Re: [GRIMDARK] Fallout Equestria: Project Horizons Discussion

[IncoherentOrange]

Ever heard of the point defense mod for Homeworld 2? A great mod that went south when the creators stopped focusing on making an interesting mod and instead making an art project just for themselves.

Thank you for reminding me it has been far too long since I've played that game!

Homeworld 2 never cut it for me. HW and Cataclysm (fun fact: Cataclysm is rated E, somehow), though, oh-ho-ho, those games are some of my favorites, even if I haven't beaten the former. What we need is Homeworld 3, with more elements from the first two. With modern graphics, do you know how AMAZING that would be to see? Even a remake would be great. Unfortunately, Sierra went under, and even if Barking Dog and Relic are still around, there isn't going to be one, just like there won't be a sequel to Freelancer... Makes me sad.

[Scyto Harmony]

Well, this is Fallout-Related (in a crack-pot sort of way) so I'm going going to leave this here.

Enjoy.

By way of Relic I believe THQ owns the rights to Homeworld now, so another sequel is on them.

I respect Homeworld and Cataclysm, but Homeworld 2 is my favorite at this point mainly due to the Complex mod. That and the few missions that irritated me in the first two...

That and the few missions that irritated me in the first two...

"Oh, hey, can you go through this narrow radiation-proof passage full of MINES to destroy this HEAVILY-DEFENDED BASE, for no real reason? Sure? Good! Oh, and good luck harvesting any resources!"

"Hey man, can you escort this slow-ass damaged carrier to a hole in space guarded by a heavy cruiser? Pwease? Oh, and you can't let that base within spitting distance know you're there, or we're screwed."

"Y'know that destroyer-heavy fleet you've built up/stolen and kept alive through that huge asteroid storm? Guess what? You get attacked by some badass ion frigates and buttloads of fighters, so they're kind of in trouble. Kill the refuelling thingies that look like potatoes while you're at it. Oh, and kill all of these motherships before they ram into you."

Yep, there are those times.

In terms of reading speed, I'm a fast reader compared to most people I know. Not sure what the average time to read FO:E is, but it took me a little less than 25 hours to get through it.

It's like you read my mind.

My reading speed is about 2 minutes per PH page. I can read at double that rate, but I subconsciously slow done after about a minute

@The picture.

Not to be 'That Asshole Admin' ( ), but technically we are not allowed to have posts or links to that kind of thing posted here (pornographic/NSFW pictures or videos).
Just a warning to refrain from posting that kind of material in the future.

Out of Admin mode: that's...interesting...is interesting an appropriate word to describe that?

[IncoherentOrange]

I've had a little fun in Dwarf Fortress. While dumping excess materials, or something of that sort, my dwarves started to fight near the entrance of the fortress. Three died, two wound up wounded--including my miner--and two remaining, with useless skills.

New fortress!

[nebulous]

Honestly I used to care about gender stereotypes, but then I
stopped. People are never willing to change their minds... those that
believe in a sterotype will, and those who don't, don't and that's it.
They'll teach their children how they believe and it'll just continue
on. All trying to change people's minds does is give you a headache, and
it's not worth it to me.

I'm something of a counterexample, having changed from being more than a bit sexist to being a feminist. Though that's the exception to the stereotype-retaining rule.

Also, is this a good time to remind people I don't normally wear underwear? Just saying, keep in mind what you dress me in xD Also, the wish thing almost seems too good to be an accident... or is it called random... or on purpose? Brain, I know it is late, but I need the help right now xD

@Camo: I kinda knew that... sort of, but to my defence, people have done it before ^^' Plus, I put up at least 3 warnings and a spoiler before it, so it's not anything you accidentally click really heh.
And *cough* well, yeah, I guess it could be a fairly accurate work to describe it with.

@Swicked: As said, it is really more a "thrill" arouse thrown into there (guessing you off all here might have the best insight in it... that or my brain is really not with me today haha), it became a tad bit more than I expected, but as said, too busy squealing for finally having one proper drawing of it. And just for the record on that, I am as said ~8 cm, it is being stretched, but not by too much atm. And it would more be in the department of "do it careful, or yes, it will hurt. But anyone with a dog, (or whatever) that is not overly vicious can know they can bite "softly". So yeah, it's quite on that "grey zone" of pleasure, leaning towards pain. Normally nothing I am into, but.. lets just say the artist likes to dance around there haha. So, if I'd give an example pain wise, it'd about be around... having someone bend your arm behind your back, but not pressing on it... I suck at comparison, ah well, whatever. I am sleepy and woozy, I'd do best in not trying to explain sexual stuff, for the sake of all here xD
And thank you, I got quite a package as said. ^^ Can sadly (and gladly) say I think this is the community where the least amount of people have gone the "ew, gross" direction with my how my... "pride" looks. (sad in the way I guess you know the "general reaction", and glad due to well... you haven't reacted like that.) Anyhow, in either way, just wanted to share that. Should prolly lay low for a while now. I think I've used up my allowance of "dirty topics" for at least until the end of next month :P

Actually because your sim has the athletic trait, he compulsively works out. Making him gain Body points ridiculously fast.

That parent to offspring leads back into something I often say on racial relations, the people who voted for George Wallace for Governor all the way until the 1980s are still alive and well and voting. We are not that far off when it was perfectly acceptable (Less than twenty years) to attack those different than you in most states and be able to get away with it if you were considered different enough.

However the culture has changed so once these people do the kindness of expiring of old age and various hilarious accidents the culture will have moved on so the sons and daughters of the sons and daughters will be easily able to accept things as their own parents come to accept things without their parents around to reinforce the stereotypes. The progress of history is slow but steady and bends towards tolerance and all that.

It's good to see I'm keeping busy in the Sims house. :P

(Sorry I've been hella busy lately. I've been tasked to write about the local bike scene in town including the awesomeness that is BIKE POLO and it's been pretty amazing. Get a bike and ride all damn day, people!)

seriously though, I'm just a terrible person who doesn't notice everything sometimes because of distractions, tiredness or simply forgetting to comment on things.




Like the picture a lot though. Om nom nom.
ha.

@Kipper+Other that wants to see it: (Picture) Right, I decided to be lazy and just link it instead of posting x amount of PM's. So here it is:

Spoiler:

Don't go near that spoiler if you are weak of heart or have something against 18+ xP Might should put a "click through link" like Wave did... but ah well, this should do the trick, I hope. Otherwise just whack at me with a spatula hehe.

Oh goodness...umm...teeth...

Just played this. Took me a bit too long to realize I could just string tanks of fuel together without separate engines. After that, orbit was easy.
Did you make it to the moon? I don't think I'm entertained enough by this to try.

Well, you can't just stack the rocket infinitely high. One engine will only lift so much. And if it's too tall, it starts whipping around and breaks in half and then there's screaming and fire everywhere...

But yes, I succeeded in reaching Munar orbit (periapsis less than 300 km, WHEEE!) and returning safely to Kerbin.

@Kattlarv
What picture? Nevermind, I don't think I wanna find out. Probably being around the age where I figure out what you meant with the pringles.

Got's a question for y'all: what're your opinions on text adventure games?

[IncoherentOrange]

Kind of confusing; my generation was raised on UIs and pretty graphics. I haven't really had any fun with them, but I haven't spent much time on them, either. ...Though like a total loser I still tell people they've been eaten by a grue. (Well, in the short time I played Zork for, I got that fate maybe once.)

I've got's a question for y'all too: What is the most annoying sound?

[RoboRed]

I don't know about "most annoying" but the sound of a lone fly in a dead-silent room bugs the ever-living shit out of me.

[IncoherentOrange]

For me, it's the cacophony of barking my three dogs emit whenever something approaches the house, or anything happens, for that matter. And we can't stop it, either; anti-bark collars and devices make them insane, except for our Labrador retriever, who doesn't seem to even mind. It isn't helped by the fact that the loudest dog happens to hang around in my (and Ketchup's) room, and we keep the door closed all the time because it's cold down here. Given the fact that everything sets him (and thus the others) off, we do a lot of letting him in and out, and it's annoying to a hardly-tolerable extent.

Today I found out what a "chapter .5" fanfic means. Oh my.... Sweetie Belle

Today I found out what a "chapter .5" fanfic means. Oh my....

Enlighten us, then. I'd assume it's an addition to the previous chapter, released prior to the next chapter, or perhaps half of a chapter.

Common consensus from IRC seems to be 'smut based on implied sex in an existing fic.' I had no idea so many existed, and at least one for PH even!

I've encountered only one other story with such passages, and I'm not going to be reading those, no. (They're clop scenes between a human and Rainbow Dash. ...I'd rather, y'know, not.)
