    After buying this game from watching the first couple minutes, beating it and returning to this video, I found out that the reason he had so much trouble with the duplex jumper puzzle was because it told him to actually do a simpler version (simplex actually) version, and he had jumped to the instructions for a more complicated one down the line on another screen. The complicated one had two of the same junctions as the one he was trying to solve (and did solve!), so that's why it looked so jank, and why it removed two of the pieces when he solved it. The game was real good, but a little short imo.

      @Drakefance5 4 роки тому +5

      Generally when measuring the Intensity of Star Light, they use Apparent and Absolute Magnitudes. Apparent Magnitude is how bright an object appears from your current position while Absolute Magnitude is what the Apparent Magnitude would be if that object was 10 parsecs away.
      Probably the best Example would be with our sun, It's Apparent Magnitude is -26.7 (the lower, the brighter) but if we moved it 10 parsecs away, it's Absolute Magnitude would then become +4.7 which would be as bright as seeing Jupiter's Moon Ganymede from Earth. For reference, anything Higher than +4 will be invisible to the naked eye in urban environments.

      @joehemmann1156 4 роки тому

      @@Drakefance5 I trust that you know what you're talking about, but you didn't put units to your numbers. Unless they're literally called Magnitude units (not impossible, there are plenty of strangely named scientific units, but I doubt it). But keV is a "more is more" scale, isn't it?

    • @Drakefance5
      @Drakefance5 4 роки тому +6

      @@joehemmann1156 Didn't learn anything about Momentum based Physics so keV is completely foriegn to me but did learn a bit about Light physics a couple years ago which is where i'm coming from with this.
      Apparent (m) and Absolute (M) Magnitudes are Logarithmic in nature and don't use units. The results are always refered to as "The Absolute Magnitude/Brightness/Luminosity of X Star is [Result]" so it can be associated with a chart of lowest Absolute Magnitudes to highest Absolute Magnitudes with references throughout on how visible it would be in the sky. Regardless, it's a system which doesn't have any units associated but is the way astronomers measure how bright a star is. Which is probably why the game didn't decide to use it.

      He was trying to do the wrong thing from the start. Those were instructions to get discovery routine working. It never told him he needed to get the discovery routine working, he did that on his own. It told him what he needed to do and he thought something labeled different was the same thing. Sure it probably shouldn't have said anything or told him he didn't need it yet when he clicked something completely unrelated to his current task, but I'd still put it more on him than the game for just doing something different.
      He just got lucky that the instructions for the right thing and the instructions for the thing he thought he should be doing were so close.

      ​@@SamuraiFoochs Maybe the fantasy of working in space, or because puzzles, or the reward of solving technical problems without a grueling hours long mess including searching on google and trying to decipher what they're saying only to find out it doesn't work for some reason that may be your fault, theirs, or just happenstance, and trying to figure out where to even go from there, wherever that leaves you.
      Maybe the atmosphere, the whole "aesthetic" thing is pretty popular. You know, where they use the word to mean something completely different from what it actually means and fantasize and/or get nostalgic about how a certain time and place felt, whether it's how it actually was or not.
      To me, it's just there. I guess you can do it because it's there, but why? There are so many other things you can do because they're there. Maybe figuring out the appeal is a puzzle of its own, and the work "bleak" being used to describe it is a clue.
