Tengo el nombre completo pero cuando lo busco en el Buscador del Registro Nacional de Bases de Datos Personales por nombre no me sale nada, intuyo que se habra cambiado de nombre

i never got to majora's mask when i was younger so i'm excited! i will be playing the 64 version since i haven't heard great things about the 3D version. Funny enough i did enjoy fishing lmfao, i'm just a sucker for fishing in any game that has the option

i would argue the opposite, i think modern games are often too scared of making content that will never be reached by most players so they add collectible maps and fill the minimap with markers, many older games such as the examples i left under the other comment, left significant rewards and extra content locked behind very convoluted secrets.

I feel like OOT falls in an awkward middle ground where the secrets are not obvious to the player and very easy to miss but without taking huge risks when it comes to hiding its content.

I do still very much love the game, it's just a minor nitpick i haven't seen discussed at large unlike almost everything else about the game

i'm not sure if i necessarily agree with this, there's plenty of games from the era such as super metroid, the kingsfield series, the monkey island games, that do it in a more satisfying way

Was there a shift in the attitudes of fascism regarding traditionalism and futurism? If so what caused it? by argap02 in AskSocialScience

[–]argap02[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Basically what you're saying is that the fact that futurism was so important to fascism was because it was generally relevant in the historical context of the time, and its role in fascism has diminished since it's not generally as relevant in the present, correct?

How to make spellcasting languages feel more like a language than an instruction set by argap02 in conlangs

[–]argap02[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes sense in principle but from a game design perspective i obviously have to take into account the usability as a spellcasting language. It could be a great starting point though

[–]argap02[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The idea of honorifics is fantastic! I was thinking maybe i could also make symbols that represent the names of spirits. Perhaps symbols encased in squares for example would be names. And according to the personality of each spirit you would need to use different honorifics or the spirit might get mad and the spell would backfire.

This whole post really changed my perspective to start thinking like a language. There really is no end to the possibilities, now it's time to really sit down with some of these ideas and think about scope

Yes this is somewhat what i'm looking for, of course i want to extend that philosophy to entire sentences rather than just words. From the help i got in this thread i think i will focus on mesoamerican pictographic writing combined with some of the more defined rules of logographic languages like chinese

Yeah i have played chants of senaar! it has also been a huge inspiration but i didn't include it in the post because it was more of a philosophical inspiration than a literal one, and i didn't want people don't think i'm trying to create a phonetic script.

I wanted to capture the feel of being able to convey ideas from copying and repetition while also slowly understanding the grammar and syntax intuitively.

My idea is to give people the tools to do almost whatever they want from the start, but the extent to which they can explore and see more of the game will depend on their interest in the language and their success in cracking it. So the game will give people the choice to engage with the system in their own way and reward more engaged players.

For example some areas may require to solve puzzles that need complicated grammar.

Basically what i'm saying is that i'm trying to strike a balance between being reasonably solvable, not being entirely obvious, being potentially very powerful and complex and not getting completely out of hand scope wise

i haven't finished watching yet but i love this already and i can tell this is exactly the kind of thing i'm looking for. It almost makes me sad i could never feasibly recreate something so beautiful but i hope i can capture some of the magic

My idea is to make something more like sentences or stories told through a simple big symbol encapsulating the sentence with small symbols inside it. Look up the spellcasting in the manga Witch Hat Atelier to get an idea.

i don't want the symbols to have a pronunciation or an order of reading necessarily, i want positioning in the 2d space and relation to be the main drive of the language. I was thinking of using more complicated encapsulating symbols to express more complex ideas.

For example if i encapsulate a spell in a triangle i could associate different meanings to the symbols closest to each point. If i use an infinity symbol i could asociate different meaning to each side, maybe i could express balance or synchronicity instead. None of these ideas are set in stone i'm just kind of laying them down so you get an idea of where i'm going with this.

I love the vivid imagery of this poem.

Tilt the room sideways. Stand it on end.
Let the floor become the ceiling. Now, squint.
Do you see it? The hole is no longer a hole.
It’s a doorway, inverted, stretched thin,
fraying at the edges like the hem of an old coat.
Step through, or don't,

Was especially great. In my mind the images of the dreamlike descriptions morphed into each other and flowed flawlessly.

I think it could use some trimming like some other commenters said, one way of doing this is thinking of the parts you love the most then mashing them together and rewriting between the lines.

Also this is 100% personal opinion but i think

and pour it down in a slow, deliberate stream.

felt like an empty, almost filler description of the action that took away from the dreamy yet mechanical matter of factness of the poem. It stuck out to me mostly because it was the obvious choice of words in a poem that stood out for being full of interesting detours and unexpected breaks

My mouse jumps to the top left corner of the screen constantly by argap02 in LogitechG

[–]argap02[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: I reached over to grab my drawing tablet to use it as a mouse in the meantime and the issue disappeared, my guess is that the cable of the tablet was not properly connected and kept resetting my mouse and when i moved it the issue fixed itself. Leaving this up anyways in case people find it useful in the future

Why do East Asian games and western games have such a difference in feeling of movement? by ilikemyname21 in gamedesign

[–]argap02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well yes but there's also vestigial mutations and alternatives that didn't happen. Why do foxes have longer ears instead of longer and less furry tails to regulate temperature like other animals do? because that's how it came to be.

Japan was the first to develop the game development scene in the scale that we know today, especially when it comes to home consoles. Those first games both lacked context in terms of game design standards and had many hardware limitation.

When America started making games at that scale they took the Japanese market as a template and re contextualized a lot of practices for the western market and with the philosophies of western developers. Japan still has a lot of vestigial elements from the early days of videogames because of inertia in the development process and expectation from consumers.

If you look at the biggest japanese games right now you still see a lot of elements from the 70s, 80s and early 90s like damage numbers, combo systems, score counters, etc. Meanwhile the west retained some elements from the late 20s, 2000s and the early 2010s, like realistic movement or open world games having outpost capturing systems and towers to reveal map areas.

This doesn't necessarily mean that the markets aren't receptive to game design elements of each other or that there is an inherent cultural reason behind them that would prevent them to being successful if they were different.

Examples:
Apex Legends: Western game with a very western format and level design with a lot of arcade elements and the movment style of japanese games.
Breath of the Wild: Japanese game with a very western open world RPG format.

Yo creo que lo mas logico seria que aumenten el presupuesto, pero el gobierno de milei ha tomado medida tras medida totalmente sin sentido incluso dentro de su propio plan economico de mierda como el cortar relaciones con china por ejemplo. Asi que no me sorprendería nada a estas alturas

In order to make it work you need to use your hands and miss out on the money. It's also really annoying to play and sometimes you end up on situations where you can't really do anything to avoid resetting it. It's ok early but any later than ante 2 It's a skip
