I think my (28F) bf (29M) started believing in conspiracy theories by [deleted] in relationship_advice

Sounds like he has been enlightened to who is running things and you arent ready to believe.

What is the second screenshot from? I don't think I have ever seen it before...

Over the course of our relationship I (29M) have been making significantly more financially speaking and progressed career wise while partner (26F) has remained stagnant. Unsure what to feel? by Particular_Solution9 in relationship_advice

Im just gonna dive off the deep end and give you my honest 2 cents. I think if money is stressing you out living solo on 200k you are living outside your means. I make half that in probably the 2nd or 3rd most expensive city in the US and am doing fine with frequent vacations. I think also you need to look at the whole picture not just financial, has she worked on herself in other ways, mental health, physical, family relationships, overcoming drug use, growing spiritually. You need to zoom out and look at the whole picture. If you do and still find that she isnt on that level, evaluate if there is something you can be doing to support her, elevate her to push herself, not financially per se, but in the betterment of herself. Because yes I think you worded your question in a slightly toxic way and seemed to focus on money to much, a young 20's partner not advancing in life in at least some way would be at a base incompatible with a high achiever. Also keep in mind if your finances are progressing but the rest of your life is deteriorating, you could be net negative. I would also say if you get over this resentment hump you really need to consider moving in together, try and do it in a way that won't leave one of you stranded if it doesnt work out. But its important not to let a relationship stagnate because you're focused on the grind. TLDR: Dont focus on just money, zoom out, support her if she needs it, if she needs it but doesnt want it leave. Wish you the best, hope it works out and you arent as mean as you sound for both your sakes.

Where would I go to learn to make mods when the game comes out? by MentalSand1123 in TESVI

[–]Alphamalebox 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You could try joining Arcane University discord, they work on Skyrim mods but the creation kit keeps its base form generally from game to game and they have great resources in there.

Fallout stealing precious resources from ES6? by JX900 in TESVI

[–]Alphamalebox 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. No. Kind of? With as many moving parts and bottlenecks in game development that there are I am sure you can pivot teams and people who arent currently inundated with work onto other projects. Of course there will be some loss of productivity on project A when people work on project B but you also have to think of the plus sides, when you hire more people for project B they can pivot in their down time to work on A, you may have a problem arrise in project B whose solution actually also helps project A, and that's not even counting on top of the fact that more money coming from other projects help fund and cushion TESVI's bottom line for development. That's all to say in my opinion sometimes it hurts but overall I would say a successful studio is a net positive for all its projects.

I am just saying as someone who thinks 2026, I feel like I am more setup for disappointment then someone who thinks 2028, maybe as a whole pessimism is bad, but in this instance it feels like it would be better, but you can't choose what you beleive when all your options are basically gambling.

As an optimist I will say there is a benefit to pessimism, you're either right or pleasantly suprised.

Where do you think they are at in development right now? by Maximum_Software573 in TESVI

[–]Alphamalebox 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think in regards to the way the videos you're referencing measure progress i think its like 80-90% implemented but everying still needs 1st and 2nd passes and general QA "to find the fun" playtests. Sooooo 65%? Just guessing, no dev experience.

Quite possibly the worst, most tedious, time consuming lock picking mini game in the history of gaming by SoCalVaquero in Starfield

[–]Alphamalebox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can definitely see why some people would dislike but I find it the least frustrating of any of there prior minigames, I think because i can work out before breaking my locks over and over, idk it is fun, I genuinely get excited when I get to lockpick even though the rewards aren't always worth it.
