With Ironclad, I really love when you get a good strength build going. Demon Form early game is so cash money

With the Silent, Poison builds are my go to, but if you get a good something going with Shivs in the beginning, it's so much fun.

The Defect, I recently defeated A3 with a channel lightning build - where you channel for every time you get hit. I was channeling, i think 6 every hit and had +4 focus, so when the heart did the 4x12 attack, it destroyed itself. Felt incredible.

I haven't yet figured out a solid strat for The Watcher, but divinity is fun and I enjoy going full wrath, but having enough defense to back that up proves difficult.

In terms of similar games, if I'm feeling a little more casual/braindead, Peglin is a lot of fun with a similar deckbuilding style. I have yet to figure out any really good builds and I think some balls are definitely better than others, but it's still fun and super casual.

Ironclad is so good to rely back on for consistent builds, I feel like. I think I have the most fun with The Silent and The Defect, personally, but Ironclad runs are just so straightforward and there's so many good builds.

Hey all, I'm a Linux baby and just discovered all my Onenote notes for DnD aren't transferable to my new machine 🙃

I've seen a few alternatives, specifically Joplin, mentioned, but what I'm looking for is an editor that lets me move notes all around or type in random places like Onenote. I found Spiral, but it's not my favorite, though it does have what I need so far, if at a very bare and basic level.

Can anyone recommend anything with the 'type anywhere' functionality? I'm not even wholly invested in it being FOSS, but this seemed like the best place to ask. Thanks y'all

I've pulled out an old laptop to try Linux Mint because I'm really over Windows' whole thing and I just need to get my hands on mint before I fully commit. But thanks for the shoutout!

2x22" is what I have already and it fits my desk well and it's not too much, if that makes any sense. I'm going to also look at an ultrawide physically over the weekend and see how it feels, but i like to snap windows to the sides of the screens and I don't know enough about ultrawides to know if you can do that easily, haha

This is based off the "Great tier" AMD build, but I'm waffling a bit on the price. I don't really know a whole lot about PC specs, but I read this is supposed to be a good long-lasting build based on the DDR5 and something newer in the CPU or Video card. That being said, I've only really ever build mid-tier and while I do want something nice, I'm just not sure it's necessary for me? I tend to stick to Indie titles and the most demanding game I've played lately was BG3 (which my current PC has to be on med-low settings to run).

Also, if anyone has a good 22" monitor recommendations I'll take them.

Seconding Darn Tough. My dad is a laborer and has sworn by these socks, and I use them for sports. They do honor their guarantees as well if you do get a hole. My only issue is where the toe seam is can be uncomfortable sometimes, but that's in ski boots, so lots of compression on the toes anyway

Long time 5e DM, switched to 2e about 6 months ago and have been running an AP in that time. However I have come to a spot in the adventure with some wiggle room and I want to homebrew a few side quests and such. However, I'm fairly overwhelmed with the sheer amount of monsters, so what are your go-tos for picking the right one for the job? For 5e I had donjon and aidnd.

Also... Treasures? How do you choose for those? Gatewalkers feels fairly sparse on giving money and magic items or trinkets to the characters, so I'd like to look at a few that might work... Do I just hop on AoN and scroll through everything?

On the one hand, Annapurna seems to know what they're doing - Nimona was fantastic. On the other hand, I think it's going to be hard to make this into a movie. I'm assuming they'll focus on the journey of the cat and the environment around it, but they'll have to fill all of the other space, hopefully with the robots and their personalities.

I picked up Slay the Spire after kinda recently learning about deck building games and how much I apparently love them. Been having a bunch of fun and beat the game for the first time just recently. Now I have to do it with the other characters :3

I can't say if the quality is still the same, but I bought a Chromebook when they first came out for $99 and that little buddy has lasted me a decade now. It's seen me through a deployment, a degree, several moves, and has been through a load of abuse and come out the other side working as spiffy as day one, minus some scuff on the screen. (Unfortunately Google has recently aged it out, but I'll find a use for it with a virtual machine perhaps).

I imagine most little netbooks are similarly built and can withstand a boatload, although their computing power definitely lacks.

New motos are just too big for my baby hands so I got myself an s23 for a steal, but I'm finding that I miss some of the functionality that I used to have, and that some features are just annoying on this phone.

What kind of qol apps do you galaxy-havers use? Specifically are there any that let me use more than just double tap and long press on the power button for quick actions?

Note: I don't know if I can jailbreak it and keep my carrier. I use Google fi so it seems like breaking it would break everything? But I have no idea :3

I was over the moon for a second because of the studio switch. But I goofed and was thinking Supergiant Studios, not Supermassive. Still, Supermassive has some decent hitters under the belt. Hopefully everything goes well.

I agree with the sentiment but not the words, Haha. I work 4x10s and would by far rather work on a Friday than a Monday, although I do switch it up sometims to take advantage of holidays and such. But to each their own, ofc.

I'm currently at this juncture and trying to decide whether to go back to school and start entirely fresh or to hold out for another year or two to see how things go. The anxiety of what the future may or may not hold is real and I'm just standing here, watching the distances shorten faster and faster while still not knowing.

What's your take, Beeple?

I bounce around between three or so.

I feel like I can always find something to do in Beatsaber, whether trying to beat my own scores or trying new modes or new modded songs.

Risk of Rain 2 is also great for mindless entertainment and trying new things.

Distance. It's sort of a racing game but with a story? It gets hard as hell but it's tons of fun and the music is great. It's criminally underplayed in my opinion
