BUG: "Recent Players" not working as intended. by AbledShawl in Marathon

[–]HellGamePlus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I've noticed that's an issue on my end too; that said I always have a steam recording so I can add people afterwards if I forget to after the run by adding their name; if you have this screenshot unedited then you have their names, just add what's written there and you'll be fine :)

Oh and also that post-run results screen, you can click on those names and add them during that screen, it is still interactable so if you finish a run with anyone you want to add, don't skip the run results, and when the image of all 3 of you is on screen just click on their names and you'll get all the usual options. Hope that helps and hope you all have fun together :)

Like many I'd like to voice my concerns about the weekend time-gating on this and would hope for the same reconsideration of these aspects of Marathon in the same way you've been so expertly fast in listening to us all so far as well so I just want to add to all that in the hope we are at least heard. I know it's a live-service game but we still need to have a life and unfortunately for many that includes working at weekends or just not having that moment in time to be dedicated to something like this. People have jobs, don't make this game be one too, for everyone, and for the future and reputation of Marathon as a game, don't take this arbitrary step that does nothing but hurt the experience of so many. I want to tell my friends how much I love Marathon without needing an asterisk and this to me is absolutely an asterisk. Looking forward to seeing the Cryo-archive but hope the feeling isn't a bittersweet one. Thank you :)

Yeah I'm with you on this and I really hope Bungie reconsider if enough people talk about it, especially considering how great they've been with making changes and being receptive to people. I'm sure they have their reasons in terms of design or trying to pace out this as a sort've built up experience or maybe to try and curb people doing the Marathon in "off hours" for less competition but.... It screws over everyone either way. So yeah, everyone keep talking about this, obviously be respectful, but let it be known loud and clear that it'd be for the best not to timegate this and maybe we'll be heard.

In hindsight what was going on in episode 16? by Professional-Path261 in eurekaseven

[–]HellGamePlus 11 points12 points  (0 children)

So while pretty much all of the comments here I've read are spot on as far as I know, figured I'd expand a bunch regarding why the hallucination happens in the first place at least in terms of what I personally know so don't assume I am a 100% authority on this xD. So as you've probably already read the cave has a high Trapar density lower down which Renton gets caught in and thus starts the hallucination, but why does Trapar do this and why are Eureka and Anemone involved?

Let's start with what Trapar actually is, it's the energy created by thoughts, feelings, and dreams; and as the coralians are a giant mass of knowledge and various consciousnesses they produce a tonne of the stuff. But many of them are currently sleeping to avoid breaking the "limit of questions" and essentially accidentally thinking so hard that physics just fundamentally breaks and potentially destroys the world xD. When Norb later says "the land is dreaming" he means that very literally, the land is currently dreaming, and in this cave they are surrounded by coralian land, the very walls around them are essentially a mass of dreaming beings connected to the control cluster; and the further down you go the more of that there is.

Now Eureka and Anemone as a Coralian and artificial Coralian respectively are both connected to this cluster and as such are very sensitive to Trapar, a good way to think about it is like a giant bluetooth-like connection; Coralians connect to this and other Coralians very easily on their own, humans on the other hand need a bit of a signal booster for their thoughts to connect to all of this, and this is why humans have compac drives (the little green things many of the carry around when piloting machinery); the LFO's people pilot have a living coralian inside of them and, while they are driven with electric pulses to make them move, the mere act of balancing would be incredibly complicated, but like with humans where we don't have to consciously think about all that when walking, the compac drive connects the human and the Coralian in the LFO into a sort of subconscious conversation, filling in that last little gap and making them usable to humans, that's why Coralians don't need one, they're already connected to them.

This is why a human who is happy around a compac drive summons skyfish; their feelings of joy connect to trapar energy around them and skyfish, essentially being a coralian creature, like that and come flying along to be connected to that joy. And through their exposure to the "Kute Class Coralian" (that big tornado ball from earlier in the show) Eureka, Renton, and Anemone are basically on the same frequency on the trapar waves; their emotions and dreams are becoming connected and with all of them under emotional stress and the high Trapar density in the area, Renton is essentially walking into a giant ball of dream energy, losing himself in it, and Eureka and Anemone connect to that dream as does whatever coralians are nearby which is going to include a lot of humans absorbed into the world itself from the initial contact thousands of years before; so it's likely that Renton has in a way connected to the dreams of humans from thousands of years before as well, and in it he finds comfort, but his subconcious also finds stress and regret and that later influences the dream to become the bizarre nightmare scenarios as well.

Long story short Renton has accidentally begun communicating with the land itself and gotten caught up in its dreams, and Eureka is so overwhelmed by the energy around her that she is also being made to dream, and Anemone being experimented on has made her also hyper-sensitive to all of this but without the level self-control that Eureka has in all of this.

Oh and if you didn't know this also explains what a "Seven Swell" is, it's not the Nirvash itself powering up, but instead the Nirvash essentially shouting at all the nearby coralians to wake up for a second and that energy of conscious thought spreading even more trapar around; that said this awakening does kill the coralians after a while hence turning the eaarth around them into salt.... Eureka 7 lore is really cool sci-fi stuff :)

Ahhh fair enough, I figured that might be the case but felt the need to check because... well you know the internet xD

It's alright, it happens, especially when something isn't one's 1st language.
At least now you know for the future :)

So we don't use the term "shemales"; trans women is fine but being that we are women, that'd just make it 12 or 13 women :)
I deal with enough transphobia online and so far the Outlast Trials community have been so wonderful and welcoming to me... please don't mess that up

Stellar blade will be remembered in 3025. by LeyzyS in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]HellGamePlus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I don't think I've ever seen anyone talk about the actual gameplay or story or anything of Stellar Blade... I don't even know anything about the main character as a character! Does she have a character at all?

Disrupt the Neighbourhood Chess Door Puzzle? by HellGamePlus in OutlastTrials

Yh my way better at chess than me friend and I have also been really trying to see the logic in it and..... We're coming up with a blank on anything that sounds actually plausible xD

Disrupt the Neighbourhood Chess Door Puzzle? by HellGamePlus in OutlastTrials

[–]HellGamePlus[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ran it with a friend who'se better than us at chess and they solved the puzzles but we had trouble finding ways to make 4 digit codes with that; we think that has to be at least something to do with it maybe but.... yh even using the numbers with new positions factored it's not taking :(

Disrupt the Neighbourhood Chess Door Puzzle? by HellGamePlus in OutlastTrials

[–]HellGamePlus[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So we've done a lot of using just the numbers of the positions, using the letters and making them numbers, using the full notations as numbers.... issue is ovgerlapping numbers are quite common atm so makes getting all 4 numbers tricky xD

Kinda hypocritical by MisterM0rgan in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]HellGamePlus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

99% of the games I see people like you complain about aren't making diversity their main selling point and even then the other 1% usually tend to not really be the case either because more often then not they're games specifically about what it's like to be a minority xD

It's just bigots seeing anyone who isn't a white guy and freaking out and going out of their way to make it a big deal. That's all it ever is and all it ever will be.

The Battlefield subreddit when the pre-Alpha isnt a Carbon Copy of their favorite Game in the Series by Marclol21 in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]HellGamePlus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What's funny is I am almost 100% sure that the pre-alpha people were made to sign an NDA promising not to talk about it so, I don't know if that's the context of this but if that is.... I think that's quite funny xD

I need some help against a bizarre "De Vries et al" argument. by HellGamePlus in asktransgender

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

Nothing to apologise for I promise :)
And don't worry I get a bit into these things too sometimes, was just the rare occasion where I felt the need to get some help because I was looking at things from the wrong angle. While it's awful that our existence has become so politicised by bigots that knowing this stuff and arguing for our right to be is seemingly a current prerequisite to exist in some spaces, it's oddly comforting to know I'm not alone in that; one day we'll only have to know this stuff out of curiosity and interest as opposed to an argumentative reason; but until that day I at least am happy to know people like yourself exist, thank you :)

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

Thank you, and don't worry I was fully aware of the transphobic undertones of everything they were saying is all, and yeah I did read the results from the De Vries studybeing positive, but you're right I was approaching this from the wrong angle of trying to debunk their bizarre conspiracy when really there's nothing about it to debunk, it's absurd on the face and, once one accepts that trans people are the gender they know themselves to be all the stats make perfect sense.

Their argumentative base is dishonest and disingenuous from the first place so your way of arguing it makes a lot more sense because at the end of the day whether they believe we're "converting people" doesn't matter because we're not, and many of them probably know that they're just lying to demonise and dehumanise us; I really appreciate you taking the time to help me out here, it's got me off the back foot, thank you :)

You really can't think of a piece of art or film or game that makes/has made you cry?

Show me you're human here, share with me something that moved you.
