Definitely agree! I barely played TotK because, aside from the flying stuff together aspect, I’d already done everything I wanted in BotW. I did my exploring, my climbing, my juggling weapons during combat. I’ve done had more than my fill of those dinkly little shrines.

BotW is better imo because of what it was: new and surprising. TotK was good but (aside from some gimmicks that made driving around a bit more creative and streamlined) more of the same.

Anyway thanks for sharing!

FINALLY 👏

That’s how all corporate fines should work imo

You sweet summer child 😆

Can’t wait for shader compilation stutter and aa smear!

Snark aside using an engine makes sense, their last game flopped hard and they should be prioritizing getting a successful title out. They’re good enough that I’d expect them to have most of the common pitfalls worked out anyway

yes 👍

DevDuck did a little video on how he keeps his 11k loc project organized, worth a watch for some ideas: https://youtu.be/4az0VX9ApcA

I don’t have any insight about the inventory management, you might be able to look at some of the addons for inventory systems to see how they handle it

The exploration is part of why I love Snowrunner (et al.) so much. You end up spending a lot of time slowly working your way through mud, looking for anchor points and easier routes. It feels kinda like an “adventure metroidvania” where the challenge is learning how to navigate the world before giving you the tools to blast through.

I recommend disabling any minimap in any game ever. Little dotted line syndrome is real and harms immersion!

Also hard rec for Any Austin, one of my favorite recent discoveries!

“hey, I know you feel like killing yourself, but if it happens then we’ll just replace you with a shitty bot” probably isn’t as helpful as they thought it would be. It’s violating and ghoulish.

I think it’s directed at people that like silly vulgar jokes

I don’t use office lol

Yeah, “upgrade” is a strong word for something that’s ugly as sin and just about as unintuitive to use

Your friend the Turtle… He died a few years ago. The old idiot puked inside his shell and choked to death on a galaxy or two. Very sad, don’t you think? But also quite bizarre.

small force of around 142,000 troops

bruh

Edit: oh you’re the one who posted “Zelensky didn’t “start” the war, he provoked it

Easy block, will not miss the blatant propaganda

But I thought vibe coding was good actually 😂

I start most days with a toasted deagle slathered in butter

A new post-LLM coding opportunity: turd polishing

They can vibe as much as they want, but don’t ever ask me to touch the mess they create.

Huh, a random recent podcast mentioned them doing something with worms (speculating because there had been an uptick in players). I wonder if this is it?

Always has been 🔫
