by orchids in the library on dec 17, 2024
i'm currently trying to learn spanish. i downloaded about 180 lessons of https://www.pimsleur.com/ courses, which are just audiobooks that teach languages in a conversational format. i like that method better than something like Duolingo because my brain ...

maybe i can add a feature to auto-resize images so it's less confusing. a handful of people have had issues with avatar uploads in the past
does anyone else dislike difficulty selection screens?
by orchids in video games on dec 17, 2024
<quoting=TracyCyanne postID=3091 threadID=256> I personally dislike enemies just given more health on higher difficulties, but that could be a genuine way to go about it for certain games, and can even work in First-Person Shooters, if done right </quoting ...

i haven't used it personally but it looks similar to https://www.codecademy.com/, which is usually my default when I'm learning a new language. i think having built-in exercises is super helpful when getting your feet wet and just understanding the basic ...

does anyone else dislike difficulty selection screens?
by orchids in video games on dec 14, 2024
<quoting=TracyCyanne postID=3068 threadID=256> More enemies that deal more damage is the most fun way to go about this in my opinion, but that's most relevant to Old School Shooters, and might not work in other genres, especially if you go ham with it ...

i'm playing bloodborne and other souls games
by orchids in video games on dec 4, 2024
recently, I popped in Bloodborne again to replay it because (so far) it's the best souls game I've played. I think it's probably the hardest to adapt to, since you need to be more aggressive and there aren't any shields, but once you understand the mechanics ...
