![]() Interface: Probably the most complex interface I have ever seen (and I have been using purchased software since 1980). The trial version did not write the changes so I had no way to see if it was working using iTunes. He insulted me for not reading the instructions for his interface (for which see below). Support: While the developer did make suggestions, he ignored my statement that I had followed his suggestions and got the wrong results a second time requiring another restoration of my 70 GB library. Also, the software does not seem to recognize compilations, as the one I had was separated into several different albums (the original ones from which they were extracted) even though the song metadata included the compilation album name as well as the song name. This was so bad that I had to restore my entire (6000 song) library from a backup taking hours to accomplish. Inaccurate: Numerous songs were mistagged and separated from the rest of the album from which they were extracted. Anyway, here is an itemization of my problems:ġ. SongKong also got the composer of that song wrong (primary composer was Adele). Why would anyone forgive a program that takes the first song on that album, "Hello," and identify it as a single release, separating it from the rest of the album. The software mad a huge number of errors, and many were not on obscure albums, e.g. I am simply astounded by the number of positive reviews here as my experience with both the software and the support were very bad. Better handling of Acoustid timeout required.PreferredReleaseDateType=Earliest,None,Latest option missing from GUI.Check Version not automatically called in Remote Mode.Matched to MusicBrainz/Discogs sections doesnt show match if Ignore Already Matched set.For ID3 formats Performer Role/Performer not always shown correctly in Song Changes report.Not disabling Preview on license install is confusing for customer.Add ability to hide badges from browse section so can see full artwork.Add the various BrowseBy options under a single Browse menu.Add text search to Browse pages to go straight to filter results by artist(s)/album(s)/composer(s)/work(s).Shorten MusicBrainz to MB on browse sections tags so obscures less of image. ![]() Improve Style to Grouping data addition.Should ignore track titles of the form Track 1, Track 2 when double checking good title match.Performance:Use Native Sql not Hibernate to generate reports.Add Cover Image size below artwork for BrowseBy sections.Performance:Use ANY query rather than IN query so can reuse more prepared statements.

All the placement of objects and rooms has been programmed to take into account our choices. That was not the plan and it hasn't been made for this.Īll % calculations behind the curtain have been programmed for cards. But I doubt that this current game will change and adapt itself with more features looking like a tycoon management game as you are wishing. And to be honest, I'll be very pleased to know it too. If your intention is to ask if another game similar to this exists and where can it be found, that's fine for me. Yes, I'm asking for something different that has a similar premise. From the screens and genre tags, it gave the illusion of a different genre than I was expecting and that made me wonder if there were other games set in the same premise but provide the kind of gameplay I would enjoy way more than this. That doesn't mean I don't understand the mechanisms behind it. There are just aspects of this game that didn't click with me. I played until like 3 am last night and now I feel terrible because I have to work. Like others have been saying, it's too randomized. In other words, I cannot choose my starting cards and at intervals, I am not presented with an option to pick better cards. It does have a certain level of management involved while at the same time, you have very little control over your deck. I also play a lot of deckbuilding games but this game, you have to admit, is neither here nor there. Students, rooms you are placing and whatever, all elements are part of this challenge.īasically, it's a puzzle game made through a card game. The graphics are used to show the players the effects of the cards. If you don't see the game like this, you're missing the point. This is on what the whole game has been created. ![]() By drawing cards you have to complete the challenges. The challenge is based on the fact that you have decks of cards and you have objectives. ![]() You are asking for something completely different and the game hasn't been made with that plan or idea. Tl,dr: is - one map, one ruleset, vs a chain of maps, stacking +/- of each.This game is not a tycoon management game at all. ![]() To spice things up, you can choose to make things even more complicated for yourself from the get-go: your students could learn slower, the Evil Lord's progress is faster, magical "accidents" happen more frequently, you name it: while the main Student Career Challenge usually is your main focus, you can sprinkle on some Extra Campaign Headaches why don't you.Īt first, in the main menu, you're faced with a terrible decision: Campaign, or skir-Quick Play? Those effects cumulate, meaning, things can be stupidly easy at one point, then turn your whole campaign into a quagmire of hatred on the next map. style/deck-building dungeon crawling (VERY clumsy, rather rare, and unpolished btw!), and juggling ever-worsening Rimworld-like character traits - while the "Evil is coming!"-deadline keeps ticking down and you're supposed to fulfill up to 3 quests until you're forced to abandon your current University and start from scratch on the next map.ĭepending on your success with said quests (zero to 3), you'll then (possibly) choose a random "trait" book, and (certainly) a random "curse" book, taking the effect of both the books - and your graduated student's achievements - to the next map in your campaign. Spellcaster University mixes tower building (roughly think Fallout Shelter), rogue-like NPC events, occasional L.O.R.D. Will you turn it into a black magic academy, with the best professors of necromancy and demonology? Or a place in harmony with nature to train druids and shamans? Or why not train adventurous mages, offering them options to learn how to fight and be stealthy? But this will require surviving the ruthless attacks of the orc tribes and the controls of the education authorities." - Game description on Steam TL,DR: Build your school, manage your budget, recruit teachers. "In Spellcaster University, you take on the role of the director of a magic university in a colourful world of heroic fantasy. ![]() The "animated event series" is set primarily within the cities of Piltover and Zaun within the studio's expansive League of Legends universe, which already marks a nice divide between the good and evil aspects of technology. Suicide Bomber – Will kamikaze you and explode, causing massive amounts of damage, while dropping no loot.Riot Games announces a Fall 2021 release for its League of Legends Netflix series ArcaneĮarlier today, Riot Games showed off an explosive new trailer for their upcoming Netflix animated series Arcane, and while the 18-second snippet-style clip doesn't leave us much information regarding the narrative, we at least know that the series will be arriving on the platform sometime in the fall. Missile Dampening – Slows all projectiles and spells around the mob. Horde – The mob summons additional minions. Enraged mob is much faster and stronger.ĭesecrator – Mobs create fire circle under party members that starts to burn you with fire damage 1 second after its creation. Last mob in the pack is going to enrage (becomes much bigger and gain red colors in his texture). Animation in flashing every few seconds only.Īvenger – When one of the mobs die, others in the pack become stronger. Can be seen as a dark red chain between mobs. Health Link – When pack of mobs is near each other they share incoming damage from the party and every mob take only a % of total damage done. Vampiric – Every landed hit (including projectiles) will heal the mob.įire Chains – Will cause the champion mobs to connect via a fiery chain that will damage you if you cross it. Shielding – Casts a shield around one of your enemies. First Seen in Hell mode.Īrcane Enchanted – Mobs will spawn an orb that shoots out an arcane laser that will spin in one full circle before going away. Once the champion mob is killed, the minions die instantly. Invulnerable Minions – Must kill the champion mob, minions take no damage (hence the invulnerable). Really dangerous if they are in pack, as if they all use illusion at the same time, you’ll get circled by the copy and unable to escape. Illusionist – Create copies of themselves with about 20% of their original HP. You can’t really outrun them, better to use knockback / stun. ![]() Jailer – Similar to Freezer (see above), will conjure a red circle that will root you for ~2 seconds.Įlectric – Will continuously emit electrical pulses that crawl along the ground in 360 degrees.įast – Increased movement and attack speed. Waller – Creates walls that can often trap you and your companion if you don’t move.

Plagued – Will drop pools of green poison. ![]() Nothing you can really do but use a gap closer here as well. Knockback – Will knock you back randomly. They can be avoided rather easily if you don’t get tunnel vision. Mortar – Will run from you and fire a barrage of ~5 or 6 fireballs in an arcing path. If you are a ranged, use knock backs and speed boosts naow. Vortex – Will suck you in toward them at random times. If they do teleport, best to use your gap closers here. Teleport – Will randomly teleport to an area in close vicinity. Also, upon death, the mob will explode causing a large amount of AoE damage. Can cause a floor full of hurt if in a confined area. Molten – Will leave a path of lava wherever they go it will cause a small amount of damage continuously while you stand in the fire. Nightmarish – Will drop a fear bomb and will send you and your companions running in fear for ~3 seconds. They often come in groups of three and some of them can be rather tricky: Here are the abilities that any given unique mob will have. Thanks for putting it together Everamilli! This is invaluable information, so I thought I should share it as well. After some search, I found a very useful post on, which clearly details all the abilities that rare and elite mobs may possess. Struggling through the rares and elites in Diablo on my hyper-squishy Witch-Doctor has been complicated by the fact that these mobs can spawn with any combination of lethal abilities. ![]() After the download is complete, simply click the "Play" button.

The art style and look of it all is really unique and had me in awe a few times as to how pretty it looked visually. For one thing, it is absolutely gorgeous. A puzzling paradise.Īlong with exploring puzzles, players can take in the views of this island. There is no gated access or some type of progression system in place here. That is the brilliance of The Witness, every puzzle players come across is solvable right then and there. When it becomes apparent what they need to do, they will see the answer was right in front of them the entire time, they just never realized it. If logic isn’t working for a puzzle, people need to realize they may very well be focusing on the wrong thing. Those quintessential “ah-ha!” moments are sometimes difficult to find, but every time I had one, it was rewarding and satisfying. I want to be slightly vague on this game due to the fact that figuring out how some puzzles work is part of the game itself. Puzzles become larger, have more rules to figure out, and some really begin to test both the player’s logic as well as their observation. Soon enough, players will begin to see that not everything is apparent. Exploration is key to not only finding the puzzles, but also solving them.Įverything starts out simple enough, finding panels that activate more panels when solved, following power cables that light up when a panel is solved, etc. Walking around the island via a first person perspective, finding panels with puzzles on them, and solving them is the entire point of the game. Essentially, everything is up to the player on what they want to see and do. There is no explanation, no tutorial, nothing to tell players where to go or what to do. The game takes place on a mysterious island. Certain puzzles utilize unexplained rules that players will have to figure out via trial and error and through the power of their own observation. Start at a circular area, and draw a line to the end of a grid. The puzzles themselves are simple in concept. ![]() The Witness has a very simple concept – find puzzles and complete them. Now, at first I didn’t know what to think, is it really that long? Do I want to play a puzzle game for that many hours? Astoundingly, after putting some time into it, I can safely say absolutely. After years in development, Jonathan Blow has finally released his highly anticipated game, The Witness – a game that has been touted as a 30 hour puzzle game. Flexing my brain muscles is usually rewarding and fun in its own right, and finding a game that does this well is sometimes a bit of a challenge. Pay attention to everything.I enjoy a good puzzle game from time to time. Are any objects giving you hints? Look all around the puzzle panels and survey the area. If you’re in a new location and you can’t really work out what you’re meant to do there in order to make progress, see if you can find any clues around you. ![]() Part of the brilliance of The Witness is discovering the secrets. Following this, make sure you’re not doing anything stupid, like incorrectly combining blocks into a block of 6 when it should be 8. If you think you know the rules for all the symbols in the puzzle yet still can’t solve it, double check by going back over the panels that taught you. If this describes your situation, move away and look around for the teaching zone. The game never throws you into the deep end with a puzzle without having offered a series of puzzles that gradually teach you the rules. If the puzzle features symbols you’re not familiar with, you most likely haven’t found the ‘tutorial area’ for that symbol type. New symbols should be introduced with easy puzzles Your road to line-drawing glory lies ahead. That’s why I’ve come up with some spoiler-free tips that will hopefully guide you to success while still making it seem like you did all the hard work. It can be extremely tricky, frustrating, and at times feel like an impossible task. The Witness is a game about rules and making sure you obey these rules to solve puzzles. These steel shackles can corrode in the elements and may be overlooked during weekly/monthly/annual inspections. Verify material condition of the shackle that connects the pull cable to the remote control wire within the lifeboat.If the weight is very close to the top of the lifeboat, this may indicate the remote control wire is too long. Verify the proper position of the remote control wire weight.Verify the proper spooling of the remote control wire, expand inspection as necessary.The Coast Guard further advises ships’ crews to pay particular attention to the following inspection points: This recent incident serves as a reminder of the importance of visually inspecting lifeboat and davit installations prior to testing with crew members onboard and to ensure that the crew is familiar with company policy related to life-saving appliances testing. However, the investigation also identified that the crew did not follow company policy, which required a ‘test lowering’ of the lifeboat without crew prior to embarking crew. In this particular incident, failures in the remote control wire arrangement, probably due to poor spooling of the wire, were identified as the causal factors. ![]() In a recent safety alert, the US Coast Guard describes yet another lifeboat incident - one that could have had a catastrophic outcome if it had not been for the quick action of a crew member who activated a davit winch brake lever from the ship’s deck. ![]() These accidents have also resulted in seafarers losing confidence in the lifeboat launching systems. Lifeboats are designed to save lives, but over the years many serious casualties have occurred during drills, routine maintenance operations, and inspections of davit suspended boats.
