  • Gamers nexus on LTT

    Jump

  • It’s the constant cut ins and zoom ins on faces throughout the video. I don’t know if mocking is the right term but what I am getting is that this video feels more like a hit piece than a form of investigative journalism that Gamers Nexus is very good at.

    It doesn’t feel right to me. But I could just be crazy.

  • I get the whole video, it has a lot of stuff that is bad for LTT, what bothers me is the editing style. It feels more like a hit piece than a piece of criticism with how the cuts are made. If this was to be a video calling out the behaviour and actions of LTT and their channels I think it could have been edited in a way that didn’t seem to have constant cut ins from various videos mocking them. I could see a different cut done by a different editor that took the whole project seriously that would be more effective.

  • Painting challenges are absolutely a thing. Some models are harder to paint because of their complexity or size. For example, some necron models are very difficult to paint because of all the small pieces. Knights are a fun painting project because of the size.

    Also regarding rotation, I know some folks who have metal models from the 90s that they still use.

  • So I’m not an expert but I believe the models that GW sells are available to play.

    If you don’t see an index card for a unit you want to play then maybe hold off on spending.

    When it comes to rotation like in Magic, you can argue that GW does do this, but it is on a much much longer time scale and much smaller of an amount of units. They won’t release a model and rules for it and then sunset in 3-4 years. It usually stays in the game for a long time, and the rules for it will be adjusted over time.

    The combat patrol boxes like the necrons may have brand new units to build and paint but that would be it. It would recommend buying models with rules or painting challenges that interest you first rather than on what may be viable or competitive. Enjoy the whole experience of the hobby!

  • Based on comments and stuff I read, isn’t this sooner than expected? I thought I read somewhere it wouldn’t be until October until contact would be possibly back.

  • A couple notes on your design. I think it’s a really great step in what could be a really slick skin, my only major gripe is the inconsistency in what you are doing.

    I hope this doesn’t come off as being negative or nit-picky, but a lot of the elements in your design are clean, but they aren’t completely cohesive.

    First thing is padding and spacing. One thing that is really throwing me off is the inconsistent spacing for your text and iconography. Your text labels for each major section are great, but they should be given the same spacing as the icons on the screen. It’s causing my eye to dart around rather than follow the flow of your screen. This also is the case with your week calendar widget, if you moved those bars and days over a bit to the left to be in line with the rest of your design it would be a lot more cohesive.

    Almost all of the “problems” that I see with the design could be fixed by building out a grid system and aligning all your objects to it. If you check out the metro design system windows still uses, icons and type all have specific rules for where they go and how they behave. Try to follow those rules and it will definitely improve.

    Second and much smaller is a lack of hierarchy. I am not sure what I should be looking at first when I see this. However, because this is a phone screen, it might be very readable for you. I think taking advantage of accent colours would draw your eye to your most used apps and make them easier to tap onto. I think adding a splash of colour or toning to each square would give it a bit more clear sense of what everything goes. iMessage bubbles do this, the colour becomes less saturated the further away the message is from the keyboard, this is a really subtle way of drawing your eye to where the keyboard is.

    I think this design is a really good start, but I think with some tweaking, this will be excellent. I would love to see a version 1.1!

  • YouTube Premium quietly goes up in price to $14 per month | That's a significant $2 increase with no official announcement.

  • I don’t use YouTube music and don’t find the price too absurd considering the average daily watch time I have.

  • I get where you’re coming from, however I find it is personally easier and it is within my financial means to pay for premium instead. I am aware not everyone can but I am glad I can do that. I also support some creators through Patreon for their YouTube content as well. Currently, I am almost completely ad free with the content I consume and sometimes that means I pay money and other times I use an ad blocker. I should also note that I watch the majority of YouTube on my iPhone or on a PS4 and while there are alternatives on the App Stores I prefer the native YouTube apps.

  • I know I am gonna be one of the few, but I use YouTube as my main viewing of things. I don’t use Netflix, or any of the other services much. Premium is something I can’t be without anymore tbh, the ad free and downloading is super convenient for me and I like how a lot of my premium subscription goes to the creators I watch the most.

  • LED lights are meant to save energy. They’re creating glaring problems

    Jump

  • So I’m a wedding photographer and in the past 3 years I have noticed an increased amount of the lights at venues strobe or have really bad banding when I set my shutter speed to higher than 120. My assumption is that the new LED lights are flickering at a consistent rate to save energy but at the cost of the photos I take. Is this the case? That cheaper LED lights will flicker like that?
