In addition, for those who want to get #ElemensionalRift early access, it is available on itch.io at: nrutd.itch.io/elemensional...

Indeed it has. The travel to here did result in a bit of connections fumbled through because I had to wait until my turn to be invited. But we have found eachother now.

Have you planned out the special on the menu?

I know when I announce the update of something getting patched out, I explain why (usually of something like "leads to this easy broken combo) but patching out has been rare. Usually I've been adding more tools for dealing with the situation or phasing out old moves that were getting no use at all.

I also don't like it. Especially since December tends to see a bit of surge in all of this traffic anyways and thus can really swing things around in some different ways.

Since I don't know any of the details about this character, I think this lack of sticking to a gender sounds like a good opportunity for shining some representation for a genderfluid or nonbinary character

I still use MSWord. All of my templates and structure flow have been built around it for years and easier to stick with what I am comfortable with since I don't really need to share it with many.

The reality is that you will end up doing both at the same time. However, we know you'll keep us up to date on the current exchange rate of Bison Dollars.

On the one hand, it makes sense. From a developer perspective, that can lead into locking off from doing a lot of things that feel intuitive or natural (or even rewarding like the congratulatory message or build up flashy sequence for it). Like you said, it's definitely a bit of a weird time

"Surprised" as in being able to guess the particulars, probably surprised. In terms of "how could they (not)...", probably not. So many things I've seen that it really made me stop wondering how low the bar is getting.

Yeah, it also is creating some really weird feedback to sit and think on because trying to make those players happy is going to fly hard in the face of so many others. Sure that is a bit of an extreme example of just let them go but the ones more in the gray are getting harder to assess.

I agree and have seen it while showcasing. To take it a step further, not only do they not want that truly challenging (outside of Soulsborne-like games as the big outlier), but also upset in not being able to win in ways that don't make much gameplay sense (ex: KO from jabs in platform fighters)

She was always my favorite scout

Am I getting people mixed up? I feel like you announced you'd be taking a hiatus recently.

I have perks for survival and they have been well received even by the hardcore side of the fanbase. Having the option to make it harder for bonus points (so they can compete for top score) really helps let players flex.
