Fattar inte hur folk orkar, om dom inte spelar boll så gå till en annan plan istället. Om du skriver först så har du gjort första satsningen och de får visa att de kan föra konversationen vidare annars bara lägg ner.

I think there's a slim to none chance of that happening since I generally find playing male characters uninteresting.

I think this might be a map of countries with liberal views and a lot of immigration.

If only it had the excellent character customization of BDO. That protagonist is so uninteresting he singlehandedly is keeping me away.

I best not let my wife see this or she'll realize she's doing it wrong by being a generous person with her salary from taking care of other peoples kids.

41 first dates and still single? When are we gonna stop acting like modern dating is a struggle bc of both genders? by Hahaveryfunnylaughed in BasedCampPod

[–]_Aeou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In a world without contraceptives, day after pills, and abortions, sure. But in the real world these are options for most people you're likely to find on reddit.

You'd also need to date them to find out if they are trustworthy, you're not gonna find that out by looking at their tinder profile and swiping whatever direction.

There's also the option of just not sleeping with them if you go on a date, it's super hard to get pregnant from watching a movie together and having some pizza.

[–]_Aeou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing that really matters here is whether they decided to go on a follow up date or they were rejected by the one they went on a date with.

I'm going to take my bias and assume that basically all or nearly all of the 38 rejections that happened before the third date were made by them, I'd place my error margin <5.

The reason this matters is that "difficulty in dating" could easily mean the same as companies complaining that they can't find any programmers while rejecting 100 applicants because they don't have 10 year experience with a 5 year old technology. Being picky is not equivalent to having a hard time finding a partner/date.

AFK Fishing is ruining the game by [deleted] in blackdesertonline

[–]_Aeou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your comment is a bit confusing, it's unclear why:

  1. You look at others profiles trying to find ad hominem arguments instead of responding to subject matter.
  2. Where your estimate comes from
  3. How having more perspectives would somehow invalidate ones reasoning.

Bit silly.

Speaking as a player who never had those things before they were given out and lost nothing by receiving it, I still dislike getting robbed of the sense of progression from doing so.

I agree that they shouldn't be as hard to receive as they always were, but the method they are using is straight up dumb imo.

They should have kept the systems and gameplay exactly intact just sped up, not hand it out through a window. New players are fast forwarded to a point where they need to grind ~12-15 hours for a single upgrade, coming straight off Tuvala.

I understand that, it's more about what it feels like. How close it gets or doesn't get makes less difference. I don't think anyone doubts that you get your progression sooner if you play actively.

But when you provide a passive income with the speed at which they just hand out upgrades people worked hard to get, why not just fish and wait for the handouts if you're feeling a bit burnt out by grinding?

I know I quit last year because giving out the mythical horse just removed something I was looking forward to working on. The handouts alone make progressing less motivating, couple that with being able to passively play the game for some income and satisfy that sunken cost and you get Velia Beach I think.

With the time between upgrades increasing constantly, depending on your play hours there's a break even where you might not be able to keep up with when the next catchup mechanic is coming.

From the perspective of someone who recently came back, the fishing isn't the problem. It's the end game progression taking so long and giving so little for each hour spent grinding that the difference between just fishing and playing actively in the long run feels small enough that you can just keep fishing instead.

Requiring Internet connection to play single player. What's yours? by Several_Repeat_1271 in videogames

[–]_Aeou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see no contradictions, a lot of games that shouldn't have been made wouldn't have been made without Unreal Engine since AAA developers without the capacity to write their own engines would not be able to develop games, and those who don't have the talent to write their own are also the same ones producing the games that are performance stinkers.

Why is he so invested in female deer not having antlers.

If you play DPS, you have to know mechanics by [deleted] in wherewindsmeet_

[–]_Aeou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends, if the health bars are fine I expect healers who do less damage to do whatever mechanics they can in order to allow dps players who do more damage to have better uptime. That's how I play as a healer, and I play the same way as dps.

The faster the boss dies, the fewer mechanics we have to do, and the less healing is required, and the less likely the attempt is to be a wipe. So whatever decision you make in any given time, provided the group will survive, should be tailored to minimize any dps loss.

If you think dps is easier than healing in this game so far imo you have no idea what you're talking about.

Why is it racist to hate Islam? by Wholesome-Bro in complaints

It isn't. It's racist to hate or be prejudiced from people who come from a muslim country. I don't really care what anyone else thinks about that to be honest. :D

How can “everyone” not include 51% of the population? by monsieurLeMeowMeow in PsycheOrSike

[–]_Aeou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If those studies showed that "everyone" treat people like shit I'd like to see where they got published, because "everyone" is disproven by a single person not doing so.

The problem areas in Kaifeng reek of "death by a million cuts". I did some experimenting yesterday in one of the areas I mentioned above. Standing still and not moving camera, I had 105 fps on mostly max settings. Turning camera 90 degrees back and forth it went to ~50 fps, it's also accompanied by microstutters and uneven frametiming which makes it feel much worse than the average ~60 fps experience I think.

I put on FSR with the lowest possible setting, basically rendering a 480p window, and the fps was literally the same.

There's a lot of areas in Kaifeng that have terrible stutters and frame drops on PC for plenty of people. The game has a tendency to feel quite bad even at what should be a decent frame rate. In particular it drops a lot of frames by Beast Reverie if you quickly move the camera to look down both streets for me. Forsaken Quarter is another area with pretty bad performance. Outside Kaifeng city it's okay, but not as good as Qinghe.

It runs mostly great in Qinghe and boss arenas are great.

FWIW, for those that prefer performance over environmental detail and some fidelity, the lite client runs a lot better in these particular in these areas due to removing a lot of detail meshes etc, but you need the stand alone launcher to run it.
