i claim i want to make things and then i dont make things.

tonight i spent 4 hours playing with a 6 DOF flight sim prototype and i have discovered three things:
-
flying at 170 km/h is fun but if i reduce the speed to 25% then i will reduce the level size by 94%, which means less empty space to fill with stuff
-
i gotta figure out the camera and how not to make myself motion sick;
-
getting the flyer to auto-roll to keep everything level with the horizon requires way more thought (and my failures are certainly a huge contributor to aforementioned motion sick—quaternion math gets fucky really quickly, and then suddenly youre upside-down, spinning, and you can no longer turn manually)
a fourth thing i realized, while typing up this post:
i considered what it *is* that i am making, what all of these disparate pieces will form as an idealized whole. and i realized...im making sonic adventure 2
instead of chosts about how much I hate Denis Villeneuve
that dude's movies all suck. every single one.
Yes, Dune.
Yes, even Enemy.
Yes, Arrival too
Especially Blade Runner
his wikipedia page is so pretentious. "frequent collaborators," pfft! "oh he worked with a buncha people only twice, that's frequent collaboration!"
