Watching these. :)

I started a new heavily modded Skyrim game as a Khajiit bard (mostly roguish skills, archery, alchemy, illusion, probably smithing and enchanting too). Now trying to get the game to be stable - it's mostly okay, but occasionally CTDs. I'm checking if I can reduce the script load while keeping all the mods I really like.

Thanks. :) I was thinking of doing a vanilla Skyrim game, but after reading an article by a guy who's played Morrowind since release and keeps finding new stuff, I decided to give it a go again.

Would have liked to use the overhaul, but ... oh well. It worked with my old gfx card, but not any more. So vanilla-ish it is. :)

I had forgotten that walking/running anywhere was so slow. :D

I've put Morrowing on hiatus. There's long slow stretches in the game that I think it would be best to edit the episodes, but that's a bit too time consuming what with having to re-render the videos after that (if I had a second computer I could use exclusively for that I might consider it).

So for now, let's play Tharsis, a heavily luck based dice rolling game about a doomed mission to Mars: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iqjtaMIU5O0

While I really like the idea of Tharsis, it seems that there is very little content in total.  Combined with the fact that the choices seem pretty limited and repetitive, I'm not sure it's something I'd ever bother getting.

If they ever extend the concept (which I think is generally good), they might have a great game on their hands.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Let's play 7 Days of: Tharsis - Day 2

Around ~minute 23, you used the research points to buy Special Tools, then seemed confused by what it did.  It applies 7 repair points to the module that the current crewman is in.  It brought the difficulty from 14 down to 7.

Yeah, I noticed in the next episode. At first I just read "Module Repaired" and thought "sweet!"

I agree that it's a decent concept, but while I don't mind the randomness, your actual options are often limited. In the main menu there's a button "Missions - Coming Soon" which indicates that they intend to add more content, but as it stands I'm not sure the recommended price of 14.99 is a good valu proposition (though it's heavily discounted atm).

I will do a quick summary of my impressions after Day 7.

I'm extremely crap at it and go down in flames in that series. :lol: Arumba did a decent series on it, I believe, with the recent expansion.

You can't be worse than me: yesterday I played 40 turns without having a single clue about what I was doing and how to progress in the game.
The game seems interesting, but the map is a bit cluttered for my tastes, and the tutorial stops early and doesn't give enough info on several mechanics.

And reading manuals is for sissies.  :P
