.ml censors words like bitch and whore.

For… some reason? Oh, right. .ml, they’re all about that shit. lol

I guess I’m weird and don’t like getting my bed dirty. lol

Why on earth would you shower before getting dirty/sweaty…? If you’re going to shower again… why waste the water then? Humans are a confusing lot, man.

TL:DR: Veilguard is garbage compared to Origins.

I would say so.

Two had a lot of hate because the fanbase was so in love with what they did with the first game. They essentially took everything that made the first game great, and watered it down for the masses. Flashy combat, sure, but the RPG elements were hardly there, which is kind of what the fans loved about the first one. Multiple origin stories (name of the game baby) and a swath of “play your way” gameplay. Tactics for AI companions, the different branching paths for how you handle the choices during the game, and companions who were really well written for the most part with quests to flesh the world out and let the player immerse themselves.

Two was city, back and forth. Watered down game mechanics, a story that didn’t feel as well written as the first, and I’m pretty sure they had the dialogue wheel in two, which is all around god awful for an RPG game. The lines hardly matched what Hawk was going to say.

Inquisition was a step up in some areas, and yet another downgrade in others. It was a solid 5/10 for me. Playable, but nothing to rant or rave about.

The fan base has slowly lost interest in the series as time goes on because their writing is just getting so god damn awful now. Where in Origins, it felt like they could be real people, all reacting in different ways to a Blight that’s at their doorstep, and quickly coming in. In Veilguard, it’s like the writers have only ever consumed marvel movie dialogues and thinks that EVERY single character needs to have some quip, comeback, sob story, or other marvel movie quirk. Really big “well, that just happened!” energy in that whole game.

I think it’s more that “Dragon Age” Veilguard is a shit game in a beloved series. They’ve always had gay characters in that series and no one (sane, mind you) batted an eye. I think the only reason this trans character got fully blown out of proportion is because the writing is mediocre at best, and everything else wrong with the game, which means the trans issue is even more overblown because it got swept into the “bad game in general” train.

There would’ve still been outrage, no doubt about it, but we should all be aware that 90% of that is bots spreading hate and manufactured outrage. If it was an actually good game that got the treatment it deserves as a Dragon Age game, the general populace would’ve shrugged and kept playing it because it’s good.

This is just my opinion though.

While I appreciate the honesty, you are coming off as a jerk.

This is my first time doing anything like this. I don’t normally do anything like this at all. It is a little side thing to have fun learning something new. Most of what you are talking about isn’t even something I am remotely aware of.

I’d be more interested to learn about MediaWiki from you if you hadn’t come off as such a jerk. I stated in the body of the post that I’m using it offline and for personal use. I have also just started, again, as stated in the body.

I appreciate your view, but I recommend coming at a different angle the next time you want to share your knowledge of something you are clearly passionate about.

I’ve never developed or anything like that. Just fiddled around with HTML, CSS, and markdown before. Can you explain the upsides to the git structure? I’ve never used it, so I’m interested to know from someone who has used it!

I see! I believe this is my first time ever using anything that needed a database, so I’m not really keen to any downsides of a database structure. It does make sense to keep them simple like that, so I will take that into account if I ever feel like simplifying it!

There are a few options when creating a new page, markdown, RAW HTML, etc. So to make it easy on myself I’ve just been using the HTML for easy import of the wikis I’m interested in.

Yeah, I noticed that when you choose a format, it’s that format or delete and start over with the new format. That would be a neat feature at least, but I can see the troubles of properly reformatting the file into the new format you want. Luckily, I’m just using it for giggles and a little bit of learning! Haha!

What made you choose docuwiki over Wiki.js? I saw dokuwiki, but preferred the sleeker design of Wiki.js, but I know that’s just a personal preference! Is there a function in docuwiki that you were really interested in?

I’ve added a screenshot to the main post of what it looks like after I did a reformat of the content from the Stardew Valley Wiki. I highly recommend it so far!

This is me.

I have Firefox delete everything besides container URLs, because I don’t want cookie and site data living on my computer. It would be a nice feature, but I’m not going to make a container for every website so they don’t sniff each others cookies like dogs sniff each others asses.

I’m butchering this, I’m sure, but. As you grow older, time seems to fly by faster because your brain is basically culling similar experiences. That commute to work, that is practically the same 90% of the time, isn’t interesting to your brain for it to “save”, so that time basically disappears to you.

I found something that will explain it better than I can. :-P

While I wouldn’t say it is crucial by any means, it is a fun piece of DLC. I put over 400 hours into Cyberpunk before I got the DLC though, so that may have been why I was okay with purchasing it! Either way, it does make me happy to see someone enjoying the game! :-]

I got a Dell computer that was headed for the dump from someone, installed TrueNAS Scale on it, and it has actually replaced my Synology for everything other than straight up storage. Now the Synology does the storage, and everything else is in TrueNAS. It did take me a few lookups to understand the permissions on TrueNAS, as Synology is much easier to set up in that regard. I like the fine grain permissions controls, sure, but it was definitely not user friendly to a complete noob like Synology was.

The part where you use your powers to save that one character, and the repercussions of that action, shook me.

Watched JackSepticEye a lonnng time ago play this game. It’s a really well done story! I should see if it’s on the Steam Sale since I have my own gaming rig now.

I still have friends who haven’t beaten that game, and I feel like they’ve missed out on one of the most interesting characters developed in gaming recently. I’ve only ever been able to do the “good Arthur” playthrough though, so if most people played like how they play GTA, they might never get to know Arthur’s REDEMPTION.

So damn good.

It depends, I would guess. They usually source people from other regions so they don’t have any hang ups about shooting that city’s populace.

“Yeah, this one goes out to all the baby’s mamas’ mamas…”
