00:08 * MaredoggieRainbows runs around barking

00:08 <Cepheid> https://i.imgur.com/t7EhGKe.png ... This seems a little... out of order.

00:09 <Ali> TL;DR

00:11 <Cepheid> Overpowered gear.

00:11 <Ali> That's way too much data on gear

00:12 <Ali> I mean WoW gear didn't have that much info on them

00:16 <Cepheid> https://i.imgur.com/jbv7OgH.png Made it better.

00:16 <Cepheid> It barely fits on the screen as a result.

00:17 <Ali> That's still a lot of data

00:19 <Cepheid> Arguably, given ARPGs, that's pretty normal.

00:19 <Cepheid> The thing about ARPGs, nowadays they tend to go beyond normal limits of difficulty you see in games.  To provide replayability, many games implement what is called a "map" system.

00:19 <Cepheid> It generates a randomly themed map, often tiered, that requires gear that pushes your stats beyond simply being max level.

00:20 <Cepheid> ARPG equivalent of a WoW raid, basically.

00:20 <Ali> Raids now suck in WOW, they're just meat grinders last I heard.

00:20 <Ali> No difficulty until they force their super ultra hard mode

00:20 <Cepheid> Another shield of perdition.  Geezus, I got like 7 of these things.

00:21 <Cepheid> That's kind of a problem with MMOs that go on for too long, etc.

00:21 <Cepheid> Basically, your gear gets so overpowered you can start soloing or doing small group runs of raids that used to take 20+ players.

00:22 <Cepheid> Case in point, the problem exists in FF14 as well.

00:22 <Ali> Well I don't know about normal raids but underleveled ones you can solo them

00:22 <Cepheid> Me, Schism and a third guild member once did a series of raids meant for an 8-man squad.  For the most part, we could have soloed them, except for the last one.  Only because it had a mechanic that guaranteed the death of at least one or two players.

00:22 <Ali> When I was 110 I think you could solo up to a 90

00:23 <Cepheid> Yerp.

00:23 <Ali> Farmed a Lvl 70 raid for years for one drop

00:23 <Ali> It never dropped in 10 years...

00:23 * Ali wanted her A'lar mount dang it.

00:23 <Cepheid> FF14 "resolved" the problem, sort of, by implementing something called "Minimum iLevel"

00:24 <Ali> So did WoW

00:24 <Ali> You can't do an instance or raid without a certain iLvl

00:24 <Cepheid> It basically levels down your gear and stats to the approximate minimum required to do the raid.  Also applies to regular dungeons.

00:24 <Cepheid> No, no.

00:24 <Cepheid> Not a "Minimum requirement"

00:24 <Ali> You mean 'max' ilvl

00:24 <Cepheid> No.  This did minimum required.

00:25 <Cepheid> It downleveled your stats and gear to the rough approximate expected stats and gear level you'd need to first start doing it.

00:25 <Cepheid> To make it into a challenge.

00:25 <Ali> They don't make raids a challenge anymore it sounds like, other than just faceplanting into the boss and hope it dies and you don't to one of the game's random gimmicks of the fight.

00:26 <Ali> Or they make it too much of an evasion fest

00:26 <Cepheid> Nah, this was more they didn't want to up-level previous raids.

00:26 <Ali> Then again, my computer can't handle raids anymore, too much flashy shit going on drops my frame rate to nothing.

00:27 <Cepheid> Of course, there's a problem with FF14's system as well.

00:27 <Cepheid> Namely, people usually don't want to waste their time doing raids that'll get them nothing.

00:28 <Cepheid> *THAT* in itself became another problem too.

00:28 <Cepheid> There's cutscenes in many dungeons and raids.

00:28 <Ali> And if one person hasn't seen it and everyone else has, they yell at the person watching it

00:28 <Ali> Or like you said, they're just in it for like ONE drop and it comes from the final boss.

00:28 <Cepheid> And all of these dungeons and raids are part of random pools you can in a group finder, and you get rewards for joining these pools once per day and so on and so on.

00:29 <Ali> I hate LFR

00:29 <Cepheid> The issue in this case arises in that there are two story-oriented dungeons in the base game.

00:29 <Cepheid> Which are part of one of those pools.

00:29 <Ali> You'll always get some AFK'r or some numbnuts who doesn't know their role.

00:30 <Cepheid> Basically what started happening is veteran players would join this pool, while new players would look for a party to do one of the story dungeons.

00:30 <Cepheid> When the new players joined in, they'd watch the cutscenes.  Fine and dandy.

00:30 <Cepheid> Except it didn't pause the game for the other players.

00:30 <Ali> So they'd be running off to the next boss while the other is still at the cutscene?

00:30 <Cepheid> So you'd be watching a cutscene, then all of a sudden, the dungeon was over, because the veterans ran ahead and murdered everything.

00:31 <Ali> Or you got kicked from the group

00:31 <Cepheid> The resolution to that particular case for those two dungeons was to make the cutscenes unskippable.

00:31 <Cepheid> Which predictably had it's own problems.

00:31 <Ali> But who would want that after their 15th run thru it

00:31 <Cepheid> Namely, people stopped doing it.

00:31 <Cepheid> Can't please everyone, it seems.

00:31 <Ali> Never can, never will

00:32 <Cepheid> That said, outside of those two dungeons, for the most part, the LFG/LFR system was pretty robust and decent.

00:32 <Ali> I remember one time I got pulled into a LFR

00:32 <Ali> No clue on how the fight went

00:32 <Ali> And guess who got to be MT

00:32 <Cepheid> Players are usually good at their respective roles, because you sign up for a specific role.

00:32 <ADragonDreaming> LFR?

00:32 <Ali> Looking For Raid

00:32 <Cepheid> Looking For Raid.

00:32 <ADragonDreaming> ah

00:33 <Cepheid> Overall, FF14's pretty accomodating for group stuff.

00:33 <Cepheid> You'll rarely encounter bad groups, even in raids.

00:34 <Cepheid> Part of it is that there's lots of stuff to encourage working together, helping new players, etc, etc, etc.

00:34 <Cepheid> EXP rewards, money, currency for special gear, etc.

00:35 <Cepheid> Don't help?  Don't get the goods.

00:35 <Ali> My personal issues with MMOs now come down to two things

00:35 <Ali> 1 Money, the big hold back

00:35 <Cepheid> One of the most interesting things FF14 revealed to me is that players want items for two separate reasons.

00:35 <Ali> 2. I'm super shy and prefer to go alone.  Though once you hit cap the options lessen and it becomes boring fast.

00:36 <Cepheid> Stats, and appearances.

00:36 <Cepheid> People will continue to do old dungeons if they're looking for a piece of gear that lets them make their *CURRENT* gear look like something else.

00:36 <Ali> Cause at cap its down to raids and if you're not in a guild, LFR is pretty useless after a certain point

00:36 <Ali> Last Guild I was in....god I don't want to talk about it..

00:36 <Cepheid> It's almost on par with desire for gear for stats, practically.  It's distressing that people would put so much effort into their appearance in an MMO.

00:37 <Cepheid> And it's not even about super-flashy stuff, either.

00:37 <Cepheid> It's literally plain attire, a lot of it.

00:37 <Cepheid> Like players wearing a freakin' tuxedo.

00:37 <Ali> Gotta have dat RP gear

00:39 <Cepheid> This is one reason why games like Path of Exile continues to make money despite being free, and pretty much offering nothing(outside of extra stash tabs and *THAT'S IT*) that is "pay to win."

00:39 <Cepheid> They make all of their money off of cosmetic items.

00:40 <Cepheid> People don't just want power in games.  They also want to look snazzy.

00:40 <Ali> And while we'll never get away from the Pay for stuff platform

00:40 <Ali> why we will*

00:40 <Ali> God I can't type today.

00:41 <Cepheid> Honestly, I'd personally prefer the "pay for cosmetics" approach to funding an MMO.

00:42 <Cepheid> The concept clearly works.  There's a number of games out there that do it.  And not in the loot box manner, either.

00:42 <Cepheid> Whoever came up with the loot box for random cosmetics idea should be dragged out into the street and shot.

00:43 <Cepheid> They're hedging on how gambling can be addictive with that approach.

00:43 <Ali> Or just lootboxes in general

00:43 <Ali> Eeyup

00:43 <Ali> Did you see/hear about NBA2k20 Cepheid?

00:43 <Schism> By the way, Cepheid, do you hate Nicalis yet?

00:44 <Cepheid> I've heard stories, Ali.  And Schism, no.  Not yet, why would I?  What did they do?

00:45 <Ali> "They added a basketball simulator to my gambling sim" NBA2K20

00:45 <Schism> Outside of screwing over the developers they rely upon?  There's a new story about them being incredibly sexist.

00:45 <Cepheid> Oh gods.

00:45 <Schism> I've heard that Duplex doesn't even own the rights to La*Mulana anymore.

00:47 <Cepheid> La-Mulana is Nigoro.

00:47 <Cepheid> Not Nicalis.

00:47 <Schism> I don't know if that's accurate.

00:47 <Cepheid> And last I heard, the latest "version" of the La-Mulana games is being published by NISA.

00:47 <Cepheid> Nicalis is not involved with La-Mulana, as far as I know.

00:48 <Stormspark> I saw a review that said that

00:48 <Stormspark> "Hey, why did they add this crappy basketball minigame to my casino?"

00:48 <Schism> Okay, then I'm going to not go crazier.

00:48 <Cepheid> The thing about the loot box randomization stuff that gets me?

00:49 <Schism> Sorry, Cepheid.  Lots of rumours running around.

00:49 <Schism> Loot boxen... do tell?

00:49 <Cepheid> The whole concept is intentionally targeted at people who are susceptible to gambling, or have no understanding of the concept of money.

00:49 <Ali> Of course

00:49 <Cepheid> Or, put more simply...

00:49 <Cepheid> Children.

00:49 <Schism> Yup.

00:49 <Schism> It's screwed right up.

00:49 <Ali> Easily manipulated age group

00:49 <Ali> Since they don't know better

00:50 <Ali> Or don't understand the concept yet of money

00:50 <Cepheid> If any publisher ever tried to suggest loot boxes to me.

00:50 <Cepheid> I'd immediately distance myself from them.

00:50 <Cepheid> And never do business with them again.

00:51 <Ali> So that means screw Bethesda, EA, Whoever owns the 2k series

00:51 <Ali> Ubisoft

00:51 <Ali> Basically every AAA company has done shady loot boxes

00:52 <Schism> I'm going to have to suggest that you involve a weird card, dice, or similar minigame in your own project, though, Cepheid.  One which is harmless, and only uses in-game coins.

00:52 <Cepheid> Heh.

00:52 <Cepheid> That's fine with me, and yeah, it's been done without people complaining too.

00:52 <Schism> Just for the sake of fun.  

00:52 <Ali> They're a scam, not regulated, and the ESRB and whatever the UKs system is cares nothing about restricting it.

00:52 <Cepheid> I mean, look at the Borderlands series.

00:52 <Cepheid> You can spend money at slot machines to get either rare currency or weapons.

00:52 <Ali> Like NBA2K20 got an E/3+ rating

00:53 <Ali> HOW could you allow that after watching the trailer for it

00:53 <Ali> There was so much gambling in the trailer that only an idiot would believe the 3+ rating was fair

00:53 <Schism> You gotta get 'em young.

00:54 <Schism> Once you get toddlers gambling, they're hooked for life.

00:54 <Ali> Hell Pokemon RBY's rereleases got T for Teen for the gambling

00:54 <Ali> TEEN

00:54 <Ali> For a game ment for children

00:54 <Schism> And that's a Pokemon game, yeah.

00:54 <Ali> All cause it simulated gambling with only in game money, not real money

00:55 <Ali> The rating system is as 'follows' for the ESRB

00:55 <Ali> Simulated Gambling is forced to Teen

00:55 <Ali> While any gambling with real money gets an Mature rating

00:55 <Schism> Okay, am I arguing?

00:55 <Ali> I know you're not dear

00:55 * Schism snugs the Ali.

00:55 <Ali> I'm just saying what diphead allowed that game to get away with actual real money gambling and not give it an M

00:55 <Ali> Oh right

00:56 <Schism> Yerp.

00:56 <Ali> Cause the crapheads at the top of PEGI/ESRB ARE the companies screwing with the system.

00:56 <Schism> Probably because they have a lovely contract with the NBA.

00:56 <Ali> On our game doesn't comply to the E rating?  Well just give it E anyway, we make it so we don't care.

00:56 <Schism> And NFL, etc.

00:56 <Cepheid> ... I've gotten a spectral mace, a spectral axe, a spectral CROSSBOW, a spectral GUN, a spectral shield..

00:57 <Cepheid> But no spectral long sword.

00:57 <Ali> And to make it all worse

00:57 <Ali> They're seasonal games

00:58 <Ali> So all progress is instantly lost on the next installment

00:59 <Ali> That's where they make all the money

01:00 <Ali> If you keep playing two versions, you have to buy stuff on both, and nothing carries over

01:00 <Ali> Its just free and easy money for them cause they make it look like a small price tag, but then you notice it adds up over a year.

01:00 <Ali> Like the Fallout Worst sub

01:01 <Ali> Who in their right might would pay $100 a year for a shitty Bethesda server?

01:01 <Ali> God why can't I type tonight?

01:02 <Schism> The same people who would pay $190 a year for a shitty Bethesda MMO.

01:02 <Cepheid> Gotta pay for that CEO's 9th island.

01:03 <Schism> That's all right, though.  I pay much more for FFXIV.  Though, to be sure, it's much more game.

01:08 <Cepheid> Game.  Give. Me. A. Spectral. LONG SWORD.

01:10 <Cepheid> Ah, lucky, Spectral Wares shopkeeper.  Let's see..

01:10 <Ali> I don't know how much money I dropped into WoW, but I'm probably not doing that game anymore.  Nobody to play with.

01:10 <Cepheid> One Spectral Longsword, purchased.

01:10 <Cepheid> *Three seconds later, one drops*

01:11 <Ali> Wouldn't surprise me

01:14 <Cepheid> Amazingly, that did not happen.

01:15 <Cepheid> Make the relic, store it so I don't accidentally sell it... now to sell all the garbage.

01:16 <Cepheid> Somehow, I came out with a net positive of healing potions.

01:18 <Cepheid> Hum.  Those are some nice pants.

01:45 <Cepheid> Heh, that's funny.  Rift opens, small monster climbs through.  I kill it before the animation even finishes, but the animation plays out anyways.  *THEN* the monster's corpse goes flying.

01:48 <Cepheid> Aaaand this place isn't a threat.  Level 62 max.  Least I'll get some loot to sell.

02:05 <Cepheid> That's what happened.  Three times.  I killed this SAME ENEMY three times.

11:21 <ConfusionRift> Urgh, they're doing that thing Castlevania games did. Foods and such with great descriptions, except what they do.

11:22 <ConfusionRift> I think the more obvious are the Amanita and Rotten Flesh. Kind of a duh.

11:50 <Lumindia_> '-'

11:50 <Lumindia_> That was a hella timed TF2 scam they just tried to dump on me

11:51 <Lumindia_> got a message from a 'friend' saying that they had accidentally reported me for duped items, and that I should message someone about it to clarify it was an accident

11:52 <Lumindia_> so I do. After a bit of back and forth, they want me to send a trade offer link so they can verify my items. A minute later, the trade offer comes through and it's for all the items in my backpack that are actually worth anything

11:52 <Lumindia_> along with a message saying that I had 10 minutes to accept it or my account would be deleted

11:52 <Lumindia_> Not gonna lie, they had me going for a bit, especially given recent circumstances in another game where my account got a temporary suspension of service for 'harassment and vulgarity'

11:56 <ConfusionRift> Yeah, another reason why I don't play those games.

11:56 <ConfusionRift> Anything with forms of trading systems like that often flood with scammers and phishers.

11:57 <Lumindia_> as soon as the trade offer came through, I blocked them, blocked the person that told me to message them, and reported the person that sent me the trade offer

11:58 <Lumindia_> though honestly, wouldn't have mattered to me... I don't play TF2 anymore

11:58 <Lumindia_> but I'd rather have the items to sit on so I can throw them up on the marketplace for money

12:00 <Lumindia_> but yeah, given what happened to me in XIV only YESTERDAY

12:01 <Lumindia_> figured I'd humor them for a bit, as unless I actually click on links they send me, I'm fine

12:18 <Lumindia_> my TF2 backpack is what paid for Doom Eternal

12:33 <Lumindia_> it DID make me realize I wouldn't know what to do with myself if somethingw ere to happen to my steam account

12:45 <Lumindia_> over a decade of use, a few hundred games with tens of thousands of hours collectively sunk into it

12:49 <ConfusionRift> It would infuriate me if Steam went down, and there went all the games, because they need the storefront active. Bleck. Then again... (hears a pirate bell) No, go away. (they sail away)

12:52 <ConfusionRift> I believe there's a bypass, but no idea how it works nor how to obtain it. So... pfffffttttt.

12:55 <ConfusionRift> If you have valuable items on the account... yeah. Seeing those poof is... yeeeeaaaaah.

13:05 <Lumindia_> meanwhile

13:05 <Lumindia_> https://i.imgur.com/ZTc70Nr.jpg playing modded minecraft, and have no idea how to get rid of this

13:07 * ConfusionRift grins. "Buuuurn iiiit." :>

13:08 <ConfusionRift> Also, I see someone's playing on a wide screen. :P

13:10 <Lumindia_> 21:9

13:10 <Lumindia_> Fire wouldn't completely remove it

13:10 * ConfusionRift nods.

13:10 <Lumindia_> there'd still be some floating lots

13:10 <Lumindia_> logs*

13:10 <Lumindia_> which would bug me far more than having a massive floating tree canopy above my house

13:11 <ConfusionRift> Well, you can either incorporate it with the house, or... what kind of mods do you have? Reason why I ask is because some mods added better axes that destroy on a wider area.

13:15 <Lumindia_> yeah, that's far more than the TiCon Lumber Axe can handle

13:16 <ConfusionRift> It would still do better than a regular axe.

13:17 <Lumindia_> https://i.imgur.com/f9QJ7zQ.jpg What are you? D:

13:17 <Lumindia_> It's throwing rocks at me!

13:17 * ConfusionRift hasn't messed with TConstruct in forever.

13:18 <Lumindia_> MCEternal has just over 300 mods in it

13:18 <ConfusionRift> I should have deciphered you where using TConstruct when looking at your hotbar. -_-

13:18 <Lumindia_> making it the biggest pack I've played to date

13:19 <Lumindia_> one of my least favorite things in there are the creeper varieties

13:19 <Lumindia_> the "Festive Creeper" which yeets small TNT at you

13:19 <Lumindia_> and the "Rocket Creeper", which yeets ITSELF at you

13:21 <ConfusionRift> This is a big modpack.

13:22 <Lumindia_> very much so

13:22 <Lumindia_> it also has like, half a dozen different dimension mods

13:23 <Lumindia_> Twilight Forest, The Betweenlands, The Beneath, Dimensional Doors, Rats, among a couple others

13:23 <ConfusionRift> Probably has that mod that... hmmm... I forget its name. It add dimensions one can basically create using parameters one can find in the wild.

13:24 <Lumindia_> Mystcraft isn't in here I THINK

13:24 <Lumindia_> but it does have RFTools Dimensions

13:25 <Lumindia_> https://i.imgur.com/ftzlLCF.jpg

13:26 <ConfusionRift> Hmm, Pam's is not a bad one.

13:26 <ConfusionRift> Also, HUZZAH! Thermal Expansion!

13:27 <ConfusionRift> ...it also has Mekanism...

13:27 <Lumindia_> worldgen has been changed around a bit

13:27 <Lumindia_> Osmium isn't found in the overworld, only in The Beneath now

13:27 <ConfusionRift> This thing must had been a stability nightmare.

13:28 <Lumindia_> yeah probably

13:28 <Lumindia_> it adds Dungeon Tactics, which is pretty nifty

13:28 <ConfusionRift> I see a lot of mods that don't like to play nice with others.

13:28 <Lumindia_> https://i.imgur.com/m3nIi8k.jpg also adds plants that give potion effects when you stand on them

13:28 <Lumindia_> like Barkvine, which gives you Resistance

13:30 <Cepheid> Morning.

13:30 <ConfusionRift> This is an interesting modpack.

13:30 <ConfusionRift> Hallooo.

13:37 <Lumindia_> but at least everything is clean now

13:39 <Cepheid> In the bathroom yeah, sure.

13:39 <Cepheid> My mother keeps joking about how she wants me to do her bathroom now.

13:58 <ConfusionRift> Hmmmm. The SD2SNES is dead. Might have gotten replaced by this FXPak Pro.

13:58 * ConfusionRift looks at it... hmmm.

13:59 <ConfusionRift> Unfortunately, I would have to wait regardless of it. Should keep orders to a minimum, till the whole "thing" clears out.

14:01 * ConfusionRift should have waited. He should have really waited.

21:14 <Schism> Long week so far, and it's still not over.

21:18 <ADragonDreaming> The first three months of 2020 has been the longest 10 years I've ever lived.

21:22 <Schism> "What a year, huh?" "Lemon, it's February."

21:36 <Cepheid> There are times now that I wonder, what with the lockdowns shutting down a lot of industries, the air pollution levels will drop.  Maybe not as significantly as Italy, but it will still drop.  I wonder how much of an impact that will have on my physical health.  Lung and sinus issues can be aggravated by pollution.

21:38 <Cepheid> This is partly why my parents want me to tag along to the east coast the next time they go out there.  They tend to reside at cabins/cottages next to the sea, somewhat far-ish from cities.  They think the reduced pollution, and the sea air might help.

21:39 <Cepheid> The sea air would certainly help with my sinuses.  And when I was out in the Netherlands, I found my breathing did actually improve given the environment was particularly rural compared to where I live.

21:39 <Cepheid> ...  That, and the ability to bike everywhere helped.  Exercise and all that.

21:44 <Schism> Hah.  "The randomizer might make LM2 playable."

21:47 <Cepheid> Really, the game just needs the number of enemies reduced, and to be patched to stop the pinballing.

22:29 <Cepheid> ...?  How many seals were there in LM2?

22:29 <Cepheid> Origin, Birth, Life and Death, right?

22:31 <Schism> Looks like 'yes, with a but'.

22:31 <Schism> There was an unimplemented Rebirth Sigil.

22:32 <Cepheid> Yeah.

22:32 <Cepheid> I just found that.

22:35 <Schism> Haaah.  Yeah, the media is totally unfair by asking someone questions requiring a straight yes or no answer.

22:35 * Schism desks.

22:35 * Ali flops over Schism

22:36 <Cepheid> Yeah, looks like the game has it's own little scripting language.  MojiScript.

22:38 *** Joins: DataByte (DataByteBro@Pony-ehb7et.e8tt.q24m.0242.2601.IP)

22:38 <Cepheid> I'm not gonna investigate any further, though.  Was just curious if I could decompile the game's basic code.

22:38 <Cepheid> I'm gonna lay back down now.  I am not feeling too great

22:39 <Schism> Good idea.  Rest well, Cephy.

22:41 *** Quits: DBB (DataByteBro@Pony-ot0k8l.e8tt.q24m.0242.2601.IP) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

22:42 <Cepheid> Stating up.  Just laying down.  Ow.

22:54 <Ali> That can be taken so out of contex

22:56 <PinkieShy> Took a unwanted nap earlier >_>

22:57 <PinkieShy> Just woke from it about an hour ago.. I didn't want to sleep I wanted to play a game but my body wanted to rest i guess.. :P

23:01 * PinkieShy Boops Ali

23:01 * Ali squeaks

23:02 <Ali> Game?  What's that?

23:04 <PinkieShy> Speaking of Boops my Nephew picked up that habit.. IDK if i said it here last night or not XD

23:05 <PinkieShy> When he saw me he kept booping my nose and saying 'boop' :D

23:05 <Cepheid> Ali, look more closely at the keyboard in that image.

23:07 <Ali> Why are there two q's on that keyboard

23:08 <Cepheid> https://i.imgur.com/KIXzEhM.gifv

23:08 <Cepheid> Multiple Qs, not any recognizable layout..

23:11 * Ali rolls around, games sound fun but she also doesn't want to be alones either.

23:12 <Cepheid> https://v.redd.it/66cv83pl9op41

23:13 <Cepheid> https://v.redd.it/lylt057etmp41

23:14 <Cepheid> That's it for cute for now I think.

23:19 <Cepheid> https://v.redd.it/ltb4c4ycr3p41

23:21 <Ali> Odd, according to websites, my PC should be able to run Cities Skylines, but it can't.  It has massive stuttering issues.

23:23 <PinkieShy> On my old laptop websites said i could do minecraft back then.. I couldn't really at all

23:24 <PinkieShy> I did try the free trial and the game just lagged to the point i had to reboot the whole PC.

23:24 <PinkieShy> Glad i can do minecraft on this one though :P

23:30 <Ali> Minecraft isn't something I can do alone

23:30 <Ali> Its a sandbox game, and my creativity is that of a muddy creek

23:32 <PinkieShy> Same

23:32 <PinkieShy> I did build a roller coaster my first time in minecraft though.

23:32 <Cepheid> I just realized Sphynx cats have no whiskers.

23:32 <PinkieShy> It did seem boring though compared to what others have built >_>
