  • The revelations come later… The early game is mostly driven by an “oh that looks cool” exploration. You start seeing some puzzle pieces. Then as you explore for the sake of exploring, you find a few patterns but can’t see how they interact. This is where the game starts to get frustrating, you don’t know where to go, and the knowledge you have gained doesn’t make enough sense to be able to start piecing things together, this ms where most people get stuck. But if you persevere, then at some point you will discover a piece that connects some of the patterns you found before, and suddenly you can start exploring in a more focused fashion. Only well into this section you start experiencing the revelations.

    If you want a more tailored nudge to proceed, feel free to DM me with what you have discovered, and preferably a screenshot of your computer in “Rumor mode”

    One thing to be aware of is that you can’t just go to a location and “complete it”… It’s not like normal video games where you just grind until there’s nothing left to do in a specific spot. Many times you don’t have the necessary knowledge to complete a location, and you must go and explore elsewhere to learn how to proceed in your previous locations.

  • That diagram always annoyed me…

    The initial position come with the statement “she would shave her head”. Starting her out at a rather crazy but not very hot combination.

    Then, “she’d lose 10 pounds” where Barney draws a horizontal line to the left, which would mean that she became less crazy, but stayed equally not very hot.

    Then “stab me with a fork”, drawing a diagonal line up and to the right, which would mean that this turned her both hotter and crazier (but a bit more crazy than hot)

    Then “get a boob job”, again drawing a horizontal line to the left, meaning the stayed exactly as hot as after the fork stabbing, but somehow became much less crazy…

    So apparently:

    • losing weight makes you less crazy but doesn’t change hotness
    • stabbing people with forks is hot, but also quite crazy
    • and getting boob jobs, also makes you less crazy, but also doesn’t affect your hotness…

    I’m not here to judge anymore for thinking boob jobs make you saner… But it doesn’t quite align with the rest of Barneys views…




  • While PETG certainly has a lot more moisture problems than PLA, PLA can still give you a lot of grief if it isn’t dry enough. Stringing, oozing, uneven extrusion, and many other weird problems. I would definitely try to dry the filament…

    But this could also look a bit like over/under-extrusion… Have you tried calibrating your e-steps?
