It's the vertical line that blinks in text boxes and documents when you edit. Other than that I don't know much about it.

Hey, cool giveaway! Unfortunately I can't run any of these games yet, stuck with a potato laptop, but I'll enter for Tales of Arise just so I can finally know what that series is about. Some discord peeps I know love them so yeah. Here's to me getting a pc that can run these games in a few years.

You miss all the shots you don't take, keep rolling.

You aren't the only one, i haven't watched them either.

 

Some context: So far all I've done has been passively watching game design analysis type videos as well as Unity implode on itself without really jumping into gamedev. I only got inspired rather recently to take the dive.

I don't think I'll be able to dabble with the engine just yet (busy schedule and all that), but I want to at least have some rough direction on where to go and figure the rest out myself.

My main concerns are art and programming, mostly because I have no experience for those. I do have some experience with graphic design and figma however, so its not like I'm jumping in with no skillset.

The plan I had in my head was: learn UI > create a basic visual novel > create a basic rpg game > (a few more steps) > "reasonable/realistic to make" dream game.

Pretty sure i remember Harari mentioning his country Israel "not getting the memo" or something to that effect with the war thing. Double checked the book real quick and he does mention that conflict could arise in some of these countries despite us breaking the law of the jungle (conflict being natural and inevitable).

i feel like this set up would be best in a game that is very spammy with mouse clicks, say Minecraft 1.8 pvp. i don't know how those people do it, but given 2 keys to press on my left hand rather than 1 on my mouse, i could maybe stand a chance with the clicks per second.

In my experience, while osu is a good warm up it's not a substitute for a 3d aim trainer. Unless you are using mcosu with some modifications - using the fps mod and making the circle size smaller, among other things - the aim in osu doesn't transfer one to one to shooters. While it certainly helps getting the hand movements like the flicks and such ready, 2d just isn't the same as 3d since you can't even map the sens to be the same, its kind of impossible actually.

uhhh, I'm not really sure what would happen in Muse Dash. if it was a Log Horizon situation where i assume the role the character i probably can't hit anything to the beat lol
