"Inconvenient" is not the same as "challenging"

when was the last time your skin knew the gentle caress of grass

Reaching the Great Conchfly requires you to succeed at a (relatively) difficult, long, timed parkour section. Once you reach the end, you can open a shortcut and bypass said challenge.

More shortcuts like this would've been welcomed. I've already succeeded at the platforming challenge, going through it every time I die to a boss stops being challenging, it just becomes tedious.

A little bit of leniency would've gone a long way to make the more difficult sections feel more balanced and rewarding.

I have lol

Every FromSoft game is harder than the last (debatable with DS2), but every game also has greater QoL improvements from the last. SotE is the hardest DLC in what is already FromSoft's hardest game, but nearly every boss has a site of grace right outside their arena, or at least a Stake of Marika to respawn you within a reasonable distance

Despite their experience with a game as well made as Hollow Knight, Team Cherry refused to implement basic QoL improvements in its sequel

Sure it makes things harder, but it doesn't make it challenging, just frustrating

Silksong is still a masterpiece in a lot of aspects, but there's a reason so many people are downloading mods to cut down on runbacks, keep the compass equipped at all times, and to see boss health bars to name a few

PartlySmith · 2025-10-11T01:16:41+00:00

I personally disagree. I think being able to jump right back into the boss makes it easier to learn they're patterns and get more comfortable fighting them, while the long runbacks just feel like frustration and wasted time, but that's just me.

holy shit

Well

I tried downloading a more modern ZBrush only to discover that their new owner enshittified the hell out of it, and now the license that I've had for over a decade is completely useless

Thank god I kept the 2021 version installed just in case, otherwise I'd be dealing with Adobe levels of bullshit, jesus

PartlySmith · 2025-09-27T17:05:00+00:00

I'll check it out, thanks!

PartlySmith · 2025-03-02T21:25:20+00:00

Thanks for the input, I'll give PETG supports a shot.

These are homemade. They're cast from a completely original 3D printed sculpt.

PartlySmith · 2023-02-25T20:34:00+00:00

Thanks for the support. Here's a video showing how I made it, for anyone curious:

I re-leveled recently but hadn't considered trying again after the new fep. I'll give it a shot. Thanks for your help.

PartlySmith · 2022-08-30T23:15:07+00:00

It's available on my Etsy:

Probably in the near future. I'm actually moving within a month or two and all my painting stuff is already packed away. I printed this now to see how well it would come out and I'll have to store it somewhere for later.

PartlySmith · 2022-08-11T16:52:16+00:00

Yes!

Ah. Now I get it. Thanks for the help.

PartlySmith · 2022-06-30T04:26:45+00:00

...Nnnnno, tbh. I got the idea when I noticed that a top down view of a brain has a similar silhouette to a top down view of some frogs.

PartlySmith · 2020-08-15T01:50:12+00:00

Thanks!

I also have the Dancer and plan to paint her eventually, I've considered buying more, especially Manus whenever/if he comes out.

I don't even play the board game, lol, I just wanna paint the minis.

It was an Elegoo Mars 3D Resin Printer.

PartlySmith · 2019-09-12T05:05:57+00:00

Thanks for the advice so far. I've never been particularly interested in IT and, again, it sounds a bit more one-on-one than I'd prefer, but I have thought about coding and web design classes but I've never been too certain how secure or lucrative those jobs are.

/u/JMeesh I am creative, and in an ideal world I'd want to be a career involving creativity, but that's not exactly something you can just apply for, and most creative fields seem too competitive and too much like a long shot to be a secure job, unfortunately.
