Welp I had this idea for a project that would have allowed me to write rust again. Prototype was solid but I had some improvements in mind. Then I managed to optimize the library to the point of complete redundancy… so now I don’t have a project again…

Hear that? The winds of shit are blowing

Propane propane, time to start the game

Definitely not all games. Factorio makes you plan, construct, and optimize a factory. Expedition 33 requires full attention due to dialog so no watching shows/music on the 2th monitor. This but also requiring communication for most multiplayer games. Planet Toaster requires being in a creative mood where you don’t need extrinsic motivation to have fun.

Basically no, not all games are low effort. I’d say the majority aren’t. And I haven’t even mentioned the games that require memorizing a complex keyboard layout or need additional peripherals.

Oh they look absolutely fantastic

1100hrs in GTA6
Hmmm XD

But yeah I don’t work that way. I have hundreds of games installed and play so many at the same time. Also I think that most of my most played games are also not games I enjoy. I think 5 of the 18 100+ hours are games I could wholeheartedly recommend.

This approach sadly also means I can’t play complex games a lot. Memorizing the keybinds for 20 Armas is not possible. I realize I say this like I have no say in that but that’s what it feels like.

I just cracked the 100h mark on my 18th game on Steam. Big deal for me because I play a lot of games but never really stick with 1 game for long. That game is DJMAX Respect V btw. And my most played game has under 400 hours.

You know what I’m gonna brag even harder

Ewwwwww sorry I can only drink milk from cows. Thankfully Walmart withdrew from my country

I miss the days when $500 were enough to buy a console.

Learning more languages is always great, so definitely keep it up. But yeah those aren’t things that learning a new language can help you with. I also struggle with basically all of these, but don’t let that deter you!

May I ask what language you’re learning?

It does suck and makes work and playing some games impossible. Had to stop playing anything multiplayer at all because I suck so hard rn.
I didn’t really believe them when they said it could take up to 2 weeks for my eyes to adjust and a couple days ago my suspicions were kinda confirmed because I can see clearly if I flip the glasses around (I.e. with the temples pointing away from my face). Dunno what they fucked up but they certainly did fuck up.
Here’s hoping the fix won’t take long.

After a looooong time away I’m finally getting back into C++ properly now.
Then a game jam starts this evening, and tomorrow I’m finally getting my glasses checked. Haven’t been able to see properly for 2 weeks now and I hope it’s an easy fix.

So yeh busy weekend lmao

Went to the teeth doctor this morning so now my teeth feel wrong but look great lmao.

On a more autistic note, ever since the Pirate Software debacle a couple months ago even tho I despise this dickweed the phrase “Eat my entire ass” has been stuck in my head n I can’t get it out. It’s just so… I don’t have a word for it, it just fucks, y’know?

Yeah the fact that the basic 4x LMB into RMB combo is basically the only combo you can do kinda blows. The abilities do mix it up, but only a little. I hope it gets better since I’m only like 7-8 hours into the game and there’s still new stuff being added to the combat, but it does make a really bad first impression.

I still have a hearty backlog tho and I know Like A Dragon is waiting so the horizon is looking good. And I’m gonna buy Expedition 33 this Christmas sale.

Without it you could very easily just cheat yourself the cosmetics. Keep in mind the Dead Space suit costs almost $30. With kernel level anti cheat it’s slightly harder to accomplish.

Just bounced off of Elden Ring again. It’s a good game but idk starting a fresh playthrough just feels like a slog. And jumping back into my overheated character feels boring. I should remove it from my “favorite game” section on Steam but idk what should replace it.

Another game I’m way more into than I thought is Final Fantasy XVI. I’m not a huge FF fan and have gotten a lot less interested in turn based combat as I got older, so I really like this direction FF is heading into.

Clive and Sid’s VAs sound like 30 years older than their characters and the amount of cutscenes is quite overwhelming, but I’m invested.

I had it on my wishlist for quite some time and the reason why I finally pulled the trigger was a short 50 sec video of someone annihilating a deer with the power of god.

Yo why this post out here hating on my boi 035?

Note that this is developed by another developer, not Kunos themselves. They’re just using their tech, so this will have basically 0 influence on dev time for evo
