- Comment on Final Fantasy XVI - Sometimes you just want to turn your brain off and punch big, dumb monsters 9 hours ago:
turn off your brain>
This has not been my experience with practically any Japanese RPG, haha. Each time I’ve tried to play a Final Fantasy game, I’ve gotten immediately turned off by the complex menus/rules, and needlessly long “click through” tutorials showing me every menu page with an accompanying small novel of instructions. Its not that I’m afraid of having to learn a game (I’m a big fan of Paradox games if that’s any indicator), I just find the presentation of it all such a slog.

The first step towards privatizing an industry is eroding public confidence in the existing program. They have absolutely no intention of improving the program, they just want to make it shitty enough that people stop believing in it. Once that happens, 45 will start shilling, and some lucky company will swoop in and take it over.
Textbook…

Nice! Glad you got it sorted, happy printing!
- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week? 1 week ago:
I started playing this game that popped up in the PSN game library called Arcade Paradise a few days ago. I downloaded it thinking it would be just another “arcade collection” type game, but it ended up being much more in depth than that.
Rather, its a somewhat simple management game where you grow a small arcade in the back of your fathers laundromat, but you can play each of the games you purchase. Further, you have to play the games and complete challenges in them to increase their fame/revenue.
All in all I’ve really enjoyed it so far. The decision to wrap the arcade games into a broader narrative and attach challenges to them was a really great decision i think. When I’ve checked out other arcade collection games, i’ve had a tendency to breeze through the catalog without spending much time in it before I’m bored. In this, you have to take your time with each game, and having challenges to complete does a good job of holding my interest and motivating me to get better at each one.
The games are all reskinned versions of classic games that most fans of the genre would be familiar with. Pong, Galaga, missile command, etc. I will say that the physics based games like Pool (infuriating) and Foosball (basically jmpossible) suck, but they’re easily ignored.
Overall, I’d give it a 8/10. It reminds me a lot of something that Devolved Digital would put out, if you like them.
- Comment on Generational trauma is a form of psychological evolutionary adaptation. 2 weeks ago:
When I refer to “generational trauma” I’m referring to the psychological and emotional affects of trauma that are passed down. For example, say a war veteran returns home but doesn’t get any treatment for their PTSD. They start a family and have kids, but physically abuse them. That child may then grow up to physically abuse their own children, and the cycle continues.

Gotta say I’m a bit perplexed by the negative reaction. Not sure what people expect from ‘shower thoughts’, haha, but such is the internet I guess. Perhaps the internet community is its own “genus” of personality that has independently evolved to the point where I can’t comprehend it. :D

I mean, the world would be a better place with more empathy, no?
- Comment on Generational trauma is a form of psychological evolutionary adaptation. 2 weeks ago:
I see your point, though I wouldn’t necessarily view society, or a “toxic culture”, as the medium, but rather a group of individuals who share similar generational trauma/nurturing. Another way to look at it would be that a Global/National/Regional/Familial "culture is the equivalent to Class/Order/Family/Genus in my example.
What I find interesting about generational trauma/nurturing, is that it usually evolves independent of our blood relations. Friends, teachers, community leaders, etc., each have their own level of influence on both individuals, and the broader culture, which often produces downstream effects for later generations.

When I had a similar issue to this I resolved it by adjusting my retraction settings, specifically retraction distance and speed. I think that may be the case here, as the layers most dramatically affected appear to be those with the most retractions taking place. Depending on the material and the style of printer you have (direct drive or Bowden) your settings will be different, but I would start be dropping the retraction distance and see how that changes things.

Awesome! I resin printed some batarangs myself! I did four different styles from different movies, then picked up a shadowbox frame and some red velvet and mounted them vertically with some wire. I ended up giving that to my younger brother as well, lol.

Printed plastic, but I’m glad my paint job made you question! I do wish the gears turned, but the model designer was trying to emulate what he saw in the game, which didn’t seem to care about real functional parts, haha
