Meh…yeah, kinda. I just wanted to evangelize C, dammit.Isn't that just like, a much nicer way to say the same thing I said lol

IMO, I think what people really want at the moment are more meaningful changes; gameplay overhauls, more quality writing, story progression, performance and stability improvement, etc. People want to see the game move forward, in a consistent way, and not just sideways. They want to see improvement.I lurk here periodically to collect feedback, combat data, and bugs on content I submit. Mostly the first one.
Also seeing the emotional investment people have is amusing/frightening.
I felt compelled to speak this time because "more useless items" has been a consistent criticism of what I contribute, not just here, so if even a related quest (which is not particularly deep or interesting unless you are some kind of lore nerd, I admit) still makes it bloat then it is time for me to shift gears.
Combat was even less interesting, in my opinion, before the AP system, and I have tried to diversify what I have, but if no one cares then no one cares.
I don't think it's been "normalized;" it's still something you wouldn't expect from a Dev that claims to want to do solo work on a game. We just don't kid ourselves about what the result is going to be. For example, I wouldn't be surprised if Inno eventually stopped contributing core mechanics and a group of loyal modders basically started doing the work there as well. It's not what I expect to happen; it just wouldn't be a shocking result, given the current pattern and environment.I'm honestly surprised that no one else has comment on the blog update. Have we finally normalized how little Inno contributes compared to the volunteers? At this point they're adding and fixing core mechanics, adding quest content, and more item bloat that absolutely no one cares about because combat in this game is a joke lol
Just because it was more shit before doesn't mean its good now. I know the whole "don't let better be the enemy of perfect" thing, but that only applies when "better" doesn't make it harder to continue improving.I lurk here periodically to collect feedback, combat data, and bugs on content I submit. Mostly the first one.

Don't worry, I'll do it for us.Meh…yeah, kinda. I just wanted to evangelize C, dammit.
Do you normally change your Win10 display settings (for reading, etc)? There are some options that alter the size of text, apps, or both.So I've been having a problem with my game. I use to be able to play fine, but now my resolution when I start up the game is fucked and half the options are not accessible. This happened for all versions of game I have, even previous downloads. I also tried to re-download the game and it didn't help either.
This has happened before in the past, where I'll play fine and then out of no-where the games res becomes fucked one time I load into it. But usually it'll be fixed if I just re-download or get the newest update.
Messed around with it and it seemed to work, thanks!Do you normally change your Win10 display settings (for reading, etc)? There are some options that alter the size of text, apps, or both.

I have moved into translating other people's writing into quests and NPCs. It's still side content, but hopefully that will be more palatable.but what the game needs right now goes beyond of what those templates offer.
There is little interest in balance, this is true. I gave up a while ago because all combat data is poisoned by exploits so all stats just follow an arbitrary linear progression now. The intent, for now at least, is to balance at the end.At this point, the entire system is going to need to be either redesigned from the ground up, or every encounter in the game is going to need to be rebalanced.
And this is only going to be a bigger issue going forward, because it wasn't future proofed at all. There's no built in scaling or progression that'll be easy to work with.
Don't be shy.So, I'm guessing now is not the most appropriate time to talk about a mod that I'm working about.

Anyway, it's quite a shame to see the game be stagnant for so long. I do hope for the best for Inno and their game.
Dope, nothing wrong with that. The game could use some new, well written quests and NPCs.I have moved into translating other people's writing into quests and NPCs. It's still side content, but hopefully that will be more palatable.
And that loops us back around to what I was saying, and the issue this part of the community has taken with the game (so much so that Inno had to boot us all from the blog comments), there's no end in site.There is little interest in balance, this is true.

Fuck no, this is the perfect time. We're going on months with no new content except for a half-assed, half finished romance quest. If people who are still willing don't mod in content, there will never be new content lolSo, I'm guessing now is not the most appropriate time to talk about a mod that I'm working about.

Currently I'm working on a small modpack focusing on Australia.
Originally I was just planning on three races (Kangaroos, "Tasmania Tigers", and Emus). Eventually I decided to add Dingos, Koalas, and Bandicoots (as a joke). Right now I'm working up on fishing the design of the weapons and testing them a bit.
Uhhh, what are the pics for?I'll be honest with you guys I just wanted an excuse to post what I said, Seeing you guys where talking mods and knowing DSG lurks around here. I'm away from my Gaming Workstation so I can't really show you what have now. Fortunately I do have these images.
'No end in sight': Same goes for the constant stream of anger, hate and repetition of the same arguments over and over.And that loops us back around to what I was saying, and the issue this part of the community has taken with the game (so much so that Inno had to boot us all from the blog comments), there's no end in site.

Ready the blurb at the bottom of the spoiler lolUhhh, what are the pics for?
Yeah, it's kind of like there hasn't been any updates in months.'No end in sight': Same goes for the constant stream of anger, hate and repetition of the same arguments over and over.
For several pages now it has been nothing but repeating each others sentences - just with minor changes in wording. Maybe its time to also create an end to that and get back to some more substantial topics around the game.
Oh, I accidentally omitted, that those where some of things that inspired me.Uhhh, what are the pics for?
I might be showing my age a little here, but I wish more games/mods were inspired by UT2004 maps.Oh, I accidentally omitted, that those where some of things that inspired me.
Definitely not just you. UT2k4 was the fucking best.I might be showing my age a little here, but I wish more games/mods were inspired by UT2004 maps.
