    Finally finished my first playthrougb of disco Elysium. Absolute masterpiece. Can’t wait to do a full schizo second run.

    Not about videogames, but my master announced that our DnD campaign will be put on hiatus after the current arc is finished, as he doesn’t have time anymore to prep.

    I’m considering mastering a short campaign, but it’s really difficult. I don’t like half-assing things and I end up spending too much time on prep, and eventually stop having fun.

    It’s also a very heterogeneous group this time around, compared to the last time I mastered a campaign, which makes things a bit more difficult.

      You gotta put “game” or “dungeon” in front of the word “master” for this my dude.

    I’m still playing BG3: I’ve just recently started Act 3, and I am still loving the game, though I’m finding it harder to stay focused at this point. I’m also starting to think about how to play a more evil character in my next playthrough without being a total asshole, but we’ll see how that comes along.

      Every time I try to role play as an evil protagonist I start feeling bad for NPCs or get fomo about rewards I’ll be missing. Not sure if I’ve gone full evil since Fable 1.

      I’m currently addicted to BG3! I spent basically my entire weekend playing, and I think I’m close to the end of act 1. I’m playing a Druid.

        I just started with oil (for the first time getting that far and made my first train too!) and I can’t help but want to start over again from scratch to make everything cleaner…

        The factory must grow, yes but THERE MUST BE ORDER

        I also made a circuit system which was actually surprisingly simple. I only did it to make it so that it would leave some oil behind in a tank instead of pushing it all into the train, but it was pretty cool

          You can always just start a new base next to your old base and divert resources to the new one. Eventually you can just delete the old base.

    My partner and I are chest-deep into BG3. We had a third teammate, but he got too busy with life…and wasn’t really a team player to begin with. But we’re absolutely loving the game and have happily become unproductive members of society since we started playing a few weeks ago.

      I’m waiting for the DLC. Kinda scared, though. When I last played I was jobless, depressed, living at home and would play for ~10 hours a day.

      I want a mod that makes it a little easier to get to the logistics robots faster, but without a complete overhaul, the extensive mods are too much for me…m

        The upcoming DLC has improvements for bots. Can’t remember the details but one of the FFF explains it. Might solve some of your problems.
