oh I was wondering why people were talking about crusader kings recently. guess ck3 came out like a week ago apparently

Especially the Ambition situation. Pretty sure they promised to rework the rewards, which kinda makes me want to hold off on doing an ambition to see what it ends with... but then that just makes this more annoying. Especially cause rn if I want the most Value I probably want to do HD, but I'm torn between HD and LF roleplay-wise for my char.

And sure, I guess, like, you can raise most of the new stats to 7 (except Shapeling Arts, still), and they are adding these boosting items, and you can argue that, yes, they need to make money to keep going... but it stings and is frustrating.

For example: If I want my Artisan of the Red Science at 10, my options are... finish either Heart's Desire or Light Fingers with a certain ending, or get an Election item, which will be available again in, like, 11 months, and to some degree effectively cost Fate, because you only get one of the many Election items for free each year... and I'm very "behind" (though it would be impossible to have them all w/o paying).

Or, like, look at Kataleptic Toxicology items. All of them are either Ambition (mainly ending items), Fate, Seasonal (one is Seasonal Fate and the other is Election which is practically Fate imo as above), or T3 profession.

And I could go on with the rest of the stats, but it's more of the same. Ambition items, which are mainly the endings (except for Heart's Desire, the mentioned precieved better rewards), which you only get one of, Fate, seasonal, and especially a bunch that are seasonal Fate or near enough.

honestly considering opening my pc again here sometime to find wherever the stupid blue LCD on the inside that shines out through the glass panel is and cover it because it means we can't stand having our desktop on whole trying to sleep

it's also just kinda funny because for years I literally had Christmas lights on in my room 24/7/365, and my desktop was rarely powered off, only rebooted
and at some point I just took them down and went the absolute other direction in an attempt to sleep better
not sure it actually helped, especially because way too much light still comes through my blinds, but

not like we smoke, so it's not for that, and even if we did, it'd probably be cannabis vaping, tbh, so. fire not needed

we'd be most likely to find a butane lighter useful in an everyday sorta sense, i think, and otherwise the point would mostly just be for emergencies / "emergencies", which makes a cheap, long lasting lighter make sense... but also there are better emergency/survival options, maybe, a zippo would be cool but.... maybe not practical enough, even with a portable fuel canister, electric lighters are neat but not widely useful.
