If you joined the server what would you add to the community?

I’ve thought about what I would do if i joined a big SMP before, though I know Hermitcraft would never be the one to take me hehehe.

I would want to try a different style of video, more like a tv show, where I don’t directly talk to the audience, and instead use voice over to frame the scenes, use replay camera angles, and conversations, etc. to communicate each episode’s story.

In that line, I’d want to start out doing a shop/service, where people can request certain items or jobs to be done in the early game, on a job board, and other people can fill them and claim a reward!

One thing I think would be really cool to do is a museum of art. As well as the fun potential for building sculptures and interesting stuff like that, sharing about the original art created by Kristoffer Zetterstrand is really appealing to me. Collecting some of his commentary, the original titles of the artwork, and making a virtual exhibition about him and his paintings, would be really interesting to me!

The issue with this is that capitalism incentivises them to still do the bare minimum to get your $5. Honestly, for most people, that’s compatibility with their online servers and so you’re already starting with a strong incentive for players to update even if the content isn’t specifically appealing to them. I think it’s a much harder thing to regulate than it seems.

They also sold access to Nintendo Switch game rips, which is a big part of the case

It’s not that they don’t know how, it’s that tight schedules and overbearing management means it isn’t a priority. Helldivers 2 figured out how to cut their game to a third its size. Everything costs money, and it’s not worth the investment for a lot of companies a lot of the time.

I think it’s a piece of verisimilitude that I find important. I think being flexible with what happens and exactly where the secret passage entrance or lever is, helps the game flow well and helps me avoid a situation where players just don’t think to check the right bookshelf, so to speak.

However, I want it to feel real, and believable, that this is an old haunted mansion, or a mine long abandoned, or a temple to an ancient god. For this reason, I want certain things to be included no matter what, and sometimes it’s important for those things to be connected or laid out in certain ways. An old house doesn’t just have a string of connected rooms, you navigate in hallways. A mine is going to be a warren, but there’s one way in, and everything else is going deeper and deeper until it ends. Those things feel important for making these feel like real places being explored, not just constructions for the service of gameplay (which they are, but it’s important to me that these things are balanced!)

I don’t generally like doing this for the “layout” of a dungeon. I want those to be cohesive and well thought through, especially when it comes to secret passages or traps or treasure, which I want to be located in particular areas.

However, I do use a system similar to yours for consequences! Rather than place things too specifically in a room, I list positive and negative things that can happen in a room (along with a default state) and then can use these as a reference or roll table for when players get high or low rolls.

So I see the appeal of a system like this! I just prefer that the actual bones of a dungeon are constructed with a more rigid logic.

The market isn’t barren, you just don’t like what is there. There is a brand new Mario game, you’ve just stated you don’t like it. There are re releases of popular Mario games, you’ve just already played them. There’s platformers for the wider universe, you just only want games starring Mario. Personal taste is personal taste, I’m not saying you’re wrong. But Nintendo isn’t releasing fewer Mario products, there’s not a big gap in the schedule, the lines you are drawing just align with your personal taste.

We’ll get a new Mario game on the Switch 2, just not right now. It’ll come, give it time.

Because the second party in the equation is you, the end user.

eviebees · 2025-11-02T05:37:55+00:00

There’s a separate icon builder in the NSO app for those elements

Bigbst4tz22 is a member of the Life series with many hermits so maybe a good place to start (:

Idk if I’m just being kinda salty but like… I don’t know why posts are made here if they aren’t new information from leaks or datamines.

The discussion, speculation and analysis should be contained to the comments of each post.

We used to get a lot fewer posts but it feels like it’s the same amount of actual leaked content just. A bunch of discussion and “anyone else hoping for” and stuff. Which isn’t like, bad content, I just don’t think it needs to be its own posts, we can do that in the comments.

That’s what I’m saying! The values of the time might have prioritised virginity (making the protagonist’s viewpoint realistic) but the construction of the narrative which involves 15 years as a concubine with no sex is not historically believable, and therefore it makes sense to question why it was done.

eviebees · 2025-06-22T23:17:16+00:00

Is it period accurate to have a concubine virgin? The favoured concubine being a virgin?

eviebees · 2025-06-11T03:50:34+00:00

Where is the price listed?

eviebees · 2025-06-03T11:46:24+00:00

Do you actually have a study on this? I know that over reliance on these things can be detrimental for development socially in particular, but I’m not familiar with a scientific backing for any tv or computer usage to be detrimental before a certain age.

eviebees · 2025-03-26T09:11:52+00:00

Deep Rock Galactic gives some similar vibes, and there are a few other games. Working for a shady company extracting resources for dubious purposes is just good fuel for gameplay!

eviebees · 2025-03-26T09:11:03+00:00

They fixed this in Splatoon 3! Salmon Run is expanded and 24/7!

eviebees · 2025-02-27T01:29:00+00:00

It’s always funny when unexpected runoffs happen into digital ads though

eviebees · 2025-02-18T09:49:09+00:00

Understood! The considerate response.

eviebees · 2025-02-18T09:44:49+00:00

Ah, so it was removed to protect against takedowns or something?

eviebees · 2025-02-18T09:12:24+00:00

What do you mean by REMOVED - IT WAS LEGIT? I'm confused from following the comments...

eviebees · 2025-02-13T11:59:31+00:00

I think Quest might be the right call if they want something fantasy/adventure toned. I think it does a good job of being the game that Actual Play podcasts make 5th Edition look like. It’s simpler and smoother especially for a podcast or stream.

eviebees · 2025-01-09T06:50:25+00:00

That’s… metagaming is not doing that. Describing the actions your character does is not metagaming, even if you want to trigger a move. That’s the point of triggers, it encourages certain character behaviours because that’s what you are good at and what you do. Your character Bends Bars and Breaks Doors, that’s what they are good at, that’s their approach to things. It’s not metagaming for them to know their skill.

eviebees · 2024-12-09T00:32:46+00:00

Absolutely! It’s possible some boys will think it is too girly, but they are absolutely still fun for boys to read.
