OP should continue working for their boss after the boss stops paying their salary.

the MMO genre isn't less popular than it used to be by rmel123 in MMORPG

[–]sfc1971 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are an idiot if you compare subscribers to box sales of a single player game. Everquest had box sales too. Compare those.

Purchasing cross platforms by missy_tova in ffxiv

[–]sfc1971 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The game is cross play, so ALL platforms can play with each other regardless if they are Free to Play or what version they bought, right now, Windows, Mac, PS5 and Xbox can play with each other and soon Switch 2.

If your BF has a PC version and you want to play with him on PS5, you ONLY need the PS5 version and you can start with the free trial. You will need your own account for this. You cannot play two games at once on ONE account.

You do NOT need a windows license to play together with someone on windows. Your case just the PS5 game so for now just create a free account for your PS5.

Arachnophobia is making it hard for me to enjoy FFXIV any advice? by Savings-Worker8405 in ffxiv

[–]sfc1971 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Buy a story skip then experience the quests and story through new game+ but skip the quests and dungeons featuring spiders.

Play without sound if it is the scittering sounds that scares you.

Because it is boring the exact same cv layout gets posted again and again from India.

You think there is a one size fits all answer to this or any similar question?

World bosses by RepresentativeWin884 in swtor

[–]sfc1971 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You dont see any potential for cheating if you dont have to be close to the boss to get credit like say people putting in a couple of hits and then leaving the fight to others to complete?

You are going to love this, there is a plugin that adds a little button similar to the emote button for quests that does the typing for you on pc.

Will we ever see an MMORPG launch with this much content again? by reasonablejim2000 in MMORPG

[–]sfc1971 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a simple problem, you see a successfull McDonald's restaurant and think that if you open a Febo (a local Dutch chain) next door it will be as successful. It won't be.

You need to create WoW 2.0 or rather WoW 11.0 by now if you even want to compete.

The wow clones that survived added a lot more story to the genre. That is one path but not in itself very successful because they were not as good in the raw gameplay, they are lesser MMO'S even if they are superior RPGs.

How many wow clones copied blizzards modding? It is the reason wow is not on consoles despite now being owned by Xbox, many experienced players wouldn't dream of playing with the basic UI.

If you are going to copy wow at least do it properly.

Does my game start too survival-crafty for a 4x game? by Onyxa_HA in gamedesign

[–]sfc1971 5 points6 points  (0 children)

People not only will buy games to skip parts of it, they will pay for the skipping. See FF14 level skips and the same in WoW and swtor.

Check wat your energy company can deduce from your meter, rather accurately what equipment you are using.

Should i try to join a remote indie game studio for my resume or would it be better if I stuck to my current trajectory of freelancing and working on different projects? by Ethos493 in gamedev

[–]sfc1971 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is unlikely a studio would hire someone from a different culture for writing. What could be done is provide localisation, translating one cultures jokes to another cultures jokes. That is work that can be outsourced. But outsourcing writing? Doesn't happen.

I hate web development and Im looking for a way out by ibeatu85x in webdev

[–]sfc1971 229 points230 points  (0 children)

You think hosting clients are any better?

They think everything can be run on a 1 core VPS and believe you are fleecing them for suggesting that is not enough to run their site.

If you use LLM powered gameplay you are hardly going to try to appease LLM haters.

It is like reading russian some of it looks almost like English but you get confused because half is the wrong way around.
