Low humanity's purpose is to reward players for being on-theme (you're largely immune to day to day guilt over being a vampire) and high humanity exists to challenge players who want to play against theme (it is hard to be good in the World of Darkness), so this seems like a pretty bonkers decision.

the whole POINT of the humanity track is that there is one clearly undesirable state that you can easily slide into - low humanity - and one desirable state that is incredibly hard to maintain - high humanity. you CANNOT be like "oh those are both equally bad you must attain balance"

had a gander at the 6th edition Vampire the Masquerade alpha rules and im very excited for the full version to drop so people can continue to argue if v20 or v5 are the correct version of it to play

I decided the graphics for Z level transitions (e.g. ramps) weren't good enough, so I started fixing that up and these little 32x32 pixel tiles somehow became maybe the most labor intensive thing I can ever remember doing for Cataclysm. What the hell

Dark Heresy is really good. So far it isn't as funny as Rogue Trader, but I streamed for 3 hours and there were no battles, just intrigue and investigation. For an Owlcat game that is unprecedented, in RT you have to slog through 6 identical nurgling encounters every time you go anywhere.

There's a type of parasocial attachment that doesn't get talked about where people latch on to a game (Star Citizen and Zomboid are two great examples) and hook up their dopamine system to whether they feel the devs are or are not making the game specifically for them. Bethesda gets it a lot, too.
