who decides how the game is gonna be monetized is not the devs, but the lead board, and if you get a lead game developer in there you’re lucky

they will never win, it’s an open source code, anyone can fork an re-distribute It, they can’t realistically lawsuit tens of thousands of people, some of which sre totally incognito

weird take ngl

  1. Buy cheap microsd
  2. Copy game from pc to chip

???

First, you can totally make a steam library on a portable device like a microsd or an external drive (I do and I play on different places with the same drive), and play it on any device running steam.

And don’t start the “oh but you need steam installed”, since with the proprietary sd, you gotta have the propriety device as well.

Second, sure I can just lavel it, a 3 seconds job. Don’t you need the proprietary sd to come labeled as well? Also, I don’t need to label anything, I have dozens of games there and select which one I want to play.

Your defense of OP’s comment is also weird but that’s okay, we all are always learning.

Each format of game has its own merits ans they are only better than another on an objective comparison, as for subjective, just use whatever you want.

I think the problem is just that, the game is… okay, not bad or good, just okay, unremarkable and forgettable.

If you want good sales you need to do something innovative and interesting, or something cliché but really well done.

Taking a look at Doom 2016 (also a single player shooter) we can see the core gameplay: Shoot demons, Pick up ammo, Shoot more demons. But it’s crafted so masterfully that you spend dozens or hundreds of hours doing just that.

Now with this game that I actually forgot the name mid comment, It’s… well you get the ideia.

I worked before in a startup with 30~40 members.

Discord was awesome for communication an administrative bulletins, you could check at a glance everyone who was online and join calls in a single click.

Also we had text channels for specific projects, and for a in-depth discussion of a specific thing we created threads in the same channel, anything of importance could also be pinned down.

With that out of the way, I think if done correctly, It works just fine, It’s a different medium than a forum, since the last is used for future reference, and the former is for on-demand discussions.

Also any platform can be shitty If the wrong person is holding the reins (i.e. Github issues boards)

that’s exactly the point of that thread, there’s no need for a reason in everything, sometimes people are silly and enjoy being silly just for the snake of being silly

Unity bans VLC from Unity Store. (mfkl.github.io)

Everyone can agree on VLC being the best video player, right? Game developers can agree on it too, since it is a great utility for playing multimedia in games, and/or have a video player included. However, disaster struck; Unity has now banned VLC from the Unity Store, seemingly due to it being under the LGPL license which is a...

So you’re suggesting him to:

Drop out of his job (which you may not know).

Stop earning an amount of money that, may or may not be utterly necessary to keep his lifestyle (which you may not know).

Spend months or years learning a new technology, meanwhile unemployed or with a job that may or may not sustain his previous expenses (expenses which you may not know).

Re-make every single project that he owns to a new platform while adapting every single thing to a new environment, meanwhile solving a waterfall of bugs and refactoring problems, ultimately consuming hundreds of hours (bugs which you may not know).

After living miserably for a while, hunt for companies that somehow are using an open source tool that, most of the time, won’t tick all the boxes a company needs from a tool (companies and boxes which you don’t know).

Miraculously find such company and, miraculously rise to a position high enough that you can make a decision which changes the whole core of the development team, impacts licensing for other tools, new hires, compatibilities, and god knows what more down the line (changes which you may not know).

You’re suggesting that he goes down years of an even more uncertain path… just because you feel like It? To me It sounds like an Evil person’s plan. How can you be so assertive saying something which you may not know about? Jesus

FF is a perfectly good browser with as many features as any other.

Even has pioneered some of them like the picture-in-picture that lets you overlay videos.

Could you provide specifics on why you don’t like It? Or what’s “broken”?

hswolf,

I agree with the developer tools take, they are sometimes unresponsive and difficult to read or analyse, especially snapshots.

Now, I have to disagree about the web standards, all major current browsers are W3C compliant, and developing under those guidelines is an interchangeable operation between browsers.

But of course, this a market, and browsers will one-up one another for a higher market share. Google for example has been pushing forward almost a new set of guidelines for Chrome, which has a gigantic market share; and those, while widely used, are not the norm, they should be namespaces, we as developers are bound to have to deal with these edge cases unfortunately.

I understand where the frustration is coming from, Mozilla isn’t a saint, but with the current state of browsers, you can’t possibly say that Firefox is a bad choice, overall It does everything a modern browser is supposed to do.

I’d even say it’s a better option now than It has ever been.

In the souls series you can use a special item to leave messages in the actual world for other players to see, be It a warning, a tip or even jokes.

When writing these messages, you have to choose a template, that usually have one or more blank spaces, then you choose between their bank of word (locations, items, concepts, monsters, items, etc), to fill the blanks.

Alas, in Elden Ring, we don’t have the word “turtle or tortoise”, despite having many turtles in the game, like wild and friendly tortoises, an even a literal Tortoise Pope as an NPC.

With this lack of description, we then use the word “Dog”, which is available, and honestly pretty funny, you see a tortoise in the wild, and a message near It, then you click thr message and…

“Behold, Dog!”

“Ah… if only I had a Dog”

“Why must it always be Dog?”

“Be aware of Dog”

“Dog ahead”

standing in Earth space would be more accurate no?

otherwise when he turned on his power, he would fly away really fast or explode on the ground as the Earth moves away or into him

each person has their own palate, most adults tend to develop a palate for bitter foods like coffee, beer, high % cocoa chocolate, etc

It’s not a rule, but a tendency, If you don’t like It now maybe you’re too young or your palate went another direction, not a problem imo
