Eskating cyclist, gamer and enjoyer of anime. Probably an artist. Also I code sometimes, pretty much just to mod titanfall 2 tho.

Introverted, yet I enjoy discussion to a fault.

  • The water comes out at a single point at high pressure below the sphere.

    It then travels out and exits all around the sphere.

    The water can be pumped below the sphere very slowly, but at high pressure, and that way still lift the sphere.

    The water doesn’t get squeezed and accelerate towards the outside edge, because as it flows outward, the circle gets bigger. The area expands.

    Hence it slows down, drops in pressure, and comes out at a trickle.

    It’s not like pinching the end of a hose. It’s like adding a kink in the hose before the end. There is huge pressure before the kink (the water that lifts the sphere), and after the kink the pressure is super low (the water exiting from below the sphere). It makes the water slow down and come out at a trickle. Even though the pressure before the kink is huge.
















  • Both terms are correct. There are a couple names.

    Haphephobia is the easiest to pronounce though.

    In the game we never really see Sam properly experience it. He just kinda pulls away from Deadman a little and he goes “oh you have a phobia”.

    The scene where they both cram into the shower to talk about BB should have had Sam on the floor in a fetal position.

    But it doesn’t. Several characters touch or go to touch Sam and he never reacts with more than an unspoken “pls no”.




  • Aside from it being split into 3 games, this is how I feel about the FF7 remakes.

    They are so very full of love and obvious developer passion. The gameplay systems are internally consistent, the charachters are adorable, the world is beatiful. Once you own the game, it doesn’t ask again. You can just step into the world and live there until the credits roll.

    I was worried, and I’m still worried, that some squenix exec will ruin it. But it hasn’t happened.

    Remake and Rebirth are simply good games. Anything bad you could say about them is subjective. I know the gameplay and charachters don’t jell with everyone but I love it.

    Same goes for the modern Resident Evil games, Armored Core 6, Horizon and GoW.

    There are still good AAA games. But they for sure aren’t the rule anymore, but the exceptions.

    They can’t avoid employing artists, and every now and then they fail to stop them from making something good.
