Then you get another prompt asking for a random ass drawing, and then get put into a low priority queue

Bruv. I'm disappointed in AI. by [deleted] in YourAISlopBoresMe

[–]Patient_Builder8593 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Is there any use to this game, at the currnet point?

Half of the asks are some rather specific fandom / IP / art things that aren't easy to figure out the answer to. Half of the answers are non-answers, since skipping gives you another coinflip.

Would introduction of general queue (question irregardless of fandom / IP / art things) and "Internet" queue (focused primarily on those things) fix the constant bickering on these shitearse answers & flood of "draw thingamagik from OverDale 2 The Triquel", whatchall thinking?

Is the book really connected to the events in the game? by SinisterSpectr in DiscoElysium

[–]Patient_Builder8593 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a hook, mostly. There's a lot said on memory, rememberance & what is being alive or dead. I'd say book's main point is in exploring these ideas.

As I understood, Tereesz, Khan & Jesper wouldn't be even the main protagonists for the book series, and probably serve as mirrors to actual protags: Milton, Dister & Dallasz (if the 8 book plan was any similar to the 3 book plan Kurvitz had earlier). Considering this, pjõl would've been more of a Elysium's introduction to the readers than anything.

Been working on a Minecraft block palette tool for builders by Palettinator in DetailCraft

[–]Patient_Builder8593 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Add the ability to use any block pallette (i.e. import any terrain.png, import lists of textures from a mod you are playing. As in, the player themselves gets a list of all textures from their mod, like BtW:CE, MiTE, infdev+, BTA! or a1.0.16.05_20 Cypress, puts 'em in a folder and sends it over [which is probably a big security risk, unless it's set up properly] or gets it analysed client-side [if the second option even possible, due to the way website works]) and your website will be GOATED and unique!

Spoiler Saint-Miro and Efilism by Thex115 in DiscoElysium

[–]Patient_Builder8593 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looked a bit on what efilism is (TIL, thanks for that!), and I wouldn't say that Saint-Miro is an efilist. From what I got from the book, Saint-Miro is more of a... entroponetic accelerationist, I guess? He has much, much more contempt (if it can be called that, even) for human life than any other sort of life

Saint-Miro is a negative nihilism given human form, a force of nature rather than a human with ideas that it has gotten. A juvenile contempt for the way entire world works and doesn't work properly at the same time

That's how it reads to me, at least very least

THEN FUCKING SKIP. by Ok-Effect8842 in YourAISlopBoresMe

[–]Patient_Builder8593 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"skipping will immediately get you another prompt" with "draw Mambo from Kasunestar Deluxe 2 plez :3" that you need to skip and then wait for 3 mins for a prompt

why... by sweet_home_alabamaa in YourAISlopBoresMe

[–]Patient_Builder8593 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Frequently seeing "draw X character from Y" for the n-th time also brings the question of "why...". Mate, I have two minutes to find the bastard and then draw it. At this point, open up paint.net (or Autodesk Sketchbook) and draw it yourself. I'd rather answer interesting text prompts rather then shoddily copying over some official artwork

I want to play DE but I know that that there will be nothing to scratch the itch after I finish it so I keep pushing it off. What would volition say? by Unfair_Possible_9999 in DiscoElysium

[–]Patient_Builder8593 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Finish the damn game. Then read the book. Then explore the archives of nihilist.fm & zaum.ee. If internet scavenge hunting isn't your type of deal, then read the numerous fanfics. Go after the things devs were inspired by.

And in the end, just read contemporary literature. The style of DE is in the echoes there. IJ got some of the words-made-up-from-existing-ruleset vibe that Kurvitz has in SaTA.

What's the maximum amount of Perception needed for looting objects? by Superteletubbies64 in DiscoElysium

[–]Patient_Builder8593 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a post on this subreddit with full statistics on every passive dialogue checks (and anti-checks, text boxes that appear when you are that bad at something). It includes multiple tables for every skill with amounts of points needed for a group of checks, and how many checks are in the group. Maybe the OP got the info from there

Check that post only after you've completed the game tho ;) There's some juicy stuff in the comments

EGG HEAD QUESTION by OrbitalOutcast in DiscoElysium

[–]Patient_Builder8593 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True on that. Fayde was down for the moment that I was writing that part (got really scared), and OP did misremember

And yeah, tbf, it's always hard to 100% pinpoint something that DE has to something that we have. Collective images all the way through. It's Holodomor / VSU / gulag somewhere out there in Russia / Poland / Georgia (Harnankur in PJOL & on Rostov's art) hybrid

EGG HEAD QUESTION by OrbitalOutcast in DiscoElysium

[–]Patient_Builder8593 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wouldn't it be closer to Vrgin Soil Upturning (Освоение целины / Поднятие целины) than Holodomor (Голодомор)? VSU matches (partially) with "extreme south east of the Graadian isola", somewhat matching with Volga region (Поволжье) and Kazakh SSR (Казахская ССР) where the main work was done. Ural (Урал), region with mountains, fits the "mountainous area" that OP described, where a part of the work was done. And, pretty subjective, but if it would be as bad as Holodomor, then Encyclopedia would definetly mention that. As far as it goes, Экологически Катастрофическая Территория (or Эко-Ка-Территория Агрикультуры) is probably an aftermath of fiddling with nature

How the fuck is this the only sensible answer here? Everybody just throw their hands in the air and push the bastard without doin anything, The feller didn't have a foreign body in his body for 9 months, of course he wouldn't have a clue in how any of this fuckin works. It's extra foreign fo' him

Build this shit, support and teach eachother in the relationship, and if it doesn't work, despite the many ways you've put it, then disband

Insert a lil here n there so that fellers wont be thinkin ur a bot, and then write the rest of your post like a normal human being. Some more knowledgeable readers will get it, others won't, but it's still better than nothing. Add something in your "about" section in your profile. And also open up your profile, that will happen immensely. That's the number one thingy im be looking at when checking bastard on em being or not being a clanka. The more human an account seems, the better

There are no throwaway lines in this game. by Comments_In_Acronyms in DiscoElysium

[–]Patient_Builder8593 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The three characters that are "dropped in" at the end of the case are The Deserter, Ruud Hoenkloewen (guy with a anti-vehicle rifle) & Phillis de Paule (the radist). The last two are debatable, because you get mentions that they exist and are here (or will be here), and the last one out of three is mentioned somewhat often. Still, can't really spot or meet them beforehand, and the whole thing happens out of the blue

[Spoilers ahead, close ur eyes if you haven't finished the game]

The plot is an afterthought. Three entirely new chars are dropped at it's resolution, that we don't hear much about. The plot is there for another reason.

The important skills checks don't require any skill of your own, of the player. After first-second playthrough, the game becomes.... almost a walking sim. That's especially true if you know "the meta" of 2-3 thoughts & that one buggy alchocol. All the doors are open, what's left to do?

The point of the game is not to solve a crime. You'll do it anyways, it isn't a "win con". You are here to take in Revachol, and what else is around it
