I hate when games launch directly into a cutscene. Let me change my graphics, turn on subtitles, change the audio, etc.

The only game I can think of that doesn’t actually require a restart is Mechwarrior 5: Mercenaries. I’m sure there’s more, but that’s what I’ve encountered.

First, I’m not an electrician, or anything even vaguely approaching one.

I’ve never heard that advice with extension cords, only power strips.

You could theoretically link enough extension cords together to cause problems, but it would need to be some extremely shit extension cords or a LOT of them. Resistance increases over distance, which in power cables manifests as them getting hotter. That isn’t a problem until all the sudden it is a problem.

For power strips, the main danger is that you’re potentially introducing more outlets than any of them are rated for. If you’re just using 2 3ft power bars to functionally make a 6ft cable that you’re only plugging a single thing into… you’re fine. Or at least I was, idk I did it for like a whole year. If you’re plugging 16 things into a single wall outlet via power strips you can trip the circuit breaker, or potentially much worse stuff can happen like things getting melty and starting a fire.

If you know enough of what you’re doing to math out the power draw+what your outlet/power strips are rated for you can pretty (afaik) safely daisy chain them if you wanna.

My brain just autocorrected it, I guess. My b.

Did you even read the OP or have they changed it?

I started with PF1E, so 5E kinda feels… overly simple at times lol

Depends on your system. I’ve not actually played a TTRPG where that’s how crits worked. I believe that’s how it works in PF2E, though, which I really wanna try. Just can’t manage to convince the nerds I play with.

Lot of great suggestions here- I grabbed MCC myself. Was kinda stunned that it’s… I think five games ranging from absolutely era defining (at least for me) to solid games. For $10 I’m not sure that can be beat.

Well, shit. TIL. That sucks.

The Owlcat Pathfinder CRPGs aren’t on the deep discounts list, but Kingmaker is 85% off ($2.99) and Wrath Of The Righteous is 70% off ($11.99). Both are solid games.

It’s not very patient gamer of me, but if you want specifically 3-player games Space Marine 2 comes to mind immediately. Kinda pricey, though.

Halo: Reach with Gashnor’s Cursed Halo: Reach mod

It’s not ideal, but in a pinch: yes.

Oh, dear. No, I meant like a baby chicken. It’s apparently a reasonably common thing.

Yeah. It’s better than it used to be- you can get a reasonable output far easier than you could previously, but if it’s going to fuck up anything it’s going to fuck up the hands.

There’s more than one video of horses eating a chick.

TIL, that’s really neat.

It sounds like you’re looking for deep meaningful conversation in the comments of thirst trap posts. Which is wild.

I’ve been playing this for a couple days now, I’m absolutely loving it.

Right when I think the game is done it’s hit me with six more features and a bunch more stuff I can unlock. Plus I’m a LotR nerd so the plot is interesting.

Also, the mining songs are amazing and I love that.

I remember commenting in a sub and getting bounced by automod because I didn’t meet a karma limit. Which is fine, lots of subs have karma limits. But it felt really high- I had a couple thousand karma at the time- and the mods explicitly wouldn’t tell you what the actual limit was.

So I guess you’re just supposed to let automod bounce you occasionally til you manage to hit their magic number.
