Yuki

@Yuki Link Between Worlds.

StrixVaria

Like I said, though, I'm way overleveled.

Kevin van der Velden

4:01 PM

@Yuki Link Between Worlds... sounds like a game I should buy

Unionhawk

@KevinvanderVelden It's like ALttP, but new... I guess

(inb4: A Link to the Past)

Ben Brocka

@StrixVaria It's not. You can afford to rent all of them very early on. Paying for them outright takes longer, but is easy to do before finishing the game

Kevin van der Velden

@Unionhawk I just googled it

user15026

I hope they don't use the rented stuff mechanic in any other games, I don't find it fun

Unionhawk

I figured some other people would continue the "ALttP?" trend

SaintWacko

4:02 PM

@AshleyNunn Yeah, I didn't feel like that added anything

Ben Brocka

I found it interesting but...not very relevant, since you just rented all of them within a couple hours and slowly bought them. You DID need to own them outright to upgrade them though, which made it a bit more interesting

user15026

@saintwacko it takes away some of the fun of exploring.

Ben Brocka

I liked finding the little octopus things

@AshleyNunn I thought it handled exploring very well. The rented items weren't all you needed, so there was still plenty of stuff to get and explore later, but you start off much more open than any other zelda save Zelda 1

user15026

@benbrocka I tend to get annoyed without clear direction on where to go. I am weird, I like linear games.

StrixVaria

I expect to have a lot of trouble with LBW because of its non-linearity.

Skyrim is about as non-linear as I can handle (where you always have something you could be doing quest-wise but you're free to ignore it).

Wipqozn

4:06 PM

@StrixVaria The death penalty in LBW is irrelevant because you'll probably never die.

The game is really easy. Fun, but easy.

Unionhawk

Yeah, ALBW gives you "Okay, you have to do these 4 dungeons, I really don't care what order, also there are these other things"

Ben Brocka

LBW doesn't have too many non-linear issues really. Since order is mostly irrelevant and it's painfully obvious where you need to go it's not a big deal

Unionhawk

@Wipqozn Are you kidding? I died like, 4 times to that turtle dude... >_>

Ben Brocka

The only two times I got stuck were when I couldn't find the pegasus boots (which I missed hours and hours earlier) and when I didn't think to use the wall painting things

Unionhawk

damn you @Wipqozn

Wipqozn

4:07 PM

@Unionhawk Shuuuuuuuuuuun

Ben Brocka

I died twice, I forget the first one, and the other was in the battle tower thing at it's hardest difficulty

user15026

@benbrocka I tend to get lost and such a lot. And die. I suspect I am not as good at these things as most of you.

Unionhawk

Battle tower wasn't too bad for me.

user15026

But I am having fun anyhow.

Ben Brocka

Hardest thing in the game is the absolutely dreadful baseball game that sucks and I hate

OrigamiRobot

4:08 PM

@AshleyNunn I hated it so much.

Wipqozn

That baseball game is the worst.

The battle tower was fun, but I wish it was more difficult.

Unionhawk

Kevin van der Velden

Baseball is the worst

Just, generic baseball is the worst, don't now about the LBW one

SaintWacko

@BenBrocka I didn't get the pegasus boots until after I beat the game

Unionhawk

Kevin van der Velden

Q: How do I speed up egg hatching?

Some Pokemon eggs take many thousands of in-game steps to hatch. I'm only interested in breeding in late parts of the game, mostly after I have beaten the League. Since I've already done virtually all the things I wanted to do, I only generate a minimum of steps. Is there some way of speeding ...

@GraceNote It's actually an interesting game in its own right, not just a trollish clone

@JasonBerkan we had that last week and it shut everything down for two days because the snow was basically ice

Jason Berkan

@spugsley I still cannot wrap my head around that. We had 4 or 5 inches yesterday - whiteout conditions - roads covered in packed down snow/ice, and nothing is shut down. I went out twice last night after supper.

Here it's raining all the damn time.

Jason Berkan

@MartinSojka We've actually had a normal-ish winter, which means not that much snow (heck, my climate is closer to desert than anything else). That also means the farmers probably won't have a good crop, due to the lack of spring runoff.

Jay Hanlon on February 13, 2014

Two weeks ago, we announced the public launch of Stack Overflow in Portuguese, our first-ever non-English Stack Overflow community. Which raises one very obvious question:

Have we lost our minds?

Wasn’t the whole point of Stack Overflow to aggregate as much developer knowledge as possible in one place? To get all the potential solutions together, and provide one canonical set of answers?

We are aware that, “Let’s all try speaking different languages!” hasn’t always worked out for the best. …

Hackathon

A hackathon (also known as a hack day, hackfest or codefest) is an event in which computer programmers and others involved in software development, including graphic designers, interface designers and project managers, collaborate intensively on software projects. Occasionally, there is a hardware component as well. Hackathons typically last between a day and a week. Some hackathons are intended simply for educational or social purposes, although in many cases the goal is to create usable software. Hackathons tend to have a specific focus, which can include the programming language used, ...
