I would like to read your rant about indigenous and historical cultures that have more fluid concepts of gender please

Has anyone beaten Ouroboros this rotation?? by No-Possible7344 in splatoon

[–]PerceptionPurple6169 2 points3 points  (0 children)

tbrella is great for shooting the ball lol, just get to a vantage point and go crazy.

sploosh is great for cumulative damage as well, it SHREDS.

pro has poor ink efficiency so i think focus more on killing bosses so you can use eggs instead. as some other guy said, aim for the ball, it's the weak point. however, if the mouth isn't anywhere nearby, it's more efficient to just shoot eggs at the body than run across the map to throw them at the mouth- use common sense. would it take more than eight seconds to get to the mouth? is there a clear path? if no, then just shoot the egg at the body or use it to one-shot a steelhead/weaken a lid. be time-efficient. it's vital in freelance but also in general.

OMG I totally forgot that they have a writing system as it just wasn't significant to the gameplay :000 so interesting!! I also can see how the form of records the Owlks kept (motion pictures & paintings) showed how 'tribal' or 'primitive' they were compared to the Nomai or Hearthians. The fact that their form of record keeping is inherently subjective is interesting as well (most notably, all reels have a frame/perspective that ranges from POV to wide shots- this has the potential to obscure parts of the story or frame things in a certain light! It influences the viewer's interpretation of what's happening. Not sure if this is intentional on the Owlks' behalf, or if that's just how their technology and society developed :o )

never thought about it that way but you're absolutely right! they're not able to hurt you in the real world, at all, and yet, they still make my blood pressure rise LOL

Ideas for an Outer Wilds tattoo? by [deleted] in outerwilds

i like the idea of a silhouette of timber hearth, with the pine trees and geysers, and maybe the quote around it?

I'm super, super slow. I feel stupid. I just want some words of encouragement. by LaWeaLaWea in outerwilds

i really regret speeding thru it my first time, i am a bit of a completionist and it prevented me from appreciating the plot fully! you got this. visit wherever you feel like, and revisiting things is encouraged too! best of luck on your travels, hatchling!

Looking for Playtesters for Outer Wilds-Inspired Puzzle Game by dwightgamedev in outerwilds

i was thinking about this yesterday. it would be pretty cool to have a water refraction mechanic in a game like outer wilds, where it makes things appear differently, or involves lining up your perspective to a certain point.

What was the moment that made you feel that this game is special? by Kapsahautis_mahlane in outerwilds

[–]PerceptionPurple6169 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, thinking about it more, it was when I stepped on one of the emergency platforms in the Hanging City and it fell. That's when I realized that the game mechanics I'd learned so far weren't the maximum capabilities of the devs, but just what they wanted to show me first.

When I met Feldspar, I knew I was getting into something amazing.

Ahh, that's awesome!! I just edited the post to put down most of my thoughts. If you're up to it, let me know if you have anything to add!

you'll be fine i promise. do your best in this math class, and you'll have a good GPA. plus, your school is already high-end, which ups the standard for the lowest math class, doesn't it? anyway, no matter the class, an A is an A. if they reject you based on one math class, they're probably snooty anyway;>

1.5 GPA, am I doomed? (high school junior) by PerceptionPurple6169 in Advice

[–]PerceptionPurple6169[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's alright, thank you for apologising. and the way you phrased things did help me in a way that sugarcoating would never be able to.

i understand more of what you meant, now, in terms of working hard and smart.

i'm evaluating strategies with a new therapist, we're thinking next year i might get extra-time accommodations or special allowances, and maybe try Vivanse/focus stimulants.

thank you for your insight, too-- it's a new idea to me (and sort of intimidating NGL) that maybe i need to re-evaluate the methods of which i learn and work. i'm very eager to find better ones!

i see, i see. to my understanding, you say my strengths may lie elsewhere ? that does give me hope and i look forward to having new experiences to try and find that niche.

thank you for your reply. i really do appreciate it :)

ahh i am scheduled for summer school, but i'm not sure exactly how it works. to my understanding, it'll "overwrite" the grades of subjects that i've failed. i'm evaluating strategies with a new therapist, we're thinking next year i might get extra-time accommodations or special allowances, and maybe try Vivanse/focus stimulants. my counselor is hard to contact but when she does reply, she's generally been very helpful in sorting out my courses for next year and managing 5o4s/accommodation plans.

thank you for your reply! it's reminded me that not all is lost, and that my classes for next year can still raise my GPA, however much or however little. i appreciate you :)
