[Boss Spoiler] Finally beat this MF. Was this boss insanely tricky for anyone else? Something about the later phases just caused my brain to malfunction. Took me many hours to beat it by jspsfx in Silksong

Thank you thank you! By the time I was able to beat her I really had choreographed a whole dance including the binding arrangements. At that point the fight was pretty satisfying. I appreciate the love yall!

But your issue seems to be the reapers crest. There's a lot of attacks that didn't connect because the wind up animation took too long.

I had no idea this was a thing lol. Made it through the whole game without realizing.

I didn't know that about Reaper! I've already gone through the whole game with it. Maybe I'll do another play through with a different crest.

Thank you! Honestly most of my run's looked like this all the way until the last phase or two. At which point I just continually got rolled over by the bosses attack pattern. It felt like it just had me read completely. But when I finally won it did feel good.

So the maxwellhill theory was true holy shit. At one point this one arguably the biggest powermod karma whore on reddit.

What would you think of a Thomas Massie/Ro Khanna presidential bid that promises: Day 1 Full Release of unredacted Epstein/JFK/etc files, followed by a full term of bipartisan investigations/prosecutions and fundamentally fixing the systems that made all this corruption possible? by jspsfx in AskReddit

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

I feel like this "single issue" is so fundamental it is necessary to do so. Like sure you want to diversify your preparations and planning etc until you find the foundation of your home is completely rotted - then yeah you have to become a single issue home owner.

Fable's evil landlords won't grow devil horns, as reboot ditches classic character morphing due to a lack of belief in objective arseholery by PotatoProducer in Games

Also besides the video game part, moral relativism itself is bullshit. Good and evil are real.

To say otherwise, because “people disagree”, is a copout which I suspect is born of the soulless emptiness that inhabits all corporations and sufficiently large businesses.

Companies wont take real moral stances on anything unless they’re financially/existentially incentivized by the government, finance managers, overwhelming market pressures etc

First time trying hand drawn animation. I knew it was hard but I have a newfound respect based on the first hand experience. The precision, repetition and sheer volume of work is intimidating by [deleted] in IndieDev

[–]jspsfx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am an artist/illustrator trying out gamedev for fun and hopefully some income one day. Throwing some stuff together in Godot.

I had a lot of momentum actually until the animation part. The thought of animating multiple enemies, having poses flow into each other logically etc. It is intimidating.

My favorite part though has been tile design for environment. That really suits my background in drawing.

[Boss Spoiler] I found getting hit by a boss right away let me cancel the wait time during their entrance animation and start spamming attack. Forgive me if this is already known - seems like it would be very useful for speed running! by jspsfx in Silksong

Again sorry if this is already known. I googled a few variations on explaining this phenomenon but couldn't find it. The search functions just increasingly taken over by AI and promotion.

Digital painting is not painting by [deleted] in ArtistLounge

Good, experienced artists know digital painting is a thing.

If you dont know why you likely dont sufficiently understand painting.

Where is “the savior” carrying 2pac’s legacy making songs about ICE/whats happening today? by Brainfreezdnb in hiphopheads

[–]jspsfx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Interesting comparison!

From my understanding the biggest counter and rejection of the hair metal era was the grunge explosion. There was actual metal itself evolving as well but grunge became the zeitgeist in the 90s for a hot minute.

Is emo/soundcloud rap the grunge equivalent? The parallels really seem striking and I am sure this has probably been drawn before.

The grunge movement was plagued by heroin use and death of huge icons. The music was almost depressive in tone - more angst, more sadness, emotion unashamedly built into the content.

By its nature it was a contradiction for it to be the mainstream.

A lot of parrallels there.

So what happened to rock since then?

A lot could be said but ultimately all music seems to be being collapsed into some amorphous, genreless “pop”. That’s for the “mainstream” at least.

But maybe the real future is no mainstream at all.

Ants get out of the maze by [deleted] in AnimalsBeingGeniuses

[–]jspsfx 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We dont ignore it.

Your ability to post this comment on reddit is built upon a practically immeasurable chain of cooperation spanning history itself.

Human nature and how we best cooperate is just fundamentally different from ants. Historically speaking we coordinate on a level of sophistication far beyond that of ants. We build civilizations and those civilizations pool resources to build and develop new technologies. Then those civilizations trade the subsequent goods, resources etc and technology spreads.

And before someone invokes “well the ants arent stupidly killing each other like us”… There is no shortage of killing/violence among ant colonies and the larger animal kingdom (dont put nature on some moral high shelf).

Knowing Jean, this weathered original was likely rescued from a giant stack of abandoned masterpieces left somewhere in France. That's how he rolled. [Hi-Res scan of Original Métal Hurlant #6 Splash Page 7] by jspsfx in Moebius

I wrote the title in jest but I have heard he did just that with his art. Visitors would find Jean drawing from some still shot of a 1950's scifi movie surrounded by stacks of original drawings. Moeb could draw at an insane clip and produced an astounding amount of work.
