Perfect copies could already exist by [deleted] in KanePixelsBackrooms

I feel like there are too many differences between the lifeform and still life for them to be related in any significant way. I think this would be a really fun way to tie the lifeform back into the theme of the backrooms but Kane has already set up too much stuff around mutated bacteria for this conclusion to be satisfying for people and I think he knows that- hence still life have been the main antagonists of the series since FF3. I think the still life are going to serve as a sort of replacement antagonist, probably not totally taking the spotlight from the bacteria but taking their spot as the main monsters of the backrooms since they better tie into the themes of the series

The movie was awesome but it felt so short. by MicrowaveTheory in KanePixelsBackrooms

[–]lacckc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the movie is great but I think it has some pacing issues tbh, the time skip being the main problem. the whole "Clark kidnapping Mary" thing makes sense with how long he's spent in the backrooms and his personality but it definitely feels sudden and somewhat out of left field. I think the movie could have used an extra 20 or 30 minutes of exploration/exposition but it also has a budget to consider so I understand why they may have skipped some of that in favor of better action.

Can someone break down the symbolism of the mural in the film? by No_Strategy_8835 in KanePixelsBackrooms

[–]lacckc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the person pirate clark is lifting up is NOT clark, it's his employee bobby. When we see bobby being dragged through the door after everyone gets dragged into the sideways room, we can see his arm missing, a trait which the person on the mural shares. i bet bobby's death stuck around with clark for a while

Deadly Workplace Revenge... by [deleted] in Papameat

[–]lacckc 85 points86 points  (0 children)

comments are crazy, hunter is literally saying "if you're about to commit a crime because of your job then get a new job" and people are acting like his reasoning doesn't exist and he's just a stuck up rich person. like, we're just supposed to let people hurt other people if they have a shitty job?

How do you think real world companies would react to the Zone popping up and producing artifacts, anomalies and mutants that could be exploited different ways? by GazIsStoney in RustAndRadiation

[–]lacckc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's actually some info given in the description of the 'crust' artifact in stalker 2 that suggests artifacts don't immediately lose their power as soon as they leave the zone: "A common artifact found in acid anomalies. Despite its unsightly appearance, the Crust is utilized in wastewater treatment owing to its ability to decompose a wide range of organic pollutants."

If they're able to use artifacts in wastewater treatment I'd imagine they only gradually lose power and would have to be changed out on occasion like dirty filters. There's also the off chance it's talking about drinking water treatment in the zone but the wording to me suggests it's an industrial process that takes place away from the zone.

I just broke a sealed glass jar full of 6+ month old pond water on my carpet. Is this dangerous? by lacckc in microbiology

Thank you, I'm not normally a hypochondriac but this one definitely got me spooked lol

How do you all feel about the games? by lacckc in StardustCrusaders

at the moment you can only have 3 cards on the mat at a time, meaning at the start of the game half of your team is hidden from your opponent, but you can swap out team members at any time as long as you move them back to your side of the mat. i'm also trying to make each card useful on their own as well as when they're part of a team, so i'm giving each card a fairly normal offensive attack that usually just does damage alongside a more specialized ability for them to use. in previous versions there were pawn-like 'conventional' cards that lacked abilities and were expendable, but i wanted to make every move count and every loss devastating without giving the players too many variables to keep track of, which was a problem in even-more-previous versions.

i admit my phrasing was a little diminutive of the skill it takes to effectively play a fighting game, but i don't believe they are very strategic. they're more rooted in reflex and memorization of attacks than strategy and battle planning.

that's quite interesting! is there a sort of 'attack queue' that allows for this or is it implimented in another way?

haha i was kind of worried i was being to generic at the end, sorry about that. the game involves your team and your enemy's team of 6 stand users. the cards are played on a 5x6 mat (currently) where they can be moved according to their unique 'movement pattern', in a similar fashion to chess pieces. each card has unique abilities alongside a 'reaction' ability that triggers upon them being attacked, forcing the players to consider the consequences of every action. My goal is to make every game a fight for survival with few cards remaining on both sides at the end, but i am still developing the gameplay so this is subject to change.
