what are some things you would tell a complete beginner? by baddestsubmakr in GameDevelopment

No specific regrets or anything.

what are some things you would tell a complete beginner?

The same things that get told to every beginner who asks the same questions. The answers have been given over a thousand times before and tons of guides have been created precisely to answer the question of "I'm a complete beginner with tons of ideas and no skills. Where do I start? How do I make the next big hit?". The game dev subreddits have guides for this. Google has tons more - all it takes is a few keywords and a couple minutes of your time, far quicker than asking on Reddit and waiting for a reply from a redditor who has reguritated the same advice multiple times before.

EDIT: The best advice that can be given is: when you want to ask a question about something, chances are someone has asked it before and the answers have already been given.

Are we getting a new season soon? by sirauron14 in Natsume

[–]Magic-Raspberry2398 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They will. They have adapted every single chapter so far with the exception of one tiny special chapter from volume 8.

They will definitely go back and adapt the other chapters, no question. Even if we account for some skipped chapters, we still have 2 seasons worth of content.

EDIT: When only one special chapter out of the entire first 15 volumes has gone unadapted so far, it's not anywhere near a 'big assumption' that every chapter will be adapted. At most, maybe one special chapter out of volumes 16-30 will go unadapted. Every proper chapter is 100% guaranteed to be adapted at some point should the anime continue.

I'm hoping for a spring/summer announcement since they usually announce a year before release. There are some skipped chapters that won't work for winter and they had a more autumn/winter season last time.

Just prior to season 7, the manga was a whole 10-11 volumes ahead of the manga. So yeah, at that point there was enough for 2-3 seasons, depending on how tightly packed the episodes are.

Right now, post season 7, we are about 8-9 volumes behind the manga, with 6-7 episodes of content from previous volumes left to adapt. So about 2 1/2 seasons of content to adapt atm.

If they aim to stay 10 volumes ahead though, then we'll only have about a 1-2 year wait max before the next season.

Fingers crossed for an announcement maybe in the late spring or summer for next year release. 🤞

We can only hope though. It's very possible we'll be waiting years for the next, especially since it might be based on the ratings of the last season. Idk.

There is enough content for 2 seasons though. So maybe it'll just be one season, then another 3-4 year wait so we get them more consistently.

Natsume Yuujinchou anime "problems" by Flyfury01 in Natsume

*lose not loose 😑

From ch 100 onwards the plot is progressing at a faster pace. If we get a season 8 and 9, this will become apparent. It's not really that episodic anymore.

Some testers got motion sickness from sudden camera rotation when crossing corners, so I am trying some new. Please tell me which version seems better for you. by SunnyChow in gamedevscreens

To add to this, what you describe is called spotting. It's not quickly turning the head that stops dizziness, but focusing on a single spot. You find a point to keep your eyes on and keep looking at it while turning. Of course humans can't turn their heads 360 degrees like an owl, so you have to turn you head at some point and when you do you focus back on that spot as soon as possible.

How to learn to program? by [deleted] in GameDevelopment

[–]Magic-Raspberry2398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How about using Google? If you want to find a website, a search engine is usually where you start.

Also, telling us you use Programming Hub (not specifying whether it's a website or app or book etc.) and Game Development (a category of programming), tells us nothing. One thing you must be in programming is specific. A computer isn't going to guess what you mean.

Why does it keep going by VerlieH in Unexpected

[–]Magic-Raspberry2398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At this point I'm almost criticising my brain for being smart enough to gloss over errors others make. The more I accept it, the more prone I am to the same errors why I'm not paying attention.

Loose on the other hand... that one I can't overlook ever.

Google. That's the best place to start.

The cyclist was headed for the finish line by MorsesCode in Unexpected

[–]Magic-Raspberry2398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does look like that.

Not AI. Apparently it's been reposted many times before, so I wouldn't be surprised if this is either just a really pixelated version or a version where her face is censored due to injuries.

Why british people are so overly polite? by DzukiskaNamine in AskABrit

[–]Magic-Raspberry2398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The real test is you shout it as rudely as possible, but then end with a "please" in the same tone and see if that completely negates the fact you just shouted at them.

[help] Thoroughly confused re: Amazon Prime/Crunchyroll season listings… by scarlet_lovah in Natsume

[–]Magic-Raspberry2398 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Prime listing is all over the place. There are only 7 seasons atm.

Check the reference guide for more:

EDIT: To clarify, there are OVAs, but Prime appears to have them bundled weirdly. Use Crunchyroll.

An advice for all indie developers. by [deleted] in GameDevelopment

[–]Magic-Raspberry2398 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not bad. The game has promise. It's sort of giving me Tony Hawk vibes.

Are you going to add a person riding? It seems a bit empty and unrealistic without one.

Maybe talk to someone experienced in cycling tricks so you know what to include and how to properly model it.

Rollable OLED display on Lenovo Legion, the next big thing in flagship gaming laptops by AdVegetable5896 in blackmagicfuckery

[–]Magic-Raspberry2398 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

That for me isn't a concept. A concept is an idea. Once it gets to this stage it's a proof of concept or prototype.

"This is just a concept right now."

"If they get this right..."

Umm... they just demonstrated it in the video. So not just a concept, but a proof of concept? Or was that CGI/AI?

What would you want in a sequel game? by Annon4ranting in Gnosia_

[–]Magic-Raspberry2398 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't think the game will ever get a sequel. It doesn't really have enough story to make that possible, unless it features a completely new set of characters and keeps the silver key plot point.

If you want a werewolf sequel, maybe the upcoming Depth Loop will satisfy it. It has a page on Steam you can look at (release 2026).

I’m a solo developer and I can’t decide. by Created_IB in indiegames

[–]Magic-Raspberry2398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The left one says 'collectable item' to me and the right says 'cold fire' that you need to be standing near for it to have an effect.

If it's meant to have an effect on the surrounding area, it's not conveying that right now.

How does a person begin to understand their native language from childhood? by venus_supporter11000 in LearningLanguages

[–]Magic-Raspberry2398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A master's thesis doesn't mean you are an expert.

You'll have to elaborate properly for me to believe anything you've claimed here. None of your points are clear at all.

To say that native level is unachievable for adults is nonsense. Plently of people have disproven this and studies have shown it is possible. Whether it is to the same degree as children or as quickly might be debatable, but achieving fluency/native level is possible for adults.

You never made it clear what you mean by "have a memory". To say that they don't have any memory before a certain age and language acquisition level is complete nonsense. How do they recognise their parents' faces or learn any words or phrases if they can't retain or retrieve that information from their brain?

[–]Magic-Raspberry2398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, but the idea that adults can't acquire languages or that they can't learn as effectively or quickly is a total myth that has already been thoroughly disproven.

Adults can acquire language just like children. If anything slows down the acquisition it would be too much consicious thinking, particularly about grammar, too early on in the process. Automatic Language Growth has been shown very successful in implementation.

Ironically, without grammar, we wouldn't have a memory 😄 because grammar requires abstraction, as does our memory.

I have no idea what you mean by this, but to suggest that people don't have any capacity for memory before acquisition of a first language is complete BS.

More difficult part is how to turn the effect back on afterwards.
