I haven't had a good floor time in a while so 3 am is a great time to wake up my boyfriend tripping over a box so I can go sit on the floor and stare at the wall

I read a post this morning about a man feeling ignored by the doctors while his wife gave birth.

In the grand scheme of things my 850 watt computer powered by nuclear is not killing the planet but my point still stands.

Very odd to include endless mode and no good ending. Like encouraging waste and publishing sustainability...

22.11.2025 06:30 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Idk I really liked the game obviously but I felt forced into doing the thing I didn't want to do just so it could end and I could, ironically, stop using IRL electricity.

22.11.2025 06:27 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Also, it seems there are nuclear reactors in the game but I never saw them.

I'd...like to see them though. Because the building of them is def not a zero-emission feat, but they do make up for it after several operating years. Long term investment, ya know.

22.11.2025 06:27 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Well. It didn't. And in the process of me sitting and waiting an hour+, I burned more IRL energy.

And I feel like having an endless mode in a game making commentary about global warming...misses the point.

But at least my energy comes from nuclear.

Rid*

Anywaaaaays, kinda bummed that there is no "good" ending.

The minute I got the world heat index gauge, I painstakingly downgraded, then upgraded, to fully solar.

And then just kinda waited for the game to end..

Got really into @faceminer.bsky.social tonight. My god, what a great game and commentary on current tech trends.

Can't wait to see the end, I've completely ridden my set up from emissions and am riding that solar panel farm rn lol

Oh yeah, and they worked/may still work at 343i/Halo studios. It was genuinely pathetic.

They also argued with me, a AAA level designer, that bad game design can be fixed with good music????? ๐Ÿคฃ

Really made me bitter but I got the last laugh tbh, I got in the industry with my own work. ๐Ÿ’ช

I don't want to post examples, but it's in how the head sits on the neck, and neck length in general.

I'm seeing a LOT of heads basically floating forward off of the neck and really long necks.

I particularly enjoy drawing necks so it's getting to me lol

I don't think it's AI. My only guess is that there's a highly stylized reference tool floating around, like JustSketchMe or something, with this particular issue.

Or I'm just developing my critical eye more, idk

I'm seeing a lot of the exact same anatomical mistake across several artists' portfolios and I'm honestly just genuinely curious why it's happening...

I have a friend who is not huffing the hopium with me, but let's look at the facts:

1. They are making a new Half Life game called HLX

2. New engine, new HL game like gold source to source (Alyx doesn't count because glorified tech demo)

3. The GabeCube would look nice with a new game to buyers
