I’M SO ABOUT IT
kanye is patching his albums days after release so don’t let anyone ever tell you video games haven’t changed the world

Hey I realize I probably posted about this a while back, and that it may be a bit niche of an issue but I was just reminded and it bears repeating
to ANYONE WHO USES FL STUDIO
Be aware that if you uninstall for any reason (like to install a newer version), it WILL delete everything in its install folder. No exceptions.
Not even your saved project files, which by default save to a folder inside its install folder. It WILL NOT MENTION THIS at uninstall time, it will NOT ask if you’re sure, it will absolutely delete all of your work forever.

and much like videogames, kanye being able to do this has entirely destroyed the quality of his output

crunch is inevitable in such project-based endeavours, it’s good and in most high-energy workplaces people will want to do it anyway.
the problem is it being unpaid and excessively lengthy.
yes, people will “want to do it anyway” because everyone who doesn’t was already screened out by interviewers

hm. i’ve been using FL Studio since version 4 in 2004, have uninstalled and reinstalled countless times and have never lost a project file. i’m wondering, though, because i also took pains to back my stuff up periodically and therefore i’m trying to remember if i ever had to rely on this.
if this happened, i don’t think it’s normal behavior. are you 100% sure all of your flp files are gone?
edit: i’m currently researching this on the image-line forums. saw a staff admin post something that tracks with my experience in a thread with a user having a similar issue; they updated, now they can’t see any of their projects.
FL Studio installations can’t delete files, they will be somewhere you left them.
so in your case you said you uninstalled first. i’m trying to remember if there’s a checkbox or something to remove user files during uninstallation, but i can’t remember.
at any rate, i am definitely curious about this. i am sort of gathering that this is already from awhile back, but i think something went specifically wrong in your case. maybe i should try backing my stuff up tonight and then uninstalling FLS and see what happens.
BIG LORE IMPLICATIONS

I want this to be a reaction to the reaction that diablo 3 was too colorful and bright by having diablo 4 be played in pitch darkness
diablo 4 is an experimental sound-design-only game with no visuals turns out

My immediate impression of this trailer is corporate going “Make it more like Dark Souls, the kids love Dark Souls”.
Like sure there was the ‘too colorful’ backlash but this is clearly Soulsy looking, at least aesthetically.
You all should make sure to watch a clip of the speech they have right before or after the trailer, I forget which, and count the number of times they say “dark”. Very reminiscent of early ‘00s games with attitude.

the game looks alright. listening to these people is not inspiring, but I guess on some level slavishly copying diablo 2 and smoothing it out is hard to fuck up too bad. probably you’d just be better off sticking with PoE if you’re really into that idea, though.
path of exile doesnt design their menus for console use like diablo did
EDIT NOT MENUS INVENTORY
i will play this game in seven years after its fixed and all the expansions are out, and i will turn up the brightness until i can see the grey fucking skull completely you cant control me with your brightness recommendations
