Keep in mind it didn't just go straight there, it was surveying planets, mining asteroids and building more of itself all the way. If it's meant to stop at each potential habitable planet it can't ever go too fast because it needs as much time and fuel to slow down as it does to accelerate.

and i say that when i'm still in the first region, which literally every review says is by far the weakest of the four

the music and artwork are just loving insane and the writing is actually restrained. it's not as uh gratuitous as Fallen London or Sunless Seas

This is possibly the only game with a freemium pay to win heritage that actually still manager to be very good. I sort of feel like Fallen London is also the only good freemium game I ever played though.

Its just a weird transition, from text based freemium resource collector to something as genuinely fun as Sunless Skies ends up being

Sorry for asking here but Im not finding the New Vegas Modding thread and I need a little help.

So Im installing the Viva New Vegas set and im on tweaking the ini here https://vivanewvegas.github.io/mo2.html#ini_notes

WHen it says to paste stuff in, am I just copying the stuff they put and pasting it in or am I finding the INIs written and changing the values to what they have written down.

Cooking update: I have now cooked all of my dishes. I did two garlic pepper chicken marinades and then a large amount of chicken soup. The garlic pepper was alright but I definitely need to figure out some kind of better prep method. I've never once not overcooked the chicken and so it always ends up kind of chewy. The flavor was fine in the first batch but too mild so I added 70% more peppers and it was a lot better. I think I definitely need to do something more with the rice though. This is like my third time using a Chipotle copycat recipe and once again its nowhere close so Im thinking about just abandoning this project and just going with other recipes that sound good.

The soup I made this morning at 2am and it was VERY good though. Really simple, just garlic + ginger, broken down rice, chicken, and sweet potatoes, took me like forty minutes total to make a ton of it. This is I think the first thing I've made where it's actually better than something I could have bought at the store. I'll take a picture when I eat the rest of it, I took one this morning but the LEDs + the color of my bowl made it look not good

Are you using white meat for your chicken? Chicken breasts are relatively finicky since they’re so lean, dark meat is waaaay harder to overcook and isn’t even super fatty compared to breasts if you skin it first iirc. Can’t help you on chipotle style rice though.

Congrats on the soup!

I think so? Honestly no idea. I get whatever breasts are cheapest in the deli section. But yeah I didnt even bother with their rice recipe because I knew it wasn't gonna be right. I can see behind the counter I KNOW they have a gallon jug of what looks like lime milk back there if you're not approaching that zone I'm not even gonna try it

I liked RE8age too but I don't think the series is as interesting to me as it was back when I was 17. At one point it was probably my favorite video game franchise, now it's merely pretty cool.

Chicken breasts/tenderloins = white meat, drums/thighs/wings = dark, for future reference. Idk how prices are everywhere cause I think it varies some but at least here bone-in dark meat is about $1 and the breasts are $2.

In the UK most chicken costs about the same as a small house but bone in thighs only cost the same as a used car

I'm glad i like dumb niche games because i'd literally have nothing to play otherwise. Days gone and RE8 were ok but left my mind immediately after completing them. Time to play through bloodborne or Darksouls 3 again.

It’s sad cause the parts that aren’t super transparently the writers living out some kind of hosed fetish are kinda neat cause they explain why she’s so apathetic and checked out but umm, it’s still the link that’s super transparently the devs living out some kinda fetish so yeah.

Your two doofus friends basically dare you to call up a housemaid service one night, lo and behold your teacher shows up in a French maid costume, it's clearly also an escort service, she's been moonlighting as a housemaid/prostitute, she says "ok uh oh don't tell anyone, also feel free to call the service and request me again", you do the next day, and invite her to your attic room, she hangs out (in maid costume again) and says "I'll let you slack off more in class if you'll keep my secret, also request me anytime, wink"

I forget the name of what it actually is, but with that job she's not a prostitute in the sense people usually think of it, while the job is close to a definition as obvious fetish stuff, it's an actual thing and it's basically just sexy costume housemaid'ing and that's it, it's later on and what kicks her s-link into big serious time is that she's getting threatened to go to actual prostitution to pay off her situation.
