| 00:30.19 | Wormy_ | Game time |
| 00:31.05 | Wormy_ | Hm, NMS or Fallout 4? |
| 00:31.46 | Wormy_ | I really wanna plsay Elite but steep learning curve and I've spent all week learning |
| 00:31.47 | Liquid_Ink | NMS |
| 00:32.00 | Liquid_Ink | I don't know what it is, so I choose that |
| 00:32.09 | Wormy_ | No Man's Sky |
| 00:32.58 | Liquid_Ink | I see |
| 00:33.44 | DrodoEmpire | Play EUIV <.< |
| 00:34.03 | Wormy_ | What's the curve like? |
| 00:34.32 | DrodoEmpire | For Paradox games, not the steepest |
| 00:34.33 | DrodoEmpire | So |
| 00:34.47 | DrodoEmpire | In normiespeak, pretty steep, but keep at it and you'll get it |
| 00:34.59 | Wormy_ | Too much for the moment |
| 00:35.02 | DrodoEmpire | Stellaris might be better for that |
| 00:35.24 | DrodoEmpire | Plus Stellaris doesn't have forty gorillion dollars worth of DLC you need to buy... yet |
| 00:35.30 | Wormy_ | I feel like I'm having to dumb down the curve since I started my masters |
| 00:35.56 | Wormy_ | I play F4 a lot because its shooting at things sort of game |
| 00:36.05 | DrodoEmpire | Rite |
| 00:37.10 | Wormy_ | Hell yeah lets mow down some ghouls with a chainsaw |
| 00:37.47 | Wormy_F4 | boo, updates |
| 00:53.14 | Tek0516 | Wormy_F4: Stellaris also had probably the shallowest learning curve of a Paradox game since it's more 4X. |
| 00:56.19 | Wormy_F4 | cool |
| 00:56.45 | Wormy_F4 | Oh boy, I just got Windows waAnting to update itself. This time I could try later. Is gaming night ruined? |
| 01:09.57 | Tek0516 | If you want Stellaris maybe wait for the patch at the start of April. Will almost certainly be a sale |

| 04:21.47 | DrodoEmpire | Hm |
| 04:22.23 | DrodoEmpire | So one thing I should really consider doing more is writing about the numerous Drodo cultures and ethnicities, and especially about their unique modes of traditional warfare which have been carried through to the modern day |
| 04:22.46 | DrodoEmpire | The only issue is that I dunno how many people would read it.. |
| 04:23.05 | DrodoEmpire | I'm not completely certain how useful it'll be, either |
| 04:27.14 | Liquid_Ink | If you'd enjoy writing it, go for it |

| 16:00.21 | Xho | I'm risiking stagnancy again |
| 16:01.57 | Hachiman | My question is |
| 16:02.06 | Hachiman | What does a half-elf, half-dwarf look like |
| 16:02.09 | Hachiman | Or a half-elf, half-orc |
| 16:02.13 | OluapPlayer | Like a human |
| 16:02.15 | Hachiman | non |
| 16:02.17 | OluapPlayer | to both |
| 16:02.22 | Hachiman | but y |
| 16:02.25 | Hachiman | dat not maek sense |
| 16:02.30 | OluapPlayer | cus half size |
| 16:02.39 | Hachiman | ill fukn half size u half pint |
| 16:02.50 | OluapPlayer | nah m8 get dunked on |
| 16:03.42 | OluapPlayer | It's not easy to tell since half-elves by themselves aren't consistent in appearance |
| 16:03.47 | Hachiman | Elf-orcs get both the superior strength of orckind but also the beauty and charisma of the elves in one physique |
| 16:03.52 | Hachiman | Truly the superior species |
| 16:04.02 | Xho | fukin dreadful |
| 16:04.06 | Monet | ALso lantern jaws |
| 16:04.19 | OluapPlayer | Or they look like massive skinny orcs with pointy ears |
| 16:05.41 | Ghelae | You might get both. Some individuals have the strength of orcs and the beauty and charisma of elves, and some have the strength of elves and the beauty and charisma of orcs. |
| 16:05.55 | Ghelae | The latter are presumably not very happy with the former. |
| 16:06.42 | Imperios | Hm |
| 16:07.02 | Imperios | What terms are used for members of legislatures in English? |
| 16:07.04 | OluapPlayer | Like I said, halfbreeds aren't consistent even among themselves |
| 16:07.32 | Imperios | There's "MP" in Britain, Senator in the US, we call them "deputates" or "deputies" and I belive the same is true of the French national assembly |
| 16:07.50 | Hachiman | I imagine that factors that play into what halfbreeds look like in the Fantasyverse play into the heritages of their respective parents, what species the respective mother and father are, the sex of the child, etc. |
| 16:08.12 | OluapPlayer | Damon looks more human, Clotho looks more elven, and they're siblings |
| 16:08.15 | Hachiman | Same as actual children, really |
| 16:08.42 | Monet | Imperios: In England we have ministers. |
| 16:09.03 | Imperios | not what I am saying, ministers don't normally sit in parliaments |
| 16:09.06 | Hachiman | I mean, I'm darker-skinned than my sister and I also have brown curly hair while she's very pale and light-skinned with blonde straight hair |
| 16:09.08 | Imperios | The UK is an exception I believe |
| 16:09.21 | Monet | It is |
| 16:09.32 | Hachiman | It's not too absurd for Clotho and Damon to look wildly different from one another in some areas |
| 16:09.52 | Monet | Although department heads here in the IK are also called ministers because what are called departments in the US are called ministries over here |
| 16:10.45 | Monet | SO from what I can tell, the name for a legislator depends on what a government calls it's branches. |

| 18:20.51 | Xho | Imperios OluapPlayer: http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/spore/images/3/34/FantasyverseAlignmentChart.png/revision/latest?cb=20170318182023 Did an alignment chart for Fantasyverse characters |
| 18:20.55 | Xho | Well only mine are on it atm |
| 18:22.22 | Wormy_away | lots of professionals have weird interests and hobbies, some less public than others, I don't see what cosplaying has to do with it, unless it is revealed that she slacked. But that's a horrible thing to presume and I despise this kind of trial on the internet |
| 18:24.46 | Wormy_away | It does seem thar the facial animation is appalling for such a large and expensive title |
| 18:25.03 | Wormy_away | a lot of it might be glitches though |
| 18:25.54 | Wormy_away | A lot of the reviews are also pretty damn shite, I have no reason to defend Me4 after ragequitting Mass Effect possibly for good, but there's a lot of caution to be had |
| 18:27.10 | Jepardi | Honestly people are way too focused on the facial (and other) animations while the gameplay seems to actually really solid |
| 18:28.10 | Wormy_away | People criticised a lot of things without seeing a great deal of the game. Seems to be rather quite cynical. |
| 18:28.48 | Monet | Reviewers like RPS and PC Gamer were looking at pre-release review copies, which is where a lot of the recent information has come from. |
| 18:29.33 | Jepardi | Well there is the Origin Access trials that people have been playing |
| 18:30.13 | Jepardi | And it is supposed to be the finished version |
| 18:30.27 | Monet | There's that as well |
| 18:31.52 | Jepardi | Personally I don't care at all if the animations are shoddy as long as the game is otherwise good |
| 18:33.05 | Xho | I would be inclined to agree but it is a retrograde step from previous ME games |
| 18:35.50 | Jepardi | In my opinion ME has never really had any really great animation in them, but I do have to agree that when comparing the animations of human characters in the original trilogy and Andromeda, those in MEA seem way more lifeless |
| 18:38.02 | Wormy_away | ^ |
| 18:38.37 | dino82_ | hi |
| 18:39.14 | Wormy_away | I guess what ticks me off is that Mass Effect 1 wasn't all that great at first glance, but the game picks up and gave an experience many are fond of |
| 18:40.22 | Wormy_away | People are quick to join the hate train as quickly as they join the hype train |
| 18:41.17 | Wormy_away | I might be wrong, ME4 might not deliver but damn I don't think its being given a chance and and not all of that criticism is good. |
| 18:41.31 | Wormy_away | *and not even |
| 18:41.54 | Technobliterator | I don't expect it to be as good as 2, but it may have redeeming qualities |
| 18:43.54 | Wormy_away | Despite being pulled into ME1's story I found the game clunky as hell, having to replay the same dialogue over and over, having my team not responding to my tactics, ending up in levels I wasn't prepared fore unwittingly. But i expect ME2 was better |
| 18:44.22 | Technobliterator | ME1's gameplay was horrible, yep |
| 18:44.25 | Technobliterator | the story was fantastic though |
| 18:44.27 | Wormy_away | I also give it some slack for being old |
| 18:44.31 | OluapPlayer | Pfft, hardly |
| 18:44.39 | OluapPlayer | ME1 had the best shotgun gameplay in the series |
| 18:44.50 | OluapPlayer | BANG, dead, BANG, dead |
| 18:45.32 | Technobliterator | heh |
| 18:45.33 | Technobliterator | bbl |
| 18:45.46 | Monet | It might be ME1 gets some slack for being the first in the series. |
| 18:45.52 | OluapPlayer | My PC's age is catching up to it though |
| 18:46.01 | OluapPlayer | Playing Nier Automata at a whooping 20 fps |

| 18:53.17 | OluapPlayer | Xho: Never seen an alignment chart like that so points for originality |
| 18:55.11 | Xho | yuy |
| 18:55.43 | Xho | tbh I thought that was the standard way of doing it |
| 18:56.27 | OluapPlayer | The standard is 9 demotivationals all 2006-like |
| 18:56.38 | Monet | For spectrums like these, it is. |
| 18:57.10 | OluapPlayer | I've seen graphs like this before, but never for any context that was not maths-related |
| 18:57.34 | Monet | I have |
| 18:57.43 | OluapPlayer | we parabolas now |

| 18:59.27 | OluapPlayer | that's not what I meant and you know it |
| 19:00.34 | OluapPlayer | I mean graphs with grids and dots |
| 19:00.47 | Monet | Same thing |
| 19:01.03 | Monet | This isn't -as- accurate but the principle is identical. |
| 19:02.02 | Xho | That was probably the one I saw |
| 19:27.41 | Monet | https://retrorpg.files.wordpress.com/2011/03/alignment-chart.jpg there's this as well but again same principle. |

| 23:20.33 | Xho | Wearing doesn't necessarily matter since this fortress is magically protected |
