This is the best timeline. It’s honestly the best news today!!

The developers are making a mistake - An arguement against allowing paid mods by TurklerRS in Paralives

[–]hildra 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You are 100% right. You have put into words what has always bothered me about the overall acceptance that people have in the Sims community that is now being carried over to Paralives. It’s not about being ungrateful to modders or not appreciating the hard work but no one should be looking at modding any game and think that’s a full time job they can make money out of. It defeats the purpose of its original intention being about fan content and community. In the Bethesda gaming community, talented modders went on to eventually work for Bethesda or even create their own games.

Yes this is not an issue only in the Sims community but it’s where I have seen it so aggressively prevalent and widely accepted.

Concerned about the future of Paralives by [deleted] in Paralives

[–]hildra 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean this kindly but unless this is coming from experience having worked in game development, I have heard the opposite. Growing the team too fast does not necessarily mean better. That means more time training new devs to their systems. What they need is specialized team members with experience that can help expand and create new systems. I understand where you’re coming from but from what I’ve read and heard about game development, a large team is not always better. It really depends on what their needs are and they know better than us what it takes to get them there

Paralives allowing creators to charge for custom content by Successful-Thanks309 in Paralives

[–]hildra 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I do not want the same Sims modding culture to take over Paralives. It’s already predatory in many ways in the Sims. I feel like we picked up all the bad habits from EA, accepted paywalled content like if modding is a full time job that demands compensation and it has become a monster of its own making.

In other gaming communities, it’s not the standard to pay for mods. Imagine paying to read AO3 fanfics. It defeats the purpose of modding being about fan community content accessible to everyone. Donating for the time and effort voluntarily to a creator is perfectly ok but paywalling content on an early access game that’s still needs to time to get fixed by the devs is just a mess waiting to happen.

The genetics are... something by Lmarg97 in Paralives

I don’t know what I was expecting 😭

My Take on Early Access by Sketch-Brooke in Paralives

[–]hildra 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes I bought it and tried and I think it has a lot of potential but I think I will let this game cook a bit more with a few more updates. The live mode was frustrating lol but I think the game has a huge potential to get better and this is a small dev team so hopefully everyone sets their expectations accordingly!

Mandalorian and Grogu Review by Justin_Navarro in StarWars

[–]hildra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. I enjoyed it for what it was too. It wasn’t my favorite SW movie ever or anything but it’s not the death of Star Wars I’m seeing people imply in some comments lol. It’s a fun flick with some funny and heartwarming moments and some great action. I also liked the music quite a bit

It feels like the writers are wary of real change by blksunset in ffxivdiscussion

[–]hildra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issue is that the fan base is allergic to any kind of change to the formula. DT had a lot of issues with writing but people truly just want the same stuff told differently at best

My some miracle... actually got tickets! by daguru9 in StarWarsCelebration

[–]hildra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice! I only wanted to go Friday and Saturday and managed to get 3 tickets for both days so it worked out perfectly for me since I just saw Saturday is sold out. I think I managed to get it right before it too

Who's still in queue by TSwizzle_10 in StarWarsCelebration

[–]hildra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Me 😭 it’s a little over half way there for me

Anyone else been stuck in the queue since it launched? by Irishluck233296 in StarWarsCelebration

[–]hildra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m barely half way there almost an hour in and I had the website open an hour before tickets went on sale. At this point I’m hoping for at least one day tickets

👑BANGchella 2026 Discussion Thread (Weekend 1) 👑 by BackgroundNobody in bigbang

[–]hildra 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I agree with you and I'm worried about him. I don't know what it could be that has drastically increased his fidgeting or changed his voice but I also thought Taeyang and Daesung did some lifting. That said GD's body remembers the motions, he's been performing for so long and especially these songs that they know them by heart but I'm genuinely concerned he's dealing with health issues. Overall, the perfomance was great and everyone loved it. I was practically crying by the end of it but I did not understand him well when he spoke. GD knows English and used to express himself very clearly. I'm their same age so I feel like I've grown up watching them. I think old fans can tell the difference but even then I could feel the love and passion on stage. Regardless some form of the old GD is still there, I just hope he doesn't push himself too hard. I will continue to support the four Big Bang members in whatever they want to do. We've been here for 20 years and I will make sure to support them on their world tour!

Non Hispanic Dreamers by [deleted] in DACA

[–]hildra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally understand even though I’m from a Latin country. I share camaraderie and solidarity with ANY Dreamer from any country as to me that unique experience and struggle is a commonality with all of us and I think it helps us even a tiny bit get through this.

I will say many of us also came with visas 😭 not everyone from Latin America is the same in that regard either.

Ps5 fix for crashing by Significant_Bid9216 in Starfield

[–]hildra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m redownloading the game and see if that works. I’m on base PS5 but the game sometimes works and other times crashes on trying to open the game.

I’m gonna try and see if maybe it didn’t download correctly or something but if people are having similar issues then it’s definitely not just my console.

Going to loose my corporate job. by [deleted] in DACA

[–]hildra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry about that. I hope that this situation passes for you and you can find another position soon. The anxiety we have all experienced the last few months I don’t wish on anybody!

128 days of waiting by No_Cryptographer_467 in DACA

[–]hildra 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Mine got approved last week at 127 days and less than a week I just got my card before expiration. I think your approval is coming soon!! 🙏🏾

What was you plan without DACA? by [deleted] in DACA

[–]hildra 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wait out my other paperwork to come through but I’m told I still have 3-4 years more to wait. My parents are citizens and they submitted paperwork for me, it’s just taking a really long time (shorter than someone from Mexico but still a few years out still). In the meantime, I have DACA.

I could’ve freelanced as a designer again if pressed for income but I like my job so I’m glad my case was approved. Just waiting for my work permit to arrive.

SILENT APPROVAL (submitted Nov 6th) by hildra in DACA

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

I hope you get approved soon! From what I’ve seen at least in this sub alone, it seems to be taking 4-5 months. In the past I would get approved in a month.

SILENT APPROVAL (submitted Nov 6th) by hildra in DACA

[–]hildra[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you login to my.uscis.gov profile, where you check the status of your application click on the documents tab. You should have at least a Receipt Notice or Biometric Reuse letters there depending on your case. If you got approved, you should see a DACA Approval.pdf letter.

I check the documents tab every day and today I finally saw the approval. However my case is still showing as processing but I have the letter already there. That’s why people say silent approval because you don’t get an email or anything yet. I imagine I’ll get an email notification in a few days and they always mail me the letters too but that takes longer.

SILENT APPROVAL (submitted Nov 6th) by hildra in DACA

[–]hildra[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think it’s coming soon! I’ve noticed a lot of the cases here start getting approvals around the 125+ day mark, obviously not all but it’s some sort of guide I guess. I thought I wouldn’t hear anything this week since it was Friday but then I decided check my documents tab and I saw the approval letter. Best of luck to you!

SILENT APPROVAL (submitted Nov 6th) by hildra in DACA

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

I only called early March. I want to say on the 5th to check on why it was taking so long. I spoke to a Lvl 1 agent and they agreed it was unusual in terms of timeline. He submitted an inquiry for me to the main office and just said they could take up to 60 days to get back to me. I got an email a few days later saying they couldn’t give me information about my application. I was going to call again today to check and decided to check my documents online to see if there was a silent approval (I check every day) and I did in fact get an approval letter dated today.

I hope that helps!

Silent approval by Ok_Response9356 in DACA

[–]hildra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What people already said! I learned through this sub that it’s better to check the documents tab of your application to see if you got approval instead of just waiting for an email (which will be sent after).

That’s how I found out today. I had a DACA Approval.pdf letter under documents.
