      So how did you cook it?

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

              The photo is good example of how far AI still has to go. When you google search the image it has no idea how to distinguish the bug.

              Maybe I’ll build a screen cape for myself.

                Based on my experience in computer RPGs, those things are usually 1-2 feet long and worth 10 xp. Good grinding mobs.

                      Crafting is a neat idea and very fun if implemented well, but somehow it seems you end up mostly making a bunch of potions you never need to use. And it's always a let-down when the best sword you can craft is still a couple grades below the best artifact sword you can find.

                          I suppose assembling the artifact from pieces scattered over the realm counts as crafting, and those assembled artifacts are reliably OP.

                            I'm considering playing Witcher 3. It's old but considered one of the best cRPGs ever. Maybe Phibes has played it.

                                I played Witcher 3 on the PS4. I think it was as good an RPG as I've ever played. I've been tempted to buy it again for the PC, but it was still v. good on the console.

                                Looking forward to BG3.

                                I was only joking
