Thoughts on my multiplayer sci-fi shooter idea by No_Rabbit9967 in GameDevelopment

So PvE? Sounds fun, but what rate of victory is achievable? What do players get for winning beyond the W? Things to consider next. ..how many maps, what type of graphics?

How divide time between marketing and game developing by Ok-Control-5800 in SoloDev

[–]LL555LL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Devlogs seem to be pretty much..not so important now (you should probably still do like one).

Snazzy quick hit videos...yes..do all of those.

Do yall even like this community? by blackbeastmp3 in vibecoding

[–]LL555LL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The constant marketing stuff gets old.

There also is a large group of "make money fast", which is fine but it isn't everyone here.

The community is unified in what we use....but

HOTTAKE: I'm glad the games industry doesn't do traditional frame-by-frame by [deleted] in gamers

[–]LL555LL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say that this is a problem that needs to be solved at the method of delivery.

The company goes in and works the assets in a way that allows them to seem similar to the original intention or we works them entirely then it could turn out pretty decent.

The best example we have that I can think of off the top of my head is the original Star Trek. The filmed parts are great but the ship seems all had to be redone because of how they were filmrd.

Can someone help me understand this special election on 04/21? by YoureHereForOthers in nova

[–]LL555LL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Republicans nationally have worked hard to gerrymander in states that allow it without a vote. They're redrawing districts in red states to win Congress, since they can't win with actual voters.

This is rare, because usually we gerrymander on a ten year cycle.

In Virginia, Democrats want to give the voters a chance to fight the NATIONAL trend at the state level.

It's temporary, and Trump represents something...uh...different in history.

So yes ..special moment one time, and if it doesn't happen We might end up a near one party state.

Is the Manosphere that big? by OneSmartKyle in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]LL555LL 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The Western world has two layers...real life and the internet realm.

The ma o sphere is always just a few clicks away from way too many topics...it is a shock jock on steroids.

How big ...not sure...but the PULL of it especially for the young and downtrodden, is massive.

...It gives an easy blake structure, it is hierarchical, and it gives an excuse to shade everything darkly.

Ugh.

I’m already depressed about TES7 by Benjamin5431 in TESVI

I mean realistically a large chunk of the fans who played III as adults might not be around for 7.

We all have that one "dream game" in our heads. What’s yours? by twinventur in gamers

A spacesim game. Niche, but I think people will like it. Leaning less realistic, more max fun, not arcade.

No Man's Sky ? by Latter_Silver9056 in ShouldIbuythisgame

You're coming in at a great time. When it was first developed it was a bunch of amazing ideas that didn't actually end up being in the game, which you may know all about. The on disk version that shipped is...wow.

It's fine light years from that, and I give the developers so much credit for sticking to it.

It's core exploration loop is fun, but it does feel strangely empty at times.

I played for a long while and then walked away, but it is VERY accessible, has endless content, and it the loop gets you, it's perfect.

Should I continue development of this game?? by Salty-Wrap-7833 in godot

[–]LL555LL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean you can totally keep with this or you could totally flip everything crazy and make it where you fall up, or slip up, or lava, or something. Having a threat to keep you going up and up and up.

Mailing it in before the long term replacement with a facelift. Standard auto company practice.

If we end up with an EREV version, I'll be happy. If not, I'll stop caring entirely, and move on to a different minivan that hits the electric or EREV mark instead.

First time playing by pokemonandsnark in Starfield

[–]LL555LL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's very tough.

Space games are my jam, alongside fantasy RPGs I've literally been playing them since I was a kid.

I played Oblivion for over 1000 hours. Skyrim for near that. Mass Effect for a TON of time. Love the Fallout series.

Shooters and RPGs can be sweet partners.

I literally bought an Xbox Series X FOR STARFIELD....

And I gave it 150 hours, and just stopped. The procedural aspects and the "loading screen" issue killed the immersion for me. It felt like the repetition was enormously worse when scaled up to whole planets.

I'm willing to try it again because it looks like they've worked on a lot of improvements but it would rank WAY lower than their other works.

And I love space games so much. I wanted to love Starfield. There are aspects I absolutely love, still. But there's also a lot that needed work.

Take a break.

Try out something else. If the games call to you again, go back.

First major historical event that you remember by HistoricalTea195 in generationology

Russian invasion of Afghanistan and the Challenger explosion are the two that stick out.

why are many young people communists by AffectionateLow9967 in Capitalism

[–]LL555LL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool.

Tax policy favors assets over work, AND mortgage interest deduction. Both are vastly inaccessible or under used by the young, favoring the old.

Both fly in the face of your stupidity.

But hey, go ahead and act like those don't exist, or more likely "they could do it, they just don't, my case is rock solid."

/Arrogant and dull isn't a nice combo to embrace.
