The Stranger

Ah, yeah teleporting to a blank map would have been my guess... It feels a bit more tidy than having to create the menues on every map.

Yeah, and I don't have to deal with other events on other maps. Oh, I can also give the player some unique in-menu music to listen to if I want. xD

Oh that is nice! I like that a lot.

Absolutely. I've Seen it probably a million times. But i am a huge Fan of Luc Besson in General. Did you know, that he wrote the script for the movie, when he was 17?

Wow! Really? I didn't know that. That's pretty impressive. I loved the strange mix of science and the supernatural in the story. My favourite aspect of the film, however, is probably its depiction of futuristic cities. Even now, I wish for the future will be like that. xD

If you are into manga you might enjoy the works of tsutomu nihei. He used to be an architect before he started creating manga and his city designs are outstanding but very dystopian. Blame! And biomega would be good examples.

Yeah, I agree with you on giving up at certain things. While it's great to try to do things by yourself, you just can't learn everything - sometimes you just need to find somebody who does it better than you so you can focus on who you can do.

I'm certainly not going to learn how to compose music for example, because that would be hopeless. xD
Sticking to only doing character faces/busts and simple edits, because that's what I'm alright at.

Exactly and it's fine to find someone who is really good at it to make it for you. I won't make music either, no way I can't sprite.
I can make simple edits as well, so I will stick with that. Not sure about character faces, I can't make busts that's for sure but I'm kinda okay with faces

@mishakoc

xD

That song got to number 1 in the 2018 Christmas charts. lol.

Ooo, interesting. I was a bit confused because I was just eating a sausage roll.

@mishakoc I think that any distortion of the basic human face causes a sense of horror and uneasiness in many people. You can make a face look really creepy and alien by simply removing the eyes, nose, or mouth. I feel that this is especially true when it comes to eyes. A face with no eyes is fairly common in horror stories for a reason.

@Tai_MT I agree, more non-human parts would be amazing. The beastman pack, and now the zombie pack, is a step in the right direction. I'd also like to see more generator parts for men; women get all the love. lol.

@The Stranger It's called "Uncanny Valley". Something that you think is human, should be human, but is JUST DIFFERENT ENOUGH for you to think, "this is not human, this is not like me, and it's parading as something that is like me". It hits our "danger" sense pretty hard.

That's nice. It increases concentration I suppose

It does! Helps create a sense of order in my tiny flat. I was just sitting on my bed when using my laptop, but it hurt my back and made it more difficult to sleep; I seemed to link my sleeping space with my doing stuff space.

I hate hyperawareness

Makes you appreciate your brain's natural ability to ignore 99% of things. Being aware of every little thing touching you, and even just your skin, is annoying. xD

Side effects aren't good. Get on top of your doctor and work with him to try another medication for whatever that medication is treating.

Originally from the PS4\PSN store. I just Googled it so I could also use it on PC. xD

I even have a CD somewhere with this game. But there is no drive and I think it is too old. However, I really like its editor. He was a great and pure love of mine.

Yeah, I loved the NWN Aurora editor. It was so easy to make maps with. Made a terrible mod compaign using it. xD I wonder if the console version will have a map editor?

I never had a console. I don't know. That editor was the first experience of coding and working with 3D models )

I heard their mightiest weapon was jumping into the cola rivers, which lead to them exploding and destroying everything in sight.

Their liberal use of cola related WMDs has been denounced by all of Mintland. Unfortunately, such political repercussions have done little to help in the liberation of once free mints from their imperialistic overlords.

It is indeed )

If I ever saw something like that (And it's not Halloween), it'd just make my otherwise lousy day!

I love seeing things like this, it makes me happy. It also makes me want to be a father even more than I already do.

My workout is chasing after my kid half the time.
Note to self: You are never ready for what a 1 half year is about to do.

I miss working out, use to do it about 4-5 times during the week.

I think it was the shower that made me so sleepy. That, and the fact it's so cold because of the rain.

@RouletteBunnie I use my exercise bike (I have one of those mini ones because I can't mentally face going to a gym) three times a week, and lift weights the other days of the week. Exercise and diet have done wonders for my physical health. Used to be overweight, but now I'm not. Doctor was amazed at how well I've done.

Been reading about Zoroastrian fire temples today. There were 16 different types of fire, and three grades of fire that had to be consecrated by priests. The highest grad eof fire was the Fire of Victory, and was made up of all 16 different kinds of fire, required 32 priests to perform the year long consecration cermeony. It's really interesting.

Googled it, and it seems a fair few people are experiencing it. Really wish I could somehow change it back to how it was. I can zoom the browser out so as to make the thumbnails smaller, but then the text becomes super small too.

On my end, I deleted my watch history and now youtube just *can't* pick a suggested video for the life of them.
Zero. Nada. Absolutely *clueless* as to what to suggest me. They have literally ZERO suggestions.
My home page is literally blank.
I've been coming back to it regularly and LOL'ing the heck out of it.

I've noticed it if I do half and half screens.

If it's anything like FES, it'll just be that you upload the game to a basic hosting menu thing, and then set search conditions and a summary. Then, people can rate your game if they download it (no playing necessary).

Not being able to import third party assets is a no go for me, and not being to change the code is also a no go for me. From my understanding rpg makers on consoles never let you do both.

Does next to nothing for me.

:/

My younger brother struggles with anxiety and has said good things about weighted blankets. Says it very soothing at night (when much of the anxiety hits) & kind of feels like a warm hug.

Me too, bro. Time to add more to my to-do list xD

Pretty cool that they are making another one.

And, I like nature levels! I always feel overwhelmed and lost in cities...which I guess kind of thematically supports a city...LOL. I’m very much a ranting, manic pixie of a person so I definitely dig ye ole enchanted forest.

There is a concept in themed entertainment called "Aspirational Design" - essentially, if you were to close your eyes and dream of being (X), what are the things you would want to do, and what are the things you'd want to have around you?

So, if I were to imagine being a citizen (or adventurer) in an Otherworld, there are a LOT of things that I could think of which would feel more appealing and aspirational than trudging around inside a sewer system! That's why even a well-made dungeon around the sewer theme doesn't feel as awesome to most people.
