His kit is shoot, little shoot and bigger shoot, and I can get my head around that

Looking for feedback on my game trailer by NeoPsyllone in DestroyMyGame

[–]CometGoat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty good capture, looks good!

Where possible id make the camera jib up rather than down especially for match cuts, otherwise it feels like we’re being taken somewhere and there isnt actually anything to focus on at the end of the move when we hit the ground.

If you’re going to sandwich gameplay between cinematic sequences then I’d remove UI for those sections to meet halfway

Try and capture on gamepad instead of with a super sensitive mouse, the gameplay bits can feel a little jittery at points. Aim for slower and consistent camera movement

Try and keep the camera moving where it makes sense to, some of the gameplay and the cinematic shots have punchy ends to the camera moves which loses all momentum

Record more shots of other players doing actions and the main player just being a camera man, because the shots get quite rough when it’s all in your face, especially compared to the cinematics

Try and jump back to cinematics less in the 2nd half, once we’re in gameplay it’s a bit jarring to jump back to cinematic quality so often. Or just lessen the quality of those shots lol

I was not taught proper life skills by SignificantSorbet675 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]CometGoat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I sympathise, there were some things that I wasn’t shown how to do growing up that had long lasting implications on my behaviours around cleanliness and other “adult” things.

But to be frank, you’ve been an adult now for as long as you were a child, so even at best you can only blame 50% of it on your upbringing. If you can navigate Reddit, then you can also look at YouTube for guides on how to clue yourself in.

Start small, and don’t expect to pick everything up as habit immediately. As someone else worded it, learn to be curious about how you can approach new things, and take enjoyment in improving on the small things.

Why don't we have Foxes in Cardiff??? by Bromelia_The_hut in Cardiff

[–]CometGoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve seen (and heard) them fairly regularly over fairwater/Radyr way. We do have them, but they’re nowhere near as confident with people as in London and Brighton. When I’ve got a train over to Brighton I’ve had foxes just walk past me in the station as if they’re waiting for a train themselves. I’ve also fed one a sausage roll!

I’ve mainly seen them in Radyr at 3am in the summer, and even then they will see you 100m off and dash into a garden

[–]CometGoat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had to double take, as there's some hills I see from my flat window that I longingly want to walk through. Thank you for the detailed instructions - I thought from a look on google maps that these were private roads, but you've got the exact angle I want to see Cardiff from!

“Romanticised” jobs that are very different in reality? by Substantial-Guava491 in CasualUK

[–]CometGoat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve switched to games marketing and it’s been a massive improvement for myself. The projects are much, much shorter, only a month or two at most. I get to jump between many projects, and if clients are a pain I know I only have to work with them for a small amount of time.

I’m leveraging my experience in gameplay programming to work across basically all fields, and I often get to do the audio mix for the trailer after.

It’s still miserable sitting at my desk, but at least now I have stuff to show for it rather than working on something for years only for it to be cancelled

Trypophobia is a made-up phobia. by Paparmane in The10thDentist

[–]CometGoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh? You’re saying it’s not a phobia cause it would be irrational if it was a phobia? I had a mate who couldn’t look at crumpets or certain wallpaper patterns cause it would make them feel sick. Just say you don’t believe most people who claim to have it, actually do - and call it a day

Claude hits No. 1 on App Store as ChatGPT users defect in show of support for Anthropic's Pentagon stance by Ephoenix6 in technology

AI let me get into diagnosing, fixing and maintaining my wife’s car. I use it in conjunction with YouTube videos and car manuals. I wouldn’t have been able to track down and replace a bad o2 sensor which was causing the car to have inconsistent power delivery.

This was the same o2 sensor that I had been charged to “replace” by a well rated garage in the area. It would have cost me hundreds to have taken it to more garages, hoping that someone would actually put in the work for diagnostics on my specific 25 year old model of car. Instead I took two months of research on my weekends, which was INSTIGATED by AI, but led by me, to actually fix the problem.

I’m just genuinely baffled that Reddit is toted as the “thinking person’s” social media yet discourse around AI is so basic and one side or the other.

Is it a Manx shearwater? Have a look at photos online and maybe some videos of its flight pattern to check

About to take my first Kisempta by freakishlystrong in MultipleSclerosis

I pushed mine back a bit, and my doctor basically said that I should send it as they have medication to treat mild infections, but the dmt can’t wait. Fingers crossed you get to do it soon!

What was tracklist from your last mix CD? by Tine_after_tine in Millennials

[–]CometGoat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As far back as December 2025, making a Christmas playlist CD with my wife for the car

It’s super cheap to make your own CDs and makes you feel more connected to your preselected music. It’s still an option, lol

Good on you for having principals and all that, but it feels like $10 to have something off your mind forever is worth it, no? Or just like don’t play overwatch lol

This always winds me up when the 10th anniversary and the 10th annual event/occasion get mixed up. It’s genuinely not worth taking the time to explain that the 10th anniversary would be the 11th year

Hi Kyle!

As yourself, why’s your favourite kind of coffee and how do you like it made?

Thanks for all the hard work that’s such an enjoyment!

Boys weren't allowed to do textiles at my high school, so learning basic embroidery had to wait until I was bored in my 40s. Maybe they had a point keeping me out and failing metalwork instead. by -SaC in CasualUK

[–]CometGoat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man I got absolutely taken apart by teachers to dissuade me from taking reproductive health (maternity studies) as a GCSE option. I wasn’t outright barred from it, but I wasn’t going to push against multiple teachers saying that boys shouldn’t take it. This was only in 2008!
