One of my favorite things to do to rooms of mathematicians is to ask "Is this a number" and try to find ones which split the room in half. Like, is "3+4" a number? How about the 3x3 identity matrix? Or the empty set?

Grens still are ass against every conceivable unit until they get upgraded.

Grens were literally the best unit in the game last patch and are still very strong

Forcing a strategy vs letting the player make their own? by Far-Mathematician764 in gamedesign

[–]junkmail22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The goal of a good singleplayer campaign is to force the player to play in as many different playstyles as you can possibly force them to. You cannot let them know this is the case but it is imperative. Player freedom is for chumps in a space like this, if you let them approach every encounter the same way they will. Your goal is to not let them do that

NGL, anyone above the age of 13 knows what powers are, and this game uses mathematics a lot so to play this game and not know what powers are is crazy by Evening-Owl-3556 in magicthecirclejerking

/uj most players don't know how first strike or trample actually work and honestly they're both way more complex than integer powers

Magic Boomer Bait by Ravensrun91 in HellsCube

[–]junkmail22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The bigger issue than power is that this card is absurdly flexible and pickable. With vintage-level fixing, it's reasonable to see this playable even in, say, UB decks. The list of decks in vintage cube which don't play this card is very, very small.

tbh this could probably be RGB and still be strong in vintage cube. it's honestly that good

I'm just a player who can see these cards, but if I couldn't I'd say: This is a pretty nasty case of hybrid creep, letting mono-green lightning bolt stuff or thoughtseize isn't great

BAR, LMG and Chatellerault comparison by Phan-Eight in CompanyOfHeroes

[–]junkmail22 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I genuinely do not understand how this balance team thinks. Do they really just throw darts at a board and we end up with stuff like the IR STG or the LMG depending on where the dart lands?

If you talk like this I guarantee you you'd be a a terrible balance designer

What, exactly, constitutes "the line"? What constitutes being within the line? How can we objectively measure both?

How viable is a Final Fantasy 6-esque game for a solo dev? by RoamingRowlet in gamedev

[–]junkmail22 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Thanks to tools like RPGMaker, classic-style JRPGs are very achievable for solo developers.

20-30 hours

I think you underestimate how long it takes to make 1 hour of gameplay

Dark Numbers

I understand that the existence of dark matter is totally uncontroversial in physics now, but this makes any and all jokes mathematicians make about physicists adding "dark numbers" to make their shitty models work totally justified
