6:00 PM

@BenBrocka It still isn't from what I hear. It caps at like some internal resolution and just stretches to your screen.

There's supposedly a mod to fix that but I haven't bothered yet.

Ben Brocka

yeah you need dsfix

FAE

@BenBrocka what

StrixVaria

It still looks good TBH.

Ben Brocka

@FAE jp indies have an unfortunate tendancy to be a little off technically

FAE

@BenBrocka Ah, gotcha.

Ben Brocka

6:01 PM

game runs perfectly smooth though, and it's a super weird sort of tearing that is extremely consistent and surprisingly easy to ignore because of that

FAE

Weird.

Ben Brocka

Now console bioshock infinite on the other hand, how did people play that

I tried it from PS+ and it gives me a damn headache

FAE

One of the things I hate the most is when a game opens up with a cinematic before you can even start or touch the options and it doesn't have subtitles.

GnomeSlice

@BenBrocka Croixleur?

Ben Brocka

I wish Steam had some universal settings thing where you could pick things like res, subtitles, CONTROLLER INPUT, and games use those settings

also save file locations. FFS put them in one location damn it

@GnomeSlice yeah

Origami Robot

6:03 PM

@GnomeSlice DID IT?

GnomeSlice

@OrigamiRobot Haven't tried it yet; I am applying for jobs.

Ben Brocka

Doesn't show in the video at all, not sure if that's a plus or not. Hope not too many people discount it just because of that

FAE

@BenBrocka One thing the 360 had that I liked was an option to set whether or not you wanted the Y-axis camera flipped for games in its profile settings. I could set my preference there and it'd use that for all games I played.

GnomeSlice

The tearing in Croixleur is really annoying

Shame they didn't fix it in the updated Steam version

I hope they bring all the new stuff to the other version as well.

Ben Brocka

@GnomeSlice you get used to it in normal gameplay, at least I did

not sure what the deal is with the tearing, super weird engine or what

Chippies

6:04 PM

4 mario kart toys from happy meals acquired, 3 more left to go

FAE

@BenBrocka this made me think of what you tweeted last night

StrixVaria

@Chippies Are you buying happy meals without a child present?

That's creepy.

Ben Brocka

@FAE I have no idea if I prefer inverted or not or if it varies by game by I always know when it feels wrong

Chippies

@StrixVaria I uhh, have often been mistaken to be 14, does that count?

badp

@FAE Remove fingers, take cat, drop on floor, repeat as many times as needed

FAE

6:05 PM

@BenBrocka For me, it varies by POV (first or third) and platform (PC or console).

Chippies

@BenBrocka some games don't tear or tear very minimally even without vsync

SaintWacko

@FAE Hey, this looks like what my kitten does

Ben Brocka

@StrixVaria mcdonald's doesn't care, they know how many people buy 'em for the toys

@FAE I generally want the camera to move in the direction I move a thing. Sometimes this seems to be called inverted sometimes it does not

badp

GnomeSlice

@StrixVaria Lots of adults buy happy meals if they want something small.

Chippies

6:06 PM

@BenBrocka toys are he only thing that is worth buying the happy meal for

GnomeSlice

@Chippies what

FAE

@BenBrocka Yeah, the inconsistency is a bit maddening sometimes.

GnomeSlice

As an interesting anecdote, we actually had to implement the optional checkbox for Child's Play after they told us that it was in violation of their terms/service (i.e. requiring a Child's Play donation with purchase vs. Humble's slider or an optional donation amount). We had several conversations with them to come up with the opt-in solution.

Months later when Humble Store launched, they give a % of all their store purchases to Child's Play and other charities without an opt-out. I assume CPC changed their policy or made an exception.

Chippies

@GnomeSlice double cheeseburger + drink + small fries is cheaper than happy meal, iirc

GnomeSlice

Humble is a bunch of clowns

Frank

6:07 PM

@FAE If Bela did this, I wouldn't actually mind. More often, though, she's nibbling on papers on my desk, and keeping an eye on me, because she knows she's not supposed to do that.

Ben Brocka

@FAE Yeah that's why I never touch that until I decide the game is doing it the way I dont' like

StrixVaria

@BenBrocka Up/down inversion is generally labeled consistently. Left/right inversion is infuriatingly inconsistent across games, though.

Ben Brocka

@GnomeSlice the mandatory donation thing was always bullshit

@StrixVaria yeah it's always horizontal that's confusing

badp

@GnomeSlice They seem to be still donating money to Child's Play?

Ben Brocka

and vertical is usually not inverted (anymore), horiz varies

GnomeSlice

6:09 PM

@badp Who?

badp

@GnomeSlice Humble/Wolfire

GnomeSlice

@badp Yeah, because they don't have an opt-out.

Ben Brocka

at least PC games are almost always correct horiz/vertically. I think the extra directness of mouse manipulation helps it feel more intuitive

@Chippies I enjoy this game a lot.

I have it on 3 platforms now.

Chippies

@FAE nice, I've heard good things about it

GnomeSlice

@FAE Have you played any of their other games?

FAE

6:14 PM

@GnomeSlice Not yet I don't think

GnomeSlice

@FAE You should.

FAE

@GnomeSlice I should.

GnomeSlice

@FAE store.steampowered.com/sub/26391

FAE

@BenBrocka experience with midrolls from a viewer POV or a LPer POV?

Ben Brocka

@FAE mostly stat-wise since I'd only be enabling them on the top % of videos so regular viewers would almost never see them

Curious as to why YT is even suggesting them since retention is usually pretty bad after the first few minutes

FAE

6:19 PM

@BenBrocka Ah okay. I watch a bunch of people on blip.tv and they do midrolls there.

Ben Brocka

average view duration is currently 4 minutes 13 seconds or 26%

GnomeSlice

@BenBrocka ouch

FAE

Most of the people I watch who do vids there take them into consideration for their editing so there's either a proper breaking point and some even do little bumper splashes, which makes it less jarring.

Ben Brocka

@GnomeSlice most people click out in the first minute, seems to be pretty common

agent86

probably similar to the way ads work on our pages. the ad above the fold generally far outperforms the ads further down the page.

GnomeSlice

6:21 PM

Happy Nunavut Day everyone

agent86

just between the top two ads on one category, the performance is double for the first what the performance is for the second.

GnomeSlice

apparently that's a thing

Ben Brocka

yeah, that's why I'm not sure why YT is pushing them so hard

FAE

@GnomeSlice Huh.

agent86

well, I mean, even half the performance of the first is greater than nothing.

Ben Brocka

6:22 PM

and I mean this hard:

Nunavut Day

Nunavut Day is a public holiday in the Canadian territory of Nunavut. Origin On July 9, 1993, following the passing of the 1982 plebiscite on the question of the division of the Northwest Territories, the Parliament of Canada passed the Nunavut Act, establishing the territory of Nunavut, to come into operation sometime in the future. On April 1, 1999, Nunavut became a legally distinct territory from the Northwest Territories, coming into being as a territory on this date. The following year, in 2000, 'Nunavut Day' was celebrated on April 1. However, it was felt that the 1993 Nunavut Lan...

adsense is constantly saying "hey, on some of your pages you have fewer than the max number of ads. don't you want more???"

GnomeSlice

6:23 PM

What did you think of They Breathe?

Ben Brocka

but presumably they wouldn't push it if one-time adrev weren't worth the retention drop, but I dunno. Always struck me as my least favorite kind of ad, not counting product placement/etc

@GnomeSlice loved it

agent86

when it comes to google, chances are good they have enough data to tell if something is likely to make a lot of money.

GnomeSlice

@BenBrocka Really? I never really gave it a second glance, it looked like a mobile 'climb as high as you can' game.

Ben Brocka

The visuals and screenshots do a very poor job of representing it. It's pretty unique and hard to explain though

It's very simple but it's a horror game

@badp I just went to Hawaii. My allowable quota of plane flights per year is complete.

badp

It's a flight search engine.

It has worst case performance that's better than Google's.

StrixVaria

@Wipqozn Actually that one dupe vote looks pretty accurate to me.

IMO it should be closed, but as a dupe instead of its current state.

Powerlord

@JasonBerkan It's a blind chipmunk.

I'd agree with that. It's a good example of Good Subjective, IMO. It's similar to asking an MtG play question on B&CG.

StrixVaria

@Wipqozn The comment was hidden behind the "more comments" thing, but it got auto-deleted when I closed as dupe for real.

Wipqozn

I went afk after making my comment, so it must not have been made yet.

SaintWacko

@StrixVaria I feel like there should be something where that sort of comment can't get hidden

StrixVaria

@SaintWacko It's obsolete once the question is closed as dupe because the dupe message is a much more in-your-face link to the same thing.

Ktash

@StrixVaria Didn't you say it was hidden behind more comments before it was closed, though?

StrixVaria

@SaintWacko Oh true. I guess you could make a feature request to have it be some kind of special comment that floats to the top? I don't think they'd go for that, though. It could be abusable.

Almost every single time, they’ve accidentally backed out of the movie or picture two seconds later, because they touched the bottom of the screen. Because the bottom of the screen is where you hold your phone! Why would you put capacitive buttons there, and not even label them?

@Wipqozn People make serious comments like that, that's the kind of shit my uncle would say. Look at the comment he made on it as well; I'm pretty sure he thinks the OP is talking about real livestock.

Kevin van der Velden

@Wipqozn yeah as @Gnome said, there are a bunch of people like that around

Wipqozn

@GnomeSlice Yes, they do, but considering it's just tossed in there in some long ass post about rising livestock in reply to a game I believe it's a joke.

> if you don't want the FDA to shut down your farm and confiscate all of your property... and fine you out the wazoo). In my state you have a cap on how many dozens of eggs you can sell weekly without having the "suits" come in and strip search your business and give your animals a proctology exam... literally i'm not kidding

Not the only "HALP HALP BIG GOBERMNENT IS OPRESSING ME" comment

And I thought I was an idiot when I answered a question for Minecraft instead of Terraria.

Kevin van der Velden

@RonanForman fortunately there are different levels of idiot

Q: Do Frenzys/cookie multiplyers add to the amount of cookies Wrinklers drop?

Okay this is quite tricky. But, for example if I clicked on a Golden Cookie and got a x7 multiplyer, and (while the x7 multiplyer is active) pop a wrinkler, does the ammount of cookies I would regularly gain increase by 7x?

Yuuki

@KevinvanderVelden Well I'm sorry if I don't want my eggs to come with free samples of salmonella.

Kevin van der Velden

@Yuuki also I'd prefer my cow to be free of mad cow disease, just... have that on the side please

btw... 20x20 feet? yards? acres? 400 square feet is hardly enough space for even chickens. And my ratio of 3/3/20 is for one acre... 43,000 square feet, which is 100 times the space (I think) you have. — user81252 36 mins ago

Origami Robot

LOL WUT

GnomeSlice

Let's see...

Ugh fuck this game

Origami Robot

@GnomeSlice THIS ONE HAD TWO PROPERTIES THAT MADE IT A LOT EASIER

GnomeSlice

@OrigamiRobot it's narrow

Origami Robot

1) YOU HAVE 5 OUTPUTS AND 5 DESTINATIONS. THIS TELLS YOU THAT EACH OUTPUT WILL HAVE IT'S OWN OUTPUT AND THE TWO DEVICES WILL NEVER INTERACT WITH ONE ANOTHER

2) THE 2ND ROW IS 4 TILES WIDE SO YOU ARE REQUIRED TO MERGE AT LEAST TWO LINES BY THAT POINT

@OrigamiRobot ...huh, I never thought of it that way

Origami Robot

@GnomeSlice THAT CUTS DOWN THE COMPLEXITY BY ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE

GnomeSlice

This is complexity: the game

I don't even know why i'm still playing this

It looked easier when I bought it
