[cursive crypt]

FarCry 5, didn't felt repetitive to me 🤔

[oblique cloak]

Every farcry is the same story line

[cursive crypt]

In fact, it was a good game.

It was my first.

[oblique cloak]

Oh well in that case you are golden!

lol

[cursive crypt]

Hmm... we will see. I kinda like that style of play. Its fun.

Open world, fun, stories,

[oblique cloak]

I play skyrim from here to there. it has over 800 gigs of mods and crashes all the time hah

[median wraith]

on the exploration side ?

[timber viper]

Repetitive compared to previous games or as gameplay design though

Both repetitive imo

[fluid bloom]

the ubisoftitis is strong in far cry games these days

[cursive crypt]

mm... I can't compare with anything. Was my first as I said above.

[timber viper]

Ah, didnt read that sorry

[cursive crypt]

Skyrim, imma fan too, so there is that.

[median wraith]

yeah maybe I was asking both at time

[oblique cloak]

With microsoft having bethesta and activision i bet have the wow squad is working on the next elder scrolls with them.

i cant freaking wait. the game is going to be the best game for the next 10 years.

[timber viper]

I wouldnt appreciate another studio joining my development process when I'm already at the half of it, because similar situations caused some issues with big AAA titles before

[verbal junco]

I remember positively exactly 2 encounters from far cry 5, the rest were at a point of being infuriating

[median wraith]

Skyrim was nice to explore

but repetitive to me ?

no the world but the history

[verbal junco]

too much snow? 😂

[oblique cloak]

I know what you mean. Ravensoft and tryarch did this with cod and ruined it.

[cursive crypt]

Hmm... the only remark I have is the not being able to skip a cutscene. That was annoying.

[timber viper]

Have you played Oblivion or Fallout New Vegas

[cursive crypt]

I liked it the first 2-3 times to watch them, but after that, it was not about the story, but to seed chaos around i.e. having fun.

[median wraith]

Fallout New Vegas never worked for me

[oblique cloak]

I honestly cant wait for this!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_K7Kpt7X84&feature=emb_title&ab_channel=TESRSkywindOfficial

[median wraith]

at the very start always a monster kill the lady of the tutorial

[oblique cloak]

Morrowind was a classic i played for years as a kid

[cursive crypt]

With 200+ mods is kinda good. Nowadays it just looks really outdated tho.

[verbal junco]

morrowind was nice but strange

[fluid bloom]

yup

[timber viper]

I'm too young for Oblivion but played New Vegas quite too much at the time

[fluid bloom]

fallout 3 and new vegas always looked super dated

the fact that a game released in 2010 didn't have realtime shadows at all was baffling

[cursive crypt]

Morrowind was the first open world RPG I enjoyed I think 🤔

[timber viper]

It was almost impossible to progress in the game without cheats for young Intax 😛

[verbal junco]

oblivion was nice except every 200m there would be another effing oblivion gate

and of course the hero of kvatch memes

[timber viper]

If Oblivion had better controller mechanics I'd be still playing it, with some graphic mods

[oblique cloak]

If you want to try oblivion again. https://skyblivion.com/

[cursive crypt]

They beat the limitations of their engines with their mod authors fanbase, lol

[verbal junco]

anyway if you're talking about new vegas you should really play the dead money dlc

it's awesome and well beyond what the original game did

[cursive crypt]

Aah... I know it. Was good.

[timber viper]

Whoa wait, thats Oblivion mod for skyrim?

[cursive crypt]

Mod authors...

[oblique cloak]

Yupp 🙂

it was amazing!

it felt so engaging

[timber viper]

Is that just oblivion map or also quests somehow migrated to Skyrim?

[verbal junco]

pretty sure it's the entire package

[median wraith]

recently I played some game that you are a flying ball from the microsoft store and you go across strange worlds, someone played that ?

[oblique cloak]

The team that makes the mods like this revamp everything from modular assets, decals, quests, everything is subject to change

[verbal junco]

to be fair the base resources available in skyrim would probably cover a good amount of the content they would need to make for oblivion

so it's just about either remaking the quests or porting them over verbatim

[oblique cloak]

last video i am posting sorry to flood the feed

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XGvU7QDWEDc&ab_channel=Rebelzize

that video shows the changes to the game

[verbal junco]

changes:

• snow removed

[oblique cloak]

lmao

[deep copper]

that's quite a lit 🔥 update

[oblique cloak]

they took the beta down from nexus 😮

oh well

[cursive crypt]

reasons

[oblique cloak]

I'm convinced a bunch of you guys in this discord will make amazing games someday

LOL facebook memories. It's hard to put in my head 9 years ago There was xbox 360 and ps3, and blockbuster was still around.

[verbal junco]

maybe some of us already have 🤔

[oblique cloak]

then praise be!

[timber viper]

I never was a console guy 🥲

[mossy nexus]

I would imagine several have 😄

[knotty skiff]

Merca empire but fixed

[oblique cloak]

Those eyes got me all creeped out lol

[knotty skiff]

They took over Argentina and Chile

[knotty skiff]

That's just normal life in Source Engine ports

[scarlet cedar]

whos keen?

[plain meteor]

Here is the video about what were talk in the general channel: https://youtu.be/H-hOG66xRcY

I prefer not keep the "Nexus Wars" name because it's also a popular starcraft mod

[cursive crypt]

wth is going on 🤔

You think?

Hmm...

[zinc matrix]

https://www.unrealengine.com/marketplace/en-US/product/european-alleys

pretty nice pack

[quasi mantle]

I'm thinking about Grottoforce

[median wraith]

don't looks like...

[median wraith]

let me give you a like because is kind of sad that 0 0

[mossy nexus]

Doesn't strike me as being specifically European.

[plain meteor]

Ha never really showed it from this link, we had another youtube channel during the contest :p

[median wraith]

people get money from these gamemodes ? @plain meteor

[plain meteor]

It's a bit more than a mod, but yeah for this game jam the price was actually really high

there was some sort of preselection for this one too

they ended up giving a bit more to second / third I think, I don't remember very well...

[median wraith]

well the first is nice

[plain meteor]

Yes

We were 2 on this, and we won so pretty good for a month work...

but a month long game jam is kind of too stressful

at least for me XD

[median wraith]

well 5k for a month of work for a team that was on constant pressure isn't a payoff

[zinc matrix]

How do those teams work, are they pre made?

[plain meteor]

yeah thats why I think during the result they decided to double some prizes

[zinc matrix]

Depends, I think context really matters.

[plain meteor]

we apply with the member we choose, you could apply with 2 or 10 people it was up to each team

but working with a big team in a month, unless you know each other very well, it's difficult

[zinc matrix]

I bet, do they allow an option to join a team or something like that?

[median wraith]

not even a single person team that gets 3-5k is a payoff but the income if you are in USA lets say

[plain meteor]

there is a discord and you can search for teams, but I think people teamed up with persons they knew

Many game jam don't even have a reward, but usually they are shorter

[zinc matrix]

Interesting, thanks. And congrats on you achievements

[plain meteor]

thanks 🙂

[plain meteor]

Team then were able to try to monetize their games on the platform, it's kind of like roblox...

the Game Jam can kickstart some project / teams

[median wraith]

well that's cool

idk whats the average income from Roblox and Core

like Roblox have a bigger amount of players but all the games looks like mobile replicas

[plain meteor]

Core is still kind of new, Roblox it's crazy....

[median wraith]

no idea whats the split or exposure of people

[plain meteor]

I don't understand how roblox games make so much money

[median wraith]

kids with credit cards

grinding

[plain meteor]

yeah it's so strange, they go into roblox cause it's free but end up paying more than if they just buy actual good games

well I never played roblox, but video I saw didn't make me want to try

but yeah like you said, the trget is the kids...

[median wraith]

what are good games ?

People this days pay for skins to be cooler no because the games are good but because have friends exposure

same thing for grinding progress

[cursive crypt]

Exploiting players, gacha

Or I dunno, maybe they mad to give money to begin with 🤔

[plain meteor]

yes roblox has a lot of grinding

its kind of unhealthy for kid really

gatcha and grind

[cursive crypt]

But is their money, parents

[median wraith]

well wealth kids always acted like that

[mossy nexus]

Just waiting on whoever it was to magically appear and try to convince us all that roblox is the way forward for making money.. lots of money.. 😄

[left granite]

[median wraith]

na now the common are the apps to make money getting the purchase tickets or pay for food that will be drop by the supermarket

"I'm making good money now..."

8€ per year

I do remember when with 8€ you used to get food and that for a week

now you have to decide if you invest that on 2 packs of single layered toilet paper or in the double sided one

[mossy nexus]

double. no one like poop fingers

I need another season of The Legend of Vox Machina..... NOW!!!!!!!

[deep copper]

i really hope the wolf hoodie keeps ponk warm

[median wraith]

that are parts you don't need from the roof

[verbal junco]

what am I looking at

[unreal ether]

I think it is potentially a roof

[verbal junco]

fair enough

seems to be shingled, too

I guess thatched rooves aren't popular in finland

[unreal ether]

Keen eye for observation I see

[verbal junco]

I try

[unreal ether]

Ohhh thats what they are

[verbal junco]

I just learned that snow guards are a thing

and apparently that they are not very durable

[unreal ether]

I genuinely thought they were windscreen wipers for a second lmao

[verbal junco]

same

I was looking to see if the photo was taken inside of a car

[unreal ether]

Always a bonus

[verbal junco]

they seem quite efficient

[deep copper]

that feels like a tongue

[unreal ether]

Its just a snow mattress

[deep copper]

doing yoga

[left granite]

lovely

[deep copper]

houses made of snow are warm, so that creates some sort of a 1/4 warming effect i hope

[oblique cloak]

Grogu is not yoda or "baby yoda", this makes so much more sense...

_<

[deep copper]

huh, i wonder if being stuck in an avalanche is hot

can't find anything about it, guess it's cold then

[oblique cloak]

Does anyone know what I am talking about here, me and my friend and trying to figure what this was called. There was a separate card in the early 2000's that enhanced visual effects like fog, smoke, etc. Does anyone remember?

[foggy path]

You're thinking of dedicated physx cards

Before Nvidia bought it, it was a dedicated card you had to use

[oblique cloak]

YES! this was it

[mossy nexus]

cold.. very cold, as direct contact will very quickly drain your body heat

[foggy path]

I don't think I know anyone who owned a PPU card

it was a neat idea I guess, but it was pretty much just visual stuff in games like I recall Mirror's Edge had a feature where cloth hanging on things looked better with a physx card

[deep copper]

ah right i didn't think of that, it seems you don't even have enough space to breathe by expanding lungs properly. and the insulation will only work if not in direct contact. so makes sense

[oblique cloak]

I had one but it blew up with a power surge back in the day, i was using it for cod4 and battlefield 2 (dont know if it made any difference always thought it did)

[foggy path]

heh

[deep copper]

was it rtx level costly or what

[foggy path]

I guess in theory a game could utilize it to run its physics calculations in general for a higher framerate, but I don't know if any actually did that in practice since it would probably have made the physics implementation more complex for them to support both accelerated and non-accelerated physics

[oblique cloak]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=28&v=iWlmIjNiqWM&feature=emb_title&ab_channel=bloody2k

its LOUD use mute button

Alright thanks tho 🙂 This was killing me trying to think of what it was

[foggy path]

Unless you make it in the empty lot where they dump all the snow in the city

[deep copper]

that's a lot of planning but yeah safety first

avalanche

[verbal junco]

now to tell a cornice apart from a snow drift 🤔

[foggy path]

a corniche has four wheels and the spirit of ecstasy

[night grove]

I'm not one to be claustrophobic, but that snow house makes me very uncomfortable

The roof collapses and you run out of oxygen real quick

[cursive crypt]

Rly? It is frequent around.

Cornice

[night grove]

Neat idea, but how do you make sure it doesn't collapse on you?

I've been told avalanches are dangerous because when buried you run out of oxygen and die in a very short timeframe. Long before the cold can hurt you.

[verbal junco]

only if you build them in cornices

[carmine frigate]

if a brick house collapses u get bricks on ur head

[mossy nexus]

Avalanches can crush you, it doesn't take much snow to start pressing down really hard on you. I've had around 4 inches of snow on me and that was not very nice at all 😄

[verbal junco]

bricks don't melt in summer though

[night grove]

A properly built brick house shouldn't collapse if someone walks on the roof though.

[carmine frigate]

shouldnt is the word there

it has happened B4 and will happen again

[ocean marten]

Iglos are cool

[zinc matrix]

the snow shelter on picture is temporary mountaineering stuff

[verbal junco]

I'll take my chances in a brick house over a snow house

[carmine frigate]

some houses are made of cow dung

[oblique cloak]

Imagine playing Minecraft VR and that thing just appears right in from of your eyes as you turn to the left.

[zinc matrix]

you can cook with cow dung as your fuel

let me find a picture of her

[ocean marten]

Cow dung?

[carmine frigate]

you can cook the cow

[ocean marten]

Thats

Nor going to be.pleasent

[zinc matrix]

exactly

i could not find, it is been a while, but i know that lies somewhere in this blog; https://cyclingcindy.com/2018/01/31/baking-bread/

[carmine frigate]

bear grylls does it all the time

[zinc matrix]

but you can find stuff about it on Youtube, https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=GnTFTfF5b94

[ocean marten]

I'd rather build a house out of dirt....

Than cow dung

[zinc matrix]

they in a dry state work as a good fuel if you in the wild

[carmine frigate]

ye i never understood why they wouldnt do that either

[unreal ether]

"It gives your food a very nice smoky flavour"

[ocean marten]

Even if it was the only thing available

I wouldn't eat cow dung either

I'd rather eat dirt

[zinc matrix]

is used as burning fuel for you cooking pot

lol

[ocean marten]

Oh

Ok

[zinc matrix]

the only stuff you eat from cow dung is mushrooms

and i advice to take care

[ocean marten]

The shrooms

[zinc matrix]

identify them first

[ocean marten]

Watch out if they turn blue

When cutting them

[zinc matrix]

because some poisonous grow out of that too

[ocean marten]

If it turns blue then it's poison

[zinc matrix]

if it is blue you eat :}

[ocean marten]

You will die

Inside

[zinc matrix]

blue color is psilocybin reacting with oxygen

you want this stuff

i think

[ocean marten]

I'm pretty sure it's poison if it turns blue

Lemme check real quik

[carmine frigate]

i used shrooms a few times, its something else

[unreal ether]

Smh its just mushroom blood

[ocean marten]

shrooms

mmm

[grizzled rapids]

hey 👋🏽 I’m also trying to find more informations about mmd animations and unreal workflow, I tried several methods but I can’t any solutions atm 🥲 so hard to get the motion + a fully textured character 🤯

[ocean marten]

why are you using that many emoji's https://docs.unrealengine.com/4.27/en-US/AnimatingObjects/SkeletalMeshAnimation/Persona/Modes/Animation/ this?

[night grove]

How to tell the difference between poisonous and edible mushrooms? Poisonous mushrooms are rare... YOLO! Take a chance!

[ocean marten]

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Shrooms...

why do i feel like thats going to be taken out of context and end up in the next Halo?

[oblique cloak]

It saddens me that halo runs so poorly. Slipspace Engine should be disposed of.

[ocean marten]

wdym

Halo Infinite runs like a dream

[oblique cloak]

I ran it with my dev pc and got only about 80 FPS yesterday.

[ocean marten]

uhhh

thats good...

anything above 60 is good unless its capped

[oblique cloak]

not for the overpriced specs i have.

[ocean marten]

could just be frame limiting?

so it maintains at 80?

[oblique cloak]

Naw. any type of sync is off

no reason why a ryzen 9 3900 xt, radeon 6900 xt, 128 gigs of memory and a 2 tb hd should run like that on a 360 htz monitor.

guess i just dont have the CPU for it i had no idea its more cpu biased.

I make sure they are unplugged 🙂 I dont like my regular build its a netflix and file storage unit now. lol

[mossy nexus]

Colour changes in mushrooms by itself means nothing, each species that has a colour change can be different.

[oblique cloak]

The only thing i can think of is the game does not like Hyperthreading. Ill try turning this off, next time I feel like gaming

[ocean marten]

h

👍

[verbal junco]

just to bring it back to the other discussion: you would think this is a nice drift:

but you'd be wrong

it's a cornice and a death trap

[ocean marten]

👎 ⛷️
🕳️ ⬜

death

[mossy nexus]

This is also a cornice, not so much a death trap

[verbal junco]

could be, if it falls on you

just like a snow cornice 😎

[mossy nexus]

If it was an old fashioned one, definitely. They were made out of plaster. Modern ones tend to be Styrofoam.

[oblique cloak]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4VENshiOkw&ab_channel=AtomicHeart

That looks good 😮

[unreal ether]

This is also a cornice, not deadly, but very disgusting

[verbal junco]

this is a cornice pasty

[unreal ether]

Also known as delicious

[verbal junco]

yeah they're decent

the best one I had was with green thai curry

[unreal ether]

You ever had a traditional one?

[verbal junco]

well at least they weren't made from lead or asbestos

Hı guys. I just bought a hosting from Hostinger.com and i want to create my own blogging-portfolio website.

I don't have any experience on web development so i decided to use a CMS(Content Management System). But i don't know which one to use. I know wordpress is popular but i also know wordpress bugs, exploits etc are popular too.

I will only create content which includes texts, images, videos, etc. I care performance and security.
Which CMS i should use? All suggesstions are appreciated 🙂

[verbal junco]

no idea

I've used wordpress before but I had to adjust it to fit what I needed to do

[brazen roost]

I can listen you experience tho 🙂
I never used any CMS before

[verbal junco]

then you might as well just try whatever

or ask in a forum specialized in web design perhaps

[cursive crypt]

I kinda of shit on Gygabyte mobo, but today the bios wiped out even its configuration profiles. Almost one year after the purchase.

(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

Gonna have a talk with the store tomorrow.

Ah, yeah, saw it recently.

Yeah, I'm not so stupid not to expect it is a defective unit.

However, combined with the miss of some features, its premium price and the fate striking exactly after the warranty - makes me boil.

why you reset?

ah

Well, this at least they made easy for noobs. Just a bios setting, the mem overclocking.

[brazen roost]

Thanks. I will consider that

[cursive crypt]

No desire to squeeze more by hardware tweaks.

Freaking QA

Hmm... I wonder, if I change the mobo... I sense a lot of pain with software licenses and stuff.

[mossy nexus]

if only the mobo, you shouldn't have any issues.

[cursive crypt]

I dunno, you know, hardware IDs and etc.

[verbal junco]

I've not had nvidia driver issues ever

in fact the only gfx driver issues I ever had

were with AMD

checkmate, atheists

geforce 4 was a while ago

back in those days I couldn't afford geforce

I had uhhh

some off brand cards at the time

first gfx I ever got was a voodoo 2

I remember the pain of hooking it up to the graphics card itself

at least it was AGP back then

struggling to remember what I had between the voodoo and before I eventually got a geforce 5600 sometime in high school

[foggy path]

I had a Riva TNT

I like howthe nvidia drivers back then were called "detonator" lol

I think they kept that naming into the geforce-line as well but eventually changed it

[zinc matrix]

So how do you remain cognitively dissonant from world problems?

I'm not criticizing you guys, I just genuinely want to know because I realize now I can't do jack to fix any of them

[pearl compass]

music, headphones and an active idea.

[zinc matrix]

I just feel guilty partaking in capitalist activities now knowing it's the multibillionares fucking us and the rest of the planet over

[pearl compass]

The best thing we can do is continue to educate everyone and anyone you can as to the reality of reality and hopefully one day that mass will be enough to move the needle

[foggy path]

I just avoid reading social media bs

If you feel guilt about something, why not do something useful

I have started donating money to charity because I can afford to do so, and I refuse to shop at a department store chain which is owned by a neonazi supporter :P

[oblique cloak]

ill be your charity.

[foggy path]

sure give me your paypal I'll send you five bucks

lol

[oblique cloak]

lol

[foggy path]

I wonder who was it here that promised to send me a dollar if I turned off my windows 10 search bar

like a paper money dollar

he never did

[oblique cloak]

I used to donate to myself on twitch and make myself tax except by writing it off on my taxes 😛

[foggy path]

yeah he must have dropped out because it was too embarrassing to admit he forgot to send that dollar to me

@oblique cloak that probably ended up being a net loss

[oblique cloak]

Not if you put your dependents to 10 on your paycheck 😉

[foggy path]

you donate 5 bucks, twitch takes a cut, and your tax write off is from your taxable income, not your total tax, so even if you wrote off 5 bucks, in reality you probably actually gained nothing

[oblique cloak]

Was with paypal and streamlabs

[foggy path]

Ah, well there's a smaller loss from their cut then :D

[oblique cloak]

they took like .05 cents on the dollar. prob changed by now

this was like 4 years ago xD and it was on mixer

mine?

[foggy path]

ugh, control schemes are annoying

the more features I add into my game the more my control scheme starts to get in the way

it used to be left click to pick up, right click to drop and interact with some things (like opening boxes)

but with more things you can interact with, it became a bit annoying to drop items because sometimes you might want to drop an item but you were pointing at something you can interact with

[oblique cloak]

lets see your game!

[foggy path]

so now interact is on E, and right click is just drop

[oblique cloak]

post a video in show off i would love to see it

[zinc matrix]

Charities are often corrupt and embezzle money

[foggy path]

once I finish this rant about controls

:D

but now I added a function to attach certain things to doors

but to open a door.. you press E because you're interacting with it

....but also to attach something, you press E... because it's an interaction

so now if you hold an item you can attach to a door... you cannot open a door

:D

[oblique cloak]

I love knowing what every single people intentions are here 🙂 we should be having people post everything in show off's daily

@left granite why ping this guy?

[foggy path]

also @oblique cloak just click on my profile, there's a link to my game's website which has a very very early trailer

[oblique cloak]

those VOICE LINES!

lmao

[foggy path]

anyway I wonder how am I going to solve this... I'm probably going to need to add another button to deal with this open door/attach to door conundrum...

[oblique cloak]

i wanna return this tape xD

[foggy path]

yeah my friend Irving Force did those voices, he did a stellar job

[oblique cloak]

very cool tho, interesting concept

[foggy path]

yeah, hopefully we'll actually get it somewhat done one day, the scope might be a bit too ambitious

we had some plans to scale back the open world side of it a bit and focus more on the actual store management/tycoon gameplay aspect, since we can always expand the world-aspect of the game later

I used to play impossible mario back in the day, I agree the hard levels are too much and I can't beat them today, but most of them are pretty short and can be beaten

I'm the type of person to waste way too much time building the muscle memory to beat the easy-hard levels lol

[verbal junco]

never seen a more efficient use of an arithmetic unit

[thorny dock]

When I saw that my mind was truly blown

Also because in mario maker, when things go off screen they don't tick/exist anymore

[verbal junco]

well

define offscreen

it's x amount of blocks away from the screen

[thorny dock]

Yeah that's right, not completely offscreen but there are x blocks

And players are damn good at utilizing that space lol

[verbal junco]

yea it's interesting see what people come up with

I wish there was a web version of the editor

but then I'd spend time on nothing else

I gave a copy to my nephew for xmas, I can't wait for the horrendous BS he's going to show me the next time I see him

[thorny dock]

Oh I've been there, you can expect to see a lot of kitty paws smacking the hell out of mario as he goes down the flag, followed by every single level mario being carried by conveyor belts to his death, as 100s of sound effects go "AHHHHHH, HELP ME, AHHHH HELP ME"

It's always good fun though lol

Yeah a web version of the editor would definitely be fun, but Nintendo would never do that, but man the kinds of things (and tools) people would make would be incredible

[oblique cloak]

tbh seeing what people can create from custom levels and maps like this is inspiring to a game creator. Knowing what people want in reality compared to what is given by a industrial dev.

[verbal junco]

yes those industrial devs don't know anything about what people want

[oblique cloak]

that's because they never really played there games. "10 minutes in, YEAH THAT LOOKS GOOD!"

[verbal junco]

obviously

[oblique cloak]

the best was a cod4 video i got to find, really inspiring.

[verbal junco]

they only make games, not play them

all those years of experience shared between dev members all for nothing

it means nothing when players know best

in fact studios should just pick up regular people off the streets and make them game designers

that way we would have some GOOD games, finally

There’s so much more in unreal engine that you can do!!!!

More then just games. You can make animations. Like for tv series. So much man

@zinc matrix man I’m so excited ya know?

But HALO

It wil be windy for UK

[regal pecan]

Every game had to deal with covid. Only BF2042 underwhelmed. Not sure why they'd single out Halo as opposed to CoD:Warfare or every other game released over the entire last year that was better tan BF2042.

[cursive crypt]

People concerned there are no video games due to covid? 🤔

[regal pecan]

EA executives concerned that they couldn't even beat Rainbow Six: Extraction.

[cursive crypt]

Go figure what makes a good game, it is either money or amount of players 🤷‍♂️

@zinc matrix you should finish that game

are you just in the business of making TLD clones??

[deep copper]

tld?

[verbal junco]

of course, the evidence is clear

https://tenor.com/view/charlie-day-gif-18564553

I was more referring to the UI, but the snow does help as well

looks cool enough though

[deep copper]

that's also a 2014 game, same as spooky's jumpscare mansion thing

it doesn't looks scary, for a survival game

[mossy nexus]

Saw this from CGDive : https://youtu.be/qLfrrtJNWP8

[median wraith]

So is there some game about explore and collect things that isn't an horror or survival game ?

@zinc matrix you must know

[knotty skiff]

The Forest

Wait no

Anemoiapolis?

No wait

[median wraith]

Technically the most equal could be the resources collection on RTS ones

but

I mean are survival but no that hardcore

[knotty skiff]

Wait wait wait I think I know one

[median wraith]

Epic gave that one for free ?

or was some kinda alike

[knotty skiff]

Matt Newell's Games??

[median wraith]

The most equal to what I'm looking maybe are the old school games arcade ones or platformers

platformers have things to collect and are basically about explore and keep going

[mossy nexus]

a survival based platformer?

hmm

[median wraith]

you work for EA ?

fired

Isn't there already survival based platformers ?

[mossy nexus]

Pac-Man - it's a game where you listen to rave music, and collect pills, you do get chased by ghosts though so might not be what you're after 😄

[knotty skiff]

Yeah but not the OTHER Pacman

Rave music? No, once the Pac-man ate all pellets, you go to guitar solo

For some reason never liked that game

idk why

[verbal junco]

hunting wabbits

there's also that game by jon blow

sure but it's got its fair share of exploration

it's also artistically quite nice

[deep glen]

been using this a little.
sadly its often tiny motions that get a bit jittery

[verbal junco]

which is not something I feel I can say about every game

I'll give you the puzzles weren't exciting but I think the world is quite nice

I think grimrock 2 hit a good spot between combat and puzzles personally

combat, puzzle, exploration

FWIW they are basically clean room reverse engineering hardware inner workings into a software form.

[deep copper]

radio dramas? that's interesting

it might work

remembered me when i was a kid; i set earbuds under the pillow at high volume, so i could hear while laid and went sleep hearing relationship advice and problems on the radio

that's neat, i never thought you could use earbuds that way

not to freak you out but you have a skeleton inside of you

unless it's just energy, then it doesn't

[carmine frigate]

energy just hasnt a lot of mass, it has some tho

they be called electrons

[mossy nexus]

energy itself has zero mass

the effects you can observe from energy, well thats different

[carmine frigate]

The electron has a mass that is approximately 1/1836 that of the proton.

energy itself is a force

[mossy nexus]

Would love to see a source for that, as anything I've saw on the subject suggests otherwise

yep, I ended up ordering indian to not offend the mexican gods of yore

[mossy nexus]

It depends on which equation we use to work out energy, and if we are taking into account if the thing in question is at rest. It's a complicated subject

Not as complicated as the holographic universe theorems though

[deep copper]

fun fact: on Tuesday Goose say Tank (citing @ionic flame)

[mossy nexus]

That's an electron, not a photon 😉

[deep copper]

and they already said the numbers can be wrong, so essentially, they just said "electrons have less mass than protons"

[mossy nexus]

The original premise was that energy had mass

That's why I mentioned the different methods to work out energy. Tis complicated.

[carmine frigate]

yea electon and energy is not the same

[deep copper]

if thoughts can't have a physical form then we might not be able to get some game making tool that can just mind read so easily 😔

[carmine frigate]

an electron has mass so it can have energy

[verbal junco]

do we have any physicists here to tell us what is a shitpost and what isn't 🤔

Its difficult enough to do international shipping all over without a pandemic

[zinc matrix]

I have a friend who had a package of LEDs get stuck in a continuous loop

It's not like a box of swag would instantly improve your life anyway (I think)

[verbal junco]

I beg to differ, material gain is the only thing that can improve life ever

#lounge has been more #memes recently

[knotty skiff]

Ememe?!?!?!

Where is ti!!!!

[deep copper]

but then people might mute that and then normal chats would become dead, all memes would get redirected to #memes channel

it's life taking humour away from your daily life, and having a specific time segment for it

[timber viper]

You need to see #cpp

[deep copper]

like*

[deep copper]

is #cpp also #memes now?

[timber viper]

It has always been

[deep copper]

so #lounge is once again just #cpp ..

[timber viper]

Its more like #cpp is #lounge 😄

[deep copper]

Do any of you guys plan on retiring early so you have more time to work on your game?

[unborn lotus]

[cursive crypt]

It is more of being retired by the time it gets out.

[timber viper]

Since they are same things it does not matter

[red pewter]

I've watched enough anime to pick up a word or two

my dad does Japanese Duolingo so I always try to guess the answer

I'm amazed they are using unreal for this instead of any other DCC

I guess it's just convenient somehow

[deep copper]

tfw when you can tell what they meant and the subtitles are wrong

[cursive crypt]

Same

Kind of useless knowledge, as I don't use it.

[deep copper]

yet

mitochondria is powerhouse of the cell

[cursive crypt]

What?

[deep copper]

trust me, it is the powerhouse

[cursive crypt]

uh oh

[deep copper]

i am not too sure about where it came from, but i used it here for "knowledge i know but i didn't use it yet"

[cursive crypt]

Whatever flies in the ears of the listeners. I prefer songs without vocals usually.

[deep copper]

but by saying it i did use it so idk

[cursive crypt]

Definitely not that.

[cursive crypt]

oooh

[pearl elk]

someone ordered no vocals 😛

[cursive crypt]

Mons... 👍

Tho, I admit, there was a time I thought youngsters are cringe, now I think it is fine. That's how it should be. Song up, good.

[pearl elk]

I should probably go back to my proper name at some point so the noobs dont get confused lol

[cursive crypt]

It is like one of these things only oldies know and nobody else actually cares, lmao

[deep copper]

i always thought you were QuantumSourdough..

i feel lied to

[pearl elk]

Mic is my guy, may actually watch a series from 21 century.

[bronze axle]

Hi lounge.

[pearl elk]

21st century is overrated 😛

[deep copper]

hello pfist

[cursive crypt]

Hi #server-feedback

[bronze axle]

Is that all I am to you?

[pearl elk]

I gave it a 3.5 star rating on Google, 20th century I gave a 4 star

[cursive crypt]

lol, you gotta drop more frequently around 😛

[bronze axle]

Sorry, I've been busy building the new website and such.

[pearl elk]

I saw on the weebsite theres a blog with some words

[cursive crypt]

Otherwise, yeah, 21... hmm I remember a comic about 22 century, the earth was in rainbow colours and dry.

[deep copper]

mediaeval times are also neat as per games

[bronze axle]

In other news, I just switched to Windows 11.

[cursive crypt]

The Slackers site?

[bronze axle]

Yes.

[cursive crypt]

Dang... not fan of web deving. Are you doing this alone actually?

[pearl elk]

we're like baby turtles atm and we're evolving into ninjas cuz of all the mask wearing

[bronze axle]

Yes, initially. Most of what I build will be open source, though.

[deep copper]

what weapon would you prefer?

[pearl elk]

ddos is a weapon right? 😛

[deep copper]

it can cause damage

i think

so it works, 21 century turtle weapons

[pearl elk]

Id be like no more Dominos for you, zzzap

[deep copper]

ha,

that's chaotic

[pearl elk]

[cursive crypt]

[deep copper]

loner means everything is for yourself

[pearl elk]

I was tempted to sign up but I cant check my emails much at work, secure computer garbage 😦

I do have access to the largest DB in straya tho so I guess it makes sense

[deep copper]

straya?

[pearl elk]

its a special country on the bottom of the world

[deep copper]

never knew there was such a synonym for that

[pearl elk]

we abbreviate everything here, words are too long

[deep copper]

that's true, straya is also easier to read

[pearl elk]

but then we'll stretch out the abbreviations for people we care about
