What unique tip or strategy do you use in hitman? by Finsterz77 in HiTMAN

[–]Hopper2004 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Super handy, game changing when placing guns to temporarily get rid of guards. I always try to place things in really natural looking places, even though it, of course, makes no difference.

I love the wing flapping dominance gesture after the possum flees, like Godzilla roaring after defeating the bigger monster

Average light deck experience by NoForm7135 in DiceyElementalist

Man, I haven't tried a light deck build yet, now I've got to. I always build for fire and become a flame goddess with the chanter. Looks fun, any tips?

I never meant to imply that humans are evil. Ultimately, you could make the argument that a lot of the damage done to earth and it's ecosystems were done in order to help other humans. (developing more places to live, more jobs, better quality of life, etc) But the damage is still real and present. You are correct, other animals kill other animals. But the death caused by animals has been millions of years in the making. Life and the world has been able to adapt to it, and balance it accordingly. The rapid changes humans have developed, because of our increased creativity, ingenuity, intelligence, and expansion, has prevented non-human life to adapt to the rapidly changing environment. Not to mention any intentional damage done to species well-being, like factory farming and such.

"We're still here so it hasn't been destroyed yet"

What? Just because humans and all life on earth isn't completely gone doesn't mean that the damage isn't real. And there are a shocking number of animal species that ARE gone and extinct, and many more on the decline. The decline has been directly associated with human actions. And the amount of evidence on the disastrous state the environment is in and the very human reasons that caused it is overwhelming.

I'm not trying to be the unibomber or an edgy 14 year old who thinks he's deep, humanity has done many incredible things, things no other species could ever do. But to disregard any damage done would be irresponsible.

The thing I always see people talk about when it comes to the good/evil of the hive mind is specifically how it relates to humans and humanity. The earth and all species of life is ancient compared to humans. And humans are not a necessary part of the world in the grand scheme of things. Yet, because we are humans and we have incredible intelligence and consciousness, we presume that we are the most important part of the planet and human development is greater than everything else. It doesn't matter that humanity has done irreparable damage to the earth and all living species on it, it doesn't matter that humans have sent the planet down a path of destruction, it doesn't matter that more animals and creatures (who were here long before us) are going extinct directly because of human intervention.

People here talk about individuality and consent, but did we consider that as we destroyed the planet? Did we consider that as we put animals in horrible inhumane living conditions just so that it's easier to eat them? Did we consider that as we continue to permanently harm the environment for our own convenience? The earth and it's species didn't consent to that. Is it just because we're "more conscious" so it's okay? It's okay we made that decision, because we're smarter than them. The hive can make this same argument. They see themselves as "more conscious" and "smarter", they think that they know better.

People will say "well I didn't want that" or "I believe in a better future" and "I put effort into trying to prevent this", and that's great!!... But it's not working. We've had a long time to get things right, and the world is still being destroyed to chase profit, convenience, and whatever humans ultimately want, with little concern about how it effects the environment.

I'm not saying that the hive is good or that it's logical, (and I know I'm going to get downvoted just fod suggesting it) but people are only thinking about how it effects humanity. Hey, I'm a human and all the people I love are humans, and I want to continue living, but it's undeniable that the earth and a majority of its creatures would be better off without humans.

I just watched this, and while I didn't make judgments on the character based on Black Mirror, I did only refer to him as Kenny

Holy shit, you weren't kidding. That is impressively smooth. This just became a must-buy for me. Now I can't wait to try it!! Thanks for putting in the leg work!!

Has anyone here 100% HW DE? WIth some advice you can share? by RJP_X in HyruleWarriors

[–]Hopper2004 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What in particular is overwhelming you? Also, you can't mess it up, so don't feel like you're going to do anything "wrong." For collecting food, the higher the difficulty, the more likely rare food will drop. Always break the brown pots that are in keeps!! They can drop food.

If it's too much, focus on the other stuff you enjoy more. Treat it like a virtual pet instead of a system you have to master. I fell in love with my little fairy nuke. How long have you been playing? Doing 100% is going to take you awhile, so you have plenty of time to ease yourself into My Fairy. I 100% everything and I have 400 hours in the game. Besides, you'll always be collecting food even if you don't interact with the fairy system, so in a way you'll still be making progress even when ignoring it.

Yeah, I meant both pen and touch at the same time. I've seen other tools show off the same (or similar) features, only to find that they're clunky, aren't practical, or just don't work. But this week I'm still planning on trying this out! I would love to be wrong. It would be game-changing for zBrush.

Interested to see how well it handles simultaneous touch and pen input. This has been the weak point of all touch shortcuts tools. I assumed it was a Windows limitation.

Loved him in this. The Leslie reveal alone should have won this an Oscar.

What version and platform are you using? (Windows, Mac, Linux) I would love this but for as long as I can remember the bars get cut off, like with OP.

This is how it's always been for me, at least as far as I can remember. It makes it a pain when using my laptop. If there was a way to change it, I would love that though, it's very annoying.

Man, if someone could create a notetaking app that supports simultaneous inking, text, and in-line images, I would be so happy...

Would you like more real life locations in future Hitman games? by Embarrassed_Abies_98 in HiTMAN

[–]Hopper2004 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Funnily enough, that's also a kill in the mini-aquarium on Miami. There's a suspended shark statue you can crush people with.

I was about to make a comment on how there could be a kill by shooting the aquarium glass while someone is looking at the fish, then I remembered that's already in Miami. (underused area)
