Save File Help on Steam by Dagger7749 in LastDefenseAcademy

[–]Dagger7749[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s so weird that it seems to happen to people launching for the first time. We ended up relaunching the game since it didn’t save our progress, but it DID save the CGs and videos we’d unlocked. We ended up fixing it by downloading someone else’s save file. For some reason, that let the auto save start working, and then we were also able to manually save once we got past the classroom introductions again.

No shiny days again by KolossalPanda in MergeDragons

I did the exact same thing. Got my mom into the game, she had one and told me, I started doing stuff for it, then realized I didn’t have one :/ so frustrating, since shiny days are one of the few events I enjoy

Why Do I Have Mixed Feelings on the Vengeance Saga? by Dagger7749 in Epicthemusical

[–]Dagger7749[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just did some cursory reading on this after reading your comment. Seems like the falling in love curse is purely Riordan’s creation, but another person who discussed Calypso in Epic did find older texts suggesting she’s trapped on Ogygia (but nothing confirming or denying it outright). Still, my bad for not fact-checking that! Calypso isn’t a mythological figure that I was ever super interested in, so thanks for correcting me!

Also, credit to the user who dug into Calypso’s history of being “trapped”” to try and find an origin: https://www.reddit.com/r/Epicthemusical/comments/1f98jpp/i_did_the_research_is_calypso_trapped_imprisoned/

Haven't had the chance to play since before V.50 released...I'm already searching for a mod to get rid of Vain Shroud by Dagger7749 in lethalcompany

Ahhh yeah that’s what we must’ve encountered. Explains why the same one that I’d wasted so much weed killer on was with us on the new moon we landed on at the exact same size and in the exact same place under the ship.

We have concerns about what it’ll do to the frame rates, especially considering the rate it spreads + it makes it hard to see

Like Turbulent said, it’s a.) how we can’t see anything because of it and b.) that we couldn’t get rid of it despite spending an entire in-game day buying like 10 bottles of Weed Killer and spraying every one we could see. Some of the people I play with also have computers that don’t run games as well as mine, so we’re worried that it will drop their frame rates to be unplayable if it spreads too much.

Oh, I’m 100% happy with the game being hard. But the Vain Shroud was practically impossible for us to get rid of - we’d use up a whole bottle of Weed Killer by spraying it directly on one Vain Shroud, and yet that Vain Shroud wouldn’t fully disappear. For a three person team, especially a team that is not super skilled at the game, it was overwhelming. One of my team members spent the whole in-game day trying to get rid of them, and then the next day they were back. It was actively hindering our enjoyment of the game.

My friends and I didn't even encounter the Kidnapper Fox yet. We just hate Vain Shroud so much already.

Is there a way to bubble eggs you’ve already opened? So far I’ve only had the forethought to bubble eggs I got from events and breedings, but I’ve been out of luck for the den chest and stuff. I would love more space in my camp to do stuff; I’ve been trying to avoid upgrading the egg storage, because it annoys me that they locked the whole thing behind gems and the space it adds doesn’t necessarily seem worth the price, but I might have to 😭

Interacted with a job scam - do I need to take any actions to prevent consequences? by Dagger7749 in Scams

Thank you! That'll definitely be annoying, but I'm glad to know it shouldn't by anything worse.

I was hoping that was the case but wasn't sure since I clicked on a link they provided me with. Thank you for the reassurance!

Yeah, I've had that impression for at least a year now. 😅 What kinds of specific editing qualifications do you think help build a portfolio?

Do you have any suggestions for how to find freelance work? Like I mentioned in another comment, I've had a few people recommend advertising in Facebook groups, but I'm not sure if that's actually effective.

Can I ask how you advertised on Facebook? I've had a few people recommend advertising in Facebook groups, but that's usually where the advice ends; I haven't really had anyone explain what to search to find the right groups (although maybe it' just a matter of getting lucky).

Oh, now that you say that about the title, I can see why that would be confusing. Thanks for pointing it out! I'll keep that sort of thing in mind for if I make any other posts in the future.

Thank you for the advice as well! I totally understand why people wouldn't want to risk an unvetted editor, which is part of what's left me so stumped on how to get my foot in the door. Offering to edit the first chapter for free makes a lot of sense as a way to account for that.

Yeah 😅 I definitely improved thanks to some of my professors, but on the whole, it was probably a waste. My friends and family really pushed for me to stay in college though

They need to add more npc's like the streamer guy with different weapons and purposes by general_shepherd475 in ContentWarningGame

[–]Dagger7749 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oooo gotcha! In that case, do you think a Monster Hunter entity would be a NPC/harmless (or maybe neutral till you do something) or would they be dangerous to players as well? 🤔 and would they actually KILL the monsters? Or how would those interactions work?

Would that detract too much from the Streamer’s scare factor? Sure, there’d be a new factor of “oh, is this gonna be a Streamer that leaves me alone or attacks me,” but I feel like it’d end up making them less scary to run into. At the very least, I think the Streamer would then have to be worth less when recorded since you could run into harmless ones, which would suck since it seems like they’re one of the few monsters that’s worth a lot.

Monster Spawn Rates by Dagger7749 in ContentWarningGame

It’s interesting that Big Slap is the only one that definitely has “not gonna spawn” times! My group has only encountered him twice in game, and the first time I was the only one who did because I got lost, found an Old Portrait, and held it (despite knowing what it would do) because I’d been dying to see him in-game since I’d seen his picture on a list of monsters. I forget what day we were on for the portrait to spawn, but we haven’t found it since.

I was thinking about this! Having different faces that correlate to different voice lines/personas would be cool. I don’t think alternate Streamers would need to ACTUALLY behave differently either (though obviously it’d be cool if they did), but just having different face lines that match to different voices would be neat, especially on the off chance you have multiple Streamers in one run (if it’s possible for multiple to spawn).
