I'm thinking about hosting some kind of event to help drive participation in the community.

Some ideas we could do:

  • Weekly anime rewatch
    • A classic staple in anime communities, everyone gets together and agrees on a show to watch weekly, and we have a thread discussing it. This is the most likely candidate as of now because of its simplicity and wide audience reach.
  • Beehaw Sings?
    • Probably not this one, but I always have fun with these. I doubt the community is big enough to sustain this currently.
  • Art collaboration of some kind?
    • Also probably not, but if the majority of our userbase just coincidentally happens to be artists this would be fun. Slightly more plausible than Beehaw Sings because there are many mediums of art.

If you are interested in participating in some kind of event, please comment! This is also doubling as a "are people actually interested in this" post.

If you have any ideas for more types of events we could do, please share them! I'll add the ones I could feasibly run to the list.

far right group advocates for website that caters to far right groups

not even remotely a surprise to me, beyond I guess the fact that the taliban would have said anything at all about it

I disagree. You need to fix your relationship with your employees and overuse of crunch. I won't buy any of your shit until horror stories stop coming out of your studio. Same deal with Blizzard, did they even fire the rape guy?

So that's why RF5 is so janky? Don't get me wrong i'm playing it right now and deeply enjoying it, especially getting to see Doug and Margaret kicking around town again, but I have so many issues with this game lol.

The camera lags when you rotate 360 degrees around your character, sometimes the rocks that spawn on your field will be totally invisible until you save and reset, preventing you from tilling certain areas. I'm having some weird lighting issues too but that doesn't bother me really.

On the bright side, they give you a lot of farming room quite fast if you play through the dungeons, and they finally made it possible to be a lesbian! How cruel fate is that allowed me to not get married to Margaret in RF4... For the record, I ended up with Vishnal.

I just finished Sakuna: of Rice and Ruin.

Its one of the best farming games I've ever played, but it's also like... a real ass simulation game. You don't get to grow whatever you want, you will grow rice and you'll either like it or leave. Kept your paddy's water level too high? Mold. Didn't get rid of pests? Disease. Didn't keep enough water in on a hot day? Uh oh, water evaporated and now your rice is under watered. If the waters too cold it won't absorb nutrients right.

It's also 50 percent a action rpg platformer, but don't think you can get around doing the bare minimum in the farming just to play it: your stats are directly reliant on how good you rice farm. No level grinding through combat.

I really enjoyed it but I'm still not sure who the target demographic for this game was. How big is the overlap between "traditional rice farmers" and "action rpg enjoyers"? At any rate, I high key reccomend it if you think you could be interested in rice farming whatsoever, because the story is great too.

Rune factory 4 actually came to PC as of 2021 so you don't have to own a 3ds to play it anymore. I'm currently playing RF5, and I'm enjoying it.

Fallout: New Vegas is on the same engine and satisfies the dungeon crawl loop condition flawlessly. Additionally it's one of the better written rpgs of it's type with a ton to get invested in.

Oblivion is good if you can get around it's mild clunkiness by today's standards. Morrowind is supposed to be amazing if you can get around it's clunkiness (though I've never been able to. maybe someday they'll make a remaster)

I particularly liked 5 with it's turn based tactics "liberation" mechanic. I think the first is a little clunky but 2-5 are phenomenal games.

I'd say were as likely to get advance wars as we are a Super Mario RPG remaster, but I guess you never know these days.

Another person of culture for owning GBA Snood. I'll see if I can't wrastle up my copy for a picture at some point, im pretty sure i know what drawer it's in.

If it was too soon now then it was definitely too soon yesterday when people were making fun of it i'd think.
