https://inktober.com/rules And Mantis, thanks for the replies :) I was an artist in my teen years, did some cool stuff that I hope to scan and share one day. Since the mid-90s I've wanted to get into digital painting, with the idea that I might retire and have something interesting to do, such as c...

I'm just about to throw my hand into all this - my family has offered to spring for an iPad Air, so that I can get Procreate to draw/paint, and GarageBand to continue my menacing of society with whacky electronica downbeats and industrial. Will you guys be continuing this daily thing? And if so, how...

My daughter is working on a large piece, 5 foot on the long side. You can see how she develops the layers and designs. I'm tagging this with spoilers because there's frontal nudity - it's basically several succubi , hanging out together. She's pursuing what she's calling a "desecrated religious" the...

Nah US feckin lllllove Israel. They'll be right in there. Wouldn't surprise me if they go into Ukraine to take back supplies to give them to Israel. There's certainly a large contingent over here that loves Israel. I'm not the least bit a part of that, and never have been. All these deaths, because...

There's a bunch of new stuff there I'm interested in actually. They're reintroducing the grenade-cooking talent too, and I've always wanted grenades to be more useful. I was luckily able to recalibrate a piece of chest armor, snatching that grenade-cook talent, so now I can stick it on most any che...

Brendan has always been there, yep,

This guy pretty much nails it - basically says he's enjoying it despite itself and then goes on and lists all the faults with it: That was fun to watch. His delivery is a little odd, like how he spins around and his eyes don't track the camera, kinda like an animatronic Disney/mannequin thing... Bu...

Got past the braindance haha - and I've cleared Watson of almost everything, I think. Selling weapons is a great way to get eddies, thank goodness, because the cyberware stuff is expensive as f. I love not having to think about what gd outfit I'm going to have to wear in order to boost up my armor. ...

I'm concerned that they are saying an SSD drive is a requirement now in order to play on PC. My desktop is six years old now, so I'm not sure if this will actually run

Are we getting Freespace mixed up with Freelancer? I would kill for a modern remake of the Freespace games with VR support. I know they've been modded for 20+ years (my brother used to write for a user-made campaign), but as the X-Wing Alliance upgrades have shown, you really need a modern graphics...

It must be said that it is in "very early access" and who knows how many years before it's fleshed out and not so janky with the 3rd-person stuff. But I'm willing to give it a try because it does do (or promise to do) a lot of things that I'd enjoy in a space-faring game. It's mostly AI-spoken right...

I just bought this based upon a video review of gameplay: https://youtu.be/MdlOG5XjKKY?si=vmWZlnjsHA7JFyTL It's in early access, and created by one person, apparently. I'm downloading now. It seems to have a ton of content and gameplay, and should have more as time goes by. I'm happy to give this de...

I've also come to realise that light sabre duels are just jank. I'm watching the two protagonists and thinking "just slide the 'blade' down", you'll cut their fingers off, easy. "Stop spinning" you're showing your back to the enemy. "Use your force push and pull more" you'll eventually knock them o...

For me it was always going to be the case that I'd play until getting bored, and I feel like I'm getting to that point with fewer than ten hours playtime. I don't think there's any chance of me finishing the main story. The game just feels like it was designed in the 90s. The gameplay is utterly pl...

That's fair, Chris, and I totally get it. I'm not the least bit invested in the character, nor much of the lore. And true enough, most of the Jedi depicted over the decades are more stoic than your average swashbuckling character :) though I would like to see them tease maybe a bit more emotion out ...
