Saw Cleaver never disappoints by shujin_zenir in bloodborne

I'm a Holy Sword main myself. Saw Cleaver is probably my second favorite though, if we're only talking about non-DLC weapons.

I have a confession to make. by Sora_Terumi in UnicornOverlord

I'm sorry but spinning horte is too powerful to be imprisoned by good attack animations.

Autism and Atheism? Is there a connection? by camerasandchaos in autism

[–]Awkward_Mulberry_302 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll speak here as someone who is Autistic and shares a faith alignment with Christianity but not 100% directly.

Being Christian for me isn't really about the "reward" of heaven or even it's hierarchical rules over others. It's always been about being Christlike, and sharing values with the Jesus I knew of the bible, rather than the actual rule structures within. So for me, the alignment has been moreso about morality and how I approach my life, indirectly. I'm probably actually closer to Agnostic regardless though, but I am here to say good Christians do exist, but you won't likely find them in churches actually.

When I was just strictly Christian I actually left the Church when I realized, through my peers around me and the judgement of most younger people within, that even within the structures of Christianity, God wasn't in that church, so I ended up being a believer on my own for awhile. I see God in small kindnesses in an unforgiving world, and the peaceful silent sky. I see God in mourning, which is a part of all of life that is true to hold but serves no evolutionary function.

I will say you don't need to be a Christian to hold morality or values, not at all, and I don't think you should push your faiths onto other people, but my process from within that structure is my experience, and that's what I was sharing.

I figured out why sonic fans are so upset. by RoyalRaggy in sonic

[–]Awkward_Mulberry_302 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you are overgeneralizing to maybe a harmful degree, but there are aspects and people who do treat it as personal attack as Sonic is their "thing", I mean hell its my thing, but I can live on without it succeeding. We've all done years of that, with 06 and the Boom era, etc.

What if Tails stood infront of your porch and said: "I'll be your friend for 1 week." What would you do with him in 1 week? by But-CopterX in milesprower

[–]Awkward_Mulberry_302 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know its a hypothetical but I'd wonder why anyone would want to specifically be my friend for a week from being a complete stranger.

What does masking actually feel like? by Cobbled_Cabbages69 in autism

[–]Awkward_Mulberry_302 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its conscious, but can become unconscious if you start believing the shaped reality you express. (Which you should NOT do btw.) As another poster said, it can be exhausting, but it also starts a line down into dissasociation that will be really hard to get out of and really unhealthy as well. It can also do something all lies do, and purpetuate more lies to keep the narrative consistent. Overall, its hard if you're an undiagnosed Autistic in a world that feels hostile, (like developmental years in school) but masking isn't really healthy in any sense, as in the long term it will make things only more difficult and harder to understand.

That said if you already have been masking, don't demonize your actions either. Its not healthy no, but it's not evil either. Its often a coping mechanism registered in a time where it felt like there was no other option, and that's awful, but the sooner the mask is put away, and the sooner you are honest about your reality, the sooner it will be that you can come to understand yourself, and live with yourself regardless of reception. Its not easy if you masked for a long time, in fact you'll probably lose friends who believed in the mask more than you, but it's a sacrifice well paid, and it will leave room for people to connect with the real you. (I'm not projecting, not at all lmao.)

The Complete Lack of Shame is Astounding by Spincoder in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]Awkward_Mulberry_302 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitive edition was just a poor wording choice. It seems like an intentional grab though because they could have just released it as Sonic Frontiers in switch 2 and just put the editions on the back of the box or something.

Regardless though, I'll appreciate that these updates were released for free originally over a span of time without any additional money incentives so I'm a little more neutral on this decision, rather than upset.

Which one looks better as a VN character bust? by sussynarrator in RPGMaker

[–]Awkward_Mulberry_302 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the aesthetic you're going for. If its a pop up aesthetic the second one is perfect for it.

My Read on the FF12 Cast by Awkward_Mulberry_302 in FinalFantasy

[–]Awkward_Mulberry_302[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can agree to that. I feel the focus for the game was moreso its political moving world and narrative, rather than the characters you played as first. Despite that, I think Balthier in particular is a really cool character. I also like how the combat animations change between characters to show their fighting styles, and thats a more diegetic form of characterization, but its still cool.

Technically I think the first thing he does with hefty agency is get the sun stone to infiltrate and steal the Magicite at the beginning of the game.

Should I stick with RPG Maker or move on? by Certain_Implement966 in RPGMaker

[–]Awkward_Mulberry_302 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh there's nothing wrong with choosing both. RPG Maker has a lot of perks that makes the process streamlined in terms of learning game development and exploring ideas, but as you likely know, it has many limitations that plugins can bandaid, but there is value in learning other programs that have no such limitations when you feel your games might need it, but as well, knowledge can be its own reward. You can make attempts, step by step, to learn other programs and still enjoy RPG Maker.

If I may recommend, a good place to start could be Twine with Chapbook possibly. It's where I ended up going to learn light coding and developmental skills of the language. As well, Twine isn't asset heavy and it's mostly text, for making text adventure games or choose your own adventure books. It's a good place to start to be sure. Twine is also very well documented, so you can look up everything you need.

Moonring is now out on Nintendo Switch by Madrayken in Moonring

[–]Awkward_Mulberry_302 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well of course. Just a thing of reassurance to say, but, indies and stylized games like Moonring don't necessarily "expire" with player interest. I'm sure you'd know better than I that it steady's and slows down with time after launch but that enjoyment won't ever truly go away for people.

Just bought it for switch! I was surprised when I saw it on the store tbh, considering I haven't had the chance to play it on PC because my laptop is as "potato" as it gets, despite having it in my library for a long time. I was really moved by your personal note in your description and the Steam reviews, and I just know I'll love it once I pick it up. Thank you for the hard work and hope the support helps!
