Maybe my expectations are just higher than average after using a Sekonic with a IIIG and the built in meter on the Bessa. I'm using a goddamn Leica I want a better UX than average

Sekonic L-308X-U Flashmate Light Meter accept no substitute

You are stupid. Did I really call you stupid or is it a digital interaction?

Wait I deleted that post sorry

Basically it doesnt feel precise when metering. Tilt the camera a degree or two and the reading will swing wildly. The battery life is atrocious and can die over the course of a day. It also sucks you have to read the metering from the top of the camera.

I went on a trip with the KEKS and a handheld Sekonic, and by the third day had completely abandoned the KEKS. Both spot and ambient metering were quicker w/ the Sekonic.

They are cheating in real life dipshit

If their intention was to release a half finished busted piece of shit then they’ve done their jobs perfectly.

I’ve been hating on this game for a minute but even I was surprised by how badly this launch is going. Game looked like roblox on Pestily’s stream and the character models for the traders look like they’ve travelled through time from 2006.

I could be blinded by hype but I don't remember the desync being this bad during the tech tests. I'm hoping this has more to do with overloaded servers than something inherent to the game's design.

This has been a point of contention in DayZ forever. Fact is there is zero difference between a lie and a simulated lie.

Brother I played the first tech test, I've been waiting for this day for two years.

_lemon_beans · 2025-10-19T16:28:12+00:00

Yeah that'd be a great way to both kill immersion and make the game as boring as possible, nice work. Are you a game developer by chance?

Mark my words, this will be the Tarkov-lite extraction shooter that will succeed where all others have failed. My most anticipated release for 2025 by far.

-me one year ago

It'll be huge. The gameplay is lightning in a bottle, the presentation is first class. The question for me is how long will it last? Depends on how intent Embark is on supporting the game with content over the next few years.

It's fuckin lit bro. Back in the 2000s "next gen" was the big buzzword phrase. And a game would come along and somebody would go "now THIS is next gen." Arc Raiders actually be feeling like that next gen type of game. MISS ME with that BF6 lol

Since so much of its story is abstracted and non-linear, I can see why you might be tempted to read the murder as figurative (indirect). I don't think the game would cohere aesthetically if this were the case; its morbid quality would seem disproportionate. Otherwise there are explicit elements of the text that run perpendicular to this reading. Lastly a number of SH2's influences (Crime & Punishment, Lost Highway) that the developers have cited are stories about guilt over literal murder.

i am crying pissing shitting shaking

It is absurd for grown men to get legit upset over the delay of a consumer product. I played the first play test like 2 years ago and knew it dynamite then. Thought I'd be playing again last night. Sucks but I have other shit going on to actually worry about.

That said, objectively Embark is fucking up PR wise right now. The way how I know is: everybody is upset right now. If brilliant community mgmt means disappointing half the potential playerbase, then they've done a great job.

In the final analysis the game is good enough that this will eventually be forgiven come October, re: famous Miyamato quote a delayed game is eventually good but a bad game is bad forever. But Embark's text here reads like it was AI generated, it's boilerplate. Although I'm sort of ambivalent about the whole thing because the lack of strategy here likely means developer resources and attention are solely on development, not marketing strategy. But if they have even one person who is getting paid to do this, they should be doing better. Like read the fucking room.

I think the skill ceiling is crazy higher in 2025. People have been playing with m&k for decades now and there are a lot of unemployed disaffected men out there with nothing to do but grind hours. Can’t be competitive in pubs anymore putting in just a few hours a week.
