Hello myself! I did some more searching, and I found a mod called Enemy Scaling that has what I want! You can directly modify enemy health values, by category even (so I can ramp down boss healths more than regular mobs or w/e). Got it installed, and going to test playing it tonight. Wanted to post my find for anyone else who finds this thread
I was making an account to play Command & Conquer: Renegade. The NOD team had a unit called the Chem Warrior that shot liquid tiberium like a flame thrower, thought it was super cool. Don’t remember how I ended up on Slayer instead, but it stuck
+1 for connect, I was originally on Jerboa but it crashed so dang often. I like that switching accounts is easy, makes it a breeze to have my general interests Beehaw account and my niche interests account and swap between them
I love RimWorld, and I love DRM-free, but RimWorld on GoG is a mistake.
Instead, buy RimWorld directly from Ludeon. Then you get both DRM-free files from them (to enjoy in the fallout bunker), AND a steam key (so that you can easily enjoy the metric boatloads of modding content on the steam workshop).
Slay the Spire is a classic, it’s all turn based, playing is easy but mastering it is a deep skill if that’s something you’re into.
Divinity: Original Sin 2 is a cool CRPG, the exploration is real-time and it switched to turn based for combat. Very big and large, and you can spend a lotta time running around learning lore rather than fighting if that’s what you like.
Persona 5 Royal is a dream, again turn-based fighting, cute characters and story, very anime. Also long (took me like 90 hours) but never feels drawn-out.
If you like board games, I’ve recently got the Aeons End digital adaptation, and that’s a lotta fun. It’s co-op, but you can play “two-handed” (aka control 2 people) and it works pretty flawlessly, and the app is very good. If you really wanna be ambitious you can even play up to 4-handed, but I feel like that’s too much brainpower for any sane person lol
Oh man, this takes me back. I’m going to share my favorite GW2 memory, because I can.
I was playing my main (a thief), wandering around some zone or another. I happened upon a cool looking elite and tried to take it, but it was too powerful and I had to retreat. After I did so, I noticed another player arrive and also go for the elite, and decided I could jump in with him and get the loot too.
We killed it, I don’t remember the loot, but what I do remember is the strange portal opening…
We enter, and are teleported to a bizarre other region. We regroup, and spend some time exploring before accidentally finding a portal out of the place and being teleported to random spots in the region.
We immediately /pm each other and regroup at the elite, both eager to find what’s really in that other place. Cue 2+ hours of exploration, solving jumping puzzles, and just camaraderie with this stranger I’d never met exploring a beautiful and mystifying area. Finally we reach the prize, a big chest of loot and an achievement, and teleport out.
I never saw them again, and I don’t need to. It was such an amazing experience, just raw human connection and exploration, happening by pure coincidence in a game I played exclusively solo. I enjoyed a lot of things about GW2, but that one memory will always stick in my mind, and I haven’t found an experience like that since
I’ve loved tingle, I’ve read most of his Asexual stories (which do a great job of both portraying ace and satirizing/joking around with it) and also Straight. I gotta say though, while Straight was an enjoyable read, it wasn’t really good as far as being a horror novel went. But that’s fair for the guys first try, and I’m interested to see what his next “serious” offering reads like
