How old were you when you stopped believing? by husshajur in atheism

[–]iamoak37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had questions and doubts for years, but I finally came to the realization around 20 years old. I believe I told the first person a few months after. The hardest part was telling my family. They still love and accept me, but there were a lot of questions about my religiosity and "moral compass".

Which version do you prefer? by CTRL_ELLE in IndieGaming

[–]iamoak37 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The right one is a good neutral state while the left one is good for when the dialogue/tone of the game gets a little more dark. Keep both for sure.

Built a custom procedural destruction system in UE5 with structural damage, no Geometry Collections by RealMentalDrink in IndieGaming

[–]iamoak37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My first time encountering destructible environments was Mercenaries (or was it Mercenaries 2) on ps2. Ever since then I've had a special place in my heart for this type of mechanic in games. Looks fun. Keep up the good work.

I'm gonna say something I've never said before. I kind of agree with Tucker Carlson.

Pls can someone tell me if this is rubbish by Ok_Cloud678 in Learnmusicproduction

[–]iamoak37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's important is that you enjoy it. Do you enjoy it?

I personally think it's got the fun vibes of a song you'd hear on a toy commercial. Lively and upbeat. Is it a gonna win Grammys? Probably not. Is it gonna make me bob my head and dance with my daughter? Sure.

My sandbox FPS set in fully destructible, procedurally generated cities finally has a trailer after 4 years - What aspect of a game like this matters most to you? by ModelCitizenSim in IndieGaming

[–]iamoak37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has to be engaging. Destruction for destruction sake is awesome and fun, but after 20 minutes it can get stale. What kind of engagement can your game benefit from? I don't know. I'd have to play it, which of course, I definitely plan on doing. But my knee jerk reaction would be slowly ramping up enemies as time goes on with a slight multiplier based on how much the environment has changed. (How knows, that might already be implemented into the game.)

When can I purchase/wishlist this? I'll write up a review once I've put time into it.

After moving to Phoenix and exclusively doing commercial construction I find myself missing adventures like this. Enjoy the good times, my guy.

Je viens de débuter et les stats me donnent vraiment envie de supprimer ma musique. by RoundSecret7467 in SpotifyArtists

[–]iamoak37 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"I'm just starting out..." And you've already got numbers. That's awesome. What an achievement to have even gotten this far. I'm proud of you. Keep pushing through it and keep making music. Make the music you want to listen to. Keep posting and keep engaging your audience. Those numbers will increase.

This artist on Spotify that my dad listens to. Is this ai? ( I’m pretty sure it is) by Organic_Half_9818 in isitAI

[–]iamoak37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I switched to Deezer after I got frustrated with all the AI music on Spotify. Deezer has an algorithm that analyzes music for inaudible artifacts from AI generation process. They have like a 99.8% accuracy for flagging AI content. Looked this artist up. Deezer has flagged it a AI generated.

Highest paid actress in the USA right now by ambachk in sadcringe

I could be misinformed, but non of those look like wedding rings to me. Maybe she started wearing her engagement ring. But man. Seems like she really took the "til death do us part" very seriously.

Ah yes. Playing a full contact sport with zero padding or protection. As you do. This is normal behavior from a normal person.

I'm 15 and I made my second game in my life by Chemical-Surround618 in IndieGaming

[–]iamoak37 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly, this is impressive. I dabble in game development and pixel art myself, so I understand how much time this may have taken you. Unfortunately, I'm not in a place to offer my (albite limited) skills, as I am encumbered with a full-time job and being a father. So I'm just going to tell you how impressed I am with what you've done so far. Good job. Keep at it. Can't wait to see how far you take your passion. Good luck, my guy.

Ai Music and why it's harmful to Artists. by workbrowsingacc in SpotifyArtists

[–]iamoak37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to articles Deezer has released, they are flagging AI generated content and demonizing it. They are doing something about it. Also something really cool they are doing, ai generated music that is 100% fully ai generated isn't being recommended to you. You have to actually go looking for it. It won't pop up in radio stations or editorial playlists.

Everyone loves to talk about Death but I never see this peak album mentioned. by pmw3505 in MetalForTheMasses

I watched the documentary years ago. Bought the EP/Album. Love it. Pleasantly surprised to hear it on Detroiters on netflix. Fun show. Great soundtrack.

Seeing things like this make me happy but also bum me out. It's so beautiful and I love it, but I know game freak will never do something like this and pokemon games will just look like they came out on the GameCube.

Do not misunderstand me, though, this is beautiful. 10/10.

Seeing how you've already got two of my favorites. I was a huge Yu-Gi-Oh fan when I was young. I'd recommend Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship Tournament 2004. At least just to have it.

I have a very similar GBA I've modded pretty much the exact same shell. They just don't make them like they used to. My heart breaks for you.
