gameplay-mechanics has reincarnated as game-mechanics?

Q: How do you solve the small techno room?

It's a small room that looks different from anything in the game, it just has a pillar and the controller vibrates when you're near it.

Q: Is it possible to rename your characters after starting a game?

I recently started a new game and actually spent a decent amount of time building my characters instead of using the pre-built stuff. However, I completely forgot to give them names so now everybody is named something like "New Character". Of course, this isn't game-breaking in the least but it's...

my god, I spent an entire day without my VPS. I hate you, VPS provider

anybody got a good VPS provider that I can get something real budget from ($5/mo or so, 2 ipv4, 512 ram/20gb storage or so)

Sterno

I find the amount of fez on the site very odd.

agent86

@Sterno we've got fez now - fez is cool.

user2334

Whoa, more prominent and renamed meta block on SE sites now

Sterno

11:26 PM

The name Swords and Sworcery pains me in a deep and fundamental way.

Raven Dreamer

@MarkTrapp eh?

user2334

user2334

Moved up a couple of places, more contrasting design, and went from "Visit meta" to "Community Bulletin"

Wipqozn Pugsley

Oh wow, that's a lot better.

The old one was barely noticeable.

user2334

@Sterno Swhat's swrong swith it?

11:35 PM

@MarkTrapp don't make me swat you with a swammer

user2334

LessPop_MoreFizz

I hate New Jersey so much.

agent86

okay, I am going to beat these VPS hosting people with a tire iron

LessPop_MoreFizz

@Sterno That game is so good. I am so happy that it is finally available to people without iOS devices so I have more people to harangue about it.

agent86

11:37 PM

a heavy, heavy, tire iron. I may need to build a custom tire iron for maximum damage and swingability

LessPop_MoreFizz

Also, please, the proper title is Superbrothers Swords and Sworcery EP.

StrixVaria

@LessPop_MoreFizz :(

LessPop_MoreFizz

@StrixVaria WHY CAN NOBODY HERE TURN LEFT

Raven Dreamer

Because we have yet to master Blue Steel.

StrixVaria

@LessPop_MoreFizz Embrace the jughandle.

Hudson County is okay. Hudson county can stay.

But Bergen can fuck right off.

So happy to be done with Bergen.

Raven Dreamer

Oh, geez.

-86 rep: "User was removed". :/

StrixVaria

I live in Monmouth county. Those north Jersey counties are all the same to me.

LessPop_MoreFizz

Tomorrow I start on Passaic and I am sure I will hate it just as much.

Thankfully after tomorrow I hand over New Jersey back to the designated New Jersey Person and return to other, more fulfilling tasks.

Like catching up on two months of expense reports.

StrixVaria

To be fair, when there's an actual left turn in NJ people always cut the turn too early and almost clip the cars in the other lane as they turn.

So the jughandle is good to make up for driver stupidity.

LessPop_MoreFizz

@StrixVaria Yes. Like I said, nobody here can turn left.

At least in Pittsburgh, it is A Thing That People Do.

here it is just mass incompetence.

StrixVaria

11:45 PM

@LessPop_MoreFizz Having not driven in other parts of the country much, maybe I just don't know what I'm missing.

Are you saying people in other states actually know how to drive?

Because that would be incredible.

LessPop_MoreFizz

@StrixVaria It's highly variable. But turning left is not a common handicap.

Re: Pittsburgh, I am talking about:

Pittsburgh left

The Pittsburgh left is a colloquial term for the driving practice of the first left-turning vehicle taking precedence over vehicles going straight through an intersection, associated with the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania area. The practice is also referred to as a Boston left. It is an illegal and controversial practice. Process The Pittsburgh Left involves two cars facing one another waiting at a traffic light or other stop signal: one turning left and one going straight. (The signal in question has no dedicated left-turn advance green.) The left-turning car will anticipate the green light,...

Q: What is the secret of the Cube Statues in Fez?

What am I supposed to do with these statue/towers?

fez

Q: How do I beat Fez? I'm serious

I remember walking into a room and dot saying something along the lines of "I can't believe it! A working stargate", but I didnt go through it because I didn't know if it was the end. I'm assuming that was the end of the game. Problem is, I don't know where that room is anymore. The only anticub...

Tim Stone

Oh, well as long as you're serious...

StrixVaria

@LessPop_MoreFizz I hate this.

I hate a lot of things when I drive (and otherwise), though...

LessPop_MoreFizz

@StrixVaria As I said, It Is A Thing That People Do There.

It only works if everyone goes along with it.

Which, for the most part, people in Pittsburgh do.

elsewhere... not so much.

StrixVaria

11:51 PM

People do it in New Jersey, too.

Raven Dreamer

@TimStone But are they pro?

LessPop_MoreFizz

@StrixVaria Except the people who do it in New Jersey are careless assholes.

StrixVaria

@LessPop_MoreFizz Which is why I hate it.

LessPop_MoreFizz

@StrixVaria When it is a socially accepted widespread custom, and people signal the opposing left turner through as a course of habit, then it is not behavior which is worthy of hatred.

and I totally just typed haterade instead of hatred there.

StrixVaria

@LessPop_MoreFizz I would drink that.

Tim Stone

11:53 PM

@RavenDreamer Muchly, I'm sure

Raven Dreamer

@StrixVaria KoL did it first.

StrixVaria

@RavenDreamer Not sure what that stands for.

Raven Dreamer

Actually, I don't know if that's true.
