I'm quite the fool

Sterno

Deadly Shadows was disappointing but still okay.

I haven't really played 4

Derpy

> "Don't think you can just jump back into the shadows, boy!"

two bugs

I would rank Thief series 2 >>> 1 > 3 >>> 4

4 isn't horrible but there's no reason to play it

Subpar aside from the hub, which is meh

The actual levels are really boring

Sterno

Sounds like Dishonored was a better Thief game than Thi4f

two bugs

@Sterno Absolutely. Hyped for 2.

Sterno

13:04

I never quite finished Dishonored. Think I had about 2 missions to go

two bugs

Dishonored was a game I loved but I tried to replay and it didn't grab me again

Progress update on Stardew Valley 1.1

> When starting a new character in version 1.1, you’ll be able to choose from five different farm maps (including the original map). Each map is based on a different skill, and includes unique gameplay opportunities that correspond to that skill.

KutuluMike

i just played that game this morning and was sad that it hadn't been updated lately

two bugs

@Yuuki Neat

Yuuki

@KutuluMike I'm worried that he's working on way too much content for a 1.1 update.

two bugs

13:16

I should play that game again at some point

Yuuki

@twobugs I'm waiting for 1.1 because I'm deadset on that Emily marriage.

KutuluMike

@twobugs well at this point may as well wait for 1.1 if you're gonna have to start over.

Derpy

@Yuuki At least you are waiting for Stardew. I am waiting for the annoying dog to remember that he has a pretty important stretch goal still to do.

Must convince myself this has something to do with his claim "I would wait at least one year before risking to spoil the game for someone"

Yep, have to believe.

two bugs

@KutuluMike Fair enough

@Yuuki I don't even remember who that is

KutuluMike

you can't marry emily?

Yuuki

13:24

@twobugs Cheery blue-haired girl.

@KutuluMike Nope.

two bugs

I barely interacted with the townspeople. I just farmed. I am a recluse.

Yuuki

Although CA has said he's adding Emily marriage in 1.1.

KutuluMike

Hayley's hotter. I've got a thing for pixellated blonde hair.

two bugs

Oh, I did the dungeon crawling too

KutuluMike

I never did get to the bottom of the second mines.

two bugs

13:25

I didn't get to the bottom of the first

The daily time and stamina felt limiting

Yuuki

Well, you're not supposed to do the whole thing at once.

KutuluMike

did you finish any of the community center quests?

once you unlock the mine carts you can get to the mines in like 15 minutes of game time.

two bugs

@KutuluMike I think I did onr book

KutuluMike

take the elevator down

Yuuki

You have more than enough time and stamina to go down five or ten levels, which unlocks the elevator.

KutuluMike

13:27

crawl until midnight or so

take the mine cart back in time to go to sleep

plus, if you mine enough stone you can just build stairs.

Tim Stone

Huh, nifty

two bugs

5 levels usually but the monsters started hitting really hard and people said food was the way to go

@KutuluMike True, I always forget that

KutuluMike

@twobugs well it's not a very scalable strategy.

you need lots of stairs

but if you're on a level and can't find the damn stairs, you can skip it

Yuuki

@twobugs Yeah, you really need to keep up with equipment upgrades, which is kinda annoying.

But tanking hits isn't a good strategy because you won't be able to do that at all in the second mines.

two bugs

I don't intend to tank hits, it just happens :/

Yuuki

13:39

@twobugs Oh no, I meant that keeping with armor upgrades helps in the first dungeon but it really doesn't prepare you for the second one.

two bugs

Ah, I see

KutuluMike

i don't think it's possible to run the second dungeon without stairs.

I think once time I got to level 30 before I had to leave.

Yuuki

I don't think there's a bottom.

KutuluMike

that might explain it.

i never got deep enough to get a lot of iridium

two bugs

I should level my alts in WoW through Legion. At least get artifact knowledge rolling

two bugs

14:06

Y'all qaeda leaders going to trial, about time

Yuuki

The fact that it's <CURRENT YEAR> and iOS still doesn't have a "select all" feature in its Photos app (or even a "delete all" feature) is a travesty.

two bugs

It's a travesty that I don't have a video game coffee mug

But yours is bad too

Yuuki

@twobugs I have go through and manually delete 3,000+ photos.

I hate Apple so much right now.

Derpy

@Yuuki If it required a lot of time to shoot them, then it should take a lot of time to delete them.

seems fine t me.

Yuuki

If it doesn't take very long to copy them over to somewhere else, it should not take a lot of time to delete them.

Derpy

14:19

@Yuuki DO NOT TRY TO CONFUSE US!

Thou shalt wait.

Yuuki

If you're being sarcastic, then I'm sorry that I didn't see it because I'm ~1,000 photos in and seething with rage against Apple.

MadMAxJr

Don't seethe with rage, that's how new iPhones are made.

two bugs

iPhone 8k, if you try to delete photos it duplicates them

Derpy

> Good! Use your aggressive feelings, boy. Let the hate flow through you!

wait, wrong movie.

@twobugs you are joking now, but what @yuuki doesn't yet know is that actually the IPhone doesn't even really delete the pictures....

or at least, it used to do so.

Q: Identify this game - 2.5D computer virus tower defense

I remember the following details: I played this game about 5-10 years ago. The graphics aren't the greatest, and I believe that it was even a bit pixel-like. I played this game on sites such as Addicting Games or Crazy Monkey Games, although I can't remember specifically which site. I'm assumin...

StrixVaria

14:27

@Lazers2.0 I wish people would stop commenting like this. Suggesting "if only you had an image" to someone who is trying to identify a game based on memory is completely unhelpful.

ITG questions with and without images are trying to solve completely different problems.

Yuuki

Well, I understand people wanting to explain why ITG without artifacts is off-topic, so how should we go about it?

MBraedley

Did @StrixVaria change his avatar again?

MadMAxJr

Accuse them of being a modded minecraft crash log in disguise.

Yuuki

@MBraedley He's used this one before, IIRC.

MBraedley

I don't remember seeing it before

StrixVaria

14:29

@Yuuki Just say "identifying games based only on memory of features is off topic" and leave it at that.

There's no reason to bring up audiovisual artifacts at all.

Wipqozn

@Sterno Actually since I have no idea how long I'm going to be lost in this mansion I'm breaking for food

Q: How did my Pokemon and Items storage increase without buying them?

Today, after I reset my mobile phone, I installed Pokemon Go from a downloaded APK and I logged in, and noticed that I now have an items storage limit of 400, and a Pokemon storage limit of 300. I have the same number of coins (under 100). Was this a reward I didn't notice before? I am level 23.

StrixVaria

@Sterno Right, this.

ragingasiancoder

@yuuki @Sterno ah didn't read his comment above.

StrixVaria

@Yuuki This is my first time using Scolipede.

Sterno

I haven't Overwatched in 2 weeks. I should correct this.

Yuuki

14:42

@StrixVaria I could've sworn I've seen you with Scolipede before.

StrixVaria

@Sterno Same. I've been so productive in time spent not overwatching, though.

@Yuuki I've probably talked about how awesome he is before, but I definitely had to add it to Gravatar to change it.

MadMAxJr

I bought the Gamemaker humble bundle. I used to be really good with this software back in college...

and realm grinder

SaintWacko

KutuluMike

14:59

and candy box 2

SaintWacko

Have any of those been updated?

Or are they still the same game as when everyone was playing them?

KutuluMike

yeah, I think everything but candy box was updated in the past week

SaintWacko

Hm!

KutuluMike

kittens game was updated but it's just more of the same stuff.

adding a new resource and new buildings to get the new resource.

SaintWacko

No you don't

badp

how can you iWork with your classmates?

arda

No, Everyone Can't Code. Simply, programming requires you to be able to think a certain way, and not everyone can think that way. You're just going to increase the fizzbuzz fail rate from 199/200 to 999/1000.
