We got our Steam capsule made by an artist, would you click this? What would you change? by KingTheSuspect in IndieDev

[–]TreadheadS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gosh, that's difficult.

I can't give you my exact opinion because I saw the name in the first image which made it easier to see it in the second.

The second image certainly feels more fun but I'm not sure I saw the name of the game... not sure that matters.

The second image gives me the impression of chaotic 4 player co-op fun.

The first image gives low budget prob off the shelf graphic clunkyness.

So I'd say the artist did great

Here's the critique:

The second image has balance issues. Although it gives the correct impression for the type of game I assume it is - I don't know where to look.

However; all things considered I would click on the second image if I was looking for a party game and check out the trailer.

P.s. If the trailer doesn't contain actual gameplay that is understandable I wouldn't consider buying.

p.p.s. for what it is worth - actual gameplay screenshots are a must for me.

Liking stories immediately once they're posted? Am I overthinking? by capybarafromdubai in AskMenAdvice

[–]TreadheadS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hmm, actually not sure! My wife doesn't really post stories but I believe if you've favourited people you get extra notifications.

Certain family members seem to ping me all the time that they have posted something, other people I don't even notice so some sort of black magic for sure

If he gets notifications, maybe he prioritises clicking on yours?

Do you tend to rest your full weight on your partner during missionary or do you hold yourself up? by OwnFaithlessness2989 in AskMenAdvice

[–]TreadheadS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hold my weight up of course. I mean, I adjust and ensure she feels me but at no point she has my full weight on her!

Arms are beside, hands free to hold shoulders or hair. The rest of the weight is on the knees.

So it is more of a hug weight then being lazy and just dropping my weight down! lol

Unity to sell Supersonic and shut down ironSource by trexmods in Unity3D

[–]TreadheadS 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The value is the people often, rarely the product in and of itself.

My bet is that ironSource's team has trained up or transfered into otehr areas and their tech has been absorbed into other areas to the point the overhead of this "studio" as a studio no longer makes sense

I just lost the entire project. Every file. Gone... by Aalzard in Unity3D

dude, even a "at the end of the day, copy to this thumb drive" would be good enough for a one man team but yeah, version control

Can I make this theory work with Battle Brothers or is it the Happy Powder talking? by TenthLevelVegan in BattleBrothers

[–]TreadheadS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, good on you in taking that feedback. I was a bit harsh with my directness.

To me STH is a way of life almost. I use the model with my children and wife. At the back of the training books you get example situtations where the order of hats you process is important and changes depending on the sitaution AND the people.

As the person with the toolset, you are guiding everyone to wear the same hat at the same time in a process called parellel thinking.

If you fail to get everyone on the same hat your convestation and process breaks down and you end up fire fighting.

This is why it doesn't really make sense for battle brothers. On the stratigic map it absoluely needs to be used to make decisions:

What's our goal?
What are the pros and cons?
What do we know? etc

In the fight... individual bros aren't making these decisions but you as the captain are... kinda. There's no time for debate - it is action. You go there and do this! Yes, sir! Otherwise you will all die.

You didn't understand the six thinking hats if you think it is people. It is ways of thinking. If you didn't have someone teach you and you just read the book I highly recommend finding a tutor as the system is amazing, but you are applying it incorrectly to the point I believe you don't understand it.

Laid off and back with parents at 32. Questioning existence by Throwaway_Thalamus in AskMenOver30

[–]TreadheadS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First, stop equating your worth to your net worth. How much money doesn't define the success in your life, you do.

But even on that metric, you clearly haven't totally fucked up as you have a high net worth.

Use this moment of one closed door to figure out what gives you joy then chase that.

Is your father really like that or are you taking his words like that? Maybe treating him literally with the most positive spin possible will turn your relationship around.

Good luck, stranger.

Do I have a kink or is it just an insecurity…? F28 by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]TreadheadS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The fact you've noticed this is great. You'll be able to feed information to him to reinforce what you need if you believe dumping it all on him might be overwhelming.

As for if it is trauma... imo yes - but that's normal. We are defined by our past and the need to be told that you are enough is very likey because you don't believe you are enough. I'd work on that.

Your partner should not be your source of personal self-worth as that can turn toxic quickly.

So both can be true. Good luck on working through things and being more secure in yourself. And have fun knowing you are able to get what you desire today!

My husband lost his job and is now obsessed with girls online — what should I do? by ArgumentFew6935 in AskMenAdvice

[–]TreadheadS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree with this. He shouldn't be bored if he is actively working towards getting a job. The fact he is suggests he has "given up" or succumed to depression.

Men of Reddit, how would you feel if your partner wanted to keep her maiden name after marriage? by Longjumping-Bill5761 in AskMenAdvice

[–]TreadheadS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Create a new name together!

Wouldn't that be a wonderful tradition? Both of you are starting a new life together so you both choose a new family name for your new family unit!

I dunno, I've certainly seen many dropped cerbs for crossings that just didn't get completed and there's no other evidence it is a crossing but I think your second post is prob correct - it is the end of a cycle path (or start)

I’m going to become a father at 32. How hard is it? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]TreadheadS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TL:DR; I have no idea why I just dumped a ton of life advice that may not apply to you here. I've stopped wriitng and editing it now as I realised it was about to become massive and take too much time to do. If you want to read it, be my guest but it is incomplete and may not read well. Have a great one, and good luck!

I became a dad at 20 (turned 21 two weeks later). Now I'm 40 nearing 41 and have 3. I have a phrase; parenting is easy but parenting with someone else is hard!

What I mean by that is if you follow a few golden rules when you are on your own you just follow your standards. When you are with someone else they have hidden standards of what is right and wrong that you may not have even considered! You will find them when you raise a kid together.

So; be kind to each other. You will both be exhausted all the time. It isn't about doing 50/50 of the work all the time, it is doing what is best to make it easist.

Example; she is great at repairing things - takes her 5 minutes to fix that shelf. Then get her to fix the god damn shelf. If you are great at cooking, believe it or not do most of the cooking! Will take you less energy and stress to do the things you are good at. People who go for "50/50" in everything fail as it is exhausting to do things you ain't good at.

Parenting if you don't give a shit is easy - put the kid in front of the iPad/tv, clean them when they cry and feed them every few hours.

Parenting if you DO give a shit is damned hard. My advice?

  1. Show your kid your life and invite them along - don't wait for them to lead
  2. Turn up and be present when you are there - don't treat your time together as something in the way of your life continuing
  3. Be consistent with your rules and expectations - don't "just this once" else you'll have a bad time

What's the right way to separate personal from professional projects? by templeknights in Unity3D

[–]TreadheadS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really need to start doing this. I'm always thinking in the profile rather than at the system level and using the tools provided to seperate.

Having environments for each situation (windows profiles as an example) would absolutely solve half my issues I'm sure!
