- i've decided that since my goal with this game is to entrust myself to the RTP, I'm going to use the default stat growths and such for characters too. this is terrifying. mp grows from like 80 to 1200. what am i supposed to do with that....
- option 1: mixing % + flat costs. this gives opportunities for mp gear to have use but in a very mathy and mmo-style way. not the goal here option 2: inflict silence a lot. im still playing with silence quadrupling mp costs. i think this would make people ragequit
- option 3: huge spell tier jumps. like if fire is 8 mp for 20 damage, fira is 24 mp for 30 damage. not too crazy -- games like trails do it, but i think it feels odd to the player. also harder to judge for me since my spells will largely not just be fire fira firaga lol (a bit though, for the vibe)

View full threadoption 6: halve the rtp growth caps for mp to reduce the overall mp range and thus scaling requirements. i will almost certainly do this one if i dont come up with anything more elegant

- oh totally forgot to mention. while there is a randomly generated loot drop that applies to weapon mods, the set gearing in this game is tied to your factory and (for me so far) not random. you just spend your factory-made crafting mats in a gear menu to equip your dudes with your ideal substats.
- while the pacing of the world is the biggest and most important deviation from genshin to me, i admit this is an incredibly welcome change as well lol
- ive spent a week with the Tennessee Valley Authority sim now. i actually quite like it. caveat: fuck gacha a lot of gacha, 3d or not, just copy genshin stuff down to the numbers. instead, endfield feels like its doing its own thing despite probably looking the same on the outside
- the lack of a glider or story instances makes the world connected and felt. you have to forge your path and factory success through running electrical relays around the map, including through dungeons sometimes lol seeing two points and setting up a zipline is an earned and valued reward
- while its nowhere near factorio or satisfactory, especially with infinite resources, the factory gameplay is pretty good. i like how its interwoven with world progression. you can also only get the currency to upgrade from doing factory stuff, not gacha farm bs.

- Reposted by crazeNot blowing a gasket, feeling vindicated, because what Kotick’s involvement in the Epstein files has done is demonstrate exactly how fucking right I’ve been for ten years. Oh I’m absolutely fucking disgusted, but now it’s unequivocally clear as fucking day. It was always, *always* about predation.
- hear that? thats @commandersterling.bsky.social blowing every single fucking gasket they got

- Reposted by crazeI don't know who needs to hear this, but all those "video game OST city pop/synthwave/jazz fusion remix album" you came across are AI slop. Some times you just gotta check their channels and tell yourself "no way this dude is composing hours worth of game covers in less than two weeks"
