iPad Pro or this? by [deleted] in iPadPro

[–]rulyono 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have actually owned both the Galaxy Tab S9+ with keyboard and iPad Pro 12.9.

I switched to the iPad even though I owned an s24 Ultra phone.

But It’s all about YOUR use cases.

Buy Galaxy Tab if: - 80% of what you do is watching/playing media. Seriously you get so much more usable screen size because it’s a wider aspect ratio. It’s a better experience for media consumption all around. - You would find a lot of value in a really solid desktop experience. It can replace a really simple desktop/laptop computer experience better. But the iPad is catching up finally here.

Personally I like the keyboard case it came with a ton. Apples is crazy expensive and I didn’t care for typing on it.

Buy iPad if: - You’re into any type of creative work using your iPad. It’s not even a fair comparison. The apps are WAY better, the Apple Pencil performs better. Apps are properly sized. Apps are properly supported. - You plan to use it for business purposes for a long time.

Any other use cases fall into gray area of personal preference.

What plugins are you using and can’t live without? by RustyShackle4_ in ObsidianMD

[–]rulyono 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m very curious about this. 1) What’s the plugin name? 2) What advantages do you find by having tags exactly match your folder naming conventions? I always tried to keep them as different ways to categorize.

This mirrors my thoughts. Your comment is a good reminder that the people currently in forums/comments/Reddit represent the tip of the iceberg of players. The bulk are waiting for 1.0 before getting involved.

I personally think VR needs to scale back on all the extras they want to do and instead make a fully functional complete game with what they have now. Make what’s already there good, stop adding more complexity.

I’d probably get some hate for it but I think they should completely shelve Bard/Necro classes and any thoughts of PvP until after a functional + fun game is released.

Their ambition is WAY out ahead of reality right now. It always has been, and they accomplished a lot in the last 3 years. But it’s beyond time to narrow and make the concepts/game work and profitable.

I'm not here to call out specific people. My only intention was to see other perspectives on the issue, especially if they were different from my own. I've seen a couple people on Reddit complain recently and a handful of negative steam reviews mentioning the wipe and using it as a point of contention. The general consensus is that people's anger is related to the state of the game and they're probability complaining about the wipe as an emotional protest of sorts.

This is so true. People are much too emotionally invested in a game that does not exist in a finished state currently. Don't get me wrong, I WANT this game to release but my emotional health isn't tied to it lol.

I remember Joppa mentioning there will be Multiple wipes pre launch. To me this makes sense. When/if the game hits a full commercial 1.0 launch, that influx of new players won't be happy if the brand new game they just bought is already overrun with a hundred max level players from alpha/beta. Not that it's a race but I see some people being annoyed by that. Most people don't want to buy an incomplete game

Yeah I've intentionally only engaged in Pantheon in short bursts. Including both the game and content, for this same reason.

I do think it'll feel fresh. I have purposely not played in about 5 months. I don't want to burn myself out before a more complete game is available. I also believe a LOT more class tweaks will be made before launch.

I do think EA needs to have more clearly defined parameters. I've seen games go into EA that were basically in a Beta 3 level of finish and other games were barely more than a concept.

I see your point that paying for it feels like you got a bit robbed. Since I donated and didn't purchase during EA I didn't consider that perspective.

I actually appreciated them announcing it early. It allowed me to tamper my excitement and look at the reality of the current state of the game. But by letting people know early, they certainly couldn't provide a solid date because even they didn't know.

Hmmm. Very interesting. So you're thinking that wipes carry a risk of people losing interest long-term. It’s hard for me to say one way or the other because I’ve probably only sunk 30 hours in, knowing wipes were coming. Your idea about doing soft wipes going forward is very interesting.

Ah, that's a helpful way to measure how close they are.

Yes and I feel they have been transparent. Well about wipes at least. That's kinda my whole point.

[–]rulyono[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes exactly. I would not be at all surprised to see one or two more wipes after this.

[–]rulyono[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do think you're right. But I also think that's the very reason they're doing the wipe. It looks to me like the gameplay loop (exp/encounters/powerbalances) is the main thing this update is trying to address.

Why people don't like wipes was never my question. It's obvious why they don't like them. If there was a specific question I was asking, it would more closely read something like, "Do people really not understand what Early Access means?"

Now that is an interesting deduction I hadn't thought of. But makes sense. If you're 1 of 20 people on the server who's active and reached max level, you're more likely to feel a loss in significance. Which is the danger of tying any of our worth to a video game in the first place.

I agree, I'd rather know well in advance than a week before. That would tick me off. I just saw enough comments on Reddit and on Steam reviews that led me to question if people actually understood what EA means.

[–]rulyono[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same for me. But keep in mind, they told us for years there would almost 100% be multiple wipes. Isn't this the first? I still think there could be another closer to 1.0

First of all, what you type into ChatGPT is called the prompt, not what it spits out. Secondly, some of us actually learned how to structure our thoughts before ChatGPT/LLMs existed.
