I actually agree, that could be pretty fun. That said this puts a lot of work / pressure on the DM so it is definitely something to be discussed rather than used to be lazy. (To be clear, I am not reading this into what you said. Just saying it out loud is all)

Remember when they promised a modding API? I sure do.

This is funny, but I think stereotypical vampire lore still stands. I think it's only direct sunlight that is an issue. If a vampire stands in a room with an open window, but off to the side, they're generally considered fine. If light reflected off a wall is ok then why is the moon not?

I think Valve banning him in this case is reasonable. It's an invite only free to play game. That said, clicking ok on some random text box is not a binding contract. Companies like to frame it like it is, but it's not.

I really really like this game, but is it ready for 1.0? Last I played a few months ago the simulation felt...lacking. The structure seems there, but things like NPCs walking around their apartments at all hours of the night make things difficult, as an example.

It does still work, and my gut says it's going to work for a long time. Unless they majorly re-kajigger the way windows works in future versions

Why is Pittsburgh the place to be for furries? I dunno, but I think it's great!

DO most employers want to get this right? Based on the fact that wage theft is the largest form of theft even with everything else combined, I think that's either a lie or a stupid thing to say.

Also, I just don't understand under what circumstances anyone should be exempt from overtime. Is there some group of people who are less deserving of getting paid for their time that I am unaware of? Even (shudder) managers should probably get paid.

Is this game still a mess? I really hope it gets fixed up at some point.

I believe this does not work for Home. You can bypass it in Pro like this though. Unless something has changed I am not aware of.

Just finished The Sunlit Man by Sanderson, and The Book of the Ice trilogy by Mark Lawrence before that. Trying to decide on what's next.

A Gnome Artificer who was mute. It was interesting to use only visual langauge to communicate with people. I had a "system" where I could use the magic items / features you get from Gnome and Artificer to talk if I decided I really needed to, but I tried to limit that both for in universe reasons, and meta reasons. Kinda defeats the purpose if you can just magic your way out of it. The idea was that she was cursed by a fey creature, and could cheat a little bit with magic, but eventually the curse would hurt too much to talk more than a little. Eventually I started to feel like the trope of Nynaeve from The Wheel of Time, only replace hair pulling with glares and knowing smiles etc.
