10·5 days agoThat took me far too long, then it jump-scared me.
Ha, you’re absolutely right. I don’t know what I was thinking! Fixed.
Yeah, is satire ok here too?
I have another intentionally funny one too. Maybe I’ll drop it somewhere else just in case.
Invention that will seem obvious after it’s introduced: a phone camera that can film in landscape while being held vertically.
Why don’t we have this??
People turning their phones to film in landscape will probably be one of those things that’ll look silly in old media once this is changed.
11·13 days agoI had no idea what I was doing as a kid, and figuring out through trial and error which combinations and placements of units would cause them to do cool combo attacks was maddening.
I didn’t play the original Tactics Ogre, but I played a bit of the recent remake. It’s very much like FF Tactics, where you move individual units around on a grid, take turns, and adjust the direction they’re facing, etc.
Ogre Battle 64 is more like a full battle map with free, simultaneous movement. You traverse the battle map as sort of an overworld (?), then it switches to the autobattle combat interface when units run into each other.
They have some similarities, but I personally enjoy the Ogre Battle 64 approach more.
Not sure, but this appears to be the creator’s youtube page about it:
That’s so much. It seems to be getting a small spike in attention these days with some recent games inspired by it (like Unicorn Overlord, or a popular indie game called Symphony of War).
It’s an incredible game, but it feels like very few people were aware of it (at least in the US). The closest AAA game to it now would be Unicorn Overlord, if you’ve seen that.
You build squads of units and customize who’s in each party and which tile they stand on, then send them out to a battle map where you can direct them. When they run into enemies, it auto-battles sort of like Fire Emblem.
That’s perfect
Every day??

THIS is what I’m talking about!
How can we call ourselves a modern society without King of the Hill paintball?
No, let’s just move him to a different monastery.
Yeah, it’s unfortunately good advice. Hearing it from a hiring manager in a “dance my puppet” way makes me want to vomit though.
