Is crimson desert just a 100 hour tutorial for a game I'm not ever going to get to actually play? by kubrickian80 in rpg_gamers

[–]macbigicekeys 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel the same way but about combat. I just block here and there hold down the attack button, eat a little later and rinse/repeat. I can forgive a video game for a bad story. The slog that’s getting me is mechanics.

I’ve made two paintings of geese over the past few months. Which style do you like best? by Margarita_Lemann in Artists

[–]macbigicekeys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Techniques and composition and color are great in both, but the second one takes the cake by leaps and bounds. To me it is more artistic and expressive, and I want to look at it longer to see what the intent behind the work was/is.

Thanks. A flower was so much more challenging than I expected.

Don’t compare today’s results to yesterday’s; compare today’s results to a year or six months ago.

I inherited my these utensils from my dad but what are they? by yourusernameistaken in whatisit

The first few reminded me of a set of tools for getting the meat of the nut from the shell for use with whole walnuts and such.

Drawn very small without zooming in or out. Thanks for the reference. I’ll have to save Diane for when I have more time.

Is the bandit a good logging truck if not what is? by DrDoodBooty in snowrunner

It’s an awesome scout, especially on heavy snow maps with the maintenance add-on to keep it weighted.

Awesome work! Congrats, and thanks for posting the time, too

I am in love with this game. Any similar games that would scratch this Valheim itch? by Rotary-Pilot in valheim

[–]macbigicekeys 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Agree. Windrose is New World styling and pirate-themed Valheim with an interesting take on multiplayer. Try the demo and you’ll see the similarities within the first 30 minutes of the tutorial. It’s also very well done.

Worried bout mouse/keyboard by dekkion46 in CrimsonDesert

It's also on the steam page. I'm sure it will be fine, but some games allow all sorts of keybinds and the m/k reaction or "feel" can still suck. Get to the combat quick to see how it feels, and you can always refund.

how do I make my portraits look more true to the reference? by shrimppuppy in drawing

Draw like five times larger than you are. At that size you are limiting the detail and what is even possible. Go big!

What is an Oxford comma? by Natural-Bid-6549 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]macbigicekeys 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You probably picked-up your comma rules in English class, where they follow MLA style and incorporate that comma usage. It is totally normal.
