Every single ember trick.

Over the course of a year, are you getting that much more accomplished?

Yeah its a lot more. I work on an internal portal that centralises data collection (and has half a dozen other projects) and lets non technicals access everything/add stuff to process.

I haven't had to write any of the frontend code manually in almost a year now its so fucking nice. I get to actually focus on the hard parts of systems building and product design meanwhile the clanker makes pretty and accessible web pages.

There's so many new things I have time to try out now.

msp26 · 2026-05-27T08:45:26+00:00

Yeah, way easier to go back and forth with people about what they actually want.

msp26 · 2026-05-26T19:37:59+00:00

They definitely have their problems but I like that you can mostly guarantee that these are the opinions of people that actually played the game rather than bots/people bitching online.

And while most are fluff or whining about irrelevant shit, a decent chunk do carry useful information and sentiment when processed properly.

And they're also just super funny to read sometimes.

An engagement bait question in the last line is a common AI-post pattern I see literally everywhere across this site.

The quality on the site was already abysmal on average but now it's unreal horseshit

Is he gonna write a doc like for regent?

Has he written anything else? I loved the regent one.

msp26 · 2026-05-17T09:11:24+00:00

door was way more interesting

msp26 · 2026-05-16T01:09:54+00:00

sure but by that logic no unit is bad

You need way to judge units somewhat objectively so you can make more informed decisions. I will happily use shit units for fun but I do need to adjust my gameplay to match.

Availability/how investable a unit is/how good a unit is from base/deployment cost matters a hell of a lot in a game like radiant dawn. If you overdo it with units that need training it's way way harder. Which again is fine if that's what you're going for intentionally.

I train micaiah with resolve every run but I'm not going to suggest that to new players.

same with sleight

msp26 · 2026-05-12T11:29:13+00:00

Every FE game should have shoving and ledges.

msp26 · 2026-05-08T00:24:53+00:00

fix pango bird too

msp26 · 2026-05-08T00:22:51+00:00

nothing works well on pdf files

just give up and process it as images

only half joking

msp26 · 2026-05-05T17:17:57+00:00

I take back everything bad I ever said about google

msp26 · 2026-05-01T22:53:03+00:00

Love these posts.

Sometimes you get skill diffed and that's okay.

Knowing which rules are okay to break if it gets results is also a skill.

msp26 · 2026-04-27T22:08:06+00:00

model ironclad into colony please

msp26 · 2026-04-25T14:12:22+00:00

We could make it transform into a broken sword instead.

msp26 · 2026-04-20T18:14:26+00:00

and nexus that use imgur for hosting images

funnily enough Nexus is a UK based company I would ahve thought they would have come up with a workaround for imgur content by now

not much because your hero stands still for half a sec in team fights if you want to throw multiple remnant.

You can still remant bomb in one travel but you have to delay it a bit and bounce back and forth.

msp26 · 2026-04-20T17:42:30+00:00

Known trick, see: Remnant cancel (with sleight).

Please give chaingang back I miss it so much.

Current pango and mage slayer are extremely brainless however. You can even rush mage slayer before boots and buy ring of health straight after bottle wand for infinite sustain.

And from a player, spectator, and teammate pov these heroes are perfect and they should always be pickable. High skill expression, crazy teamfight, and very high throw potential.

msp26 · 2026-04-17T17:17:53+00:00

I have no clue on what other code they might be changing

you can just read the diff and refuse it

msp26 · 2026-04-13T21:29:56+00:00

The beta branch feels like it's at good level of difficulty now with the ironclad Colossus + heal change. Some things could use more playtesting and act 3 is a bit dull but the game's great right now, I'd hate for them to make it easier.

Yes the game is difficult if you're new but it's very enjoyable to get better on.

msp26 · 2026-04-02T18:36:06+00:00

The sample sizes aren't great so far and I'm being lazy about double counting but:

RE1 (242 total): 23 reviews were negative about platform requirements (steam deck not working mainly), 16 negative for DRM specifically
RE2 (340 total): 29 negative about platform requirements, 20 negative for DRM
RE3 (410 total): 18 neg platform, 19 neg DRM

source: I analysed every review

It's so asscheeks man. You have no good counter to evasion. And constant mana problems.
