    its also a weirdly popular product, meaning its even less likely to end up in the dumpster.

    All of which just further proves how fucking stupid a comment @I_Has_A_Hat made was.

    They may have a hat, but they clearly don’t have anything that matters underneath it.



  • Theres been a couple games that had this issue.

    I know Myth 2 had it if you installed it into the wrong directory or something.

    There was some not-mainstream MMO that had the issue too at one point.

    but I cant remember the name of the xcom knockoff that had it.

    and I cant find anything about it cause I keep finding 5000 pages of results about recovering uninstalled games.

    I wish I still had options to install updates or not.

    Cause sometimes I like to fuck around with silly bugs and exploits in your old solo games, or because some amazing mod only worked on X version and not Y version. which is not something you can do anymore because you are only allowed to have the most recent version or else.

    I dont know where this person got their numbers, but the prices are WAAAAAAYYYYY off.

    I had a relative need an Ambulance ride next year. less than 1/4th a mile to the hospital. the cost was over 5000 dollars.

    last time I went to the emergency room, I got nothing but a chewable asprin, a bag of saline, a basic blood test and chest xrays and it was almost 40 grand… and that was with the “filthy uninsured peasant” discount, which I know thats what the charts focused on, but its ridiculous how much more expensive it is with insurance, even if you dont see the cost to your wallet.




  • Just to wheel things back onto the road.

    I was never asking for fully procedurally generated dungeons.

    I just said randomize chest locations and door locks. It cant be that hard for a company that has been using the same game engine for almost 22 years to implement a node system to roll a spawn chance for a chest, or a door to be locked or not (with a higher chance of node spawns behind locked doors).

    Hell, they could have even gone the lazy way and just copy and pasted the PoI a few times and manually changed the cosmetics/appearances.

    With space and prefab buildings, they have the ultimate excuse for why every dungeon is identical (at least until you get into the underground caves…), but not every one of them should have the same dead body inthe same location in the same shower, the same succulent on the same shelf. move the body to a different location! Have a chance for a cluster of books to spawn instead of the succulent! Its a prefabricated hab structure, but that doesnt mean they come with such strict instructions as “Only succulent A on this shelf”
