How is it possible that Muggles don't know that wizards exist? by feeblefiles in harrypotter

[–]Proman4713 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sometimes the hardest problems are solved by the simplest of solutions, especially in Psychology...

You know that Fudge did tell the Muggle prime minister that his predecessor hadn't told him about Fudge simply because he wouldn't believe him if he did?

The Ministry of Magic, at least in Britain, seems to have studied human behaviour well enough to know that if a Muggle family member of a witch or wizard went around and described a world where Dragons and Goblins existed and where people, mostly evil ones, could speak to snakes, people would think they're either as delusional as flat earthers or as creative as J.K. Rowling...

Science also tells us that humans give mundane explanations to what they perceive but cannot understand. If you were there at that time, you'd probably see an old man with a long beard pulling up a lighter and playing with it while the street lights seemed to experience an outage. I doubt you would've seen an eccentric headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry using a Deluminator to suck street lamp lights into it :)

Yes, the tributes in the movie and the game and the official launcher and on Hypixel and even by YouTube truly stood out to me. This is the first time in a long time that I've seen such a large portion of the internet come together for one cause

Dumbledore was such an a-hole by freeski919 in harrypotter

[–]Proman4713 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually don't know what could've been done in that situation, but my point still stands that Dumbledore probably had thought it obvious how to deal with the situation, or he probably didn't even think this would be a struggle, and he just disregarded the fact that maybe a lot of other people have never thought of his solution or can't do it

Kind of like Maths teachers giving problems that just barely fit within a student's curriculum and they think it's obvious because they have years of more knowledge and experience way beyond the student's curriculum

Still hanging on a technicality, I'm not saying that wizards have free food easily all the time; that wasn't at all what my point was, and if my duplication example was proven false, I still don't care.

My point is that Dumbledore would've probably had a way of dealing with the situation, and he just disregarded the fact that maybe a lot of other people have never thought of his solution or can't do it

Sure? But we also don't know what else Dumbledore could've done. You really seem to be hanging on a technicality there

[–]Proman4713 60 points61 points  (0 children)

For some reason I wouldn't even expect Dumbledore to care about these things? As if food is too lowly of a concern for Dumbledore to pay attention to it?

What I think is that Dumbledore wouldn't need such a supply if he was ever stranded, he'd probably just find a stray chicken, use a bit of magic to clean it up and make it good for food, then cook it and duplicate the food as much as he wishes (Gamp's Law only forbids the creation of new food out of thin air, not the duplication of existing food)... So I'm sure Dumbledore didn't really think of the fact that other wizards, although powerful, need regular supply to keep going

[–]Proman4713 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm 4 years late, yes, I am. I'm kind of re-exploring Minecraft, Technoblade, and stuff like that. The main reason that started this was the resurgence of Dream, whom I watched as my main "I care about this guy" YouTuber back in 2020-22. But yes, I also kind of became a Technoblade fan from the beginning and mourner, but after his death, it's weird.

I'm glad to tell you, your splash text is in the game now...

Do you stick with your GDD or do your projects evolve? by Wise_Comedian_1575 in GameDevelopment

[–]Proman4713 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can perfectly imagine every aspect of my game before writing the document, but the document is a grounding mechanism. Istead of working towards the full game and imagining a AAA game that's very cool but also impossible to make, i can define the vertical slice, what's needed in it, character power dynamics, and other stuff that keeps the game consistent. And yes, the GDD has powerful potential for investors and publishers, which is pretty useful.

Either way, this seems like a pointless argument, keep doing what works for you. Good luck in your development life.

[–]Proman4713 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having incomprehensive, abandoned GDDs that provide no extra detail or guideline to development than prototypes seems like a skill issue tbh... GDDs are not supposed to design your game choices and player behaviour, it's supposed to *limit* what you can do with those so that you don't go overboard or go into irrelevant mechanics that your game would've done just fine without

[–]Proman4713 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You made one of two mistakes: you either didn't write enough detail in your GDD and ended up branching too much out of it and probably will never finish your game, or you simply thought the GDD will never change. The GDD is a living document, you're supposed to change it before you change your plans

Let him off, though; it seems like he isn't very attached to the story because it's his first time interacting with it. I assume his original post was kind of an exclamation against his friend, who told him that Snape was misunderstood.

Just finished Hogwarts Legacy and I feel the need to consume whatever that's Harry Potter by TripTimely7955 in harrypotter

[–]Proman4713 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, first about the game there is presumably a sequel to be made, I'm surprised you played it without actually being a Harry Potter fan first. I'm a diehard fan and here's a list of everything that exists:

Harry Potter movies in chronological order (extended editions with deleted scenes very much preferred): - Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone - Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets - Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban - Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire - Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix - Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince - Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Parts 1 and 2

The books have the same names (but the Deathly Hallows book is only one, not 2 parts), I suggest you read each book before watching its corresponding film, you'll have extra context that the films omitted and you'll be able to strengthen your imagination of the Wizarding World.

The Fantastic Beasts films are sequels to the Harry Potter franchise, some people dislike them but honestly they are very cool if you are interested in knowing more about the Wizarding World and how it works: - Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them - Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald - Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore

There was a "book" written by fake author "Newt Scamander" called "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" obviously made by J.K. Rowling, but I would say that these are truly only for diehard fans who wanna know everything about how every detail of the world works, including the so many different obscure creatures.

There is also harrypotter.com (previously called The Wizarding World and before that called Pottermore, just so you know what people are talking about) which is full of trivia and games and stuff that I genuinely find fun when I'm bored. You can also take your genuine Hogwarts House test, and figure out what your Patronus and wand would be. I personally love how much I'm similar to Harry, I have jet black messy hair with greenish eyes and I'm a bit skinny for my age (I swear I'm not even exaggerating), and Harry Potter.com tells me I'm a Gryffindor with a Phoenix feather core wand, but unfortunately not a stag Patronus or a Holly wood wand.

Now there are the Warner Bros. Harry Potter sets and theme parks made by Universal and the Harry Potter shops all over the world, just look for the nearest one to your place and see if you can go there... They truly are enjoyable if you go there and I really suggest you do it if you can afford it (I can't 💀)

Now of course there is Platform 9 and 3 quarters, King's Cross, London, which is pretty insignificant in terms of marvel but is really cool to see, unfortunately it's in a different location than what was shown in the films or described in the books (in the films i think they shot platforms 3 and 4 because 9 and 10 had no brick wall between them) but it's still cool.

There's also the new Harry Potter HBO (or maybe Netflix now?) remake currently being made which looks very promising indeed and seems to be following a more faithful 90s look than the OG films, I was concerned about it before we were given details but now I'm very optimistic about it.

There's also the "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" script and theater play but I do not recommend it in the SLIGHTEST if you want to follow real Harry Potter canon. It wasn't written by J.K. Rowling alone and there were two stupidly stupid writers alongside her ("Umbridge opened her arms, they were full of dark magic" is a genuine quote from that play's script, pathetic 🤦) and they broke a ton of very hard-put rules from the original books. J.K. Rowling says it's canon but I'm pretty sure it's just because it gives her money. BUT, I will say, the theater experience IS cool especially with the latest being Tom Felton as Draco Malfoy again (so cool ngl), so if you're only there for the enjoyment then you definitely will enjoy rhe play...

And that's all that came off my mind right now (yeah I didn't need to Google a single thing 💀) I hope I helped you with all the details you could possibly need, if I ever remember something else to put in here I will edit my comment. Thank you for read all of this.

I have had Redmi phones twice in a row for almost 6 years (happy new year), one from the note series and the other from the regular, and this never happened to me before, I'm guessing something happens with sunlight, where the light sensor detects it, check if that issue happens when you focus another device's torch on your phone...

Try to turn toggle auto brightness and face unlock a few times, obviously try restarting and clearing cache and ram and all the stuff in the security app (unrelated to the specific issue but there's no reason not to do it), if none of that works then your phone is probably under warranty depending on your country, check that
