... so like a smaller scale addventure*? I could dig it. Probably not participate, but it'd be interesting to watch

Bombs would give you a lot of dakka

Ad got me to notice that... apparently Final Fantasy XI got a new expansion pack released...

... this year. Over a decade after the game first came out. I find myself surprised there's still a equine corpse left to beat after all this time

Yeah... biased history is kinda' more or less all we actually have. Few hundred years of working at it in a formal manner and we still haven't really figured out how to get bias out of history.

We do try a lot harder nowadays, though. Which is an improvement! But unbiased history is still a bit of an oxymoron. And we get a lot of good work on the more practical screw-up prevention front from the biased stuff, so saying it's useless for that is kinda' silly.

Atronach just makes things annoying to play with this mod list. Not even necessarily harder -- alchemy created potion chugging mostly ends mana issues, just at the cost of UI annoyance. Doesn't really increase suffering, just increases key presses. The rest was fine.

Seriously, the playability increase from passive mana regen is simply frakking tremendous. Y'wanna torment yourself, fine, but something for show should probably give a nod toward making things more rather than less interesting. And Atronach is more clumsy, more annoying, and a fairly massive downgrade from... any of the other signs. S'not really fun to watch or play, compared to the other choices.

S'different in base Morrowind. Atronach's not much worse than normal, in that, and only slightly more clumsy to use. Dis innit base Morrowind, yeah.

All right.  Do you know of any trans female main characters outside of dating games?  I don't. 

I'm fairly certain there's been a couple of text-based ones along those lines. I mean, like one or two. Then a single-digit amount of experimental stuff related to it. From what I remember at least one or two of them were pretty specifically done by the MtF trans game developer whose name I've forgotten. One of her games was that female-protagonist upward scrolling jumpy thingy from a few years back. Pretty damn rare stuff, though.

Eesh. Y'all poor folks. Worst the caf at th'place I did the bachelors at was somehow fuck up rice. Which is one of those things I still can't figure out. How the hell do you make rice that tastes worse than microwaved rice? And like, bad brands for it (some can microwave decently. We're talking the ones that can't.).

Rice is one of those foods that are just incredibly difficult to mess up. Put rice in boiling water. Reduce heat. Wait. Done. This isn't rocket science or arcane alchemy. And yet somehow, some way, they buggered it up. Boggles the goddamn mind.

Everything else (that I ate, anyway) was pretty alright. Even the themed days. Lucky me, I guess. Helped that if you got it to go you could usually stuff in enough food to feed you for an extra day or so.
