@Taisho I didn't know Pizza the Hutt had a daughter.
@Tonepoet no, that's C.C's daughter
@Memor-X I didn't know Pizza the Hutt had a daughter with C.C. =P
@Tonepoet no, it was Cheese-kun
we all know that after R2 Lelouch took a job at Pizza Hut as Cheese-kun
@Memor-X Remind me to watch Code Geass someday, after I watch all of the other anime I plan to watch but never do. XD
@Tonepoet remember to watch Code Geass someday
04:30
Heh.
04:44
the art style is so godawful that I couldn't watch it even if I slightly wanted to

A: Do teleportation spells conserve momentum?

Dale MThere is no velocity in D&D 5e and therefore no acceleration, momentum or kinetic energy. "Speed" is a resource you expend to change your position and "movement" is the act of doing this. If you are not expending speed you are not moving. Similarly, arrows and cannonballs take no time to move f...

never thought about velocity conservation during teleportation on a planetary scale before
@Taisho depends on the set of physics governing it

Q: How to communicate to my co-workers that they don't have to say "bless you" when I sneeze?

arminbI am slightly annoyed by my co-workers who say "bless you" everytime I sneeze. It feels awkward to me to reply with a "thank you". I usually only thank people when they really helped me out in a matter and that's also when I expect other people to thank me. In my opinion blessing someone after h...

08:10
Hii
@Taisho bless you is apparently short form of god bless you and I'd rather not say either but turkish trads kinda make me say something and I'll not say 'Cok yasa' so eh

08:31
@Taisho but there are many fan art of C.C. that are quite good quality
yea, need to watch Code Geass someday
after i've cleared my backlog down to low-danger degree
 
1 hour later…
09:36
@Avery I just never got into the habit of blessing anyone who sneezes or thanking anyone who blesses me, and it has never been a problem or even an annoyance for me
one time I think, maybe twice but it wasn't memorable then, somebody said something about me being rude, and I was like huh wut? when was I rude? They said I sneezed, someone blessed me, I didn't respond and that's rude
I decided not to respond to that explanation either, and my life has been fine since
@Gao they need to hire fan artists and redo the entire show then
also CC is Creative Commons

@Gao when was your last backup?

12:55
@Hakase nothing much. yourself?
@Hakase I'm watching a 7 hour youtube video, wbu
specifically 7 hours and 38 mins
@Avery what video?
joel's HL2 video
@Avery Half-Life 2 Lets Play?
kiinda
honestly you could cut out all game audio and video and I could just listen to joel for 7 hours
13:15
Hey ^^
hi
13:35
I've been reading lots of developer stories and I think I haven't slept enough, and I'm feeling kinda fucky in the head
gonna take it easy for an hour or two
I'm gonna rewatch Tanaka -kun sometime
all female characters are best girls
David Fincher praise is on the rise these days
I guess his movies are alright
I've been trying to get into the cinematography critic and appreciation mindset but I don't think it's my cupa tea
there are some filming techniques I could appreciate, but most of it is invisible to me
guess I'm more intuitive in this regard and care about aesthetics and mood more than movie making technicalities
@Avery I've watched some 3-4-5 hour no-commentary game playthroughs in the last few months
I did that too
I hear there are thousands of new games released on steam each month or year, idk
they make it sound like it's really overwhelming
I haven't logged into steam for a year maybe
@Hakase year
so my explore queue is probably fucked
I've read there are lots of copypaste asset-flip games which don't really count but idk if that number includes them
and there are tons of games I'm not interested in for reasons of fun and for research
still I'd have to go through all of them sometime when I get deeper into game dev
might need to write some scripts for speeding up that process
every time I think about it I get mortified for a second

@ave check this out sometime maybe myanimelist.net/anime.php?id=30346
now I'm hearing about stuff that happened in 2014 and think it was like 10 years ago
@Hakase ok that's kinda cool
14:16
u r kinda cool
ty you too
oh shit conspiracy theory believers could be a result of a mental deviation
BUT MUH FROGS
honestly it's like talking to a person who has a part of their head visibly missing
it's not even like mentally challenged people who can still grasp these concepts eventually
this could be a non-fixable issue for them
ugh
I wanna watch something nice today
what's up with steven universe airing schedule
there were no episodes all summer, then there were 5 and now nothing again
adventure time is also doing a weird thing
well anyway I still got lots of anime from the backlog to watch
not super many titles, but if you consider the total watch time, it's a whole lot
@Hakase h i a t u s
14:27
goddamn videogames
I tell ya
@Taisho I like this one. I should find the author
I hate it when games are PC only or like
they are very simple yet they don't have mobile versions
I want to play gta v rogue legacy on my phone dammit
apparently it has a vita release
you could try some emulator then
idk if there are any vita emulators for phones
huh
rogue legacy looks like terraria without all the mining and building
it's really fun.
your message right now I can only see in a cartoony way like a hungry guy sees his fella as a tasty fried chicken
it's basically drugs to me right now
I can't allow myself to entertain this idea
I just got out of several games
that fortnite battle royale
you can't win it if you don't have a low ping
fuckers will snipe you from a mile away
14:39
OK one thing I like about this game
tf2 just had an update and changes lots of rules for old items
it literally has no effect on gameplay at all.
Just the ending princess/prince is of same gender (identity) as your character's gender (identity).
it's a cool thing games do that these days
I really like the soundtrack though
oooh fuuuck I just went through my soundtracks too
guess I'm adding this game to two of my lists

ok jesus I'll play it later
I think im gonna sleep soon
15:03
Aztec matric
Even back then they had an excellent Aztech
no idea but you had me at "it's really fun"
I mean I suck at it

Q: Do universe 6 saiyans transform more easily than universe 7 saiyans?

PabloSo far we've seen 3 saiyans from universe 6 with an important role in Dragon Ball Super. In a short period of time, less than 48 hours for Kale and Caulifla if I recall correctly, and less than a year for Kyabe, they've mastered more than one transformation. Kale mastered super saiyan berserker a...

Q: is super saiyan green an official name or not?

PabloAccording to the Dragon Ball Wikia, this transformation of Kale is called "super saiyan green". http://dragonball.wikia.com/wiki/Super_Saiyan_Green Is this an official name or it was made up by fans?

I'm playing Broforce with my bro
You don't have to be good at it and everythinf explodes anyway, so I like it
we finished it with my bros like 3-4 times
its so fun
ime it's one of the best multiplayer platformers
the "story" mode of Super Smash Bros Brawl was excellent too
@Hakase correction this game sucks nand I just removed it
I like games that tell a story (VNs, HL, bioshock etc).
and platformers. and tetris.
also my ex just got grandmaster on TGM1 so yay
I like when there's a whole world to discover, preferably not in too linear a fashion
Star Ocean III looks great
15:27
oh dang I want to play hl2dm now
(I'm going through my games list)
@Morwenn yeah, I love that too
yay /o/
I kinda loved pretty much all GTA games, Saints Row games, also Borderlands 2+TPS, because they had a nice balance between "non-linear" and "shit what do I do now"
I also loved the 2013 tomb raider, even though it wasn't very very non-linear, it allowed a nice amount of exploration on the linear story.
After story ends it's pretty non-linear but eh
HL games are kinda like that too
I almost don't play games anymore, and I'm so bad in 3D environments
yeah I don't play much either, though I watch a ton of vinesauce stuff (mostly joel... he's kinda cute tbh) and recently started playing danganronpa
I tend to enjoy a specific genre then hate it then love something else than hate it and etc etc
how don't you play much with a thousand game library? :o
15:35
I didn't log into my account in like a month
I just logged in like a week ago to farm the cards
and I logged in like a couple times during summer at most
Last time I really got to play games for hours I played Aura Kingdom, but I stopped the day I started my job
I used to love diablo 3
Well, there are still a few smartphone games that I play, but not that much either
And Pokémon Go is a different beast anyway
15:37
which is ironically not a steam game
I have like 2500 hours in it
yeah it's a lot
I used to login at 1pm and play until like 6-7am
yeah that's >100 days
yeah, >100 days if you don't sleep or don't take any breaks
and the time spent on menus etc aren't counted either
that's some kind of impressive
15:39
I'm kinda disappointed in myself
why?
because apparently i spent 1/60 of my life playing diablo.
isn't it time you spent having fun?
I guess
I could maybe spend it doing something more useful though, idk
I feel some guilt over it
15:42
meh, you'll always have to do useful thing and it's always that fulfilling anyway, so don't be guilty for having had your fun :p
@Taisho cuute
Cute :3

Q: Help me find an anime movie about a girl who eats off a man's finger

Mari Chilaiaall i remember is that it's pretty old, and the girl in the movie eats someone's finger off, this someone being a politician or something. then they wait for her to poop it out. very disturbing as a child.

Aaaaawww :3
update to this:
5 hours ago, by Avery
oh dang I want to play hl2dm now
I bought it to a friend, we played together.
first time playing it since forever but I did good I guess
I forgot how much I loved this game.
We played Starwhal with my brother
The fuck is that game even
@Morwenn googles that's... a weird concept
20:40
it's like a vaporwave game x)
> STARWHAL: Just the Tip
alright then
doesn't sound fun from the title but eh
guess it's a matter of personal preference
ok I watched some youtube videos and this seems fun.
it's just really dumb, but totaly enjoyable when you're two and have no idea what to do
guess I like just the tip
you don't have much control though
xD
 
1 hour later…
21:46
@Avery what? why?
@Hakase well I was sarcastic
ish
It's too hard for me
@Avery I played probably 15k hours total in diablo 2 and 8k in cs1.6, then also 6k in team fortress 2
guilt syndrome is very real
a few years ago I had real anxiety if I didn't feel like I was playing different new games instead of the same ones
these days I kinda relaxed about it
now I spend too much time on reddit but my guilt is eased by the fact that I've filtered out the most useless subs and I'm at least learning new things all the time instead of just reading dumb memes and cat pics
there's no cure for this unfortunately, I always end up obsessing over something for a period of time, just because who I am as a person
it's hard not to get into something as deep as I can, if it doesn't really hurt but might entertain or teach me enough
@Hakase same same same
Imagine if ended up ovsessing over someone for a period of time x)
21:54
like I used to read lots of scifi from the last few high school classes until the second year of uni, and I've read like 400 stories, novels and novelettes, and then something clicked and I felt it was enough of that, so now I don't read that kind of literature anymore
@Morwenn yea I don't think I could cope with that well if I was younger
people change and that's ok ^^
then I used to watch a movie or two every day during the middle ages of uni
tastes even more so
so I've seen pretty much every movie worth watching (>7.5/10)
I don't stress out about that coz it's hard to get addicted to "repeating content" like with a game
@Morwenn well honeymoon period or whatever is a thing
21:56
then there was a bit of listening to a lot of music for a year or two
now I just kinda don't listen to music at all
sometimes I put on some osts from games and anime for maybe 20 minutes but not for the entire days like I used to
@Avery true
I always listen to music
and having had these experienced made me feel like I should just relax about the guilt and dive deep into whatever new obsession I get into next time
if I do something superficially, I won't be able to appreciate it as fully, and it would also gimme some guilt about that
I just open up soundcloud's discover tab as a non-repetitive source of noise
I often listen to a same track 5~6 times in a row before switching
soundcloud is super bad here, there's only the kinds of music I have no passion about
and google play too and everything else
I think this has to do with regional licensing for music streaming
last time I explored music, it was specific bands' bandcamp pages
22:01
@Morwenn I sometimes do like 20-30 in a row
but there's no convenient explore queues like in soundcloud
sometimes I wonder if I'm on the (autism) spectrum, like, not like xd memes or insulty or anything, like, I genuinely wonder if I am
I show so many signs
@Avery I often listen to tracks around 10min long, so 20~30 times in a row would be a bit difficult
everyone is on one end of spectrum or another
just enjoy your corner of it
It's not a corner, it' a full hallway \o/
With shittons of doors
22:04
if you have time and money (idk if it's free) you could get a sesh and find out exactly where your location on it is, maybe doc will tell you something comforting about it
I've kinda learned to deal with my shit on my own
eh it's like 150try/30mins
A sesh?
@Morwenn session
OK y'all, I'm off to sleep. Nighty night to everyone!
nite
I just woke up tho after like 5 hours of sleep
gotta get back but idk if I can
@HAK YOU ARE ADVISED TO SLEEP EARLY ITS LIKE 1AM
22:08
Nighty
ye but I can't make myself
do yourself then
I'll be just lying in bed and lying to myself for hours, thinking about shit
I'll have to stand up and write down new ideas a lot
it's just not a thing that happens
I have this weird trick of sleeping easily but I won't talk about it
I didn't work on my projects at all over the weekend
22:10
because it's not painless and thinking too much will make me sleep
oh I could put on some slow political debate or some 90's history channel broadcast
that's like get asleep in 2 minutes pill right there
except it hurts my ears and cheeks when I wake up in 2-3 hours from my headphones all tangled around my head
guess I'm sorting my gamedev notes then
and browsing gamedev subs for ideas
what kind of ideas?
I can't run away from gamedev
Gameplay ideas? Implementation ones?
only gameplay
I can implement things myself
22:13
I suck at it and I stop and I get pulled riight back in
people use such random bullshit for imlementation it's like they hate programming
@Avery like me 4 years ago
The fun part is that I'd more easily read tech articles about how to implement some interesting algorithms used in gamedev :p
I mean I've started 4 years ago actively obsessing about it like that
since probably 6 months ago I just kinda calmed down and decided to plan and prepare before coding anything
now I have a huge book of design notes and ideas
and that's how you take 10 years before actually completing a project x)
no problem with that if it's what you enjoy doing all day every day
I'd rather spend 10 years like this than 10x 1 year making small games I don't care about
22:15
@Morwenn but that's the proper Enterprise:tm: way to do it
@Morwenn I used to read a bit of those but then I realized it's not gonna be useful to me ever coz I"m not doing a game in that genre or on that platform or in that age
@Hakase honestly I'd recommend the latter
@Hakase I'd probably spend a few years making a big think I won't care about anymore and consider to be terrible in the end x)
I'm not even using those programming languages
22:17
@Avery Nah, we only do agile
@Avery tried it, 2 years of complete bs gives me severe guilt about that
Which means most things we implement weren't thought through because nobody had any idea we would have to implement such a thing hen starting x)
I get what you mean
I like completing small projects, because at least they're eventually complete
I've read a shitton of developer guides and advice in gamedev, and I think I've got what works for me
basically I break down my big game idea into small parts and think of them as complete portions of a whole
like separate mechanics
22:19
Um
You're doing it wrong
movement, melee combat, ranged, projectile movement and effects, crafting, building or whatever
I'm doing it the only way I'm doing it
otherwise I'm not really doing anything at all
If you do it this way it won't work for years and you'll lose interest and even if you finish it you'll have no idea if people will like it or not
that's like 6 years of "development" experience :p
my latest small project was TDD all the way x)
mutters about minimum viable products and stuff
@Morwenn tdd?
22:21
Test-Driven Development
@Avery yes yes, that's like my first 3 years
I've stressed about that a lot too, I know what I'm about
You write tests first, then complete your code until every test passes
I've already lost interest several times by then and dropped and returned to it
I still can't stop returning to it
@Morwenn ok that's some interesting approach
this is something I gotta do
22:22
And it makes sense
it's easy to do TDD when you know everything about what you wanna make
but I don't
@Avery It's boring af, unmotivating and requires you to come up with a decent interface, hopefully mature enough, before writing actual code
Fortunately I was reimplementing an existing component with only a few differences, so I could steal tests beforehand
it's for a large part also a journey of figuring out what I want my game to look like in whole and in parts, coz I didn't know most of it from the start
Fact: most of my opinions suck
suck for whom
22:24
Fact: most of everybody's opinions suck anyway :p
I'm just explaining what works for me
I guess (reply to Morwenn)
most other people already told me I'm a fucking failure of a game developer and should just stop now
yea sure lemme just delete my 8 years of passion
the most important part in the end is having your fun for some time, no matter whether you give all up in the end
No like, honestly Ive no idea where you're at and what you're doing
And honestly i think that we all have some projects we obsess over
22:26
there are lots of people who are fine with making a much smaller game than what they had in mind originally, and then it's not fun to play and sure as shit doesn't sell any copies coz it's objectively bad in all aspects, but those people find happiness and comfort in completing that
they're like aliens or something, idk what's wrong with them
that's like 50% of the game developers out there these days
I've had little idea about what I want my game to look like 2 years ago
now I've got such a clear vision that even if it's not complete yet, I can't just throw it away
Is a project worth pursuing when it eats your life? :o
every day I daydream and get distracted by things, and I just get new ideas about what I want my story to have or how the magic works or what interesting things happen to characters
I could write a book, or make a movie, or a devoid of story and dialogues purely mechanical game, but I wanna make a game out of it
coz I sure as shit won't sell a book or find money to film any movies, you know
and I absolutely want the interactive aspect of games
no other medium can bring that
there has never been a project in my life that I've spent so much time thinking about that kept bringing me so much joy and entertainment, and make me explore new things about games in general and aspects of game development
now I know things about worldbuilding, creating interesting characters, writing dialogue and stories
exploring new or old aesthetics that invoke some emotions is always an enjoyable experience
finding new games to take inspiration from is always fun
yea I'm not stopping now :p
you really do have a passion, that's cool ^^
22:35
I'd say the most important thing which makes it a real passion is I always have a lot of different areas of life, entertainment, human psychology and game development topics to look at, that I can never get bored with some of then and not find some other ones which I am interested in exploring again
if there were like 3-4 things I bet I'd be constantly sick and bored of them all
right
and gameplay needs to be great otherwise the experience won't feel as smooth
hope this gives you some ideas for similar things to do
nah, I can't do big projects, my motivation would just falter before having even started anything remotely significant
I'm still gonna need to write a coherent backbone of a story for my game, but I don't think I'd ever find the passion to write an entire book of it
book writing is like a whole profession
there are writers and script doctors n shit
so I'll just do short basic stories and expand on them as much as my skill and interest lets me

Q: Whats the name of the Robot Anime show?

zidane_143Hi I can't remember the name of a show I was hoping someone could help me. The show consists of battling robots. The robot battles are done in teams. There is an episode where one of the robots "evolves" into a Red Robot with a hoverboard. Anime characters get into the robots and operate t...

22:41
and you do you, in as much as you can handle and enjoy it
oh god blade runner
idk if I wanna get into it
the original movie seemed dull af
and they say now that it was much better than this new one
idk idk
I liked GITS 1995 but not blade runner
guess I'll just see the new one first and maybe watch the old one if I feel like it
I'm going to sleep, bye
Dream of nice ideas :D
And if you don't remember your dreams, just write them as fast as possible right when waking up
