Today on 2b2t, Minecraft's oldest anarchy server:
The Melon Men discord group now has over 150 members and we have our own custom invite link!
That's pretty neat, never been a part of a discord like that, much less been in the leadership.
There's a Halloween event near spawn tomorrow, but to be honest I feel that's a massacre waiting to happen.π
Assholes will just fly in and start killing people. I hope not, but I might avoid it just in case. I'm not scared of dying, I just don't want an asshole to get the satisfaction of killing me.π€·ββοΈ

After 9 hours of travel, I have finally made it to the overworld world border on 2b2t!
Here's a couple of screenshots.
The first 2 are inside of the nether portal room and the last 2 are in the overworld of all the obsidian names and destruction around.
I will post a few more pictures in this thread.

A video game based on the Chinese novel βJourney to the Westβ is the most recent example of innovative retelling of this popular story
The game allows players to free Sun Wukong, the monkey protagonist from the popular 16th century novel βJourney to the West,β and introduces players to the complexity of Chinese religion.The Conversation
I don't like that #CallOfDuty Black Ops 6's campaign requires an always-on internet connection.
This causes issues for those of us who may want to revisit the single player campaign (which is apparently quite meaty in BO6) in the future. I replayed the Call of Duty: Infinity Warfare single player campaign multiple times because it's a fantastic campaign. I revisited it earlier this year too on my Steam Deck.
Also, with such a large install size (upwards of 300GB), how is it there's a need to still stream more stuff?
If Microsoft/Activision shutdown their servers, I guess that leaves BO6's campaign unplayable.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6's "texture streaming" requires "a continuous internet connection," even in the campaign
Activision says the 300GB install would be even bigger without the always-online requirementKaan Serin (GamesRadar+)
And my voice is gone. Spent the last hour plus playing #CallOfDuty Black Ops 6 with my son. So much fun!
Happy Friday! What do you plan to play or watch this weekend?
Our streaming schedule is attached. We have some Halloween fun for you!
Offline we're playing Metaphor: ReFantazio, Immortals Fenyx Rising, and playing new Steam demos. We're watching Peacemaker and The Legend of Vox Machina.
Sharing shooter related job openings on LinkedIn today. Not for me, but for friends at Treyarch, Raven, and Infinity Ward. Black Ops 6 just released so Microsoft / Activision will now lay off hundreds of people so Nadellaβs salary can go up another 63% next year. Fucking disgusting, and βgamersβ will still blame βdevsβ for everything.
I dunno about this one #Microsoft. Call of Duty is not a game that I would subscribe to #GamePass for. Call of Duty is a game that I play for a long while. And if you look at my Xbox, PSN and Steam playtimes, I sink a lot of time into this game.
My guess is that other Call of Duty players are the same. This is a game that people play without switching to a different game for long periods of time. This is not a game to bet GamePass on.
The economics donβt work either. $20/mon for GamePass subscription or flat payment of $70? Call of Duty is very consistent with a release per year. If I subscribed to GamePass for a year, itβs $240 vs $70 flat payment to own the game.
GamePass is an all you can eat buffet of gaming. It works for testing games and/or playing smaller games. Big releases like Call of Duty, maybe not.

I just realized something awesome has been happening for the past few years on 2b2t, Minecraft's oldest anarchy server.
The LGBTQ+ community and allies have seemingly taken over the server and pretty much shut down any kind of transphobia by just ignoring them or griefing their bases. I love it. Toxicity always gets shut down by positivity and The Melon Men are helping to prove that!
Even 2b2t's most famous griefer, Popbob is now trans and left the server in 2020 seemingly because of the trans hate...maybe she'll be back at some point.π€
So, with my absolute obsession with the 2b2t Minecraft server lately and my neverending love for AI, I decided to make a Melon Man themed song dedicated to my group and our goals on the server.
It's pretty damn good!π

I would have played a Halo Battle Royale mode a lot! Sad itβll never see the light of day.

Morning Folks! This one is another one of my weekend recap smorgasbord-type posts as I talk about the launch of #Diablo4 Vessel of Hatred this evening, some #Minecraft nonsense, more attempts at attaching to #Soulframe, and being grumpers towards #Nintendo about them systematically shutting down legit Switch emulators and pushing that scene underground.
