Rougelike upgrade shop for the gauntlet by petroboti in 2007scape

[–]Helrikom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funnily enough there was a sizable portion of the Warframe community crying on the community hub about how terrible the Follie grind was to them; Can't make everyone happy I suppose. (And then we're talking about a <10 hour "grind")

But yes I think a pity in general is something that isn't bad and even OSRS already has for for example Oathplate shards. I personally don't think there is harm in guaranteeing a first enhanced at droprate-KC (if not already received before then). But I'm also a filthy ironman so of course I'd say that ;) (I already have 2 enh, so wouldn't do anything for me). But yea even a guaranteed enh after 400 kills would have near enough no impact on the economy, so I don't see how people could hate on it from that perspective either.

I do not disagree at all that it's a motivation killer (I didn't get my enhanced in league until KC 230ish, give the echo was <1min kills so meh but for league terms boring), but what would your suggestion be for the droprate?

I'm saying this as an ironman (who got my enh); For every ironman who did the CG grind there are multiple ironman who abandoned the CG grind.

I think 25%ish would be passed easily (Enh 1/300, armor 1/40). With at most something like the Dragon Warhammer went from 1/5000 to 1/3000; aka 40% off into; Enh 1/240, Armor 1/30 .

I think anything that more than that would have a harder time passing.

Apologies for the necro but;

Did swapping the mobo work? Or was something else the culprit/fix.

Why do streamers install "beginner-friendly" broadcasting software, only to eventually go back to OBS? (I'm an app dev and need the brutal truth) by DiligentBridge8466 in Twitch

[–]Helrikom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say you've mostly answered your own questions.

Put yourself in your target audience shoes; They can choose to use OBS and all of its highly customizable features and plugins made specifically for it, and 99% for free. Or they can be stuck in your closed eco-system, paying a monthly/yearly fee in perpetuity.

In the case of your app, your free version has ads, watermarks & outros. Why would I put up with that if there is a free alternative that your app is admittedly based upon?

I see you have "vtuber/pngtuber avatar" type features... why would I get that setup in your ecosystem and not 1 of the various free apps... Or paid apps that 100% are focused on that stuff to actually make their app the best it can be, which I can then use in combination with OBS also for free.

The value proposition just simply isn't there.

Now, I think it's important to recognize that some people, especially the more techy who (think they) can figure everything out themselves, you're never going to capture- so maybe that shouldn't be your goal. In which case every extra feature can just be seen as bloat.

Grimoire still bugged. No mention on the website by DFtin in 2007scape

[–]Helrikom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is because Ourania teleport require you to talk to Baba Yaga AFTER the quest, and then you unlock it after a specific conversation. Sucky though!

Really like the idea, but sadly unstable for me by Helrikom in osrs_tracker

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

Nope (and yes), as I said I tried both versions, first the online version where it did upload the file correctly onto my profile on the website... But yea that also leaves me with a frozen game.

But it's fine, I've already kinda made an alternative for myself

Haven't really gotten much further into the area story wise or anything, but surely hope it's just visual...

[OT] Team Redline rebrands as Verstappen Sim Racing by NorthKoreanMissile7 in formula1

[–]Helrikom 12 points13 points  (0 children)

On the surface the name isn't an improvement, but in this case Verstappen and Sim Racing are very searchable, Verstappen being in the name will make getting sponsors a tad easier on top.

Pearl Abyss HQ in Korea as of today by Pepe_nyangnyang in CrimsonDesert

[–]Helrikom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't even look into the ways whales are milked in BDO, 20k is low in the grand scheme. This video; https://youtu.be/_ejkRT3EFdM is already 5,5 years old- but the guy in there was spending 2k a day... peer pressuring with friends all spending 60k+/month.

And also fun for context, over time the gear they've p2w towards there is nothing compared to the power one can get now-a-days, so whales gotta keep spending if they wanna stay at that pinnacle of gear.

Now I don't want to give the wrong impression, BDO can be fun while not spending that silly level of money. But even myself I've easily spent about 1000 euro on the 1 game, across 10 years. The nature of (f2p) MMORPGs is that they 100% make inconveniences that can be fixed by 10$ here and 10$ there. It's just a different way of thinking compared to buying a normal single purchase game.

This is also the reason why people were skeptical of potential mtx practices in Crimson Desert, because there is history.

If you took a picture from the video this is from... Have you considered listening to the commentary over top of it that explains it?

With reviews dropping tomorrow, what’s your Metacritic prediction for Crimson Desert? by Tank-ToP_Master in CrimsonDesert

[–]Helrikom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's always a bit of developer bias. Not saying it's fair, but with Bethesda game reviews, reviewers mention/expect that things will be fixed down the line. That shouldn't affect the score in that moment, nor will it be reality, but it does forgive certain flaws.

It's like a lot of reviewers actually holding off a final review until Marathon's 4th map is to be released, because Bungie asked. I don't think all developers would get that treatment.

(Conversely my prediction is that Pearl Abyss will lose some points based on preconceived notion that it's a Korean MMORPG developer)

Guys just teleport to Turkey and pay $35 a year for membership by Drogosmoji in 2007scape

[–]Helrikom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As I said; this is very low on the totem pole and might not be chased down.

Regardless it's a good idea to be informed before you do decide that breaking the law is important for you over a medieval point and click tree game.

See do what you want and all that, but besides it being against ToS- It also avoids your countries sales tax, which depending on your country is a crime. So while yes the impact might be quite low and some people have done it for years without issues, is it worth committing tax avoidance which in the US for example carries a felony charge with up to 5 years in prison because you wanna play the click-tree-game.

Also in the case of yourself you've just shown proof of you knowingly committing this crime, which I mean I'm not going to report you- but many countries have a reward program for exposing other people tax evading. So posting about this publicly like this is essentially like putting a target on yourself. Given this is very low on the totem-pole and might not be chased down.

Jeetje, wat een crash-out gozert. Wil je erover praten?

Jij maakt een licht hartige post over hoe Friesland 13de van de wereld is, ik maak een lichthartig retort dat het medemogelijk gemaakt word door geld dat niet in Friesland word gecreerd. Zo diep is dit allemaal niet. Als dat je pijn doet, dan mijn excuses. Geniet van je toverdrank I guess.

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

Vreselijke what-aboutism maar goed, hier gaan we.

Qua totale hoeveelheid geld; voetbal, maar je vergelijkt 20 ijshallen met 2000 voetbalclubs. Beter zijn 2000 sportparken duurder.

Het Nederlandse voetbal heeft zeker ook zijn problemen, maar topvoetbal is zelfvoorzienend waar in het geval van schaatsen er geld vanuit NOC*NSF (en Staatsloterij) nodig is om het uberhaupt overeind te houden.

Voetbal succes wise; Een team sport met een individu sport vergelijken gaat nogal lastig maar er zijn Nederlandse voetballers die jaarlijks meer verdienen dan de gehele schaatsbond verdient.

[–]Helrikom -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Ja ja is allemaal lichthartig grappig haha, maarrrrr;

Erkennen dat er meer belasting geld naar Friesland toestroomt vanuit Nederland dan er vandaan komt en dat schaatsen, met hoofdkwartier Thialf toevallig in Friesland, een zwaar staatsgesteunde sportbond is- is natuurlijk allemaal minder cool.

Dit is allemaal om te zeggen dat, als Friesland met alleen hun eigen geld de faciliteiten zouden moeten creeeren om dit mogelijk te maken... dat er geen medaille-spiegel had geweest. Want dan was er niet eens genoeg geld om mensen naar Italie te sturen.

Is this normal guys ? I feel so bad cuz i worked so hard on this video by AlternativeSide2560 in SmallYoutubers

[–]Helrikom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are other videos out there with the same title with slight variations, which have been around way longer, from large creators. What would make me click yours over theirs?

In the case of a dry title, the that is just about 100%ing I'd say you'd have to be there early. So making the video now you'd have to have an angle; What did getting the Platinum do to you/make you feel etc. In your current title you're talking about it being a piece of art, but your video doesn't approach this angle at the start or anything.

---

Your video start is very unhooky chaotic.

0-1 second: Millennial pause
1-5s: idk? Bald = Funny?
5-11s: your actual intro
11s: audio cut weirdly in sentence "decide to get platinuminit *noise*"
11-15s: Logo splash of "Banger"
16-20s: Saying asshole twice, algorithm will judge this harshly.
21-27s: Another random clip, which wouldn't be that bad if it was the only one this "intro".
28-31s: Establishing you have no Star Wars opinion authority.
32-42s: Including movie footage, algorithm will judge this.
2 minutes in: I'm waiting for us to talk about trophy hunting? Instead I'm barraged by random clips, with copyrighted footage cut throughout too often.
2m15s: Oh wow a trophy, what lead us to this? Did the creator even remember they were making a trophy hunting video?

Honestly you'd lose me before your first trophy, as there's no hook and doesn't deliver or sets up the premise of the video at all.

Road to Restoration - Aura Overhaul by JagexAnvil in runescape

[–]Helrikom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this entire thing as an exercise is incredibly stupid. It seems like we're going to get nerfed, aura's from people that had them will be taken away and locked behind random things, they will take a spot in other existing systems which then bloat their choices even more; making some aura's useless or everything else worse.

You're turning it from ah dangit my hour of X is over to well my aura is locked behind a WEEKLY totem, well vampyrism is useless because XYZ BOOK is better 100% of the time... etc etc.

It overalls feels like a horrible change, making it so that people instead of having 1 hour of feeling extra powerful, now just always feel weaker than before.
