Editor for and Demon Sword Maiden!
Gentrified NEET and siscon.
Currently looking for an imouto. Applicants must be under the age of 16, cute and with long hair.
Optional traits are: Neko, princess and/or maid.
I’m always very emotionally conflicted by the temperature of my room.
In winter it is very cold, so I want to turn on the radiator. The issue is, I sit next to the radiator and so does my PC.
Which means that things get hot quickly and I’d rather not have that.
So I need to pick between nice room temperature or nice PC temperature.
I now have over 100 hours in my X4 game.
Including the in game time acceleration feature my save is now 7 days old I believe.
A lot has happened in that tiny timeframe for galactic politics.
Empires defeated, economies collapsed, enemies made…
I managed to make friends with my target after many hours of effort only to find them on the brink of defeat…
I somehow need to befriend an empire that’s collapsing on all sides as a persons who’s forte is trade…
Can’t trade when there’s no economy!
I made over 50million on X4 now! Hurray!
This puts me just under half way towards my ultimate goal of building my own spaceship from the ground up!
So far I can make the hull, weapons, shields and engines but I still need to work on the ability to make the drones and missiles.
Of course, even when I can make all the parts I still need the really expensive blueprints to assemble them, which is what I am saving up for.
So it’s been announced that Shokuhou Misaki from A Certain Magical Index is getting her own spin off.
After Accelerator’s spin off was a bit of a drag I hope they can pull this one off.
A Certain Scientific Mental Out here we come!
I am a bit excited because it’ll be interesting to see where this sits in the canon.
Oh dear god please don’t make me have to rewrite a huge portion of my fanfic plans in order to accommodate the new additions to the canon!
So today I learned that Dark Forest Theory isn’t some game theory or sociology concept but in fact the creation of a science fiction author from China.
Well it’s not too surprising, since I first read it in a Chinese web novel, where they probably poached the concept, but it came as a surprise.
Dark Forest Theory is actually rather interesting, if not bleak, and the exact opposite of all my hopes and aspirations for the future.
Well I doubt I’ll be able to see how things turn out anyway, so best of luck future generations.
Did you guys see the trailers for the new anime? Oh right and that Tsukihime remake thing that got announced or whatever it was…
Wonder what that is?
I remember thinking about it before in the past but…that was so long ago I’ve forgotten now…
Oh well can’t be that important.
And then there’s Combatant’s first PV. Yay. Should be pretty fun if they adapt it well.
I don’t have the level of brain power or effort to write much for this pre-chapter rambles today.
I’m quite a bit exhausted.
Spent all the day roleplaying, had to do the event on Genshin which I suck at and it took too many attempts to get it half done…I still need to do the other half tomorrow.
My X4 game is either a miracle or a disaster…I can’t decide which…because two of the major factions of the game have been eliminated in a war, removing an entire race from the universe sandbox. It’s amazing that it’s possible but also not so amazing that my game is now half wrecked by what is blatantly a violation of canon…especially when I was hoping to use that save to experience all the future DLC new too for a unique experience of what happens when a well established empire collides with a brand new one that DLC added instead of coexisting from the start.
I started watching The Grand Tour recently with my family.
Man is it hilarious.
I used to love this trio on Top Gear and I’m really glad that Grand Tour eventually worked out, it’s basically become a best of both worlds.
The first season is a bit iffy but when they start to just follow the challenge format that they did for Top Gear specials it’s a spectacle of joy.
Even though the staging is a little more obvious for some parts, the comedy is still top tier.
I forgot to do the Genshin event for the past few days and haven’t logged into FGO since Christmas.
Maybe gacha is starting to lose its hold on me?
Ah who am I kidding, I just don’t have enough hours in the day to do everything I mean to do.
Doesn’t help that I oversleep so much.
Anyway, back to doing nothing and lamenting my lack of time.
Hey guys!
This is my first post for the year!
I almost forgot to make it because my schedule has been out of whack since Christmas, especially with how much time I’ve been spending on X4.
Sadly my enthusiasm for that game got killed a bit today when I realised the “completely dynamic universe where the AI and player operate on the same rules” means literally anything can happen.
Including gamebreaking situations like entire NPC factions being removed from existence and thus locking off all their content permanently.
I do like that the game is totally dynamic and dependant on player actions, but I feel like this lack of control causes too many irrecoverable situations now.
I forgot to do my Genshin login because I was distracted with X4.
Alas.
Guess I’ll have to try and remember to do both tomorrow. Or today, since it’s 5am.
I somehow managed to tank the Silicon economy in my X4 game by overmining.
I used to get 130,000 per haul but now I’m lucky to get 110,00 per haul.
That might not seem like much until you realise how frequently my vessels unload their hauls! The per haul drop isn’t over significant but the accumulated loss in profits is a massive dent in my plans to create a mining empire!
Well actually it’s not too bad, I just need to locate another system that I haven’t destroyed the economy of. Or reallocate one of my silicon vessels to mine ice or something instead to let the economy recover from my overabundance.
There were so many editor and translator comments this chapter it was insane!
I got dizzy just trying to remember which ones I had copied over properly and which ones I hadn’t!
Or maybe that was just because I was multitasking a game in the background?
I just got kidnapped by a mining ship in X4….
I was exploring the new feature of being able to walk around your ship and stations, I didn’t realise the teleporter took me to docked ships as well as new station modules!
I saw a bridge on the teleport list and started walking around the bridge! It turned out it was a huge mining vessel and it started to fly away!
This left me stranded on their ship since I couldn’t go back to the station where my ship was. I was a stowaway!
I had to order one of the my NPCs to dock at the big ship and pick me up in order to escape. I’m just lucky it was a big mining ship that kidnapped me, if it had been a smaller one then I would have to wait until it landed somewhere else!
