Yeah, classics really don’t do it for me.
- Comment on Are mods usually confusing as hell or am I just an idiot? 2 weeks 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? 2 weeks 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? 2 weeks 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

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.

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 2 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 2 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.

The co-op is also one of these, surprisingly

I wish it was a Wendy’s then at least there’d be some food
- Comment on Launches 5 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 5 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 5 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 5 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.

I prefer palette because tastes are kinda like colours.
- Comment on Is "disk" just a different spelling of "disc" or are they actually different words? 5 months ago:
I always thought discs were optical and disks were magnetic
- Comment on That's a big burger 5 months ago:
A lot of conspiracy theories seem to hinge on the idea that anyone engaging in the theory somehow has access to information that most people don’t, at least that’s my theory.
- Comment on FINAL FANTASY XVI available on PC September 17th 5 months ago:
14, so yeah I guess that’s more of an exception. I did play a tiny bit of 13 but hated the combat
- Comment on FINAL FANTASY XVI available on PC September 17th 5 months ago:
Do you normally control more than one character then? I’ve only ever controlled one character in the ff I’ve played so that sounds weird.

A bullet that is not at rest relative to the point where an external force has acted upon it.
- Comment on IQ Test 6 months ago:
Yeah I’d suggest looking at frames of reference and how time dilation keeps the speed of light constant or in other words special relativity.
- Comment on Anon finds a plot hole 6 months ago:
Yeah, what’s important is internal consistency, I love hard sci-fi but I also appreciate some of the more fantastical worlds like the cosmere or final fantasy 14 because they set up rules and don’t throw them away. That’s why I hate whenever people come along with arguments like “oh it’s a fantasy world so anything could happen” because that’s not how it should work.
- Comment on GTA 6 may "disappoint" players hoping for a technological "jump", says former Rockstar North tech director 6 months ago:
What surprises me is how many developers haven’t realised that you can have a game that looks good without it being insane from a technical viewpoint, a solid art style does much more for a game than graphical fidelity. That being said, more graphics isn’t a bad thing as long as it’s not the only thing.

Native UK here and I’ve never had a good reason to use stone as a unit of measurement. Kg works fine

Well it is blender

The only thing I can think of is nautical miles and knots because they’re based on arc minutes. But otherwise I have no idea
