  • What's the point of tolerating existence if nobody is attentive towards your strife? If everyone is so inconsiderate of everyone else's feelings that someone close to you could literally die and others will still schadenfreude all over you, ignorant to your plight to be treated respectfully as a human being?
    insensitive people rushing to put unnecessary spoilers in their youtube thumbnails when a new game is released be like

    The most important statistic in a Bethesda open world game is whichever one increases your carrying capacity.

    Increase stamina and then become capable of supplying an entire army with weapons, armor, and food. :p
    Thinking about it, isn't putting tomatoes on pizza covered in tomato sauce slightly redundant?
    ever just post something but not actually respond to anyone who comments on it because you're a hopelessly lazy degenerate

    Kind of relatable, but in my case it usually happens because I forget to/don't know how to respond, ending up in many different responses piling up from various people, making it so I either respond to some but awkwardly leave others hanging or don't respond to anyone, because no damn way am I responding to 30+ messages on 1 post
    Yeah, so can we please retire the Battlepass monetization format that's implemented in every videogame nowadays? I get it. It's profitable as a business model; that's why it's popular. But you basically have to devote all of your time to them, or else exclusive content is lost to you forever. I have other things to do, and other games to play.

    Rather than actually putting thought and care into updates and making the game more and more fun to play, it's a lot more simple to make some limited-edition skins and call it a day. The inner greed of players (especially competitive multiplayer gamers) will keep them in the grind.

    This system infuriates me on another level, however, since unlike physical content, digital can be distributed to everyone without anyone being at loss, since it's just lines of code compared to actual limited resources. Putting restrictions on skins and such is just... Extremely disgusting in my eyes.

    Pardon me for the triple post. Character limit.

    It's really disgusting, especially as someone who wants to get into Game Dev, just the thought of this being the norm annoys me to no end...
    It's already annoying enough when it's free, or rare occasions (like Pokémon did for eternities already...) but when it's basically your entire strategy... It's honestly sad.
    The way that the wind is blowing as displayed on weather channels is actually a fabrication to distract you from reality. It's scientifically proven that it moves in the direction opposite to the one you're walking, at all times, particularly in winter. Trust me, I'm an expert.
    yo why are all of the cool patterns and pretty colours only on the inside of most rocks, for some reason

    Ok but why is it that with clothes, it's the outside that looks more comfortable than the inside?

    I have two pairs of socks that are way more comfortable inside-out. The pattern is just uncomfortable worn normally.

    @Chir' Probably because they design them to look all smooth and nice on the outside and put all the seams and stuff on the inside.
    they put real lemons in my lemonade
    I hate how all fictitious works with nice, wholesome, conclusive endings make me think nowadays is how awful the state of the world seems to be progressing in comparison.
    women's clothing don't have pockets because they're actually meant to hold things in their mouth, like chipmunks. in fact, everyone is.

    I feel like the fact that everyone is pushing excessively for open world gameplay is really killing the amount of enjoyment I've been able to get out of videogames, and maybe it's the same for others with OCD. The misconception that "more open" = BETTER is beginning to grate on my nerves. Not everything has to be Breath of the Wild.

    Honestly, not completely the same thing, but that's why I didn't enjoy Super Mario Odyssey until speed-running it.
    It has this weird collectathon, where it has a bunch of collectibles (like the Korok Seeds in Breath of the Wild) but at the same time presents them as really important main objectives (like the Power Stars in 64 and Galaxy)
    It's really annoying when you are somewhat of a completionist.

    On a different note, as a starting Game Designer, a huge issue comes from the implementation as well.
    And doing it right is a pain. You have to make sure the world is memorable, filled to the brim with stuff while not overwhelming you, that it guides you in a way that is neither missable nor blatantly obvious. Seriously, just reading up on how Breath of the Wilds development went shows what a monumental task that is.

    I thought for a while about Open World Pokémon before Arceus was announced. The Pokémon World feels like such a great world to explore, at the same time, I feel like the two game styles will clash a lot.
    (Sorry for just suddenly appearing uninvited and dropping a wall of text, as a Game Designer I find the topic very fascinating!)
    sometimes i ponder why i even bother attempting to socialize on the internet

    So, am I the only one who just isn't fond of Minecraft's new world generation? This applies to some of the more refined things that they haven't recently been testing within experimental mode, like the new cavern generation, too. Don't get me wrong, I thought that Minecraft's underground needed an update, and the new stone variants and cave concepts are fantastic, but...

    Personally, I feel like they're too extravagant now. It isn't long before you a cave that's literally endless, and overall they're way too enormous - basically impossible to fully explore and light up, with even more open air than the Nether.

    They're also simply created with noise maps, leading to instances that are super obviously artificially generated, as well as massive, unnatural cave entrances that cut through perfectly smooth terrain like something out of a chunk error. They completely obliterate rivers when they collide with them.

    And this isn't even mentioning the biome generation changes they've been testing in experimental mode, which has removed any sort of refinement the dev team has been perfecting for years and replaced terrain with a sloppy, rugged noise map with random holes in the ground, varying elevations and no consideration for when a slope might be too high or too low. It reminds me of something out of alpha, even indev.

    I swear it'd be a lucrative business decision if Lego just rereleased legacy Bionicle products at this point. I'm absolutely certain they could make a profit off of original fans that desire unopened sets, and there's probably plenty of younger people in the newer generations that would be intrigued by them.
    Yeah, so can with stop this toxic stigma where dogs are infallible godsends whereas cats are all regarded as unappreciative :red:s? I get it. You love your puppies. But animals are individuals. A cat can be sweet, just as a dog can be an annoying, aggressive, drooling mongrel with no respect for human life. Cooper was the greatest angel I knew, and I'm so glad to have grown up with him.
    For everyone who noticed my previous status about Cooper, I'm devastated to report that his Kidney Disease is terminal. There's a chance he could still live quite some time with medical assistance, but I'm dubious and I'm not even sure we have the funds. If we'd caught this earlier, it could have been eradicated, but it's too late.
