zen death robot posted:The Taint Reaper is a special kid Actually I'm correct because the example he gave would be incorrect. I'm not watching myself play the game, I'm watching the screen. Despite it being in first person view I'm still watching the girl even though it's from the game's first person camera. Where as I can't watch myself unless I'm viewing myself from a camera. In which case yes I can watch myself go to the store. I am separated from the game itself, where as his example made it be a direct action. They don't work, it's like clementines and cucumbers.

You aren't loving watching her do the poo poo, you're seeing it through her eyes and directing it. You are watching the environment, not watching her. "Watching x do y" implies you are looking at object x as it performs action y. Here's a better example: you don't say you're watching somebody record a cat doing funny poo poo, you say you are watching a cat doing funny poo poo. Maybe you'd say you're watching a video of it, but if you used that terminology you'd say you're watching the game, not the character you're playing. Just learn to admit when you're wrong and you'll look a lot less stupid.

"Watching x do y" implies you are looking at object x as it performs action y. Dude I am playing a videogame, I am watching the screen. I am not Faith herself. I am using a controller to make things move on the screen. I am still looking at the screen. Watch is defined to look at something carefully, usually at something which is moving. Stuff is moving on my videogame computer, much like it would be on a TV screen.

Except the camera is part of the rig that makes up Faith, it's usually parented to one of the head bone or neck bones so it moves along when the character moves. And I'm just having fun with the meta discussion on perspective on a game who's primary feature is that.

It more or less is. The items aren't as bullshit as they've been in more recent Mario Karts, it's more like Diddykong Racing

Also, boosting is a lot of what determines whether you win or lose. Not only are there boost things on the track, but you can do flips, drifts, and almost crash into poo poo (in plane mode) to go fast And there's a Skies of Arcadia level. It's a good game

I've heard some people just import saves or use cheat engine poo poo for single player but YMMV for that. It's still got a very active multiplayer.

You can and you get better at the game and can go back and do harder modes of earlier things too, but higher difficulty poo poo in later parts of the campaign thing start requiring you to do everything pretty much perfectly.

Yeah you need to boost/powerslide every chance you get. It's like playing the earlier versions of Mario Kart where snaking was a thing.

Banished is on Steam sale. I bought the game at release. I said it here before when banished launched, its a game i didnt think was worth 20 bux but would be worth it for 10 bux. Once you discover the optimum strategy it kind of gets old. But Banished is really relaxing, and enjoyable. I think I put like 10 hours in. Also I like the idea of supporting the creator, since one dude did literally everything. So I'm more forgiving that the end game content peters out real quick. Another plus is it's really, really, relaxing to play. Zen like. Last thing and I'll shut up. A significant draw of the game is that the engine/code the creator used made it really easy to mod. So the creator and the community was all like, lets go ham with mods! The creator was making a specific program thing to help customize/mod the game, that he was going to give away. So basically everyone was like, end game content will be taken care of by the community. But that never happened. And I haven't followed the game's development so IDK if it's on the way or what. And that's JIZZ DENOUMENT's long thing about Banished the 10 dollar game on steam sale. hth
