Your personal preference is not universal fact. Plenty of people love getting lost in a world. Your example is a AAA specifically designed to appeal to lowest common denominator (hence the game being the most streamlined and dumbed down out of all of the elder scrolls game). It is not a game you want to use as a perfect example that should be followed.
The kicker is that the "enforcement" is biased against you, so it's not a fair "treat others the way you'd want to be treated" game. Which means that if you snap back at them with the same rudeness, you're the only one getting clapped. "It's only okay when we do it" is how it goes over there and I can visibly see how stressful it's making you, seeing the double standard. I'd stay away, just for your own sake.
by that logic, why attempt to explain anything or have any kind of world building whatsoever? if anyone ask anything about the world and its logic, just tell them "shut the FUCK up its a video game bro LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"
Empty space is non-content.
That's why I think LT should abandon the open world idea and confine itself to just the one city. There's plenty of games that limit their setting in a similar way (like, say, Cyberpunk in recent memory).
My point precisely. No reason to add even more empty space when there's plenty already.
I don't know, having a rocket-powered wingsuit and the ability to summon a jet fighter anywhere sure helped a lot in Just Cause.
LOL, no. Not by Inno. She's no Tarn Adams.
My guess is money. I strongly believe Innoxia lost their charitable motivations not too long after they went on a clap-back war against anonymous users from 8chan, calling everyone "niqqers" and deleting posts criticizing them. Innoxia has pretty much donned the stereotypical "I care about what you want" facade while simultaneously kicking us all in the nuts/ovaries at every turn. The naive folk buy into it and write off every clear instance of backhanding as something understandable, but I distinctly remember the venom. I can relate to it, because I've been in that position before. That doesn't just go away; the poison doesn't just vanish, so I think Innoxia holds a vendetta against the blog commenters (probably, the community as a whole) and just extracts what they can from it since lustful primal urge is the only thing people primarily operate on in these situations. Throw a bit of red meat every so often and the dough keeps rolling for months, even if they explicitly say to the audience to pause all donations until updates come. I honestly feel a bit sorry for them, if this is true.
I've gotten a version of Helena that becomes Lustful Maiden, who never loses her virginity and yet uses every other orifice for pleasure. I think she will always wear slutty clothing, but that's just her personality. She's pretty much one of those "
During your romancing of Helena, you can go on a lunch date with Scarlett. At some point during these dates, you will learn that Helena has been insistent on pacifying Scarlett's aggressiveness by transforming them into an actual female. Scarlett will ask you if you agree and if you say you do, Scarlett will drink the potion and transform into a female.
It's a Pepsi and Coke debate at this point.
No, it's not the core of the issue. Your point is that the Arcane is overpowered, but that has nothing to do with whether it's plausible or consistent within the rules of the setting, WHICH ARE THAT THE ARCANE CAN DO ALMOST ANYTHING. It's magic, and it's not even especially OP magic, as far as fantasy properties go.
What did you think my point was?
I'm not arguing whether it's good storytelling; that has nothing to do with whether it violates the laws of the setting. The Arcane is an established part of the LT world, with its abilities and limits defined by the author. And it should explain every deviation from reality, considering that it's the sole cause of every deviation from reality, including the very existence of Lilith's realm.
Understandable. If someone does decide to do that, just know they'll have no problem finding their target. I wouldn't blame you, regardless of what happens. You don't control what people decide to do.
maybe if she allowed for some help beyond adding races. the line of volunteer stretched out beyond the doors.
Not really. I said there are too many tiles in the overworld map for Inno to ever populate with content, to which you responded that each tile is 22 km sq in size. It's more like a Pepsi and gravel argument. What you're saying is not even remotely relevant to what I'm saying.
No, my point is that if you're okay with the fact that the Arcane can do anything, then you have no basis for finding anything unbelievable, because anything can be justified with a simple "the Arcane did it".
That "stuffing a small area with content strains your suspension of disbelief". But at the same time, you think that the all-powerful Arcane is "a perfectly sensible explanation for any weirdness that goes on in the game". You have to choose one of the two, either there are things that strain your suspension of disbelief, or there's a perfectly sensible explanation for any weirdness. You can't have your cake and eat it too.
when your worldbuilding consists of "oooh the Arcane" yeah ide rather some explanations or justifications of gameplay aspects be omitted and have acceptable breaks from reality because you know videogame instead of even bringing the attention of the player to them and explain them in a convoluted manner. most RPGs dont even bother with the issue of clothing fitting you, some games you can go around massacring women for their string bikini armour to put on your hulk warrior and it suddenly transforms to full plate. the point is its a non issue made worse. if you can explain it and make it look logical in universe sure go for it but having a single "one size fits all" explanation and call it world building its generous to just call it plain dumb
Patience folks, it's a free game and someone's artistic vision (Although I do support your right to criticise the vision. I haven't done Nyan's further quest and will probably wait based on what I am hearing about it here till it gets an inevitable rework).How nice of you not to explain how this fix is performed. FYI, if you have a solution to a problem people are having post the entire solution. If you don't, it makes you look extremely suspect.
Well aren't we snarky? I told you how it was performed. I waited and it released memory. Iam on windows 10 using the win64 executable packaged by whoever posted the 3.13 version of the game here (Might have been Inno's package. I find the exe has worked better for me in the past because the package uses the JAVA version that Inno is developing on.)
okay, so you basically agreed with me. so when you're able to enchant clothing and amp it up to basically become nukes, thats fine. when the same magic is explained for why all clothes can fit all sizes, naw thats dumb! so again, no need for explaining anything, just say "its a vidya gam bruh".
That's my bad. But it is kinda hilarious that the solution to the memory leak is to stop playing the game and do something else while it runs in the background.
when its been about 2 years of this and we're still having this conversation, i think comments about Inno being in over her head are completely justified.
