@Yuuki I just showed my wife this and she says you're on her shit list lol

@Wipqozn I want this to be the new room description
"General Arqade Chat. We tried to leave once, but the door locks from the outside."
Some RO get on that
room topic changed to The Bridge: General Arqade chat, wherein you're locked in here with us [--gaming] [jin-fanclub] [lazers] [murder] [-politics] [-stars]
Aw come on, that's not the same
slash me dumps hot oil on you or whatever that guy does in that movie

Doesn't he just beat someone up with a cafeteria tray?
I forget
I haven't read/watched it in a while
the bridge is like a prison - Foucault 2023

Q: How do I save the Distressed Patient?

Kyle PollardI completed combat with Malus Thorm (The Surgeon), and there's a Distressed Patient still locked into the Surgical Bed. He is still alive, but he has the condition "In Surgery" which says "Unable to move while strapped onto the operating gurney". Right clicking on the Surgical Bed says that lockp...

So weird to think that with Sonic 3 we actually came so close to this real happening.
11:57
yep, we've almost gone to Simpsons now
just need ad men to see this and realize dead celebs can say no to doing ads for free
@Memor-X While I agree on the AI usage part, I have to ask something too. Do you know why I mentioned Sonic 3?
@SPArcheon nope
Supposed so.
12:20
Short version. Michael Jackson did work with Sega at some point. It is not an hoax. An probably Sega always tried to deny that because of the huge scandals in '93.
My point is that if history had went on a more decent route, Sonic Adventure could have ended up with MJ singing.
oh, btw if you don't believe the above...
Naka indirectly confirms that too.
13:06
@Memor-X see above explanation for context ^

This is why I'm a better mod than @Unionhawk. More like @LameHawk, amirite?!?!?!?!
The best Wipqozn RO removal remains the time @Frank (RIP) removed it from me when @badp (RIP) accidently froze the room for 24 hours
Since it removed my ability to talk

Q: Why would I use bartering instead of trading in Baldurs Gate 3?

fgysinBaldurs Gate 3 provides two options to exchange goods vs gold at merchants. Trade allows to simply buy/sell single items one after the other for a set price. Barter allows to... what? Fill the "barter section" with multiple items + gold and then do a deal against a similar selection of items + ...

@Wipqozn you got me looking old Bridge bookmarks and I found the time that I summoned spugsley (rip) by posting an image of Tom Hiddleston
I miss spugsley
And this classic:

Glad that hasn't been the case (well, mostly) since starting my current job
18:43
I think my second playthrough, I'm going to go Warlock 3/Eldritch Knight X for a melee fighter.
Or maybe full Paladin actually since my current playthrough already dips Warlock.
I thought you're primary class was warlock @Yuuki
Okay, this one fight in Act II I had to cheese enormously (though by quite legitimate means). A bit sad that this entirely trivializes the fight, but the straightforward version was just entirely bullshit with a large number of summons spawned and everyone pushing my people over the edge and instakilling them
@MadScientist You should've just avoided the fight with the power of friendship
@Yuuki bard is a pretty fun choice, there are a ton of dialogue options where you can use rapier wit, which will probably be a new and exciting experience for you /s
Also, I'll probably wind up buying baldur's gate 3
18:50
Unless you already are a bard, in which case disregard my starbait
@Wipqozn not an option as far as I can see (as long as you want to align with a specific side)
@MadScientist Never discount the power of friendship
I'm talking my way out of stuff all the time here, in one case I convinced a major enemy to first kill their minions, then their pet and then themselves
@MadScientist Their pet?! EVIL
@Wipqozn I'm primary Bard with a 2 level warlock dip.
19:01
@Yuuki You scamp
Bard is the best class
Warlock dip allows me to supplement my otherwise support-oriented and noncombat-focused Bard skillset with some damage without being worried about MAD.
@Yuuki MAD?
Multiple Attribute Dependency
Sounds mad
You only have so many starting stat points and ASIs, so it's bad to depend on multiple stats. 2 levels in Warlock lets me using CHA for respectable damage instead of needing to split myself with DEX.
19:05
Yes I understand
It's among the reasons why Sorcerer+Wizard is a suboptimal multiclass, especially since there's no Mystic Theurge prestige class.
I've been enjoying Lore Bard very much, I just wish I got some advanced notice on how the skill proficiencies worked.
My starting proficiency choices plus my background choice means that I missed out on two potential skill proficiencies.
@Yuuki Lord bard best bard
Sure but Sage background gave me Arcana proficiency and I picked Sleight of Hand as one of my starting proficiencies so I wasted those two choices because Lore Bard is hard-coded to give you those rather than a choice of any three proficiencies.
(And Intimidation)
Side note, why Arcana, Sleight of Hand, and Intimidation? Arcana makes sense for a Lore Bard but why not History, Religion, or even Survival for the other two?
20:01
I am otherwise very happy with Lore Bard though. Succeeding on skill checks is great.
Man, you're going to make me play BG3 for the rest of the day instead of working
@Yuuki I leave to say lore bard
@SaintWacko Working is for nerds
20:21
I bought it. SO STOP ASKING OKAY.
but I'll play around on my steam deck while I wait for the PC
inb4 I'm bored of it before the PC even arrives since CRPGs normally aren't my thing
but gosh darn it @Yuuki, you've tempted me
@Wipqozn save early, save often, and save scumming is okay in my book
ave
ave
@Yuuki still a classic
@Nzall I'll consider it
