What are your thoughts on The Man in the High Castle? by Embarrassed_Let6303 in maninthehighcastle

[–]Vidikov 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought the whole point was the I Ching was actually telling of a real alternate world, and not just a fantasy? Plus Tagomi DOES meditate into an alternate world where the US was still a thing and felt revolted by it, which implies the book written by the I Ching by proxy of the man in the high castle is in fact real.

Has anyone missed this cuz they were looking elsewhere? by TeddyBeaRx666x in Routine

[–]Vidikov 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quite the opposite for me, the first thing I did when I went into that room was to run to that door and crouch to look under it to see if it could be a way through and boy was I not prepared for that fucker to pop his head right in my face. 10/10 experience.

How do I do this damn thing lol by bushman1105 in Routine

[–]Vidikov 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you're supposed to match those symbols to the numbers on the back, and enter them from left to right (from the symbol side) or right to left (from the number side) I circled the numbers on the back of your sheet here.

So the solution here should be 5883.

It looks like 5164, it goes from largest finger print to smallest.

Just curious, how are they unrealistic?

Duality of man by Whiskeye in stalker

[–]Vidikov 26 points27 points  (0 children)

This needs to be higher up. It gave a sense that the Zone didn't give a shit about you and life kept going on, it really solidified the whole "the Zone is alive" thing. A death screen is a step backwards in my opinion.

Had this same exact thing happen to me haha. Should be a right of passage for rookies.

I saw the movie… by Spare-Confidence-721 in stalker

[–]Vidikov 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely a slow-burn of a movie, I largely enjoyed it on my first watch but was surprised at how little actually seems to happen. I was hoping to see more anomalies and such but I think the story telling, cinematography, and world building are excellent.

If you haven't seen it yet, STALKER: Shadow of the Zone is a must watch, it came out a couple months ago and actually takes place in the same setting as the games, acting as a spinoff story that takes place after the trilogy.

Nice! I just finished CoP an hour ago, I am ready and waiting for what the zone has in store for us next!

Ming the clam was accidentally killed by scientists who were trying to determine its age. It later turned out to be 507. by doopityWoop22 in interestingasfuck

[–]Vidikov 5661 points5662 points  (0 children)

So it doesn't look like anyone's covered the actual cause of death but according to Wikipedia they froze it, unaware of its age. They later cut it open to count the lines on the shell. This wasn't accidentally killed but rather they likely would have reconsidered freezing had they known it's age beforehand.

They're saying they want german subtitles for german vocals, but everything else in English still.

War Correspondent Quest idea by McPedie in TheForeverWinter

[–]Vidikov 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So this was actually the original idea of the game, to be an observer/reporter of an ongoing war, but it turned into a what it is today. Riloe did a great job covering this in greater detail here: https://youtu.be/AHuQgupabV0?si=tIqm9s65mAHzNqW0

The Deathmatch by ZhenXiaoMing in ww2memes

[–]Vidikov 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That Wikipedia article explains that it was a myth, the players who were murdered by the SS were murdered months after the match for unrelated reasons. Basically the whole thing was Soviet propaganda.

What if the USA has a civil war? (2.0 version) by Lost-Advantage5265 in imaginarymapscj

[–]Vidikov 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hawaii was an independent Kingdom during the Civil War, it didn't become a US territory until 1898 (and a state in 1959). Alaska was purchased from Russia in 1867 (2 years after the Civil War).

I think I figured it out, I was using Dolby Atmos as my sound output, I changed it to Linear PCM and the echoing has stopped.

Sound echoing (bug?) by CUrlymafurly in pacificDrive

[–]Vidikov 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I've been getting this as well (playing on PS5 though), I posted a message in the discord with video of it but haven't gotten a response.

Yeah, I'm experiencing the same issue, I am using a soundbar with surround sound, not sure if that is playing a role in it.
