I was in a game where we all played kobolds and lived in a old mine, except during a winter food raid on the local gnomes we managed to break into the mayor’s house and steal the treasury. When they demanded we return the safe we swapped the gold for lead, then they sent adventurers who we bribed with a gold bar each and the knowledge they had been lied to about the number of kobolds they had to fight.
In the end we ended up bloodlessly annexing the gnomes and putting them under “oppressive” restrictions and tax burden that ended up better than before we took over accidentally exposed former mayor’s massive embezzlement (In character we still don’t understand what he did wrong, we see it as dragon behavior) which started a pattern. We would scheme and plan evil things but end up being a net good for the area and because our party face was adorable as a sack of kittens no one noticed that both of the planners are evil as fuck


I have not had that experience no… My family bred and trained dogs for 3 generations, mostly sled dogs and k9 for the local cops (this was the 50s and Alaska) and more recently we raised pythons, along with rats to feed them. Breeders graduated to pet and got cushy retirements in the giant birdcage we set up.


A lot of little mammals are this way, pet rats for example

The gold isn’t there to conduct anything, it’s there to prevent corrosion, gold doesn’t rust or tarnish.

Gold plated connections have a point, it prevents corrosion extending the life of the cable. Whether you think it worth that price is another thing entirely.

Which is a form of value in itself

Did you consider the soft factor of convenience? That has value too

I didn’t say he was bad at non villain roles or didn’t take them, it’s just he’s so good at villains people forget the other roles

It’s overlooked because he doesn’t play a villain, Curry is at his best as the bad guy


What math are you basing 10% off of? Because that’s grossly undervalues the service Valve provides between a store, community hub, unintrusive optional DRM, modding platform and more


That’s Gabes money, not Valve’s and you know it
