Hermitcraft - Sharing our Hidden Game Gems

[@liataislibrary6667]

In my D&D group, we have three types of players when it comes to dice. We call them the dice dragon (has one to three sets that they guard with intense ferocity), the dice dwarf (collects a lot of dice but they're high-quality dice, like metal or with cool insets), and the dice goblin (QUANTITY, GIMME ALL THE SHINY MATH ROCKS). I'm a goblin. I love diving my hands into a box full of mismatched dice and rummaging through it, and hunting through my hoard for pretty little math gems to use and give people. XD Giving people choice dice from my hoard is a way to say "I like you!" Plus, you never know when you're gonna need a spare d8 or something for a spell, and I like to be the one to be able to go "I gotchu" and hand folks the die they need. For hidden gems of games, I'll always recommend Seasons After Fall, it's a lovely little puzzle platformer with painted landscapes, not too long. Against The Storm is a roguelite city builder that's nice for little 30-minute game sessions, Niche is a fun little strategy game about genetics, Islanders is a puzzle game about making cities on islands, Potion Craft is an alchemist simulator that's in development, and Coffee Talk is a soft visual novel style game about making hot drinks for magical people. For more "mainstream" games I love, Monster Hunter World is always my home game, Armello is a fun little tabletop-type game, Monster Sanctuary is a Pokemon-Metroidvania fun mix, Abzu is a lovely adventure through underwater environments, AER Memories of Old is a low-poly adventure where you can be a bird, and Dorfromantik is a relaxing game where you build landscapes out of random tiles. I'm probably losing points but they're fun games, maybe someone hasn't heard of them X3 *edit* Oh, I almost forgot! Wildermyth! It's a strategy game that plays a lot like watching a D&D campaign. Fun writing, pretty art.

[@retu3510]

Uh, thank you for the nomenclature! I'm a dice dragon. I like to have my one and only set.

[@liataislibrary6667]

@@retu3510 You're welcome! Granted, this is just the nomenclature my group uses, so I doubt it's wide-spread. X3 Our rogue reminded me of another type he's seen -- the dice witch, who is INCREDIBLY superstitious about their dice and "curses/blessings" that could be laid upon them. Like, a die that rolls too many ones needs to be kept away from the other ones and/or exorcised, or a die that rolls many crits is to be enshrined or used for crucial rolls. We all joke about cursed dice every now and then, but the dice witch is the kind who won't even let a player who consistently rolls poorly TOUCH their dice.

[@sflytal]

The dice are a flex in the same way having a fully automated factory in Minecraft is a flex.

[@vexhia6792]

You can tell Tango is new to dnd because he doesn’t see the appeal of hundreds of shiny math rocks yet

[@caltheuntitled8021]

I disagree. I’ve been playing for a few years and I still don’t see the appeal. One set of dice is enough, and you really don’t need more than 4 or 5 of each. If you need to roll more than that, you can pull up a digital roller or borrow dice from others at the table.

[@Frankysnare13]

seriously, I stopped around like 10 sets but have been gifted many more, my roomate recently celebrated set #200, I think thats maybe a tad excessive but I do love rolling all my d20's pre session to see which ones are going to be the starting line lol

[@KevinBrown-lv2fk]

more dice for replacing inevitable lost dice. saying that all i own is 1 d10 and a few d6 i stopped playing warhammer roleplay years ago

[@justcallmeness]

Tango strikes me as a minimalist kinda guy...very practical, reasons things through, and doesn't buy things that he doesn't need. I could see how it wouldn't appeal to him...but I'm over here buying mystery dice bags at every con, lol.

[@AdalizMColon]

He's not new, though, he's mentioned before he's played for years.

[@LathosZan]

I know it's probably too late, but Scar *needs* to make a good "distress signal module" head skin, get some help farming it, and encode that with the advert! It would be so cool and such a collectible too! A conversation piece for the mantle! A trophy! Edit: Or an R2!!! I'm sure you could easily make a cute lil R2 doll with a head skin to send the message with!

[@patrickamcguire8749]

I'm glad someone said "toe pick". That's an old movie reference

[@KRO-222]

Leads attaching to boats is a parity update to match Bedrock edition, just like the music disc being usable with hoppers! Fun fact - pretty much all tile entities are moveable with pistons in Bedrock, including dispensers! 100% TNT drop rate is coming to bedrock too, so legit tunnel bores are totally possible. Not on a docm77 scale I don’t think lol, but it can be done.

[@ksdragona_5583]

You think they'll add more mobs to boats to match Bedrock? The days of sailing oceans with my donkey and exploring don't quite match the experience of using a chest boat- you can't bring the items with you across continents at the speed of DONKEH.

[@FreefallPZ]

​@@ksdragona_5583they already added that parody.. to bedrock, meaning they removed horse boats n stuff from it because they "don't fit" or something. More likely that they enjoy depriving bedrock players of joy and happiness.

[@HalfInt]

Yea, that change was done intentionally. Only small enough entities fit into boat. You can drag donkeys (horses, cows, ..) behind you on a lead, though. Works just fine; the lead never breaks unless they hit an obstacle or you rocket-boost.

[@fern-evrgrn]

We just like to collect dice 😂 I like the different colors & patterns…& I’m just addicted to having a hoard of dice lol

[@LathosZan]

Dragon behavior tbh smh my head **the sound of dice rattling as I smh**

[@riuphane]

Others have said it, but i have to too. The dice collection is a hoarding thing, not a flexing thing. I have 71 sets of them, not because I need or even use them, and not to show off. I just like all the chill different patterns, colors, materials, and other aesthetic elements. Some dice I got for specific events or characters, some for special sentimental reasons, and some as gifts. Some of my favorites are my malachite set, my blood elf set, my "crystal" tumble set, and my Eldritch horror set. I normally only bring 1 or 2 sets to a game, but I have a large leather bag to hold most of them (need a bigger one). And honestly the number of times someone has needed dice, having extra on hand is always nice. I'm sure no one cares, but I wanted to make it known that we're not usually trying to stunt on others or "flex", we just like our shinies and showing them off. Usually we enjoy seeing other sets that are new or unique. But with a hobby like dice collecting, it's worth having uses for them....

[@MathewSnowie]

I can recommend "Quadrilateral Cowboy" - it's another programming-based puzzle game where you code the sequences of actions to commit heists

[@dietcheeseplease]

Just wanted to chime in and say that Journey is an incredible game and often overlooked. It is very unique in it's experience/gameplay and executes is damn near perfectly. The sound track is INCREDIBLE and adds so much depth to the game. Granted the game isn't for everyone, its relatively short (around 2 hours completion time), and has a relaxed pacing, but all if that sounds up your alley (in addition to looking it up), it is EASILY a 10/10 game, no contest.

[@Kaikaku]

Checked the current MCC lineup for next Saturday. It seems that there is an open space with the Pink Parrots. Just wanted to let you know.

[@ashleymartin9590]

I am a dice dragon in DND. I have a lot of sets because it's what I collect and because I need options when some have to go to dice jail

It took me way too long to realize Tango was talking about "Idle" games, not "Idol" games.

[@Wortigon2000]

Imagine an ender pearl cannon that can shoot through a portal to send the pearl in the nether, than a 2nd portal from nether to overworld a ginormous distance away, where the pearl can go through again. You can totally multiply the distance you can travel by an ender pearl cannon by about 8 times this way!

[@mrfahrenheit677]

Or be like Scicraft and build a massive complicated and extremely precise ender cannon in the nether to send you millions of blocks instantly all in one fell swoop

[@stelmaria8991]

Doc already has a piston bolt to shoot people to the Farlands

[@disgruntledwookie369]

Let's not forget that ender pearls can be manipulated mid flight with slime blocks and bubblevators. You could actually use redstone to redirect the pearl to whatever portal you want.

[@Wortigon2000]

@@stelmaria8991 Doc's enderpearl cannon is apparently not as accurate as one'd like to believe, as Scar didn't land in the same spot Doc did when using it. It might have some spread. Also, 30 million blocks is quite a bit more distance than what anyone would reasonably need. I'd be perfectly fine with let's say, 10-20k blocks in most cases, to feel kind of separated, and would warrant a redstone machine enderpearl cannon thingie to get back and forth between home base and everyone else. Or between farming district and home base. Whatever we want to call it/make of it.

[@Wortigon2000]

@@disgruntledwookie369 while bubblevators won't work in the nether, due to the lack of water, (unless you're like Scicraft, and somehow brought water in the nether in 1.12 without it disappearing, and it actually functioning properly) I was unaware that slim blocks worked for this too. I was under the assumption that enderpearls would take contact with a slime block as contact with a solid surface, and teleport the player there.

>:O leave me and my 8 million dice alone

Aloha Tango, you should play: Opus Magnum, you get different starting elements and need to seperate them and reconnect them in a different order but nothing can colide. You have different tools that you can use to: move, rotate, transform…… you need to program their movements to make the specific new element, it is a great puzzle game i am sure you’ll like it, in 10 to 12 hours i finished it and loved it

If you want a dice deck building game, there’s one called Astraea: six sided oracles. It’s basically slay the spire with dice. I like it, but the couple palette can mess my eyes up if I play too long.

Hearing about the struggle to find Skates is so foreign to me (especially in a metropolitan area like pheonix), I can think of 6 shops within a 10 minute drive that have an extensive selection along with experienced skate sharpeners that get get you a clean edge in less than 10 minutes.... We have bitterly cold winters though.... so yeah... This perspective coming to you from up in MN, I'm guessing the fact that usually no one can play basketball or soccer at a park from late november-late march would be equally foreign to folks in the southwest

[@Tovahan]

On the topic of lots of dnd dice, I have 30+ sets of the same boring matte grey dice with black numbers. Theres two reasons for this, I run a lot of large-scale encounters so I use the dice to represent creatures, secondly if I ever lose a dice or two I'll never know because there are 30+ others to replace them. But I only bring one or two sets when playing.

[@S_Crystal9217]

Ooh, Hidden game gems? :0 I have a few. Rusty Lake games (Tango has played their game The Past Within. They have more.), In Sound Mind (A psychological horror game, more on the level of adventure.), more that I cannot remember at the top of my head. :D Edit: Wait how did this comment load?

Dont let the GBA fool you. This game pushed every boundary, from graphics to gameplay and music and to this day remains loved fondly by literally everyone who played it. It is excellent.

[@prestonknudsen3111]

One game I would recommend is “Slay the Princess”. It’s a great digital novel style game

Planescape Torment is always worth the time. Some other titles: Dungeon Siege, Lots of the Might and Magic series that is not 3rd person, Dragon Warrior/Quest series and Breath of Fire series. Also can never have enough dice.

My hidden gem game is Reassembly, a modular spaceship building game. It’s simple but fun, at least 3 hours of entertainment imo

[@EldarsLab]

1:33:33 if you haven't figured out why items spill over yet, my theoryy would be that the items actually always have the potential to overshoot, but if the hopper is empty it will suck up the item slightly from the air thus preventing it from flying over.

I’ve been saying this for years.. Moveable tile entities & renewable sand source is the solution to TnT duping.

Maybe Tango is more into her sarcasm, which is pretty good, too.

One "Board Game" I would recommend that could be good for a Friday night stream that would not require a lot of production and that the audience could almost play along with is Dixit. A lot of fun if you have creative people to play with and can lead to a lot of humor. Would probably not want that to be your only game that stream though. Limited re-playability with the same group of people though is a downside.
