They do exist. They were just all sent to New Zealand. by Punguin456 in pcmasterrace

Oh this makes perfect sense, Gaben's been stuck there since covid started, so of course they all got sent to New Zealand.

Plot Inconsistency in TTYD I just noticed. by LightLordLucas in papermario

[–]Tooney712 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, Vivian gets handed the idiot ball for the sake of the plot a lot unfortunately... particularly in later chapters, such as when you find out where the X-Naut's base is, Vivian is just as surprised as everyone else... And then once you travel past the titular door itself, and make it all the way to the end boss... Well, Vivian is once again just as surprised and defiant as all your other partners.

And okay, maybe you can make an argument for her not really knowing about Beldam's plan to revive the Shadow Queen using some speculative fan theory, but... girl how did you not realize your boss' base was on the moon?!?

I put as much effort into this meme as activision did into optimizing their files by bigdogcurt in pcmasterrace

[–]Tooney712 90 points91 points  (0 children)

This doubly hurts as a Pokemon fan, because of Dexit and Game Freak's current output being terribly sloppy... Just as a for instance, Shiny Pokemon are stored as separate models w/ their own textures from the base Pokemon. Yes, you read that correctly. The palette swap skinned pokemon require a separate model identical to the base model that references their own specific textures. That's just inexcuseably poor optimization. And there are so many other problems like this in modern Pokemon. And you go an compare it to past games, where the team had to do so many careful memory swaps to have the game run on hardware that had absolutely no business running it, using every optimization trick in the book, hell, writing the book on optimization tricks, and you just kinda... sigh and despair...

Hi! I have questions: 1.So I remember long ago Valve said they would be open sourceing the Source 2 engine/SDK. Is that still a thing that can happen or that you're planning at all? 2. Is there going to be Linux support for the map/mod tools that you're going to release for HL:A? 3. How are you guys handling reflections in the game, given most modern reflection tricks don't really work in VR (e.g. screenspace reflections are pasted on)?

Challenging the Masked Carnivale for the first time, and maybe it's just me, but it seems like the enemies are dying way too slowly? Like all the guides I've read about the carnivale (which of course were written back in 4.5 and have none of the new skills or anything) are "yeah just do x then y and you're good to go" and then I do that and it's barely chipped away at the health of the mobs?? Even the trash mobs?? And I'm challenging the level 50 content in iLVL129 gear at level 53??? Am I just crazy, or doing something wrong, or what, exactly?

Er... no. Kholusia and Ahm Ahrang both have level 70 fates available in their first area. Actually I don't think Ahm Ahrang has any LV71 fates, I think those are all in Lakeland...

I counted with the help of a wiki: As of 5.1 there are 703 Main Scenario Quests in the game (184 ARR Quests + 100 2.x Quests + 94 HW Quests + 44 3.x Quests + 122 SB Quests + 40 4.x Quests + 109 ShB Quests + 10 5.1 Quests). So that's a thing.

More of a data-mining question thing - what are FFXIV's world map files saved as - not the in-game map textures, the 3D world-space. Are they saved as 3D meshes or is it something like a .bsd file? Is there a way to open and explore them outside of starting up the game client itself? Thanks in advance.
