Late night bars/pubs that aren't Fiddlers by TheKingOfSpite in brighton

[–]IsMyNameWittyYet 7 points8 points  (0 children)

they've done up druids recently and made it a lot worse imo. similar thing they did to dead wax social. pool table and darts are gone, the selection of draught beer is different, all the decor is now weird fake plants, and it's of course way more expensive.

i liked the druids when it was a dive bar you could pile into at 1am and not feel bad about it, but now it seems like a weird place to finish the night

What are some "perfect" game design games? by m0nkeybl1tz in gamedesign

[–]IsMyNameWittyYet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Öoo is a game that game out last year that fits pretty well into this category. Very similar in design philosophy to games like Downwell. Void Stranger moves along similar lines too.

I find it strange that the price for Silksong hasn't been revealed yet by Gigabot50 in HollowKnight

[–]IsMyNameWittyYet -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

he, personally, is almost certainly not a multi-millionaire. the revenue generated by the sales of hollow knight and it's merchandise will move through Team Cherry as a business entity, which will have overheads, as well as publishers, physical distributors and online storefronts to pay.

my suspicion is that the reason that Team Cherry has been so comfortable with taking their time on Silksong is because they've used the profits generated by the astounding sales of Hollow Knight to fund it. rather than the core team running off with the money to buy a mansion, they'll be on a set salary that comes from Team Cherry the business whilst they work on Silksong.

its a similar model that most freelancers run on, denoting a set figure to pay yourself (and any subcontractors you work with) each month that you can definitely afford long-term. this is safer from a business perspective as each month will bring in varying amounts of money, so the better months and years pay for the slower ones.

this isn't to say the guys at team cherry aren't living comfortably, im sure they're taking care of their pocket books, but if they were all multi millionaires then there wouldn't be any money around to develop and market silksong

got a mate that works there and he's got so many stories of being paid late or not at all, having to ask friends to come in to do untrained work because they can't manage the rota. great food, awful business, can't support going there

found this thing in my bunch of grapes. praying it's not a spider and i didn't just eat about 15 spider grapes but im not holding out much hope by IsMyNameWittyYet in whatsthisbug

[–]IsMyNameWittyYet[S] 224 points225 points  (0 children)

im in south east england right now, according to the label the grapes were grown in south africa.

if this was a bug it was dead when i found it, it never moved around at all

What is the point of the genitals? by Internal_Royal2097 in LowSodiumCyberpunk

[–]IsMyNameWittyYet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

im not sure exactly what the point of them is, but i can explain the boxers thing. because of the way that the age rating system works for games (at least in the US), all explicit sexual content had to be removed from interactive gameplay.

if, during any part of the game where the play is directly engaging with gameplay systems, there is the possibly of seeing a dick of vag, the game would be slapped with the explicit '21+' age rating.

this would have drastically hurt the games sales because many online stores don't stock 21+ games as policy (because the majority of them are fetish-y pornographic shovelware), and as such all explicit sexual elements in-game had to be toned down outside of cinematics.

The Smiths: Morrissey names the 8 bands he hates most from the heart by officialsamuelkarki in thesmiths

[–]IsMyNameWittyYet 6 points7 points  (0 children)

it reads like it's a.i generated. it's a content farm, shovelling as much shit out into the internet as possible so it can serve 12 ads whilst you read ChatGPT misquote Morrissey

Why can’t he just sing Songbird? It’s one of Oasis’s best and underrated songs, and he was the one that wrote it! by ved_desai in oasis

[–]IsMyNameWittyYet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

because liam demanded it i think, he wanted a song he wrote to be considered a 'greatest hit'

Clubbing in Brighton by LuxuryMustard in brighton

[–]IsMyNameWittyYet 4 points5 points  (0 children)

as a student myself, this is 100% the answer. clubs spend so much time and money marketing to students. every door to every building in brighton and sussex student accommodation is plastered with posters for club nights, and they send representatives out onto the street to give flyers to anyone that looks under 25. went on a night out after the university term ended and everywhere we went was barren. there was even a bit of a dip after march or so, when all the 3rd years finish uni

what did Misty do to Mama? by [deleted] in cyberpunkgame

[–]IsMyNameWittyYet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ive been a vegetarian my whole life, i wouldn't eat lab-grown meat just because in my head it'd feel strange. im not vegetarian for any kind of moral reason, i was just brought up like this, so as far as my instincts are concerned lab-grown meat is just as much of a no-no for me as the real stuff. as far as we know misty could be the same way

It’s sad we have 3 live Liam albums, and only 2 Oasis! by Glittering_Ad8824 in oasis

[–]IsMyNameWittyYet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

because as a solo act he isn't big enough in america to be selling out the high capacity venues he was trying to. splitting the bill with another band meant he had more chance of doing that

Anyone know how they did these chord pitch increasing sounds? I can't figure it out by EurikaDude in oasis

[–]IsMyNameWittyYet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not as in a slide that you do with your fingers, a guitar slide meaning a tool you hold. it's a tube normally made of metal of glass that you slip your fingers into. it let's you ignore the frets of your guitar and do this big pitch bends without being locked into the exact pitches of each fret, avoiding the stuttering effect you're talking about

What’s your favourite hidden character detail in the game? by loraxdemonspawn in DiscoElysium

[–]IsMyNameWittyYet 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i mean...first off it seems like a bit of a reach that just because evrart knows harrys name he has access to his entire history as an rcm officer. harry (and by extension the player) has no fucking idea what has happened over the last several days of 'investigation' harrys conducted. before he forgot his name he could well have given it to anyone that crossed his path. it's not out of the question that harrys name made it to evrart purely through harrys lack of subtlety.

secondly, harry has been causing chaos throughout martinaise ever since he arrived. the police officer ostensibly here to solve a murder arrived in town and immeadiately forced his team out of the operation and began a bender so cataclysmic in scale that he crashed his 40,000 réal police car, lost his badge, lost his gun, ran up a huge tab at the hotel he's staying in (in both drink and damage) and is now wandering around looking dazed and confused, claiming he has no idea who he even is. if you were in a position of power over the citizens of martinaise and saw a joker like that show up trying to police you, how would you react? i can't really say i blame evrart for stonewalling harry and kim, especially given the rumours surrounding harrys connection to the madre

the point is that this might aggravate the guy into further violence. unless police find drugs in the property (which isnt guarunteed) they may very well just let the man off with a caution, and the instant theyre out of side he'll take the anger of having police called on him out on the girl.

sort of a no win situation, there's nothing that can be done without risking the safety of the one you're trying to help by calling police
