    RPG cliches your tired of.

    "It was all just a dream" worked in Alice in Wonderland because it was a story about wandering through a bunch of interesting vignettes that didn't amount to anything. You could scramble the order of half the chapters and it wouldn't make a difference, because the point of the story is about a...

    Suppression, Overwatch, And Rockets: How Do I Firearms?

    I already have the answer. You really want me disagreeing with an active forum regular to have some dire consequence, but no, the longer post demonstrably worked. You can imagine that maybe three bullet points would've worked too, but that hasn't been my experience. Also, defensive? I explained...

    Suppression, Overwatch, And Rockets: How Do I Firearms?

    ...yes? ATT_Turan gave me the information I needed in less than six hours.

    Suppression, Overwatch, And Rockets: How Do I Firearms?

    More, yes, better, no. A consistent result of leaving out what the end result is supposed to actually look like is that I get answers that do answer the fragment of the real question I posted but which are useless as solutions for the full problem. Sure, I can lure people in with the promise...

    Is writing dialogues a pleasure or a consuming task in your game development

    I mean, if you just want to make an LLM-driven game because you think LLMs are cool, then sure, why not? Just don't try and convince me you've replaced 80% of writers with a machine that struggles to reach the level of quality that would blend into the fanfic.net slush pile.

    Is writing dialogues a pleasure or a consuming task in your game development

    The new line is no different from the old one. I would expect it to be worse, since you've instructed the LLM to be less helpful but it hasn't gotten any smarter, but the new line is actually pretty indistinguishable from the old. This isn't subtle, it's opaque. It isn't a carefully crafted...

    Is writing dialogues a pleasure or a consuming task in your game development

    Maybe try reading the second sentence of my post. We've been able to ASK WIZARD ABOUT MAP since 1979, the reason why that interface got phased out is not because it was impossible to get the computer to provide functional responses, it was because people did not like it. And the writing in your...

    Suppression, Overwatch, And Rockets: How Do I Firearms?

    My current project is a sort of Final Fantasy VIII-ish kind of thing (not really, but that's the closest analogue and I don't want to open with four paragraphs describing the setting's tech level) where guns and swords are both valid military grade weapons because all engagements begin at like...

    Is writing dialogues a pleasure or a consuming task in your game development

    I promise you will not be able to create a game requiring social skills and logic using ChatGPT. ChatGPT does not require social skills to interact with, and it lacks the subtlety to provide clues while witholding answers.

    So, uh, what's this RPG Maker Unite thing?

    $200,000 isn't what Unity charges. $200,000 is the revenue threshold at which Unity's charges kick in. So, if you've made less than $200,000, Unity won't charge you anything. Above $200,000, they charge you $0.20 per install, retroactively. If you have a $1 game, that's a minimum of 200,000...

    So, uh, what's this RPG Maker Unite thing?

    Unity's move here is definitely stupid, which makes their next move unpredictable. It won't necessarily be something which benefits them. If they need to increase profits and were smart about it, they would've gone with a 5% charge on all profits above $200,000 starting January 1st, 2024. People...

    Is writing dialogues a pleasure or a consuming task in your game development

    ChatGPT's writing is stilted and mediocre. But sometimes you want stilted and mediocre dialogue in an RPG. It helps clue the player in that this NPC is not important to the plot and is just here so the town doesn't look too desolate, with just enough dialogue to make them seem like they aren't...

    So, uh, what's this RPG Maker Unite thing?

    I started pivoting away from crowdfunding D&D 5e content when Hasbro tried something similar back in January, and as part of that I started learning Unity, and then this happened so I came here. It's probably not a curse following me, specifically, but maybe start learning Godot just in case.

    Best engine for this project?

    I am considering trying to make an RPGMaker game. There's a lot of discussion of which version is better in general, with the general consensus being that the newer engines are usually better (except Unite, if that one event counts) but it takes a while for the library of plugins and tutorials...

so I had two plugin that essentially overwrite each other depending on where they are in the list. so I had to edit what was overwriting one into the other and now they both work. I REALLY need to sit down and just learn JavaScript. I hate that I know just enough to know I don't know NEARLY enough lol.
The Open Hand scandal got even more spicy. The Completionist streamer Jirard made a video response and tossed a bunch of links and documents, but apparently none of it actually addressed why donations he collected sat for 10 years (way too long to justify). He also seemed to threaten defamation suits vs. people for what amounts to pointing out publicly available records. The IRS should definitely audit.
My next update is going to amazing! There's been major additions and things I've wanted to do in previous versions that weren't possible until now. It's not ready yet, but will be soon!
made an RTP edit to try to save on work, found out I was editing the wrong tilesheet of cliffs.
It's fine... I'm fine... I'm sure fixing this won't take too long
Proud of the work done.
