Don’t think of it as modifying, think of it as zooming in on one model so they both line up.

Scaling is not modifying. 3D modeling/sculpting software are all different in units of size/scale. You could make a desk lamp model in Modeling Software A, import it into Modeling Software B, and instead sitting nicely on top of a desk, the lamp is the size of the desk itself. One *must* adjust the scale in order to…

What? Scaling means nothing. Scaling is a completely transform-free process in 3D modeling. 1 inch means 1 foot means 1 astronomical unit because these virtual worlds are completely unit free.

I’ve never owned a GameCube or used one by choice so it’s a surprise to me. 

No, genuinely, I wrote what happened. You know what—at no point from discovery to publication did the thought of how many people would click on it cross my mind, because it makes no difference to me at all. I just tend to hope that whoever does read it will enjoy it. That’s the end of my motivation. It’s lovely when I…

im 37 and I did too and had no idea about this til reading this article.

Thanks for sharing this. I had owned a GameCube since a few days before their official release in the US and can’t say I was ever aware of this little easter egg.

Wasn’t for me. I never made a habit out of incessantly clicking buttons when my consoles start up and it wasn’t widely reported non-stop. This is literally the first I’ve heard about it.

“pointing out the obvious fact that “fan” implies more than a just mild interest is definitely gatekeeping”

You see how this whole article is structured, right? It begins - literally the opening sentence - by acknowledging this could be an “embarrassing gap in our knowledge”, then I repeatedly mock myself for reporting 23-year-old news throughout, and then finish by mocking us again by suggesting we’ll report on a Wii egg…

You must beliving in a cave

I’m 46 and I spent an awful lot of my time playing my GC at the time. Thanks for your concern.

No, 84 is not a high score. It’s basically breaking even for the investment. Plus, if you actually read the reviews, they sound more like mid 70s when they talk about the actual game. The nostalgia gets effluent praise, but not the actual gameplay. It’s clear from reading reviews that the scores are getting a boost…

So, someone who wants to eradicate an entire group of people she hates ISN’T a wannabe nazi? Either you’re a child with no real world experience, or you want the same thing.

84 is not “very high”, especially for a game with a budget of $150 million. Baldur’s Gate 3's 96 is very high. To put it in golf terms, 84 is par.

It’s the raging hardon the guy has for an IP owned by a wannabe nazi that makes him a fascist, not his poor logic.

I agree with the dictionary definition. The other guy is the one making up his own rules as he goes.

Correct. The statement is true regardless.

What can I say, it’s fun to troll fascists.

You’re saying someone can’t be a “real fan” unless they meet your arbitrary criteria. That’s the definition of gatekeeping.
