Someone should have purchased it when it went for sale

33 years old and 14 kids, now. Good God!
I think I should just put most of them in an arena and host a cultural gladiatorial festival.
hi
2 weeks until GDC :)
Seems like it's going to be a big one, too.
I'm so excited
I think we'll have a watch party again this year. That was fun.
I would expect 5.4 to be revealed at GDC, with preview 1 shipping the same day. Stable release would come some weeks after.
i feel like they know each other well
otherwise the camera man would probably act different, too
Isn't that like "5.4" and not actual 5.4
its the latest master
๐
they fixed the texture lookup UV
it stopped being broken
multithreaded everything sounds scarier than it is. But I find game thread locked stuff scarier.
well performance wise it's huge. Surprised it wasn't already multi-threaded but then a lot of the core parts of Unreal haven't changed much since 3
Only major bug fixes will get pushed from now on, so basically 5.4.
Rendering is something I'm refining my skills at currently since it's my largest struggle point as a senior dev still ๐ it never stops being hell
(It does, the debugging doesn't tho)
I stay away from anything like that. Much prefer to just to logic than low level systems
I'd love to delve deeper into ue's rendering stuff. Right now I'm starting with work with queueing render commands. I feel like I'm on the edge of a vast chasm.
Sometimes a dirty job exists and someone has to do it ๐ (one other and I made a VR Battle Royale)
That seems like "I've optimized it as far as I can, how can I dive further??"
Which is actually smart tbh
What about stuff like their "next gen landscape" tech
the trick I use to optimise stuff is never use everything you have. If you ain't pushing the boundaries then you don't need to optimise and can get away with way more :p
If it's not in yet, it won't be?
Though I don't know if it's just not on git yet.
Best way to optimize is to get better hardware 
My game costs $1800 and comes with a 4090
I'm still running a 1080ti and it plays everything upto 1440p fine at 60fps unless its RTX required. It makes me wonder how people are making games that tax a 4090
Star citizen dev logic
that is unless the game is being ran at 144hz etc
Deal
I find it amusing that Star Citizen has taken so long in development now that it's looking dated. I was checking out the latest glimpse of Squadron 42 and the facial meshes look good but the rest looks like 2020 graphics
wtf the cheapest 4090 is $2k on newegg new
Star citizen is such a joke.
Wait it's even more expensive than it cost me here lol
no takesie backsies
yeah I wanted to play Star Citizen but I just settle for X4 foundations + dlc. Much better game overall
What you do is you target a 4090 for 1080p 60fps, and then take so long developing it that that is entry level specs
Lol we'll be on the 6090 by the time SC is out of development
we will be travelling to Mars in our own ships by that time
The year 6090, not the 6090 card.
by the time you upgrade they'll have reset the numbers and you'll just be buying a 960 again
it'll be about 200x better than your current 960 tho
60 fps is bad though.
wow! my code works!
atleast that small section does! sweet!
sucks I have to continue another day tho. need to sleep ๐ฆ
do you want one bit horror?

honestly i know a bunch of the opposite
there's also another aisle on the opposite side with a whole row of "im an artist and i need a programmer" buzz lightyears. And these two groups never meet ๐
yep, weird right?
Or even worse, they meet, but actually nothing comes out.
So they back.
i lack both
my specialty is being able to market stuff
also good at writing and selling
i don't buy that statement
and the others?
i havent sold any others
2 are free to play, and still have the occasional player, and 1 has been in dev for about 3 years, with an alpha release expected in june or july
1 has suspended dev because we realized we need a LOT more financial resources to finish it
and production for a sequel for the first game has started
Just why I am in the scope of japanese phishing bit attacks
hi
you've been looking for a waifu too much
I dont even speak japanese
These are the only women that talk to you out of their own free will.
Follow me to start your journey on becoming an alpha male!
I show you how to invest in crypto, build up your body and learn how to see through females.
please just stop talking
In no time you will become an Alpha too and join our hunting club.
preferrably forever
I will report you for sexual harassment
thanks
These arent women
you can't just assume a bot's gender
I thought you had better things to do
I support you Dieter
once more, you were lying
you are a great person!
I'm not even sure you qualify as a person
ok
that sounds odd
apparently it's because otherwise the VAT becomes more complicated
it should be 135 pounds though
not euros
sounds like they need a better accountant ๐
Its a blessing to have a good one
Been suffering with random changes on vat amounts and other things
Wtf is stoppage
an amount that is taken away from the money that you are paid before you officially receive it
e.g. pension and insurance
according to google at least
I'm not independent idk
maybe they need a better frontend developer, maybe they just take the number 135 and add your local currency
yes but
why it exists
so dumb
I charge fee + VAT
then profit from expenses by reducing them from VAT
i keep more money
then stoppage comes into play
and steals my warm money
aaaaa
so
if they pay you VAT
what
isn't stoppage withholding tax?
which is like an up front payment for your taxes at the end of the year?
or am I thinking of the wrong thing
kind of but it prevents me from keeping the money in my hand
without stoppage I was able to keep VAT without giving to government
because I was able to reflect my expenses to VAT
government changed my type of company
I see
well that can change a lot
here we also have company types excluded from VAT and companies that pay VAT, but then you can deduct VAT from expenses
but laws are complicated
luckily accountants exist
i created an invoice for an insanely big company here, so for example if I create an invoice for "dieter", i.e. to an individual stoppage is not included
but for big companies i need to include stoppage
which is awful
i dont get why part
latter
small companies still included in stoppage
its about being individual vs commercial company
isn't it the fact then that the other company can get your service without VAT
but an individual can not
the VAT always needs to be paid at "the end of the line"
at least that's how it works here
company -> company = no VAT, company to end user = VAT
interesting
Windows 11's Android project was allegedly shelved due to insufficient revenue from the Microsoft Store: https://t.co/L0EQ8nkIX7 #Windows11
Microsoft Store earnings are crucial for covering the development costs of WSA.
Unlike Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), which benefitsโฆ
which makes it very fraud friendly
cause you can just make a company and buy personal stuff on it
as long as the fiscus doesn't find out
or you can justify it
Make a new company? ๐
and then make a company to manage that company
just as the government does
it's the stupid thing in outlook lol
where there's a "mail" on top of the inbox
which is an ad
happy to contribute!
I updated windows 11 and it put an AI on my task bar. Cant get rid of it lol
gameplay and narrative can be the same thing, depends on the implementation tho. Life is Strange has narrative as gameplay. But if you have a sequence of gameplay that tells a story that is also narrative based gameplay. But you can separate them into action and observation
Pinball of Duty. The war based, homoerotic pinball game.
sounds about right. But I'm just gonna leave it there until I need it. It's not like I'm worried about it spying on me. I'm already using Windows and social media
to fix this go on google and search for pet stuff, e.g. dog collars, dog food, etc. then go to amazon and do the same
you'll now get ads for dog food ๐
Been playing since months, is nice.
Tho the quick time events can be quite stressing.
And sometimes dialogues choices make no sense, but these are common issues.
hi
Is this what they mean when they say eat your own dogfood
no, only people who never had good dogfood say that
No, still in progress.
vs update for unreal devs https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/games/articles/2024/02/a-year-of-game-development-improvements-in-visual-studio-2022/
visual studio has been able to render 3d for ages lol
at least .obj I know about, idk about other formats
What are you doing here so late Dieter?
is it so late?
yes
10pm
not yet
well usually don't see you here this hours
just came back from woodworking class
oh
work in progress
was about ask what you did, but clearly got the reply already haha.
That's so cool man! ๐
I'm gonna add some planks to the 2 levels below as well
to put shoes on
and then put it in the hallway
did you see the table I made at home?
when you are done with the class you got 20 tables?
lol
no
this is final project for this year
the other table was just for fun at home
i kind of liked the home one better
yea, this one looks like it's a pita to finish properly
you got to cut straight edges and flatten the top
do they have a milling/planning machine at the workshop?
ok
I bought shit milled wood from the hobby store for my home project
I do remember a door, but don't remember the table tbh?
I never made a door lol
#lounge message here's the table
did you oil it by now?
no lol
why
haven't had time yet
ohhhh that's nice one ๐
but you plan to?
Oh right the door was once day you were asking what's the best tool for given task @proud jay
yea
and there was a door?
maybe was a random door pictuee
i guess he means the image where you clamped the wood for cutting
it looked like it was clamped to a door
could be?
this? #lounge message
omg the new Fallout tv series looks like its going to be amazing
that's how they get you
skeptical?
if you're a fallout fan, check out the trailer
luckily I'm not
aaaan done. alright, you are officially added to my list of mortal enemies
damn, I care
lol
You will have to add me too
you haven't earned it
Is this a good thing?
43 Unionized YouTube Music Employees Are Laid Off While Calling For Their City Council's Support
well that must have been awkward
Comments are saying they were actually just contractors for a third party that worked for YouTube and their contracts had expired, but like yeah hard to tell
we'll never know
ask bricklayers etc
well that's like a trade union
very different than 43 random dudes all working at the same company as contractors
in a case like this where its not industry-wide common, yeah this wouldn't give any bargaining power without a hefty legal fund
and a fat retainer
fuck thats cold though lol right in the middle of a city council meeting
a friend just accidentally booked our favorite local reggae band 74 times for a total of 159.100โฌ, what do?
enjoy a year full of reggae i guess
I guess all you have at that point is hope really
and a few more years full of debts
Sell the bookings
thats probably the highest paid reggae band in the world right now lol
but how do you pay for it if you don't give the dates
or are they gonna play 74 times in one evening
74 surprise gigs over customer lifetime
his mom just died, they show up at the funeral
lol
lol
The reggae band showing up to play music after I just recieved the news that my wife and children died horribly in a car crash
no, it was different idk ๐ค
maybe 2 or 3 more
just saturate, that's free
yeah I've heard that's a hot market rn
but no that was a terrible material editor pun
Do you guys know any alternative to Adobe Acrobat for quick signing? I can't login to the damn app
just use paint

/sigh
@timber viper I am constantly contributing to the world's population problem. Every one of my dynasty members has 14 kids minimum and even before they hit 40, said kids have sired grandkids. It's a smorgasbord of babies.
On the plus side, I did manage to get two regiments of war elephants going AND upgraded my fief to level 2 structures. I am earning 12 gold per month AND my King is completely wrapped around my finger. ๐
Sadly, the current dynast was killed by a hyena, or some such terrible creature from the forest known as an... ugh... animal, and his son just took over. Said son is a militarist, which means all those juicy bonuses from Stewardship aren't available. On the plus side, the new king CAN flatten anything he wants to the ground.
windus just check the famous faraoh who isnt cleopatra in this case
tutankhamon royal blood line caused issues to faraoh kids what died very young
Some of them died from poxes already. Others have married within the family and attained corrupted bloodlines. The important ones, such as my heirs are doing pretty well. That's all that matters. The other 13 siblings are commodities.
windus tutankhamon suffered from one one leg degrading defact because inside family what also was affecting the dead
the old thing when keep faraoh bloodline strong and get it stronger was actually opposite
Going by Crusader Kings 3's gameplay, it seems inevitable that there was inbreeding in these large royal families (possibly ALL families). I was VERY careful to avoid doing it while selling off the extra 13 babies, but somehow I ended up with a SON who is ALSO my son-in-law.
I have no clue how that could have happened, but it did.
why do I arrive at work and this monitor has a hat lol
It's your assistant chef.
Or that hat contains the hieroglyphics that'll lead you to Tutankhamun's treasure.
why your work environment is so clean
is there any chance your dynasty is gog and magog
Worse. South Indian. ๐
if my kids see this I'm done for
are they actually able to play games at 3
Around 4 basic stuff
what do you mean lol?
Lol
do you expect an office to be full of crap?
there isnt even a dust
what the fuck
who has OCD in the office
its so fucking clean
we have a cleaning crew?
they come and clean twice a week
unfortunately not applicable to my home office
it's policy to leave them, but literally no one uses them in this office space
My desk was always filthy because I was always working through when the cleaning crew was there 
all developers working in this office bring their own keyboard
3 of them even have split keyboards!
only one guy uses a full size crap membrane keyboard, but for some reason he still brings his own with him
Ok. 16 kids now. This is overdoing it a tad.
Still, that gives me two spares to manipulate my vassals' families into becoming MY families.
That probably explains how my son can also somehow be my son-in-law. ๐
cenghiz han vs windus andar
who would win?
cenghiz han merely owns 10% of the current population
interesting how his name is spelled differently in different languages
wear a lambskin good god
like in english it's Genghis Khan
in dutch it's Dzjengis Khan
german is Dschingis Khan wtf
Um, I am wearing lamellar armour.
Also, there are about 12 grandkids for each son, I think, by now.
I think his real name was Geoff
one step closer and you'll make him a Bob
You work at an abondan0onenabend office?
Hi
Bah, humbug. His real name was Santis Khan.
Some white man changed it to Santa Claus.
No.
I don't think that's english
It's obedient.
I wish she was obedient in not talking to me anymore
Did this server begin with a big bang?
sus
You are the servant to me.
Hi
windus what ide you use for C++ coding?
You are still a great guy
he dictates it to his 37 children
I practise in Visual Basic - the community edition.
I am not good, though.
obedient wasnt here it was the other
ledy gillenevier this new one looks more like bot
LIAR!
14 kids, 48 grandkids, roughly 16 great grandkids.
GET IT RIGHT! โ
Only 14? Rookie numbers

๐คท I am n00b in programming. I know you type stuff and hit compile; stuff hopefully happens.
Pro dev logic.
you might want to run your program as well if you want stuff to happen
Definitely newbie programmer. I saw no "cry" anywhere in your steps
I recently met a webdev team who only works with copilot
like illegal to use keyboard to correct?
they write comment in php and press tab 30 times or so
then ship it to client
and it works
they earn quite nice amount for โบ currrency
like able to pay for 4 programmers, and an office
including bills and tax etc
and copilot only costs 20usd
dieter so kids produce money for windus
that seems like a very fulfilling job
If you aren't programming with the windows on screen keyboard, you aren't doing it right
being rich in turkey helps you tolerate a lot
this place is hell for poor people
not for me
No. They produce alliance treaties, which produce soldiers, who then die to get me land, which then produces money.
This accuracy thing seems important.
you can get things done by gifting something innocent to a politican
its easy af
try it in europe if you can
you'd get arrested
why? because its a civilized place
bs
Ive got a bridge to sell you
depends where in europe
and how subtly you do it
corruption is rampant everywhere
some just do it more conspicuously
and some just do it openly and don't care
ok let me rephrase it
you cant make something extremely WTF with an innocent gift in europe
you cant remove 10 million usd tax debt
you cant kill someone and get away
you cant fund criminla organizations etc
you're just clearly not very good at killing people
I'm not shitting on my country, its the facts
corruption here would make you grateful about europe/usa
well I would still say it's better than Turkey in general imo
if facts makes my country shittier than it is what can I do
so what is an actual "good" country in your opinion?
also, europe is not a country
Denz go to your room
first off, scandinavian countries are europe so
putting germany and use in the same bucket is insulting.
second, I don't think they're that much "better" than western europe tbh
they have their own issues
Europe and USA still have a living, reasonable justice system
Politicans can be corrupt everywhere
Dont hit me with the "obvious" stuff
but they should be more careful elsewhere
great relevant point about periods
what kind of a kink is this
what
I have lived in Finland (which is theoretically not scandinavia, but many people consider it such) and can't say that there's really that much difference to what I'm use to in belgium
I mean the people are different that's for sure, but I wouldn't say it's a decisively better country or whatever
Every country has its porblems
that's what I said
but i heard the netherlands are quite great
in the last election the extreme right racist candidate won, can't say that there's no problems at all there
climate change is real
Kurdish one
right?
Dilan or something
lmfao dkfgsnfsdaahahaha
IJASFOAHFSDHFSDFSD
not geert
Dilan Yeลilgรถz
> be immigrant
> be politican
> your ideology is removing immigrants from NL
and Dilan said he doesn't want his party in the government
but he was from the party of the last prime minister
idk how racist they are openly tbh
but even if they are, it's peanuts compared to geert wilders
Dilan probably will make your relationships with Turkey a bit more intense
the top one is geert, the orange one is dilan
Geert on the other hand gets some support because dude is jobless enough to support opposition here 
@proud jay does the new car alert you to check the back seats once you shutdown the car to prevent from keep kids there and such? ๐
same is about to happen in belgium
we have elections this summer, and in current polls, the far right has 27% of votes
yes
strange thing to ask though
Jesus
it isn't that specific about it though, it just says "check your back seat"
I just see some one showing this on instagram
pretending like you're not a bad parent
I think this whole concept of measuring countries' ranking by the availability of food, clothing, medical services, gender equality, and per capita income is just wrong. Living essentials... pfft!
The right way is PCGPC - Per Capita Gaming PC. Countries should be ranked by how many people can afford $4500 gaming PCs on a regular basis. It's rational, scientific, and proper. raises nose haughtily
๐
I build mine for like 1.6k 6 year ago and still going strong
they showcased on a Ford, seems to be on all new cars, the last year we had a lot of cases on the news of parents leaving kids on the cars
yeah, unfortunately it happens
ON the cars or IN the cars?
The former would imply Indians, the latter just bad'uns.
why not both
Well, ON the car would simply imply an attempt to hitchhike and simultaneously have good ventillation.
The latter could be murder attempts.
Dang. Akira Toriyama passed away.
RIP.
some people also put their kid in a seat on top of the car to put something in the car
and then forget about the kid
Just use a rope and tie one leg to the window frame/handle/something.
Besides, if the rest of their body is mobile, they can practise dancing on the car's roof.
the pain of working with Android
oh right how can I forget this... can't be bothered to have my drive with the A LETTER
I'd like to hear y'all thoughts on these :))
I'm trying to set both of them fairly apart while still making sure that people remember that it's a(n alternate) continuation of our current world.
The planet has gone to shit but humanity (and other animals) have never been better.
"minimal-moderate injuries" sounds like lawyer talk
It's mostly fine as long as you literally do everything it tells you in the precise order with literally no deviation, like assembling Ikea furniture
there's still 120 people in a meeting that ended 40 min ago lol
That doesn't sound... good
shows how many people actually pay attention to the meeting lol
Yeah just the overrun makes me think it's quite the controversial one
Just open discord to see this
By the way happy woman's day you all, at least is today in here
I learnt today that i had been using event dispatchers wrong all along
pain au chocolat noises
explain
Woman Power - WOO HOO!
It was the worst of times; it was the plague of times.
It was the sickest of times; it was the deadliest of times.
Over half of my 48+ kids and grandkids died of the plague. It's a new mechanic introduced in CK3, where plagues ravage your lands. There's a lot of RNG and physician's skill rolls involved. You survive sometimes and at other times, like in this instance, you lose half your family, including YOUR HEIR and HIS HEIR APPARENT.
The whole family had only the Queen of the second dead king (the grandmother) left alive and willing to take the reigns, but with poor skills in kingdom management. However, she didn't let the dynasty down. Alone, her army faced thousands of enemy soldiers and beat them all over months of terrible warfare. Along the way she lost two more kids to the plague. Several of the MALE followers rebelled and deserted, becase, "What can a silly woman do? Boo hoo!"
After a year of fighting, the rebels have been imprisoned, terminated, and subjugated. The war is over and the ENTIRE holding of the dynasty is intact! โ The liege of the feudal lords even awarded the brave queen an entire sub-kingdom title. ๐
I just learnt that an event dispatcher can be bound to multiple events, not limited to one
yee but you still need a pointer...
unlike wished for
you cant call events and have listeners
i am still mad about that
Yes, but this changed the entire architecture i had been using to use event dispatchers
nieces ask about the game im making and then tell me i should make it in roblox and its better ๐

Ah okay, didn't know this thing was called cnc

holy shit, they're porting ghost of tsushima to PC
In other news, im rewriting my ship movement code and so far it's tiiiiiiny compared to the previous spaghetti mess
Also finished a system that can automatically group thrusters and manage their output so that the ship can travel at an optimal dV
Although taking into account all the possible edge cases is driving me crazy (for example, what if someone decides to build a ship with the thrusters completely inside the hull? How do i stop that????)
Yep. It's too expensive right now. I'll wait for a sale OR Game Pass.
Apparently I CAN play it on Playstation Plus.
๐
My God, I think this dynasty will recover after all! The plagues have subsided, the sole heir is growing well, AND the incredible debt we accumulated due to the wars and plentiful deaths is almost paid off.
DAMN! I love this game. ๐
I hope he is not so humped.
so you could've played it all along
that requires a ps4/5. the game pass equivalent of sony is playstation Now, which doesnt work in india
playstation now is the streaming thing no?
you can have PS Plus Extra or Premium
which includes a bunch of games too
I always just had the basic though
and never used it, so I cancelled
still needs a physical ps4/5
yes
i was assuming windus wanted to play on his pc
all xbox games are day 1 on pc as well
now they are
have been for the last 4-5 years
but the games before that are not on pc still
i really wish there was a channel in this server for discussing game concepts/ideas/mechanics
cause this "what if some genius decides to build a completely enclosed thruster on their ship" problem is driving me crazy
wtf
i just got my hopes up
y u lik dis laura
call it a feature
๐ฃ
"You can build reactionless drive ships in this game! 10$ extra"
problem is i dont know how to detect if the thruster is completely enclosed
woah
that
is smart
see this is why there needs to be a channel like this๐ญ
only if you put AI in it and a permanent connection to the internet and can only interact with it through an app
im pretty sure some idiot is still gonna make a maze and put the thruster inside the center but this is atleast a start, thank you
i guess i could somehow impose a path length limit?
well, yes but
you know what, youre right
dont over engineer
I've always wondered, why not just check a straight line along the thrust vector? Whether the thruster is enclosed is surely a marginal difference to when it's already obscured
i considered that, there are many many edge cases though. very common ones. what if the thruster is not enclosed but the thrust vector hits some part of the ship? like a bulging hull. sure, youll get some scorched hull but thats not an invalid design
and if you say length, that brings in a whole another can of worms
like "i put my thruster in the cargo hold with a big empty space behind it just to cheese the game"
if youre wondering why this is a problem, the thrusters can be damaged
cant damage them if they are in their own private bunker
If the thrust vector hits some part of the ship, you can usually kiss either your thrust or that part of the ship goodbye. I'm assuming a spaceship though. A normal boat would use a rudder, but I think you'd treat that as a special case.
a spaceship yes. yeah it will be bye bye but its not an invalid design given the laws of the game physics
that falls more under "stupid designs" rather than invalid ones
im mainly trying to prevent absurd builds that break the sense of immersion, i dont really care about weird and whacky builds.
For example, in starfield the enemy ships target your ship center. so people just made their ships in such a way that they had a huge hole where the center would be, thus completely making space combat trivial
from the helldivers discord lmao
@empty dune - PlayStation Plus is available on PS4 and PS5 consoles, as well as cloud streaming on PC for PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers. --
From the internet, which you can trust.
I assume terms and conditions apply, depends on the games, blah blah, but you can stream the games on PC. No need to own the console.
I am not testing it, though. Ghosts of Tsushima ALONE isn't enough to warrant signing up.
Besides, I have to salvage the broken pieces of my dynasty in Crusader Kings 3.
doesnt work here, i tried
You are n00b.

Give me your credit card details. I'll test it thoroughly.

well, there's 2 of them for a reason

its even more funny when you know the context of the ingame war situation and which map that pilot is playing on. essentially that pilot is just wasting time XD
aren't we all
DONE! โ
The dynasty has been salvaged. ๐
Time to spam some children and hopefully, have another 100 kids before the next plague.
@proud jay the dude in Renault told me they will change and order a new stereo... and I was like wait what, you mean a new computer chip?
- Yes that a new chip, a new stereo, whatever ๐
Maybe come other day and turns out they placed a CD reader there
maybe you'll get a whole new car in the end
what game is this even
Crusader Kings 3
Aka, Medieval Kids Trader
Well, I attended a feast and one of the guests there killed a courtier in the host's court.
I told her I'd turn a blind eye if she paid me 45 gold and she agreed. I got out of debt with a decent balance.
just sell more kids to settle your debt
Can't. The kids' market doesn't trade in gold, only treaties.
Will blue (top) army get to me before red (left) can intercept?
The tension is sharp enough to cut the butter.
Hi
No.
@lofty lark
thats what a bot would say
Hmm. Housewife. Bot.
IT'S THE STEPFORD WIVES!
What I never understood was they have the spice malange, they can use it to become psychic and travel through space, they can use it to evolve. Yet they never synthesised it or farmed the worms to make it, so it was only available in one place in the entire universe. I call bs on that Mr.Herbert.
I think the plot armour for that was the Fremen. They kept the secrets of the desert hidden in the... deep desert. The spice operations were mainly restricted to the northern parts of the planet, since the Fremen killed everyone who ventured south. So, the great houses never figured out how the sandworms came to be, or how the spice and the worm existed together in a harmonious cycle of death and rebirth.
That being said, I assume the Bene Gesserit on Arrakis knew about it, but the reverend mother sided with the Fremen instead of her house. I think that's the plot armour.
They blocked access because they were stashing water like Nestle.
Not bad game, reminded me a bit of the original Dune.
At least on strategy level. Tho here you can't really fly or walk in the desert yourself.
And can't terraform.
Or talk to ppl.
It breaks my heart that no one has created a sequel Dune RPG yet @cursive crypt
True that. However, they have closed the IP. They sold the license only for movies and the workaround is to make games based on movies.
Or something along the lines.
Maybe these new movies will spawn new wave, as that game up.
Come! Let us storm the Herbert estate.
Funcom are releasing Dune Awakening soon so there is that
We shall take the license for ourselves.
The papers shall flow! The IP must be freed! FOR SHAI-HULUD! โ

I don't have a lot of hope for Call of Duty online. ๐คฃ
All these MMOs basically degenerate into a big mob fest. Nice mobs in the case of guilds, but still a mob fest.
wait, lol. That a freaking mmo
Funcom make good MMOs tho. They have been doing it for 30 years successfully. And considering the amount of MMO companies that went under or were sold, they have done extraordinarily well with it
True. It's not the company I have conniptions about. It's the genre itself.
We want RPG + strategy, basically remake of the original Dune. Not MMO with lootboxes.
MMOs.... dunno. They just don't... something.
Larian, welp
๐คท
Yep
Obsidian can take that too.
I would take the old Relic studio and use them to make a dune RTS. I miss them a lot

I will hate everyone in involved in the production of the (Fallout) show if this means what I think it means.
Todd knows your true nature.
He knows you now, then, and in the future.
He will kill the dog.
You will hate him.
He will not care.
Fallout the Show, Todd praise be!
Todd is the perfect example of of getting lost in the sauce, stuck in the past.
me if he actually does that
And also like, with them calling starfield a "next generation" game. I don't see how they will ever be able to make actually great games again
Because it's super duper not a "next gen" game, in graphics, gameplay, story, anything.
I will wait until TESVI to see if they can get their act together
I never played a TES game
but
if they manage to throw their own baby under the bus...
there's no hope for Fallout 5, if it ever comes out
and that is when I will conclude that this world is not worth living in
with this kind of disconnect from reality, I just don't have any hope that they will be able to make any good games in the future. Probably would have to gut and replace the studio, at which point is it even them anymore?
Starfield isn't even a bad game, it's just a "meh" game. I don't know if that's good or bad.
Right, and they described it as their magnum opus.
Well, that is absolutely not true.
isn't that basically how todd was describing it in interviews?
TES games, Fallout 3/4 enter the field
oh I'm not saying that they didn't
but tbf they didn't
I really liked starfield. The main story wasn't anything to write home about but some of the sub-missions were really fun
it's a decent game
even calling it a "dream game" and then releasing what they did is enough to clearly show everyone that they are too far gone.
Oblivion was a dream game at the time, Fallout 3,4, Skyrim, etc.
oblivion was a pile of crap tbh. But they had some graphical elements that were beyond what was around at the time
I regret being that hyped for the thing
||but like there's a good chance I won't be here if I weren't hyped for Starfield soooooo||
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
I remember being hyped to play Oblivion, playing through the first zone and enjoying it, then realising that the mobs levelled with you and it put me right off. I don't want to stat-stick a character and then go back to the starting zone and get kill by a flea that levelled up with me
Diablo 4 suffers the same problem in that respect
I hate the leveling system
in any game
what do you mean I can't kill a level 12 enemy when I'm level 10?
I clearly have the skills but sure, just let em OHK me
awesome game design right there
well with an arpg or rpg when items and finding them is important to the gameplay, it behoves a game to destroy any necessity because no matter how much strong you get, so do the enemies. At least give a tier system where 1. if you don't have the gear to kill a mob, you can go back and farm. and 2. make enemies different enough to show difficulty in range. Its no good if you are farming the same mobs over and over and they are the same ones from area 1 but with more hp and dps to counter what items you found. I prefer the classic approach
I love Fallout 4's approach to the same system
I never felt like I couldn't defeat an enemy just because they were on the same level as me
and cue Borderlands, I got OHKed by a level 12 bandit because I was on level 10
I could clearly beat the guy
took out a significant portion of the health
and then OHK
yeah I was playing BL2 a couple of weeks ago and it sent me into a zone with a mini-boss. But it was stupid hard. Eventually a couple of people joined me and we all got killed
I played BL2 a long time ago with friends and all of us hated it
like
a lot
but then I saw recently that the entire collection was on sale for $25
the whole franchise + DLC
I felt like it was a good deal so I bought it
started playing the first BL
it was meh at first
but I started to weirdly enjoy it
IIRC there were 3 different ones lol
but I recommend you play them for some time
if you really want to see what's their deal, that is
fair enough
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
they all start off a bit dull but when the story starts progressing it gets really good. Shooter wise it's kind of average but worth it for the laughs along the way
that book is empty
where is this place irl?
The Sponza Palace (Croatian: Palaฤa Sponza; Italian: Palazzo Sponza), also called Divona (from dogana, customs), is a 16th-century palace in Dubrovnik, Croatia. Its name is derived from the Latin word "spongia", the spot where rainwater was collected.

found it ๐
I want to go go on a pilgrimage there
They built a city after a benchmark test?
May I ask why is this place exactly a benchmark test??
ok but again why this place specifically???
not familiar with them sorry
true
Guess I'm just sad that it wasn't somewhere in khiva
I love night monkey
oh boy I sure do love accidentally opening all the textures in my project instead of bulk editing them
lol

that reminds me of the time i had to fix like 100 data tables...
and i thought f it, i'll just open them all at once, little did i know what PITA it is to press the close button on the smol tabs
luckily it opened all the windows in its own window and I was able to just close it
and it didn't take as long as I thought it would to open them all
but it was like 200 textures
Hi
No.
Maybe?
South Korean scientists have created something called 'meaty rice'. They hybridised beef and rice. Cool!
Adding turmeric is easy enough. $$$
Me likes.
True.
But a lot of stuff is just in the mind.
We'll add some yellow colour and people'll be convinced.
The nutrients will appear out of thin air.
This is legit science.
Cure? God, no.
Just lots of cows and rice, please.
you could just put beef stock in the water when you cook the rice
But that wouldn't be a genetically modified, hybridised, cloned, gene-edited, alien artefact.
your idea works beautifully!!! i can now even path find to see if the engine has open access to various rooms in the ship so i can toast the atmosphere/crew XD
thank you!!!!!!!
it does not, i just didnt want to type out your tag when i could i just reply to your message XD
this is me rn with excitement
sir, i cannot afford half an F16 fighter jet
||if you really wanna know, i did the green ending the very first time i played me3, before playing me1 and 2. i did it because i had no context and the star brat's arguments sounded reasonable||
LMAO
beautiful
wait, isnt that the dlc that didnt work half the time anyway?
lol yeah, thats funny
the RTXremix is the way for many mods
it's possible on mobile discord to see the list of people in the channel?
oh once you click the magnify, nevermind
Feels like yesterday when I was shitting on genetically modified foods
Thatโs all theyโre good at nowadays, re-releasing stuff that used to be good
Fifa 2026
I cant wait to be playing the original CnC in 2036
least MS is supporting their remasters properly
Windows 95 - Remastered
whats wrong with genetical modified food?
besides the patent bullshit
and crosspollination
it amazes me how much info instagram collects from the phone
and from one day to other basically all the recommended content changes 180 based on conversations I had
do you whatsapp?

theres something satisfying about converting a full screen+ worth of BP spaghetti into 10 lines or so of readable code
it's even more satisfying to know the performance isn't an issue and just leaving it as spaghetti :p
performance isnt an issue, but I'm attempting to clean up my code, especially the BP side. Its kinda messy the way I've got it set up in BP so its hard to follow whats going on
I'm just worried about when i get to spawning props, which are stored as soft refs, and I dont know how to load that stuff properly in c++ yet
if only I see it, I don't mind not understanding it as long as it works so I can forget I ever wrote it :p
Well fortunately I'm a genius and can figure stuff out :p
Honestly though I write clean blueprint code. I'm guilty of spending more time than I should making sure I can come back to it later. My early blueprints were often more like prototyping than clean code so I started to do things the right way using best practice as much as possible.

they have special AMD gpus too
When it works, it really works, adding capabilities for a weapon or sensor system can literally just be rolling out a new version of a container

thankfully plasticity exists
Idk, I was just telling cuppa how it hurts my brain earlier today
i honestly unironically am gonna do it, i got fed up and decided to move to plasticity
blender feels like rocket science but harder
I used blender years ago but I loved it ๐
first c++, then EGS, now Blender
i bet you moved the camera on the first try too smh
BM being hated speedrun any%
lmao
I am sorry to hear that bm
But Blender is actually good tho ๐
Even a good chunk of Epic uses it

I loved the fact that everything is done with shortcuts
There was also that command menu thing which you can use to run shortcuts by name
the response, i dont get it lmfao

that's what I hate about it

I love mayas context menu though
I did a lot of 3d modelling alongside programming until 2018 when I got a programming job
I'm not even joking ๐
I saw an ad of some guy animating a character, got obsessed by it and my dad found blender lol
you made your first donut in 10 min didnt you? smh
Nope, my first thing was a bunch Of cubes stacked together to look like a human lol
for reference, it took me 4 hours
donut first
its a blender initiation ritual
I never did a first model ๐ค It was fixing an existing one. Probably... It was too damn ago to remember correctly.
my first was a lego figure
i first used blender technically in like 2007 or 2008 but thats not really use, more like playing around not knowing what anything did
This is from like 2011, I was 11 ๐คฃ
not bad
now youre just flexing on me ๐
does anyone know any free and good alternative to substance abuser painter for material creation?
And this I think is the last thing I did in blender, this was 2019
geniuses, geniuses everywhere
Hey that's why my social life is non-existent lmao
not much better over here

did I ever show you guys my biggest success?
I think I might have tbh ๐
