![]() ![]() this is a clearly surreal, "videogamey" game by design, and definitely not in the same vein as the original apple II Wolfenstein games. your character can also carry an infinite amount of treasure, and a glowing orb with your face on it also gives you an "extra" life. It may seem completely far-fetched to pursue all this analysis until you realize that Wolfenstein 3D is a game, based around real historical events, that lets one man come into several German castles and obliterate seemigly the entire Nazi army and then, in search of health, come upon what appears to be a prisoner's cell containing a fresh plate of turkey dinner just sitting there on the floor, right next to a hanging skeleton, a pool of blood, a potted plant, and a golden cross. while this texture is used on several occasions in the game, it's probably most strongly associated, at least for me, with this level. i have never figured out what exactly it is supposed to represent. part of the credit for that has to go to the brown cave texture that covers most of the level, which i mentioned in the previous entry. there's a rare balance between the atmosphere and a logic to the progression, of throwing tricks at the player, but then providing a way out that actually makes some kind of sense. it's some cavern used for storage and some pretty gnarly torture that connects up to part of a castle. like level three, the setting seems to make sense on the surface. all of the strange things that seem possibly just incidental in the previous four levels actually come to fruition here. this level was done by Tom Hall, who did all of episode four. i'm going to go out on a limb and say that this is probably the level that inspired the careers of many game designers, at least if we're going by amount of keyboards smashed. i'm so deeply angered by the idea, and that's why i find it fascinating. The idea of an "impossible level", one that exists for mysterious reasons and never lets you beat it is ultimately a reason why i'm interested in game design as a thing. he said "why would the levels exist if you couldn't beat them?" he may have been right, but i still don't believe him. ![]() i had a friend in school laugh at me because i told him certain DOOM levels were supposed to be impossible. that carried over into my experiences with DOOM. maybe they're just there, floating in space, not ever meaning to have a solution. This is the level that planted the thought in my head, many years ago, that maybe some levels are just meant to be impossible. it gives you ample resources to beat it, like any other level, and just doesn't let you. it's like it's saying, go back to the fucking Kill Hitler episode to feel good about yourself, cause you're obviously not ready to deal with what's going on here. ![]() it's much more deeply unfair, because it breaks rules that the game previously lets on will never be broken. this is not unfairness in the sense that Kaizo Mario World, or I Wanna Be The Guy, or "challenge" levels are unfair. i say this despite it being totally manipulative and unfair. it's probably one of the best levels i'll ever write about, anyway. after looking through it again, i'm convinced that it's the closest thing the game has to a masterpiece. this is the only level to make me cry out of utter betrayal. With that in mind, i couldn't write an entry about level 3 of episode 4 ("A Dark Secret") without doing one about level 5. not to mention that there's so little critical vocabulary for games, and so few people who are even interested in looking at these things in any detail. that's an awfully all-encompassing term, but i think it has stayed that way because explaining all the ways an environment can affect a player is an impossible task. So i'll just compromise and say that "atmosphere" is the word that gamers use when they want to describe anything in the feel of a game that fits outside the gameplay mechanics. this is very far from the "atmosphere" of a Silent Hill 2, or Ico, which is part of the core of those two games. I feel like we've come to a point where the popular understanding of what that word means, among game designers, is making an environment evoke emotion by adding a lot of manipulative, gimmicky features into the game. i only imagine it being sincerely used now as an item on some checklist game companies have, like "necessary features to add before shipping". i have seen it in so many magazines and websites over the years that it seem like it's ceased to have an actual meaning. ![]() "atmospheric" is a popular staple word of the gamer vocabulary. ![]() 3/19/2023 0 Comments Tiktok archive![]() ![]() ‘Skull-Breaker Challenge’ going viral on TikTok could be fatal, doctors warn Put simply: Someone could take a dangerously high amount of the cough and cold medicine without even realizing it.” 2. “Boiling a medication can make it much more concentrated and change its properties in other ways,” the government health org explained in a warning.

They stayed frozen for what felt like hours before he let go and stepped back. "Do not fear child, I'm going to heal you."Īnd with that he had her neck, he applied little pressure but his touch burned a little. Shadow kept her eyes trained on his mask as he grew only inches from her neck, you could see her shaking. She will not run from him and instead, she will put faith in her body, she will be ok. There was no use in running and all the other tests have proved she was immune. Shadow was about to run but stopped and faced the man. Slowly 049 began to advance, extending his right hand as he moved. I normally only use my cure on those with the sickness but if this is what the doctor ordered." "I fear you don't have much of a choice child. The doctor remains still as Shadow began to back up a bit. "I think you are right but I'm not sure I can go through with this test." This was different, it was an infection inflicted by an entity, now Shadow was really frightened. In the other tests, it was simple hostile entities not being hostile or something's normal function won't work. Now she understood what they meant when they said this was her ultimate test. one of the things they told her was about 049's supposed cure and what it did to the other members. "I think they are referring to my cure young one."Įver since she had been used to help them the guards have been telling her a lot about the other SCP's so she is a bit more prepared. The doctor raised a hand to his chin, or what Shadow thought was his chin, in thought. "I-I'm here to see if I'm immune to you, whatever that means in this situation." He turned when the door closed and Shadow could see him now, it looked like he wore a traditional plague doctor outfit. Shadow was ushered into a room with a surgery table and lots of medical tools, in the left area of the room stood a cloaked figure. Shadow was taken down an elevator and lead through many tunnels till they reached a corridor filled with medical supplies. he was known as SCP-049 or the plague doctor.

The story is complex and interesting so it is not just for smut. However, you can see why the noble depends so much on the young painter as we learn more about his past.

It manages to focus on very human expressions of lust and love in historical times while also revealing the social power structures and value systems of people of the period. Ultimately, this is gorgeous piece of work with surprisingly layered storytelling and characters. Revisiting chapters helped me notice subtle movements that I completely missed the first time. In that regard, it is surprising how much detail the author is able to imbue in a couple panels and how a single hand motion or gesture can reveal so much about a character's personality and motivation. Currently, he is more of a ridiculously charismatic and dangerous antagonist than a romantic male lead, though his frequent nudity does help convince us otherwise.Īs we watch Seungho pinpoint Na-kyum's weakness and use a carrot and stick approach to get him to paint, it is very interesting to watch the young artist's moral conflict in regards to his own work, his sexuality and his unlikely patron. Seungho is driven and willing to kill to achieve his goals, especially since society gives him the authority and power to do just that. Na-kyum's naivete and idealism acts as a foil to throw Seungho's deviant tendencies into stark relief. In comparison, Painter of the Night focuses on Seungho, a noble who uses his power and privilege to pursue a homosexual hedonistic life regardless of social mores of the period. While both males do lack empathy and have a casual disregard for the value of human life, Killing Stalking focuses on a serial killer, which is a completely different sort of dark male lead. The only frustration I've had so far is not with the comic at all, but rather with readers who would immediately compare Seungho with Killing Stalking's Sungwoo - a character that I happen to absolutely loathe. ![]() Rather, the artist captures expressions and emotions with such realism that I can't help but start trying to translate the sentiments that haven't been stated outright in dialogue. It wasn't even about the sexual encounters. I have found myself reading the dozen chapters available repeatedly and I can't help stopping and just gazing at the characters. Rather, the artist captures expressions and Just as Seungho is riveted by Na-kyum's work, I found myself absolutely mesmerized by the gorgeous art in the webcomic Painter of the Night, as well as the surprisingly layered story of a noble determined to offer his patronage to a young artist - whether the latter wants it or not. ![]() Just as Seungho is riveted by Na-kyum's work, I found myself absolutely mesmerized by the gorgeous art in the webcomic Painter of the Night, as well as the surprisingly layered story of a noble determined to offer his patronage to a young artist - whether the latter wants it or not. ![]() 3/18/2023 0 Comments Adobe lightroom 6 serial numbers![]() ![]() Should you haven’t used their responsibilities at that point watch instructional recordings on how you can alter photographs and spares these to the local registry.Ī few pals are pondering making their photographs into HDR pictures at that point it’s the most brilliant decision for people since Adobe Lightroom 6 Patch structures HDR pictures also.Īnother all highlight is it also delivers a Video slideshow in which you incorporate your photographs, Music, and impacts also.

In the first season, the superpowered Red and Blue Clans, and the "Black Dog", Kuroh Yatogami, a lone superpowered fighter, are all chasing him because they believe he's the culprit in a murder.

It is possible, however, for a character to be introduced as a Trickster before being gradually or suddenly revealed to possess depths of cruelty and malice that make them truly villainous, in a form of Bait the Dog.Ĭompare Messianic Archetype and The Fool. While the Trickster may be mischievous, impudent and uppity, they is not necessarily openly malevolent or sociopathic in fact, in many cases Tricksters are more friendly to humanity than the gods are. The Trickster is NOT the same as the Jerkass. They often want nothing more than to show that they are smarter and more clever than the hero, who may also treat such a villain as an amusing diversion as they are often easy to defeat non-violently. In cases where The Trickster is an antagonist or villain, they are quite frequently a Harmless Villain and more of a nuisance than a threat. Mythical versions may also be Hijacked By Satan, sometimes in direct contravention of their original legends. In modern literature, the Trickster survives as a character archetype, ranging from the self-aware and purposeful, through the merely impulsive and mischievous, to an openly hostile antagonist. ![]() 3/18/2023 0 Comments Photosounder vst![]() ![]() ( I hope PhotoSounder doesn't get any ideas after reading my review. I'm not one to encourage price increases, but it would not be unreasonable if this plugin cost 3 or 4 times as much. As such, this plugin shines brilliantly in a final mix/mastering scenario. That aside, it does sound very, very clear and free from ringing, fuzziness, or other fatiguing audio artifacts. I will attest to my fellow KVR reviewers' testimonials that there can be quite a bit of latency induced if you operate this plugin at its higher quality settings. My findings are most nearly all positive. I'd been very busy with work, ministry engagements, and an overdue (3) week vacation and finally, at the end of July, 2012, I was at liberty to bench test SplineEQ. I was somewhat skeptical that a plugin costing a mere $19 could even pay admission to watch the game, let alone get on the playing field. *wink* Many progressional, mastering-grade plugins of this ilk are often very expensive and require strict (read: bothersome) anti-piracy mechanisms. ![]() Of course, I didn't apprise him otherwise. I was honored that he thought well of my writing skills and audio engineering skill. Rouzic (aka "A_SN") contacted me back in the middle of June, 2012, via a personal message and invited me to test and review PhotoSounder's wonderful new Linear Phase EQ plugin, SplineEQ. SplineEQ is available to PC and Mac users (VST2 and AU).Mr. Their format is compatible across all platforms and hosts and can be edited with a text editor. Presets are available here and can be saved or open (not with the free version of SplineEQ).However, SplineEQ is as fast or faster than other linear-phase equalizers, often with less latency. Good Performance – Linear phase equalizers always require more power than other types of equalizers.Adjustable Resolution Latency and CPU Usage – The resolution of the filter can be lowered or increased (up to roughly 22 Hz) and the processing latency can be changed to obtain a lower CPU usage or a lower latency.Smooth Transitions – Changing parameters, either by adjusting the knobs, the graph or by parameter automation is always done smoothly and creates no audio artefacts.Given the uniquely immense gain range, there’s also a built-in limiter whose knob lights up when over the adjustable threshold. ![]() Gains are represented logarithmically between -60 dB and +60 dB and linearly below -60 dB.

Drizly’s Top Tequilas Sold in the Same Basket with Orange Liqueur Though share has dropped three percentage points in 2021 over the previous year, it remains well above pre-pandemic levels. “Share peaked in 2020 amidst the pandemic,” says Paquette, “when consumers were spending more time mixing up cocktails at home, without the option to enjoy them at bars and restaurants.” Share has grown from 11 percent of the category in 2017 to 15 percent in 2021. Triple sec and other citrus liqueurs such as Cointreau, which feature prominently in home-mixed margaritas, have also seen growth within the broader liqueurs, cordials, and schnapps category. ![]() Tequila has increased its share of the total liquor category annually for the last four years, growing from 10 percent in 2017 to 18 percent in 2021.

Drizly data illustrates what consumers are reaching for when it comes to crafting margaritas at home and popping ready-to-drink options, from basket pairings to specific SKUs. Margarita mix share also reached its highest point in May, accounting for 46 percent share of the mixers, syrups, and bitters category. Last year, sales share for RTD margaritas spiked in April and May, peaking in May at 25 percent share of the RTD category. “Across the board, sales on Drizly have reflected this trend, both in ingredients to mix the cocktail at home as well as in ready-to-drink format.” “Margaritas are the most popular cocktail in the United States,” says Liz Paquette, Drizly’s head of consumer insights. ![]() That means retailers can expect a surge in demand not only for tequila, but for margarita mixes, margarita ready-to-drink (RTD) cocktails, and classic margarita ingredients such as triple sec.
