  • I haven’t booted up OBS in a few months now. It would be too much work for me to do. Make my hair look nice, make sure my lighting setup is just right, clean my room, set up my camera angle and then make sure that everything on stream is appropriate. Not copyrighted and all that stuff.

    I think about it sometimes, but ultimately I might end up just doing it for fun on a self-hosted stream or something like that if I ever have time. I’ve been on a whole own my own digital footprint kick lately.

    I’ve actually attempted live streaming. It totally sucks the joy out of sitting in front of a computer and zoning out playing your game. You start to go “Oh no I can’t play this game cuz I’m playing it on stream.”

    I wasn’t majorly successful but I still made affiliate and had some regular watchers. The pressure to create content and be entertaining and stay engaged was too much for me and continue doing it all for the paltry sums that I was getting.

    I could also feel the pressure to become someone I’m not to reach more people. Something I refused to do. In the end though I made enough money streaming to make up for all the equipment I bought for it. I ran out of real time to stream when I got a new job that demanded more time from me. I am making so much more money so much faster by just clocking in and out every day and i feel like I’m building my skills in the field I’m in instead of making me hate my entertainment options.




  • I want more realistic enemy behaviors in general. Most animal enemies in games react exactly the same. Roar, run at you, bite.

    It’d be great if in for example Skyrim, instead of the wolves just beelining straight for you. They were howling and running alongside you in the woods. Stalking you and waiting for the chance for the whole group to strike at once. If you try to go for the wolves, the ones you run after would distract you while the others try to get you in the back. It could be exhilarating but no, we’ve just decided to make games fucking boring I guess


  • It used to be a lot more viable to publish a multiplayer title and have a good player base. Nowadays, player bases have been captured by large live service models. Games like tremulous where you essentially play as an alien ant and gain points by building buildings and killing human soldiers to evolve into a bigger aliens. There was also the human Marine team who basically played like starcraft Marines.

    It was essentially first person team-based starcraft. And it was amazing. And nobody’s playing this shit anymore. It’s kind of a shame.





  • This fixes it instantly every time for me. Ignore everybody else. When you get that cramp start moving your foot in the opposite direction pointing your toes towards your knee and stretch out the back of your ankle. Instant cramp relief everytime.

    If you have cramping often like this then maybe dedicate yourself to some hamstring stretches.





  • You know what’s funny is the story happened that way not because it was the only way it could happen. They originally had Jesse pinkman’s death planned for the end of season 1 he was supposed to be killed by Walt. But he ended up being a fan favorite character and they kept him on.
