What’s funny is I’m actually considering it, because currently Texas is slowly being turned into New California, and not the cool post nuclear kind.

I thought y’all were living in Colorado.

We’re in Colorado right now, cause I’m still in the army. I’m just talking about after I get out

I'm playing Darkest Dungeon for the first time, any tips or advice? Already know the ending boss because I never thought I'd play this.

Welcome to hell. 

-Everyone is expendable before level 3. View your men as currency rather then actual soldiers. If they become too damaged, cast them aside at your leisure. Once you get past that point, then they become your soldiers. 

-Focus on getting the blacksmith built up. It's 100 hundred percent the important building. 

-Always play it safe, the little bit extra investment you can make will make things all the better. 

-Prioritize stuns and buffs. You will be put in a combat loop were the game will reward you for just doing damage, but once you reach a certain level, it'll punch you in the gut in a sudden and brutal way.

-Prioritize getting rid of stress. Always. ALWAYS have a dedicated stress and health healer. 

-Do not feel bad from grinding for resources. You can't do it really with heroes unless you play on radiant, but you can add stuff to your coffers. Building them up with money. 

-If you fail, it's not game over. Just regroup, and never be afraid of cutting you losses if you about to loose heroes you invested alot of time and money into. 

-Experiment with all the classes. A diverse lineup of heroes provides the best way to take back the estate.  

-RNG is NEVER your friend. Always except anything that can go wrong, to do so.

I chose the middle ground of Darkest Dungeon's normal difficulty, but took its advice to disable Crimson Court for my first playthrough. 

About to go on my first proper mission, I dont know if its randomized or not but my first two recruits from the stagecoach is a Plague Doctor and Vestal.

Jesus christ my team has shitty starting quirks

[Centurion 1,731]

just realized I haven’t gifted y’all a selfie in a long while so enjoy my “I’m tired of being in the army” face. Also I downloaded Skyrim on my wife’s switch lite and it honestly feels like I’m playing it for the first time, even tho I know where everything is

Why does it look like they stuck you in a dog pin?  

[BigBossBalrog 2,396]

Nintendo, Xbox, Capcom, Konami, Ubisoft, Take-Two Interactive, Warner Bros. Games, and Koch are all having conferences, so it's going to be pretty big this year.

Cause they did 

[BigBossBalrog 2,396]

I think they took "Dogs of War" too literal 

[Centurion 1,731]

Literally my worst fears were realized coming here. I’m in an armored regiment instead of an infantry battalion, so literally only ONE company out of 5 is infantry everyone else is POG’s. IN SURROUNDED BY FUCKING POGS

I get it. Can’t have the Savage going around taking ears and tongues when he’s not in the field.

If you do, put it on the side of your head like Boldir.

Might make it so you can no longer get a job, but nobody would ever mess with you again.

Imma hold off on the head tattoos for now lol

[ColonelKillaBee 3,969]

Hell no I wouldn’t be mad   

[BigBossBalrog 2,396]

My siblings actually surprised me with an early birthday present; a tattoo paid for  Going to get it done on the 28th. Its my first; so wont be too big. Either branding myself with the dark sign, the symbol of insight, or getting a Cthulhu tattoo.

I don’t know why, but I thought Polygon went out of business.  I’ll give it 50/50 odds that they cancel the event.

If only 

I can't see it to be honest. It's a digital only event, you got to be super super incompetent to fuck that up.

I didn’t know that. Never mind, then. Doubt they cancel.

Was it Kotaku I was thinking of?

I think Kotaku U.K was shut down, but the mainline site is still up.

Since starting the switch playthrough of Skyrim I’ve just got this rock hard boner for the Stormcloaks again and it’s depressing because even now, 10 years later, you run into nothing but “sturmcocks=racists” when looking up anything for them
