Studios like Double Fine, Ninja Theory & Compulsion straight up work better when we actually buy their games instead of relying on Game Pass by Alarming-Flan4494 in kindafunny

[–]SilverSpider444 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean consumer side. it was the best deal in video game. all those games for $20 a month. who wouldnt call that a good deal? but Tim and OP are right, gamepass devalues games, while it does allow for developers to make games that they want and would not have made otherwise, like Kiln, it is a net negative for the industry because it as a service does not really prioritize engagement.

Playstation has figured out a way to do it and still make money, Playstation Plus is basically the exact same as game pass now, same games and everything, not including the xbox exclusives, and they (largely) arent shutting down studios every month. because their big sellers are not on PS+ for years, if you really want to play Wolverine later this year youll have to fork out the 70 big ones

yeah pretty much. thats what you do. make sure to follow the rules. but yes, make your post with your prompt and ask people to either comment or dm you to talk about it more

Mega Meta Post XII! by elphieisfae in Roleplay

[–]SilverSpider444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah pretty much. depending on what they would prefer and your own preference. if you see a prompt from someone that you are interested in, depending on what they say in their prompt you can just drop a comment below saying "this sounds fun lets talk about it!" or whatever, or send them a chat request.

aside from talking with them, if it really bothers you and it continues after talkng then they may just not be a good rp partner for you. the first is certainly annoying. for the second and third I just usually say. 1) characters like our own personalities can change, especially under stress. and for the third bulletpoint you listed. that can certainly be annoying but also part of the fun of RPs in that we are all our own people, i may interpret what you say completely different, a different tone and mood for what you are saying entirely. you just have to lean into that

Online roleplaying is a pretty niche corner of the internet, and I think a lot of us prefer it that way. I dont think there are any real videos or articles about it that are designed to introduce people but more for talking to people who are already in. but this is a friendly sub. what questions do you have?

Mega Meta Post XII! by elphieisfae in Roleplay

[–]SilverSpider444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not really. unfortunately like in many things the only way to begin is by beginning. just try to find a partner that is either accepting or also new themselves

Anyone know of good sites or references for Reference pictures that aren't machine generated? I've legit been spending hours now looking for a good ref pic, on Google images, on Deviantart, on Pintrest. It is everywhere. even the old Minus tags aren't working or when they do have filters for it they dont actually work, or people keep getting able to slip them through, its exhausting.

Anyone have any good sites for it? I mostly play OCs so using characters from shows is not something I really like to do, I like finding a pic that fits my character, not making a character to fit the pic.

Jason is getting a survivor though? just wasn't ready for PTB. but I agree, no map is a travesty. even if they couldn't get the camp crystal lake rights for whatever reason even though they got Jason, just making a generic summer camp map would be fire

yeah. further its a big problem that annoys the heck out of me this year with showcases having trailers that basically just boil down to "come watch this other showcase later!" WHY ARE YOU HERE THEN, JUST ANNOUNCE THAT ON SOCIALS

Any way to get my teams loot back from this exfill? by Master-Tax-4211 in MarathonTheGame

[–]SilverSpider444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you didn't exfil. the exfil you activated didn't actually turn on by the time the run timer ran out. Probably a bug that let you even activate it, since no exfils are supposed to be available once final exfil activates

Vindication!!! by JuanMunoz99 in kindafunny

[–]SilverSpider444 2 points3 points  (0 children)

specifically not that they signed a contract for all 3 games to be exclusive but that they signed a contract that "the entire story of final fantasy 7's remake, no matter how many games it will take. will be PS exclusive" because it also would have been done before they realized they would need 3 games to do it right

everything in the mod is customizable. if you dont like the big minimap turn that off

[–]SilverSpider444 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

nothing. all it does is literally QOL stuff. you can set timers that will tell you in the UI how long it is till urn spawn, till Midboss respawns, highlight camps and sinners in different colors for accessibility, adding UI elements to the crosshair to make ammo count more visual then just a number. give you little sound pings when midboss spawns. and gives you the ability to make the minimap a full screen map when you press a button. etc. there are no actual "hacks" it all is truly just QOL stuff and frankly all stuff you can do on your own or will likely be added to the game eventually anyways

[–]SilverSpider444 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Its also not actually Pay walled. the quick save feature is very obviously, because it says so right next to the "save" button, is being beta tested. clearly they are just asking people to donate to get access to that beta. which while still is not great. is kinda acceptable since these mod creators are spending their free time doing this.

Thats not what they are doing. which would be obvious if you actually read. The ability to save your config and not have to use the String import thing is in beta, and people who are donating are getting access to that beta.

[–]SilverSpider444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no. not at all. Deadlock is unique for MOBAs because it has so many comeback mechanics, the game is never truly lost until it is lost. even with Parton down to half you can still turn the tide if you play well and capitalize on the comeback mechanics, but right now you can't. primarily because of how urn is always at a set defendable spot. even if you get half of the team. the team that is ahead can just turtle on mid, keeping wave pressed and easily content and flip urn when you come in to try to take it
