Because it is cozy brewing by the crackling fire. My demands on the coffee at that point are low just that it feels like coffee. And it is a ritual - get to camp, start fire, brew coffe, drink coffe staring into the flames trying to divine the future.

Crumb shot because I know you need it.

Been thinking that I need a grinder to get fresh ground coffee while hiking as the season is starting. Still using old pre-ground from last year and it os not that good. Does the job and is better than the slush at work.

So I think I'll need to get me a hiking grinder. And has to grind coarse as in the field i make kokkaffe (boilcoffee?). Or really fine to do something more akin to turkish coffee.

It appears I used wrong search terms and/or added terms not giving me what I want. Knowing what to search for is half the battle!

[–] tissek@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 year ago

Those are some search terms that provided much better results!

I don't know how much to read between the lines, but one can read Hasbro is to blame. Praise for WotC and the DnD team. Nothing for Hasbro...

Played a good bit of Kingmaker and while not as refined as WotR I think is very similar. I agree with you that the DoS chaos can be a bit monotone and is too much. But I'd take that over the environmental flatness of other cRPGs.

Stray Gods, a roleplaying musical. More of an interactive musical than something with deep gameplay features. Kinda like a point-and-klick but you choose where the musical number goes. Inbetween the numbers there is a whole slew of talking to folks, investigating scenes etc.

Would have passed over it as it was far from my regular cup of tea. So I'm glad I "stumbled" into Overly Sarcastic Productions critique of it. May be the Detail Diatribe of theirs I've been the most glued to. And then I needed to play it myself.

Or simply have study areas where the silence is enforced. Rest of the premises just demands calm.

As I barely have managed to squeeze in 5-10 hours of gaming per week this winter season the thought of spending 300+ hours in a single game is overwhelmingly daunting. A year with a single game. Ugh...

My best gaming experience this last year was with a short game that I knocked out in a weekend. Got a good satisfying experience and a conclusion to it. Git me rethinking things.

Working on it... Cleared tutorial island for the second time, took a breather and now its been a couple of weeks. Sigh. Soon I will have lost the feel for the run and start over.

I think Pathfinder is as bad of a match for Larian as DnD mechanically speaking. Compare the sheer battlefield joy and chaos of DoS to the austere strictness in BG3. And Pathfinder is in the same vein. Better I think it would be if Larian picks up a setting fitting their humour and shenanigans. Heard good things about Discworld.
