12-08-2018 00:30:32 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: It was mostly through PMs about that immortal game.
12-08-2018 00:30:41 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:qupj:mtqt:tqil:yjru:opzw: Academy one?
12-08-2018 00:30:44 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: Yeah.
12-08-2018 00:31:06 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: GM said that you can't distract someone without the same roll you would do to just pickpocket them, so that's out.
12-08-2018 00:31:51 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:qupj:mtqt:tqil:yjru:opzw: Couldn't you have someone just go up to them and stab them in the face as a distraction?
12-08-2018 00:32:09 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: Apparently it would only work as a distraction if it does no damage and is done as a stealth roll.
12-08-2018 00:32:45 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: bah

12-08-2018 00:33:00 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: That might get changed, I used the example of going to a theme park and getting strapped in a roller coaster.  It wouldn't be a roll to make that effective at reducing the ability to dodge, for instance.
12-08-2018 00:33:15 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:qupj:mtqt:tqil:yjru:opzw: Probably, yeah.  Whatcha wanna stream?
12-08-2018 00:33:55 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: It might be stealth to hide a weapon, yeah, but if I don't have one there shouldn't be a roll to get someone to do something normal for the situation, even if it puts them at a disadvantage in some way.
12-08-2018 00:33:58 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:qupj:mtqt:tqil:yjru:opzw: Somehow I feel that's more likely to nerf rollercoasters than buff thieving.

12-08-2018 00:43:53 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: well, being too high quality is a good complaint to get~
12-08-2018 00:44:41 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: no shields, but you can block with anything and I think it always blocks 100% damage unless it uses up all your stamina
12-08-2018 00:44:43 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:qupj:mtqt:tqil:yjru:opzw: I can keep trying if you want to play the downscale game.
12-08-2018 00:44:51 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: you can't move while blocking though
12-08-2018 00:44:52 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:qupj:mtqt:tqil:yjru:opzw: That's terrible...
12-08-2018 00:45:15 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: and putting up your block uses a bit of stamina
12-08-2018 00:47:45 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:qupj:mtqt:tqil:yjru:opzw: I want a Souls game where you're as ambidextrous as DaS II, and can only block with about 80% resist *at best*.  Maybe superheavy greatshields would get like 90% or something.  And twohanding weapons doesn't increase damage, just changes movest.

12-08-2018 03:18:17 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:qupj:mtqt:tqil:yjru:opzw: In this char's run, I accidentally murdered Laurentius due to a bug, and never bought Flash Sweat.  Which means I can't block Gwyn (I'm unsure if I could even with it, actually).  BUT, I've now figured out how to safely chain ripostes against him, with fist weapons and longswords.

12-08-2018 03:28:30 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:qupj:mtqt:tqil:yjru:opzw: Laurentius sells Flash Sweat, which massively reduces fire damage.  It's necessary romitigate Gwyn's fire damage at low HP and high NG cycles.

It takes >10 ripostes to kill Gwyn, and about half of his wakeup attacks are too fast to react to.  I can't take even one blocked hit.  I need to be able to avoid 100% of his wakeup moves, and entering into a chain is really just a matter of skill; waiting for the parriable charges, mostly.

12-08-2018 04:21:44 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: They're the easiest race, but I usually let the dice decide.
12-08-2018 04:21:58 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: My win rate is about 60% overall on these settings.
12-08-2018 04:22:42 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: hmm
12-08-2018 04:22:44 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: Yeah, I want some time to think about this.
12-08-2018 04:23:06 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: I need a lot more firepower to blow up one of their planets, overall.
12-08-2018 04:23:24 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: I walk into a room, "recycling" pops up for the area name. It's a workshop. Full of severed human limbs.
12-08-2018 04:23:27 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: a better weapon tech might let me put a fusion bomb on a small ship, or let me put two of them on a medium, but yeah.
12-08-2018 04:24:45 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: if they wardecked over that I'd probably resign, but this way it'll give me slightly more of a chance.
12-08-2018 04:25:46 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: Also, the fact they have weak computers is really odd.  There are techs in there that multiply your factory count per population.  As soon as they choose to research one of those they'll triple their production and missile base counts.
12-08-2018 04:26:57 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: It'd be much easier if I had access to any of the other races.  A few tech trades wouldn't do miracles, but it might let me pick up factory count 3 to add 50% to my production, or a few other nice things.  I'd have to give up something very useful to my opponents, but I'd gladly do that to anyone not Psilon.
12-08-2018 04:28:20 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: Hell, I might do that to the Psilons assuming I don't fill one of their tech holes.  Get soil enrichment for 25% greater population on my planets, (which they heavily charge for), or construction tech for better ship armour and more space on my ships.
12-08-2018 04:28:43 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: Tech trades are very different than most games, though.  You pick what you want from a limited list of what they're willing to trade you, and then the AI tells you what it wants for that tech.
12-08-2018 04:29:25 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: I'll go check what the Psilons have on offer right now,a ctually.
12-08-2018 04:31:56 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: I have one tech they want, Inertial Stabilizer, the +2 defense +1 tactical combat move ship special.  They're willing to offer a number of interesting techs for it, actually.
12-08-2018 04:35:12 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: Oh, there's the way out, they're willing to trade class VI shields for it.
12-08-2018 04:35:22 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: Their missile bases shoot missiles that do 6 damage each.
12-08-2018 04:35:27 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: 6-6 = 0 damage.
12-08-2018 04:36:21 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: I think they have Hyper-Xs which do 8 damage, but still, that's a big help for bomber surviveability.
12-08-2018 04:40:52 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: No, it's Merculites, which are 10 damage.  That renders shields 6 more or less meaningless.
12-08-2018 04:41:12 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: but I can trade for those, which add five tech levels and a rung to my weapons.
12-08-2018 04:41:20 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: taken!  Smaller weapons will help a lot.
12-08-2018 04:42:09 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: huh, the game feels better when I'm not tilting all over
12-08-2018 04:42:52 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: it has basically the bloodborne dodge, so going back to DS might become awkward :P
12-08-2018 04:43:10 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: maybe it's good that dodge is a different button in this
12-08-2018 04:43:33 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:qupj:mtqt:tqil:yjru:opzw: BB's dodge is basically just a ninja flip.
12-08-2018 04:43:48 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:qupj:mtqt:tqil:yjru:opzw: Least as far as speed.
12-08-2018 04:44:07 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: omnidirectional, though
12-08-2018 04:45:31 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:qupj:mtqt:tqil:yjru:opzw: Unlock, you lockon scrub.
12-08-2018 04:45:53 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:qupj:mtqt:tqil:yjru:opzw: DaS has the best dodge system, it's omnidirectional AND you can control facing.
12-08-2018 04:46:19 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:qupj:mtqt:tqil:yjru:opzw: It's really annoying to reverse roll in BB or DaS III.
12-08-2018 04:59:00 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: Yeah, the small bombers meant I could put together a thousand of them in less time than the hundred medium ones.  And they were able to dodge the scatter packs at movement 3.  Could take out a dozen bases.
12-08-2018 04:59:46 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: Also, the Psilon fleet ships are terrible designs.. almost all missile armed.  Means I can hold them off with a small handful of dodgy gunships.
12-08-2018 05:00:28 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: (The missiles run out of fuel and can't kill the ships, forcing them to retreat.  It doesn't apply to their land bases, but the lack of computers makes the Alkari bonus still relevant.)
12-08-2018 05:00:31 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: I may have hope after all.
12-08-2018 05:00:32 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: by default, it auto locks on when you HIT an enemy
12-08-2018 05:00:48 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: and locking on lets you target body parts
12-08-2018 05:01:04 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:qupj:mtqt:tqil:yjru:opzw: D:
12-08-2018 05:01:47 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:qupj:mtqt:tqil:yjru:opzw: Why do you need to target body parts, anyway?
12-08-2018 05:02:33 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:qupj:mtqt:tqil:yjru:opzw: GG on pulling a chance of victory from a seemingly unwinnable situation, Dev.
12-08-2018 05:03:06 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: It's not a win yet.
12-08-2018 05:03:20 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: Long, long way from a win, but I nicked off that rich planet to the upper centre.
12-08-2018 05:03:29 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: And they might research a bomb tech and blow me to smithereens.
12-08-2018 05:03:47 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: Also, my defences are paper, and they still have 17 planets to my 9.
12-08-2018 05:03:55 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: you need to target body parts to cut the good bits off advanced enemies.
12-08-2018 05:04:18 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: I also got no technologies, the rich planet only had 95 factories.
12-08-2018 05:04:19 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: or whack them in their unarmored parts to dispose of them quickly
12-08-2018 05:04:28 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: (I don't know the odds, but that's usually good for one or two.)
12-08-2018 05:05:20 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:qupj:mtqt:tqil:yjru:opzw: I would prefer if you targeted body parts naturally, by aiming strikes so that they hit
12-08-2018 05:05:43 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: Still, +1 for me, and a nice rich planet.  If I can hold it, I should be able to keep afloat on the research front.  Plus I have the lovely Stinger missiles on my tree, which are 15 dam speed four missiles with +3 to hit, so are quite sufficient for blowing up big ships.
12-08-2018 05:06:06 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:qupj:mtqt:tqil:yjru:opzw: Do a low sweep from your left, you hit their right leg.  Do a big downward chop and aim it right, you hit the head, or the torso if you're a little off.
12-08-2018 05:07:46 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: Anyway, only played a dozen more turns.  I'm still bad off, and I need to do a little more base building.
12-08-2018 05:11:01 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: There's the Psilon fleet.
12-08-2018 05:15:02 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: Nope, couldn't hold it.  They have heavy bioweapons on some of the ships, and class IV shields don't stop crap, even against no bombs.
12-08-2018 05:17:24 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:qupj:mtqt:tqil:yjru:opzw: Oh well.  Think it's going to spiral into a full loss?
12-08-2018 05:25:46 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: Yeah, it's a loss.  Their fleet is terrible at nailing planets, but I'm a thousand years from planetary shield.  If I wasn't so cut off I might have been able to get it in some other way.
12-08-2018 05:27:10 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: Basically they can just wipe it out with super-advanced warships.  I could probably do some serious damage if I had planetary shields, as 14 levels of shield would render their guns almost ineffective, but IV levels of shield isn't sufficient to squat.  I might reload and take my shot at a more developed planet, see if I can actually steal techs from my one capture, but that might not do it....
12-08-2018 05:27:11 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: ... I'll count it as a loss and might do some reload action.
12-08-2018 05:27:44 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: The annoying part is I scored one capture, but got zero techs from it.

12-08-2018 05:55:44 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:qupj:mtqt:tqil:yjru:opzw: Firefox mobile just displays a ∞ symbol once I have more than 99 tabs.
12-08-2018 05:55:54 < midnightjaguar!Mutter@539.sub-457-056-462.myvzw.com: Heh
12-08-2018 05:56:03 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:qupj:mtqt:tqil:yjru:opzw: Which is pretty appropriate, frankly.
12-08-2018 05:56:09 < midnightjaguar!Mutter@539.sub-457-056-462.myvzw.com: Yup
12-08-2018 05:56:37 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: Yeah, a werewolf song might be useful.  Not enough mana to ask someone to do that for Alida, but it might be handy if I don't get it cured after the mission.
12-08-2018 05:57:28 < midnightjaguar!Mutter@539.sub-457-056-462.myvzw.com: Well I’ve got a couple of options for you. Do you want regular metal or power metal?
12-08-2018 05:57:47 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: Either is good, but explicit lyrics help.

12-08-2018 06:01:27 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:qupj:mtqt:tqil:yjru:opzw: MJ introduced me to Powerwolf awhile ago, and... well, it
12-08-2018 06:01:35 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:qupj:mtqt:tqil:yjru:opzw: 's an appropriate name.

12-08-2018 06:02:37 < midnightjaguar!Mutter@539.sub-457-056-462.myvzw.com: Heh, I had not read that one dev
12-08-2018 06:02:44 < midnightjaguar!Mutter@539.sub-457-056-462.myvzw.com: That is something
12-08-2018 06:04:08 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: anyway, sounds like either tune would boost it.

12-08-2018 06:06:24 < midnightjaguar!Mutter@539.sub-457-056-462.myvzw.com: No prob.
12-08-2018 06:08:00 < syv!syvarris@2001:5b0:2a6c:qupj:mtqt:tqil:yjru:opzw: Oh?  Why's that, Dev?

The story is interesting and I like the focus on storytelling, even going as far as the way the story is told.

12-08-2018 19:03:40 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: Posted in Coven.  You should be good for your current turn, we'll meet up for the heist after this one.
12-08-2018 19:04:36 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: Hey Dev.
12-08-2018 19:04:50 < Devastator!chatzilla@ujfp-4e0lc2xe0pue0t74c9tl9og9u.ipv4.telus.net: I'm just heading right out the door so no time to talk.
12-08-2018 19:12:59 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: I was expecging the hazmat geat to be a bit more enclosing.  :(
12-08-2018 19:20:28 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: Plenty of female voices in this game, but all the enemies seem to be male.
12-08-2018 19:20:36 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: yeah
12-08-2018 19:21:15 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: also no character creation, so you're always a dude
12-08-2018 19:21:18 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: I suppose you almost never stab female hollows in DaS, so not really worse.
12-08-2018 19:21:40 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: I figured, since "Warren" is voiced.  Also male.
12-08-2018 19:22:51 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: but they have audiologs from a woman who seems to be going through things very similar to Warren, so yay?
12-08-2018 19:23:09 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: She sounds a lot less badass and choppy. :(
12-08-2018 19:23:41 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: Warren just plain doesn't say much, unfortunately
12-08-2018 19:26:42 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: You know, I bet an actual DaS protagonist with a sword would do pretty well in this world.  A lot of these crazies have huge gaps in their exoskeletons, and even the heaviest ones don't look significantly more armored than Havel.
12-08-2018 19:26:59 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: A zwei would still mess them up/
12-08-2018 19:27:28 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: Yeah, it helps that basically none of the weapons are actually weapons, but repurposed tools.
12-08-2018 19:27:58 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: Heh.  Warren would have a much easier time if only he had a rifle.
12-08-2018 19:28:11 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: look at how blunt these chisels are!
12-08-2018 19:28:31 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: "Chisel"?
12-08-2018 19:28:43 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: That looks horrible for any kind of chiseling.
12-08-2018 19:28:56 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: the drone's blaster might be supposed to be a weapon?
12-08-2018 19:29:14 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: eh
12-08-2018 19:29:29 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: A weapon which doesn't deal significant damage unless you punch a guy five times first...
12-08-2018 19:29:46 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: point is that he uses them like blades, but they're several inches away from even starting to be sharp, at best.
12-08-2018 19:30:04 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: Yeah.
12-08-2018 19:30:20 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: THAT looks far more effective.
12-08-2018 19:35:36 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: I looked up the game's story, and... yeesh.  Not even a paragraph in, and I see this: "The company that you’re an employee of is trying to fix [the environment] by putting satellites into the atmosphere."
12-08-2018 19:36:05 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: yeah they say that in the opening cutscene :P
12-08-2018 19:37:11 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: I guess it's one of these scifi fetish stories where they throw around concepts and words without actually knowing what they mean.
12-08-2018 19:38:33 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: Tuning out, I gotta leave soon.
12-08-2018 19:38:39 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: (going after biohazard torsos to upgrade my armor)
12-08-2018 19:38:44 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: kay
12-08-2018 19:40:13 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: ...
12-08-2018 19:40:29 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: I clicked on the wrong yellow torso piece >.<
12-08-2018 19:40:51 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: Guess I'd better go chop more dudes in half
12-08-2018 19:43:44 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: So, game plot: "GLOBAL WARMING has destroyed THE WORLD!  We're gonna launch SATELLITES into the ATMOSPHERE, so they can SEED TERRAFORMING CYBORG NANITES, GENOCIDING stupid people and ASCENDING the rest to live in UTOPIA!"
12-08-2018 19:44:20 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: I wouldn't spoil, but... damn it that's so stupid spoiling it is more of a defense from the inevitable facepalm when they try to make that DRAMATIC.
12-08-2018 19:45:35 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: wait, so the sattilites are flooding the atmosphere with nanites that turn people into crazy cyborgs?
12-08-2018 19:47:23 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: Something like that.
12-08-2018 19:47:42 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: ah, hmm
12-08-2018 19:47:44 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: I don't think they've launched the satellites yet, they just seeded their facility first.  Or it escaped.  Or something.
12-08-2018 19:48:18 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: that cyborg that I just sliced an arm off of had a female face, I think. Though she was still making the same zombie grunts
12-08-2018 19:48:46 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: they're already launching the atellites
12-08-2018 19:48:58 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: you see one launch in the opening tram ride
12-08-2018 19:49:21 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: ...obligatory half life tram ride. hmm.

12-08-2018 19:53:04 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: Ah.  Okay then, yeah, they're launching the cyborg murder zombie nanites across the world already then.

12-08-2018 19:53:25 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: And I bet you fix that by hitting the nanites with chisels until they reach 0 HP.

12-08-2018 20:04:44 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: I was frustrated for a moment, because I had a level 0 weapon, and needed tungton alloy mk1 to upgrade it to level 1
12-08-2018 20:05:13 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: and I had a whole stack of tungstun mk2, but none of the enemies dropped the level 1 stuff anymore
12-08-2018 20:05:41 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: but then I realized that I don't need to upgrade thing seqentially, and I could just upgrade it to mk2

12-08-2018 21:09:14 < ER!ER@33-305-828-39.dhcp.ahvl.nc.charter.com: yeah, it's kinda redundant
