I consider this to be a better explanation, but it's a 2-hour long video essay rather than an article.

Working my way through it, but is really good!

Was having it on the side while doing more Cataclysm so not offtopic either :P

Speaking of Cataclysm-BN  though the NPC reading book activity doesn't seem to be working too great, the NPC only gets skill if you see them reading. Working my way to making a camp though which I think will make NPCs more useful by abstracting their work instead of the NPCs actually doing stuff directly.

Talking to an NFTbro is like talking to a cult member. And now they're trying to ruin free open-source games with their bullshit. Christ.

Some months ago the Stalker 2 devs mentionned that they were going to include nft, whatever it was.
They had to back-pedal after their community outrage.   

the game company ubi soft even launched their own nft-filled platform : https://quartz.ubisoft.com/welcome/

Looks like that nft thing is really trying to find its way everywhere in gaming.

Meanwhile in BN...well. See conversation in this PR for the full thing.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

In short, an attempt to hassle a PR over attribution issues was made, quickly backpedaled from "do it one of these two specified ways or don't do it at all" into "the way you mentioned is fine too" after it was pointed out that pushing the original argument would've got both DDA and BN in legal trouble if there was a basis for the original argument. Because the exact thing had been done with multiple PRs porting from BN to DDA.

The initial PR didn't have links to every relevant DDA PR in its OP but that got fixed after the situation was properly clarified, but key point here is that just linking to the source PRs wasn't listed as an option at first, and the initial response to saying "we can't do it the way you just said to do it" was initially only answered with "do it right or not at all"

The best part was Kevin's reaction with the Rocket emoji.  I'm going to assume it means something positive but chuckle at what it might also mean...

Overall, the conversation between people working on "opposing" projects was more civil than I might have expected, so good job to them both on that.

I'm assuming it's positive too, this makes me do the happy.

And I guess yeah, we both kinda still did our usual thing of passive-aggressively shitting on each other, but still. Went better than it usually does whenever we're in the same thread.

It's most likely positive TBH. And really as long as it makes people happy I'm fine with whatever BN does despite not playing it. That is the attitude everyone should have, and unfortunately some people don't. Imagine treating an obscure zombie game more seriously than many treat real life.

Has anyone ever thought of a "Backrooms" total conversion mod for Cataclysm DDA before?

The Backrooms is a place that exists in the space between different Realities. No one knows exactly what conjures up the prerequisite conditions for someone to end up in the Backrooms, but it all starts with being "No-Clipped" out of your local Reality and into the Backrooms.

The Backrooms is composed of many different "Levels" of varying composition and spatial parameters. One level could be a small cabin in a valley, while an entirely different room could just be clouds that span on infinitely.

All levels are filled with strange beings called "Entities" by the various survivors that find themselves in the Backrooms. Some are harmless, some are neutral but respond to hostilities, and most are outright hostile.

I never dabbled with mutagens in cataclysm, but if I'm reading that right, that bottle contains a mixed slurry of 14 different types of mutagen.

What the hell is going to happen if you drink that?

Is that why it costs 1.2M dollars?

Man, I wish I could snag that and just sell it myself. lol
