As the other commenter said, it never works the intended way for me. I want to say that it used to work and an update broke it but I can’t be 100% sure.

I fucking love civ 6 and I’ll fight anyone who tries to tell me it’s bad. I tried playing 5 as my first civ game around the time it came out but I don’t think I had the attention span for it and I never got into it. Got 6 as part of a humble bundle thing and didn’t touch it for years, randomly decided to give it a go and gyatdamn.
If you forget what happened in Fortnite you should be able to check your replays
Moments like this are like dreams for me.
I’ll start doing something. And it starts to actually get done. Then I’ll throw in another task and it’s getting done too. I’ll realize that I’m getting stuff done, and excitedly try to get more stuff done.
But once I realize that I’m getting stuff done, I “wake up” and it all falls apart, and I’m left with 6 tasks at 75% completion.
Choose freedom.
Be a leader.
Dis u?
People generally don’t not “choose” freedom. We didn’t wake up one morning and say, y’know, I feel like giving away all of my personal data to the government. Telling people whom you’ve got no idea of their struggles to “be a leader” from your keyboard isn’t constructive. It’s noise at best, and condescending at worst. But you do you.
No, but you came in and started doing it anyways, lol. Just wanted to see if there was any substance behind your “do better” message.
So no real tangible advice then, right? Just telling people on the Internet they’re not doing enough? Got it, thanks
So again, why pick? Choose freedom.
Ok, I’ve chosen freedom. Now what happens
Holy crap, I’ve been here almost a year. Well I was using kbin at first but still.
I really like the “who succeeds” idea. In events where I roll a fail and have no idea what to do with it, I can just have the outcome only happen for certain characters, or tweak the “success” so that it isn’t quite so successful. Haha.
This is another thing I fear, that causes me to do probably unnecessary rolls. I want the story/ gameplay to have at least some semblance of believability, so I don’t want everyone risking their life on a curiosity because they know I won’t kill them, but I also don’t want to “punish” players every time they take a step off the walking path.
I’ll admit it right here: sometimes I roll the dice just to give the illusion of risk, when in reality I’m buying time to make up the results of what someone just did.
Thanks for spelling it out like this. I think I’ve been too focused on “doing something” and keeping the game going, that I don’t stop to think before doing some things. Ie rolling before I know what will happen with a failure. I’ll try to take more quick pauses to think things through, and worry about smoothness of play later.
That’s where my problem comes from. I’m not experienced enough to know immediately where failure is acceptable or not; rather, I don’t always have backup plans or ideas for when things that should be able to fail, fail. So I roll, and it fails, and it should fail, but I’ve got no idea what happens when it does. So it doesn’t fail.
I think I’m getting better at improv-ing events and making backup plans. It’s still difficult for me to find the balance between the story I want to tell/ have prepared vs the story that my players wind up creating, but checking in with my party here and there tells me everyone’s having fun and only rarely does anyone feel gipped or abused by dice rolls.
I’m a first time DM and I struggle with this a lot haha. There are times where I feel a roll is appropriate, so I do it, and whatever is supposed to happen fails, then I realize… “what the hell is supposed to happen if that doesn’t work?” so it just kinda happens anyways… IDK if my players have caught on…
I’ve switched to Firefox but there’s definitely a few things that irritate me about it.
First thing is when I boot up my computer, launch Firefox, it launches long enough for me to click a bookmark then closes to perform an update. And then doesn’t automatically reopen…
I also have it set to not “remember” my tabs after closing. Yet when I launch Firefox for the first time after rebooting or closing ally tabs, it gives me a “hmm… we’re having a hard time finding your previous session” message. Uh, yeah, I told you not to look for it… can I just have the regular “new tab” page?
It also might just be because I’m used to chrome, but I feel the mobile app is severely lacking. I hate that I can’t access my bookmarks directly from the new tab page, and that the tablet version doesn’t show you your bookmark bar. The synchronization between mobile and desktop isn’t great either, I’ll have a very long specific search query that I’ve used multiple times on my phone, yet it doesn’t offer it for auto-complete on desktop, I have to search the entire term again or go digging through my history. When you’re searching long model numbers and the like, this is incredibly frustrating.
Finally, and I don’t know if this is a Firefox issue, but there’s some memory leak that occurs when viewing a webcam stream from my raspberry pi that only has happened in Firefox. The first time I noticed it happening my PC slowed to a crawl, when task manager finally opened Firefox was taking 23GB of RAM. So I have to use chrome to keep that steam open for more than a few minutes at a time.
I swear, y’all will find anything to complain about Windows, lol. Not that it isn’t sometimes justified.
You do have our energy!
But it comes out in different ways.
When you laugh at our jokes, or respond (in or out of character) to our banter, or lean in with keen interest during an epic monologue, you feed our energy with yours. I can’t get into a back-and-forth with a brick wall; even if you just laugh and describe what your character does instead of acting anything out, if I know you’re having fun with it that gives me the mental fortitude needed to keep acting ridiculous.
Being the only one in character is one thing, it’s a little awkward at first but once everyone knows it’s your thing it’s fine, but if you’re the only one in character and everyone else just kinda deadpan responds it’s an instant vibe kill. If there’s someone in your party that is always in character, even if nobody else is, that means you make them feel comfortable enough to express their character, and that isn’t nothing! I know they appreciate you letting them channel their character.
Yeah I feel you. I’m doing two campaigns right now, one is my first time as a player and the other is the first time as a DM haha, as a player I’m a bard so the face of the party and my old-school improv skills are getting tested for sure!
Personally I find fleshing out your character’s backstory makes playing them a lot easier. If you know your character inside and out, you don’t have to translate an event into their “language” and think about what they would do or say from their perspective, you just let the thing happen and the character will tell you how they respond.
I’d like to invest in this meme format, an inverted form of the “guy looking back” meme
