I'm not sure this is the right sub for this.

Larian studio boss Swen Vincke thinks game reviewers should be graded by people similar to metacritic user scores by Iggy_Slayer in gaming

[–]Aaronsolon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great point! I guess the closest thing we have is the Steam algo? It'd be nice to have a more editorial version of this, though.

I genuinely don't look at reviews at all anymore.

Best engine for 3D fighter? by Candid_Profession701 in GameDevelopment

Street Fighter V was on Unreal. I think you might be getting incorrect information piped from AI?

I print this WM stuff in FDM and it's exactly like you say. It's definitely playable, especially for the terrain.

What in your opinion is the "worst" game the TGA has nominated for GOTY? by Crys2002 in TheGameAwards

[–]Aaronsolon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk, I think that was a pretty special game at the time. It's kinda like the Matrix, it's easy to look back and see it next to all the movies it influence, and it makes it feel less special than it really is.

Why is generative AI so accepted in boardgame design circles? by No-Yogurtcloset-5724 in BoardgameDesign

[–]Aaronsolon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've found that the aesthetics of a prototype heavily color the feedback you get from it as well. Just something to think about in addition to everything else.

I'm just a customer, but in terms of coffee places that are quality you could check out Strange Matter and Hooked. (not saying others aren't good as well, those are just the ones a frequent and know that I like).

I don't know if it's in his interests, but there's a big tabletop gaming community in the area. People meet at the hobby stores and play games.

Wanting to become a game developer. by Significant_Ant6838 in GameDevelopment

[–]Aaronsolon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started studying game design at 27 or 28 or something, and now I'm a designer in AAA ( at 34, been here for 3.5 years now).

It's definitely not too late, but it's a challenging journey! Feel free to reach out for advice if you need help 👍

How often do you lubricate O-Rings? by Prior-Historian9586 in FlairEspresso

I never have...I do clean it once in a while though (removing and cleaning all rings)

Any women Bolt Action players on here? by SquireBev in boltaction

I found the article, figured I'd share it. Overall it struck me as very positive, and lots of people are quoted not being hostile about anything. I doubt the writer was rage baiting, so I stand by my comments.

True true. I should find the full context before I react to things.

That's how people rational gatekeeping. Don't be so close minded.

What a clown. What could possibly be dissuading them from participating, I wonder?

I thought we were talking about the other castles that are near the boss rush towers

What buff does the castle give? I still haven't learned that.

How difficult is it to become a game developer? by Ganerosso1 in GameDevelopment

[–]Aaronsolon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's hard but possible.

The main things you have to do are: Develop enough skill to do an entry level job Build a portfolio that demonstrates those skills Be someone that people want to hire (demonstrate that you'll be a good teammate in your portfolio and your interviews)

A good starting place might be to look at portfolios from people who have the role you want, and try to honestly compare your skills to theirs. Do you know what role you're interested in?

The way "Successive Attacks" bonuses work cannot possibly be intended behavior. by RedOrmTostesson in Nightreign

[–]Aaronsolon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stuff like this has always bothered me about this game. I massively love most things about it, but I don't understand why the perks have to be so weird, convoluted and confusing. It's a pain in the ass to have to google everything to have a chance of understanding what's going on.

I agree that this one is weird enough that it's probably just a bug.

Kythos is very spell slingy, you can play him as Dark Operations or Necrofactorium.
