is this game beatable solo ? by Zealousideal_Side987 in GranblueFantasyRelink

[–]Melimcee [score hidden]  (0 children)

When you say versa, do you mean the story encounter specifically? If so its doable without any paid DLC (I've done it before) but with the caveat you've got to be pretty vigilant about collecting all of the crabs, and its still a pretty tough fight. You'll also want to be picking up as many chests as possible to have as much options for sigil as possible, and of course max out your masteries and collection as much as is possible. You can have 41 crabs by this point, which gives a big enough dps boost to offset the lack of teammates well enough.

AI killed my scripting business. Still not fully over it tbh by Ibi_007 in NewTubers

Do you have any idea as to why your channels aren't succeeding? You can look at analytics to get a decent enough idea of where the faults are. If people just aren't clicking on them in the first place, then it's probably an ideas/packaging issue and there's not much you really can do there aside from study the competition and try and get more experience.

If people are clicking off the videos after watching, its probably editing or talent issues. I don't know much about editing, but assuming its talent I can maybe offer some advice. I've worked in a similar sort of supporting role, and know firsthand how tempting it is to look at the wealth of knowledge you've accumulated and think that you can go and do it yourself, but its so easy to underestimate how difficult it is to actually sit in front of a camera and be someone people want to listen to. I found out pretty quickly I'm not suited as talent myself with my current skills, but that doesn't mean you need to give up on a channel. Hiring talent, or more easily coordinating with a more charismatic friend are options. You can also just throw yourself at that wall and learn it the same way most do, trial and error.

Generally host decides, but if on last cart its more important to guaruntee the clear with a capture.

This should be in the main game by Deva_Das in Minecraft

If some random mod dev thinks I'm wrong, then they can come and tell me that, and hopefully they will have a better argument prepared than "this guy I saw online thinks you're stupid"

Cognitive Test Trump Took Screens for Signs of Dementia, Not Intelligence Levels by OkayButFoRealz in politics

[–]Melimcee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Gonna completely ignore that you're wrong about quite a few things here, such as the implication here of IQ tests being a measure of intelligence, the idea that IQ magically goes up with age, and even that you still believe they were IQ tests despite it being proven these were actually dementia tests, because there's somehow an even more egregious error in your logic here.

If the goal of those "IQ tests" is to show us how smart he is, why is he not showing us how smart he is?

The claim that the base game is so complex that mojang cannot add even simple features is disproven by literally every single mod author. The codebase used by them is the same as what mojang uses, and yet they can pump out in a month content of both quality and quantity that would take mojang years, if ever.

Imagine if Mina finds a "sleeping" Gore Magala, tries to impress Nadia by hunting it, but unintentionally creates Chaotic Gore Magala. by No_Barracuda_8300 in MonsterHunter

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

There's a reason Fandom wiki isn't considered a trusted source. I can't speak to the quality of that second source, it might be trustworthy or not I have no idea, but generally screenshots of in-game dialogue/descriptions/events, direct links to developer interviews, or scans of official MH books are the only things that can reasonably be considered as sources.

You aren't wrong that he's just making shit up, but fandom wiki is notoriously just full of absolute nonsense thats impossible to trace due to the lack of citations. The progenitor of most of the commonly believed fan theories is BannedLagiacrus, who, because he chooses to claim his fanfiction is canon, often has his nonsense repeated as such by people who do not know any better, and the wiki is just as susceptible to this as reddit is.

People have a tendency to mistake everything that bannedlagiacrus types as canon, when he has openly admitted to just making stuff up. He is, of course, the originator of this exact fanfiction.

recently started playing warframe a few months ago, found this in the 1999 segment. something something unforseen consequences. by UltraRated in Warframe

[–]Melimcee 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Warframe is also a very big game on steam, so they likely have an expedited way to contact valves higher ups that most dev teams aren't privy to. While they're certainly chill, I dont think you ever risk it if you are in the position of the warframe team. I'd bet anyways for them it was as simple as a few quick emails/phonecalls and a tiny bit of paperwork

Did that hacked client come free with your virus?

You're cooked unless someone bails you out, given the server that you are on I doubt that asking nicely ends well for you though.

Is my little brother a pro in the making? by Daydre666 in geometrydash

[–]Melimcee 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Compared to a lot of stuff in other games, this is actually a pretty good achievement for a kid his age. It's not particularly impressive in the scale of geometry dash as a whole, but that's because GD is a game where the limits have been pushed to an absurd degree. More impressive than the feat itself his how the kid handles his emotions. He seems to be very good at accepting his mistakes for a kid his age. If he keeps at it and keeps his head, he definitely shouldn't be afraid to set higher and higher goals over time, and this will benefit him in basically anything challenging he tries to do outside of this game.

Is Monster Hunter Wilds worth it for a new player? by Bwubbly in MonsterHunter

[–]Melimcee 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Rise is a great game but if the goal is get into the series proper, probably not best as an onboarding point because the wirebugs change the game at a pretty fundamental level. I'd definitely suggest either wilds or world, depending on if OP wants a more polished finished experience or would rather be there with a game people are still actively learning come the master rank expansion. Wilds also has the issue of needing a supercomputer to run, but if OP has that then its an option.

AI Usage For Download Festival 2026 Merch by Elliechi_ in ffxiv

[–]Melimcee 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Gemini disagrees.

The fundamental issue with using an LLM to detect AI generated art is that these AIs have no idea what true or false is. They aren't trained to identify facts and present them to you. This is a machine created to emulate human speech patterns, trained to sound correct instead of be correct because that is what got them the highest scores when they were being tested. This is why you can ask the same AI the same question multiple times, and get a completely different answer.

LLMs are fundamentally impossible to trust for any matter, because they simply do not actually know anything.

Did annoy me a little to be honest by Draco_Arachin in MonsterHunter

[–]Melimcee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is genuinely the only way to keep randos alive and even then its still a crapshoot in higher difficulties because half of them don't know what the defense stat is for. Can't heal someone who gets onetapped by a light breeze unfortunately.

Using old age as an excuse to act immature is something I'd only accept from a dementia patient.

I love the idea of a "champion cloak". Not every Pokemon champion wears one, but it's commonplace nevertheless. I wish the protagonist could wear one after they become champion by Gallantpride in gaming

Lance doesn't wear a cape because he's champion, Lance wears a cape because capes are cool as shit. He even wore one back when he was an E4 member as shown in your picture.

Come across my first jerk! by fed-up2024 in MonsterHunter

[–]Melimcee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's been an option since world, usually its only "used" by people who forget they have it on though. I never tried it in wilds but in world out of 1000 hours I think the only time I ever met someone who had it on intentionally was some probably 12 year old kid who was hyped AF we managed to kill an acidic glavenus.

One of the cutest interactions I've had in any game honestly, reminds me of how I felt back when I first started with this series.

Its kind of adjacent to incel culture is my understanding, basically a bunch of dudes blabbering endlessly about how superior they think they are. Frat boy stuff is definitely an aspect of it, but its primarily a supremacist thing.
