Surface Mine Puns

I like to have boxes for my electronics.

I don't care about the instructions etc.

Anyways, I am in the US. So PM me if you have one you don't need.

I didn’t know i could do that, i wonder if its a bug or something. But basically when flying low on a planet surface if I shoot at plants/rocks i get a ton of carbon and ferrite ! Much more efficient than with the multitool

I got a secondhand Pro 6 last week. Device came as new, not refurbed just hardly used, boxed, not a mark on it. It's a great bit of kit and I love it - however, the charger is bloody awful. I know it isn't to do with the electrics in my house as I've used (using this term loosely because it barely works) it in different locations and in different sockets.

The pins on the charger are clean and undamaged, and there are no obvious issues with the power brick or the cabling. It's very sporadic with when it works and doesn't, and doesn't seem to be related to which way I put it in or if it's moved. Is this a common issue? Is there a trick to it I should know about?

I have a little over 150 hours in the game so don't take this as the most proffesional guide there ishowever I believe it can come in handy for new players (also sorry for any gramar and spelling mistakes )

I also highly recommend doing a few runs before reading this if you're completely new to the game

things you can do before entering the ''starting area of the game'' the right side

If you have a potion of mud you can use it to climb on top of the tree ( just spray a bit on the side of the mountain. a single pixel is enough to stand on) or if you have dynamite (fire missle and fireball works too ) on your red wand you can make a hole (used as a flight regen spot) into the mountain making you able to float on the ledge of the mountain and get on the snowy top then fly upwards and find a floating island where you can find an orb of true knowledge and a lore tablet (which can be used to deal huge amounts of damage to enemies by throwing it at them ) incased in frozen rock and snow (again you can use dynamite , fire missle or the fire ball to destroy it and get them)then you can travel farther right and find the lake with a music box that is worthless to you at the beginning of the game

after the lake you can go farther right to find the desert where a giant worm skull head. You can fill its eye with water to create a portal that will get you all the way to the giant lake on the very left of the world (the water is going to evaporate because of ''the air feels hot here'' )

after that there is the pyramid that you can enter and climb on top of. On top of the pyramid there is an Orb of true knowledge and a lore tablet

you can go even further to find the scale which is useless to you

even further is the essence eater (a bit more about that later )

then there's a huge wall of dense rock which you can climb and find the ''' ??? ''' room with a big diamond shaped object with ''essence of the earth'' inside you can break the sides of it to get it which will make you shoot out 6 small exploding projectiles which slow over time and can hurt youif you destroy the essence eater while having the essence with you it will grant you a rock that can turn any solids into soil if held (and also cause mini earthquakes if you kick )

that is it for the right side of the surface

things you can do before entering the ''starting area of the game '' the left side

you can go left and find a giant tree with a low hanging branch that you can levitate on to

I mean I know a lot of sieges involved attempts to dig under the wall, but it’s my understanding that the 1683 siege of Vienna is particularly notable because both sides were digging in and out respectively, and attempting to attack each other’s tunnels with explosives and whatnot. Similar to what happened in the Sim

Platform(s): PS2

Genre: aRPG / maybe turn based?

Estimated year of release: 2000-2005

Graphics/art style: Pretty typical JRPG graphics, it was either 3rd person or 3rd/camera locked

Notable characters:

Notable gameplay mechanics:

Other details: You start off deep underground (100-200 floors?) in a gritty grimy mine shaft with the idea that the above ground is post-apoc/unliveable, and as you progress through the game, and climb levels towards the surface, you notice that the floors are getting nicer and nicer, and the air quality is improving, and you finally crack open to the surface and realise that it's completely normal and liveable

• This group of people get captured and put in the tunnels.
• At one point they're in a rectangular room filled with bodies where the two hide out for a while.
• Only a guy and a girl make it out of the tunnels alive, the rest of the group dies along the way.
• They escape by coming up out of the tunnels into a barricaded house / small building that they break out of.
• After they escape they look for someone to give them a ride, and find a guy who says he will drive them and offers them a drink (that may have been drugged?). The guy drinks it. He drives them back to the entrance of the tunnels. They manage to overcome him and escape.
• The monsters may have been Frankenstein style creatures, but I might be misremembering. I don't really remember what or who was hunting them down.

Do you know the movie?

Edit:

• It had to have came out before 2008, probably before the 2000s.
• It wasn't about miners or cave explorers
• It may not have been a mine, but some kind of shallow tunnel network.
• Makes me think of Texas Chainsaw Massacre, it had that in the middle of nowhere surrounded by psychopaths vibe to it.
• It wasn't really about being trapped in a house, that's just how they got to the surface. They had a hard time breaking down the blocked doors / windows.
• I think it was on the Sci Fi channel way back when.
• It doesn't have to do ghosts, curses, super natural, or occult. It doesn't feel silly or avant garde.
