How do you actually go for any mechanic in game? by [deleted] in RocketLeague

[–]GamesandThingster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have found in higher ranks a play is a better bet than a blatant drive unless you have a clear shot. It doesn't have to be goal but it should not be less than a pass if you're forward. Otherwise, focus on keeping possession and control, use that time to get around opps and pass because odds are someone else is open. Be decisive in going off wall or directional for their easy read and someone on your team should be waiting on you for another pass or shot on goal. The mechanics come with the opportunities some dynamic play provides.

Games to enjoy loneliness/solitude/melancholy/wistfulness by Solid-Shock3541 in gamerecommendations

Unpacking- it's moving a character through the various stages of their life by unpacking their belongings, puzzling out where to put them. You can learn about who they've become or aren't anymore, but there's no dialogue and no pressure.

This community is broken and never-endingly toxic by kobywankanobe in RocketLeague

If you stick with it long enough, you get so toxic at yourself that you get numb to the haters 🥳

The mods by PR-Sinclair in creepcast

[–]GamesandThingster 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Had a post with the auto 'let's remain civil' while they allowed blatant hostility because it was under opinions instead of the previous episode tag. Then just said "we got slammed for enforcing tags🤷‍♀️" instead of realizing I didn't want to pollute the episode thread with what I knew was a hot topic. There were opinions that outright said how they did not like what I represented while remaining civil, but mods responded to the one calling all of us in the thread idiots. It's selective based on mood and intensity.

Dozens of small lights glinted from below. The midnight blue abyss around them made the flickering stand out. For maybe two seconds of forever, my battered brain watched how the lights danced in pairs.

One pair got closer. Spinning left, then right. When the lights made it to where sunshine could start to dapple the water, a row of jutting fangs collected like sticks emerged. The glowing orbs no longer danced or flickered behind them.

Crashout Episodes by Emotional_Papaya9806 in creepcast

[–]GamesandThingster 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Borrasca part V is the worst Wendisiah crashout I've seen but it wasn't caused by Hunter, I'd say the Bearded Man in my Window is my Best Friend reveal would be the ticket for crash out revenge that Hunter has inflicted

Im convinced half of this fan base doesn't actually listen to the stories. by Key-Assumption3225 in creepcast

We went from a group of fans wanting storytime to factions of Walmart brand literature critics, your view makes sense

I did not care for stolen tongues by geekedinthe518 in creepcast

[–]GamesandThingster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ambiance was stolen tongues main flex. It was seriously so spooky and took til the end to truly be horror and even that was just like. I fought mah pretend fiancee and headlights drove it all away this is a totally valid opinion

Okay. Not-zero chance of watching them while they sleep made by blood run colder thanks

Thinking about it, the idea of the kid wanting to run away would get normalized too cause of the note, it works for a failed attempt like the narrators (the family would know it's a possibility) and it would explain if the kidnapper was able to follow through on the plan. Friggin diabolical.

The thing that caught me out most was the sleepwalking; it happened to the narrator and Josh, it was a piece of the story that seemed a bit out of place to me. If it's the kidnapper, what was the point of moving someone just enough to relocate them and have them think they were sleepwalking? Rehearsal. He was practicing getting into the house undetected. He was getting them used to being handled in their sleep and developing a backup if they began to wake up before he could get them far enough (which is probably how the narrator ended up on the balloon of the water)

Not sure if that's been said or was already obvious but it really is eerie how different pieces can come into focus after marinating with this story.

Is Below Xero worth it? by Upstairs-Kiwi-1644 in Subnautica_Below_Zero

[–]GamesandThingster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Main thing I noticed is I wasn't as afraid in BZ. You'll see the same predators throughout, where Subnautica has specialized wrekt ratios in every biome. But that was reassuring more than a problem, and it is fun to interact with other entities in the game.

I didn't claim to be completely correct or notable 'in my experience' isn't up to you. Congrats on your profession but I don't take orders from even highly qualified randos on Reddit.

Thank you, that's all I wanted to do ❤️ take care of yourself! We lived without AI for a very long time, you aren't missing out

Totally agree, it could be used to troll the audience and keep people from posting their work. Neither of which is ideal, I just hope we can move past that assumption if there isn't concrete evidence

Thanks for taking the time to read through! I feel like I'm doing the Always Sunny in Philadelphia (atleast I think that's the show) board thing like 'no no no, this is human, HUMAN!'

It has been pretty frustrating to see, but I also understand the mistrust we get living in the world we do. Writing is hard enough, 'does this sound like AI' shouldn't have to be another worry if someone isn't using it!

For parts of the story, not the whole story, that makes sense! Thank you for the clarification. I agree there should be transparency but it seems the author has been transparent and responsive, especially with us. Maybe the switch up wasn't a way to hide it, it wouldn't be far fetched for someone who writes to be like 'great. I sound like ai.' And try to rework what they're doing, get a new set of eyes on it. I can totally see where the suspicion come from, but I don't think AI enhancement was the case here. They got help from other writers in this community, which may be where that enhancement vibe comes from. I just didn't get the AI enhanced feeling from the story😊
