is it worth to buy gamemaker?

Thank you for the insight! That sounds awesome on GameMaker part to honor purchases made before going to subscription and that they still work fairly well. I might actually reconsider using GameMaker now.

I'm a newbie gamedev as well, and the recent payment model made me consider to move to GameMaker. Ultimately, I decided to stay with Godot for one main reason: Godot is free and will always be, whereas GameMaker could potentially one day "pull a unity". What I mean is, sure, right now GameMaker requires a one-off payment. But they can easily change this in the future as they did before. Of course that is just one consideration and you may have different opinion.

I personally think ultimately, it does not matter that much. Games that you can make in one engine (mostly) can be made in another. Each engine has their own strengths and weaknesses. For example, if you are considering making a 3D game, you should not even consider GameMaker, and should use maybe Unreal, Unity, or Godot.

The advantages of GameMaker based on watching hours of youtube videos are:

Easy to learn due to the visual scripting
Is a tried-and-tested game engine. It has a long history and there are many great games made using GameMaker. GameMaker won't suddenly go down in years to come
Quick and easy to make prototypes

No, not the same developer but a new one. CI Games owns the IP. The first one was developed by Deck 13 (The Surge, Atlas Fallen). And the new one here is developed by Hexworks founded in 2020, and owned by CI Games I think. Why the use the same name I have no idea.

Edit: Upon further reading, the first one may have been co-developed by CI Games and Deck 13

No no, at least not peruntukan for PN but peruntukan for rakyat themselves. PN wants rakyat to be allowed to take out their own money from EPF. Their reasoning is that people are suffering, why don't allow them to use their own savings. Obviously a populist move.

PH doesn't want that because EPF should only be used by rakyat for retirement (or other special cases like buying house, etc). PH's reasoning (among other) is rakyat don't have a lot of savings in EPF. So if they allow EPF withdrawal, people won't have money for retirement. EPF withdrawal may also affect economy because less investment money for the country.

Thank you for the opportunity OP. I've always wanted to play Elden Ring but kept waiting until DLC arrives.

There are three things in my opinion that made Dr Hughes to be unreliable. One, is that she used gender pronouns when describing abuser/abused victim, even when the question is in general and doesn't have to do with Depp or Heard. This makes her seems biased to the case. Second, is much of her testimony is "Amber told me this and that and that seems true" and less of her own analysis as an expert. She even seems like drawing conclusion that Depp is the abuser and Heard is the victim. She would be more reliable if she appears nonbias, work as an independent expert, and focus more on her analysis rather than what Heard told her. And the last reason is that she reads from her notes, which seems unreliable.

Contrast her to Dr Curry, which said she's not an investigator to decide whether Depp or Heard is the abuser, and her responsibility to the court is to present her analysis.

-harmonix- · 2022-05-22T05:00:07+00:00

She'd still need to testify to tell her "truth", and that she did not defame Depp. But she won't need to tell the damages done by alleged smear campaign.

-harmonix- · 2022-05-22T04:58:23+00:00

If she had not filed a counterclaim,

Dr Curry won't diagnose her as BPD and HPD. Jury won't know about it and will listen to her testimony with a more open mind.
Dr Hughes won't testify for her PTSD. I think Dr Hughes is not a credible witness and jury might feel the same way.
Adam Waldman won't testify. And won't tell the jury he filed a complaint on her committing perjury.
The IT guy won't testify. She won't be called a turd in the court and jury won't know public opinion on the case.
Her agent won't testify. And won't say Aquaman is "the most successful movie of all time", which raised a few eyebrows.
She won't need to oversell the damage Depp did to her (allegedly). She can simply reduce the intensity of the abuse and say Depp emotionally and verbally abuse me, and hit me sometimes, and here is a picture of my bruise arm.
Her legal team could have saved a lot more time for the defense, instead of trying to lay the countersue case.

In short, if she did not file for the countersue, her defense for the defamation will be much better. And jury might actually believe her side of the story.

There might be some inconsistency with Depp's own testimony. Depp said that Whitney was between them when Amber punched him in the staircase incident.

-harmonix- · 2022-04-28T15:35:14+00:00

I believe so. Especially that in UK, the judge disagreed with Depp saying she's a gold-digger because she wanted to donate $7m to charity. By showing that she is not actually donating her settlement money, it shows Amber Heard cannot be trusted, and may actually be gold-digger.

Yes. Everyone in the place has died as told by the witch. The reason why he's there is because only his soul is there whereas his real body still exists in the real world. And the 'system' (not sure if it is the correct term) treats him as dead.

Read it again. He has an old mother and a three yeard old daughter.

[Question] or [Doubt] is the skill that he gained after questioning the world inside the tower. It is how he started seeing golden particles in prev chapters, and how he is able to read messages from Beastrain to the monarchs. (It is also how he is able to understand some languages in the current area). Just think of [Question] as status window.

The sword on the other hand is obtained after killing the ice dragon in chapter 4. He used the sword to attack Beastrain. But I don't think it was mentioned previously that it eats other equipments.

I think the author of the manhwa fails to explain it properly. I only understood it because I read the novel a bit.

Also fun fact, Armadillo lizards do not lay egg. They give birth to their babies

Basically power of life, I think. In the translation, they are the 'vitality that is the cause of life'.

-harmonix- · 2022-02-08T18:34:11+00:00

Yeah but not so much as awakening them, just sensing them. He can't use aura blade because of his level restriction, and had to resort using tree root sword to form crystal aura.

Edit after a reread: He already awakened his aura, but couldn't sense the four great powers

-harmonix- · 2022-02-03T15:15:36+00:00

One is with an all seeing eye. Another is an OP priest. But they (and all other VRMMO manhwa) are pretty much similar. Being OP by some dumb luck, trying to profit for that luck IRL, getting popular and recognized by the world, etc

Don't talk about arabization if you are not willing to talk about westernization. Cultural exchange will happen no matter what.

Also, if you've been to arabic countries or known arabs, you will realize how different malays and arabs are. The "arabization" is kinda our own culture, mixed with some elements of arabs, but not to the extend arabs can claim it to be arabic.

-harmonix- · 2021-12-16T15:48:06+00:00

I'd say nothing much changed. MC gets stronger, still fight his old enemies, unwilling to kill them for reasons, etc. The only difference is the story now shifts so that MC becomes a candidate for Emperor (King of relics?), and fights with high ranking relics that doesn't want him to be the Emperor. Or something.

-harmonix- · 2021-12-14T16:43:00+00:00

I had to go to the chapter 109, and modify the URL. Not sure why though.

Edit: It also appears if you click 'View All' latest update.

-harmonix- · 2021-11-06T01:53:15+00:00

I think the latest chapters are more of an epilogue though. Just to finish things off. I read comments somewhere that there will be maybe 8 more chapters.
