Npc with a sob story, but they’re shy so it takes some conversation (time to think and roll with what the players think might be going on) before they will reveal it.

Ttrpg character art via midjourney. That’s I think the only thing I’ve ever used.
I always like to throw out 37 because of Dante’s girlfriend.
Okay, but what the heck do the colors mean??
What’s wild is I have had a 1TB one of these running for like 4 or 5 years now without issues, and I’ve had 2 nice Samsung’s (a 970 and 980) die in that time frame. I’ve basically come to the conclusion that modern consumer storage can’t be trusted or relied on in general. Robust back-up solutions of anything I’m worried about losing, preferably to a cloud service (or 2)…
I have tried out onshape and it is a pretty functional fusion replacement, but I really don’t like the idea that the models I make can be used (or even just sold) by others commercially. I’d be okay with it if the free version just gave all models made with it an open license that barred commercial use entirely, but banned for me and open for sale by others is pretty dirty imo.
I noticed a similar problem importing step files… I no longer had circles, I had nonagons… I would love to delete my windows vm that only exists for fusion 360.
I was thinking use the rule system and home brew the story and setting. I rarely use the written setting for a game system, I don’t want to have to become an encyclopedia of someone else’s fictional universe, lol.
Running starfinder now, and I love it… But it is a lot more fantasy sci-fi than the IPs OP mentioned. It’s a great “dnd but in space” setting, but it is mostly based on og Pathfinder so it’s quite a crunchy system and ship battles can be a slog and kinda unbalanced from a “what each player gets to do” perspective. Really sucks to be the engineer or science officer as far as excitement goes compared to the pilot or a gunner.
We’ve had good luck with atypical ship encounters though, like trying to chase down and board a ship before they escape or some people are on the enemy ship during the fight. Having to be fast and loose with the rules about ship roles though when you’ve only got 2 or 3 people on the ship. It feels like it is really designed to have a minimum of 5 people strictly RAW. We’ve also played with concepts from other systems, like allowing the Bard equivalent to use influencing spells on enemy ship crew despite being wildly out of range (but not being able to use ship actions in the same turn).
I’m surprised no one has mentioned the expanse rpg. Link
I’m a big fan of steam and gog. Steam does better “out of the box” on Linux but you can generally get anything running just as well on gog with minor faffing about. But one thing gog has that I love is the ability to play an older version of the game. New updates breaking something or otherwise not what you wanted, on steam you don’t have a choice usually but the newest version, on gog you can just select an older version and play that.
This comment is gold.
You’re missing the point of this post… They specifically made a change to make it easier to open and put back together without damage, which is not the norm in most related industries these days. That’s a good thing that we have been conditioned not to expect because of companies like Apple that fully do not want you to open your device ever for any reason.
Your comment sounds like “well you can’t open an iPhone without damaging it, why should you be able to open a steam deck without damaging it”… Very much corporate overlord shill vibes.
For me it was probably Gimp and then Linux (specifically mandrake). I’m shocked I havnt seen mention of VLC yet though, as it’s another one that gets use every day for me.
Morrowind was on another level compared to modern open world games. Map markers? Nah, fuck you. You get old world directions like “follow the road south east out of town and take a left at the fork then turn right at the crazy broken Dwarven machine and you should find the dungeon my brother went exploring”.
Then the main story quest giver tells me to “come back after two moons have passed” to continue… I thought that meant two MONTHS. Left the dude at level like 3 or 4 and came back a walking God of death because I nearly completed all guilds side quests in 2 months… Learned years later he just wanted me to wait 2 fucking days.
Omg I looked at veloren and I’m going to have to try that… I spent so many hours in cube world when it first went early access (before the dev went radio silent for 5 years and then released on steam, lol)
People have the ability to block communities as they see fit individually and also follow whatever communities they want and only browse their subscribed list. (steering wheel)
But when popular communities are on an instance that is very much “get on board or get out” to the point they ban users from every community on their instance for having differing political views, it is very much reasonable to try to start or promote communities run on different instances controlled by better admins. (where the roads go (ok, so building roads is a bad analogy, it is more like when a place has terrible sidewalks so people walk through the grass and they wear in those little dirt-path short cuts and eventually no one uses the sidewalks))
