I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.
The buff-bar on the left is a total mess now.
First of all, in the Blind Wells activity the buff you get from orbs is called 'Harmony', just like the new damage perks that was added recently. That is very confusing.
Secondly, that buff along with the 'Touch of the Sky' buff in the same activity, they push out other usefull buffs that I might want to keep track of, like Sturm Overcharge rounds or buffs from Charged with Light mods (resist for example) or many other useful buffs from mods/wepons/etc.
Add nightmare essence to the equation when doing altars, various seasonal activity buffs. And all of that is somehow supposed to fit into a 3-rows-high bar.
It would be nice if bungie made a QoL update to that part of the game in particular, like renaming certain buffs for clarity, making it fit more text, rearranging buff priority.
EDIT: People are also saying that some raid-specific buffs can get pushed out as well or be unnoticed. I don't do raids so I didn't even know that. And if I get mad at not seeing a buff when killing ads in patrol, I can't imagine how one must feel when they cause a wipe during a raid because they couldn't see a buff/debuff.
I've been burnt out of valheim for a while now. Waiting for a new update. The other day I spent about 3 hours perfecting my ideal valheim experience in the meantime. There are a bunch of things in valheim that I'd prefer if they were just not a thing (Like stamina cost for the hoe). Well guess what. There's a mod for that. I challenge you to take a look through the top all time mods for Valheim and just scroll through the pages. I'm sure you will find a few QoL changes that work for you.
Here is a list of my perfect experience. (so far)
- Plant anything: I can plant any crop, berries, mushrooms, etc
- Craft from containers: I can use items that are nearby in a container (20 yard range)
- Slightly more inventory space: Extra 2 rows. This does not increase carry weight.
- Faster boats: Boats travel about 2 times faster reveal more area on the map when sailing
- No Rain damage to things without a roof
- No Stam cost for hoe and cult
- Torches and bonfires never run out of resin
- I can use equipment when swimming (Gone are the days of struggling to make a dock)
- Trophies are now consumable: adding 1 random skill point when consuming (gives more purpose to trophies)
- Ore and other gatherable nods on the map are automatically added to the map with a pin (need to walk within 10 yards of the nod)
- HD texture update
- FarmGrid: makes planting perfect
Many folks in the community have said that Scourge league was abandoned after two weeks. You can find YouTube videos from prominent streamers like Zizaren, Raiz, Badger, BigDucks, etc., who all felt like Scourge league was close to being a great league mechanic, but it just needed a few tweaks. Unfortunately, those tweaks never came so Scourge is now regarded as underwhelming nearing its end and many don't even want it added to the core game in its current iteration.
I went through and compared the patch notes of previous leagues to get an idea of how "complete" they were at launch. The general trend seems to be that league mechanics continue to receive changes 3-4 weeks after launch with a few outliers mixed in there. I didn't want to include the patch notes addressing expansion content that launched alongside a league, so you're only looking at league mechanic changes.
- Scourge league received 2 patches after 2 weeks and it didn't address the major issue of balancing Scourge mods to make the mechanic feel worthwhile. There were a few 'What We're Working On' posts from GGG that didn't fully elevate Scourge to what we were all hoping it to be.
- Expedition received pretty decent changes after the first two weeks, then one minor change after 3 weeks, but I don't think there were any glaring changes needed to be made in Expedition.
- Ultimatum had some minor tweaks after about 2 weeks. It didn't really need many changes made other than buffing the Trialmaster spawn rate, but GGG at least communicated that they don't feel this is necessary and gave data on spawn rates. Even if you disagree with the result, at least they said why they aren't changing it.
- Ritual launched alongside the Echoes of the Atlas expansion and was in the same boat as Ultimatum in that it didn't really need any major patches, but it did receive minor tweaks 2-3 weeks after release.
- Heist received a major overhaul (alert level) about a week into the league and continued to receive patches even 4 weeks after release, some of which being the unique contracts, which is interesting because GGG never really added new league content in a later patch. Have to wonder if these contracts just weren't ready in time or if they found last minute major bugs that resulted in them needing to be removed from the drop pool until fixed.
- Harvest received some pretty major balance changes throughout its iteration even 4 weeks after release.
- Delirium had a ton of changes up to 5 weeks after r

I have been coming up with some Men-at-arms for the many cultures of AtE which kinda snowballed in me doing a full list of unique Innovations for every single region of the American continent and for every conceivable culture that I could think of (from AtE:ff, teased in dev diaries or just assumed to be added in CK3 somehow). It still needs some revisions but I am planning on turning it into a submod once the mod comes out.
Anyway, since I am not from, nor have I ever even visited the American Continent, I would appreciate if you guys could help out with some feedback!

Update 31: The New War
https://www.youtube.com/embed/Tua7aK6Y7NY?feature=oembed
_Open Letter From the Developers:
The New War has arrived. This Cinematic quest has come together from all of our team working from our homes across the world, and we’re bringing it to yours. Perhaps for some the wait has been long, years for some veteran Tenno, but it ends today.
A lot has happened following the initial anticipation for ‘The New War’ in 2018 with our first teaser trailer. Over the course of the years, we’ve had events to move the story along (with some cryptic hints)… and then lockdown happened, which truly set us back a year. This is not an exaggeration or an excuse, it is a fact that bears mentioning. We intended to ship the cinematic quest experience much earlier, our own delays and then the world’s delays got in the way of that, but it’s finally here.
Despite the wait, what hasn’t changed is our unquenchable desire to surprise our players and tell your story. The story of the Tenno.
The New War represents the biggest undertaking in the history of Digital Extremes, as well as a new progression point for our Tenno. It has been many years since there was a clear story point that a Tenno could reach. From ‘just get to the Second Dream’ to ‘make sure you’re done the Sacrifice’, we now have that firm goal: wage The New War. This journey will take you several hours, and is one you will not be able to turn back on once you've started, so make sure you are prepared!
The New War is here. The stage is set for the future. Once you’ve finished, join us in 2022 for what comes next for Warframe in a post New-War world…
Thank you for your patience and kindness, Tenno._
SPOILER POLICY
This quest has significant Spoilers for Warframe and its future. Please let all Tenno experience it at their own pace, and be kind. Use liberal spoiler tags if you wish to talk about it, and do not ruin the experience for someone else. Content Creators should clearly label spoiler content and use spoiler-free thumbnails.
The Quest can be discussed in our temporary Sub Forum: <https://forums.warframe.com/forum/1782-the-new-war/>

Preamble
We haven't had a content Megathread in a while but considering the simultaneous JP and GL release of Complex Dream, one might be useful to consolidate the information that's come out and will be uncovered as both communities play through it. Please co-construct it by adding info in the contents :). Deepest thanks to u/Someweirdo237, u/Retredre, u/Nowhereeverywhere, u/Former_Letterhead285, u/Acnelei, u/Ands2, u/raventsu, u/Nohall5232, u/IlyaSmirnov, u/Gap_Horror, u/knpk13, u/CoffeeTeaAndPancakes, and u/dreicunan for invaluable contributions!
Welcome to all our new players! We hope you'll enjoy the world of AE as much as we have. You may find this Primer for New Players by u/xPalox useful for you, along with the other resources at the bottom of the megathread.
For those unfamiliar with Chrono Cross, this totally accurate, official, sanctioned and serious Primer may help fill you in.
#I. Overview
Premise
The story begins with Aldo and friends wander into a version of Miglance ruled by the Beastfolk. They encounter Serge, Kid, and Harle who cross over into the same world. Lynx, Glenn and Starky will also be part of the Symphony as NPCs. FATE also looks to be involved based on the key art visual that has it merged with Visus Embryo.
Release Details
- Simultaneous JP and GL release date: 9 Dec 2021, UTC.
- Ver 2.10.200, this will be an app store update. Make sure you have enough space on your device.
- End date: 9 Dec 2026 (Yes, our first limited-time Symphony. But I mean, 5 years is a long time...).
- Clear Chapter 13 to start the Symphony. Part of the Symphony will require Main Story Part 1 to be completed (clear Chapter 26).
- Start the Symphony Prologue through Records in the in-game menu, then go to Baruoki to begin the Symphony proper.
- Pro-Tip: During the Prologue, go past the quest marker after the cutscene to find a hidden path. This is needed for a Sub Event later on.

Or would that be too forward thinking?
Let me share my 2000h of modded wisdom with you, my fellow vanilla comrades. My attempt here is to provide you with as many as possible improvements to the base game while keeping the style, balance and content as vanilla as possible. As they say, when works the best is when you don't realize it is there. I guarantee you that after playing a few dozen hours with these, you will no longer be able to tell what's vanilla and what's not. Welcome to the wait, is not vanilla? gang. No, seriously.
I decided to cut my recommendations onto several lists, so it's easier for you. The most purists players can stuck with QoL only. Or, even if youre so psychopath purist that you dont want any QoL improvement, you still can use the performance list.
Here's the link to the steam collection.
How to mod the (steam) game?
I made a beguinners guide in imgur.
Mandatory mods: Harmony and Huglibs. Something something libraries. They do nothing on their own, but most mods require them. While fewer, a lot of mods also require the Vanilla Framework Expanded, so suscribe to that one too.
I also recommend these two, is never wrong to have more tools at hand:
- Mod manager. Better in-game mod manager.
- ModDiff. Display differences between your current modlist and the game you want to load.
Once you subscribed to all the mods you wanted, you must sort them. I recommend RimPy. Do this every time you change your mods.
If you use the performance mods, run Rocketman adaptative mode the first time, as well as every time you change your mods. Um... if you are trying out stuff, you can wait until you are finished. Is not like your save is going to explode or something, it simply won't grant you a performance bonus. Adaptive

This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
I've started playing killer instinct recently and it boggles my mind how this game BTFO's every other game in terms of consumer friendly business practices considering it came out EIGHT YEARS AGO

>characters appearing in season passes for DLC if you want it
>can buy specific characters and don't need a season pass
>can buy the 'comes with everything version' for 40 dollars (10 on sale right now)
>can lab against characters you didn't own in training mode

>crossplay between console and PC

>no cosmetic DLC that can't be obtained through gameplay
>it's 100% feasible to unlock unlike every other game
I swear nobody plays each other's games or even considers other developers and advancements in the fighting game development sphere. Games like Killer Instinct and Skullgirls have all the features and all the QoL that you could ever ask for. Because it was made by guys who have wanted these things for ages and just put it in, because their team lead isn't some 60yr old salaryman with terrible ideas that can't look at the advancements the genre and other games have made.
Seriously all the shit problems with fighting games was solved circa 2010 with shit like rollback and advanced training/trial modes in games like 3S Online Edition and the PSN/XBLA MvC2 releases. We're still begging for fucking rematch buttons in 2021 for god's sake.

So What did 3 say to 8 ?
" Hey, you two stop making out "
When I got home, they were still there.
I bought this game over holidays with the Epic Game Store discounts.
In the beginning, building up the starter factory was a bit daunting so I watched the perfect starter factory by TotalXclipse. In it, he was flying around to build out the factory.
I found that building things in first person was difficult because the machines were so big and it was hard to see. So I downloaded the mod that allowed flying. It was so much easier to build my factory (especially when building vertically).
Once I started to venture out my starter factory, I mostly walked to explore (to avoid "cheating"). I built out some coal power plants and a steel factory a little ways off. Many times, I would run out of materials to build and I would just fly back to my starter factory for them.
I am now at a stage where I need to look for crude oil and that's like 900m away. Traveling back and forth on foot or on vehicle feels very slow. But abusing flying seems to be completely negating the whole travelling mechanic.
Have I basically ruined the game for myself by enabling flying so early in the game? How did you guys build out everything and advance until you get a jetpack? How do you get around efficiently?
Edit: thanks for all the replies! I’m hindsight, I really shouldn’t have enabled flying so early. I kinda wish there was a specific build mode where my pioneer deploys a drone so that I can build from a flying view. This could be an early to mid game unlock and would be a big QoL improvement IMO.
I won't be doing that today!
NEWS RELEASE
Ontario Temporarily Moving to Modified Step Two of the Roadmap to Reopen
Time-limited measures needed to preserve hospital capacity as province continues to accelerate booster dose rollout
January 03, 2022
Premier's Office
TORONTO — In response to recent trends that show an alarming increase in COVID-19 hospitalizations, the Ontario government, in consultation with the Chief Medical Officer of Health, is temporarily moving the province into Step Two of its Roadmap to Reopen with modifications that take into account the province’s successful vaccination efforts.
These time-limited measures will help blunt transmission and prevent hospitals from becoming overwhelmed as the province continues to accelerate its booster dose rollout. As part of the province’s response to the Omicron variant, starting January 5, students will pivot to remote learning with free emergency child care planned for school-aged children of health care and other eligible frontline workers.
“As we continue with our provincial vaccine booster efforts, we must look at every option to slow the spread of the highly contagious Omicron variant,” said Premier Doug Ford. “Putting these targeted and time-limited measures in place will give us more opportunity to deliver vaccines to all Ontarians and ensure everyone has maximum protection against this virus.”
Unlike other variants throughout the pandemic, [evolving data](https://u22040672.ct.sendgrid.net/ls/click?upn=nW6WfPO4Bjg1VsnalDVrybSO-2FtDb5BsTeDfkaqGH8KPchNFzPHwNhqpVPT5QIqaZxP-2Fce-2B-2Bn5KNN1GojSdjoFMsxOUCfEBnFxBi4lkipq0nwoatXKXD-2BoJ9VkQDizDXHuvj7Y05wUC8cGNEerO-2F8yxrbrFxGTD5QzdWeQWMZzYNmzNXECbsuVjhCPqDYxa65NO0bs4kFH4QwfSLE3q07R64BlfrGj3rLtaFRsc2CmmSSv8kGNrhFbY0GqhPc048v
