This is the best thread on the forum. But hey, I might be a bit self-baised All of creation is just your own work reflected back at you

I work in Unity (of course ) Although Unreal also makes for a great pun. No

These are awesome. Even I learn things reading my own words.

The idea of 3D death IS the game. The cheat code to the game is realizing that death is a game. This game analogy reminds me of my video: Life Is A Maze -
There are very different self help markets. YT is the cheapest. Eben caters to a small niche of elite customers who are serious business folk. He is not catering to mouthbreathing YTbers who hesitate to pay $1 for an iPhone game.

I am not creative enough to make such shit up. -
Very much yes. I have been doing game dev on the side lately. I love working on my own designs. Teaching by itself is not nearly creative or artistic enough for my needs.

That's because it's actually faster to code than to use silly GUI buttons for logic. When you are making a game, the efficiency of your tools and processes is crucial. You need to be as efficient as possible because the workload is crazy enough as it is.

At one point it was one of the most downloaded mods for Oblivion. - - - - -

I must say, it does make for a pretty cool toy. I am amazed at how diverse Dream's creations are: If you don't take it as a serious game development tool, but rather a toy to tinker around with, then I think it's successful at that. Of course it's a niche product. So obviously it won't sell well. But if you're into quirky stuff, it might be a good toy to explore. It reminds me of psychedelics. They don't produce a livable reality, but they are fun to explore the fringes of consciousness.

The problem with user-generated content is that 99% of it is crap. It takes a genius artist to make a game that's worth playing or a film that's worth watching. That's true of all art. It must be done at a world class level in order to be worth your time. Even most professional games, with 100 man-years of work, are not worth playing.

My Oblivion mod took 8 months of full-time work to create. And most of that time was spent working outside the editor, in Photoshop and 3dsmax. Even learning something like The Elderscrolls Construction Kit will take you months of frustrating trail and error. And you will feel ridiculously limited in what it allows you to create.

They expect you to create a serious game using a PS4 controller? Lolz. Truly a pipe dream. There should be no surprise that they failed. You aren't making a serious game unless you got at least 2 monitors.

If you care about preserving your nervous system you should be much more concerned about your food and water than about psychedelics. People fear-monger about psychedelics and then go eat some SAD crap without batting an eye. -

What's what Unreal and Unity are up to. But it still requires a ton of coding, animation, art, design, etc. You just can't eliminate those aspects of game development. There is a serious limit to how much you can simplify this. The more you simplify it, the less creative power you get. There already exist game engines which require no coding (GameMaker). The problem is, the games you can build with such engines are so limited that no one wants to play them. You cannot build a good game that way. Games requires massive customization because uniqueness is a key selling point for games. Even with something as crazy complex as the Unreal Engine, you can tell that Unreal-built games all have a samey quality, look, and feel to them -- and it's not good. Ideally your game would have a custom engine to give it total uniqueness. Even if you could eliminate all coding from game development, you'd still be left with decades of man-years of art, sound, and design labor. Just to fine-tune the loot tables on a AAA games is a full-time job. You need a guy working full time for 4 years in Excel just so the loot in your game isn't shit. And that doesn't even take into account all the artists needed to create the loot models, textures, animations, shaders, etc. People seriously do not fathom how much labor games require. Way more than film.

Humans are social creatures. Politics is always played. Who you know and befriend is always gonna be highly relevant to moving up the pyramid. It's time to wise up about how social mobility works.

@Rajneeshpuram Yes, let's trust the word of a guy who hires hookers to shit in his mouth. What could possibly go wrong? -
It's lonely being God But also wonderful. - - - - - @Vagos 1) Most people actually cannot be helped. If you want to help people, you have to learn how to distinguished the ones who can from the ones who can't. You cannot help a mind that is closed. 2) You also have made a shadow out of those who cannot be helped. You have to realize that ignorance is a part of reality you must integrate as part of your Total Self.

Developing a single high quality game requires so much manual, creative, and complex labor that there is no way anyone is going to dumb that process down to make it accessible to normies. The complexity of even a small game is staggering and they take 10s to 100s of man-years to create. Game creation will never be easy, fast, cheap, or accessible. That's why it failed. It was an impossible dream.

Here's the solution: 1) A Tier 2 person needs to channel her care and love in constructive creative ways. Your LP is not debating fools. This is a waste of your consciousness and love. Rather you must help mankind ON YOUR TERMS. So rather than debating ignorant people, go create a course or a school or something else that can truly help people. Debating people is one of the least constructive uses of your intelligence. If your LP is to teach, then fucking TEACH! Do it seriously, not arguing with fools. Make yourself a serious teacher. A seriosmus teacher doesn't argue, she is too busy teaching. Be careful to not let people distract you from your true LP with petty human bullshit and games. Stop playing games with them. You're angry because you're not actually doing your LP. 2) After years of experiencing it, you will learn to cope with ignorance and not let it faze you. As you become ridiculously conscious, you will become able to not let ignorance affect you. You are not conscious enough for that yet.

Not gonna say until it's done.

That's why it's combined with ALA. DMSA doesn't cross the blood brain barrier but that doesn't mean it doesn't work on all the other organs. The brain is not the only thing at stake here. It can, but it's not like these tests are done often. And after the test you continue with detox. Testing is important to get a picture of your progress. Otherwise you are blind. Xray and MRI are also not good for you, but it's outweighed by having a clear picture of your condition so you can cure it.

The dude was 75. How much longer was he supposed to live? If anything he got away easy for the shit he done.
