I mean there is also something I heard a while back. When you sleep in a new setting for the first time, you don't really sleep as deeply as you would in a setting you've grown comfortable in. So you may have just been sleeping lightly, and once you'd slept two 1.5 hour cycles you drifted out of sleep and realized "holy fuck this bed is uncomfortable". But I don't fucking know man I'm not a sleep doctor.

You should still probably give it a week or so to see if you adapt better to it. A stiffer mattress is generally a bit better to sleep on than a more malleable one, but if it's seriously causing you lost sleep that's a more pressing issue. But it may just be you're not adapting immediately to the new sleep environment.

i think it's a bad idea to buy a console in their first year do you know anyone who was like "oh man i'm so glad i bought this ps4/xbone when it came out"
i mean i guess some people have money to throw at things if i were to buy a console it would be a large chunk of my disposable income for the YEAR it would have to pay off pretty quickly and most consoles don't have big enough libraries to justify that
Too bad Zelda isn't coming out in like a year or two.

oh okay that makes sense They need a launch title like Zelda.
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
Yeah but I'm going to be less likely to get a switch if I want to play Zelda and it gets spoiled for me And if the >>41453 article is true, and the Switch is being sold as a completely unfinished product, that's probably going to hurt them a lot in the future as well
Anno
I don't really understand the frame they're selling here, that it's an unfinished product. Glitches and issues like the controller issue are prevalent in consoles; a lot of stuff like this can slip unnoticed through inhouse tests and only pop up when a mass number of people get their hands on and test the product. They act like this is some huge, glaring flag, but just about any console product can have major or minor issues on release.
If anything I think the bigger detail the article should have emphasized was the lack of response from Nintendo concerning the controllers, and any sort of issue people seem to have with the new console. A lack of communication is more damaging than an issue like this that might not even be a problem come release week.
Seems a bit odd to call it an unfinished product because of an issue with the controller when the first models of PS3 and Xbox had numerous issues and almost all of them died before their time.
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
There are a lot of issues that they talk about. The controller is just the one Tilde mentioned from the article.
Anno
It's definitely the highlight of the article though. The other two major ones I picked up on were the lack of information on the Virtual Console and the paid service not being implemented immediately on release. Which, I dunno. I can't really say much on the VC part since I have never been inspired to use it. If the paid online service impacts multiplayer games that get released before its implemented, then I agree that it's damaging--but not a sign of an unfinished product.
>Nothing about this strategy, from the lack of details to the information about your IDs and accounts themselves, is easy to understand. We have no idea which purchases, if any, from previous Nintendo hardware will carry over to the Switch. It’s possible we won’t know until launch. Maybe Nintendo itself is scrambling to figure it all out. I think stuff like this should be pretty basic information about the console.
bang von bang
i read a few other articles it does seem quite a few people had the desync issue with the left controller but it also doesn't seem like something that is enough to dissuade people someone said they were able to reproduce it consistently but that it only happened 2-3 times during 20 hours of normal gameplay
I'm just going to assume nothing carries over. Nintendo is really stingy.
Anno
I kind of think Nintendo might also have an infrastructure problem when it comes to implementing digital gaming stuff. The previous Nintendo consoles that offered digital purchasing have had really basic purchasing and game registration infrastructure compared to the other console providers. If they hope to bring Nintendo into the modern era of digital gaming, they need to really touch up their infrastructure and create better ways of keeping track of who owns what on a digital level. And I think trying to merge that with what they already have isn't something they have a good answer for.
Of course I own all of one game digitally right now, so it doesn't really matter to me if digital purchases are completely reset with the incoming Switch, but I can definitely understand why something like that would be a total upset for the console. But with how their infrastructure is right now, it isn't exactly easy for them to just import accounts with owned games.
bang von bang
nintendo's biggest problem will probably be >>41484
theyhandle a lot of things like a japanese business full of old as fuck japanese businessmen would
>>41482 Not to mention these are still pre-release consoles. Sure they're the finished product, but it's safe to assume they're still running a pre-release software version. What's more important than them not working perfectly right now, is if there's an update pushed during release week that fixes the problem.
I would say that in the end it doesn't really matter because it's just not wise to consider the purchase of a console so early in it's lifespan the PS4 has a suprisingly low amount of critical system failures so far but the PS2, PS3, Xbox, and above all the Xbox 360 had a lot of bricked consoles in their first couple years each and while the 360 had a decent library in it's first year, the PS3 did not
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
i don't know if "it's normal" is a proper argument i don't think it is although i guess other people will be okay with it the game industry seems to ship unfinished products en masse these days
if the product isn't thoroughly tested, it's not finished
bang von bang
i think it's because video games and consoles are actually ridiculously undertakings to make, and there's just too much profit to grab by dropping half-baked shit ridiculous* but the best way to combat it is to not be the idiots throwing money at the people making half-baked shit
bang von bang
i still feel a tinge of guilt about buying Astroneer and Slime Rancher who knows if those game will ever be finished and even if they are, maybe it will be years from now
bang von bang
and while the idea of consumers paying for products before they're finished is cool in theory it's more like the entire industry of developers and publishers is just banking on making good games but when the next production cycle comes around for their companies, are they going to have to ask for "money first, full game later" again just to be able to make it? is this a sustainable practice? if it is, is it good for the industry?
bang von bang
and at what point do we decide that the different but slightly // this is a tough question to word
profitability and high quality gaming experiences are not directly correlated but it's impossible to say they aren't related somehow the question that early access often brings to the table is if it creates a correlation that is not beneficial to the consumer, but instead only to the developer
Anno
It's a matter of trust, in the end. I think as it is right now, there's enough contentment with early-access and crowd-funding projects that turn out satisfactory for the "investors" that it's a project model that can endure for now. You look at games that have enjoyed success through letting people play the game as it developed, like Minecraft, and games like Starbound--which in its early iterations drew much flak and frustration, but has developed into something regarded as a quality game. Or something like Yooka-Laylee, which banked on you trusting an all-star cast of ex Rare employees to crowdfund the game.
>>41495 What I'm saying is, as it stands, the major notable successes have been enough for the concept of this project model to endure. It's a shame that there isn't really a way to "save" the people who buy into shovelware or other scam-like projects, but this hasn't been enough to tarnish the payment model on a large enough degree to turn the public off it.
bang von bang
But what of all the hordes of garbage games there's only a few examples of major notability but that's because there's just so many that are shoveled out, collect from a relatively small number of invested consumers, and then fade away
Anno
Another thing to note is that it is still a relatively new development model. Crowdfunding has only really been a considerable economic model for less than a decade. It's difficult to speculate on what long-term effects it might have on game development or even other industries that dip their toe in the water, because in reality we've only had a fairly short time to analyze it.

>women being responsible for nursing and such caretaking jobs prevents equality from being realised. "When caring for others is left to women, they can't advance on other areas of society equally.

Everything is subjective, but the games within the show are all terrible as games, the story is written around the idea of the games somehow being good and difficult, the characters are all either inept, decent-at-games, or a LITERAL GOD AT GAMES, and all the arcs are much like the story based on the games' rules which aren't even fucking consistent

Yeah I'm a little less clear on that. Does Nokia mean anything in particular or is it just gibberish?
Anno
If it's a city, then the rapper might actually have the leeway they need.

Kobayashi's seiyuu rolls Rs so well. She makes Tohru's name sound so good when said in a menacing tone.
I'm totally jealous since I can't figure out for the life of me how to roll Rs.

and then add vocal sounds
Anno
I feel there's a fundamental difference between how I learned to shape R in my mouth. And how it goes for other languages. The steps for Ls and Rs are different mouth formations for me.
Well i just gave you the basic like say llllllllllllllisten
月
>>41810 there are different ways to do R apparently and apparently i don't do either of them right my R's sound perfectly normal but i do something completely different than what's considered the two ways to do R

>>41811 At best all I can produce is a sluggish buzzing sound. When you say L spot, do you mean you put the tip of your tongue on your upper front teeth? Bottom front? The bit of gum right behind your upper front teeth?
月
i never noticed it but i do both the top and bottom for the L if it's a lingering L i have the tip of my tongue on my lower gum line, and the middle of my tongue at the top if it's a quick L i just roll it quickly in front of my upper teeth
Yeah, I know that spot. I still can't figure out how to roll though. It just comes out as a continuous tone.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
easiest is to hurrr basically making a u with your lips and blowing out
Anno
>>41820 I kind push my tongue into the behind of my front teeth. Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever lingered my L sounds. I lean more on the vowels in words like that.
Someone at KyoAni must really not like Elma. Introductory episode and it felt kind of QUALITY. They also clipped one or two of her early skits that I liked. How disappointing.
>>41851 Because there's a small market for it. And in terms of the overall costs of the localization and releasing, dubbing is relatively inexpensive. More so it's much easier to get a product aired on television that has English audio than just English subtitling. Also there are people that struggle with reading like Blind for example. Dubbing stuff has a lot of small benefits here and there for niche groups of people.
>>41853 the big benefit is being able to appreciate the art and animation more which depends on the show i'd always rather watch miyazaki dubbed for that reason
Anno
I mean I get where you're coming from, but that neglects that Ghibli films generally get exceptionally well-done dubbing because of how they're localized through Disney. So it's not even a struggle to put aside bad audio and appreciate the animation; the entire film can be enjoyed as a quality piece of work.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I practically never watch dubs there are some exceptions like old disney, because nostalgia
月
>>41860 im prone to watching ghibli things multiple times anyway watch the cat returns in english and in japanese sometime they do weird little things like add in small sound effects at points that weren't in the japanese that make the experience a lot more fun
only ghibli i've seen in english was mononoke hime that wasn't that bad, but when I later watched it in japanese, I noticed they changed some stuff in it. and also, how bad the lip syncing at times was.
Anno
That was the first Ghibli movie I saw. A childhood friend of mine had it on VHS. So long ago it was before I even had a conscious cultural separation between anime and western cartoons. They were all the same basket for me.
>>41862 I think the first time I watched The Cat Returns, I did so in English. For a while when I was in the anime club in high school, my dad was able to borrow out a large theatre room in his office. And like once a month we'd get everyone together to watch a couple movies. A Ghibli one was always a staple.
I've only seen Howl's Moving Castle in English Prefer Jap
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
muh first ghibli was totoro
『ｓｋ』
Still haven't finished Totoro
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
totoro and porco rosso aired on tv occasionally here when I was kid I must have been like 4 or so when I first saw it, but of course I couldn't read back then
>>41864 when she accidentally sits on Muta, there's no sound effect in the japanese in the english, they add this rubbery squishy sound effect and it is a really small detail but it makes the scene so much better the only downside with the english for it is that they had to improvise the muta -> buta pun which was really not a smooth localization but they tried
still one of my favorite movies ever and with a 70 minute run time i could watch it dozens of times and not really get too worn out by it it's paced so quickly but well
Nigga how is grenade attacks in sweden up 170%? How did they let this happen?
Not the increase, fuck that How is there a baseline from which you can increase by 170%? That means there's more than 1 To begin with
Like there are GRENADE ATTACKS in Sweden at a frequent enough rate that you can increase it by 170% What's the lowest number you can increase by 170% and end up with a natural number?
Anno
>>41869 I really enjoyed watching The Cat Returns as a fresh experience. It's not quite something I'd place as a favourite movie, but there's a number of scenes from it that are lovely to watch again. The nighttime Cat Parade and the scene where she goes down the rabbit hole into the cat kingdom are great.
>>41871 But that is just gang violence, ordinary swedish crime culture it happens in every country
月
>>41872 it's the first movie ive seen as an adult that made me giggle and laugh like a stupid kid watching saturday morning cartoons i just couldn't stop i was almost in tears the whole way through, just all the small details
Moon, pls help with that cause you can maths better than me
Lowest number possible to increase 1.7x and end up with a whole number I don't know how to figure this out
月
>>41875 yo nigga multiply by 10 is it a prime? and you're done
Anno
The Cat Returns also in turn linked me to Whisper of the Heart, which again, while not being a particularly favourite movie of mine, has one of my favourite opening scens -scenes of any movie. I still open up that movie to watch the opening scene with Country Roads playing.
>>41876 Uh? I don't understand what you're saying here
月
>>41878 oh i thought you were asking the lowest multiple of 1.7 that's a whole number but it's still going to be the same either way, just reverse the order of operations 17 is the lowest whole number obviously so 10 would be the lowest number possible to multiply by 1.7 to get a whole number output
27 grenade attacks or 10 genade attacks that is infinitely more than in the 90s or early 00s since it used to be fucking 0!
月
>>41884 yeah, since you're looking for a whole number, you can truncate anything in front of the decimal and just find the first occasion where the first decimal place holder hits 0 or actually all decimal place holders but you only have one
It is infinitely more grenade attacks than our capital has ever had and we've been in both ww1 and ww2
Anno
There doesn't seem to be any clips of the opening scene of Whisper of the Heart on YouTube. I guess it is one of Ghibli's lesser-known movies this side of the pond though.
>>41889 They generally let small scenes slip by here and there. I'm betting more that it got copyright claimed by whoever owns the song Country Roads, since that plays the whole way through the scene.

>>41914 Vidya geem. An adventure of collecting chosen musical performers to produce a concert to seal away a great evil. It kind of started off a feeling of a tune where it begins as a simple track played by a single instrument that gets joined by others as the theme grows in complexity. The idea is that the music would also reflect the development of the story, doubling back on itself at points where old settings would be revisited, rising in crescendo as the story hits climaxes, stuff like that. I've always remembered the role of a mute protagonist kind of endearing, so I imagined one that plays a flute, blowing music at enemies, and responding in social scenarios with trills of the flute. That sort of lead into the other band members being able to produce different music effects as they join the party, or maybe teaching the protagonist different applications of music. But the series hits its -Bu t the game hits its highest climax when in a premature encounter with the last boss, the protagonist gets slain, and the rest of the band has to put themselves back together, missing a strong unifying factor--the heart of the band. This would be represented in the underlying theme with the vanishing of the flute from any instrumentals. Really I just want to play around with music composition but I've got no real experience in it. But ideas like this always come to me and I feel at a loss of what to do with them.

>>41917 dynamic battle music is great sounds like a cool idea i wish mother 3's music battle system were more elaborate
Anno
>>41923 It's not just battle music, it's also something like Journey. And how deeply the music of that game was tied with the environment and plot progression of the game. The kind of things the developers for that game did with the music and event-triggered sounds were nothing less than awe-inspiring to me. It was sheer brilliance.
okay so i'm an autist who makes fictional worlds and shit in his head and I had a bunch on a website called Myth Weavers that lets you fill in a bunch of formats for tabletop gaming stuff and save it all online and they had a horrible error recently and lost a bunch of user files and a lot of my stuff is gone to the wind forever AL my shit it was heart breaking
>>41927 There have so many things happening with data that this just sounds natural
Anno
>>41931 It's okay really because I focus more on autistically making characters in my head, rather than worlds and I think more about the character's character, and less about their stats so i still have the souls of them in my head still sucks though
Anno
What I'm really upset about losing is some of the quests and stories and adventures I've lost Those are much harder to remember everything about

>>41935 not even 1 tbh maybe a couple months worth of thinking stretched out over several years
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
that really sucks I know I'd be pretty upset if my materials for my cthulhu game disappeared
Anno
It kinda discouraged me from making up any more autistic shit

however, on the up side, I am free from the burden of having stuff in the first place because when you have stuff you have stuff to lose all things are fleeting
When you lose stuff you have worked on, it always will upset you has happened to mee too

Dnno, but I doubt you can atleast post apocalypse
But you can change the subclass like chef and scribe etc
Anno
Can't remember but reason dictates you can't. Otherwise think of all the people that would subclass reclass to chef so they could eat food that doesn't taste like dustball.
I don't think you could reclass Since some people had alt characters to get around that
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
cause minori changed from leather worker to the apprentice
Anno
Oh huh yeah, I guess that's true. Guess it's just one of those situations where it's just really a pain in the arse to grind up a new skill. Unless you're fanatically crushing on someone and devoid of sane thoughts likes Minori is.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
but you know people who are lvl 90 anysubclass why would they change or 40 or 50 they no longer have the convenience of it being a game and things being faster to level up so
Yeah but shiroe is a good character with stuff going on besides harakuro and shit minori is >wanna be shiro >maybe has proper feeling for him the end >>41951 true dat, but his /her bro is a decent character on theo ther hand

He's also a college-aged grown man and Minori is like, a middle school student.

I kind of liked the Scrub Horizon segments. It was a refreshing palate change from the mature members who knew all the ins and outs of the game and instead focused more on the politicking.
『ｓｋ』
Do the characters actually remember the beach? When they die
>>41958 I did too. In fact I think it's Mamare-sensei's strongest skill. his ability to write engaging and exciting politics and the like. But the Scrub Horizon parts still acted as nice rest points. Even really interesting written material benefits from a change of pace and subject matter.

it all feels pretty real but it's like i'm having layers of vision in front of my field of vision, or overlaying it i guess like dreaming but it's not interfering with my vision, but having visual dreams

>>41995 early 20's corroborate pretty closely with the onset of my cognitive decline it also corroborated with a lot of traumatic life events so i always just figured it was grief but my dad had a period of schizophrenia after the military at a young age too i really ought to get checked out i feel fine but you can't exactly do statistical analysis on one point of data
When we hung out, you didn't trigger any schizophrenia flags with me, but I guess it can cycle in some people.
This guy's profile shows that he's having some problems doing his work, but he told me in the interview that he doesn't have any problems or concerns about anything. He's like, super duper fucking paranoid, though. I'm surprised he even agreed to meet with me. But there's no indication of him faking psychopathology. In fact, he was pretending to be less crazy than he is And he tried excessively to make himself look like a good person
It can depend on the type of crazy, but it's kind of consistent with paranoia.
It means he denied extremely common social faults, like, claiming he's never thought about stealing anything Or he's never done anything to get in trouble
月
>>41998 I'm quite certain I dont have schizophrenia, but I think that may have just been the manifestation it took for my dad I've got probably some kind of thought disorder
