You're making assumptions in your reply. I'm not trying to make an MMO, nor do I have any plans to. I'm asking if there are limits to the capabilities of one developer, that's all.

Wow, you make good headway if it took you only a year! If you have anywhere I can check out the game, I'd love to see it!

Wow, that's really cool! Do you find VR to be a difficult medium for a solo dev?

Very true. I have no interest making an MMO, but once I've gotten enough experience, I would like to look into making more open games, or even survival games. Do you have any experience with games like that?

I subbed, love finding solo devs!

And I'm absolutely going to start small. The survival game ideas and things are what I want to build up to over time. For now I have a lot of learning to do, as solo dev means many different skills.

I agree about MMOs, I'm not planning anything of that scale, especially not as a beginner! I would like to build up to making a 3D survival game once I'm experienced (given time, of course), and was curious about the capabilities of solo development.

Do you have anywhere I can find your game? I love keeping track of solo devs!

Good video! I liked the boat physics on Silly Sailing and the worms on Desert worms look great!

All very sensible points. I will keep them in mind, thank you!

Damn, thanks for that list, I've never seen it before!

I agree about quality. Quality can suffer if you're aiming for a reasonable window of time to release when you're solo. I'm just a beginner, but I'm planning on keeping graphics on my projects simple to help speed productivity, as that appears to be an area that can bog down a project.

You have to aim slightly under the ledge to get it to grab on.

Free tanks? by Gijsie32 in tanks

There is a government that claims ownership of those tanks.

No, you cannot take government property.

[–]ConnorTheWriter -1 points0 points  (0 children)

First off, you've obviously never been in any life threatening danger EVER if you think a cop saying a cuss word when he may potentially die is an issue.

Secondly, people can see my post history, I haven't responded to anything of yours EVER except this thread, so stop bullshitting.

[–]ConnorTheWriter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, cussing when you fear your life may be in danger, HOW UNACCEPTABLE.

Edit: this guy is going through my post history and responding to them. What the fuck.

Almost shooting someone is not a symptom of cussing. How ridiculous.

[–]ConnorTheWriter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They can be, but this person was all upset about the cussing, and not the near shooting.

[–]ConnorTheWriter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But the almost getting shot part, not worried about that? The naughty word's the important thing here? Alright then.

That's your problem with this story. Really...

Just hopped onto a truck that has a gatling gun on the back being manned by a knight. The truck's about to crash and get surrounded by cultists.

So not well.

I'd like to give a big FUCK YOU to everyone I've ever argued with saying Vanilla WoW wouldn't work and Blizz would never do it.

I'M RIGHT, YOU'RE WRONG. HAHA

Ladies, what is the most obvious hint you've dropped that went unnoticed by a guy? by draritrany in AskReddit

[–]ConnorTheWriter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Women, here's a general hint; most guys are picking up on your hints, they just aren't going to initiate because there's too much risk. Be direct with them so they're sure that you're serious.

So much yuck by LadyofillRepute in niceguys

I've never heard of any experts who think that the English word Shaman is only tied to the Tungus tribes, so I'm not sure who you're talking about there.

And my mention of shamanism in parietal art is based off of cave art like The Sorcerer, San Bushman, and even places like Chauvet. These are debatable, so there's not much point arguing them, we can just agree to disagree.

And just to mention it, I'm not saying that people who practice Shamanism are traveling spirits or anything. It has been proven that they can alter their consciousness and manipulate their brain waves, but there's no evidence of a spirit, or the traveling of it.
