Wrath’s a lot easier to play, I’d say, because the mythic paths change things completely for your builds. It makes builds a lot more flexible, too, compared to Kingmaker/base PF1e.

WotR is one of my absolute fave games - probably because I GM Pathfinder 1e - so I’m super glad to see someone getting into it! Have fun, take your time. The only major timer is right at the beginning, and doesn’t affect too much. Make sure you recruit Daeran, Woljif, and Ember!

To be fair, people should wear their fucking headphones.

NTA. The agent could have clarified, your roommate could have checked in. Overall, agents don’t care that much. Mine’s gotten me to take pictures of the place the last few times I’ve needed to do inspections, lol.

Copyright should exist or artists and writers can’t avoid having their work stolen by much larger companies.

I think it’s worth defining a hard limit for non-person entities to own copyright. That’d mean post a certain limit, game code, artwork, music etc would be free to use. Human-owned copyright should probably be life with a minimum period of average life expectancy, with maybe provisions to allow it to cover your children too? Prevents corporations from waiting until your mum dies in an accident and immediately taking her life’s work and using it everywhere.

I’d definitely look for a new job closer. If anyone has recently left, you might be able to talk to them about it.

Namesilo. Genuinely cheap, and fantastic service every time I’ve needed to ask something. Plus: free privacy!

I’m surprised there’s no Lemmy/Kbin version of it yet. I’m missing it :(

I can indeed, or I can just change links like https://kbin.social/c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml to https://kbin.social/m/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Hilariously, neither of these work on Kbin either (probably because Kbin uses m instead of c).

It’s the sexism, honestly. I cannot tell you how many times I’ve been passed over, talked over, belittled, and mocked for being a woman in tech. I have a lot of support from half of the industry, but from the other… well. I’ve been told to make sure I stay behind the man because he should always be walking into a room first. I’ve been ignored by coworkers. I’ve been screamed at by my boss in a way he only ever did to women. I’ve been seated in a boss’s office for him to leer at me whilst lecturing me over nothing because he wanted to stare.

That, and then the pay gap… It’s unsurprising. There’s so much sexism in the industry and there’s even more for someone young trying to get into it - both with the social pressure, as you mentioned, to do something else, and the general rude bollocks of ‘girls can’t code’. I’m so proud of all the young female devs I see starting to get into tech.

Mm… it’s a bit different. I’m a female game dev working in one of my country’s bigger studios, and I’m one of two women who touches code (aka, software engineer/developer). Out of the whole company of ~300 people, there are only ~50 women. Most of those are artists, designers, QA, production, audio, HR , or other higher ups in the company.

It’s no secret that they’re desperately trying to get more female engineers on board, but there’s just a huge shortage of tech talent where I live, and a lot of women are driven off from game dev because of the reactions and treatment that are so typical of the environment. Even getting here, everything has been very male-dominated through my entire career; women in tech just aren’t as common for countless reasons.

I’d love to see statistics for some of the really big companies, actually.
