what, overclocking? i don’t know if that’d be particularly useful. it’s generally either going to break the whole game or it isn’t, and if it doesn’t and you’re not a purist you may as well just leave it on. overclocking isn’t the same as fast forwarding, you’d just be eliminating some slowdown if the game isn’t already locked down framerate wise (not a sure thing at all) and (in the case of using a disc speed multiplier) reducing some disc loading time.
you could definitely bind mute and fast forward to the same hotkey, though
can someone explain blaseball to me? it’s getting all this traction on The Twitter and I’m having a hard time with understanding the appeal - everyone is saying that it’s “like” getting into sports without actually having to be a fan of the outcomes of the games and stuff like that but I don’t really see why you can’t do that already? and now we’ve come full circle to games people creating a sport that I feel intimidated getting into because I have to read up on all the lore and shit behind the players and teams instead of just being able to watch the thing and come up with my own arbitrary reasons to like or dislike teams
I feel like secret base (sb nation video stuff) disproves the need for blaseball but I guess I don’t know things
it’s basically tabletop roleplaying as sports, the most interesting part is how the dev team can ship new “features” hilariously easily because it’s almost all text-based, so it winds up being like a modern MUD with gonzo popular adventure zone-style writing
I find the “and then this absurd thing happened, wow!!!” house style kind of tiresome at this point and I also like actual sports, but I think as a web game it’s pretty cool
I think I’m reacting mostly to the writing itself because like, if you’re making baseball as inscrutable to people who know about baseball as actual baseball is to people who don’t know about baseball, you might as well be making that horse-racing gambling game that @Sakurina quoted the devs as making earlier
is it twitter? it’s twitter isn’t it that’s why it’s a thing
On phone or iPad? Pixelmator Photo is straight up the GOAT for Actual Photo Editing but it is only on iPad. I use Darkroom to touch up photos taken with my phone on the phone itself. It is not ideal but works fine for what I need.
If you want to do the other junk Photoshop does instead of Actual Photo Editing, plain old Pixelmator is great on the iPad. It’s what I use to make all the Swan Song thumbnails. I don’t do any of that stuff on my phone so I dunno what’s good on there
affinity / reaper / davinci are pretty much competitive with adobe these days as a rule but the ipad version of affinity photo might be overkill with you
The difference I guess would be that, for Blaseball, it takes hours of actual engagement with the fandom and the game mechanics, and then the future developments of the game in action, to have bought in. When I guess you could read a couple episodes of Homestuck and like what you read and consider yourself in. But both are as involved with their communities.
