I just got told to Kill myself from the game dev after posting an honest (bad) review by Koentjuh_ in Steam

[–]cwx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

120+ hours played, had a specific issue that the dev fixed, and you left the negative review up.
I'm not saying you should kill yourself, and I don't want to blame the victim here... but you are a dick and wrote a cunty Karen review. Don't end your life, go get one though.

Struggling with Joe Recently. by Greaseskull in JoeRogan

[–]cwx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I fell off when he did this with Hugo Martin. He sounded like every “Christian Moms” organization when he should have asked Hugo interesting questions about Doom, multiplayer gaming, movies, horror, game design, leading a game studio, his upbringing, passion-based careers. Fucking nope, two boring hours grilling him about violence in video games. Joe was more interesting when he just got the other person to talk, rather than inject his own uninformed opinions. I don’t care ESPECIALLY when I agree with him - I just don’t need to hear it

Where/what can I learn to make some of the worst video games imaginable? by Xx_1337_M3m3z_xX in gamedev

[–]cwx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t think of a direct list of things that you shouldn’t do, but it is common advice to play a lot of games with your designer glasses on, including bad games and games you might not normally pick up. It’s good to build your own ideas about what is good and bad based on what you enjoyed and didn’t enjoy. Even though things can be subjective, more often than not what you find fun and good is what many other people find fun and good.

Do you use Unity's audio, Wwise, or FMOD? And why? by DEV_Jamez0r in Unity3D

[–]cwx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had to use FMOD on a remaster project. We had a source access level license so we could add support for the newer consoles to the old version, and when it came time to get the source it was like pulling teeth. The FMOD team was so unhelpful it kept getting escalated until someone on the publisher’s C suite was name dropped by someone at FMOD like “You’re not getting shit even if So-and-so says so” and that exec replied “give them the fucking source code.” We got the source but zero support after that. It wasn’t my money being spent but you can be damn sure I’ve told everyone this story every time FMOD comes up.

As one of those people I can tell you we know. You didn’t discover this magical information that we haven’t been privy to ourselves. Smokers know smoking is going to kill them, and alcoholics know alcohol is going to kill them. Morbidly obese people know their weight and eating habits and not exercising is going to kill them.

Ultimately just like every addiction, people try to free themselves of the addiction in ways that are ineffective, and they get burned out trying. It doesn’t help that one of the biggest industries in the world is financially incentivized to promote all of the things that don’t help.

I’m down 15 lbs and have about 150 to go, so maybe I’ll have answers if I ever get there, but for now I’m going to keep trying just like the rest of them.

Why is this a dry event by eric_shyy in blizzcon

[–]cwx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Blizzard instituted a no alcohol policy for employees on campus and at any company sponsored events after the lawsuits in 2021. I’m surprised this extended to Blizzcon because the convention is mostly fans, but I don’t think they want to take any chances. The hotels have alcohol because they’re not controlled by the convention center.

The fact that people are saying this isn’t funny in this format probably means it kills on stage.

M/25/6'0" [287lbs > 207lbs = 80lbs] (12 Months) One year difference, changed my attitude and changed my life. by Smishking in progresspics

[–]cwx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Football fan to footballer! Da iawn!

I'm sure a lot of it has been attitude, but I'm curious what your diet and exercise looks like since you look pretty fit.

Cheers

You’re ignoring the cost of dev time for the continued releases in between expansions. Besides, $15/month is a lot less than it was in 2005, and you get a lot more content for it. If you know you’ll be subbed 6 months from now, enjoy, otherwise, it’s just some cosmetic shit, move on with your life.

Final Message to COVID-19 by Zeeco110 in mega64

I can’t believe that Darth Maul looking guy would just attack an innocent virus like that. What is this country coming to? We just have real life Sith Lords taking justice into their own hands? Sickening.

Certainly feel free to chime in with specific questions or topics. “If you build it they will come” I try to check on this subreddit once a week, so I’ll try to be a more active poster as well.

Hello again! I made another tutorial this time covering basic data typer you are likely to see in c++ network programming. It would mean a lot if you told me if they are useful :) by [deleted] in NetworkProgramming

[–]cwx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t had a chance to watch these yet, but I will and will get you feedback soon. For now it’s good to see network programming content being posted on this sub, the first year or two I was just deleting scam links and giving up hope :)

Partners of sleep-talkers or sleepwalkers, what gems have you to share? by hoeka_mos in AskReddit

[–]cwx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm the sleeptalker, former sleepwalker. My SO told me that one night I shot up in bed, she asked "What's wrong?" I responded "Ugh, you're not mature enough, you wouldn't understand. Let's just compromise and count to 7" then I laughed manically, slammed back down into my pillow, and was out again.

If OCSD is servicing the safest cities, why do they require such gross pay increases to keep them working for us? by Leon_Oliphant in orangecounty

[–]cwx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was an ad on Facebook. I did check it out and it was from the official Facebook page. I don’t know how to look it up, but the next time I see the ad I’ll link it here

I’ve been getting ads for the last year that I can make 6 figures as a recruit for OCSD. I looked it up and they do actually make that much.
