computer, could you kick up the, uh,

Rolled 4d3 : 1, 1, 1, 3, total 6
Rolled 3d3 : 2, 1, 3, total 6

[silverspawn]

Can I play too?

This dice roll may have been tampered with!
Rolled 1d2 : 2, total 2 This dice roll may have been tampered with!
Rolled 1d2 : 2, total 2 This dice roll may have been tampered with!
Rolled 1d2 : 2, total 2 This dice roll may have been tampered with!
'1dThis Dice Roll May have been Tampered With' is not a valid dice string! This dice roll may have been tampered with!
'1d-1' is not a valid dice string!

Apparently 0, 1 and 2 are all 2.

Lame, 1d1 automatically changes to 1d2.

Simple Machines is aware of your dice-rolling shenanigans and wants nothing to do with them.

[silverspawn]

I don't understand why companies that produce hard-to-setup programs don't distribute at least 5 times as many resources into making them EASIER to set up and cut on features to make up for it. The chance that a user will even notice a random feature is about 1% as high as the chance that he will benefit from an easier installation process. Likewise, it's much more likely that he dislikes the product because he can't get it to run than because it doesn't have a random feature. It's so stupid.

[pacovf]

Depends on who their target audience is.

Also, making an easy-to-setup program is not easy.

Also

[silverspawn]

All true, but I'm convinced that it's underestimated by a lot on average, probably because it's not fun for anyone. The creative staff already has it running, working on that provides no intuitive sense of progress. Making new features feels exciting. Probably also a problem of traditional planing.

Just imagine how much additional work it would be to have 20% more people who try to run it succeed. Probably quite a lot. But 20% more total work? Not even close.

I have never tried to install any software that was too difficult to configure, considering what the basic functionality of the software was.

I mean, I can think of countless reasons why this math here doesn't necessarily work, but since I don't know what program nor company we are talking about, I don't know how relevant they are.

Been struggling with glintercept and OGLE lately. I'd say it falls in the minimal tweaking category and the likelihood of getting it right is very low. Also sourceforge links that are like 10 years old.

I know it doesn't work, I'm saying the disparity of the numbers is so large that once you attempt estimate them even just roughly, it becomes clear without having an accurate model.

[pacovf]

It depends on the number of people that want to try to use the program, their qualifications, their interest in the project, the willingness of the company to coordinate external work, to spend resources in maintaining the program for outsiders, the objectives of the company, their manpower, their business plan and internal organisation, etc. It's not as clear cut as you are presenting it, there are a lot of variables. But well, not knowing the specific program nor company, I could not possibly comment one way or another.

loz oot --been having an absolute blast as it's my first zelda game ever!

The best thing of playing OoT is that now you will be able to listen to Gerudo Valley remixes (and Twinrova's theme, but I think that's more of a personal rather than universal preference).

[Seprix]

Ocarina of Time is vastly overrated. I've played Twilight Princess, and that is basically what OoT is, except OoT was worse (for being a predecessor, less ideas, mechanics, etc). It was an innovative game for its time, but come on, let's not kid ourselves, it's not that fantastic of a game today.

it's amazing how many of your opinions are just wrong

[Witherweaver]

A Link to the Past for the win.

I think Ocarina of Time is better than Twilight Princess by a lot of metrics, but worse by some. They're both good games. It was fun replaying them both recently, on 3DS and WiiU respectively.

[silverspawn]

Twilight Princess sounds better to me, personally ~

[pacovf]

It's hard to compare OoT and TP, because I played them first at a very different point in my life. Overall, I think OoT has a more imaginative Hyrule, a memorable soundtrack, and a better story. TP has better mechanics and gameplay, although I am not a big fan of the light/dark World gimmick. They are still extremely similar games.

And, of course, OoT was extremely ground breaking back in the day, but that's not relevant when comparing their merits today.

Zelda snobs tend to say Majora's was the better game anyway.

And Windwaker is a perfect game in every way, of course, even in the ways it isn't.
