2023.05.31 19:19 the_direful_spring Branching levelling idea for Vampires
So I'm thinking of making an RPG that'll take a fair bit of inspiration from things like the story teller system with VtM and the like. But for the vampires I'm considering have the powers most easily accessible to them tied less to things like clans and more that they will open up based on the character's actions.
I only have the bare bones to the concept worked out so far but this is roughly what I'm thinking. Vampires who are newly turned start out still relatively human in many regards but over time they both become less human and more powerful, depending on how they act the specifics will vary. All characters will be able to get standard XP points by training, studying and overcoming challenges, and any character will be able to invest XP into acquiring extra dice in different skills. But for vampire characters there will also be two alternative pools they will begin to acquire over time. In both cases the player should keep track of the total number of points they have earned in this skill as well as any unspent points. Reaching certain thresholds has specific upsides and downsides as well as unlocking the ability to spend points in certain abilities of the player's choice.
The basic bones of the idea are that there will be the path of haste and the path of restraint. The path of haste represents a steady movement towards a more bestial vampire. You get points in that direction in for drinking blood in excess of their max blood pool or maybe burning through a large amount of blood in a single day (maybe something like more than 2/3 the pool, a detail I'll have to determine at a later date, the blood pool would be basically a resource that keeps you alive, lets you heal and can be spent to power supernatural abilities), it should be a path that's easier to progress down quickly if you're doing it intentionally and even accidently slip into over time. Going up through the tiers you get more HP, more points of soak and a very large blood pool. The kinds of abilities you can spend points in would be typically focused more towards physical abilities. Things that allow you to permanently or temporarily increase physical stats and let you morph yourself to have bestial features, claws, eyes of animals with good night vision, more sharp teeth, wings etc. More dramatic transformations becoming more possible at higher levels. Any mental abilities might perhaps be focused on things like control over animals and are less emphasised. Downs sides are more dramatic though with a lot of penalties regarding social checks and eventually other abstract thinking stuff as your body and mind becomes less and less human. You'd also need a larger amount of blood to remain alive. You become a hunter that is a beast in combat and may remain cunning but is driven heavily by impulsive desires for feasting on blood.
Other path would be the path of restraint. You'd probably have to invest more time to go down this one, things like going longer periods while drinking no more than absolutely necessary allow you to slowly advance down this path. It still increases things like the soak value over time but things like wounds and blood pool would progress slowly and would not real the heights a hunter vampire could. The main abilities it brings would be things like a steadily improved ability to do hypnotism in various ways and different kinds of blood powered magic that would include some traditional vampire abilities like turning into mist as well as things like necromantic abilities and other occult powers. You remain less of a beast but they have a tendency towards a reduced ability for things like guilt and conscience over time, able to understand moral ideas but less likely to actually feel bad if they do something evil than they would have when they were human. A lot of these end up as the kind of aristocratic vampire quietly pulling strings from the shadows type of thing.
In both cases progressing along either track might also increase the character's susceptibility to things like sunlight that are vampire specific weaknesses. The increased soak in each case would represent the vampire's organs rearranging themselves to reflect a semi-supernatural vampire anatomy. Such that going down either path steadily makes makes it harder to kill you by conventional means.
I'm debating how to progress handing characters that might wish to progress a little of both, I think maxing out both ends should probably be impossible but I don't know if I should simply have it so that I cut off the progression of the other track once you've got a certain far up one path or so that its a scale with a neutral point in the middle and going down the path of haste is like a negative is like a positive such that it is impossible to progress both at once to any degree, you just have the starting more neutral abilities and then you get the advanced versions of those abilities as options depending on which track you go down.

2023.05.31 19:19 IRBasementcat This post is directed at Niantic and is a call for ACTION.
Hi fellow pogo'ers and Niantic,
The past 8-10 months all gyms in our city have been Red or Gray. Every attempt of Blue or Yellow to take over a gym has success for <5 minutes or duration of raid egg if you defeat it just before the raid egg timer expires + <5 minutes.
City: Steenwijk, The Netherlands (25k citizens)
Long story short: We have a spoofehacker with 1+ accounts actively kicking out team Blue and Yellow out of our cities gyms and placing himself in all of them until the max gym count has been reached leaving the rest gray. His main account is level 49! We have reported him as a community so incredibly often that it makes 0% sense that this player still has access to his account and/or that this spoofer tool has been taken care of by the algorithms of Niantic.
Many in our community have quit the game because of the inaction of Niantic and we are wondering if we can take any form of legal action against Niantic since they are adding more and more features that rely on getting in-game currency and with their inaction to prevent/act upon this matter they are not offering equal rights/chances to the player base to get in-game currency via their gym-mechanic. Thus forcing teams Blue and Yellow to spend real money and giving team Red all the benefits that the other teams can't receive. Therefore creating a big imbalance and frustration in our city's player base. Probably we can't and we probably won't be compensated for the money we were almost forced to spend to get the same advantages and perks team Red has over us due to this situation.
You can imagine that this has led to mass migration to team Red in our city since that is the only way to get 50 coins a day. The biggest joke is, that takes 1000 coins to do so (equals 10€). Luckily some of us refuse to pay and some of us can't pay at all.
Niantic is providing/supporting the spoofehacker with all the liberties and benefits the game offers and refuses to acknowledge the existence of the rest of the player base in our city. Niantic is deliberately not acting upon this situation even though we have reported this situation as a whole 200+ times (that's a low estimation) over the last 8-10 months.
Really hope this post gets some traction since we love the game. The actions of 1 person and the inaction of a company called Niantic for the 8-10 months have really destroyed our community which was a really vibrant one.
Niantic, PLEASE, show that you care about ALL your players. Not just the ones that spoof/hack.

2023.05.31 19:18 uncle-jok At some point, do we get tired of the rage baiting from ESPN?
I am getting pretty tired of posts about ESPN on this sub. As Obi Wan once said, “Who’s more foolish? The fool or the fool who follows him?”
I get the it’s frustrating that ESPN and similar networks seem to be talking about things other than the Nuggets. It would be nice if they seemed to feel and want to share the joy that we have in the Nuggets as a team, as players, and as people. But I’m tiring of seeing so many angry/rage-baiting posts about Stephen A said this, Perk said that, etc. If they were the only analysts on Earth it would be one thing. But we have so much quality basketball news and analysis out there. DNVR, Locked On Nuggets, Thinking Basketball, and many more provide quality analysis and entertainment. There have been posts about/from these outlets, but it seems like ESPN anger gets more attention than the high quality basketball conversations do. Can we do better and try to not be the fools who follow the fools who spout bad takes for rage clicks?
We may as well be happy the boys are in the Finals and let go of hell.

2023.05.31 19:18 Ajido Lightning Spear/Crackling Energy Question
"Summoned Lightning Spear" says 'Collecting Crackling Energy increases the damage of your next Lightning Spear cast by 20%, up to 100%'.
If you use the Lightning Spear enchantment where 'Absorbing Crackling Energy has a 10% chance to conjure a Lightning Spear', does the passive skill benefit these Lightning Spears that are conjured, or only the one cast by the player?
I was inclined to think it only benefits when the player casts, but could be wrong and figured I'd ask here.

2023.05.31 19:16 SF_Sharpkills Gaming in Movies and Television: Bridging the Gap Between Virtual and Reel Worlds
 | Gaming has become a dominant force in popular culture, and its influence has expanded beyond the gaming console. In this blog post, we'll explore the significant impact of gaming on the silver screen and television. From successful adaptations of video game franchises to the integration of gaming culture in popular TV shows, we'll uncover how gaming has seamlessly transitioned into the realm of movies and television, captivating audiences and bridging the gap between virtual and reel worlds. submitted by SF_Sharpkills to videogames [link] [comments] Video Game Franchises on the Big Screen: The world of gaming has provided fertile ground for movie adaptations, allowing audiences to experience their favorite video game franchises in a new dimension. The Resident Evil series, based on survival horror games, has garnered a loyal fan base with its action-packed storytelling and iconic protagonist, Alice. The Tomb Raider franchise has also made a successful transition to film, bringing the daring archaeologist Lara Croft to life in thrilling adventures that mirror the excitement of the games. And let's not forget the grand fantasy world of Warcraft, which mesmerized both gamers and moviegoers alike, showcasing the potential of epic storytelling in the realm of video game adaptations. Gaming Culture in Television Shows: Television shows have also embraced gaming culture, integrating references, themes, and even entire episodes dedicated to gaming. Netflix's hit series, Stranger Things, captured the hearts of audiences with its nostalgic '80s setting, and gaming played a central role in the lives of the main characters. From the iconic Dungeons & Dragons sessions to arcade gaming, Stranger Things skillfully weaves gaming into its narrative, resonating with both gamers and non-gamers alike. Similarly, Black Mirror, known for its exploration of technology's impact on society, has dedicated episodes to the world of gaming. Episodes like "Playtest" and "Striking Vipers" delve into the psychological and ethical implications of immersive gaming experiences, offering thought-provoking commentary on the relationship between humans and technology. The Power of Cross-Media Promotion: The synergy between gaming, movies, and television is further amplified through cross-media promotion. Successful video game releases often coincide with movie premieres or TV show launches, creating a buzz and fostering a sense of anticipation among fans. This strategic collaboration allows fans to immerse themselves in their favorite gaming universes across multiple platforms, deepening their connection to the characters and stories they love. It also expands the reach of gaming, introducing new players to the virtual worlds they may have first encountered through movies or TV shows. Pushing Boundaries and Breaking Stereotypes: The integration of gaming in movies and television has not only entertained audiences but has also challenged stereotypes and pushed creative boundaries. As video game adaptations become more prevalent, filmmakers and showrunners are recognizing the importance of staying true to the source material while bringing fresh perspectives to the screen. Strong and complex female characters, like Lara Croft, have shattered traditional gender roles, showcasing the power of representation and inclusivity in both gaming and film. Furthermore, the inclusion of gaming culture in TV shows has elevated the medium, proving that gaming can be a rich source of storytelling, emotion, and societal commentary. Gaming's influence on movies and television has grown exponentially, transforming virtual experiences into captivating narratives on the silver screen and television. From successful adaptations of video game franchises to the integration of gaming culture in popular TV shows, the bridge between the virtual and reel worlds has been firmly established. As gaming continues to evolve and captivate audiences, we can expect even more exciting crossovers, creative storytelling, and thought-provoking explorations of gaming's impact on our lives. So, whether you're a gamer, a movie enthusiast, or a television binge-watcher, the convergence of gaming, movies, and television offers a captivating and immersive experience that blurs the line between virtual and reel worlds. Embrace the exciting possibilities that lie ahead as gaming's influence continues to shape the movies and television shows we love. Happy Gaming!

2023.05.31 19:15 BananaHase030 Ranking up as a Solo Laner feels impossible since last patch
I wanna get some more opinions on this because before 4.2 even if your ADC was bad you could at least win if you as a top laner were doing well and your mid or jungler were good as well. But I swear ever since the last patch games for me have been a complete dice roll, either my adc is feeding like they are playing blindfolded or my adc is playing like the life of their entire family is depending on them winning and no matter how everyone else was doing in the game if botlane does well that team wins. I'm genuinely not sure if I enjoy playing this game anymore cause it feels like I'm barely making a difference in my games anymore. I had a game today where my Sion got counter picked against fiora and went 2/10 and literally everyone on my team besides our Samira and Nautilus were doing about the same but it just did not matter because she was 17/1 and was basically killing everyone in like 3 seconds and ended the game in 17 minutes. I don't know what to do at this point because I really want to keep playing and ranking up but I don't want to invest the time in to learn how to play as an ADC because I'm exclusively a solo lane player or occasionally jungle.

2023.05.31 19:15 PeachFlavouredJuice Enemy density isn't the issue in Salvage, It's spawns, map design and AOE perks.
A lot of you aren't going to like this, but fact of the matter is, AOE perks, especially on special weapons are too powerful.
There is a great way to see this for yourself by playing Salvage, especially last week's Salvage mission.
The first stages are played on a large open map with corner spawns that don't really get in the midst of it, players can easily chain Voltshot, Incandesent etc. on these spawns and effectively exterminate any enemy within the seconds of it's spawn.
Enter last stage of last week's Salvage, an arena riddled with obstacles and walls that easily obstruct your AOE perks but arguably less enemies than former stages, suddenly the arena feels way more populated right?
Well there you have it, if you're unable to insta blast everything in your field of view, suddenly there's way more things to shoot at isn't there?
Point being, it's not the enemy density, it's the spawns and AOE perks primarily.
Now the question is, should Bungie design activity levels with AOE perks in mind or should they be tuned to levels of dragonfly thus reducing their effectiveness?
I am personally for the latter option as I remember Reckoning, a gamemode tailor made for the meta options.

2023.05.31 19:15 jamesisagal Accidentally become groupies for senior ladies softball!
A month ago maybe NK(G2) and I were walking to the park when we saw a group of people playing softball. Turns out we had stumbled upon the opening day of the Senior Woman’s Slopitch League. NK LOVED IT. She thought it was hilarious everyone running around and throwing the ball. And of course everyone loved her. There weren’t too many spectators that weren’t somehow involved in the league. One organizer had a paper with their schedule and handed it over and today was the 5th week of us watching baseball. Many of the players know us by name and they always high-five NK after making it to home plate. One player brought popsicles to the game today and offered not only NK one but me one too. I saw another player at the grocery store when I wasn’t working and she recognized me and said hello. I’m a college kid and often don’t feel super connected to the community in my college town but this has been such a serendipitous source of joy for me! NK has started talking about it the rest of the week and many of our characters in her stuffed animal games are named Gladys and Carol and Gertie after her new friends!

2023.05.31 19:15 MaximumSubstance7016 37M 28F is it worth staying together?
l've been dating this person for 7 years. We live in a house with our pets and have a really fun time together. He lights up me and my family's life. He comes from a broken family while I come from the opposite. On the outside we look perfect but we are going through our worst fight right now.
Love this person but discussing marriage stresses them out. I've mentioned over the vears how this a huge dealbreaker for me by year 10. I'm starting to realize maybe nothing will change and it'll be the same battle in 2-3 years?
When I bring up my feelings about our relationship like maybe he's been busy, or on his phone a lot and I'm asking for attention this person shuts down and will stonewall me for however long they want. As a communicator, it drives me insane.
If I bring up an issue in the car the stonewalling is sometimes dangerous while driving, they won't listen to maps navigation or get out of the car or open the front door for me.
This person does not initiate sex.
Their friends and family have all rubbed me the wrong way. Mostly stupid comments that I look for my partner to back me up but he's never there to witness or hear them. I started dating this person in my early 20's (they are older by 10 years and I'm their first partner. Ever.) and I confess, maybe im too emotional or need to learn to let things roll off my back but the scars are still there towards these people and my person is telling me that I don't get a long with his people. I find this to be hurtful.
Im realizing I might be a perfectionist or maybe OCD. I feel like everything my person does it's wrong. Whether it's cleaning, they sometimes put their feet up on the couch with outside shoes on? They are clumsy and loud sometimes. They love to eat out.
I'm slowly realizing I may be the complete opposite of this person. This person naturally feels like they can't do anything right which I can understand.
The bottom line is I'm starting to notice effects on my health by how stressed out this person makes me. It's showing up in my skin and is really affecting me. The problem is we care so much but we're on a day to dav basis while I sleep uncomfortably in another room.
When you have undeniable loyalty, humor, and love for another, is it worth throwing it all away??

Im realizing I might be a perfectionist or maybe OCD. I feel like everything my person does it's wrong. Whether it's cleaning, they sometimes put their feet up on the couch with outside shoes on? They are clumsy and loud sometimes. They love to eat out.
I'm slowly realizing I may be the complete opposite of this person. This person naturally feels like they can't do anything right which I can understand.
The bottom line is I'm starting to notice effects on my health by how stressed out this person makes me. It's showing up in my skin and is really affecting me. The problem is we care so much but we're on a day to dav basis while I sleep uncomfortably in another room.
When you have undeniable loyalty, humor, and love for another, is it worth throwing it all away??
2023.05.31 19:14 Wrenfly Help me stat a Cart pulled by a Giant Goat!
New GM moving over from 5e, I can't believe there's no stats for goats in PF2! (unless I'm missing something?)
There's a meme in my DnD group about the Goat Penalty (because I'm lowkey obsessed with goats whenever I have the chance to introduce one in the story, via wildshape or statuette). My DM for that game is one of my players, and both groups are all the same people. So I thought it would be hilarious if the party for my PF2 was rewarded with a basic cart vehicle pulled by a massive goat.
Details: The party is level 2, we're all new to PF2 so I'm running them through some farm chores as they start to explore the world. They'll be helping out a young farmer who will reward them with a cart and her weirdly large goat if they can help her with the goblins stealing her crops (as well as some other odd jobs around the farm).
Cart needs to accomodate 3 people, so 1 pilot and 2 squished in passengers (Champion in the party, so he'll get his own mount soon). I was thinking the cart would have a capacity of 50 bulk? As for the goat, medium (pony) sized, but with a large pulling capacity? So maybe 500 pounds?
Not sure how else to stat this (Goat AC, speed, climbing ability?) so please give me some pointers Q.Q

2023.05.31 19:14 No_Incident4004 Why cant some physical specimen like AD or Bam ABUSE jokic? Please someone explain this to a basketball beginner.
Jokic is arguably the worst Player in the NBA in terms off athletic ability. He is slow, he has no vertical, he is tired fast, he isnt physically strong like embiid, Bam etc
I would argue that in the last 15 Years there wasnt a Player with worse athletic ability then Jokic, i can go to a D3 College and i will find Centers that are physically more capable then him.
Now my question, why is Jokic unstoppable? Why doesnt he get abused by someone like AD for example?
I understand that, he has high IQ, all good, but why cant a coach find a way to exploit jokic? How can it be that jokic with the worst athletic ability in the last 15 years is unstoppable?
What i want to say is following, Jokic is the first NBA superstar with HORRIFIC athletic ability (young dirk was a way better athlete for example.) like jokic struggles to dunk the ball. That Motherfucker is 6‘11 and STRUGGELS to dunk a basketball, do you know how ridiculous that is?
My question is, why is he the first one that can cover his athletic deficit? What makes him special?

2023.05.31 19:14 freakflag16 What I would do if I was Bruce in the next 2 transfer windows...
Iḿ bored at work so, mostly for my own entertainment, Iḿ sharing what I would like the Revolution to do over the next two transfer windows.
I'm a big roster rules nerd so bear with me.
Summer Transfer Window
Starting the year the revs had all their DP slots and senior roster slots full. However, having put Dylan Borrero on the season ending injury list, they do now have 1 international roster slot, one senior roster slot and a u22 initiative slot open. This is, of course, barring any moves during the summer window that might open up more spaces.
According to the season ending injury rules, Borreros replacement needs to have the same cap hit as Dylan-- 200k (the cap hit for all u22 initiative players over the age of 20). Because of this it makes a ton more sense to replace Dylan with another u22 initiative signing. This is the only way they can spend more than 200k while still keeping the cap hit at 200k as the rules require.
I think the two biggest needs for the revs this window is right winger and defensive depth. I would like to see Bruce use this slot to sign a young right winger (of a similar profile to Borrero).
Another way that Bruce could add some flexibility would be to buyout Jozys contract. Starting this season teams can now buyout one players contract during the season (previously could only happen during the offseason). I dont see this happening, but if I was Bruce I would 100% make the decision and then use the vacated senior roster slot and cap space to sign another CB to compete with Farrell for minutes.
2023/2024 Offseason
Okay so here's where things get complicated.
When Borrero comes off of the season ending injury list, the revs would theoretically then have two u22 initiative players on the roster. Usually teams are only allowed to have one u22 initiative player, but they can have up to three u22 initiative players if their 3rd DP is a young DP (23 or younger) or is a budget DP (under $1,612,500).
Coincidentally Bou's contract is up this offseason so there would be an open DP slot available. If they were to replace Bou with a young DP or a budget DP, they could still keep Borrero and the hypothetical Borrero replacement.
Depending on how many senior roster slots are open (depends on whose contract options are exercised) they could still sign a 3rd u22 initiative signing.
Ultimately I feel like the revs would like to lean into being a selling club and going this direction would allow for the development of 4 quality young soccer players in addition to our HG pipeline.
TLDR
Sign another u22 initiative winger during the summer transfer window
Buyout Jozy and replace him with a ready to contribute CB (I really doubt this happens)
Replace Bou with a young Designated Player in the 2023/24 offseason
Sign a 3rd u22 initiative player in the 2023/24 offseason
Would love to hear y'alls thoughts on this... I think I've got all the rules right but they are complicated so correct me if I'm mistaken on anything.
Any players in particular you'd like to see the revs go after?

2023.05.31 19:12 LFServant5 Losing over 100 points in Ranked
I understand that there are penalties for playing poorly and maybe this was a penalty for my dropping out but to lose 140 points and drop a level when I'm a level 25 mpr 21 oh wait 20 now is a bit ridiculous when your game design pushed me to drop
The two matches before the drop were 4 player races with 2 AI and a Mike which i can only assume is at least level 30. So yes I dropped because there is no way my maxed out level 25 can compete. Then you put me in a seven match which is fine until while I'm shooting for 3 two people time clock in front of me and I get hit on the final curve before ending a pirates race only to lose 140 points.
Your time clocks and four man races are hurting your player base not to mention my needing to grind to get my final five Meg shards so I can be relevant in Emerald.

 | In that post the answer was "wait until weekly reset" which happend today, but these missions are still not avaible. I clearly understand what Toshi says but since there is no in game info about or on social media, i starting to believe that this is only for new players, i mean brand new players or what? submitted by Kurvaember to DragonballLegends [link] [comments] |

2023.05.31 19:10 ASecularBuddhist I was surprised to find that a few translations leave out the “against you” part when talking about sinning in Matthew 18: 15-17. Are there different manuscripts that say different things? That seems like a big difference to me.
Reproving Another Who Sins
If your brother or sister sins against you, go and point out the fault when the two of you are alone. If you are listened to, you have regained that one. But if you are not listened to, take one or two others along with you, so that every word may be confirmed by the evidence of two or three witnesses. If that person refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church, and if the offender refuses to listen even to the church, let such a one be to you as a gentile and a tax collector. (Matthew 18: 15-17)
