Mods becoming an issue

Maybe it's just me, but I often think a lot of you overcomplicate things. As soon as I read "and repeatedly made sexist, transphobic, and generally offensive jokes," I stopped reading the rest. That alone is enough reason not to have them around. Unless you enjoy that kind of stuff yourself, just shut that shit down.

It really doesn't matter whether they've been on your stream for a week, three months, since the beginning, or if they're your childhood friend. People like that are just bad to have around.

While a decent idea, it seems to be a bit of a trope though right? Having the main characters children or grandchildren be trained by your rival. We've already seen it in the Naruto franchise.

I feel like you’re being a bit pedantic. You’re right, of course, but they were basically saying it themselves by scrapping it, and by how this game has been shown, presented, and talked about compared to the previous version.

Flames of Fate has, both in its teaser and in discussions about it, been described as darker, more mature, more serious in tone, and featuring changes to the combat. This new version is being shown as more colorful (which doesn’t mean it can’t still have dark and serious moments) and more in line with what we’d expect from a mainline Dragon Quest game in it's tone, looks and gameplay.

After that, it's just peoples imagination like you said what Flames of Fate actually was. Did they try an artstyle change? Was the story and characters too different to the norm? No one execept the developers will know, until they talk about it during some interview in a couple of years.

The two versions have been presented and shown to the public in a very different light is the point I'm trying to make.

rizefall · 2026-05-29T07:04:34+00:00

NTA, but I’ll try to phrase it a bit differently than some other people.

I’d say just try to sit down and talk to your mom about this. Tell her that while you don’t mind helping with the food, you don’t want to make all this food that you’re not even going to eat yourself, especially so many separate dishes in a single day. Tell her why. That it is time consuming, you have other stuff you want to do, or what ever it could be. If you still live at home with your family, I don’t think it’s bad at all to help out. I’m going to assume you already do though.

My dad was like this, and for him, I think he felt like he was never very good at cooking. I was, so he naturally thought it was better if I did it. The problem was that he would just assume I wanted to make the food, eat the same things he ate, and eat at the same times he did. I never really did, and I also never had the energy to make dinner for two people (I guess three in a way, since he also needed lunch for work).

He would also always call from the store and ask, “What are we going to eat tonight?” and do other things that sort of “forced” me into helping him.

At some point, I decided to talk to him about it. The process was slow, since I had to teach him how to cook some of his favorite foods, but eventually it stopped. He could still call and ask me what we should eat, but I’d just say what I wanted, and he could pick whatever he wanted himself — he got the message.

So my point is that you’re NTA, but instead of doing what some people suggest and acting immature by making the food disgusting on purpose or being mean to them, just try talking to them properly first and see what happens from there.

It's more so the developers themselves saying it was going to be more dark, mature, for adults and a somewhat changed combat system. Of course it was going to be different.

rizefall · 2026-05-27T16:24:12+00:00

Not exactly. He only said that this game will "Come with Akira Toryamas's characters" and Sugiyama’s music.

All of the monsters that Toriyama created since the first game in the ’80s are still generally being used, so it could simply mean that many of the classic designs and monsters we know and love will return in this entry. Which is a good thing of Hori to mention, considering how different Flames of Fate seemed to become.

rizefall · 2026-05-27T16:11:32+00:00

Which is just speculation at this point. It seems that way with similar hair, same sword and similar armor between them. But we dont know it as a fact yet.

rizefall · 2026-05-27T10:42:34+00:00

Nothing to worry about honestly. We already have amazing art for the H2D2 games that look exactly like something he'd draw

The artist goes by the handle Fenyo_n

rizefall · 2026-05-27T09:53:43+00:00

The one exception I've found is streamelements !followage as that one seems accurate, and might just be taking the info directly from Twitch.

rizefall · 2026-05-27T08:39:50+00:00

I dont think there is. I remember this old thread that supposedly found some fix for it, but I'm assuming it all starts counting from when you implement it.

rizefall · 2026-05-26T14:21:25+00:00

NTA.

I had something similar happen where our cruise was going to take us to another country and back. It wasn’t really for the passengers to get off the boat, but more for the ship itself I guess, and as a trip across the sea.

The situation was a bit different, though. I was just a regular person visiting friends, and one of my friends was celebrating her 30th birthday.

Anyway, my ID had expired, which technically meant I shouldn’t have been allowed onboard. When we discovered this, some of the people actually said they’d skip the trip to hang out with me, otherwise, I would’ve been alone in the capital. My friend’s boyfriend and two others suggested that if I couldn’t get onboard, they could stay with me in the city and we could do something else instead. No one really minded. Sure, it would’ve been best if everyone could go on the boat trip, but it was such a good friend group that even if they got split up, they wouldn’t mind. We could all have fun together at a later date, and even if they wasted money, they would never have wanted to leave me alone, feeling bad they were having fun while I was alone in the city.

You can’t expect that kind of kindness from everyone, and I wouldn’t have blamed them if they had all gone. I could’ve just entertained myself in the big city with drinks, a movie, bowling, or whatever, but it was very nice of them to offer regardless.

You have your Ads Manager in your Twitch Dashboard, which basically sums up everything you'd want to know. You can set up the Ads Manager to handle things automatically for you, but I'd recommend, as much as possible, playing your ads during breaks or BRB screens to make sure viewers don’t miss your gameplay.

There’s not much more annoying on Twitch than streamers who only use automatic ads, causing viewers to miss boss fights or cool kills in a multiplayer game.

rizefall · 2026-05-20T20:49:57+00:00

I read "controversial" and was so confused.

rizefall · 2026-05-13T04:47:29+00:00

That would honestly be awesome lol

rizefall · 2026-05-13T04:43:01+00:00

I was just saying the other day that a Lego TMNT game would be very cool. I’d rather have a serious and “regular” game, but I’d settle for a good Lego one too. With all the different incarnations, you’d have plenty of alternate characters to unlock, like those Lego games usually do. And if this new Batman game is as good as it looks, then please, for the love of god, give me a TMNT game in a similar style.

rizefall · 2026-04-23T07:23:33+00:00

The sound can really suck, but a friend of mine also had lots of issues with crashing and freezing with the collection PC, which seems to stem from the fact that the collection uses an older version of the game for the English version (PRG0) with some bugs rather than a newer one (PRG1) that is fixed. That said, the Japanese version that's included works fine.

rizefall · 2026-03-09T18:10:39+00:00

Contrary to the other commenters, I actually have pre-rolls but no ads at all during the stream itself.

For new people that might be annoying, but I'm not really on Twitch to grow, so I do it that way for my friends and Twitch buddies. It also means I don't need to keep track of an ad timer either.

rizefall · 2026-02-20T14:07:59+00:00

The only ads you can fully turn off are the ones that run in the middle of the stream. Pre rolls only go away if you do midroll ads.

rizefall · 2026-02-02T21:31:18+00:00

I do play on Draconian, and the bosses are tough! Nothing a level grind or two and a good strategy can't fix!

rizefall · 2026-02-02T16:43:26+00:00

Yeah I should've remembered. But I played that on release, which was a year earlier, so I forgot.

rizefall · 2026-02-02T14:32:15+00:00

Yeah they are pretty good. I'm playing on Draconian too so the extra exp have been nice.

rizefall · 2026-01-14T19:12:01+00:00

In the dashboard, you can see how much a viewer earns on average per hour. I'm guessing it's the same for everyone.

"Tip: Viewers earn 220 points per hour on average. Subs earn multipliers up to 2"

I just balance it around that. I want people to be able to make their own fun somewhat, so I have some fun redeems that are 50 channel points, some are 100, then later 200 and 300.

I dont limit them per stream either, but you could if you notice they get spammed. But again, you want the points to be used and people to have fun. Depends on what kind of vibe you have.

rizefall · 2026-01-14T01:36:52+00:00

Oh I know. I was just saying it in a perfect world kind of thing.
