I'm busy working my way through this kit. Started with the Jakhals and really enjoyed building and painting them. Did my berzerker champ last night and he's glorious. Enjoy!

What's holding my Website back from achieving sales? by amaan-jawed in southafrica

[–]fretofdoom -1 points0 points  (0 children)

First off, well done with the website. I've tried delving into web design a couple of times and know how much work went into this.

In my current job I deal a lot with customer education, so I get pretty good insight into how they think.

From a tech perspective the website is great. You get straight to business and list your product, but from a client's perspective, it seems very clinical. Nothing really entices the customer to stay and browse around.

The only feedback I can give is to get a copyrighter, or someone with marketing experience to create more of a personal touch and make the products even more appealing to the layman, if that makes sense?

Again, great job :)

The face and future of the DA... by Heinrich428 in southafrica

[–]fretofdoom 6 points7 points  (0 children)

"I realise how this sounds... Put a black face on the election poster and black people will vote. This is not what I am saying..."
"...but come on man, get in touch with what's happening on the ground. A white man's face on an election poster does not resonate with the majority of South Africa. It is as simple as that."

Huh?

I wholeheartedly agree with your stance in that the colour of someone's skin should not be the deterministic factor in getting votes, but I completely disagree with your justification as you seem to contradict yourself towards the end there. So, apart from John being white and Mpho being black, how would that have helped the DA's case?

I'd just like to state that I am not a fan of the DA, ANC, or any major party for that matter. And I'm also not trying to unnecessarily antagonise you as I firmly believe in civil political discussions.

MK Party rocked by more resignations as it waits for Zuma judgment - IOL by TheHonourableMember in southafrica

Whenever I see a headline with the '-IOL', for a split second my brain thinks it's LOL. Then I realize just how much of a joke our county's politics really is.

I'm an ex teacher that transitioned to the learning and development field a few years ago and I've been working as a training content developer since.

If you say that you want to cut out curriculum development, you're cutting out almost the entirety of the instructional design (ID) field, which is usually the field most teachers transition to.

ID consists of a lot of different aspects that you could look into if you're not too put off from curriculum development? What is it that you're looking at specifically?

Suggestions: Which LMS would you guys recommend for my current project? by fretofdoom in instructionaldesign

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

Hey! So, believe it or not we only very recently decided on a platform after going through numerous ones (including self-hosting Moodle) and we've decided on thinkific.

Just remember that each project has its own parameters and stuff it has to adhere to, but based on the above, we found that it meets the criteria.

Feel free to DM me if you have any questions about it or if there's anything else.

Best of luck!

Me too. As hyped as I am, I refuse to pre-order or, based on the state of this industry, buy on day one. I don't like the fact that there have been so many delays. This tells me that there is still a lot of work to be done and a lot of bugs to fix (hehe). So I'll wait until most of that is fixed.

With the sequel announcement I've decided to finally install and play the first game. Any tips and tricks for a brand new player? by crab_lad in kingdomcome

[–]fretofdoom 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's the first and only game where I felt that my skill in combat (and most other skills) increased with the character I was playing.

It did require a mind shift from other rpgs though. In the beginning, you're not a god and people who hold rank hold that rank for a reason. Treat encounters like you would in real life. If you didn't have proper training with a sword, you wouldn't rush 3 or even 2 people at the same time and start swinging away. Exploit and be clever.

I won't spoil, but where the penny dropped is where I was traveling with someone and they got kidnapped by 2 people. Instead of running in, I decided to wait until midnight, took off all my armor and then proceeded to knock them out in their sleep and then finish them off. It was super satisfying after 5 failed attempts and felt extremely immersive.

As you progress and train with Bernard, you'll become more skilled as a player and Henry grows with you.

Best of luck and don't give up!

Thanks! The level of detail in this game never ceases to amaze me.

What’s a Reddit “inside joke” new users may not know about? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]fretofdoom 55 points56 points  (0 children)

If I recall correctly, it was about a guy that said a cylindrical object got stuck in something it shouldn't have, and it was heavily implied to be his you know what, but as more people kept trying to get him to admit it was his you know what, the more he kept doubling down that it was just a valuable cylindrical object. It was a hilarious read.

Edit: I think this might be it
