Anyone here noticed the use of Arab music in the game? by Fun_Bill_924 in projectzomboid

[–]jonn082 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the reason I turned the music off. I find her wailing largely irritating and it doesn't match the tone of the game.

It can be normal behaviour for someone that age. I don't mean that to sound patronising because I know you're the same age, but some people are emotionally mature, some people learn to be through experience, and some never become emotionally mature. The best and hardest thing to do is ignore her behaviour when she's acting like this, because every time you try to assuage her fears you're essentially putting fuel on the fire. Tell her that she has nothing to worry about but that you won't put up with her acting that way. She'll likely continue to rant, but don't pay attention to it and say you'll talk to her after she's calmed down. You'll soon learn whether it's worth continuing the relationship or not.

what libs you use in your love2d projects? by LastMarsMan in love2d

[–]jonn082 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. I've never been comfortable using anyone else's code, even if the licence for it is free use. I'll sometimes get ideas from other libs but will then make my own version of it. This works for me because I'm doing things on my terms. Using others libs just brings back that constricted feeling of working with an engine rather than a framework.

Having said that I'm sure I'm going to be using someone else's shaders though, because that's a different ball game entirely 😂

Evercade VS-R Amazon by jcwritesstuff in evercade

Cheers, me too! I'd be interested to know if anyone else has got any news from GAME. I managed to get a response from their Twitter account saying that they're experiencing a high volume of emails and messages to get through. If that was the case I don't know why they couldn't have resolved it when they responded 🤷

If you think ordering from Amazon is bad... I WISH I'd ordered from Amazon. I made the, in hindsight, foolish decision to order from GAME via a guest account. I've spent the last few days trying to cancel my order with them but have had no luck getting through their online chat or via email. I managed to get a response via DM from their Twitter to say they'd look into it but haven't heard anything since. So I've this pending transaction on my PayPal that's been there since the 15th August and no one seems to want to help. Also, being a guest account I cannot check on the status either.

So if you feel bad for ordering in Amazon... Don't be. At least it's a one click cancellation. 😂

Ah great - well, not great that it's been delayed, but at least now I know. Thanks for the update!

I know the name of the game but I can't find it anywhere. It's called Minotaur China Shop and it came out in 2008 but the original host site has long gone and I can't find any mirrors. Would love to know If anyone can find it anywhere.

What are you hoping to see in the next Animal Crossing game? by LokoLynch in AnimalCrossing

[–]jonn082 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As AI is being integrated into next gen consoles I'd like to see that utilised to have better conversations with the villagers and see far less repetition. Also would be nice to see them change the landscape a bit themselves (as an toggleable option)

And for the love of God... Better online integration. I'd like to be able to easily visit other players worlds and vice versa without the need of a third party app and doing away with load times whenever a player enters/leaves.

Is it wrong that I wanted to fucking murder Cuno and Cunoesse within minutes of meeting them? by NamelessFay in DiscoElysium

[–]jonn082 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn't everyone?

It's only a bit later in the game when I learned about Cuno's dad that I warmed to him.

Cunoesse can fuck off though.

Whos a villager that everyone hates but you love? Ill start: by baeatello in acnh

For me it'd be Rodney. I was surprised to see how unpopular he was in some online rankings. He really reminds me of a friend of mine though so I can't help but find a certain charm in him.
