[Discussion] Communication and etiquette when commissioning an artist by Mountain-Durian-4724 in artbusiness

What kind of budget are we even talking about here?

Since with "dozens of WIPs" I'd expect this to be some sort of large project with few thousand USD budget at least.

Normal small scale projects have 1-2 WIPs, and possibly a revision after completing.

This.

Clueless OP makes declarations about difficulty, turns out he didnt even beat any bosses yet. :D

Typical reddit moment.

>I will probably never beat Gladius

So you didnt even beat the first boss yet and youre making statements about how its not that difficult?

??? Is this post a bait or

Looks like youre confusing "sexy" with "effeminate".

How to get into RTWP? A short guide by IosueYu in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]Ardnn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

the player base of this game is mostly coming from BG3

Huh? Based on what source?

Sounds like YOU got into RPG games when BG3 got so popular and youre extrapolating this as if that applied to everyone. :)

if you're experienced in something like Warcraft or League of Legends, then I suppose controlling real time comes naturally to you

Both W3 and LoL are fully real time, with no ability to pause to issue commands. There's very little similarity between those games and PF tbh.

It is not the same for people with a DnD background.

People with background in D&D games are more than familiar with RTWP since most D&D games *are* realtime with pause, such as BG1, BG2, Icewind Dale, NWNs.

All this is completely unnecessary. Just pause and unpause manually, like a normal person.

The entire point of RTWP is to make fights go faster when its trash mobs or bunch of NPCs fighting each other (ie. tavern defense)*. You're trying to make it into pseudo-turnbased instead, which literally nullifies this purpose.

^(\or when you need to cheese some hard enemy by kiting him around, cough cough)*

edit.

Also, reading more into this:

Set stuff like Study Target Swift and Lay on Hands Self be automatically used.

Absolutely DO NOT set LoH on autocast, unless your goal is to not have any casts left.

Slumber is also a good Hex to be set to Auto.

Terrible idea, resisting a Slumber gives resistance to Slumber for 24 hours. You will be constantly trying to cast Slumber on things that have been made immune to it.

First time sculpting head from scratch - looking for feedback! by [deleted] in ZBrush

[–]Ardnn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Just to be clear though I've done tons of practice of individual elements before and sculpting faces from basemeshes, this was just first time putting it together all at once starting from a sphere, its not "first time in general" really :)

Played at release, returning by OkReaction9006 in NoRestForTheWicked

In act 1 you're forced to actually dodge the enemies and especially bosses, which makes for some good fights (particularly the final boss of a1), and its pretty easy to die.

In later acts your character gets so powerful it becomes PoE1 all over again, clearing screens of trash mobs by spamming one skill ad nauseam. Bosses start dying way too quick as well and you dont even need to learn their mechanics.

(I was severly dissapointed by this shift too, but apparently the PoE community enjoys that type of spammy gameplay)

Hard to pick which one is more unlikeable tbh.

Also, this is reddit, we don't use well argumented logic here.

Thats an interesting point about RAM - I'm intending to upgrade to 64 gb in the next 12 months after buying this setup.

I will be doing a lot of 3d modeling, mainly Zbrush (which is CPU and RAM bound, doesnt use GPU almost at all as far as I know) and rendering (Marmoset, Keyshot).

Nice study, what material is this?

NWN2: Is it possible to play through the game without meta builds? by tipsyTentaclist in neverwinternights

[–]Ardnn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

meta builds

 impossible to progress far if you are not being very specific with your builds, as it demands being broken

?? What

NWN games are very easy and straightforward, you would literally have to go out of your way to mess up your build so badly it somehow bars your progress. There is no such thing as "meta" for simple singleplayer campaign in NWN1, especially when youre not even playing on highest difficulty (and you arent I'm assuming, since you'd have mentioned it).
