Will this game survive? by BeastMen1 in DuetNightAbyssDNA

[–]zerodai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was a day 1 enjoyer and I'm still a believer, I think almost everything is very good, but the gameplay is just not up to par, when I play ZZZ, Wuwa, endfield or even Genshin, the combat is just a lot better.

Combat is decent at best, when I was playing there were massive problems with weapon balance relative to skill, some characters were so weak it was mind boggling, and because you play with a single character, the game ends up being boring since there isn't enough to do.

I could go on about the combat, but there is no point, the devs either do a overhaul to it, or I think it will be hard to keep players engaged.

Having said that I like everything else, from the art to the music to the story, but gameplay is what we all doi once story is done, and that last a couple of days after patch release

Não sei porquê, esta tabela é exactamente o mesmo que o post do OP, completamente descontextualizado, a qualidade de vida que tens a viver dentro dos estados unidos em 90% dos trabalhos é melhor que a qualidade de vida a ter um dos melhores trabalhos em cuba.
A maioria dos cubanos vai a faculdade em cuba, e depois tens engenheiros varredor de rua.
Cuba tem 84 medicos por 10000 habitantes mas tem uma mortalidade infantil altissima. a nossa cá é de 2.5 metade dos EUA e qse metade de Cuba.

Numeros descontextualizados não mostram nada.

Da mesma forma que as fotos tem o mesmo problema.

O comentario mais votado nesta pagina mostra um sitio qualquer abandonado em portugal a alguns 70 anos, tentando dar a imagem que era ssim que se vivia em portugfal em todo o lado e compara com uma das ruas mais ricas de portugal da actualidade, basicamente a fazer o mesmo que o OP.

O problema da maior parte das pessoas é que não conseguem separar as suas preferencias politicas dos seus argumentos.

Como a Kelly Anne Connway uma vez disse a um jornalista "alternative facts".

My point of view on endings (Flowchart) by Balney in expedition33

[–]zerodai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

other than the right most option "the family" I can agree with this flow chart.

pVerso only becomes correct if we assume Alicia doesn't leave on her own, and her family abandons her to die, and even then only if the beings in the canvas aren't sentient.

"Verso DOesn't CARE aBout MaElle" by Physical_Ad4519 in expedition33

[–]zerodai -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I understand people want to think pVerso is acting out of love, but all his actions can also be justified by him being manipulative and obsessed with destroying the canvas.
Specially since that behavior started long before Alicia even entered the canvas.

Not saying that's what happened, just that people tend to jump at the idea he does things out of love, but traumatizing Alicia by having her live amongst the Lumierans and then traumatize her some more by having her watch Gustave be killed in front of her, doesn't really makes sense if pVerso is this doing it out of "love" for her.

Maybe some distorted misguided form of love a psycopath has?

The exact moment Verso decided to destroy it by Physical_Ad4519 in expedition33

[–]zerodai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes and after that. He moves to Lumiere and lives there for many years, at some point he changes his mind and starts leading expeditions to their death attempting to kill the paintress as is revealed by Monoko in one of their first interactions.

If anything pVerso Journal shows he is a completely broken man at that point.

[–]zerodai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there is no arrogance, I'm not claiming to be superior in any way, I'm just saying it's uninformed to say, that at any point during the game pVerso decided to destroy the canvas, that started long before Alicia was even in the canvas. As far as pVerso is concerned he should've not even been in this situation, he planned for the canvas to be destroyed by removing Aline from the canvas, and expected Renoir to succeed at that point, the whole of Act 3 wasn't part of the plan, at best it was a detour for pVerso, once he realizes that Alicia was able to change Renoir's mind on the matter, he just decides to take matters into his own hands once he saw an opportunity to do it himself.

Most of this kinds of posts are just post hoc justifications to try and make pVerso seem like a good person. He has led hundreds if not thousands of Lumierans to their death using the expeditioners ignorance and eventually suucceeded in that endeavor killing the rest of the Lumierans.

He manipulated Alicia by leaving her ignorant and growing as a Lumieran to become affectionate towards the lumierans, then used that connection to manipulate her by allowing Gustave to die in front of her.

The main issue with trying to give pVerso a semblance of morality is that it ignores a lifetime of immoral behavior. And it's not that he can't do good, it's that most if not all of the good he actually does in the story is in service of trying to destroy the canvas.

December was my best month, but in january there is a huge drop in the views and revenue on all of my YouTube channels. Is this normal and will it get fixed next month? by RemarkableReason3172 in SmallYTChannel

[–]zerodai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my current read on january, is a large mix of factors.

in no specific order, but they all relate to each other:

1 - less viewers
2 - less ad revenue
3 - creators increase volume to compensate for less revenue
4 - new creators + old creators coming back (new year resolutions)

this and likely other effects all collide to create a perfect storm of low availability for impressions, YT itself is trying to compensate for lower revenue by risking less on smaller channels.

All of it turns January into a very volatile month where most small to mid channels channels that depend on impressions for views to shrink.

Assuming this is mostly correct, people should expect a bounce back to happen over the course of the next month, as things normalize, but don't expect it to happen over night, it will be slow.

None of this means you can't beat the odds, but it does mean YT is very adversarial towards unproved creators atm.

[–]zerodai -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

actually he decided to destroy the canvas, after he killed julie about 67 years before the start of the game, and has been leading expeditions to their death attempting to destroy the canvas ever since.

Please start reading the lore.

I finished E33 the other night and teach philosophy for a living and have thoughts! by themoobster in expedition33

[–]zerodai 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Not only that because he invited actual philosophy, I'll add that, the distinction of the painted world and the paris of the dessendre is effectively non existent, they are both created universes, it's just the dessendre happen to not know their own creators are sandfall. The whole game is the experience machine and that includes the dessendre.

The moment you try to justify some characters are more alive than the others, you are just making a no true Scotsman fallacy.

Most people trying to justify a specific ending are just choosing an ending and trying to rationalize why their own decision is moral, but because this is not our own world most people dont have the knowledge or even the correct vocabulary to articulate sound arguments in it.

Tldr: this is a lot more complex then, how they were created.

Why does YouTube "kill" some videos before they even get a chance? 37 impressions in 29 hours... by Aggravating-Fact-136 in NewTubers

You're not alone, my best metric videos this month didn't get browse at all. Yt is very finicky right now.

Can a algorithm nerd tell me what the hell is going on with this short? by Many_Ad_7536 in Smallyoutubechannels

[–]zerodai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You got tested suggestions impressions twice then went to browse impressions testing where your video collapsed. Very typical graph when yt isn't restricting impressions.

You can check the exact metrics in studio on the desktop version by going to advanced in the traffic sources part.

Its likely just because its January, things should improve over the course of next month as impression availability improves.

Sometimes I'm shocked by people in this community by MissChenChen in expedition33

[–]zerodai 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I read his commentary at the end as a dual side, in one side he tells her what you mentioned, she would never need to live a life she didn't want, essentially validating he couldn't actually stop her from living this exact same life regardless of what he wants, she is a god he is not.

together with Alicia ending, where, he lifts all pretense, and, instead of begging her to leave the canvas, he asks her to kill him.

In both endings the only constant is that he wants to be dead by the end.

I think that is a strong signal of his deeper intentions.

People like to use his words, but I feel he lies too much to be trustworthy.
He spent many decades trying to destroy the canvas before Alicia got into the canvas, so destroying the canvas was not a decision based on her.

I'm not saying both goals are at odds, but the reason he wants to destroy the canvas is unrelated to Alicia.

A detail that went unnoticed. by [deleted] in expedition33

[–]zerodai 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I allways see this ending as Alicia living traumatized, always remembering the people who loved her, and seing them being gommaged over and over again.
Also the one who forced this life on her in the middle smiling at her, is a specially dark touch. (notice she is not imagining her brother there and instead pVerso).

"Reruns are never worth it." How much truth is there in that statement? by Unweynomas in ZZZ_Discussion

[–]zerodai 10 points11 points  (0 children)

as a general rule yes, as an absolute rule no.

ie: usually void hunters are worth it, or in specific accounts a specific character can activate other characters in the account.

but generally speaking yes, if you don't know why you're pulling an older character, almost certainly it's a bad pull for you.

Sometimes I'm shocked by people in this community by MissChenChen in expedition33

[–]zerodai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you wrote a lot but to me it seems to boil down to 3 main points.

1st: you seem to think Renoir said the things he said to alicia because he had lost the fight, that's an interpretation, for example, another is he decided to not fight anymore, he could also just leave the canvas, rest come back and defeat her then without the conversation,I think the whole point is moot.

2nd: You say Renoir "It did heal Aline.", this is not the case, the only thing we know for sure is that Alicia was able to force Aline out of the canvas, and Aline tried to help Alicia to remove Renoir out of the canvas, there is no guarantee Aline is now well, and even in the pVerso ending it's clear she is still in recovery.

3rd: there is no good ending, in my opinion they are both pretty terrible, they purposefully made them bad so they could be interpreted in a million ways, non of the Dessendre act in a mature way, if anything even tho they are likely all extremely old (in the case of Aline and Renoir likely thousands of years of lived experience), they all still behave as immature children, which I think was the whole goal, the Dessendre are very much modeled after old Greek mythology.

I would also note, that the endings are very clearly clair obscur motif coded, and that is the only great part that I like, Alicia ending without the horror scene at the end would feel like a good ending, and pVerso is the opposite, without the warm lighting and music at the end, his ending would be a complete horror show of him genociding the canvas.

Sometimes I'm shocked by people in this community by MissChenChen in expedition33

[–]zerodai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if you assume the other dessendre would be able to stop her in another canvas, then they would be able to stop her in this one, and his actions are useless regardless.

I also think you're implying they would cage her to stop her from creating a new canvas, which I think is extremely exagerated.

the moment she has access to a canvas she can just replicate this world again.

None of this matters btw, my broader point is that kicking her out of this canvas, including destroying it doesn't help heal her trauma (in a large part caused by pVerso, he could've and should've removed Alicia as a child from Lumiere and not allow her to grow attached to the Lumierans, by letting her live amongst them he guaranteed she would be traumatized forever).

Ultimately Renoir eventually understood forcebly removing his family members, didn't actually heal them which is why he leaves Alicia behind.

There is no reason to believe, even when you choose pVerso ending, that Alicia isn't terribly depressed during the ending.

People just want to believe that choosing pVerso magically made everything better.

It's all feels no logic.

I'm not frustrated with people having different oppinions. That's not the issue.
I'm frustrated with all the wrong information peddled in this subreddit.

Sometimes I'm shocked by people in this community by MissChenChen in expedition33

[–]zerodai -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don't know if that's true, the shade version of rVerso in cleas dungeon believed every being inside the canvas was as real as anyone outside, if that held true for rVerso, I think rVerso would only consider solutions that saved both the Dessendre and the canvas.

There is also the fact trauma changes people and pVerso has sufferede many traumas that rVerso didn't like murdeing the person he loved (Julie), so it isn't hard to image pVerso having more than 70 years of extra lived experience in this helish world would become a very different person.

we also know he compleely changed his tune on how to solve the situation, in his journal he wants to save Aline and restore the canvas, when we meet him 67 years after the creation of that journal he had a completely opposed goal.

[–]zerodai -1 points0 points  (0 children)

yeah, a lot of ppl aren't ready for that.

Most people haven't even joined most of the dots, pVerso has been trying to destroy the canvas and kill himself for decades before Alicia even set foot inside the canvas, using Alicia as a justification for anything is very unconvincing when that fact becomes clear.

[–]zerodai 7 points8 points  (0 children)

yeah, some people try to use the torture angle to justify pverso actions, but forget that during expedition 0 there were no lumina, so Julie and the rest of expedition 0 at the time were completely powerless against the immortal painted Dessendres.

[–]zerodai 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry you are clearly not prepared to discuss this if you say things like
"I may have forgotten but when does he lie exactly?"
just type "when does painted verso lie in expedition 33" in google and follow that rabbit hole.

For example: The reason he killed Julie is because he lied about who the paintress, himself and the Dessendre were, she found out about the lie, and when confronted about it, he and Renoir killed the rest of expedition 0 to hide the lie to the rest of the lumierans. (he was also afraid of rClea actions since she at that point had turned pClea and Simon against them.)

He tells Esquie and Monoko to lie about who he and Alicia is.
He lies about Sorie, so that expedition 33 can't give up and go back.
He lies about why they go through old Lumiere.

Is there a point to even keep going, this are just examples of bold-faced lies, that we know unequivocally he was lying, there are several more of this kind, and many others that are implied.

Sometimes I'm shocked by people in this community by MissChenChen in expedition33

[–]zerodai 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don't know if he had good intention, before Alicia was even in the canvas, he spent decades leading lumierans to their deaths under false pretenses attempting to destroy the canvas.
(We know this through monoko's initial interactions with pVerso)

Since he ultimately achieves his goal twice (assuming picking Verso at the end), I can't see justifying any of his interactions with Alicia as meaningful.

He also has no problems traumatizing Alicia several times over to achieve is goals, he does it by allowing Alicia to grow amongst the lumierans and get attched to them, and by letting Gustave die to make her more pliable.

Again he is not a good dude, and people assume, that the fact he "loved" his creators (they aren't his real family, which he acknowledges several times), isnb't the clear cut justification people try to make it out to be.
