One of my favorite games, Guild Wars 2, thought a lot about this when designing the Charr. A neat blog post from the artist talks about the female design down a bit

I have absolutely no evidence of this, but my first thought was "I wonder if this is some protest at how fucking dumb this all is"

They look cool, but I am kind of disappointed about how expensive they are for plastic mugs. I also have a bit of a pet peeve about established companies using Kickstarter. But I like Ghost Ship so not too much shade.

It varies by location. The one near my house can hardly be bothered to fill the cup. One like an hour away I used to go to for work fills half the freaking bag.

I mean have you SEEN Astarion? I'm not straight enough to say no to that!

Pricing is definitely GPD's issue, but yes hardware issues as well. I have a Win Max 2, and it was neat at the time, but it costs way more than a Steamdeck and really isn't as powerful. When you play a game on it it runs so hot and the fans are like a jet engine. I pretty much use it as tiny laptop these days and use the Steamdeck for any real handheld gaming.

As someone who is super into Guild Wars, what is this AN thing?

Hey all you goth gamers out there

I'm really hoping that this was done in a way that lets someone just mod it back in trivially or something.

Also obligatory fuck nintendo. For so many reasons, including this.

Sadly this is probably impossible at this point. Before their whole fiasco discontinuing the desktop app there was a procedure I did where I was able to download a super old version of the desktop app and use Chrome to get into the dev interface (or something like that) of the app, then use a script someone made to export everything. Maybe if you search around you can find some way to do this with the mobile app, but I am not optimistic.

One of my favorite things about the long Sanderson books is that even though they are SO LONG, they are paced so well that I never felt like it was too long. All the building up in the middle is important and enjoyable (at least to me), and it all wraps up so quickly and nicely at the end of every book.

My re-read for Stormlight Archive has been taking longer than I figured it would, so I just started Rhythm of War this morning. I even got Wind and Truth delivered a day early, but didn't get to start it lol.
