  • Putting a dead character in a container and then yeeting that container into a chasm will no longer permanently destroy the character - they will now float around as a resurrectable Soul Echo as expected.

    QA clearly wasn’t good enough if they didn’t pick up on such a game breaking bug prior to release

    And…

    If you dismiss your companion to camp and shove them into a chasm, Withers will now be able to resurrect them… so you can shove them into a chasm again, probably.

    Whoever wrote these notes really deserves some credit







  • You’ve never used a graphical git client?!

    I’m comfortable on the command line but a decent git UI is a way better experience.

    git diff is so basic using a GUI makes it far easier to compare changes.

    Same for merge conflicts. I’m not sure you can even resolve them on the CLI?

    Any form of rebase: I think I used the CLI to do an interactive rebase a few times in the early days but I’d never do so without a GUI now.

    Managing branches: perhaps I’m a little too ott but I keep a lot of branches preserved locally, a GUI provides a decent tree structure for them whereas I assume on the command line I’d just get a long list.

    Managing stashes: unless you just want to apply latest stash (which admittedly is almost always the case) then I’d much rather check what I’m applying through a GUI first.

    There are some things I still use the CLI for though:

    git remote add git remote set-url because I’m just too lazy to figure out how to do that in a GUI. It’s usually hidden away somewhere.

    git push --force because every GUI makes it such an effort. C’mon! I know what I’m doing - it’s /probably/ not going to mess things up…


  • Star rating systems don’t accurately convey opinions. The majority of reviews will be either 5* or 1* with only a few wannabe critics voting in between applying their own arbitrary votes.

    If Amazon are going to change things then why not adopt something more meaningful. Simple up/down votes for things that actually matter.

    Was this product as described: 👍/👎

    Are you satisfied with the quality: 👍/👎

    Are you satisfied with the value for money: 👍/👎

    Then a few optional questions for things that aren’t relevant to the product such as postage/packaging etc.
