I liked what I saw from the first handful of articles, so I’ve added that site to my feed reader. It’s good to see you back again! I hope you’re doing better.

That’s really kind of you! Don’t expect to be inundated, it’ll be a weekly thing for whoever is in the fediverse scene, loves gaming, tech and so on, and wishes to contribute articles. I think it’s fun, so I’m glad you gave it a nod of approval!

Thanks :)

Does anyone know how NOT to have all of your bloodlines end due to excessive incest in this game? All of my characters are too mentally challenged to reproduce. It seems like a really odd narrative choice by the devs.

Wolf,

It seems like a really odd narrative choice by the devs.

Odd, but surprisingly historically accurate.

Maybe the dev’s are secretly tying to get you to understand that you are playing as the bad guys and them eventually dying off due to their own disgusting traits is a feature and not a bug?

Yes, but these were all through first cousin marriages which were only legal if the Pope gave permission. What most CK3 players do is marry their kids so they don’t lose shit-tons of land because of the stupid partition system they are using.

Wolf, (edited )

If you read it, it was much more than first cousin marriages. There were brothers marrying sisters, Uncles marrying their nieces, first cousins, second cousins…if there was a type of incest, you can bet your ass a ‘Royal Highness’ has practiced it at some point.

What most CK3 players do is marry their kids

I hope you mean to say that they marry their kids to each other, though that’s only relatively (get it?) better than marrying your own kids. Not a sustainable long term sexual practice at any rate.

so they don’t lose shit-tons of land because of the stupid partition system they are using.

Not losing out on land and wealth is precisely why Consanguinity was practiced among ‘royalty’. You are basically mad at your historical game for being historically accurate.

The historical reason for cousin marriage were generally to cement alliances between relatives and to keep land in the family should the male line of some house die out, those aren’t the reason you marry relatives CK3.

In CK3 you marry relatives because you want your children to be herculean beautiful geniuses and to stop your daughters weak claim from becoming a problem.

I generally don’t really like such list articles as they are mostly sensationalist and cheap, this being the perfect example of one. In the case of CK we are not talking about inbreeding in the Egyptian dynasties (which had religious rather than practical reasons). Hawai’i seems similar though I know to little about their nobility to judge. The section they have about Roman inbreeding was honestly just terrible and completely divorced from reality. I am not aware of any marriage between siblings among European nobility (between like 600-now) (other than Jean V of Armagnac that I just found on Wikipedia and which upon first read sounds like an extreme exception). Could you name another one?

ZombiFrancis,

I played CK2 more than CK3, but mainly I recall a successful dynasty winds up being too desireable. It’s not about the blood relation, it’s about the… huge tracts of land!

So while you can control it somewhat within your own realm and dynasty, my reliable go-to strategy was always marry Lowborns with good traits. Let/hope the stats make up for lack of title and opinion hits.

  1. You’ve gotten way-the-fuck better at this whole thing in the year or so you’ve been doing it
  2. You can’t trick me; that’s just outside
Blackmist,

The weird thing is, it’s not actually that different to how it looked and played on PS3.

Meanwhile there’s people considering an upgrade for that 4080 Ti…

Sidhean,

Outside looked a little different back in 2013, is all :3

This sounds fantastic. I’ll have to try it out. Years ago, I tried using hyperspin, but found it to be a lot of work and eventually gave up. This looks to be much simpler, which is exactly what I wanted.

Aw dang, I missed the point at which you reached a full year of these, belated congratulations on that

Are you playing the remake or the original one? Or is there only one on PC?

@lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world avatar

Only the remake is available on PC.

All of Metal Gear Solid.

The story of the whole series spans decades and decades, and even watching a video laying out an abridged version of that story takes like 6 hours to watch.

Something as long running as that and with lore that goes that deep should definitely be preserved at all costs.

FTL is great. It’ll probably run on a toaster. I’ve also heard that it has a bajillion great mods to play if you get tired of the base game

Factorio.

PakSysAdmin,

Is their anything similar my goal is to have em free…

RobotZap10000,
@RobotZap10000@feddit.nl avatar

You can pirate 'em if you’re that short on cash. Most of them don’t cost too much more than €20. 0 AD is entirely free, along with all of the Super Tux games.

PakSysAdmin,

Plese guide me on pirating them on linux. I dont want to opt for wine( its a headache on my system). Also i am from Pakistan so buying is a big no no…

RobotZap10000,
@RobotZap10000@feddit.nl avatar

-Find pirating site (I don’t really know any lol)
-Download Linux executable (FTL.x86_64)
-Maybe find a way to somehow sandbox it in case that it contains malware
-Enjoy!

PakSysAdmin,

Well I almost know all such sites but I dont think any of them offer linux executables…

Pong, it was the first Videogame ever, also Pacman and Space Invaders as the base of almost all other games (Shooter, RPG, Racing games, Flight simulators, etc). Tetrix, the Snake game, inspiration of the Tron movie. These certainly belongs in a Museum of gaming history…
