• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Please let Pillars Of Eternity's surprise turn-based mode spark a wave of turn-based updates for all other games⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  I personally enjoy real time or real time with pause more than turn based. Some turn based games are great but turn based games frequently feel like converted boardgames.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨🐙🐙🐙⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Wow, look at all these plurapodes

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨pain plant⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Nothing actually said “hot” though

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The creator of upcoming life sim Inzoi says he was "recklessly brave to even think about creating a game of this scale"⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m just reminded of the fog men in kenshi

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon fixes their games⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The biggest thing in control was the reflections iirc

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon fixes their games⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The main problem with these is giving people control of these properties without them knowing how the cameras work in real life.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon fixes their games⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, chromatic aberration when done properly is great for emulating certain cameras and art styles. Bloom is designed to make things look even brighter and it’s great if you don’t go nuts with it. Lens flares are mid but can also be used for some camera stuff. Motion blur is generally not great but that’s mainly because almost every implementation of it for games is bad.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Baldur's Gate 3 and Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 show that the future of RPGs is in games way more ambitious, weird and unexpected than anything Bethesda and Bioware have to offer⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s not bad but I personally couldn’t get into it, too much dnd.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨fuck this asshole⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So this includes trump for his support of two separate groups that have demonstrated willingness to commit genocide.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon is a gamer⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s occasionally fun to hop into for a bit but I didn’t really like what they did with the last update. Mainly cause I hate the drifter…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon is a gamer⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah I’ve never actually RPed in FF and I think I’m approaching 2k hours now… Lots of existing, it’s a chatroom with more dumbness and random adventures mixed in

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This letter from "Friends of Zion" my grandmother received today⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yep, the only “claim” people should have to land is to that where they already live, everything else is a lot more complicated. I have no problem with Jews living in Palestine, I do have a problem with genocidal Zionists claiming someone’s home, using terrorist attacks as a pretense for pushing that claim and doing far worse to a group primarily composed of people who were just living there. Sometimes I wonder what things would be like if my ancestors hadn’t spent hundreds of years drawing maps for everyone.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨No means no⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  See, I actually found OneDrive really useful with the whole integrations and coming with every Windows. The thing I don’t appreciate is how pushy they are with it. Like holy shit michaelsoft, just let people do their thing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon visits a bookstore⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, classics really don’t do it for me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are mods usually confusing as hell or am I just an idiot?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, the main reason doom can be considered more friendly is because the whole engine’s been taken apart and rebuilt by half the game industry by now

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are mods usually confusing as hell or am I just an idiot?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s more that most games aren’t made with consideration for modding, this means you can have core gameplay elements hidden in encrypted packages and modding is limited by what you can actually get access to. Sometimes the devs/publishers will actively make mods harder though. Really depends on the game, the company, how determined people are to mod it, how long the game’s been out for, the engine and probably a bunch else that I haven’t thought of right now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are mods usually confusing as hell or am I just an idiot?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Some games are super easy, press a button and it’s done (steam workshop and things like that), most games are pretty easy but it varies (drag and drop some files to a specific place, maybe do a load order) and then there’s the games that aren’t made in a mood friendly way and require a 50 step ritual to add a minor graphics update that probably won’t work the first 3 times because you forgot to add a patch on step 7b. Mass effect is definitely not a game designed to be modded, bg3 hasn’t had full official mod support that long afaik so some stuff is likely still hacky

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A totally normal figure of cancer signaling pathways⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I just want to see the tiny cars

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Potatoes ftw⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Btw if you haven’t seen this guy before, he’s a Ukrainian youtuber called super sus and he does some interesting urban exploration. Not as much old soviet stuff these days for some reason but still going.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I don't know where I'm going to keep them all⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Doesn’t have the book smell, I think it’s part of my OCD but I’m very heavily invested in the smell of books

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨and we thought our thing with beans was bad⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My main problem is when people are aggressively trying to make me feel guilty about just living.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Astro Bot wins Game of the Year at The Game Awards 2024⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I know it’s a game journalism circlejerk so I shouldn’t have expectations but I’m still disappointed by this year’s choices overall.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨As a human, here is my human take on unions⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The co-op is also one of these, surprisingly

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon takes the horsepill⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Operating? While Intoxicated

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon downloads free fps⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Windows?

  I wish it was a Wendy’s then at least there’d be some food

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Launches⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You leave earth orbit into a solar orbit that is slightly shifted depending on which direction you were facing when you left earth’s orbit

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Launches⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Orbital decay isn’t just friction from particles, you also have imperfections in the orbit and other objects influencing the eccentricity over time. The moon has gravity too for instance.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Launches⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, in space there’s nothing to push against so all turning the sail would do would be presenting a smaller surface to be pushed directly away from the sun

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Launches⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  And if you want more complicated orbital mechanics there’s a ksp mod: Principia which adds n-body orbital mechanics over ksp’s relatively simple patched conic orbital simulation.
