About plans to put ads on bg3.wiki
  • I'm fine with the basic idea (even though I don't like ads), but here are some concerns that either weren't adressed or didn't have a proposed solution:

    • Logistics: How many users are there that make significant contributions to the wiki? Is it plausible to do this as a solo dev?
    • Article Quality: As mentioned in the post, there is the risk of people spamming low quality articles for money. What is the solution here? Maybe a fixed amount for bigger contributors, but who falls into that category? Again: Logistics.
    • Trust: Since it was promised there won't be ads on the wiki, people may not react positively to this announcement, which might possibly be hurting the wiki. To be fair here, the process seems to be very transparent, though a forum to discuss about this would be nice, rather than just e-mail.

  • As Karlach, can I ::: spoiler spoiler tell Gortash "Go fuck yourself" in act 3 without starting a fight (when he proposes hid deal to you) :::? I really want to, but I also really don't want to lose my honor run.

    Steam (reverse?) in-home game streaming over unRAID. Worth the trouble?
  • New idea:

    1. Use my steam deck.
    2. It just works (???)
    3. Profit

    I'd probably have to get a docking station so I don't have to use wi-fi. Will try it when I get home.

  • Thanks, I'll probably try to play around with using a VM a bit (maybe SteamOS since that's a thing that exists?).

    But yeah, in the end getting some kind of android tv is probably the best, and in regards to input delay maybe also not the cheapest one. Also: Moonlight benchmark spreadsheet

    Stop! And proceed...
  • Don't really follow any big communities here (except for this one), just smaller ones specific to my personal interests.

  • My setup: I have a PC (Linux) that I also use for gaming, but I want to connect it to a TV that's in a different room. Now, I know I could just get something like a Shield TV or Apple TV and use Moonlight and be done, but I'd have to buy that.

    Since I also have a server that's basically right next to the TV, I was thinking I might be able to (a) stream steam games from my PC to my server (and then connect to the TV) and (b) send the input signals of my peripherals to my PC. I have two controllers, a Bluetooth one and one with a USB dongle. It would be nice to connect both, but that's really not a priority for a start.

    Asking here because I'm new to unRAID and was hoping someone has experience with game streaming and can tell me if this would work and is worth it, or whether I should just buy a dedicated device for this. In the second case, do you have recommendations?

    what hardware should I buy for storage purposes? what brands?
  • Your question is a bit all over the place.

    If you're just looking for big amounts of storage, look for refurbished HDDs (4TB, 12TB, something like that).

  • See title, for example [[Generous Patron]]. It's a long running question I had with a friend, and we kind of came to the conclusion that the answer is no because the creature doesn't yet exist when the ETB resolves.

    But I gave it some thought again because it feels so weird that so many cards have this kind of effect and supposedly it doesn't get triggered. Does anyone have a definitive answer to this? Would be great if you can refer to the official rulings.

    I'm thinking about building an Elden Ring proxy deck (after watching this video), and this Atraxa I made would be a fun proxy commander for a poison deck. Do you have any deck recommendations or tips for building a deck that's not too toxic to play against and suitable for casual commander?

    Alternatively, a -1/-1 counter deck would also be fun if that's a thing that exists (it doesn't have to be op).
