Re: [GRIMDARK] Fallout Equestria: Project Horizons Discussion

Turns out the version I have isn't the demo! I'll upload the folder and share the download link here... one sec.

I don't suppose anyone here has read any of the original Casca books? I loved them, it is far and away my favorite disconnected series, by which I mean after reading the first book, you can read any of the rest in any order and not be missing much. I've not met someone else who read them, but I think they are great.

Yes.

Atlas Shrugged in particular is boring as shit but given it forms the biases for Libertarianism it along with the Fountainhead are books useful in a political class or an analysis class as Common Sense and The Age of Reason are excellent works for a American history class.

This is on my "to read" list for a while. I should get around to it. And I don't really have an excuse as to why I haven't, considering the millions of words of fanfiction I've burned through lately. >_>

They had me reading 1984 and Lord of the Flies at that age. The sexual content might be less in-your-face, but the violence and darkness in books like these are palpable.

You're saying this as if you didn't remember we're talking the USA here. The country where games where you murder innocent people in their sleep are rated PG13. But where a 3rd party mod that removes bra texture from female characters, revealing low-resolution nipples on breasts under that makes game's rating bumped to 18+ immediately, together with an outcry for how scandalous that was.

Nah. Violence=okay. Sex=EVIL.

Exactly we are the Mirror Universe verison of Europe where it's...
Violence=EVIL!. Sex=okay

Oh crap, did I miss literature chat?

[RoboRed]

Seems like it's still going.

[Caoimhe]

Read Carlos Castenada's Travels of Don Juan. Good stuff, very philosophical. These books are some of the very few psychedelic adventures that still hold up and aren't blatantly "This is drugs talking" stuff.

Journey to Ixtlan in particular, since it abandons the entire notion of using drugs to embrace spirituality, claims it to be wrong and explores other ways of self discovery.

So I've begun playing Dwarf Fortress. I haven't had fun lost yet, and I looked up a quickstart guide and am starting to grasp the interface. It certainly has an interesting UI.

Wait, you also have two copies of #6?

[SilentCarto]

been meaning to tell you, there's a game I think you'd like called Kerbal Space Program
http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!

Well, I achieved orbit in the demo version. Now to see if I can build a Mun rocket without any proper parts...

[Guest]

WHAT. Goddammit, what other crazy things we used to think could happen when we were five actually can happen?

My WORST experience in assigned reading was a book called Tangerine. I just plain hated it, somewhat on principle since (at the time) I hated realistic fiction. In fairness to me, the only realistic fiction I ever got my hands on at the time was written for "Young Adults" and was not, well... good.

@OAC: Seeds of cucumbers planted on dead bloatsprite can take root in pony stomach.

@Random
Genius! It's like auto-generating food in your stomach! Too bad you have to eat bloatsprite first... Anyway, I have decided that it was definitely possible to catch Mew in Pokemon Blue. If peas can grow inside human lungs, anything is possible! If you'll excuse me, I've got an emulator to go find... =P

On the topic of books, has anyone here ever read any Jack Vance?

Ah, DF, another game that I've not played in a while. Still haven't bothered to upgrade from 40d, either...

I love that this guy had a sense of humour about the situation.

On the other hand, now I have bad memories of mom and dad joking about this sort of thing happening if I ate too many seeds.

Spoiler:

Unless you mean the in-game wishes, I have no problem with that.
I don't want to sound big headed and such, but in real life, I do have some kind've charm that tends to make me likeable... somehow.

Of course, I'm not universally loved by all, but people do tend to like me from the beginning and find me enjoyable to be around.
(Partially because I'm "a crazy bastard" and say/do things that just outright amaze people and amuse them greatly... in the good way!)

[Kattlarv]

@Kipper: I have to say, I had expected you to to be the first to ask to see the picture hehe. (and surprisingly, despite being posted in one of the more well known fandoms to hate anything but child genitals, I am honestly flabbergasted that none so far has said anything bad about it.)

And ah yeah, I remember that, it caused me to "come out" about my size as well xD ... come to think of it, it is rather amusing context wise to think about hehe.

"While I may not have started the rape"... you do know how odd that sounds right? xD But yeah, I think one of us was the one that made that topic derail a tad bit much :P

@Inco: Averted? What are you talking about? You can only delay the inevitable ;D

@Cpt: (Foiled again) Muhahaha- *Twirls mou-... shaves pubes, tapes above upper lip, twirls moustache deviously* ahaha!

@Tyler: (Sims) I see. Sounds like me vs Fallout 3, crashes, crashes everywhere xD

@EP: (sex vs violence) Exactly, I'm from Europe. I'd say that might be rather obvious due to various things, but that might be stereotyping.

@Tyler: (Sims) WHY does my sim have a dress? (partially why I dislike the "inappropriate" trait, all it really does is make the sim dress "inappropriate". It doesn't really do anything else from what I recall... but mostly it just does that.

@OAC: Ah yes, I had heard about that thing way before hehe.

@EP: Speaking of plants, I made Eon characters not too long ago, and my character was a pathfinder, and one of my friends were a farmer, and my parents were farmers, and his was pathfinders, so there was an odd "swapping children" almost. Each were being taught by the other. Anyhow, both kinda received "family nourishment" bonuses, and due to lucky rolls, we kinda both became better at what the other's job was supposed to be. So just for the shits and giggles, I spent an extra points in farming, specializing in "wheat", just so I could state that "I was better at spreading my seed" than him xD (I know, I have a bad humour x3)

Also, heck, overall, I'm surprised more didn't jump at the chance for NSFW. Especially with how many did it the other times. Have people perhaps... *gasp* matured?

Oh yeah I noticed that. See I forgot to change your formal where clothing to something less "Feminine", for lack of a better term. Unfortunately almost all of the formal where options are very much Feminine. The Sims 3 was designed for the "Traditional American Girl" I'm afraid. So there is no clothing options that crossover between the girls and guys and there are few hairstyles for men while a fuck-load for the girls.

This annoyed me greatly as well.

However I did choose it to something that you wouldn't mind as much.

Oh please, NEITHER of us went too far with the rape topic. It was everyone else, of course.
Hahahaha.


I can't help having a huge girth

[tylertoon2]

I forget, were there spots left? Or were you going to go ahead with making a neighborhood of PHers?

Since I'm using the "Awesome" Mod for TS3 I can technically fit as many people in as they can fit.

I'm capping it at twelve though.

Follow-up question, how many spots does that leave still open?

Three.

@Tyler: Fair enough... Sims kinda fails in being "diverse" in that way, and it's as said, why I dislike that trait, it just makes them dress "inappropriate" while not doing much else if I recall. I only ever really wear dresses if I "have to" for formal whatevers. Erf...stupid gender norms.

@Kipper: It's on the freaking top of my "recent" large comment. A 18+ female PoV drawing "designed" for me has finally been finished and made me squee like a ... "" ? In short: It's NSFW and furry xP

And hehe, yeah, we all know it was Silent who took it just too far.

And same here, cept replace girth with... I forget, is there even a proper term for it? Wouldn't think so, but still xD I still can't help having an impressive package hehe. Despite not being the type to brag, I do like to swag about my endowment. (on a side note, I really ought to stop always making Fluttershy well endowed in my fics haha)

Predictable admission: I would like to join this house.
Query: What do you require for entry?
Hesitant confession: I don't believe I remember from back when people were signing up...

Pick five traits (Only base sims 3 please), make some general descriptions of your preferred body, figure ect, Fat, thin, muscular, hair, eye color, fashion ect.
