I always feel so ridiculous trying to figure out gifts for romance options in games that don't have good wikis yet.

I gave the hot carpenter woman a wooden plank I made and she was like "uhhh thanks? don't give this to me again".

@BathysphereHat yeah, hot women don't want my wood either,

[bathyspherehat@mastodon.online]

Maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree. There's a hot lady mechanic in this game. Maybe she likes uhhhhh gears?

[bathyspherehat@mastodon.online]

Women like ingots, right?

Meanwhile, the aquarium boy will NOT stop hitting on my character, who has never shown interest in him.

@BathysphereHat Which game?

[bathyspherehat@mastodon.online]

@JessTheUnstill Starsand Island.

[jesstheunstill@infosec.exchange]

@BathysphereHat cool I'll have to look at it. I'm always at least curious about that sort of game

[bathyspherehat@mastodon.online]

@JessTheUnstill This one is good, but it's very early access and still pretty janky. I highly recommend Fields of Mistria, which is also early access but hitting 1.0 pretty soon by the sound of it, and it's much more polished. Also, super cute!

@BathysphereHat I like ingots, i think everybody should like ingots.

@BathysphereHat well, think of it that way: if you’re en expert in something, what are the chances that a layman bringing you as a gift something related to your area of expertise without asking you before will bring anything actually valuable? If you have a cheese gourmet store, someone bringing you a block of processed cheese from a supermarket because they know you work with cheese barely is going to impress you, right?
