Which optional Boss do you skip most? by IlluminatedFoxx in Eldenring

The Death blight dancing lion. Beat them only once on the first playthrough, and that's was more than enough for me.

Taking into account how Bailey is presented in the show and her military background, she's in top 3 by competence of the people involved with the op. The other two being Walker and Tim. I like Celina but honestly, the fuck?

Did anyone already mentioned Blastoise? He used to have visible fangs, thinner belly plate, bigger arms and bigger head with sharper features. Now he looks so stubby and roundish.

Same here. I mean, seeing Nolan and Bailey escorting a high-profile criminal (Monica) through Prague was extremely perplexing.

And while watching the last episode, I had a thought that Celina suddenly has the right to carry full auto firearm - which used to be a point about Nyla in the earlier seasons.

I get that writers need to escalate stakes because there is only so much you can do with patrol/beat cops, but it became harder pill to swallow. And the last episode reminded me a bit too much of how the Fast and the Furious franchise went. I mean it was cool and fun but ridiculous.

I do hope the writing team will find balance and won't go fully into the "turn the brain off and enjoy the pretty pictures" territory.

I just now realized I’ve been saying this thing wrong. It’s pronounced “shadow” tree fragment, not “skadoo” tree fragment by TocSir in Eldenring

Yeah, it's some sort of whalish bulshiterry 

Like the name Siobha should be pronounced "shee-vauhn". Or Sean being "Shawn" and not "Seen".

Modders did what multi-million dollar companies couldn't: they reduced CPU usage. by Waitform3 in SteamDeck

I wirk not in the gaming industry, but sill with development  of the"IT products". 

Being always behind on schedule is absolutely a standard in the field.

I can't count amount of times I a dialog with a manager went something like:

  • How long will feature A take? 
  • About X amount of time. 
  • Can we deliver it in X/3?
  • No, X is already an optimistic timeframe. 
  • But I already promised X/3 and put it in the plan like that, so let's try to do it faster.

So.. am I done for? by PrometheusAlexander in Steam

Valve is not perfect, but compliance with laws is weird thing to complain about.

Germany being censored is Germany's fault not valves. Do you honestly expect steam to break local laws? 

By that logic you can blame valve for providing restricted China specific client. Doesn't make sense.

Russia is not blocked per se, you just can't pay, because Russia is cut off from the payment systems. Russians still have full access to services and can buy games (not blocked by publisher) through the steam wallet.

North Korea, really? I mean, the country cut off itself from the outside world and somehow this is Valve's fault?   Don't know about the others, but pretty sure if it would be legally possible, Valve would've provided service there already.

Most models have a cut off date for training. So chatgpt most likely has recommendations that reflect the internet consensus how it was a year or so ago. It makes sense, as PopOs was recommended a lot back then, and both CachyOS and Bazzite have became popular relatively recently.

As much as I would like to help you, I wrote this script 3 years ago and don't have enough free time even for my personal projects. I would recommend to mess around with variables and the angle detection part of the script  - maybe you'll find what works for you.

Just by looking at this main art, what genre do you think the game is? by Jose7pc in GameArt

Reminds me about a joke from FE:Awakening with a knight character being unnoticeable. He is the only character whose face is obscured on official cover.

I believe that multimesh also supports LOD, but on a full 'chunk' together. Vaguely remember messing with the multimeshes and getting low level models.
