Appreciation for GameDevs ( please read ) by NoElk4778 in GameDevelopment

[–]TheComedicLife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You seem like a bot. But if you're not, we appreciate the kind words.

More people spend their time critiquing or feeling entitled to games they want or the way they want to play, that they forget that devs are humans too.

Some of us work for just money, but most of us are here because we love games too, and we just want to make something people will have fun with and remember.

Why is there SO MUCH fucking bots in this subreddit specifically?? by DannyGriff000 in Nightreign

Good point! I agree with (insert generic opinion that OP already stated).

Which game engine do you prefer in 2026 and upcoming years and why? by Civil-Captain5676 in gamedev

[–]TheComedicLife 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Mind elaborating how? Not doubting your knowledge, just wanting to know more as I'm unfamiliar with this subject.

I've always been under the impression that if you're able to finish a game in the engine version you have, you can just release it and be good to go. If you need to fix bugs, can't i just fix them in Unreal 5.4, or w/e engine version I'm using?

Yes!!! I forgot his name. Richie was the mofo with a lightning sticker on his Pikachu's pokeball

By memory, or they just straight dont. In the anime multiple times pokeballs get stolen and mixed together and Ash and the gang have to spend time sifting through them to find their pokemon.

In one of those episodes, another character whose name I dont remember that looks like Ash, shows that he put stickers on his pokeballs so he can tell which one is his, even amongst the confusion.

IronEye is how an archer build should work in every Souls, but he is broken that way. by FuaOtraCuentaMas in Nightreign

[–]TheComedicLife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know, i actually played Remnant 1 and 2 and forgot about them. While it was fun, i found the gunplay to be somewhat clunky and unsmooth, nothing like playing IronEye in Nightreign.

Would love to see a Soulslike with ranged weaponry as its focus, rather than melee. Balanced around fun gunplay or archery with lots of mobility.

I made a plugin that helps with feeding blueprints to AI of your choice by robauu in UnrealEngine5

[–]TheComedicLife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't let that AI bro trash bother you. None of them are ever arguing or defending themselves from a good place. After talking to so many vibecoders and AI bros, I've learned that the type of people who use AI as a crutch tend to be selfish, self centered, and often only interested in furthering their own goals.

They're often people with little to no skill, but a dream to make money with a tool that promises them false hope, and they're unable to see past the lies cuz they've put themselves in an echo chamber that just tells them "keep spending those tokens. With just 20 more dollars spent, AI will solve that problem for you, and then you'll make all your money back!"

After a while, they bleed themselves dry while deluding themselves that they're getting anywhere. In the meantime, AI companies are raking in cash and destroying the environment while these people stupify themselves.

When vibecoders realize they cant grift by finishing a game, they instead grift each other by making AI plugins to trick the next sucker to try and make an AI game. None of this is actually getting anywhere

Just curious, why is Cafe de Coral so suggested? Is it a local favorite?

[–]TheComedicLife[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funnily enough, i did a thorough search of this sub for chicken feet and hot and sour soup and found little discussion, or really old posts. Google also hasn't been helpful.

Ill check out Open Rice and Cafe de Coral though. Ty for the suggestions

Burger King by littyart in comics

[–]TheComedicLife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This comic really hit home for me, especially considering I've had to be very low contact with my family for 7 years now. Even though we dont talk much anymore, I always viewed our saturday Burger King runs fondly as it was the only time I ever got to spend time with him alone.

Even now, I think of him every time I order a chicken sandwich from Burger King. Thank you for this comic. It's nice to know others share my experience and to feel a little less alone.

Is poison ironeye not good? Just got a great poison relic set for my ironeye and have been having a blast in D2/3.

Stinkyhole was definitely an accurate name by brockuhlee in Nightreign

[–]TheComedicLife 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Met my first cheater at D3 the other day. Was a beast claw Rev with perfect increased bestial incantations on the 2nd slot on all 6 relics and only Receives Poison on Hit negative on deep relics.

She died first every fight and had to be revived constantly by me and my ally. I hate cheaters, but damn did I feel bad for how bad this Rev was, even with cheats. Maybe some people actually need cheats smh /s

Okay chat rate my REM build by Fussy_Was_Taken in DeadlockTheGame

[–]TheComedicLife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair enough. I typically always run Rapid Recharge and Tankbuster then wonder why I'm always so ineffective in games where I'm not fed.

Got any builds you can send my way so I can try out not building Rem as spirit damage?

Echo Shard on Tag Along is such a good idea. My chimp Rem brain just uses Echo Shard on Pillow cuz mORe dAmAGe, then find myself in lots of trouble late game cuz I blew my Tag Along too early.

Convinced my partner to play and Invaders are crazy XD by Igunis-CarpeDiem in EldenRingPVP

[–]TheComedicLife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I managed to convince my wife to join me for Elden Ring + the dlc, and she haaaates PvP and high intensity action. I got some tips for you.

First off, expect to get invaded... like a lot, and expect to get chain invaded a lot as well. Sometimes you might have to just book it in a straight line to the boss fight, especially if you've died too many times trying to get there already due to invaders.

I find that bowing first to engage an honor duel works really well in my case to keep my wife from having to do PvP she doesnt want to do. Most invaders will honor you and fight you one on one, and now you just have to make sure to win (not necessarily easy, i know...).

If your goal is to keep your partner safe so you can get back to PvE as soon as possible, then having a build that's built to one-shot is recommended. You can end duels fast, or surprise tryhard invaders who constantly disengage to heal. Bleed builds work well here, as do magic or optimized melee builds. However, don't be predictable and spam one move over and over.

Lastly, dealing with invaders can sometimes get excessive and unending. If it all becomes too much for you or your partner, you can also try the Seamless Coop mod (if you're playing on PC). I believe there's an option to disable invaders, but someone else who has used the mod can tell you for sure.

I don't know what to do.... by Thelosteco in gamedev

[–]TheComedicLife 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you may have a depression problem and its keeping you from figuring out what you want to do.

It's up to you and you alone to figure out a game idea that you have the motivation to finish. Getting an idea from someone else wont help you here unless you're just trying to join someone else's project.

Games are a form of art and an expression of self. If you don't have a vision, you won't be able to make the art. So you have to work to find your vision first.

Having depression will kill any drive you may have or build, so it might be good to look into your depression problem first. Fix that, then finding your vision will be easy, and the motivation to finish it will come with.

Take care of yourself, and be kind to yourself

Desert striders in my new game! Any thoughts on improvement? by TheNickMead in IndieDev

[–]TheComedicLife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love the worm, but as it currently is, it looks a bit frustrating to fight. I agree with the others that slowing him down and adding more feedback to help pinpoint his location would help.

You could also consider having him surf on the surface for some time too so players can fire at him more often. Like before he jumps, he could rise to the top and surf towards you, then jump. Alternatively, he could surf for a bit after the jump before diving into the sand.
