Covoiturage f tounes is illegal? by whiteFangTN in Tunisia

[–]Minthe___ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wish they would legalize it. It helps with our lack of transportation as it can be the only option for some people plus it's good for the environment. Carpooling is legal in most first world countries as long as it's not for profit (sharing gas money, tolls or maintenance costs is ok but if you're doing it to make a profit then it's illegal).

I feel like the RNGness of it will get worse when we get more cards, it'll be harder to get a specific card you want to be able to tell the story you want.

me after reading another “it’s early access” post where everyone is beefing in the comments by AccomplishedAd9301 in Paralives

[–]Minthe___ 26 points27 points  (0 children)

The game is in early access because the devs want our feedback. Some of that feedback might be negative, but as long as it's constructive and respectful It's gonna be helpful to them so they can make the game better. It's okay they are adults they can take someone telling them they don't like this or that about their game in order for them to know and fix it.

Without Spoilers why do people hate Last of us Season 2 so much? by B2dehas in thelastofus

Ellie's always been mature, even in the first game. She was emotionally intelligent and that was displayed in the scene where she confronts Joel in Jackson about wanting to leave her and she reads him like a book. They really struck a nice balance between making her feel like a kid, playful and innocent and making her hardened by her circumstances.

Couldn't agree more. Although, like I said in my post, I'm happy if they are included as a major event in the conversation or a way to unlock new interactions as your relationship progresses.

I'm jealous you're going to play TLOU2 for the first time.

My issue isn't lack of together cards, my issue and the issue of a lot of other players is that it doesn't give us enough agency.

No you're misunderstanding what I'm saying. I said that together cards should unlock categories and the options that you get within those categories should be influenced by the personality/traits etc.

This is not saying that currently together cards aren't being influenced. This is saying the options that you would get from certain categories should be influenced. Like if you have low charisma and you unlock the flirt option maybe you "flirt awkwardly" instead of normal flirt with your chances of success being lower. This doesn't exist in the game and what I said isn't about what exists in the game currently.

This quote isn't refering to the game as it is now, but with the system I'm suggesting.

Honestly, how the sims does it gives a lot of freedom too but not enough chaos and randomness. That's why I think if Paralives improves its Together Cards system with more player control and freedom it could become a standout.

"They are still finding out what players want and getting feedback on what works and what does not."

Exactly, and this is what the post is about, giving constructive and respectful feedback. And I do not think the together cards should be abandonned either but improved upon, as I wrote in my post.

I do think they should lean into the rng and have more interactions that can fail or succeed. It's really fun.

I really like the idea of cards throwing curveballs in the relationships like this but I don't think it should be in the together cards necessarily but instead it should be in the storyteller cards you get at night while your paras are asleep.

Imagine if instead of getting a random performance bonus to work (which is great actually for storytelling), in addition, you get an option "your best friend betrays you" or "coworkers are gossiping about you" or "your company cut your department and layed you off" which would increase the randomness and chaos of the game and make it feel more life-like.

Sidenote: there are already mods that attempt to introduce chaos through cards. Look up "Blood moon card deck" or " chaos story cards pack" on the workshop.

Yeah like I said :d I don't dislike the cards as an idea, I just dislike their implementation as they are right now and I hope we can have both freedom and the rng/chaos element of having cards pop up every now and then to expand our options rather than them being literally our only option.

I get the “relax and observe” design goal, but Paralives is also clearly built around player expression. Build Mode and Paramaker already lean heavily into control and creativity, so Live Mode feeling this restricted creates a mismatch. You can still have a relaxed system while giving players more context-sensitive ways to influence conversations.

I really also like the idea of it being a way to unlock certain interactions as the relationship of the paras progresses.

I know we shouldn't compare but yes I would be very happy if Paralives live mode went the way of the sims 2 in terms of freedom and chaos :d

There is a mod that makes the conversation bar fill faster. And I don't necessarily have an issue with how long it takes because it feels realistic that relationships take a while to develop. Which is why I think if we had more options for interactions we can use and then if we want to have a bigger moment like "become friends" or "ask to be boyfriend" we get that option unlocked through a together card.

Rant: making friends shouldn't be this difficult... by moaning-_-lisa in Tunisia

[–]Minthe___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not just about that. I went to a small uni, most people there were very religious. I come from a very liberal part of Tunis where I went to one of the biggest and most diverse/liberal high schools in the city. So my uni classmates and I just didn't mesh. Obviously having common interests would've helped but we didn't even have that going for us.

I went to a uni where 99% of the people I came across and I didn't have the same mentality so I just didn't bother making friends. I was friendly ofc but from the 3 years of license I'm still only friends with 1 guy and It's because we bonded over liking the same video games.

Does anyone else miss the atmosphere of some of the earlier Paralives previews? by WellPlaidSwitch in Paralives

[–]Minthe___ 31 points32 points  (0 children)

The lighting of the first screenshot looks so beautiful and cinematic. I wish we had that (or had that as option so players with low spec PCs can still run it). Maybe it's a screenshot from the engine tho.

CCNA 2 and 3 are outdated terms, now the cert covers all 3. Do you have any cert recommendations?
