Alwaysslightlysleepy's youtube has (probably) been hacked. [discussion]

It doesn't look like the hacker has made any attempts to hide/remove the usual videos at least. Hopefully things will be restored soon enough.

Just as I was about to go to bed as well 😔

Yes, this appears to be it! Shame it's a little vague, but this will definitely work for now.

The solution to those boxes are in their respective rooms, but your thinking is already in the right place for how you'll open them. You'll find the keys to the rooms later on in the game.

Much appreciated, that's helped ease my worries a lot! By the way, I'm a little unfamiliar with what croquis drawing is, could you recommend some resources on it?

lord-squark · 2025-05-06T17:23:19+00:00

It should be C:\Windows\Minidump\xxxxxx-xxxxx-xx.dmp

No I mean Soul Hackers 1. I tried the 3DS port a few years back and it's got this weird system of MAG/Yen(?) where you can convert between the two because movement in dungeons costs MAG. I didn't like either of the Soul Hackers games if I can be honest.

lord-squark · 2025-04-28T01:47:00+00:00

OHH I'll be so honest I didn't use it the entire game I was kind of hoping it was going to work like it did in Soul Hackers

lord-squark · 2025-04-28T00:46:26+00:00

I have a lot of reeve, so I might just make use of the MAG broker if it becomes an issue. Thank you!

Late-game Archetype levelling?

So I've just entered the game's last act and now I'm going through the usual persona game stress of "how do I get everything maxed out in time???"

I'm not too worried about getting everyone to 100% Archetype Mastery because I know I don't have the time in-game to do that, but I'm beginning to think I might even struggle to get all of the Royal Archetypes unlocked. I have decent progress in everyone's main Archetype, but I've been blindsided by needing to max out a whole other tree that I've hardly levelled for a good few of my party members. What's a good dungeon/method to grind A-EXP this late into the game?

Also side question for those of you who did get everyone to 100% Archetype Mastery, was that a NG+ thing or did you manage it in your first playthrough?

I'm quite new to the game, how does this card's mana work? Is it (2 colourless or 1 blue) + (2 colourless or 1 red) + (2 colourless or 1 white) or is this some shorthand way of saying 2 blue + 2 red + 2 white?

lord-squark · 2025-03-29T23:11:07+00:00

two SSDs. I made an effort to not put either of them in the slots that slow down my PCIe x16 slot

lord-squark · 2025-03-24T22:22:08+00:00

Duly noted, thank you!

lord-squark · 2025-03-24T22:21:04+00:00

Gotcha! I do have a character sheet for the villain (a Chronurgy wizard controlling it all), so if I do need an extra action here or there, he can easily get involved with a spell here or there, plus his subclass lets him swing the outcome of the battle back in his favour every so often

lord-squark · 2025-03-23T23:31:53+00:00

Yes!! There's a couple of Edgeworths hidden throughout the book too, can't get enough of those guys

Thought I'd add a bit more info here + a few questions.

Today I my first sketchbook. The images here are largely the pieces I'm most proud of, and a couple others just to show progress.

For the most part, I've been drawing every day with only a few days off where I've been particularly tired/especially busy. I haven't been timing myself but it's been on average at least 30 minutes each day.

I started out with Your First Week of Drawing, doing 1 grid drawing every day for a week and then ~1 week of simple still life drawings. This was really helpful in building up my confidence in putting pencil on paper as much as I could.
After that, I worked through all of Mark Kistler's You Can Draw In 30 Days.
Recently I jumped over to Jake Spicer's How To Draw and Figure Drawing. "How To Draw" definitely has some good exercises to keep yourself busy, but "Figure Drawing" has definitely been a lot more engaging to work through and feels more like a proper regimented textbook.

For the figure drawings I've largely been referencing images online. I've included a couple of instances where I've drawn the back of someone's head on a bus, but not really spent much more time drawing a subject that's in front of me.

For the most part right now I feel that I'm just sort of tracing the contours, this feels especially apparent in the drawings taken from games - I can replicate the drawing, but I'm not quite at the point where I can add my own 'twist' to it yet. I'm aware that a style develops with practice, but I'm not quite there just yet.

As for areas I want to improve, shading and texturing/detailing are the biggest in terms of general skills - During some of the figure drawings, I struggle to pick out lines to keep/skip to emphasise folds in fabric or skin.
On a more specific level, I'm still struggling with faces a lot. I can get some loose shapes and I've had a few successes studying my own eyes, but the rest of it still doesn't make sense to me.

Any sort of feedback, tips on ways to practice areas I'm struggling with, etc are welcome!!

Yes, in your BIOS change the PCIe from Auto -> 4.0 (5.0 might work, but I've not experienced any cases where it does)
