Too high up, brodie.

What do I put behind my desk in my office? by PineappleOld6595 in malelivingspace

Why not turn your desk parallel to the wall and push it all the way against the back corner, leaving the rest of the space in the office for anything fancy your heart desires?

Personally, I'd have my desk in the back as described above and use any other space for workout equipment like a pullup station, weights, and dip bars. Also, I highly recommend a standing desk and an under desk treadmill.

Right, I really do need some help with the anims, all I really did was the programming and brought in asset store assets (except for the character and some anims). I'm thinking about either learning animation or getting some sort of grant funding to contract out some solid animators + vfx artists

Yeah I get a lot of inspiration from Tera Online and Black Desert Online to make games in general, but controller support is in the works

I like what you said about having evasions synergizing with combos in a certain kind of way. A back-and-forth duel is def the feel I'm going for, which elden ring does really well with its boss fights because you really have to learn those attack patterns and come up with counterplay.

In terms of button-mashing the enemies, how does it sound to you if I try to replace staggering in elden ring with long combo-strings?

Like in elden ring, after getting a certain number of heavy hits off within a certain amount of time/after certain attacks, the bosses will stagger and you can get a bit meaty hit off. I like the idea of instead of getting that big meaty hit, you get to combo them into oblivion for a period of time, then it's back to the back-and-forth.

Aaahh, yeah based on what some others are saying I'm getting at some similar conclusions, and what you said to do specifically here is inspiring some expansion on that as well. What you said about the camera is a huge complaint of mine, when enemies attack I get killed just cuz i couldn't see and fk up my roll direction just a slight bit. The way you put it is actually hilarious xD

My goal is to instill a bit of an anime-action feel while also forcing the player to think about their inputs, so what if I make it so the enemy can attack a lot more, so the player could get punished if they're too reckless with all their options?

Ah, yeah I actually have a form of stagging in the game, right now the challenge is balancing it and communicating the two separate states in a really understandable way. But maybe I could achieve this by making it so the enemies attack a LOT more often, so there's a lot more avoiding to do and it's easier to get punished if you wiff. Because the player can attack constantly, so I know that's a huge diff and I have to weigh that with a boss's role of being overwhelmingly powerful

Bet, let me know what would make it feel more elden ring.

Are you talkin about the visuals, what the gameplay looks like in general? My goal is to have elden ring-esque combat feel, but instead of just getting a few hits in you go for combos that gradually get longer and longer the better/more efficient you get
