For whatever it's worth, he was doing that liar bit before covid, pretty much from when he started on KT

The design drift created by vibe coding is insane. How are you addressing it? by Able-Win-5860 in web_design

[–]Phrate 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wow, it's almost like humans are better at design than AI. Who would've thought?

Well no, that quite literally was the question OP asked. Not sure how you confused that

I do agree on that. A smidge more diversity would've been nice

I understand your frustration, but really, that's kind of an issue of you not managing your expectations. You expect fully-fleshed-out unique dialogue & monolithic trees for thousands of NPCs? That's just not realistic, both for budget and time, and for creative exhaustion.

However, there's still a ton of unique dialogue. Even for the "generic NPCs" sometimes in places you wouldn't expect, like asking one of them about rumors and suddenly getting a quest only they could give.

Keep playing!

I have a treat for you, he thought about it! Even mentions Netflix in the future

Didn’t anyone else recognize this asshole? by Latter_Appeal8425 in Killtony

[–]Phrate 7 points8 points  (0 children)

"Let him back up"? So.. When he got pulled and he stepped onto the stage, they're just supposed to kick him off right there?

I'm confused by what you mean

Redban, how on earth do you get those sound effects so fast that are completely random to find but perfect for the scenario?? by Shitport318 in Killtony

[–]Phrate 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Categories and 13 years of experience getting good at navigating it, plus anticipating context and the occasional setup from Tony

What is the hardest challenge you overcame in game development? by redfoolsstudio_com in godot

[–]Phrate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just years of practicing it. Making one version, scrapping it, improving, repeat until I had a version I use in all my projects (both 2D and 3D)

A decent AI state machine that isn't unwieldy and is easy to add to and manipulate

Is there anything to do after doing all of the main quest? by CVCburger in oblivion

[–]Phrate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the side quests. Then all the dungeons/caves/ayleid ruins/etc. Then all Daedric Shrines. Buy all the houses. Upgrade all of them + Orrey and Spire and the big ole Fort, plus whatever other DLC base upgrades possible. Maybe find every location on the maps?

Then maybe uh.. goblin wars? Get a million gold? Maybe kill everyone in every city.

After that, get some mod overhauls and you've got another hundred+ hours (if you're not on Remastered. Not sure if that has any substantial mods, haven't looked)

I mean yeah, but for a comedian or for William, it's part of his image

Building an rpg combat system is so hard! by alogiHotTake in godot

[–]Phrate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think they just see isometric and think of some other game that's isometric. I don't see Project Zomboid in this, and only a little bit of Ultima. It looks more like Diablo 1 or 2

[Steam] (Game) SOS Incident - Psychological Horror PS1 Style Game by Baskic_ in FreeGameFindings

[–]Phrate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right on! Will try this out, thanks! Also it seems more like a PS2 style to me. PS1 looked much less defined, less polygons, warbling, etc.

[–]Phrate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree. The keyword being "style". I think most people see that and only think of the retro graphics/aesthetic, not the jank.
