The idea that some people think Bloodborne has severe performance issues blows my mind. Is there a perceptible drop in framerate in a few places? Sure. Perceptible. Does it impact your ability to okay the game at all? No.

To me, severe performance issues implies actual lag. Which plenty of games have.

Yeah I'm pretty wary of making quake a class-based shooter. But I don't really play those kinds of games anymore, so it doesn't really matter to me. I won't play quake on a console, and I don't play pc twitch shooters. I'm done with that part of my life.

I mean, I'm an addict. I can get addicted to anything. But multiplayer twitch shooters take over my entire life. They coopt my entire brain reward system. With single player games, casual games, alcohol, drugs, tv shows, i can juggles those with the rest of my life.

But multiplayer twitch shooters on PC I can't do at the same time as being a functioning adult.

Like, this week I drank 15 liters of box wine and played about 60 hours of Horizon Zero Dawn, but I also aced a midterm and did a bunch of homework.

Yeah like, I had to take a break from overwatch. By virtual of playing it on ps4, and being class-based, it wasn't really the crack that Quake 3, CS:S and UT2k4 were for me, but I could feel it starting to takeover.

And it's not just that I play them constantly, my mindset changes when I play those games. I become really serious and competitive and lose perspective about things and I don't like how it feels to be thinking that way all the time. It coopts my ability to set goals and prioritize life choices by moving them all inside the game. I set gameplay goals rather than life goals.

Basically, I'm real dumb. But I'm working with what I got.

I think Food would also be an interface :cheeky:

Soup is within the set of Food which overlaps the set of Drinkables, which it is also in. Set theory is the answer here boys.

My thinking was that Food implements Eatable. Soup is a subset of food. All food is eatable, some foods are drinkable. Beverage would be another class, which would implement drinkable, because all beverages are drinkable.

Some things, like antifreeze, would implement drinkable, but are not beverages.

PS4 has Overcooked (or, as my and my roommates call it "Choppy Game!"), which will not only teach children the value of teamwork, but it has controls for two people to use the same controller. Like, on person uses the right half of it, one person uses the left half.

We have never tried this, because it sounds like a control scheme invented to troll people.

Well, Pokemon games and the Pokemon show are both models of the same premise. But Yu-Gi-Oh the show is just​ about playing Yu-Gi-Oh the game.

Like, in the Pokemon show they Don't play the Pokemon card game or the Pokemon video games. The show is about the same things the games are about.

God drat



Lol at the end where the sword is just way too heavy so they have to drop it on stuff instead

Man at Arms: Reforged, is really cool, but I don't always understand the decisions they make. Like, on the one hand, they seem committed to not "cheating", but they also make really weird, seemingly arbitrary structural choices that aren't "realistic". Like, yeah, it's a ludicrously sized sword, but they could have built it in a way that made mire sense froma design perspective and still had the complete outward appearance of the Greatsword of Artorias and also been lighter.

They are good at what they do, though.
