  1. I have been adjusting valta that nobody touches to change some of these animations. Some of them didn’t even know they exist. It works fine right now but uhhhhh

  3. good lord do not ever let me make a video game, i am certain i am violating every coding best practice

    • @zeldatra At least you got practice, even when it's not the best. I'm a software developer for over 7 years and in my last project (ended a few days ago) it is littered with crimes I did. Mostly because I was not given enough time to do it properly. It is of great value to know which "technical debt" one has caused and how to mitigate it next time. There are only a few principles one has to follow to write good code like writing modular code that has as few dependencies as possible to solve the problem, naming the variables and functions and classes clear enough such that they convey their intent unmistakably, and writing code that can be reused. The last point is a nice to have but for a small project it is probably too much hassle except it is really needed more than once in the program. Otherwise software is malleable enough to be rewritten with the power given by the knowledge of hindsight, meaning good ol' refactoring.

  4. Kaito never enters a building in Lost Judgment that requires him to take off his shoes. I learned this when his feet suddenly disappeared after I entered a shrine in Infinite Wealth.

  5. Also Yagami (and Kaito’s) entries in the party database seem to genuinely stem from RGG just adding protagonists sequentially with each new game going back to Yakuza 6; Kiryu is 1, Majima is 2, Yagami is 3, Ichiban is 4, and his yakuza 7 party + Masumi Arakawa fills out the remainder before we suddenly start getting LJ side characters; seems the ones who follow you around worked internally like Y7’s party members even though most of them don’t ever join you in combat.

  7. Weird factoids about playable Haruka:
    -she is capable of doing all of Kiryu’s minigames although because she is much shorter some of her animations are a bit weird, IE she doesn’t reach the handlebars in Can Quest. Not sure how easy the fix for those things is because although I COULD tweak the animations, they’re meant to be universal so switching the party leader to anyone else breaks the animations for them.
    -she CANNOT play most of Kasuga’s minigames, he takes over for those. Likely has something to do with the game switching to his cutscene model or something like that, I haven’t looked too deep into it yet.

    • -she CAN however go to Dondoko Island. The only issue I’ve found there is that she has no voice lines for greeting villagers, although she does not reuse Kasuga’s like I thought she would; she simply doesn’t say anything at all, opting to wave instead. That’s interesting as hell. Pulling audio from other Rie Kugimiya/Xanthe Hyunh projects probably fixes this.
      -When taking selfies she either starts speaking in Kiryu’s voice (when in Japan) or Kasuga’s (in Hawaii). Not sure if this is fixable.

  8. Cities Skylines 2 is so great, I love how the entire town will all choose one road to drive on so no matter how many new highways you build they will all decide to clog up a suburban street forty miles away because they all decided that is the best way to work

  14. There are theories about a hollow earth, which are obviously stupid. I have have also a theory on my own: the hollow head theory, which shows more and more signs each day that provide evidence that it might be true.

    • @adiwan I get not wanting to tell the exact same story in the exact same way again, like what's the point of that, but if it's not AT ALL the original story then what's the point of THAT?!

    • @scribus There are some clever alterations, and some character backgrounds got streamlined and more fleshed-out, which I can appreciate, as well a character that got only mentioned in the games and is somewhat integral to the story has more of a spotlight. For me it's a problem that given what we got in the live-action series is vastly different in the core of all.In the game Haruka is Yumi's daughter. Kiryu was in love with Yumi but she died in the end. There is a huge portion with Kiryu bonding with Haruka and then adopting her in the end because Haruka is a constant reminder of that lost love and her being the daughter he could never have with Yumi. This aspect is completely missing as Yumi is alive and Haruka's mother is Yumi's sister. I can glance over some things like Kiryu emoting heavily and him not being an ordinrary money-collecting Yakuza. It makes me want to watch the adaption from 2007.

  19. Lots of people on Twitter going CRAZY over the fact that somebody got phone camera footage of Rockstar North’s lobby from the window and wondering how he did that. You do realize that’s a video game company and not the Pentagon, right?

    • Like it’s a public street. The biggest threat to your wellbeing for a heist of this magnitude is campus security rolling up and telling you to knock it off.

    • @zeldatra It is as exciting as shooting a video of the entrance of a super market. What do they expect? Spoilers leaking from the offices that are behind secured doors to the lobby area by themselves? I got juicier stuff from the companies I worked for and that is already somewhat public knowledge.

    • @zeldatra Plot twist: It's about problems getting proper sleep which in turn increases the likelihood in developing cognitive and perceptual problems resulting in poor judgments, hallucinations, feeling irritated by minor things to the extend of being actively hostile and feeling too tired to make changes to help against those problems.

  29. I bought a foot switch pedal. I intend to use it for the push-to-talk function for voice chat in Discord. I got myself a metal one for industrial applications for 11€. I'll connect an arduino Leonardo (Atmega 32u4) to the switch inside and it's practically done. I've already written the few lines of code, just a simple interrupt for the raising and falling edge of a pin that triggers a button press and release. I don't need any configuration of the key during runtime. There are foot switches for the PC available but they look cheap and I don't trust their software. Also I want it to use on my work pc so I can't say if the software will be blocked or trigger the dumb anti virus software.
