Memento posted:Bethesda "accidentally" made the release of one of the old Doom games on switch require internet connectivity and a Bethesda account to play. They're rolling it back, but how the gently caress do you code a complicated online authorisation system and implement it into a ~20 year old game "accidentally" - unless that's a cover for "we were called on our bullshit and are deleting it". doom is closer to 30 years old lol

Son of Thunderbeast posted:lmfao you don't accidentally add UI elements that say "A Bethesda.net account is required to play" Bought the games on switch before learning about this bs, and I’m on a trip and literally can’t even load the game without being connected to WiFi, it just freezes. Speaking of Doom, does anyone have a copy of the daily struggle meme with the doom guy trying to choose between rip and tear or tear and rip?

The links seem to not work too well but it's worth a play if you can find it.

theflyingorc posted:The whole point is that you only get one question Yeah, but when the guards are giving out the information, it's automatically broken. Since the liar wouldn't give valid information about the puzzle. The usual setup is there's a door with a sign telling you you can ask a single question and one is a liar/one is honest

Guard two is the liar, so by saying 'the other nothing but lies' is a lie if its referring to the other guard, guard one, who in fact tells the truth. Logic is consistant.

I always thought that Dungeons and Dragons was some obscure game from long ago that was basically dead and thrown into movies and books and things as shorthand for turbonerd, but apparently it is thriving enough to have a large meme-making community, so good on them. I’m glad people are out there enjoying something imaginative and nerdy. Still, I’ve never heard the phrase “Dungeons and Dragons” spoken aloud in real life or discussed by anyone. I don’t get how such an apparently freeform activity would even work in any kind of structured, repeatable manner so it could spread around

freeedr posted:I don’t get how such an apparently freeform activity would even work in any kind of structured, repeatable manner so it could spread around to be fair, neither do D&D players and nobody's called it "Dungeons and dragons" except in the news for decades, everyone just calls it D&D or whatever other tabletop game they're playing (e.g. Pathfinder, Shadowrun, etc.)

I’m glad people are out there enjoying something imaginative and nerdy. Stranger Things and Critical Role are really getting high schoolers and young adults into d&d I run scripted sessions that the game creators write into "modules" -- little campaign books that do world creation for you--each week at a card shop in town. Almost without exception, people playing for the first time heard about it because of stranger things and/or watching critical role Potato Salad has a new favorite as of 17:06 on Jul 30, 2019 |

I'd like to play a game one of these days. One thing that kind of puts me off is, doesn't it take a really long time to calculate the effect of rolls and such? I'm used to D&D-based video games where the computer does that for you.

just remember: the single most important part of any DnD session is bringing snacksPhlegmish posted:I'd like to play a game one of these days. One thing that kind of puts me off is, doesn't it take a really long time to calculate the effect of rolls and such? I'm used to D&D-based video games where the computer does that for you. It really depends on the DM being good at moving things along and everyone being on the same page. ie, if someone is just there to throw the adventure off the rails, that's fine as long as everyone is doing it. But if it's 4 people trying to follow the story and 1 guy just trying to kill every NPC who might have a quest for you it sucks. Also, bring snacks.

But true if you take it as a sentence. Either way it breaks the riddle since either he must be the liar so there's nothing to figure out with a question, or they're both telling the truth.

I'm used to D&D-based video games where the computer does that for you. As others have said it largely depends on the DM (both their experience level and their temperament) Simple, common things like attacking and using spells As They Are Intended are not that time consuming. Doing weird poo poo certainly can be OR the DM can just arbitrarily assign a difficulty to certain activities based on their own experience and feel for things.
