That’s depressing as fuck.

Bold of you to assume I even use auto complete!

Well, and then there’s the guy who made Balatro in Lua.

That’s actually a common practice in some areas. I saw people doing it in London for example.

God of War 2018 isn’t the same as God of War 2005, I’m not that old.

How did you support yourself after getting out?

Do you know why one would ever do that? 20(02/05)25 feels like the “Don’t Dead Open Inside” of dates.

Afaik, they are. It’s just that third party developers would need to optimize their file sizes heavily for the great pay off of reducing their profit margin. They already didn’t want to do that for the Switch and Nintendo now enables them to not do it to incentivize more ports.

At least in Japan, I think, every 1st party game comes on the cartridge, pretty much every third party game except for Cyberpunk comes as a code.

These games are meant to be played in 1st person and 3rd person is just an after thought. In this case, yes, that’s maybe just laziness or more likely they didn’t have time for low priority stuff.

There is nothing hard about 3D rotation, at least not for people successfully building a 3D open world game of that scope. Their characters can turn and you have a direction, there is no difference to walking in that sense.

If anything, assuming this is about NPCs, they didn’t want to create animations for that and just turning them mid animation looked stupid.

As for the PC, automatically turning the player is honestly a bad idea in first person. It can be disorienting for some players.

It’s incredible how seemingly effortlessly Cranston pulls off Hal again. One friendly smile and the whole mental image I got from Breaking Bad is forgotten.

I’m a layman, too, so take everything with a grain of salt.

As for evidence, if I both understood and remember correctly, the maximum distance we can actually see something (Hubble radius) just happens to align quite nicely with the Schwarzschild radius, a parameter based on the mass of a black hole, which correlates to its radius. They have to be identical for this theory to be true. Them almost being so could be a coincidence, though.

In addition, from our perspective, there’s no real difference between an expanding universe and one with shrinking particles. If the planck length actually shrinks, to us, it will seem like everything else will move away. Within the last 100 years, multiple people created some models for that, proving how it could work while leaving physics as we observe them intact.

A proof could be found by observing a white hole, the opposite of a black hole. A space you cannot possibly enter, ejecting energy. Think of it as the stuff entering the black hole from the outside, as oberserved from the inside. They are just a theory for now.

Once again, I’ve got not actual clue and you might want to dive into that rabbit hole yourself. It’s fun in here.

For the most part, the story is nothing to write home about and it’s not exactly the most beautiful game out there. However, I think the mechanics are great - I did enjoy my time with BD2 a lot and would recommend it.

That being said, if you don’t enjoy the gameplay, it won’t change that much. You just get more classes.

I’ve not yet touched it. But since you mentioned it: How does leveling now work? And more importantly, how does enemy scaling work?

If I remember correctly, in the original, I felt strongest when I got Umbra at Lv 1 and just never levelled up.

Furthermore, how are the character animations? I saw the Emperor in the Remake and while the model was quite nice, in combination with his facial animations, I actually preferred the original. What I assume to be the original animations paird with updated models seemed too uncanny. However, that problem could be specific to him.

That’s a fair point. My family isn’t exactly known for getting old. I didn’t even meet half my grandparents and the only one I really got to know only lived into my early teenage years. I’ll probably only get to around 70 myself.

Damn, I’m about a decade older than you and there’s no way I’d call 1950 recent in any way. For all I care, it’s just as much ancient history as the roman empire. I don’t know anyone alive from either period, at least not on a personal level.

2100 on the other hand feels closer because I’m expect to come close to it within my lifetime. At least closer than I ever was to 1950.

I never came around to Monark. Was it any good? I can’t quite remember what detered me back then. This does seem like it’s build on it.

Edit: Got corrected in another thread, these games may seem similar to me, but have different devs. It’s just the same publisher. These devs made Crymachina.

Those are some impressive scores, sucks that I don’t own anything I could play it on. Hopefully there’s a Switch 2 port in the future, since I’ll likely get one once a new Xenoblade game is on the horizon.

I’m not big on hardware, is a Switch 2 stronger than the weak Xbox version?

Did they change anything meaningful, like removing that aweful level scaling?

Earlier this year, I was in a similar predicament. I actually told Triss that I loved her. However, that only works if you take advantage of her while she’s drunk at the party. (She falls down while drunk and after you catch her, you can randomly kiss her.) I didn’t and locked myself out of romancing her early.

I would have lost many hours of progress by going back and frankly, I didn’t want to go for that choice. I cut my losses and went with Yen. Since then, I finished the whole game, DLCs included, and I don’t regret my choice. She gets a lot better later on and I came to appreciate her. Her quests are good. I just think the game does a poor job introducing her. I don’t care for either the books or the show and I’ve only played Witcher 2 once on release. With my first playthrough of Witcher 3 only starting last year, I knew literally nothing going in. Up until I could romance Triss, Yen was annoying and arrogant.
