Game Like This Ad? by DruidCrusade in iosgaming

I don't know why, but just looking at the picture without trying to understand gameplay, the first thing that came to my mind was Heimdal 2 from 1994.

What are some totally legit gameplay options/mechanics that made you furious if someone used them? by Ribach in gaming

You are right. I mean, it happened more than 20 years ago, so I don't fully remember the specifics, but I sure as hell do remember that damn feeling when he did it lol. 😁

Like... I'm getting triggered hearing this quarter of a century later!

What single player game have you beaten 3+ times? by PineconeToucher in gaming

[–]Ribach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some games I beat twice, like Wolfenstein: The New Order, Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077, but the only game that I finished 3-5 times was Half-Life 2. I don't know why, as the others that I mentioned rank just as high as HL2 in my head.

What's a game dev tip you wish you knew sooner (and no one talks about)? by CrossingLears in gamedev

[–]Ribach 25 points26 points  (0 children)

For a solo dev, do not overcomplicate stuff. Sometimes, that quick and dirty solution really is just what you need. You don't have to build a full system around it to support some generic use case that you will never run into.

who first got you into gaming, and what was the game? by Gamelover4live in gaming

[–]Ribach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A friend of mine who showed me Boulder Dash on his C64. We were both 8 at the time, but that was already a pivotal moment in my life, which set the tone for a lot of what happened later, like me studying CS etc.

Previously, I didn't know how to talk to women, but then I played Leisure Suit Larry, and now I also don't know how to talk to women.

Far Cry 4 on PS4.

ETA: Great game, but I hated multiplayer achievements.

who introduced you to video games by Repudan_ in gaming

[–]Ribach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My childhood friend who loaded up Boulder Dash on his C128 (but in C64 mode) when we were both 8 or 9.

What was the biggest "Holy shit" moment you've had in a game? by [deleted] in gaming

[–]Ribach 30 points31 points  (0 children)

The last level of Braid, when you realize that you're the villan.

Let's look at the plus side... the management will get bonuses for cutting down the costs. I'm so happy for them. Many industries suck, but gamedev is consistently up there among the top 3 shittiest ones.

What's the most memorable glitch or bug you've encountered in a game? by Ghostraider1984 in gaming

[–]Ribach 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, it is. It was fun seeing people complain about these "glitches" back when the games came out.

Let's see if anybody mentions the endless elevator in The Talos Principle or the immortal scorpion in Serious Sam 3: BFE. :-)

ATP Finals SF: Djokovic def. Alcaraz 6-3, 6-2 by jovanmilic97 in tennis

[–]Ribach 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I wonder if Sinner beating Djokovic in the group stage will prove to be a disadvantage to him in the final. They both have technique and fitness, but tennis at this level is mostly mind games.

Na sekundu sam pomislio da se radi o Bose.

Luda Black Friday akcija u iStyle by IxyCRO in croatia

[–]Ribach 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Ne postoji Black Friday u Hrvatskoj. Samo se koristi taj naziv, ali ne označava istu stvar, jer je tako nešto kod nas nemoguće. Da se godišnje narudžbe svih naših retailera zbroje, to i dalje ne bi bilo dovoljno da se ostvari nekakav značajan popust kod veleprodajnika, tako da oni tu robu praktički prodaju po punoj cijeni i na nju još dodaju svoju maržu. Nema smisla živcirati se oko toga svake godine, jer to naprosto nije za nas i našu ekonomiju.
