Hi Kinak! Hope your February is going better than your January! It doesn't seem like it could be possible, but you've answered over 2000 questions about Metroplexity on the podcast! Thanks for all the vague vague hints.
Christmas followup! Any way to influence if we build tiny or huge snowmen from the hipsters?
For the dusty clipboard/orbital watch/hospital pants, you've said that most remaining undiscovered stuff comes from interactions between the three items. Is there anything there that needs to be done on the same day? Like, if you saved the princess today, then something different could happen in the clipboard? As opposed to the princess's blossom interacting with something in the clipboard.
I have a feeling there is a lot we are missing from the Classic Writing Desk. Trying various combinations of effects, I still keep getting "It feels too early to work on this. Either that or your well has run dry.". I believe only a single time Arkaim was able to get a different result and I did not have any success when I tried to replicate. Any vague hints?
The Speculative Fiction effect hints that neural bridges are a relatively new advancement in technology. What's the history there?
Is there a Barista skill? Can we hack the Lattes! Personal Latte database?
I've filled out nearly all the stats of my Opponents Stat Table except for Evasion Power, because that is a real pain to investigate. Are there any other techniques or methods to check opponent's Evasion Power?
While on the Slags Communication quest, I can't seem to get any drone antennas from hacking and crashing the delivery drones on the shoreline. Do those interact?
Thanks for the cooking update!
- What is your favourite breakfast?
- No cheese omelette?
- There seem to be classes of items that are all functionally equivalent - apples, fish, mushrooms, etc. Did you consider any alternative crafting interfaces here or was it just easier to make each recipe individually?
There are no known ways of learning opponent IDs and the alternative-forms of technique IDs. Was that just a by-product of how things were coded? Do you think there will ever be a way to learn those? (It would be a spader's dream, even if it were difficult to find!)
We've only found 4 "filler" techniques - are we missing a bunch more?
Does Poltergeist Spark interact with the Pile of Secrets or anything else in Oldtown or Downtown?
Judging by Demonslaying Blade, why does Matsuo think of robots as demons?
Is there anything special with the Annoying Headache effect? Can you get it from anywhere other than peacefully traversing the Fang hideout? It makes me suspicious of hidden things.
Brutality unopposed is known to enhance at least 3 other techniques. Is there a general class of "beating techniques" or is that special to unopposed Brutality?
The description of the Unshielded Jumpjet from the Hammer says: "This used to be part of a cybernetic upgrade, but now it's just a rocket that some crazy person could attach to themselves". Can we craft or acquire that cyberware?
