what is a hero shooter and what makes it overwatch-style?

I’d think tf2 would be one.

nah, one is never to old to learn stuff.

a tough, but hands-on start would be something like https://www.theodinproject.com/

it’s a free course for web development and their material is really good, so even if you don’t finish it you’ll aquire some good fundamentals about programming.

sadly that does not match your language preferences, but a lot of knowledge tends to transfer or helps to understand different approaches.

you could also try a course like Introduction to CS and Programming or other university/college courses. they are meant for people who start without programming experience.

sure, if the limitting factor in a case like this would be the speed of computation and not slow IO than implementing the computation in another language would be a viable way to increase performance.

when they released they were real time with pause, like the old baldurs gate games.

they added a turn based mode though, in a later patch.

maybe the pathfinder games by owlcat. the pathfinder rules they use are very very simmiliar to d&d 3.5 so, should feel familiar if you enjoyed neverwinter.

they are not super hardware hungry and run without a problem through proton/wine.

i think it was during Swens acceptance speech at the video game awards where he thanked the amazing people at hasbro/wotc who helped to make bg3 a reality only to say how strange/sad it is that almost no one from the first meetings is still at the company in his next sentence.

multi-player. BG3 allows you to play the entire game with up to 4 people.

Not to aware of how c# works, or interested in defending java, especially ancient java versions, but what does it do better in that regard?

Only records for more or less pure data objects come to mind, but those are also in modern Java.

Access control and offering a sound interface.

You don’t need getters and setters if every attribute is public, but you might want to make sure attributes are accessed in a specific way or a change to an object has to trigger something, or the change has to wait until the object is done with something. Java just has tools to enforce a user of your objects to access its attributes through the methods you designed for that. It’s a safeguard against unintended side effects, to only open up inner workings of a class as littles as necessary.

In a language without something like private attributes you’d have to account for far more ways someone might mutate the state of objects created by your code, it opens you up to far more possible mistakes.

You let your ide generate simple getters and setters or utilize something that generates them during a compilation process.

Who ever writes them per hand needs to utilize their tooling better or needs better tooling.

I am surprised it’s not more.

It’s super charming, has many interesting twists on the pokémon formula, a great ost, monster designs are good… it should be up there with other beloved indies.

Cs:go, dota 2, artifact and underlords i think.

I guess this is estimated revenue through game sales, otherwise i’d think activision-blizzard(candy crush) and valve(steam cut, dota and cs micro transactions, steam market) would be higher.

And of course MS has an interest to undervalue some companies compared to sony and nintendo

“Schwacher Trank der Lebensenergie-Wiederherstellung.”

Oblivion auto generated potion names based on their effects and the template they used lead to this super long names in german. A proper translation would have been “Schwacher Heiltrank” or “Schwacher Lebensregenerstionstrank”

The movie is called Antitrust if anyone is wondering. It’s a serviceable thriller and Tim Robbins is realy the best thing about it.

It’s one of thise movies thats definitely worth a watch if you catch it somewhere.

People in media are often displayed filling strongly defined roles based on their outward appearance and such, this reinforces biases and forms certain expectations, thus it’s good to provide examples that show people in different roles.

E.g.:

gay men are often presented as flamboyant, always horny party people, but seldom as successful, serious business guys or as a caring partner for their loved one.

Or the classical trope of the damsel in distress, where the womans purpose is to be in danger so she can be rescued by a strong heroic male.

Or Men in general who are seldom portrait as emotional complex people.

Darktable is pretty neat, but i only edit photos of my dogs and gatherings of friends and family tbh, so it could lack a lot of what lightroom does and i’d never know.

It’s compatible with adobes .dng so you should be able to get usable raws from almost every digital camera with the dng converter in wine, if your cameras raw format is not supported.

If null is a valid value for the field there is no reason why a builder should not construct an object where the field is null.

The only thing i dislike about the pattern is that a class utilizing the builder to retrieve the object has to know a lot about how the object has to be constructed, however it makes for very readable code imho.
