning that my eyesight isn't great and I think I have some kind of brain related trouble with print.

Segoe is okay, but the font is really thin and the spacing is too narrow for me.

Artist is fizzy-dog. Seems the original tumblr links are dead (or tumblr is being rude to me). These are pulled from from e6.

And a bonus panel.

Verdana is my fucking jam. Good spacing and very legible at different font sizes. My only two gripes: Lower case "l" (L) being a straight line and the number 0 has no cross through it. Not major though, cause they're still pretty distinct from similar characters.
