Bay 12 Games Forum

I'm ambivalent, leaning towards not liking it. Though I only glanced through the thread.

When I was first playing getting to my first season change as a newbie I considered a major accomplishment and was motivation to keep playing.  At 91 day seasons I could see newbie me considering it an unreachable goal, even now as a player that knows what they are doing I rarely get 90 days in before I get bored run out of serious threats and feel there is nothing further to gain from the run.  I also see it as less likely anyone will want to experiment with animals or plants, as they likely take significantly longer to yield returns.  If I understand correctly construction speed is also tied to season length?  I can't see constructions taking longer than they already do and still being bothered with, but I may be misinformed there.  It sounds like quite a few systems in the game would be made too long term to ever want to deal with by multiplying the investment time by something like 6.

On the other hand it is probably easier to code for real season lengths, and finding and crafting winter/summer gear will be more worth the trouble, foraging seasonal trees and berries would be more worth the investment at least in your current season, and it may open the way for seasonal zombies and animals, which would otherwise not be around long enough to ever bother with.  That could even solve the 90 day boredom if new threats or goals could be introduced seasonally.

Again, leaning against, but not enough to start screaming bloody murder as we are wont here.  Feel free to correct me if any of my thoughts are misinformed.

I think your link is broken.  https://www.warframe.com/news/looking-for-some-extra-credit  I think is what yer looking for.  Though it's such a short article your info actually says more than it does.

I did not even know there was a storm nearby until it started raining inside the store when the door opened and a customer mentioned it.  I should probably pay attention to the news.

Someone drove into the store's parking lot yesterday and hit a roughly 3 or 4 foot tall, bright yellow painted stationary object fast enough to damage the car.  Today, according to risk management, they apparently want to sue.

Admittedly that object was a shopping cart, in the parking lot and from all appearances it has somehow found itself in the driving lane of the lot.  But everything in that first sentence is the truth as well (though I am suddenly stumped as to the height of the things).   Somebody recently wanted to sue the store for >almost< slipping last month next to a wet floor sign too.   Why is everyone sue happy lately?

Cecil of night vale?  I would rather have him than Morgan Freeeman honestly.  That guy can make anything sound creepy.

My beard is also because I'm too lazy to shave.   Though apparently I'm lucky, I just use the same shampoo on it I use on my hair and run a comb through it now and then and apparently it looks great. Additionally because I only bother to get a haircut about once a year I'm told I look like any number of old classic rock stars by my customers at work. 

Apparently I look like someone from Slayer.  I saw his picture and it looks accurate, but I don't know his name.

Doesn't pet treats have all the health and processing requirements of human food?  I guess maybe you can use cheaper ingredients while still charging the same amount, but I never understood the reasoning why folks would produce pet food over human food when all the sanitation requirements are identical, seems like you'd have a bigger market making people food.  Then again I'm no economist, so I may be very wrong.

Stepped in magma by mistake during the rematch with Magma Dragoon.  At least I did succeed in killing him with my ride armor in the first fight, so I got the achievement.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Mega Man X4, which should be abundantly clear to anyone who's played it.

Killing magma dragoon with the ride armor is an ACHIEVEMENT now?  Back when I was a teenager I couldn't beat Magma Dragoon without the ride armor.  I would always go for him first because he was the only one I could consistently beat without a power thanks to being able to bring a giant mech into the boss room.  I actually thought him showing up in the prologue was a hint to indicate that you should go for him first.

Yes I am very bad at megaman games.
