I moved through the kitchen like a ninja, shifting effortlessly from serving plate to serving plate. I avoided detection from the stuffing and coleslaw soldiers and successfully made contact with turkish, mashed potatish, sweet potatish and green bean casserolian operatives. At the end, I rendezvoused with a pecan pie

Is good food strategy eating your favourite parts of the meal, and giving the rest to the dog?

@The Stranger I meant it more in the sense of not pigging out on the hor d'eourves or side dishes, and saving room for the best parts (actual turkey, dessert) without feeling like a sphere afterwards... but I do like your Dog Strategy!! That would work too

Yeah. It's not about appealing to everyone, but knowing who your game is for, and what it's all about.

Yes. That is why I say find your audience and make the game for them. Don't try to appease every crowd, otherwise you end up pleasing no one in the end.

I'd read it.

@Milennin Yeah, the heart of the argument would be around weak/resist mechanics and not thematic skill sets (which are always cool) - but if my title is 14 words long, no one will read my article!

Unless its clickbait. Try "He removed elements from his game. You will never guess what happened next!"

Still better misguided men than misguided missiles.

But misguided men could make the missiles misguided.

Don't give them ideas for a new Geico Commercial.

Source control ftw. Not just a weekly backup but a backup after every work session

I'd say everyday. Who knows when your project is gonna crash and everything gets lost *gets scary flashbacks*

No idea what KyoAni even is.

@The Stranger It's short for Kyoto Animation. They've made several known animes like Clannad, Haruhi Suzumiya, Lucky Star, Free! etc. There was an arson attack yesterday killing nearly half of the building occupants.

the motive behind that incident just because plagiarizing,as I read and watch some news,

I don't use Google, and DuckDuckGo is too sensible, it seems, to produce anything unusual. What did google do?

@Kes The final bullet point on the little list is "mainframe computer".

@Trihan Don't be a copycat! Just because all the RPGs include a Crafting System and a Mainframe Computer doesn't mean that you have to!!

@Kes Exactly what Trihan said above.

Not really. Sure, it has the King going missing and the advisor taking the throne (sorta) but It's also about Ezra, the elf, and the Dragon's journey.

The Undertale part, 2 main things that was really bad. One was forcing Frisk's gender into others face, demading them to agree that they are that specific gender, some would even bring up the struggle about misgendering issues irl.

The other part was disagreement of pairing, shipping.

Try league of legends PVP match. I think some game player can be too competitive and focused too much on winning.

@Kupotepo I frequently play Ranked in LoL, and yeah, people get incredibly toxic there. Not only are people too competitive like you said, but they also take it personally when they don't play well, looking for anyone to blame. (BTW, add me if you'd like - my summoner name is Rob Grompkowski)

Balls.

GTA-like game?

GC Dimensional Chasers? I stopper playing that after I failed to patch for a while hahahaha

According to The Independent newspaper, the death toll rises above 370. https://news.yahoo.com/indonesia-tsunami-death-toll-rises-131300671.html

Oh no... I hope so too @Wavelength

Thanks! I and my family are safe, and we live in a place far away from tsunami threats. Only a volcano that barely erupted during 2014.

All of the amendments for my state are null pending changes in Federal law that are unlikely...they are pointless pole bait.

Also if you only pay attention to presidential and midterm elections then you shouldn't vote at all. Local elections are generally much more important and the fact less than 10% of the population pays attention to them to blame for a lot of corruption state to state.

@Philosophus Vagus Totally agree with you, but won't expand further since political talk isn't allowed here.

So I just wanted to offer encouragement to cast a vote, which is so important, and to be informed while doing it.

Thankfully my county puts most of its major issues on the pres/midterm ballots.

I hope you have fun cast your vote and watch election advertisements.

This is probably better done by pm than by public Update posts.

Or open his profile, stalk his contents

Ah, sorry kes let me explain myself on your profile

@Philosophus Vagus but Wal-Mart loves it

As a Brit I had to look up what 'lounge pants' meant. Oh, them things! Yeah, comfort x 100.
@Philosophus Vagus No pants could be socially awkward in some situations.

I like workout shorts pant or informal shorts. It is kind of hot where I live to wear a long pant.

@Sharm I think you're right! Socializer is about having shared experiences with other people, so even if the kinds of "social" experiences in MMOs don't appeal to you, it sounds like you enjoy similar dynamics in different forms.

67% Explorer, 67% Socialiser, 60% Achiever, 7% Killer.
Sounds roughly right. I do like to explore new areas and aspects of the game. Socialiser should be lower as I generally don't play games to socialise, though some good fun with a close friend can be great. Definitely not a PvP kind of player, so killer is definitely my lowest. I don't get kicks out of owning other players.

EKAS 73% 73% 40% 13% the killing is part of what makes exploring exciting.

@bgillisp Yeah. It resumed after 2 hours, then was delayed for a second time (more lightning), then finally resumed another hour or two later and finished, becoming the longest game in NFL history since the merger! Dolphins 27, Titans 20. Crazy stuff.

Do you like watching dolphins playing games?

@Alanood Eeeee! Ee-ee-ee-ee-ee!

(Occasionally, an obstacle's "graphic reconciliation" would be done before the obstacle spawned, meaning it would be stuck with a placeholder of some sort from the spawn event.)

The right music sets the right atmosphere.

Of course not, if it's well optimized for speed. But Yanfly's engine is not optimized for speed. The default engine is even less optimized per speed. When I built my own engine, I achieved drastic speed increase just by separating events to PIXI.Sprites and PIXI.extras.AnimatedSprites, because certain events don't need to be updated at 60 frames per second.

And yes, a plugin could do things via checkboxes. But what difference does it make compared to notetags in terms of executed code? There are up to three ifs per check in both cases. In default engine I don't have these three checks. Yeah, three if checks are nothing. But Yanfly's plugins add up quite quickly.

When Yanfly's plugins become optimized for speed, I will still not support any potential including them in default code, but I'll have at least one more reason to accept that. But as it stands, when I play around with MV, I use at most 6-8 Yanfly's plugins and the rest is bloatware for me. And having all 130+ Yanfly's plugins on drops my FPS to 40 and the loading times increase considerably.
