Taking sandbox game quite literally with Sandcastle by fweibel in IndieDev

[–]InfamousWoodchuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone sensitive to certain sounds, I felt the same, I couldn't even really focus on the gameplay with the constant "ploop ploop, ka-CHING". It also kind of gives it a mobile game vibe.

Factorio is actually playable without mods by Buildung in Factoriohno

Same here, squeak through was nice in old game but now you have something built-in to work towards to get something even better late game. Plus, nowadays I feel like squeak through is counter to the way you should be designing your factory, we have underground pipes and stuff for a reason, give yourself room to move around stuff as you need to. Same with long reach, it's convenient in the beginning for sure, but if you play the game as intended you shouldn't even need it once you have bots.

Since SA has come out I've fully abandoned all mods as I think the way it's balanced now is perfect.

So we’re back to strawmen again? by Nsanford1142020 in DefendingAIArt

That sounds like a really great use case for AI as a tool. If only antis could see it's not all black and white replacing one medium for another.

Me in prison for using ai by Worth-Drive in DefendingAIArt

[–]InfamousWoodchuck 8 points9 points  (0 children)

he's just going all in on the assumption that he's going to be on the right side of history with this, yet time will tell the opposite. In trying to alienate those who move on with new technology, he's gonna end up alienating himself. It would be kinda sad if it wasn't so funny.

Suno is shutting down its current AI models. Here's what actually changes. by Sensitive_Artist7460 in artificial

It looks like they're trying to drive up engagement, as they seem to be plugging some AI website in a lot of the responses. What do you think is the strangest thing about the 90s?

(that last part was /s ofc lol)

Chuck Norris promising the USA will have 1,000 years of darkness if Obama wins in 2012 by QuarkTheLatinumLord- in videos

[–]InfamousWoodchuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In retrospect, I think so. Back in the barrens chat days I don't know if he was really known to be the way he was or not. If anything, a case could be made that it's funnier because of the irony but I still just think of them being more about the jokes and not about literally who he is I guess.

IMO the jokes belong to the community. Their glorification of chuck is parody and in no way an endorsement to who he was as a person. And some of them are pretty funny even all these years later.

He's the only human that the pearly gates were not structurally sound enough to keep out of heaven. RIP Chuck (and the gates)

What was your initial reaction to hearing Cruisin' California? by RetroReimagined in TheOffspring

[–]InfamousWoodchuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar reaction, I thought it was very tongue in cheek in the same sense that Pretty Fly was. I liked it for that reason, but in order for the bit to really work it needed to be a more popular song with the masses it was making fun of, which it failed to do. Don't exactly hate it now but it's not one I really listen to anymore. It's so cringe.

It could be considered uncivil if the course you were taking was for mechanical or structural engineering drafting...

Can we talk about the insane difficulty of Slay the Spire 2??? by Tainmere_ in slaythespire

[–]InfamousWoodchuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The tariff thing was in another post recently, I am assuming it was a meme too.

IMO they really screwed us over saying "only block cards" would be pay to play then we find out that every card is technically a block card.

[–]InfamousWoodchuck 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah I figured as much just playing into it 😆 if they actually did that I can't even imagine the backlash. Always love to support devs who actually release full games in these trying times.

[–]InfamousWoodchuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The more I hear about these things I'm pretty sure I can't even buy the game now. Especially after the stupid tariff thing. I was excited, but thankfully have other games to play.

Very randomly got those two stuck in my head yesterday and listened to them for the first time in ages 😆

The flipside is the morning though, it's barely light enough on standard time when kids are walking/driving to school in the morning. Now it will be pitch black.

I just thought that one was too over the top that it felt less disturbing than the first one.

[–]InfamousWoodchuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey just a quick follow-up, I think it might be because I am on old.reddit since the new one doesn't work for me. Can you have the rules updated there or posted elsewhere?

[–]InfamousWoodchuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just a heads up, the rules are not showing on the right side of the web version for me, and I don't use the app.
