The hen can’t be alone with the fox or the grain, so it’s still the same.

Maybe I’m blind, but I can’t see it? The target audience is PC gamers, and even though I rarely browse gaming websites anymore, this type of snark seems to be fairly standard for the last 10+ years.

Minecraft is the best-selling game of all time, but it’s looked pretty much the same for the entirety of its almost 14 year run. There’s an argument to be made that it’s showing its age in places, an argument I won’t make because I don’t think so myself, but all the same, as revealed during today’s Minecraft Live, Mojang announced that the sandbox game is getting a pretty big visual overhaul update called Vibrant Visuals. Now, don’t worry, it’ll still be all blocks and squares ‘n’ that, but it will be changing up how lighting looks.

A blog post explains things in a bit more detail, with one of the big things being that there’ll now be volumetric lighting. What that translates to is things like sunlight shining more naturally across different surfaces, even shining through windows, and every individual block will cast its own shadow. Mobs and items will glow a bit more too, so it’s not just about the overworld lighting.

This update is coming to the Bedrock Edition of the game first, with the post noting that it hopes to bring this “graphics revamp (either fully or partially) to as many devices as possible”, though there’s not even a release window for it yet. There are plans to bring it to Java Edition too.

I might not have much of a horse in this race as someone that only really plays Minecraft once in a blue moon (and normally swiftly puts it down because I’m not that kind of creative and I get too stressed out from survival mode), but honestly, I’m not a fan. Minecraft is inherently not a natural looking game, and this lighting overhaul just adds a touch to much realism for my tastes. Besides, this kind of lighting already exists in countless mods, so for plenty of people it’s not even really needed.

In any case, there were a few other announcements from Minecraft Live too, like the fact you’ll soon be able to fly around on friendly versions of ghasts, which I do quite like the look of. There’s a live event taking place from March 25 to April 7 too where you get to hang out with Jack Black’s version of Steve to defend a village in some mini-games, which’ll net you a cape if you’re successful. Bit less exciting, but to each their own!

First line in their about us:

Rock Paper Shotgun is about PC gaming.

This sort of reminds me of the library where someone implemented classes in elixir. It sounds like a fun project to do, but is there any utility in this?

I like python, but I wouldn’t want anywhere near my elixir code

So you mean debugging then?

If you’re going to write scripts that requires installing software, might as well use something like python though? Most Linux distros ship also ship with python installed

Seems shortsighted

Writing Lua code that also interacts with C code that uses 0 indexing is an awful experience. Annoys me to this day even though haven’t used it for 2 years

Plenty of projects have exe files available on the release page though, it’s just hard to find unless you’re familiar with github.

Can’t say I recommend

The market don’t care what either of us think, investors will do what investors do, speculate.

It’s difficult to take your comment serious when it’s clear that all you’re saying seems to based on ideological reasons rather than real ones.

Besides that, a lot of the value is derived from the market trying to figure out if/what company will develop AGI. Whatever company manages to achieve it will easily become the most valuable company in the world, so people fomo into any AI company that seems promising.

I think the steamdeck supports ray tracing, not sure if it has the horsepower for this game though

Modern ones such as meteor/lunar lake does yes.

2000 series launched 6 years ago and even the xbox series s supports ray tracing, at some point software must move on to utilise modern technology.

I guess I didn’t read the problem properly.

Sounds like your typical game theory problem.

Edit: I just realised the question was recognising the name of the city, not recognising city based on a picture…

Probably Svolvær/Lofoten with a population of ~4700. It doesn’t have the official status of “City” in Norway though.

Warcraft 3 had helicopters and tanks, so cars aren’t all that crazy.

In case it’s a genuine a question, there isn’t an opposite side to odd-sided dice. Had it been a d326 it would have been 326+1 in total, if it were a d328 it would be 328+1
