Can relate to Lew-lew's friend, I came up with a motto "meetings dont write code" .A couple of weeks dropping it around my scrum master and managers, and surprisingly our team no longer spend a 50% of the working week in dumb Agile rituals. Agile is already a big enough time waste on it's own, but doing anything in the civil service seems to require 3 weeks of meetings on top of that.
i was 11 when minecraft first game out, i bought it shortly after my friend showed me "surviving my first night in minecraft" I still play minecraft sometimes today, its certainly the only game i've played for over a decade now and still get decent enjoyment from. so based on my anecdotal quantified data. Yes i would have too say Minecraft is the best game of all time. Closely Followed by GTAV as i have also played this since launch now. which i believe was now over half a decade ago
Oh man, I felt like a genius back in the day when I figured out how to edit config.sys to have all these menu items so you could choose your boot "loadout", what stuff to load into memory as to save as much memory as possible and only load the stuff you really needed like CDrom driver.
People like me are even more productive on top of working in the office. So much distractions and people chatting in office. Then you have to catch up with work after endless chatting. When I run out of things to do I go seeking for more work. I even get anxious when it feels like my to do list isn't lined up.
4:30 I played through cyberpunk a few months ago, it was pretty good. bought it on instant gaming, got a key on gog for like 10-15€ or something, probably never will play it again (wish it was on xbox gamepass for this reason), but I'm 100% glad I waited until it was made a bit better and "fixed". personally didn't have many issues with the game itself, and the story really bummed me out at the end because I for some reason wanted to try out the two depressing endings after doing the nomad one. regrets, for some reason I just can't help but think about it a lot, like it's a video game, why do I get so invested in it
But if you are not invested in the story, then does it not mean that story was bad? CDPR are known for storytelling and atmosphere. Everything else in their games is fine, but not the focus.
@@DartNoobo Oh yeah, it's not a bad thing at all. It just means the game ends up making me think about the story, characters etc. for a long while after. and as some of it can be really depressing in cyberpunk, it negatively affects my mood :p Alternative is just to never play these games and stick to competitive pvp type games with 0 story or anything in them, but it gets very boring. Anyway, a lot of older games are 100% worth playing, like I recently started playing through the first 3 mass effect games, and they're great (albeit a bit jank because of the age)
They kind of glossed over it, but Sips' comment about how big games often have to (or feel like they have to) pivot mid-stream as the zeitgeist changes around them is really huge and arguably kind of dominates a lot of what gets produced now. Fortnite is probably the most visible example -- a game that was originally a (pretty fun! in my opinion) first person mine (suburban environments) / build / tower-defense vs. zombies game decided to try out a Battle Royale mode and became one of the most profitable and culturally ubiquitous games ever. It's tough to balance vision, passion and market dynamics innit.
I aggree with Pflax, i've been coming back to minecraft since I found "How to Survive the First Night". Thats 12 years. I can't say any other game that had the same impact on me or my life. I liked minecraft, i loved watching Yogs as a teenager, i even learned english after thousands of hours of Yogs videos actually. Man I miss those days.
Is Minecraft the best computer game ever game? No Is it one of the most influential games ever made? Absolutely I really liked minecraft, I played it a lot, installed tons of mods. It's got a huge community and I can't even count the amount of hours I've watched you guys at the Yogscast playing it. I knew of you from the WoW days but it was the minecraft let's play/ shadow of israphel series that made me into a fan like so many like me The quality of the game itself matters little in the end, it's undeniable that the entire gaming and even online word looks the way it is today partly thanks to that game
Wadjet Eye Games make and publish some bangers! I get together with some old mates once a month for "adventure night" where we play old and new adventure games, with the only rule being that we aren't supposed to remember the puzzles 😂 We recently (re-)completed "Tales of Monkey Island" (Telltale) because of that rule. But before that we played "Technobabylon" which was published by Wadjet Eye Games. It's this great mix of different sci-fi tropes from movies like "eXistenZ", what with 'wetware', the fusion of biology and computer technology and virtual reality in the style of what "Neuromancer" imagined.
Listening to this episode I feel ashamed that I teared up when pyrion talked about Minecraft. I am now 22 years old and there is honestly no greater game. Great episode once again keep it up lads.
I like pflax theorizing about lightning. Isn't it just as simple as it wanting to travelling the easiest route between two charged points? So in theory, it could be that lightning chose a longer route, but only because it didn't find the other available easier routes, there is some RNG elements to it. That's my understanding.
Love the episode. I never caught the Cyberpunk hype but bought it on sale and loved it. Business is ever evolving, think about the amount of abuse 50 years ago and the basically slavery 150 years ago. Having 2 ads in the middle sucks though.
Watching this a bit late but I can heavily relate to you guys being annoyed about going to work but there isn't anything real to do so they give you busy work. I'd say 90% of my life in the US military is no real work, just pointless busy work to keep me there until 5pm and then send me home, even tho we completed all of the legit work at 1pm.
Star Citizen is genuinely a fun game to play by now. Of course its got problems but not nearly as many as some news articles make it seem. People are already blown away by it including myself despite the bugs so..
Seeking a PhD answer are you? Pitty that there is no PhD specialist in yogscast 😁 also can relate to the point and click frustration. Recently I decided to play curse of enchantia as I was never able to finish the game when I was younger and many times I tried all possible combinations only to find out I did it correctly only standing a pixel off to trigger the event 😅
I find it interesting Pyrion talking about how much money and time it takes to do a large scale game properly, and that most AAA studios do not take the time to do it properly because they want to get the game out the door for the investors, then shits on Chris Roberts, who is currently in the process of doing exactly that: spending the amount of time and money required to properly create a large scale game.
What is Chris Roberts doing? Star Citizen? If so, then this is also not how it works. If you make game for 10 years, then technology and market outrun you and you make subpar game in the end
@@DartNoobo There are many large AAA games that took around 10 years to develop, they just don't have public scrutiny on them from day 1, which is what ultimately lead to all the bad PR for Star Citizen. They are constantly innovating and keeping up with modern tech over at SC, and are on the bleeding edge of large game tech. They are taking the time to do it right, and the only way they could do that was to use crowd funding and have an publicly visible development, because no investor would pay to have a game developed the right way.
I speak for many when I say the triforce podcast makes work/getting to work actually bareable
Pyrion has gone super saiyan in that thumbnail. Lovely episode, gentlemen.
He hates anime so much this might make him kick the bucket
@@Hollow5999 I think he would like Birdie Wing

Is there still a way to dig automatically, like they did in build craft?
holy shit lewis might actually be a decent boss
It's such a sips thing to not care about anything that he's not directly involved in😂

Triforce time 🏃🏻♂️
I work from home and do watch youtube all day. I'm doing it now. I still get my work done though.
Potion wonders why they add so much so early?
Because a lot of times, adding things at the end breaks things. Better to add them as you go along.
Love the episode. I never caught the Cyberpunk hype but bought it on sale and loved it. Business is ever evolving, think about the amount of abuse 50 years ago and the basically slavery 150 years ago. Having 2 ads in the middle sucks though.

Cyberpunk is a lot better than people give it credit for, especially now. Can't wait for the expansion.

Cyberpunk is pretty good. The upset people were console players. They should never of put it out on the old gen.
