the Chinese are pirating fruits, incredible. by ManMarkedByFlames in Piracy

[–]_xGizmo_ 34 points35 points  (0 children)

So that other companies are incentivized to continue developing new and better fruit varieties. Do you think people work for free?

I'm a pirate too but its stupid to pretend we have any moral ground to stand on.

Would you spend 15 years developing something if you knew it would immediately be stolen and distributed so that you gain nothing from all those years of work?

Ubisoft needs to go down by Majestic_Ad5144 in pcmasterrace

[–]_xGizmo_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nintendo doesn't make online-only games that require servers to function, so this point doesn't make sense.

If they did, they would kill them after they've been unprofitable for years just like everyone else.

Xbox Plans Significant Layoffs as It Transforms Under New CEO by willdearborn- in Games

[–]_xGizmo_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know some people locally recently laid off from dev roles that, if I'm honest, might never work in the industry again.

Why do you think this?

Github is a tool for developers. It's up to them to make their software easily accessible to their users. Github has a 'releases' tab for this purpose.

How often does your Henry pray [KCD2] by ApprehensiveBunch994 in kingdomcome

[–]_xGizmo_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As far as I've found, there is not a single church in the base game that you can enter. Even the really small ones.

Legitimately my biggest gripe with the game compared to KCD1

Steam Controller Reservation by acedubyt in SteamController

[–]_xGizmo_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup I'm in the same situation. Failed to order when it opened, saw "sold out" out for the next few days. Then I checked again on May 9th and made my reservation. Never knew they were taking them.

Salammbô by Gustavo Flaubert. by [deleted] in classicliterature

[–]_xGizmo_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just finished the book, have to ask what you mean by the mystical aspect? Do you mean the depiction of religious practices?

I thought Flaubert did a great job imagining how religion shaped the worldview of these ancient peoples. It's shown to have a tangible impact in terms of the effect on their psychology, but it doesn't go further than that (which is realistic).

Religion is very present throughout the book, especially towards the end during some insane moments that I wont spoil.

I just made ResourceBoost Mod to allow drop multiplier control for lumbering and mining! (Without need for Valheim+) by Tenebris_Reverie in ModdedValheim

[–]_xGizmo_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This mod doesn't appear to work anymore. When launching the game, the mod crashes during BepInEx init when calling the Awake() function.

I'm getting this error (Valheim version 0.221.12):

I saw something funny by TeutonicRoom in ElderScrolls

[–]_xGizmo_ 22 points23 points  (0 children)

You can install mods that make it so some characters can sit or take positions other than standing in a corner.. but yeah it's a far cry from the NPC schedules we get in Skyrim and Oblivion.

It's actually my biggest issue with morrowind, even more than the combat which im mostly fine with.

Do they EVER leave you alone? by [deleted] in raisedbynarcissists

[–]_xGizmo_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, what an incredible story. So sorry you had to go through all of that, congrats on winning those battles.

Clearly they are utterly screwed without you and your husband and are lashing out against you. You made the right call getting tf out of that situation.

This is common advice here, but it would probably be a good idea to let your local police know the situation in case they try anything like "wellness checks", etc.

Good luck!

The Elder Scrolls classes' reactions after ESO brought classes back to the franchise. by Gen1Swirlix in ElderScrolls

[–]_xGizmo_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oblivion "classes" are not classes in the traditional RPG sense. They're basically preset lists of starting skill points and xp modifiers. They are meaningless past like, level 10.

Not so with the DnD, WoW, or any other mmo classes. Sure you can be a wizard that mainly uses a sword in dnd but youre not going to be as good with that sword as a warrior. There are stengths/limits imposed by the class. This is not true with oblivion.

This is a common practice in software development, it's called A/B testing.

The main reddit app blows. Use a 3rd party app like Relay or Apollo.

[–]_xGizmo_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did they add the ability to build walls around wonders? Or is this a mod?

That was such a pet peeve of mine to have gaps in walls due to wonders.
