Any recommendations on Starwolves Series?
Haven't played 'em much, but I have played 1 & 2, and I can say they're pretty neat. Biggest issue with 'em, iirc, is they're kinda' unstable, so crashes and whatnot are a distinct possibility. Still, if you can get 'em for cheap I'd personally call it worth giving them a shot. They're fairly unique, in a good way.

Sweet zeus that's a helluva' necro. Over two years, yikes.

Uh, that said, yeah, game is still great. Zeno seems to be working primarily on other projects at the moment, particularly a commercial version of HyperRogue, one of his other games. Looks like they're also working to make ADOM (the old one, apparently) ready for steam, which is pretty interesting. Basically just busy with other stuff, hence less attention to VoI.

*shrugs* It's basically a young adult novel. Think something like the old goosebumps stuff, just a little more mature and anime.

Spoiler: Shaders are fun~ (click to show/hide)
... man, it's been like 10-15 years since I've seen something like that, I think.

Are you an old warez group, magma?

Proving yet again people really will eat just about anything when marketed right.

Why did this happen? What kind of cruel god would create a universe where things like this happen?
Whatever kind it is, it's an old one. There's times in human history people did that for fun, never mind bets and whatnot.

Admittedly because they were filtering psychoactives through their kidneys or something along those lines, but still. We're talking old, old precedent here, and not even getting into the people that, uh. Are in to that.

... watching a playthrough of la-mulana's, uh. Bonus content?

Just saw the punchline. It... it was beautiful. Won't say more because spoilers, but. Yeah.

Yet some people refuse to admit it's happening, or don't think it's caused by humans. Even if it's not 100% caused by humans, we are still driving a large part of it. There aren't enough volcanic eruptions to explain the rise of CO2 since industrialization began if it wasn't caused by humans.
... are they still doing the volcano thing? That's, just... just. So trivially discountable? Last I checked the numbers, anyway. Think it came out to something like every year of human output for the last while has matched the totality of somewhere around a few (several? Dozen?) centuries of volcanic CO2 output. It's something ridiculous like that :-\

Generic harem antics seem better than the sisterfucking trend.
... that's the thing, though. They're very often combined, remember?

... actually, the annoying bit about them is a great deal of them actually have incredibly interesting settings -- or at least the strong potential for them -- that get shat upon, to various degrees, by the poorly handled harem plot. Sidelined, not investigated, chunks of it tossed out in favor of harem antic #Y, etc. It's occasionally frustrating.

There is no situation imaginable where the world is better off with you gone, and in no way will you be better off gone either.
This is flat fucking wrong, as various euthanasia and life imprisonment/execution cases should make incredibly bloody clear.

Particularly with the latter, I continue to maintain that with incredibly rare exception anyone that holds that as true has never actually felt substantial and sustained pain before, among other things. There are lives not worth living, and saying otherwise is doing an incredible freaking disservice to the people that live them, for however long they do.

... that said, for someone still in high school and not inflicted with something chronic, incurable, and incredibly crippling, definitely wait another decade or so before doing anything permanent (and yeah, I'm entirely aware how long that sounds to someone in the situation given). With the hormone muckery and personal/social instability that's going to be a fairly prominent feature of the next several years, you're not going to be in a good position to really decide whether it's something you genuinely want to do, as opposed to simply your brain and environment screwing itself. So... give it some more time. Things'll change, and then the situation can be reevaluated.

I didn't think so...

... that said, the answer to your question of there being translations for the LNs is a fairly solid "No", space. Since the LNs themselves don't exist to begin with :P

Am I literally the only person who enjoyed school?
College was nice, once I was done with the general education stuff (the bit of college before that was basically high school with less jackasses and a better schedule). Everything before that point was basically shit stacked upon shit, barring a short period during the last half of my last year of high school where I ended up my own and only teacher. And the gifted/challenge stuff, occasionally, I guess.

We've got rugby. It's just that only like two people play it. The rest of the teams are filled out by those bucket-mop manikins glued to tiny wagons and strapped to the living players with ropes.
