02:48 <Cepheid> By the way, if you have a CSM module function in your UEFI, I advise against disabling it.
02:49 <Cepheid> Even if it's not being used.
02:49 <Cepheid> I've been having troubles associated with my video cards in which, if the displays are turned off, then after the POST, when I turn the displays on, I'll get a "no signal" error.
02:49 <Cepheid> Until a video change occurs, that is./
02:50 <Cepheid> Turns out, the cause has to do with the CSM module. I turned it off as I wasn't gonna be using legacy, non-UEFI operating systems. Might as well save a bit of boot time.
02:50 <Cepheid> Apparently, this causes my video cards to malfunction.
02:54 <Schism> Hmmm. Good to know, thanks. o.o

05:42 <Cepheid> That's Koishi, so...
05:42 <Cepheid> Subterranean Animism, I think.
05:43 <Cepheid> Especially given the opening, which shows part of minusT's previous work, Subterranean Stars.
05:43 <ConfusionRift> Oh, the one after the last one I played... i think.
05:46 <Cepheid> What was the last thing you remember from the last one you played?
05:47 <ConfusionRift> Oh wait... nope, I was waaaay behind.
05:47 <Cepheid> Yeah, Subterranean Animism is like, TH11 I think.

07:07 <Cepheid> Nexus is a weird game. Interesting, but weird.
07:07 <Cepheid> It's a connecting game, of sorts.
07:08 <Cepheid> Apparently, it connects the worlds of all previous games.
07:08 <Cepheid> Which makes about as much sense as anything else, given the nature of some of the games in the series.
07:09 <Cepheid> It's also apparently the last game that will appear on the 3DS. While Atlus hasn't announced further games, they have suggested it is the end of the series on the 3DS.
07:09 <Cepheid> So there will be no more EO games on the 3DS. If the series continues, it'll be on a new platform.

07:14 <Cepheid> What happens if a kid or someone's pet cat, leashed or no, eats one?
07:14 <ConfusionRift> Why would they even consider that?!
07:15 <Cepheid> Because apparently cats are killing wildlife at an alarming rate.

07:18 <ConfusionRift> I don't think there's the such. Yes, there are things cats can't tolerate or are toxic to them, but I highly doubt they came up with that sort of hindsight.

08:17 <Cepheid> Also, fun fact. The Japanese name of the game is "Labyrinth of the World Tree" or "Labyrinth of Yggdrasil"
08:17 <Cepheid> Though I think the former sounds cooler.
08:18 <ConfusionRift> For a 3DS title, this is pretty good.
08:18 <Cepheid> Atlus really abused the sound engine with the 3DS.
08:19 <Cepheid> It's a remake of a track from Etrian Odyssey 3.
08:19 <Cepheid> Namely, the Stratum Boss theme.
08:19 <Cepheid> !link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=14U64jWO85s The original.

08:20 <Cepheid> I have to admit though, listening to these songs is mildly distracting.

08:22 <ConfusionRift> Woah, you can hear how some instruments struggle, it's pretty crowded. Still, really good. I also recognize those instruments. :P
08:24 <ConfusionRift> But yeah, the 3DS can't run these, so they had to cut and change some of the composition.
08:29 <Cepheid> Hmm?
08:30 <ConfusionRift> Just saying, it sounds a bit mute in comparison with the original, but it's still really good.
08:31 <Cepheid> The "new" version is actually more complex than the author intended.

08:36 <ConfusionRift> Ooooh.
08:37 <Cepheid> That said, it seems that EO3 is a favourite of the composer.
08:38 <Cepheid> Hoist the Sword and Pride in the Heart regularly appears throughout the series afterwards. As does The End of Raging Waves.
08:38 <Cepheid> I think they're the only songs that can even remotely compare to one particular track that is well-known through the *ENTIRE* series.
08:39 <Cepheid> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhPNJ_jSv-Q If you hear this song, you're boned.
08:39 <Cepheid> As far as I know, it is also the only song that has been replicated in some form in every game.
08:51 <ConfusionRift> Huh. It's pretty good.
08:52 * ConfusionRift decides instead of working on small portions of the map, to just make it a large map.
08:55 <Cepheid> Heh.
08:55 <Cepheid> Does RPG Maker support unlimited maps?
08:56 * ConfusionRift shrugs.
08:56 <ConfusionRift> Gonna check.
08:56 <Cepheid> Nowadays, it's not really a difficult thing to implement. Heck, I can do it.
08:57 <Cepheid> Quadtrees, yo.
08:57 <ConfusionRift> 999 maps.
08:57 <Cepheid> Not quite what I meant.
08:57 <Cepheid> Unlimited maps are maps that go off indefinitely in each direction. With no restriction to size.

09:05 <Cepheid> I'd like to get something done.
09:05 <Cepheid> But yer making it impossibly hard to do so.
09:06 <ConfusionRift> Unfortunately, you won't be able to use the native editor for the map, otherwise it will attempt to crop it back down to 256x256 and destroy the rest.
09:08 <ConfusionRift> Either way, there's the map looping option, which was a classic trick in some of the old RPG maps.

10:24 <Cepheid> Enemies that bind like mad... *Grabs proper bind resists for everyone*
10:26 <RazorSharpFang> Is bind similar to grounded, rooted, immobilised? (disables movement actions)
10:26 <Cepheid> Basically.
10:26 <Cepheid> There's three fours, Head Bind, Arm Bind, Feet Bind.
10:27 <Cepheid> Special attacks, spells, etc, are associated with one of those three areas.
10:28 <Cepheid> Basically, if one part is sealed off, any special abilities involving that part are also sealed off.
10:33 <Cepheid> Hum. Mercy Blade as a reward. Instakill chance weapon.
10:36 <Cepheid> Right, I've killed one superboss.
10:39 <Cepheid> ...
10:39 <Cepheid> Holy GEEZUS hells alive!
10:39 <Cepheid> The Dryad just wiped out 5 of 6 members in one attack. o3o
10:41 <Cepheid> Right, I think that's an elemental attack, so I need to figure out *WHAT* element, and build up resistance.
10:42 <Cepheid> Okay, one, that first attack is ********. Secondly, Earth's Heal is an unfair move.
10:42 <Cepheid> It fully restores the boss' health(~22,000) and buffs it.
10:48 <Cepheid> That's the trick. Incredibly susceptible to binding attacks.
10:49 <Cepheid> ...
10:49 <Cepheid> I can't stop it from changing forms?
10:50 <Cepheid> Oh, one of those moves. Gotta beat her out of the form.
10:51 <Cepheid> Bah.
10:56 <Cepheid> ... I could just like, cheapen it altogether and just Necromancer Wraiths.
10:56 <Cepheid> With the right setup, a necromancer can dish out 9999 damage.
10:56 <Cepheid> But that feels like cheating.
11:01 <Cepheid> So then, I need a class with excellent binding capabilities. Possibly combined with a skill that weakens resistance to binding on the enemy.
11:07 <Cepheid> Pugilist with Barrage Brawler has access to all binds, with a status attack up skill that improves bind affliction rate. There's also Clinch, which apparently can cause a single character to apply all 3 binds to a single target. But it also binds the character.
11:11 <Cepheid> Necromancer would combine well. Has a skill that reduces resistances to binds. So, hmm..
11:11 <Cepheid> I need a pugilist and a necromancer, judging from things.

12:16 * Cepheid pollutes the world. Spawns 2,000,000,000 units of it on his spawnpoint.
12:18 * Schism wakes up after 8 hours. "Yes, that was a 2-hour nap." Grumbles.
12:24 <Cepheid> For those wondering, the trees really do not like when I spawn 2 billion pollution.
12:24 <Cepheid> Most of them immediately die within 15 seconds.
12:24 <Schism> At least they get rid of some of the pollution in so doing!
12:25 <Cepheid> Heh.
12:25 <Cepheid> Not enough for it to matter.
12:25 <Cepheid> The evolution factor jumps straight to 100%.
12:25 <Schism> Yup.
12:26 <Cepheid> As for why I was doing it, I was checking out Rampant's stuff.
12:28 <Cepheid> Long story short, don't spawn 2 billion pollution.
12:29 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, I'll need a lot of time to tweak RSO. It's a pain in the rear to get right. I want a rail world with extreme distances.
12:29 *** Quits: ADragonDreaming (IceChat9@Pony-tpdjag.livnmi.sbcglobal.net) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
12:29 <Cepheid> Upside, you can outright disable bugs with RSO.
12:30 <Schism> That is indeed helpful.
12:31 <Cepheid> Once I find the sweet spot for what I want, I'ma create a second server using the RSO settings that distances everything considerably.
12:31 <Cepheid> Trains will be needed, by far.
12:31 <Schism> You mean spending 50,000 units of iron on yellow belts won't be plausible?
12:32 <Cepheid> No.
12:32 <Cepheid> I mean, if you want to try, sure.
12:33 <Schism> I joke, I joke.
12:34 <RazorSharpFang> To be fair, with enough belts, you can match a train for throughput.
12:36 <Cepheid> "a train"
12:36 <Cepheid> If you design the rail system well enough, you can use multiple trains.
12:36 <Schism> Quite.
12:51 <RazorSharpFang> Double the quantity of belts for two trains. :3
12:57 * Cepheid just outright removes all belts.
13:08 * Filly_Nightmares suckles on Schism nosie
13:10 * Schism offers more of these sweet lemony cranberry bars!
13:14 <Cepheid> Funny thing is, if I removed the belts, Razor still wouldn't use trains I bet. He'd just use long trails of inserters.
13:16 <RazorSharpFang> Cepheid, I'm actually a fan of transitioning to trains immediately as soon as they're unlocked, having dedicated factories per-component, so you have trains of gears, trains of circuitry etc.
13:16 <Cepheid> Mm.
13:17 <Cepheid> Really the biggest problem is that on multiplayer, the buildup to rockets just doesn't last long. Also, biters get trivial after a point.
13:17 <Cepheid> That's why I like Rampant, and constantly trying to tweak settings.
13:19 <RazorSharpFang> Rampant can be a problem if expansion is on.
13:20 <Cepheid> Mm.
13:20 <Cepheid> If I do Rampant + RSO, I'm also gonna make it a marathon game.
13:25 <Cepheid> However, in the meantime I'd prefer something more... Automated, right now. *Pulls up Oxygen Not Included*
13:26 <RazorSharpFang> Now I want to make a hyper-big 0.17 factorio game map, where I transition to trains super fast.
13:26 <Cepheid> Hmm. +4 Cooking, +4 Farming, Early Bird...
13:26 <Cepheid> That's a Schism.
13:27 <Cepheid> +4 Learning, +7(!) Strength. I'll take that one.
13:27 <Cepheid> +3 Digging, Pacifist. Razor.
13:28 <Cepheid> Water up above, below. Nice chunk of copper to the left. Hmm. Not bad.
13:32 * Schism hmms.
13:32 <Schism> Oxygen Not Included?
13:32 <Cepheid> Yep.
13:35 <Cepheid> Cepheid's a busy bee. Cleaning up all the stuff left behind from mining.
13:35 <Cepheid> This place is gonna be clean. CLEAN.
13:37 <Schism> Felix Unger, eh?
13:40 <Cepheid> Hmm?
13:43 <Schism> Ah, the OCD gentleman from The Odd Couple.
13:45 <Cepheid> Mmm. Microbes.
13:45 <Cepheid> Mmm, a farmer.
13:45 <Cepheid> That means Schism can be dedicated to microbe mushing.
13:46 <Cepheid> Our new inhabitant, until I can decide on a dupe to name the dupe after, is Meeps.
13:49 <Schism> Hm. Flooding all across Ottawa and Quebec.
13:51 <Cepheid> Yep.
13:52 <RazorSharpFang> Too much water and the crops will get soggy.
13:55 <Cepheid> Somehow, Razor got sick.
13:56 <Cepheid> He has recovered.
13:57 <RazorSharpFang> Speaking of sick, I fell down at work today and smashed my hand into the floor to break my fall.
13:57 <RazorSharpFang> I did that twice.
13:57 <Cepheid> ...
13:58 <RazorSharpFang> I didn't understand how it happened the first time, but I figured it out on the second.
13:58 <Cepheid> We're all suffocating.
13:59 <Cepheid> Oh gods, now Schism's sick.
14:00 * Schism coughs.
14:00 * Cepheid quarantines Schism.

14:16 <Cepheid> It's from unrefrigerated food. And the Microbe Mush.

14:35 <Cepheid> Yeah Schism, you mush that... what the hell are you making?
