@Terxbor *nyas* How are you today Terx?
@nyanuri
Remember I told you two days ago that I started crying from happiness because of you and BatElite? I did it again this morning.
More importantly, how are you?
@nyanuri
[robotic] Hello? Are you still there? [/robotic]
@nyanuri
Yeah. You two accepting me so much has made me so happy. It doesn't make sense, but it's still true.
(Oh, and I'm gonna try to make my reminders funny, like with that last one, where I quoted GLaDOS.)
@Terxbor masto is a great place to find acceptance 😊😊
@nyanuri
*walks between and around her legs, rubbing against them nya~* It still surprises me...
@nyanuri
*finds and bites onto a carrot and brings it to hyr*
Nya nya... nya... ny... Wait a minute, I'm not a cabbit!
@nyanuri
*transforms to catboy*
Nya *does a flamenco dance because that's what male Mi'qote do*
@Terxbor yeah I saw your character. I play FFXIV too ^^ my highest level character is a lalafell though.
@nyanuri
Nya. Mine is a Hyur. Level 50. I haven't played in a while.
@nyanuri
I did love playing the game, but augh the monthly fee. If they had a pay for non-consecutive HOURS option, I might still be playing.
@Terxbor that would be an interesting model. But yeah $15 a month is pretty steep for a vidya game.
@nyanuri
The pay-to-play era of Ragnarok Online had that option. It was I think 20 hours over six calendar months for $10.
@Terxbor Raganarok online... sounds familiar, but I don't think I've ever played it.
@nyanuri
It... Wasn't that good, in hindsight. Grind heavy even at the very beginning.
@nyanuri
In another topic, do anything cool today?
@Terxbor I've just been playing Terranigma ^^ I really like snes games
@nyanuri
I was basically raised on the 2D Nintendo era of video games. I think I mentioned I was born the same day Super Mario Bros. was released in Japan.
One game in particular, R.C. Pro-Am for the NES, triggered my eternal love of video games.
@nyanuri
Yeah. My memory claims it was the first NES game I didn't instinctually know how to play, that I HAD to read the instruction manual for. And once I figured out how, that part of my life was set.
@Terxbor i used to love reading game manuals. the more complicated the better!
@nyanuri
I love a good manual as well. I read them for all my games... but not anymore because modern manuals SUCK.
@Terxbor most physical games don't even come with manuals anymore. Probably because developers just assume their players have internet access. But board games on the other hand...
@nyanuri
Battletech's manual sucks as well... mostly because there's a bunch of them.
@nyanuri
Which reminds me... I really should design some cards for the TCGs I was designing a while back. Enough to make two decks each.
@Terxbor designing a tcg huh? are you thinking of selling it to a game company?
@nyanuri
If I did sell one, I'd know which one I'd want to sell it to... assuming they'd be willing to do it as a LCG like Netrunner. (The company, Victory Point Games, doesn't do TCGs.) The other would have to go to a video game company; the mechanics pretty much demand computerized rules enforcement.
@Terxbor netrunner is so good! And that's really cool. Do you design games for a living?
@nyanuri
I'd like to. I've wanted to since about 1990. That and game programming. I do have something kinda released on https://formedras.itch.io ... it requires an Xbox controller per player, and it needs a lot of work.
(Oh, by the way, here's a link for my favorite game from VPG: https://www.victorypointgames.com/darkest-night-second-edition.html )
@Terxbor darkest night sounds really cool. ^^ I wonder if there's a way to play games like that on the web 🤔
@nyanuri
Unfortunately, I think there aren't any games from VPG playable on a computer. They tried to do their deck-building Chess game, For The Crown, but it never got released.
