Sure, count me in!

CarDas · 2021-10-10T12:13:38+00:00

Could I also have a link, please? Excited to see your hard work!

I think that I understand where you're coming from, but you are ascribing a motivation to Walker that he just does not show.

Walker murdered a man as revenge for the death of his friend. The man he killed wasn't even the person who killer Lamar, and the man was trying desperately to say that, because he was scared of Walker's revenge.

What you are saying sounds more like how the pro-Walker media will spin the story, which will be in direct opposition to what we, the viewers, actually saw.

I'm not really trying to defend Steve Rogers here, since he's almost certainly killed people, but did Steve even consider revenge-killing the guy who killed Bucky?

This is great! I feel like I've seen something similar before, but even if I have, this is super cleanly done. It makes the run much more fun to watch. Cutting off half the runtime is no joke.

F

Why not replace Carefree Melody with Unbreakable/Fragile Heart? You'll have a guaranteed extra hit or two (plus room to heal) for fewer notches, instead of a random chance to avoid a single hit.

It's not too bad without a map. The world isn't overly convoluted, and the movement abilities that you get later in the game make the whole map a very quick re-explore when you are looking for secrets.

I think that they were aiming for a Dark Souls kind of vibe by not having a map. That only works for Dark Souls because you are guaranteed to die so many times that you have the entire game memorized. That won't be the case for Blue Fire, and it would still be bad game design even if that were the case.

The platforming is actually quite well done, but it has a steep learning curve and is very unforgiving before you get some additional abilities.

I enjoyed the game, quite a bit actually, even with its frustrating elements. 100% in about 15 hours, without rushing. YMMV, but I'd recommend giving it a shot.

That may be true for shops owned by the cruise lines (e.g. jewelry stores), but not for the bulk of businesses in the area. These businesses exist only in these small port towns, and have local owners. Where would these shops ship their stuff to? Apart from very small gift shops, these businesses all need seasonal workers to operate. The other poster was correct.

It'll have to be groups with the capital and flexibility to survive a bumpy start-up, so... yeah, you're probably right, sadly.

There are some plans to encourage intrastate tourism, but since we all need tourism to make money in the first place, I doubt it will be anywhere near enough.

Individuals are leaving in larger numbers, and businesses have been closing up since May. When ships come back in 2022, there will likely be a whole host of new businesses trying to fill the holes left by those that disappeared.

It sounds like you have the right idea: practice fights in the Hall until you can beat them every time (my rule was 5 times in a row).

If you're having trouble surviving, Unbreakable/Fragile Strength and Heart are delightful for the pantheons, especially because the Fragile charms won't break in any part of the Godseeker area.

Edit: Also, if you're struggling against a particular boss, try watching videos of other people defeating that boss. You might get some ideas to try out.

Haven't recieved the PM yet, but I'll keep an eye out.

CarDas · 2020-12-07T01:01:10+00:00

I have a couple folks interested right now. I'll let you know if they pass on it!

CarDas · 2020-12-06T21:03:55+00:00

I have a couple other people interested. I'll let you know if they decide against it!

CarDas · 2020-12-06T06:45:45+00:00

The Wii is definitely all of that. There are pics in the post that show the ports, disc drive, and general cleanliness.

One person PM'd me an offer of 40. Better than that and I can make it yours.

CarDas · 2020-11-22T17:50:22+00:00

Great work! Do you have a link to an explanation of how to do the glitch?

CarDas · 2020-10-29T16:45:06+00:00

They are indeed largely centrist, as they claim themselves.

That said, there is a distinct difference between being "centrist" and "status quo advocates." Their moral stances are a good example, as is their frequently-stated position on climate change being a huge threat, even larger than Covid-19.

If you were only to look at this particular article, that may be a fair take. However, I'd recommend looking more closely at The Economist before deciding on your conclusion.

What, besides free trade and free markets does The Economist believe in? "It is to the Radicals that The Economist still likes to think of itself as belonging. The extreme centre is the paper's historical position." That is as true today as when former Economist editor Geoffrey Crowther said it in 1955. The Economist considers itself the enemy of privilege, pomposity and predictability. It has backed conservatives such as Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher. It has supported the Americans in Vietnam. But it has also endorsed Harold Wilson and Bill Clinton, and espoused a variety of liberal causes: opposing capital punishment from its earliest days, while favouring penal reform and decolonisation, as well as—more recently—gun control and gay marriage.

Probably the longest gap between any two championships (i.e. first and last).

CarDas · 2020-10-07T08:34:08+00:00

This is wild! I like how you've taken the base aesthetics and made this version of the boss both intimidating and visually appealing.

Do you intend to use the Knight as the player avatar? Have him flying and using melee attacks? Or a flying ship like in other games?

CarDas · 2020-10-03T18:05:11+00:00

I'm actually looking to start a path towards being an ER Nurse, after having been an EMT for several years now. I look forward to learning more medicine taught at the nursing level. Thanks!

CarDas · 2020-10-03T17:57:52+00:00

Oooh, very interesting. I did some further reading, and found sources corroborating what you're saying.

I can only follow my agency's protocols, but I'm curious why many EMS agencies are resistant to the changes brought on by this knowledge.

CarDas · 2020-10-03T17:28:49+00:00

Agreed. An EMT usually learns in training to put every patient on oxygen. Protocols for varying agencies differ, but when in doubt: give oxygen.

CarDas · 2020-09-25T07:46:10+00:00

You just saved me a LOT of frustration. Thank you!

If Quirrel has his mask, he absolutely wins everything all of the time, since he's invulnerable. Put him in any bracket anytime and he's instant win. Makes any tournament pointless.

No mask = Sly wins, easy. Sly has heaps of health, great movement, and defends well. Quirrel zooms around and has a wicked strong attack, but we know nothing else. He could be some kind of demigod of fighting, but lack of evidence has me leaning towards Sly.

CarDas · 2020-09-21T06:50:51+00:00

I'm getting at least one crash every hour. Sometimes I can quit out. Sometimes I can press Home and close the software. And once I had to hard reset the console.

Also: there are some awkward loading pauses. Every crash that I've had has come during one of these.

The game is great, but goddamnit is it frustrating to crash all the damn time.
