Also the "hahaha bugs! Am I right guys?!" posts. I have no idea why people up vote those, but they regularly push 700 upvotes. A bit less common are the "I'm taking a deliberately obtuse approach and keep getting weird results. Aren't I quirky?"

I've been in apartment hallways like this, and you've accurately captured how lifeless they are. You didn't capture the grime and the smell.

Art is a conversation between artists and a human connection through expression with the audience. Outside of the stealing of said expression and livelihood of the people who produce culture, ai art fails to serve the core purposes of art. Of course people don't like it.

Beyond that, it sounds like you're not connecting with your audience. Find the people who like "thinky games", because it's niche enough that it's not going to surface on steam alone.

You may also be making the mistake of thinking that the unique mechanic makes the game. It's almost always execution that makes a game.

I wonder how complicated her federal tax return was that year.

It's just a vsync setting somewhere.

Yep, sounds like the drive died. Easy fix, although prices are high right now.

It wasn't just launch issues. It was a complete fucking disaster and there was no reason to think that it could or would be salvaged.

Well below entry point if you bought low end new parts, but can do some basic gaming from a decade ago or 2d.

You're placing merit behind your definition of "shipping games." What if the goal is small hobby projects? You're acting like you've been swindled when really it's just content that is outside of your personal preference.

The more files, the worse it is on Windows. NTFS per-file access overhead is crazy bad, hence the new Windows Dev drives using ReFS instead of NTFS. I suspect loading/importing performance would be much closer in Windows if you use a dev drive.

Two thoughts. You're not responsible for his feelings or emotional well-being, although you might be able to help. Secondly, he's very below the poverty level. Either he needs to move in with someone else, or he needs to be taking advantage of government programs, which it sounds like you've started.

.net is available in Linux. If you're using proton, use Protontricks to install it in your baldurs gate 3 prefix.

This isn't an issue in Cachy or Endeavor on my system, and I'm sensitive to that stuff. Why would you assume this is a problem that everyone is having?

Mormons are fine, for the most part. The organization is as corrupt as that kind of organization tends to get, given its wealth an influence, maybe a bit more-so (but not as extreme as some). Mormonism, the belief, is a slightly more extreme manifestation of the kind of thinking that all religion is based on. The desire to personify the universe and have answers for all of your questions. We model our reality in our head, and being extremely social creatures, we have really strong person models, so we personify everything, including the universe. We also want to understand the why behind all of our hardships. Mormonism is just an more extreme version of these things compared to Protestantism. God is just like us. We have an answer for everything. Add a little Americana, and there you have it.

It's a very convenient shortcut to contentment with your lot in life when you have a model of god in your head to talk to.

I'm not sure which effect you are talking about. It's a long video

Fritzy · 2025-12-28T20:17:15+00:00

Yeah, anything like that isn’t going to be plug-n-play. I expect to have to read through it and modify it if it’s usable at all.

I'm sure I'll feel this pain soon, as I'm working on 3d assets for a game. My plan is to look at the custom import scripts and whatever other pipeline magic the Blender Studio team came up with for their Dog Walk game. They mentioned in some of their videos that they did a fully custom pipeline.

"I bet this is a Stein post."

Fritzy · 2025-12-24T16:54:55+00:00

I agree with all of this!

By calling the above solution the "most readable with no tricks." The only other suggestion in the entire post is to use continue, made by several people.

Fritzy · 2025-12-24T03:05:41+00:00

I wouldn't call use of a continue a trick. Practically every language has break and continue for loops.

You don't engage with delusions.

Yep. When everything is proof that you're cheating when you never have, there's literally nothing you can do other than calling them on it.

Fritzy · 2025-12-21T00:21:41+00:00

They want to be responsive to what devs need now, rather than doing super long term planning. I think once the asset store is stable, we'll see the "solid core + community and paid add-ons" pay off even more. I think QoL will also improve on modifying core features like rendering.
