d6's are incredibly stable and reliable unless i'm playing warhammer and i REALLY need to hit a charge, in which case it's time for snake eyes, reroll, snake eyes.

Went to a diner today, got a patty melt and a chocolate shake. The shake came with one of those aluminum cups with extra in it. Good things are still possible.

i always say 4e is my favorite game to come out of the D&D brand, though it is not my favorite D&D game. Everybody needs to be good at playing fast, though.

For a while I worked in a company that did not use a design test and had multiple games. We hired a fairly senior designer who argued that we should start using a design test. We didn't have time to write one that was about our game, so we used an existing test about another game. I felt so bad.

I once did an 8hr design test starting from the UE4 third person template which included building a rudimentary level, AI behavior, spawners, spawnwaves, interactables, and objective functionality. I built a lot in 8 hours. They said no and their feedback was that I could have pushed things further

I often find that the "do it by hand" way isn't necessarily that slow either, especially with tools that allow for good filtering, copy pasting, etc.

Only 23% of government workers believe they “can report a suspected violation of a law, rule, or regulation without experiencing retaliation.” That's way down form the share the prior year (72%) who said they could report suspected illegal activity without fear www.thebulwark.com/p/two-more-g...

A couple of games from the last 5 years: Road 96 has a unique and exceptional narrative. The design of their narrative systems is fascinating. Pentiment leverages mundane history to create a fascinating setting. Neon White has a very good story in a game that could have just not had one.

Preferably you'd carry two decimators so you can take down a tank if you have to, but that means you have less space for ammo, medkits, and other utility items.

The Decimator from Planetside 1. It's a non-reloadable rocket launcher with 3 shots. No tracking, high damage, a very potent anti armor weapon. A tank could die to 4-5 hits. The most interesting thing though is that it took up a lot of inventory space that could be used for other supplies.
