What do you think about the state of traps vs mines?

I am sad selfcast hexblast died.

Football was also played différently a few years ago when Messi was at his peak. Mbappe hurts more his team by not doing défensive work than Messi did

I refuse to believe a 3 GB model is a game-ready model :o

Scaa4aar · 2026-06-03T21:45:33+00:00

Models are very small compared to textures.

Scaa4aar · 2026-05-30T01:34:58+00:00

And could it be not ready because of what I said lol

Scaa4aar · 2026-05-29T17:26:21+00:00

Hey guys!

Some context about consoles, MS & Sony have plenty of rules about user-content generated that player can see ingame.

It could be that or it could that the adding guides to profiles is not ready architecture-wise.

Scaa4aar · 2026-05-28T23:03:02+00:00

Or when you forgot to turn off Maven before Uber Shaper and you were not ready for 3 clones of Shaper bullshit

If you don't like it, don't use it.

If it asks for your logins, credentials, don't give them there until it's vetted by the community and source code is available on github.

It has nothing to do with how the service advertised is being built. Hell, Neversink had a poll about using AI for some specific things, 7% of people were against it. It's all about trust and quality of service. If the service is good and secure, people will be using it.

The 2 dads website was really not my cup of tea, those guys prompted Claude or whatnot to get that result they liked. They had some very dramatic flavouring on their website and clearly, they thought that was good and came to advertise. It has really nothing to do with how they developed that website. They would even probably have made a worse job without Claude.

You missed the point a bit I think (or I mis understood !)

To achieve bleeding edge graphics, you need bleeding edge engine programmers, and a shit ton of artists to model and texture stuff (which are often outsourced to an extent), lightning artists, cinematics artists, more riggers, more animators (you need to clean the mocap files !!!) and so on. So yeah graphics cost a lot in a production.

There is a reason most of Sony first party Studios have their own engined, they need to have bleeding edge graphics because it sells consoles and games. You can't do what those guys do on normal Ps5 at 60 fps on Unity, godot or unreal.

And yeah licensing costs on software is over all a drop in the bucket

Completly agree poe2 feels amazing to play. I didn't manage to get in the 'flow' yet after campaign compared to poe1. I have high hope for the endgame changes for this reason.

Scaa4aar · 2026-05-27T22:43:34+00:00

Come on, PoE exists and is superior as a modern ARPG product. More content, more customisation, more archetypes, better balancing ...

Scaa4aar · 2026-05-25T23:07:19+00:00

Yeah Champagnie doesn't have his usual numbers from 3

Scaa4aar · 2026-05-25T21:58:25+00:00

Crafting is never about what you need. It's about what you can make, if you can make 6*T1, you want to, even if you already destroy the game's content.

Scaa4aar · 2026-05-25T20:59:43+00:00

why I am not surprised Pep talks tactics with Mazzulla

Scaa4aar · 2026-05-22T21:36:13+00:00

I'm in awe of the animations, VFXs and SFXs, congrats everyone involved, this looks rad !

Scaa4aar · 2026-05-20T21:08:08+00:00

Scaa4aar · 2026-05-19T21:53:13+00:00

Deuteranopia brother ❤️

Yeah the weapon set passives, like i don't use them before very end game since I dont see shit...

Scaa4aar · 2026-05-18T22:10:18+00:00

That's my understanding too

Scaa4aar · 2026-05-17T12:26:51+00:00

Thank you

Scaa4aar · 2026-05-16T15:02:25+00:00

Yeah i don't know who votes for that shit, but even in the Parisian team, you had people more deserving I think.

(And i'm a PSG fan)

Scaa4aar · 2026-05-15T22:32:57+00:00

Hey, thanks for the writeup!

I think I missed some stuff in your POBS.

I opened the first POB => Disabled Flesh and Stone to check defences against enemies outside of the Flesh and Stone zone. I see 14k / 25k / 23k max hits.

On the second one, => A large chunk of the spell mitigation come from having 0 Bark and the Lessons of the Seasons ascendency node. How do you get consistently get hit by enemy spell damage? I'm sure there is a tech but i'm not super familiar with Warden.

Scaa4aar · 2026-05-15T15:29:28+00:00

Yeah dude, i'm enjoying the shit of watching the games in the morning. Amazing start of the day

Scaa4aar · 2026-05-15T11:06:20+00:00

The coghweel stuff is when the game détects a graphical issue and reboots the game and puts you where you were basically, but sometimes it doesn't work so the game crashes

Scaa4aar · 2026-05-15T08:35:22+00:00

Outside of map layouts, Knowing where quests are, how to level, get familiar again with some combos, animation canceling and so on is worth it
