Maybe those content creators should put their heads together and come up with their own Sims. With blackjack! And hookers!

Unfortunate there’s not a good substitute for MyAnimeList, I’m really not a fan of the website design.

I do play Pathfinder!

I mean, yeah, that’s generally more the response, but I don’t mind explaining things a bit if they’re interested enough to inquire.

I used to do that, but these days I just say I play “tabletop games.” And then one of three things happens: “Huh? What do you mean?” In which case I can clarify a bit, and usually wrap up with “Games similar to D&D.” “Oh okay.” Obvious disinterest, no need to elaborate further. “What system do you play?” Ah, a fellow player identified!

Anecdotally, I was tinkering with it earlier this year and finally stopped being lazy and flipped my main PC over. After I talked about it enough in my friend chat, three more friends followed suit and a fourth is going to soon. It’s not just the end of supporting Windows 10, it’s all of the repeated bugs, glitches, and AI garbage Microsoft has been pushing everywhere so aggressively. People who would likely only rate themselves as “mildly” tech savvy are sick of it and willing to make a move, I feel.

Even better, don’t use Google lol

My players and I all love to roleplay so we’re fine with this sort of thing. That said; generally I encourage a little roleplay up front, then we see the roll. Then depending on whoever thinks of the funniest outcome first, the player either adds something to reflect the roll’s outcome, or I find some reason why whatever they said up front did/didn’t work. Either way, it’s great fun for all of us!

On the rare occasion I run for a different/new table though? Nope, not unless I see the players showing initiative by roleplaying without my prompting, I’ll assume we’re here to play it straight.

Never even heard of Mirlo until now. Neat! Thank you for shining a light on it.

Why is weight a disqualifier?

Void War. It’s as if someone made their own version of FTL and put a coat of Warhammer 40k paint on it. Super fun.

"And now, ignorant whale-lovers, we’ll see who’s boss when I make Mushu jump through this hoop! Jump, Mushu! "

I did flip my peripheral electronics, it’s just my main computer I haven’t changed yet. I made an attempt a while back ago but ran into enough snags, after already having a rough day, that I gave up and I haven’t tried again since. I’m pretty sure I know what the problem is, I just haven’t found myself wanting to sit down and burn the time it would take to install the new OS and get everything installed and tweaked how I like it etc. The latter part being a most-of-the-day project.

I will do it eventually though. I am sick of Windows. Now I just need to get over my fatigue and get off my ass.
