Even if the common advice is to avoid spoilers, I’m glad you found your own way to enjoy it :)
I’m sure I could play it again myself and still enjoy the atmosphere, even if the discoveries weren’t new. Or maybe it would be fun to watch a stream of someone else playing for the first time instead!
For real. It’s an amazing game that just can’t be the same again once you know all its secrets.
I bought it for two of my friends, and they both ended up hating it lol. I don’t blame them, but I think it’s very much to do with the mentality of how you approach the experience.
One friend just got plain stuck and gave up. The other found it frustrating that they were doing the same thing several times over, and just wanted to rush as quickly as they could to make progress.
Personally, I enjoyed the slow pace of discovery. I loved that feeling of being a true explorer, discoving facets of lost civilisation. Watching in melancholic awe as a world crumbled around me. Finding just a small piece of new information was always a joy, and made it feel worthwhile to get there, even if I’d done 90% of the journey before.
Slowly getting richer in a game where the only currency is knowledge.
Hexagons are the bestagons, after all
So, Calyx or Graphene to ensure this AI garbage can be disabled, I suppose.
For you, maybe it was.
The point of good presentation and design cues is that they can make information instantly clear to almost everyone, no matter if their brain is the size of TON 618, or not.
The problem is the layout.
It needs horizontal dividing lines to show that the bodies are presented in pairs at the same scale.
When you first look at it, it seems like all six are in one picture at the same scale, then you start noticing things appearing twice, and think “hang on that’s not right” and work it out, but just two lines would have solved it immediately.
Design, people! Design!
I couldn’t give two hoots about this, but it’s probably a good thing for ‘normal’ people.
My dad for example can never find a file once it’s disappeared from the notifications, so he always just goes back and downloads the file again whenever he needs it, duplicating it over and over because he has no idea “where it went”
You answered your own question. If OP can’t use it, maybe they’ll buy a subscription, thinks Adobe.
Super scummy.
The tenants that moved out six months ago: “Well, shit!”
Uplifting story, though
Limited edition 😎
Haha yep. Not the support process you want. Glad you managed to let them eat some humble pie at least.
The support process you want is this: “We’ll make you a channel on our Slack, if you’ve got any issues you can talk with our devs direct!” - yes please!
Why solve something, when instead you can destroy it? 😼
Any company that hides their documentation has an awful product that they are actually embarrassed about, from a tech perspective. They are hiding it because they are afraid to show it.
I’ve seen this so many times, and it’s a big red flag.
These companies work on the basis of selling their product the old-fashioned way, directly to management with sales-people and business presentations and firm handshakes, and then once you’re sold then developers (which management doesn’t care about by the way) have to do the odious task of getting everything working against their terrible and illogical API. And when you need help implementing, then your single point of contact is one grumpy-ass old dev working in a basement somewhere (because they don’t care about their own devs either) and he’s terribly overstretched due to the number of other customers he’s also trying to help, because their implementation is so shitty.
Conversely, public documentation is a great sign that companies took a developer-led approach to designing their solution, that it will be easy to implement, that they respect the devs within their own company, and they will also respect yours.
When I am asked to evaluate potential solutions for a problem, Public docs is like the number one thing I care about! It’s just that significant.
Side story - I once worked with one of these shitty vendors, and learned from a tech guy I’d made friends with that the whole company was basically out of office on a company-paid beach holiday - EXCEPT for the dev team. Management, sales, marketing, finance, they all got a company trip, but the tech peeps had to stay at home. Tells you everything you need to know about their management attitude towards tech.
I had similar thoughts when I first discovered Pop!_OS. Just the name alone gave me vibes of some Fisher-Price toy operating system like it was meant for children, all cringe happy-smiley.
But I honestly suggest you get over your aversion to the name, and give it a try. It’s actually one of the most pleasant desktop experiences I’ve had with Linux, and it’s especially a treat on bare metal. Looks great, runs great and everything just works, including steam gaming.
You, SubjectNameHere, must be the pride of SubjectHometownHere
If you cover up the bottom part of the jaw, the face looks like a long-nosed rodent with a toothy overbite, just being very chill looking out the window.
Kinda cute actually.
But nice yawn too XD
Interesting :) And yes, for me it also became easy to switch once I was aware of the truth of what I was looking at.
If you look directly at the can you can see it as white, but if you look elsewhere and the can is only in your peripheral vision it seems to always be interpreted as red.
What don’t you like about Signal?
