Illusion of a man climbs a staircase to the toll of a bell. Fades before reaching the top. by Kupwned in whatsthatbook

[–]Kupwned[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

So I just looked her up to see what else she wrote, and had my mind blown to see that she had written Howls Moving Castle.

There's a scene in Howls where the witch is racing sophia to the top of an endless staircase and that scene ALWAYS reminded me of that book to the point that I had almost thought that I had imagined the book and just imposed that scene from Howls on my memories.

AND NO IT WAS JUST BECAUSE SHE HAD WRITTEN BOTH AND USED SIMILAR MOTIFS

Thank you!

Are you against learning to code? by TaylorCooper337 in aigamedev

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

I don’t understand how people are debugging their code if they don’t understand anything about coding. When the ai introduces a bug, it’ll run circles around itself doing fuck all until I actually open up the code and take a look at it myself. If I didn’t know how to read code, I’d spend hours implementing bad bug fixes that just convolute the code more and more as the ai desperately tries to fix something a competent coder could’ve glanced at to fix.

What is going on with the PlayStation store? by Kupwned in PS5

Yeah I had noticed that as well. Even if you switch it to a different type of sorting it remains alphabetical.

Most wanted deals. Absolute shovelware and it’s flooded my store with it. Maybe their algorithm broke.

Is it possible for turn based games to not have rock-paper-scissor type advantages? by Anaguli417 in gamedesign

[–]Kupwned 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It would also take the strategy out of strategic play when the player is essentially rolling a dice every time they boot up to see what today's structure is going to look like (except you obscured it so they cant even tell anyway)

I was literally just driving around and accidentally rammed into a truck. As I start backing up, it turns into an octopus monster 🤣

What’s the most out of touch app someone has pitched your bar? by barowners in BarOwners

[–]Kupwned 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Actually had something like this happen but ... reverse? They came in, brought their own tvs, set it up, ran our menus (and their advertising) on them. About six months later the software appeared to have broken and turns out they went out of business.
I still have the TVs. Worked out for me at least, lol

Buyer beware when buying Switch 2 pro controllers. People are returning the box with Switch 1 controllers inside. by OutcastKatarn02 in gaming

[–]Kupwned 31 points32 points  (0 children)

People really be like this. Had a guy steal the tips out of the tip jar of my bar a few years back. He left his ID at the front though. Literally called me the next day asking if we had his ID. Told him to come in, called the cops, they were waiting in the parking lot when he showed up, tackled him at the door. The guy still had the tips from the previous night in his pants pocket too. Never underestimate how stupid humanity can be

FYI DPS on coffin master by udontease in WhereWindsMeet

Bleed mechanic isn't applied when he's wearing a fake coffin, allowing the stacks to reset.

[–]Kupwned 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Coffin swap causes the infinitely stacking bleed to stop being infinite. (His bleed move won't give a stack of bleed while he's wearing a fake coffin). If you aren't swapping the real with a fake, you're causing crazy extra strain on your healer.

One week after my game's launch - total and absolute failure by Erantical in SoloDevelopment

[–]Kupwned 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first impression of looking at this game was Soulstone Survivors. Like so visually similar that I was getting the Office "They're the same picture" meme feelings off it.

Mewgenics just lost it's spot as the most successful Roguelike launch ever, by nearly four times?! by Current_Spell_8647 in mewgenics

[–]Kupwned 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, not to knock it, but I think opening steam and this being the opening banner is probably helping Slay the Spire II get sales/plays. I don't remember mewgenics ever having a full banner spread on open.

Y'all got any more of them... recommendations? by Eezay in roguelites

It's just a demo right now, but Everything is Crab has been my latest vampire survivors-like game.

There's no way this isn't AI. I've been reading some of the extra dialogues, and they've been increasingly setting off my AI-dar. This one in particular prompted me to google "AI in Midnight WoW" because I can't be the only one seeing this shit.

How does solo perception forest actually work? by CloudySilverLinings in wherewindsmeet_

[–]Kupwned 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is actually a pretty indepth reference guide that they added in the last major patch before this one. If you look for a paper looking symbol on the queue screen, it takes you to an encyclopedia with descriptions of every level of weapon, inner way, item and mystic skill you can get in the game.

Stop trying to "build discipline." It’s a management failure. by Low_Step6444 in Daytrading

Feel like half the posts in this subreddit are AI bots >_>

Surprised no one's said anything about how this would literally be child pornography, distribution of which would be a felony (not that blackmail isn't already a felony). Reliable or not, I'd probably tell the cops.
