  • (Gaming Voids) - Gaming Development Missing Features

    I want to make it absolutely clear that I respect Red51 making Rising World, making a free-roamy game, etc. I may be obnoxious, that's only because I want what's best for Rising World as a fan of it. Back in 2015 I joined because it was the best game (in 2015) for allowing NPCs to be added. It was between Blockscape and Rising World; Rising World won here for me. I was afraid of joining the community, sadly now being the most obnoxious here because people are afraid of voicing their thoughts or afraid of other games to play the game they want. The only time I've seen people speak up is when they hide in Creative/Peaceful mode to then complain about survival elements added into the game......


    I may have overstepped my boundaries on GEMA, I'm however seeing a growing frustration of Steam's German gaming censorship. It has to be noted.


    ----

    - Germany's hypocritical Gaming bans:

    I've always been on the hunt for Indie games constantly finding out neat open-world lewd games keep getting censored in Germany in a hypocritical manner. According to wikipedia (a source not to be fully trusted) Germany has the biggest gaming ban list, a quarter(?) of which was undone in recent times. Probably around the time GEMA intelligently saw it proper to undo restrictions. I always find it hypocritical how Germany preaches about freedom and political diversity yet they go around banning games, and anime, among other forms of media. You can only hide from your past for so long. Acknowledge your past, be true to yourself and do what's actually right. Same with my fake-minded Canadians.


    (Also a loose response to someone labeling me "radical minded".)


    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/…anned_video_games#Germany


    Gonna list the games I've heard of and/or played** on the list


    • Afro Samurai
    • Army of Two
    • Bioshock
    • Bloodrayne & 2 **
    • Call of Duty (all)
    • Crackdown
    • Dead Island
    • Dead Space
    • DOOM
    • F.E.A.R
    • Fallout & New Vegas
    • Gal Gun 2
    • Gears of War 1 & 2
    • Godfather (both)
    • Goldeneye 007**
    • Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories** (All GTA)
    • Left For Dead 1 & 2 **
    • Mortal Kombat (all)
    • Prototype & 2
    • Resident Evil (Most)
    • Saints Row (all)
    • Sleeping Dogs
    • Valkyrie Drive: Bhikkhuni
    • Wolfenstein & 3D

    The list isn't up to date so you have to add all the other +18 games onto it.


    • Silent Hunter 3 (Swastika censored)
    • She Will Punish Them (No access via Steam)
    • Half-Life 2 (death censored)
    • Command & Conquer: Generals (Germany & China both hate these for various reasons)
    • (Countless other +18 and "family friendly games here that I'm unaware of)


    People REALLY want to play these games in Germany, they're however being denied on Steam. I feel bad for Red51 for having to deal with any rules and regulation Germany side, even with GEMA among others. Even my own postings, but these have to be noted. People are legit getting frustrated they can't play their desired games on Steam.


    Quote from Hamurator;3192486000829104193

    Has anyone from Germany recently tried to get the game? I just ordered a key from G2A/World_of_games but during the gifting process error 108 appeared saying "Steam prohibits this purchase for your region". From all sides I hear that a simple gift works fine so I'm a bit confused now why it does not work in that case.


    Has Steam tightened their region-lock?

    F*** Germany is one of the biggest video games markets for users and even developers, the video game industry is by far the biggest value wise entertainment industry, this is a really bad move to anyone who lives in germany, and only makes piracy more prevalent.

    (Source: Reddit)


    If you don't stand your ground you'll end up losing what you love and hold dear. You can't play your desired games, nor listen to your music and movies. This also probably explains why people wrongly believe Disney was correct in harassing and bullying Gina Carano in a professional environment. I was taught it's perfectly fine to harass and bully people because Disney and the journalists said it was. Let's go violate other people because they said so.


    As a Canadian I'm happy I can play most games. Seeing Goldeneye 007 under the ban list should ring as highly insulting. I grew up playing Goldeneye N64 while also proudly boasting about how awesome Perfect Dark is also. I miss those times. I had to fight to rent a copy at Rogers because I was still a kid, it was however the most advance game at that time. Well, if we don't count Sega Saturn, and all those. Those were more advanced, though poorly advertised.


    Germans can't even deal with their second form of stress and frustrations because of all these 'red tape' stuff. Even us Canadians have one actual known banned game (Dead or Alive), though that may grow if we allow hypocritical political values to run rampant like a genuine disease. I genuinely want to play that game, I can't. It's region locked because of western hypocritical values.


    https://www.reddit.com/r/Steam…s_all_adultonly_games_in/



    Need to pressure both Germany and Steam/Valve to stop being hypocritical over stupid things. I'm not German so I can't fight this war for you, that's for the Germans here to do so themselves. I've given you the information, it's up to you if you want to live like China & North Korea forced to have a radio on 24/7 while not being legally allowed to turn the volume down. Social Credit scores, etc. Then I'm somehow allegedly a "radical". Common....... Grow up. I don't know the subtle cultural side of things so maybe everything here is "taboo" to fight for yourself, or whatever.


    But yeah, there are various 'Dead or Alive' titles which won't come to the western world because of these same hypocritical mindsets. So much for freedom and freedom of creativity/expression. :nerd: So much for being a "free country", etc. I say, in a Canadian light regarding this sentence.


    --------


    The next time I get Steam moderated (surprisingly, it's been awhile) I'm going to vent and yell at them about this stupid German thing you guys got going on. That is all I can do on my part. I'm trying to help you Germans out. Gaming voids, and everything. We haven't had a proper Silent Hunter 3 sequel since roughly 2006. Granted, we have 'Uboat', that is still rough around the edges.


    By the way, 9 months ago someone sent a support ticket. You guys need to keep sending it in, regardless of the maturity of the game. Give them an inch and they'll take a mile. People have been 'salami-slicing' territory and your freedom away since the beginning of political human history:


    (You're not allowed to do this, that, and even that because it offends me.....)



    There are people in Germany who want access to these things whether they're lewd or not. They genuinely contain great gameplay in and outside of the +18 realm. Again, freedom of entertainment & creativity. Protect it.


    I've also been keeping track of Australia going on a growing banning spree of games and anime. It's OH so offensive. Oh the horror, OH the humanity. How "offensive". That time and energy could have been better spent saving kidnapped children, or something...... Saving sexual assault victims. But noooo, "entertainment is evil" nonsense.

  • Hololive "Graduations"

    During the dark times I'm thankful I have anime and other forms of media to stay happy in some way, shape, or form.


    A friend shared this video because of Aloe Mano in there. She was bullied off of Hololive by various bullies in all forms of harassment. Online, offline, etc. People calling her house.......



    Respect to Aloe Mano of Hololive Holofive o7


    Ina sings Spice & Wolf opening, an anime classic..



    Fans drawning fanvideos for Hololive.



    My happiness, if a little bit. While waiting for Rising World to mature anime is my last salvation, always has been. It's my light while I get insultingly labeled "radical minded" over things we need to protect in life; Dreams of three deaths in one form of family members (one upcoming), and a depressing workplace and life situation. Trying to stay happy while constantly getting the middle finger in various areas. Honestly can't wait for RIsing World to mature, though am trying to be patient the best I can. To those that don't want to see me venting constantly then well..... I don't know what ot say to you. Life isn't sunshine and rainbows. I tried my best being positive. I don't plan to *poof*, I'm however just being "opinionated" while getting insulted almost on all sides for simply being myself using anime as my escapism. And Rising World, to an extent.


    Anime is my escapism with Hololive being the only "sunshine and rainbows" currently outside of anime episodes. Lightly with Rising World with recent update.

  • The Tomorrow War (Movie) - (Possible spoilers)

    This post is now blaming both Youtube & Toei Animation abusing the broken Youtube system.




    Youtube hides dislike button because big corporations are offended. Kathleen Kennedy, among others. It's not because of "alt-right" or whatever bullcrap you guys been fed, it's because of censorship, plain and simple. Believe what you want, even if the Dislike button was hidden to defend the integrity of Santa Clause, or whatever you guys were told. Surprise me.


    Secondly, Toei Animation (in Japan) has gone around flagging and copyrighting various videos on Youtube to remove them. It's going to take 36 years to get his various videos back. I need to know see what Toei Animation works on so I can boycott them also, even by other means.


    Doing a quick Google leads me to this:


    Quote

    Why is Toei Animation bad?

    Why does Toei Animation produce poor quality animation despite their age/experience? - Quora. This is mostly due to overworking and deadlines. Toei has to produce these episodes quickly and since they are hand drawn, the quality dips significantly.


    They produced some noteworthy anime and titles, just not many to stand out fully.


    I bet I'm going to get labeled 'radical minded' again over a bullcrap reason again. Protect what you genuinely hold dear or you're forever going to lose it to censorship. If you don't agree with me then put yourself in a sterile box until you get bored seeing what the world shall become.:huh:

  • (Gaming Voids) - Gaming Development Missing Features

    - Colony Survival - "I just want to blog & Fake Inspiration":

    https://steamcommunity.com/gam…etail/3127183806215894637


    I'm absolutely getting highly frustrated with Colony Survival developers. They had a good foundation, etc. I enjoyed the potential with everything, etc. I'm honestly at the point where I want to contact Steam support to refund my game because these Dutch developers want nothing to do with their game. They want to preach politics, blog, and all this sort of nonsense. I'm getting annoyed by it. I've had negative experiences with Dutch people I'm highly wary of them, now more so than ever..... This is just a middle finger to any gamer.


    If we're going with F1 then I used to watch it until the FIA censored the race after Ferrari kept winning constantly. Sure, there will be people saying it was boring because you know who would win, that was however the height of F1. Then Kobayashi when he was racing for Toyota would make overly brave and stunning passes. Kobayashi even has a Figma figure in Japan for how he raced in F1. Ever since then I couldn't watch it because the best parts kept being removed. I tried watching it again to find Australians politicalized their Formula 1 races just like with the UK with BLM, and Canadians with hockey mixed with fake politics. All fake politics........


    I want to see an actual formal change log for Colony Survival, not some ramblings of political Dutch developers bent on spreading politics instead of their game.



    These developers are in no position to be rambling like this. They haven't accomplished anything worthwhile. Rising World has, Azur Lane has, Genshin Impact, .... Nier Automata, among other titles. They've made their statements in the down-low and in the gaming dialogue. I would mention Flight Sim 2020, MIcrosoft isn't honest so they're not on that list. The community, just not the company. The ones I mentioned by name had to say what they wanted to say, especially Nier Automata developers for backing their passion for the game.


    I'm honestly annoyed with this fake political bullcrap; fake philosophical take. I want to see a changelog for once. They went on about politics, travel logs, Formula 1, among other wonky "philosophical" takes without implementing them........


    WORK ON YOUR GOD DAMN INCOMPLETE GAME!

    (Bunch of lazy twats.)

  • Update 0.4: Crafting, Smelting and lots of new Items

    Quote from red51

    That's weird :wat: Basically the red cross should not interfere with any objects... but I will check out what's going on there :)


    This makes sense. Right now stone behaves like any other item (i.e. first tries to fill the hotbar, then the inventory), but perhaps it would be better to have a more specific handling for certain items ^^

    1) I guess it is what it is. We'll find out eventually when I get to playtest o7


    2) Nice. It's just weird how it would swamp your hotbar while not going into the main pile in the inventory. Thanks for looking into it.


    Quote from red51

    [Change] Primitive furnace now has a bigger fuel capacity

    I assume I had noted this so I'm glad to see it having a bigger capacity. It just felt weird to babysit it. Though, a certain routine could have been done, though it's neat it's been changed. I'll see about any hotfixes changes later. Thanks Red o7


    Quote from red51

    [Bugfix] Fixed crafting ingredients not being removed correctly when crafting

    Was getting so many resources it was hard to tell. Glad you caught this one.

  • Update 0.4: Crafting, Smelting and lots of new Items

    Quote from red51

    That's definitely planned ;)

    Hype! Always struggle to contain my hype, I can't wait to see what you implement in the end. :thumbup:


    (Looks back at the gif in the spoiler in anticipation)


    Quote from red51

    I guess it will be added with one of the next few updates ^^

    Nice.


    Someone was curious Steam side also. I guess we'll see it when we'll see it (ready when it's ready). :nerd:



    Quote from red51

    Oh, the red indicator may be the helper tool for building. It's disabled by default, but if you've played the demo back in December, that setting is active. You can disable it in the misc settings under "building" (disable "show marker") ;)

    Probably. As for why it blocked the ladders has me stumped. It allowed blocks, just not ladders to snap lower. Maybe it is as you say. :thinking:



    Quote from red51

    Yeah, we definitely want the lantern to be usable as item ^^

    Excellent. I'll add onto this by saying I hope it's similar to how lanterns work in the game 'Dragon's Dogma'. Well, minus the constant refueling. That's up to you though.


    Quote from red51

    This is a good suggestion, I will put that on our to-do-list!

    Nice. Yeah, it was frustrating seeing stone land in my hot bar in #3-5 slots. One ladder goes to find 3-6 stone stacks I'd have to shift+click out. Also, I love that Shift-clicking, glad it's there. Stone should stay with its family, not hoard my inventory heh. :lol:


    Alright, awesome. Now that's noted time for a rest. Maybe I can Rising World tomorrow evening. :nerd:

  • Update 0.4: Crafting, Smelting and lots of new Items

    Quote from red51

    I agree, that would be a nice addition. Can't say much about them yet unfortunately, first we need to get the world gen and animals implemented, but then we can take a closer look at npcs ;)

    I know you've tried with NPC dummies in Java version. I give you props for that. I wish we could have resized them to 15 cm tall, and to as tall as we desired. You tried and I respect that. I know it also goes without saying, I just can't wait for when you look into NPCs and the NPC companions. Hopefully they can interact with the world in a basic manner when you cross that bridge.


    Good luck on the world gen, maybe by the time it's implemented we can have fun on the Steam Deck, etc. Or whatever shall happen. Good luck sorting it out. o7


    On a secondary side note other games are frustrating me when they don't care about their player base. Hope to eventually see even NPCs being this colourful in the various outfits. (No rush on the outfits, I'm just noting something I saw on my Steam activity for Kurtzpel game)



    That's just me though. Wanting to see the best in RW :)


    And for when the time comes I can't wait to see her in the game in one manner or another. Customization, importing models over NPCs Tower Unite/VRChat/Valheim style....



    Sorry for the gif, just hyped at the various potentials and the current coolness :nerd:


    Quote from red51

    Unfortunately plant growth isn't implemenet yet, that's why it just spawns a fully grown tree :|

    Noticed, and that's fine. I'm even amused it's even implemented this way to fill in voids and gaps. :lol: I had a nice chuckle because it actually works.



    Quote from red51

    Oh, actually the inventory and crafting menu use different buttons: The inventory is opened by pressing TAB (at least that's the default key binding), while the crafting menu can be opened by pressing E. You can, however, change these bindings in the settings.

    Silly me. I assumed both tab and 'e' were the same thing. Now that you've made me aware I'm now naturally opening up the inventory with 'tab'. :thumbup:



    Quote from red51

    We will add a new journal in the future, we also have plans for a tutorial, but these features had a low priority till now (considering there are still so many core features missing in the new version) :(

    Even if it's hastily done in a scribble I wouldn't mind. A quick 20 min job, or I can wait. Either or works, I'm not that picky on this. It would have helped though, for sure. Yeah, I guess you might as well plow forward with bug fixes, blue prints, world gen, then NPCs itself, as you've noted. Now that I know how this game works again it's all good. :thumbup:



    Quote from red51

    Yes, unfortuantely that's also not implemented yet :silenced:

    Haha. Is it planned to for a recent update or a little down the road? :thinking:



    Quote from red51

    Oh, could you elaborate on that? Does that mean you can't play any blocks or objects below Y 290? :wat: Could you maybe share a screenshot of that indicator?

    I tried to replicate my issue. I couldn't. I'm assuming it may have to do with the straight on placement from where you spawn all the way down to 290. I'm honestly not sure what happened. What I however saw was red indicator as you would in Blender and Unity when centering projects on the field.



    I basically stopped at this depth. It's loosely where I dug down. I made a wall behind the other ladder, dug down further getting to 162. :?::?::?::?:
    (Had to stop because it was getting too late to test)


    I've asked around if someone else could replicate my issue, nobody jumped to assist me. We'll see if anybody sees this post can replicate this issue. Maybe I'll unknowingly bump into the same issue later.


    ----------------


    Second batch of feedback:


    1) Props to the Menu BGM starting up. (Always in a rush failing to acknowledge this)

    2) Lantern - I wish when you pick it up it would automatically stay lit, even if returned to your inventory. It should prioritize an open hand. Or be able to attached to a belt/hip. The lantern is highly handy I could easily span three alternating them around to tunnel away underground. May need some Medieval alternate for this also.

    3) I love how torches can be lit and unlit, even staying lit for a good 3 minutes before snuffing out. All lights.

    4) I love the auto-walk up/down on elevated blocks. You don't need stairs (Can't recall if in Java or not)

    5) Tab is inventory, E is crafting..... I can get used to this now (I complained about this in previous batch). It's not an issue so I'm fine with this. Already used to it now that it's pointed out.

    6) I love the running animation when empty handed, something I forgot to note earlier.

    7) All the stone needs to find a stack in the main inventory, not the main hotbar.


    I wanted to play more sadly having to wait till later. Good luck Red51 :thumbup:

  • Update 0.4: Crafting, Smelting and lots of new Items

    Alright, my first playthrough I made note of this in a notepad.


    - Amused by the soccerball and soccer net. Random, though necessary and comical. (Eventually found out it despawns. Wish it wouldn't despawn)

    - New menu is awesome. Friendlier, more visible. Shows everything you need right in front of you.

    - NPC Companions are a must (Friends kept turning me down, or simply unavailable).

    - More Medieval Gear desired by others (Armour, civilian, etc)

    - Planting trees gives me full grown trees (Saplings to mature trees instantly)

    - Some quality of live issues differences between Java and Unity. Certain things are tolerable, others need new learning. Any specifics will have to be noted at a later time. For now, one of them has to be desiring inventory with it going to crafting instead. Frustrating.

    - Primitive smelting furnace is a little bit too primitive. Burns fuel far too inefficiently, though probably intended for efficiency purposes and babysitting purposes.

    - Scything grass splatters green grass even on brown areas. Grass is like a paint balloon.

    - Forgot how to use the Menu wheel. Had to go into Settings to figure this out. (I miss the journal; F1 needs to be more visible. Forget when playing other games)

    - Forgot how to rotate items desiring the Java version of rotation of mouse wheel (or so I recall). Probably false memory from other games. Noted to be arrow keys for rotation.

    - Storage chest doesn't store stuff (probably intentional).

    - The open barrel has to be the best addition into the game yet. You can store loose items in it (not sure how long for despawn), and you can even hide in it by crouching.

    - You can hold the soccerball, even loosely throwing it. The open barrel is the best storage device to hold onto any loose soccerballs.

    - Primitive spear can be used to stab directly in front, or to hold above and throw. Once thrown, it can get stuck in items that are wooden, or 'light'.

    - Trying to use Cylinders and Ladders. Some explanation is needed (even in a journal), to explain how to build. Modular snapping was discovered when I looked into settings and when I was placing items. It's through settings I re-figured out how to use this feature.

    - Any water container (Canteen/Waterskin) appears to have unlimited water (for now). Not a problem.

    - Can't build below 290. Blockwise, just not placing items. A red X,Y,Z indicator popped up preventing me from building below that, unless it's with blocks.

    - Trying to build blocks of different type of the same texture bunches them up into the same primary block type. Stairs turns into the main square blocks of the same texture.


    -------------------------


    Screenshot with descriptions:


    - Grass, when scythed, spreads out texture wise like a paint balloon.


    - I love the new inventory menu and auto-sort. I however wish it would default to inventory instead, not crafting.


    - Barrels with the open top have to be the best addition yet.


    - Chests need storage space (probably intentional, for now).


    - I love this barrel addition so much. I wish the soccerball stayed.


    - Having fun with spears.


    - I wish we could get blocks which compliment the circular hollow cylander at 2.0 x 2.0 size. I have a workaround for now.


    - My ladder hole problem with flush blocks. We need something to compliment the hole. Have a work-around for now.


    - May be a glitch, may be player error. I had two sets of ladders disappear on me when I was mining around. I heard an 'clunk', it disappeared so I had to make another pair of ladders.


    - I wish these blocks would just naturally snap under, not parallel to. When you're dealing with stairs you need them to be fluid, like modular snapping with ladders. The game should automatically assume you're snapping the next layer down, at any grid or shape size.



    ------------


    If possible, can you allow us to have some food? A simple apple tree, or something cheaty, like the saplings spawning mature trees. I spawned in apples, for now. Whatever you can manage.

    Because we have Steam forums and this forum I have to mirror my posting there and here. I'll try to give you the brief summary on here.

    I hope enough people have pre-ordered the Steam Deck Rising World-side to show how relevant that game and red51 is. That is, if I'm understanding what it is saying. Would really love to see Rising World run smoothly on Steam Deck, especially how not everybody can afford a computer, is on a go, etc. It's also by Japan runs on mobile games because they're always in transit, etc. Maybe COVID is different having people behave different, I wouldn't know. Everything is locked down, I can't travel, etc. I wish Red51 the best of luck on obtaining his dev kit.

  • Rejected Features Hosted on modding site

    I'll just post it here on its own because someone got upset at me on the Steam forums.......


    For whatever feature the community rejects for any invalid or valid reason should go onto that mod hosting site. This way everybody is happy. If you don't like anything then don't download the mod.


    1) Zombies

    2) Magic

    3) Experimental Features

    4) Rejected/WIP projects

    5) ???


    ---

    https://mod.io/

    ---



    Basically put anything the community hates here because you'll otherwise have a stunted game. I keep calling people out, they keep getting upset at me, so simply just put any rejected or underwhelming feature here. People were divided on magic so it should also be its own thing on mod.io by allowing you to play with basic elementals from there. Flying, fire, snow, electric, etc... Typical fantasy stuff. Red51 (and friends) need to also populate the pool first to spark interest for others to populate things themselves.


    Even though people tend to view me as vulgar, arrogant, "loud", or whatever fail to see certain things the way I also see them. Rising World has the perfect opportunity to be the "next big game", as we've seen with Medieval Engineer (granted, developers 'abandoned those games) with how modding is keeping it alive, Skyrim modding, Minecraft, etc. I personally see a big opportunity to have Anime mods (as well as American and European ones) being a big thing on this game. With the proper support people shall do whatever they can.


    Zombies for sure need to be a modded thing. There are interested people, they're however being shoved down by paranoia and fear unable to see reason. You try to disclaimer they still tantrum... You just can't win. They ignore everything you say so you can't really can't compromise with them, hence why I'm always hostile and on the offensive. I'm not going to kneel down if the other person won't compromise. Basically put, just put zombies, magic, and anything else on mod.io to seed it for other people to add onto it. The more interest the more support you'll get.


    I'm waiting for someone to start whining and moaning how we have to purge mods later down the line...........


    Meet me half way and I'll meet you halfway, it's only fair.:monocle:

  • The Tomorrow War (Movie) - (Possible spoilers)

    Quote from Avanar

    Oh Arcticu... :(

    Hope you're not implying anything.


    ----


    To sum up my previous post:


    It's just depressing to see Anime, Youtube, Twitter, etc go down the drain while people openly, yet happily, accept censorship changes while believing anything the main media has to say is correct. Apparently its correct to harass and insult people if you view me as a conspiracy theory, or even "them" (Them = anybody who is viewed as alt-right, or whatever nonsense label people put on others). It's fine to treat people like trash while trying to shovel garbage then guilt trip people into consuming low-grade Hollywood trash with no effort. It's why I watch Anime because that is where the effort is.


    It's apparently fine to harass Twitter artists (and Pixiv artists) just because you're offended about something. Twitter themselves even supports harassment campaigns. Youtube dislike button taken away because of Kathleen Kennedy, etc. It's all nonsense. It's as if we're inching closer to China's standards of freedom of speech and creativity. No joke.......

  • Next update?

    December 1st? I'm in. Looking forward to what you have to share even if I have to deal with a possibly howling computer. Curious what's hidden in the changelog. I'm also loving the mention towards the new furnace implementation, the changing colours of lights, etc. This is an update I can actually playtest.

  • The Tomorrow War (Movie) - (Possible spoilers)

    I'm getting highly frustrated because Anime is always being attacked. Even how any good 2020+ American media is viewed "sub-par" because of some weird new modern standards. I've called out Hollywood's stunts as SJW, faux-politics, etc because any good movie gets shamed, bad movies get supported by journalists claiming people are "sexist", Alt-Right, or "phobic" when it's a genuinely trashy media. I wish we could have free European media as in the past (1990's), as well as support any awesome current American movies while weeding out the genuine bad ones freely. I miss watching those obscure European and South American movies...... Whenever we get something neat from North America now it's now constantly put under a microscope to degrade it into nothing while always use check-boxes to grade it in a very unintelligent manner. This is far more true when it comes to devaluing Anime to discredit it.


    When we look at anime people then have this very moronic POV on it (even fearful) the point they dismiss everything, ignorant about what Anime actually contains. Anime can go very deep in a very philosophical manner (even if I was told it wasn't by fake people on Youtube comments). You'd be surprised how deep Anime actually goes. It's just something you can't get in North American movies, media, or content as much, or anymore. People then try to defend Marvel and DC. It isn't what it used to be so I can't support, nor defend it. Sure, back in the 1950's to 2000's, sure. Anything over 2010, nah. Once Tumblr took over that industry everything went rock-bottom.


    Just look at how 'The Tomorrow War' was pulled apart in a very insulting manner. Looking back, the good movies I've enjoyed.....
    (Ghost in the Shell from netflix was 'decent', just not the best.)



    I'm sure there is more, and there are more. They're however from the 1990's during the height of great American movies. I'm struggling to find anything good 2010 plus because its harder to find, scrubbed, or not in demand. I'm constantly seeing praise for Gina Carano being bullied and abused even though that comes off as hypocritical from people when we should be treating staff and employee properly. What the journalists and Disney said about Gina Carano is genuine slander. I genuinely want to see more Star Wars Visions over any more hypocrisy.


    Disney taught me it's morally correct to use and abuse people in a highly abusive manner. It's fine to treat people like trash. Even the various journalists praising Disney over abusing Gina Carano are teaching people it's fine to treat other people in a harassful way. That is the message I'm getting from people. It's fine to be abusive.


    Anime artist Sakimi-chan targeted by hate campaign:


    I'm going to assume ResetEra is once again behind this abusing the report button to where Twitter is openly and willingly restricting anything anime, including Sakimi-chan. Of course I'd be pissed, and people are allowing this form of censorship because they believe whatever the media tells them. Of course I'm not fine with this, and I feel bad for Red51 having to decide if he wants to scold me or not over these sorts of post. Every day, week, or month we're seeing more censorship to the point even Youtube is hiding the dislike button thanks to the stupid moron, Kathleen Kennedy, being offended over the constant dislikes. Oh, but it's fine because the media said it was..... Yeah, sure. Whatever...... If the media told you to fuel up a car with water I'd bet $100 Canadian people would actually do it........ I'm sure people have done it regardless of what the media has told people.......


    We're not allowed to speak our minds, express our genuine dissatisfaction. Instead, we're being taught faux-politics to the point drinking water turns you alt-right, or homophobic, or whatever nonsense. Of course I'm frustrated. If the media was to spotlight me I'd be viewed as Alt-Right, even though I simply want to play Rising World, watch my uncensored anime 'raw', and watch things as they were back in the 1990's.... Pure, fun, and highly expressive. But no, I'm allegedly crazy, Alt-right, or whatever.......


    I understand this is a gaming forum, even so....... Poor Sakimi-chan, poor Japanese Pixiv artists, European games, etc. Everything is becoming sterilized and people are allowing it......... :angry: I even feel bad for Red51 having to constantly see these threads..... It just never stops...... Ignoring it makes it worse.

    - Microsoft Flight Simulator - The Simple things (Canadians):


    To add to my constant vent about Canadians in gaming I'm happy another void has been filled recently. Flight Simulator 2020 had a recent update bringing in new planes, F/A-18, and more content allowing for more fun and exploration to be had. (SU7 Update). Even the Reno DLC. It's been a blast testing things out when I had a chance to do so. I also need to bring this thread back up again because it's always the simple things which makes things better when either the developers or the community fill in voids other people refuse to do so *Cough*WW2NavalDevelopers*Cough*.


    It's honestly the simple things people do that allows things to be so much better and more enjoyable. F/A-18 now has a Canadian theme for us Canadians to show our pride.


    https://flightsim.to/file/2382…ghter-squadron-nighthawks











    It's so simple. It's as simple as Flight Sim has shown. But no, 'Minor nation', 'balancing issues', "too much work", I'm "ignorant", or whatever nonsense developers tend to tell me. I've been the happiest with Flight Sim, as I was with FSX, and now with MFS2020. I had fun flying freeware Canadian planes from Twin Otter, Water bombers, military planes, etc. The Twin Otter is set to release "soon" for MFS2020, and I can have fun with this F-18 under Canadian colours. People can't comprehend the fuss, or refuse to understand. It's simple things like these which means a heck of a lot. Simple things of having this sort of respect means a lot. :love:


    Heck, even Rockcliffe community add-on which adds onto an Avro Arrow display.

    https://flightsim.to/file/23861/cyro-rockcliffe


    I already downloaded that mod. It makes that airport more attractive when I'm used to taking off from Carp in the Ottawa region. I may try taking off from Rockcliffe from now on because it also has the Avro Arrow there. Heh.


    I genuinely wish game developers could comprehend logic the way Ubisoft Romania had by giving Canadians their own banner, and Canadians their own identity (not as payware milkcows) in Flight sim, and not in World of Warships or War Thunder. I'm genuinely near zen flying in Flight Sim with my roommate commenting I may break my computer overplaying Flight sim. :lol: If it means I can fly Canadian planes and themed planes then who the heck cares. Sure, I'll vent. I'll cross that bridge when I get there.


    ----------------


    I may have pissed off a developer at 'Train Life' for attempting to be neutral coming off as hostile by mistake. We'll see how that goes. I may have come off as aggressive. I'd rather piss off a WW2 game dev over a train sim developer. :thinking: They've friended me on Steam so I'm curious to see what their tone shall be once they manage to reach me. It's been 4 days since I made a rambly post to which one of them wanted to contact me.


    ----------


    In Short: Another void has been filled this week. Keep filling them gaming voids in! More Canadian representation added making us all happy. WOOOO!~ :party::party::party:

    - Helicopter Parents Destroying kids | Kids & Video game addiction:



    Strict parents are moronic preventing kids from both growing while escaping from the negativity. Kids need games or else they'll suicide. Parents need to meet their kids in the middle. These parents actually destroying their kids censoring media and grounding their kids over faux problems.

  • Next update?

    Sorry I couldn't help further test multiplayer. People became stubborn on my end, or work.


    November? Nice. Looking forward to this. I can actually play-test this one properly.

    Mechanic for smelting ores in furnaces. This works very much like in the Java version, i.e. furnaces won't have a UI, instead you place the ores in the furnace directly.

    Unlike the Java version, the new version introduces a few "Quality-of-life" changes, i.e. the ability to take all ingots from the furnace at once.


    Nice. I'm actually happy with this change. It'll make those complaining about it happier. It'll still have that realistic weighted touch to it so that shall be fine.

  • RIP Star Wars (I'll miss you)

    Star Wars is something I obviously hold dearly, just as much as I do with Anime. It's however a shame it was tainted by SJW and political nonsense with the New Trilogy. Star Trek was easily hijacked turning it into nonsense. People gaslighting those who point out how tainted it has become......


    Came here to post about Star Wars, Thrawn, and how Star Wars can be deep.



    The only thing I've seen come close to being deep as anime is Star Wars. Same with 90's Batman how it humanizes villains.

  • RIP Star Wars (I'll miss you)

    Found something interesting on Twitter, this one on a happy note



    About Gina Carano,


    Quote

    "I loved working with her. She’s warm, and beautiful, and wonderful ... I don’t care what her politics are ... She came to acting late and was so raw and original"


    Yup. It's a shame Disney wasted that potential, yet we have a nice lasting legacy of her being awesome and Disney having turned people into drones. All hail Gina Carano o7

    The Book of Boba Fett:


    Star Wars can still be saved with this series. This, and another run of Star Wars Visions. I can't wait to watch this to see how it'll go.




    It's however such a shame Disney screws everything up. I'm actually hyped (if wary) wanting to watch this to see how it'll play out.

    Caught this one as I was going to sleep.....

    Disney is submitting #StarWarsVisions episode 'The Village Bride' to the Oscars for Best Animated Short Film


    That, and 'The Ninth Jedi' better both be submitted and win something. If not, we all know Oscars is trash :)

  • (Gaming Voids) - Gaming Development Missing Features

    Two things to add.


    ----------------


    1) Dream About Steam Forum Ban 100%:


    Had a crazy dream where I posted Twitter link onto the Steam forums to which Steam moderation straight up banned me. In the dream (the other day) they straight up (and aggressively) went "Alright! Screw this. We're banning you 100% from all the forums" linking back to a semi-suggestive tweet relating to Anime, or whatever the dream wanted to provoke me with.


    This is relevant to the above posting. Laugh, facepalm,.... Do whatever you want with this information. It's random.


    -----------


    2) Simple Gestures Goes A Long Way - Canadian textures for Planes (MF2020):


    Even if I sound like a broken record I'm going to re-note how weird WW2 naval developers are (or any one covering war, after Silent Hunter 3) claiming how difficult it is. While they claim it's "difficult" or how Canadians are "minor nation", yadda, yadda, yadda. Or how VR is "allegedly dying" I'm finding more and more surprises within the Flight Sim community.


    It should be as simple as we see it in the Flight SIm 2020 community.


    BAM!

    RCAF - F-14A Fictional Canadian Livery:

    https://flightsim.to/file/2236…sqn-fictional-livery-only


    BAM!

    Just Flight Hawk T1 RCAF Royal Canadian Air Force livery.

    https://flightsim.to/file/2257…canadian-air-force-livery


    And the great thing is? Rising World can be this customizable also, or so we hope. For what the plugins had shown for Java, Rising World can be even more so as customizable so whatever I'm showing here simply shows how tardy certain game developers are. Sure, development time, and funding. Even so, when a developer truly cares they make the impossible, possible. I've heard stories from Red51 making the impossible, possible. Even if he had to pull his hair out over something liquidy looking like chrome, he made it possible. Same with Steam friends integration.


    Even if I may piss him off, he pulls through giving us things we actually need in the game. Seriously.

    I'm proudly flying my TBM9 under the Canadian colours, as with the Beech King Air under the Canadian Coast Guard colours. Simple gestures like these is what I wish from various navy game developers. I always end up being viewed as an "obnoxious troll", or whatever nonsense people want to gaslight me as. Then I see Flight Sim 2020 doing what I desire and I get happy again. I mean no disrespect to Red51, I however need to share a game to prove a point to show how things should be done inside and out.


    (King Air, TBM9, and Cessna Citation CJ4. I haven't used the Cessna in an actual flight because it doesn't have the terrain panels as the TBM9 and King Air does.)



    But no, adding Canadians and anything else is going to corrupt the game, cause the world to explode, and yadda, yadda. I've heard it all. :monocle:
