GO WATCH A MOVIE
Next up on Worth Reading: The other team should just fucking let me win when I play baseball.Β
well this isnβt necessarily a bad point. there are games with great stories and really awful shoehorned fighting sequences. then you also have handicapped/disabled gamers who donβt necessarily have the dexterity to finish a game but would still like to be able to.
optionalΒ βcakewalkβ modes arenβt that bad of an idea.
what if i want to just see the story of the game and dont want to actually play it? like??
as it is i would never pay for a bioshock game or a fallout game but i am very interested in the story. so i just watch youtube videos of it. they could get money from me if they sold the skip combat mode
iβm a games developer and an avid gamer and i really really think games should let you skip combat
honestly one of my favourite things about la noire was when you failed a sequence twice the game was like βyo do you just wanna skip this bit?βthe gaming industry/community has a huge problem with accessibility tbh. like, thank god for standardised control schemes (although bring back full customisation jfc not enough games have that anymore) but fights require time, literacy in both that type of gaming & in the individual game, you need to be able to navigate the system which can be anywhere from slightly difficult to hellish for people with visual/audio processing disorders. and tbh sometimes you just wanna enjoy the story and not get stressed the hell out doing the sAME FIGHT 700 times. itβs why i always put a game on easy/casual when Iβm replaying unless iβm specifically going for difficulty based achievements.not to mention SO MANY GAMES have either poorly designed battles or fights that have been shoved in for no reason other than to pad out the game (dxhr & da2 come to mind immediately) that sometimes itβd honestly improve the gameplay to just skip them altogether
Imagine if you were a gamer with arthritis or MS or some other disability that took away your ability to click buttons quickly, and every fight became as frustrating as THAT GODDAMN DA: ORIGINS OH FUCK IβM ON FIRE SLIDE PUZZLE.Β
Yeah. Skipping combat might seem like a not bad idea then.
Mass Effect 3 has this:
[Screenshot from a Mass Effect 3 menu, with title:Β βChoose Your Experienceβ, showing the optionsΒ βactionβ,Β βrole playingβ andΒ βstoryβ.]
βActionβ makes most story choices for you and conversations become straight up cutscenes.Β βRole playingβ is the default experience, both challenging gameplay and character/story building. AndΒ βstoryβ has the roleplaying butΒ very easy combat, letting you breeze through it. (You also have a βcasualβ difficulty setting thatβs a bit more rewarding but still pretty easy.)
The thing about video games (particularly RPGs or in general games that allow you to explore or direct the story) is that the interactivity is what makes it different from movies or watching LPs on youtube. And Iβve played games that got FAR stronger emotional reactions out of me simply because I had to carry out the actions myself rather than just watching. And that experience should be more accessible.
Because SHOCKINGLY: games arenβt always about winning, or being good at it. Itβs about having fun. This is kindergarten education here.
Yeah, it always baffles me when I see people react so negatively to a perfectly reasonable suggestion like this.
Why the hell shouldnβt games let you skip combat if you want to? Why shouldnβt there be a super-duper-easy-peasy mode for everything? No-one is gonna force YOU to play it like that if you donβt want to! Continue to be as hardcore as you like!
I just donβt understand the resistance at all. What weβre talking about is simply having more options for gamers. Youβre adding something that would make games more accessible and fun for loads of new fans, and youβre not taking ANYTHING away from existing fans.
Likeβ¦do youβ¦not want more people to enjoy these games?? Do you really hate the idea of other people having fun so much that youβll rile against it even when it literally has no effect on you or your experience whatsoever?? Are you honestly that selfish??
I am *horrifically* bad at gaming, but itβs a genre that Iβm intensely interested in and very desperately want to be more immersed in. I would HAPPILY buy so many more games if combat was a skippable option.Β
Not to mention one of the best indie games out right now is pretty much telling you if you want the best ending, donβt fight.
Yeah, I hate the elitist mentality that only those ~*~*hardcore*~*~ enough should be allowed to enjoy video games. I mean, gaming should be an experience to be had and not just an obstacle to clear, right?Then again, my poor mental health situation and chronic pain+mobility issues on my right hand means that my gaming options are severely limited nowadays. So Iβm all about making gaming accessible for everyone in the first place.Anyone who thinks gaming will be ruined by making it more accessible need to realize that they have already ruined gaming for many.
Anyone who thinks gaming will be ruined by making it more accessible need to realize that they have already ruined gaming for many.
Iβve had to stop playing certain games because all the button mashing aggravated my carpal tunnel pain, and I rage quit some because they had a super frustrating part that I could never get past. Games should be fun, not a test of endurance. At least, they should let you skip the difficult parts you are unable to do. They can still have a hardcore mode for people who enjoy a challenge. They would still get to brag about their accomplishments without preventing others from enjoying an otherwise fun game.
Unpopular opinion but just watch the game on youtube then? Why spend money when you donβt get the full experience?
The different between watching and playing is
Watching youβre seeing someoneβs experience
Playing youβre experiencing it
I watched a lot of gameplay and playing some of the games myself have a very different feels to it
Understandable but why waste money on a 70 bucks game if you cut out like 30 or 40 percent? Thatβs not worth it
I have to go 50/50 on that one because I tend to avoid fights in AC:
Syndicate
Isnβt the whole point of AC to avoid fighting? Or did that change since Brotherhood?
Syndicate is based on victorian era & thereβs gangsI literally had to hide because I keep walking to area higher than my current level because of main story line

Mass Effect 3 has this:

Yeah, it always baffles me when I see people react so negatively to a perfectly reasonable suggestion like this.
Why the hell shouldnβt games let you skip combat if you want to? Why shouldnβt there be a super-duper-easy-peasy mode for everything? No-one is gonna force YOU to play it like that if you donβt want to! Continue to be as hardcore as you like!
I just donβt understand the resistance at all. What weβre talking about is simply having more options for gamers. Youβre adding something that would make games more accessible and fun for loads of new fans, and youβre not taking ANYTHING away from existing fans.
Likeβ¦do youβ¦not want more people to enjoy these games?? Do you really hate the idea of other people having fun so much that youβll rile against it even when it literally has no effect on you or your experience whatsoever?? Are you honestly that selfish??

Understandable but why waste money on a 70 bucks game if you cut out like 30 or 40 percent? Thatβs not worth it: solaredarisen:

ladies and gentlemen we have officially reached theΒ βin case a nuclear attack happensβ phaseβ¦β¦. [x]
This shit is wild.
Wtf a table finna do for anybody?? Thereβs basically nothing you can do but die
theyβre doing this to give people a sense of safety , even though we full well know this wonβt work at all.
ALRIGHT KIDDOS LISTEN UP! I did emergency management for the air force which involves this fun thing called Plume Modelling (aka chart the path of death for a given bomb based on its payload, distance, type of detonation, etc) and let me tell you some actual LEGITβ’ methods of minimizing damage to your life.
Unless you are within the vaporization zone (where you turn into a fucking shadow because of your proximity to the blast) there is a specific order of events nuke blasts cause and there are ways to protect against these things.
1. There is this thing called a flash to bang ratio. It is really freaking important. The first wave from a nuke is a blinding flash of light that can literally FRY YOUR RETINAS. If you believe that a nuke has just dropped on your city, HIDE AND DONT LOOK AT IT. @shesheistyy a good solid table is good for this but youβre way less likely to go blind if you get to an internal room with no windows, especially one below ground.
2. After the flash there will be the bang. If the time between the flash and the bang, counted in Mississippi seconds, is more than 10 seconds you MIGHT survive and just die of cancer later. If itβs between five and 10 buckle up kiddos because the worst is yet to come. And well if itβs less than 3 you wonβt live long enough to remember this. These are loose estimates only.
3. The βbangβ usually announces the arrival of the fire ball. Yes. A massive heat shock will erupt from the core of the bomb and light pretty much every thing it comes into contact with, including your flesh, on fire. Back to that whole βmetal buildings undergroundβ thing. Thereβs really no getting around the whole getting lit on fire if youβre too close thing.
4. Fallout. When the bomb goes off it sucks all of the shit it just vaporized up into the air with it and as the blast cools, it begins to rain down the radioactive fucked molten wreckage onto everyone in a huge radius. Just because the fallout you can see has stopped doesnβt mean the molecular radiation has stopped.
The survival factors for nuclear blasts are time, distance and shielding. The longer it takes for it to get to you the less of it there is. The further away from the source the less dead you are. Want to survive? Put 6 feet of concrete and/or 2 feet of lead between you and everything else. Yes. Those loons with their bunkers actually got something right.
NOW! About radiation! If you are so fortunate as to survive one of these blasts and not be vaporized or burnt to a crisp or die of radiation poisoning within hours, you need to understand the types of radiation.
Gamma radiation is the most βsevereβ in that it can penetrate your flesh through your clothes and house, causing severe illness. Gamma radiation fucks with your cell walls and disrupts your DNA. It kills you in hours, months or years. Some people survive decades. Think of gamma like the sun. Too much exposure gives you cancer.
Now Beta, on the other hand, think of Beta particles like sand on the beach. Its in the air. Its in your clothes, in the creases of your fingers. But beta particles can burn through your flesh or get into your blood stream through open wounds. Luckily they can be stopped with nonporous materials, like rubber, or foil. Make that two points for the loony conspiracy theorists. Aluminum foil does protect from beta radiation.
And finally, Alpha radiation. Think of alpha Radiation like dust motes. It takes a high density filter to prevent you from breathing them in and if youβre surrounded by rubble theyβre probably everywhere. Alpha particles do the same thing as beta particles in terms of getting into your system and wrecking your shit.
So! Survival? Most likely based on dumb luck. But! If you think youβre being nuked
1. get under ground or at least to an internal room of the building if no other options are available.
2. CLOSE YOUR EYES. Curl into the fetal position to protect your orifices and vital organs from gamma radiation and get low to the ground to reduce damage from the blast and potential ceiling collapse.
3.You will still feel the flash pass over you. Count. One, two, threeβ¦ If you arenβt vaporized yet keep counting. Pray to every god ever imagined that you get to 10 before you hear the bang.
4. Bang. Try not to shit yourself. The fireball will follow almost instantly if youβre in range. Be prepared to start rolling to put yourself out.
5. Fallout rains down. Do not open your eyes. Do not stop praying. As hard as it is because time will feel as if it has slowed to a crawl, try not to leave your position for at least 30 minutes, although 60 minutes is better. At 30 minutes, only 60% of the potential fall out has fallen but by 60 minutes, up to 90% may have come down.
6. Remember, Alpha and beta radiation are particles. Do not put anything in your body that has not been thoroughly washed, dusted of or came from a sealed package. Point 3 for the conspiracy theorists, hot pockets and canned food are probably still safe. Do not leave shelter without goggles, and try to wrap yourself in a minimum of those weird space blankets but rubber and metal lined suits (like hazmat suits) are best for the job.
Good luck in the future apocalypse!

Look whats Relevant againβ¦
I wonder if thereβs any where to watch White Light, Black Rain. Saw it back in highschool.
History repeats and all that jazz.
After all,Β Itβs not likeΒ βduck and coverβ and other nuclear protection methods of dubious qualityΒ werenβt a mainstream in the Cold War or anythingβ¦
Weβve been here before.
Itβs just the first time around for us younger crowd.
Stay safe.
Reminder that according to the Doomsday Clock, we are currently at greater threat of nuclear annihilation than we were even at the height of the Cold War.
Nukemap for βhow far from ground zero must I be to survive thisβ
https://nuclearsecrecy.com/nukemap/
Likeβ¦ Manhattan might be toast but that doesnβt mean the citizens of Long Island shouldnβt know how to mitigate their terrible fuckin situation just because Manhattan is toast.
If downtown Chicago is at the center of a nuclear bombing when Iβm at work Iβm dead, but if Iβm home I have a chance to shelter in place and then bag up the cats and go crash with friends in Wisconsin.
And also how absofuckinglutely horrifying is it that we need to know this shit?

ladies and gentlemen we have officially reached theΒ βin case a nuclear attack happensβ phaseβ¦β¦. [x]
This shit is wild.
Wtf a table finna do for anybody?? Thereβs basically nothing you can do but die
theyβre doing this to give people a sense of safety , even though we full well know this wonβt work at all.
ALRIGHT KIDDOS LISTEN UP! I did emergency management for the air force which involves this fun thing called Plume Modelling (aka chart the path of death for a given bomb based on its payload, distance, type of detonation, etc) and let me tell you some actual LEGITβ’ methods of minimizing damage to your life.
Unless you are within the vaporization zone (where you turn into a fucking shadow because of your proximity to the blast) there is a specific order of events nuke blasts cause and there are ways to protect against these things.
1. There is this thing called a flash to bang ratio. It is really freaking important. The first wave from a nuke is a blinding flash of light that can literally FRY YOUR RETINAS. If you believe that a nuke has just dropped on your city, HIDE AND DONT LOOK AT IT. @shesheistyy a good solid table is good for this but youβre way less likely to go blind if you get to an internal room with no windows, especially one below ground.
2. After the flash there will be the bang. If the time between the flash and the bang, counted in Mississippi seconds, is more than 10 seconds you MIGHT survive and just die of cancer later. If itβs between five and 10 buckle up kiddos because the worst is yet to come. And well if itβs less than 3 you wonβt live long enough to remember this. These are loose estimates only.
3. The βbangβ usually announces the arrival of the fire ball. Yes. A massive heat shock will erupt from the core of the bomb and light pretty much every thing it comes into contact with, including your flesh, on fire. Back to that whole βmetal buildings undergroundβ thing. Thereβs really no getting around the whole getting lit on fire if youβre too close thing.
4. Fallout. When the bomb goes off it sucks all of the shit it just vaporized up into the air with it and as the blast cools, it begins to rain down the radioactive fucked molten wreckage onto everyone in a huge radius. Just because the fallout you can see has stopped doesnβt mean the molecular radiation has stopped.
The survival factors for nuclear blasts are time, distance and shielding. The longer it takes for it to get to you the less of it there is. The further away from the source the less dead you are. Want to survive? Put 6 feet of concrete and/or 2 feet of lead between you and everything else. Yes. Those loons with their bunkers actually got something right.
NOW! About radiation! If you are so fortunate as to survive one of these blasts and not be vaporized or burnt to a crisp or die of radiation poisoning within hours, you need to understand the types of radiation.
Gamma radiation is the most βsevereβ in that it can penetrate your flesh through your clothes and house, causing severe illness. Gamma radiation fucks with your cell walls and disrupts your DNA. It kills you in hours, months or years. Some people survive decades. Think of gamma like the sun. Too much exposure gives you cancer.
Now Beta, on the other hand, think of Beta particles like sand on the beach. Its in the air. Its in your clothes, in the creases of your fingers. But beta particles can burn through your flesh or get into your blood stream through open wounds. Luckily they can be stopped with nonporous materials, like rubber, or foil. Make that two points for the loony conspiracy theorists. Aluminum foil does protect from beta radiation.
And finally, Alpha radiation. Think of alpha Radiation like dust motes. It takes a high density filter to prevent you from breathing them in and if youβre surrounded by rubble theyβre probably everywhere. Alpha particles do the same thing as beta particles in terms of getting into your system and wrecking your shit.
So! Survival? Most likely based on dumb luck. But! If you think youβre being nuked
1. get under ground or at least to an internal room of the building if no other options are available.
2. CLOSE YOUR EYES. Curl into the fetal position to protect your orifices and vital organs from gamma radiation and get low to the ground to reduce damage from the blast and potential ceiling collapse.
3.You will still feel the flash pass over you. Count. One, two, threeβ¦ If you arenβt vaporized yet keep counting. Pray to every god ever imagined that you get to 10 before you hear the bang.
4. Bang. Try not to shit yourself. The fireball will follow almost instantly if youβre in range. Be prepared to start rolling to put yourself out.
5. Fallout rains down. Do not open your eyes. Do not stop praying. As hard as it is because time will feel as if it has slowed to a crawl, try not to leave your position for at least 30 minutes, although 60 minutes is better. At 30 minutes, only 60% of the potential fall out has fallen but by 60 minutes, up to 90% may have come down.
6. Remember, Alpha and beta radiation are particles. Do not put anything in your body that has not been thoroughly washed, dusted of or came from a sealed package. Point 3 for the conspiracy theorists, hot pockets and canned food are probably still safe. Do not leave shelter without goggles, and try to wrap yourself in a minimum of those weird space blankets but rubber and metal lined suits (like hazmat suits) are best for the job.
Good luck in the future apocalypse!

Look whats Relevant againβ¦
I wonder if thereβs any where to watch White Light, Black Rain. Saw it back in highschool.
History repeats and all that jazz.
After all,Β Itβs not likeΒ βduck and coverβ and other nuclear protection methods of dubious qualityΒ werenβt a mainstream in the Cold War or anythingβ¦
Weβve been here before.
Itβs just the first time around for us younger crowd.
Stay safe.
Reminder that according to the Doomsday Clock, we are currently at greater threat of nuclear annihilation than we were even at the height of the Cold War.
Nukemap for βhow far from ground zero must I be to survive thisβ

Likeβ¦ Manhattan might be toast but that doesnβt mean the citizens of Long Island shouldnβt know how to mitigate their terrible fuckin situation just because Manhattan is toast.
If downtown Chicago is at the center of a nuclear bombing when Iβm at work Iβm dead, but if Iβm home I have a chance to shelter in place and then bag up the cats and go crash with friends in Wisconsin.
And also how absofuckinglutely horrifying is it that we need to know this shit?

This is one of the things that fallout 76 exposed. People reported bugs in earlier releases, nothing happened; so modders wrote workarounds. Then if the game still crashed, the player was informed with a laugh: βmodded games are not supported! βBut you canβt MOD fallout 76.Suddenly it was obvious how neglected the bug reports were. Did Bethesda even read them? Year after year, customers had filed them. Were they just tossed in the bin? : the forum posts from 2005
