  • The gnolls with hyenas are very tough. They are probably the toughest thing before you go to the Underdark or into the mountain pass

    Based on my DnD 5e experience, wizards like Gale come into their power once they get the Fireball spell, which happens at 5th level. Burning Hands is ok at lower levels but it tends to put the wizard in harm’s way

    Your party balance sounds reasonable. Better armor and higher constitution will help your paladin tank more over time

    Keep going. It’ll get easier and feel more natural over time






  • Moves like this always assume that location equals citizenship. As an EU citizen living in North America, a move like this means that I would not get the remedy that Apple legally owes me (or would owe me if I owned an iOS device)

    The main thing I’ve been sideloading on Android for a decade is a fan implementation of the Dominion card game called Androminion. It was trademark cease and desist removed from the Play Store a decade ago, but you can still get the apk on Github

    There’s a couple other things. One big gap in both the Google and Apple stores is the complete absence of adult content. I’m amazed there’s not more of a clamour for adult apps among either userbase, given that most people don’t own a normal computer. Sideloading could plug that gap





  • SV: One of the basic questions of the game was whether you would become a monster if it would save the world. So that’s where you get that in that moment. And then the interesting bit was, well, if you’re not going to do it, are you going to ask someone else to do it, or you just going to say, “F*ck everybody?” That’s essentially what that moment was.

    Yep. My first playthrough was as Karlach with a strict code of no non-consensual body mods ever again and no giving baddies power, so when I got to that choice the only true thing I could choose was “F*ck everybody” with the automatic loss dialog box. Oh well

    My current playthrough is as Astarion with a slightly more flexible moral code. Of course, now I’ve gone for the brainworms and I’m regretting it simply for the visual effects on the skin


  • Not sure if you are trolling, but no

    Meta is joining the Fediverse not because it needs the people currently on the Fediverse, but because it needs a regulatory figleaf to protect itself from monopoly charges. At Meta’s scale, there are 0 users on the Fediverse right now. There is no market benefit to getting Fediverse people to move to Meta

    What Meta gets out Threads/Fediverse compat is that suddenly Instagram is not technically a walled garden with platform lock-in, so while the number of people who’ll migrate from Instagram Threads to the Fediverse is going to be tiny they suddenly look a lot less like a mean monopoly to regulators

    At some point they might remove the Fediverse compat. The people currently screaming about embrace-extend-and-extinguish because Meta is joining will then scream about bait-and-switch even though they’ve had Threads defederated the whole time. The Fediverse will still be there. That’s the cycle of life
