a multiplayer game of parenting and civilization building

So this is my first time creating a topic, I apologize if this is not the proper place or way to do this!
I’ve been playing OHOL for a little under a month now and I have become a huge fan and avid player. I’m not super tech savvy so I struggle a bit with the fancy map software that shows Big Server 2. Last night between 11:00pm-1:00am I spent three lives mapping out the settlements and roads and created this map [see link below].
May the Yum be with you.
The vignette illustration looks beautiful!
I'm a bit disappointed by the very short clips. They should do a 20 minute game play video so we can really understand what is going on.
Let me reiterate what I said earlier.
Those are merely just teasers. I don't know why the recordings are so shitty, but I'm sure that the actual trailer will be of much higher quality. As of right now, I'm assuming that the game isn't ready for a trailer yet, especially considering the fact that we don't even know the proper name of the game. As seen in the original post, the developers have already showcased teasers. That quote from "Christoffer" at the top of the original post was sort of a press release. He is a spokesman for the company that develops You Are Hope and the new game.
Actually, I tried to put 7 on my laptop and it didn't let me. It came with Chinese 10, but jokes on all of you, cause you to pay 50-70 bucks on windows and programs you don't use. It's fully legal to use my code in any other version and you can download original windows ISO-s right from Microsoft servers. Honestly, XP was way better and stable and shit, I remember a system problem where a virus ruined my files, and copying over the ssysem32 folder contents saved me from reinstalling. BTW my older desktop at home was running xp quite well but now is not supported by a lot of programs, I did not run v7 well but handles 10 pretty good.
Lately, my laptop had a few memory issues and I found out how much of a problem is overheating for performance. 8 gb was enough for 99% of the things I do, never had issues, there is an automatic cleanup of RAM at 880 from reaching maximum, but that process can fuck up things.
I was always doing some cleanup, on xp and 7 was easy to customize services. I tried a launcher from razer and actually got some bridge errors which is weird, but also it cleaned less ram that it used in the background. As for antivirus, I always hated memory-hogging ones like Norton, but Kaspersky was even worse, put my newly purchased pc on freeze, was kind of weird and scary on day 1.
So I use free ones that are using less resources and online database. I had a free subscription with AV scanner, it was good until it lasted, then th Clam AV part started freezing. SO back to Webroot giveaway version. Actually, if you know what you ar doing, a firewall and a bit of research is enough. So a minimal antivirus is so good for system resources.Also, Microsoft crapware is annoying, I disabled Cortana just to notice months later that search has a service, possibly collecting data and won't stop even after I got no Cortana or indexing or search (void tools-everything is way better and faster). That was using 100 mb on default with no reason. Also some other program took 4 seconds extra to boot up. Nnott much but none of my other programs took that long, maybe discord. Had this Glary utilities feature to read comments about it. 'Russians turn it off' it's good enough for me why I should turn it off
I know It sounds nitpicking but you do it once, there was like 10-12 useless services in w7 and quite a big impact on performance. On w10 you start again doubting if any of it is needed or useful.
It is Microsoft's operating system after all. They want to put their stuff on it. Maybe they will become the next IBM.
Maybe you should try Windows 8.1 (You will need a computer with a 6th gen Intel processor or older though). It seems to be extremely light, not to mention that you can just install Open-Shell if you dislike the Start Screen that looks like it came from Windows Phone. In terms of RAM, it idles at 800MB for me.

This is my first post in the forums (hello to all my mothers from my many lives); I've been playing for almost a month now and worked for three lives to create this map for Server 2 as of 20 December 2020.
Long live the yum.
When was the last time we had a new person here, let alone OHOL?
If people don't calm down real soon more people are going to be FORCED to not spend Christmas insulting strangers on a forum.
Stop insulting each other.
Yes, thank you!

The thought was that the number of players to the game would increase overtime and with them, we could have new jobs, and one of those new jobs would be a transporter. Someone to move items from where they are produced to where they are needed. Like from the farm to the bakery, or from the bakery to a dining area. But Jason thought we needed the game to be more interesting for people who like to murder each other in other games, so, he fucked it up for those of us who came for the game he advertised from the start, and rather than gain players, we steadily lost them, until we got down to the point where there was 20-30 people on at a time, on average, and then he released the game on Steam, and we got back up to 100 or so a day, but he kept all the same advertisements for the game, selling it as a parenting simulator with crafting and survival elements, yet he continued to add murder mechanics for sadistic people, and, of course, the few who came and abused others, turned away the majority that wanted something peaceful and pleasant.
This is why so many of us are still vocal about how upset we are with Jason's decisions to this day, because it was absolutely obvious to people who actually played the game, what we were here for.
Meanwhile Jason just played League of Legends and Rusts with his sons and ignored the game, ignored our complaints and ignored the things that didn't show up in his data, like how often we said we loved each other, to one another. He just doesn't know a fucking thing about this game and never will because he can't, not from his perspective. He just didn't care enough. And the few people that didn't care either, drove all the good people away.
He just really fucked up, and, he should never be let off the hook for that, for the rest of his life. So that when genuinely good people go looking through history for similar ideas, they recognize the mistakes he's made because he becomes infamous for them.
And that is coming from the person who has put more time into this game than any other person on Earth, including Jason and Tom combined.
There was a time when I averaged 10 hours a day playing this game, for months. Jason couldn't even be fucking bothered to put in 6 hours half that time and he certainly doesn't put anywhere near 6 a day now, if even 6 hours a week. Fuck him. Only the outside he's a fucking shy little aspy, but inside, he's a disgusting monster of a human being who finds humor, entertainment and intrigue in the suffering of others. He's a piece of shit of the worst type, deceitful as all hell.
--
He has a lot of upset people to answer to, and he never will - ever. He's just that kind of person. Either too scared to be honest with those he deceived, or too oblivious of what this game meant to so many of us.
I've given him the benefit of the doubt hundreds of times, I've listened to his voice for dozens, maybe near 100 hours of all the interviews he's given and the videos with him, I've read most everything on all the sites he's ever created, just, trying to find a genuinely good person in him, past the innocent, stuttering, childish mind he comes off as, and I have come to the conclusion he's about as mentally developed as a child that burns ants and pulls limbs off spiders. He was too sheltered growing up, that is clear, but while sheltered, some unfortunate things happened to him and he still carries them with him.
As productive as he has tried to be over the last 20 years, with his music, his file sharing and his games, he cares more about the appearance of a hard worker and not enough for genuine work. But hey, the motherfucker has a nice lookin' resume! Right? Isn't that what life is about? Making yourself a good wikipedia page to be remembered for? Telling people the number of games you've made, even though they haven't played, or even heard of, a single one? He's basically made 20 games that could all be played in a single evening, and probably didn't take more than half that to design... but what the fuck do I know?
He's the reason we're here, instead of anywhere else right now.
At least he helped me to meet a few people who I really felt cared for me, even if we only ever did meet via a game, or a forum.
And that was nice of him. Even if he did encourage others to kill us in the same game by telling everyone he just wanted interesting things, and only ever siting murder statistics, as an example of an 'interesting' thing.He was a true piece of shit, may still be, may even be for the rest of his life.
Yet I still care about him.Yet I still love him.
Like a cute, little dog, that always bites you when you try to pet it, and barks incessantly with the sharpest, most annoying yip.
You just have to admire them for their confidence and perseverance.He's got a fair amount of determination, more than I'll ever have.
He just made some bad choice.
But that's life, eh?
Haven't we all made some bad choices and lived to learn from them?--
Sorry, I forgot, this was about seeds and shit. Move the produce to a storage area, if you have time. Make boxes for storage in a room adjacent to the kitchen. Storing it adjacent to the plants themselves was never the way it was meant to be. Back in 2018 we used to store food in baskets in carts, but, then Jason made baskets decay, made carts decay and just basically shit on idea after idea that we came up with to make the largest towns stable. That's what the game is to him, making things miserable for people. That's the most important thing; that you be miserable, no matter what. I'm guessing that's what his dad did; made him miserable to force him to grow up, and that's probably what Jason will do to his kids once they reach the same age; dash their sense of security against a jagged cliff just as they all reach just the right age, where the youngest one is nearly old enough to evict if necessary.
Who the fuck knows. The past of this game is fucking haunted by people who knew better and gave up before Jason fucked them over too much. Before they got too attached, they left. I should have left with them. But some, fucking, paternal instinct in me, keeps me coming back, as if I'm checking on my kids in bed, just for the peace of mind a father might experience, as he hears his children breathing in their sleep.
I do not know, why, I am still around here.
I've probably squeezed all the blood I'll ever get from this stone, yet I'm still holding on.Too bad there aren't more people trapped here with us, eh?
I'd turn like Tarr, pein or Dodge did, into sadistic fucks too, if only I could care as little as they do about what matters most to me.
Then maybe I wouldn't feel so bad about the game being such garbage, I could just take it out on other players, instead of reaching right for the heart of the fucking problem.Just pretend it's not Jason, pretend it's each other.
Pretend it's me if you like.
Jason told me once he was looking for a friend, and, I think I blew him off.
Maybe it really is my fault. I'm sure I did something wrong, by not being good enough to prevent more problems, or, at least, to wind up happier, by this moment in the future.--
This is what I get for looking at the posts of the past.
If you're a brutally honest person, don't fucking do that.
You'll just regret it, you'll just dredge up unresolved issues.
Stay in the present, or don't - don't touch the fucking lever.
Just let the train kill those 5 people. You didn't start it. It's not your fault they died.
But it will be your fucking fault that 1 person died, and you'll never let it down.
Don't touch, that fucking lever.In fact, stay the fuck away from trains entirely!
Whoever designed those fucking tracks should be charged with the 5 deaths, fuck that piece of shit.
Fucking trains, who needs em?

And hey, don't take this post too seriously.
I don't want to talk about this shit now that I've got it off my chest.
Talk about ... farm layouts or some shit.
IDGAF
Just let this go.
Maybe I will too,
someday.
If we look back at the trailer, it is extremely misleading. Was that the point? Was that the intent behind it?
https://youtu.be/mT4JktcVQuE
I wonder if Jason tried to add murder mechanics in order to balance things out. Maybe he wanted it to be a bit realistic. How long is it until peace gets stale?

Did you actually reread your posts or maybe you have memory problems or more likely brain issues.
It's an open discussion disagreeing is part of it.
You on the other hand all you did was post smartass comments directed at me when i wasn't even talking to you.
Do we know each other? Did i talk to you before?
No
Calm down. There is no need to get so mad over this.

While I'm no Kevin Mitnick, I used to idolize him back...20-25 years ago.
I saw him in an interview on... Tech TV I think it was? It was shortly after he was released from jail. The interviewer asked him what version of Windows he preferred, and when he said 3.1, I nearly lost it.
This was the time of 95, 98, 2000, ME and NT, mind you.
I was using Deskmate in 1989, my Tandy 1000 came from Radio Shack, I didn't use 3.1, but I completely related to Kevin in that moment.
I haven't forgotten that moment.
Ah, I remember Radio Shack.
You're a very mysterious person. Your answer puzzles me.

Dodge is a lovely human being.
<3
Stick around, Wumbo.
You'll see.
So far, I'm not impressed. 2/10, but maybe a 3/10 if I'm feeling generous.
But I imagine to that catholic school teacher, I may as well have been a Genestealer.
More like, a, memestealer...
Sorry.
Morti, It is okay. We all like you.
WumboJumbo wrote:Update your computer!
No.
May I ask why?
WumboJumbo wrote:Well... no, not really Morti.
But at least it's something we can share, with each other, no matter how small a group we are.
Well, I guess so. Jason is the almighty ruler.
WumboJumbo wrote:I wonder what the game would be like at this moment if Tom Bailey was still here. Would it still be flourishing?
Is it flourishing now?
Well... no, not really Morti.
WumboJumbo wrote:Wait, who is Tom Bailey?

A man with eyes as beautiful, if not more so, than Jason's.
I wonder what the game would be like at this moment if Tom Bailey was still here. Would it still be flourishing?
Maybe the trailer would've actually aged well (it is almost at 1,000,000 views)...

My Little Pony had it all wrong,
it's racism that's magic.And magic is just someone being dumb, while someone else takes advantage of the unknown.
But oh, wasn't it great to be a child?
Can't we just be naive, forever?
NO!
Grow up.Grow up, down and all around.
Just stop pretending you are still just a naive little seed.
You're one with words, Morti.
What's your problem? If you dont want to talk about the topic just fuck off.
Are you going to tell the rest of the people in this thread to fuck off?

We had a future development plan, 4 years ago.
10,000 objects in 2 years.And what do we have now?
4,000 objects in 4 years?Plans don't mean a thing without Tom Bailey, or someone else, cracking a real whip on Jason, and Jason doing the same on someone else. We are not enough for Jason. We're not real people in his mind, we're text. Users on his servers; sources of input, in HIS data.
He needs real friends, not comments, emails, posts, or anything delivered to him via Mercury.
Saturn needs a Jupiter, a Venus, and a Mars, to sit with him for awhile atop Olympus.
Or he's just going to be Jewish and pretend to himself, he can do everything.
--
When he and Tom went their ways on this project, he took on twice the responsibility, but he also took twice the stress, and it has exceeded his threshold for tolerance, time and time again. Yet he has come back; rebounded, time and time again.
And don't bitch about specific numbers, like 10k or 2, it's work divided by time, no matter what you choose for the variables.
You understand.
So does Jason.All that matters is what he does.
Now, who are we, in the meantime?
Wait, who is Tom Bailey?
Looks good, looks cute, wondering if it's cross platform or multi-platform. Will mobile players and PC players be interacting?
Yes, mobile players can play with PC players and vice versa.
I take that back, it looks really fucking good. Those graphics are sexy af... I wonder why the recording was so shitty? And to release without a trailer or showcase or press? Kinda confused but in a good way
Those are merely just teasers. I don't know why the recordings are so shitty, but I'm sure that the actual trailer will be of much higher quality. As of right now, I'm assuming that the game isn't ready for a trailer yet, especially considering the fact that we don't even know the proper name of the game.

I was going to comment how there is no Ursa Middle-oris, in the sky, just Ursa Majoris and Ursa Minoris, but in looking for the latin word for middle, I looked up the definition of Majoris
https://i.imgur.com/RFTj4Po.pngand I found it interesting that it means ancestors.
https://i.imgur.com/Qkfamkf.png
Also Mayor and Major, I took latin in school and it's just dawning on me, this connection.
Even after teaching astronomy so long and say "Ursa Majoris" like 5,000 times, I never even bothered to look up just what Majoris meant. We always just called it "Ursa Majoris, The Great Bear"
I thought it meant great...Then there is Ursa Minoris "The Little Bear"
How much you want to bet, Mino does not mean little?Seriously, I had't even looked it up, either. I was going to say $5.
https://i.imgur.com/4KVoF7N.png
I had a great story, I loved to tell, about a Native American myth regarding Ursa Major and Ursa Minor, and why there was a mother and baby bear in the sky. I've repeated it over a 1,000 times. Here, I didn't even know, Major and Minor, meant ancestor and descendant. I would have added that, connection, from time to time, in my stories, had I only known.
You're still using Windows 7? Didn't Microsoft end support for it earlier this year in January? Update your computer!
Spoon nobody cares about your nitpicking
Also: "As for Dodge's comments he doesn't even provide the source of his quotation."
I literally said "a quick google search "where does black skin come from" results in:"
So again you're wrong or being anal either way not interesting.
Wow Dodge! You have a PhD degree from Google? Forget ethics! It is just a game.
Spoonwood wrote:Skin color, I think, didn't change from predecessor species of homo species.
You have no idea what you are talking about, again...
a quick google search "where does black skin come from" results in:
"Due to natural selection, people who lived in areas of intense sunlight developed dark skin colouration to protect against ultraviolet (UV) light, mainly to protect their body from folate depletion. Evolutionary pigmentation of the skin was caused by ultraviolet radiation of the sun."
Go get your white face in the sahara desert sun and then complain that black people are being racist because they dont get as sunburnt as you lmao.
They have an evolutionnary advantage in that environment = RaCiSm
So fucking dumb
Hey Dodge, where's your fedora?
Nah, I prefer to get there by making sarcastic commentary and witty come-backs. More fun than useless spam posts or necros.
And less effort.
I was kidding, but good point.
Hmm, just checked user post counts and it looks like I am in third place, behind Pein and JasonRohrer. I guess I have a new goal for next year. Reach the top of the forum leaderboard!
Let's see if I can beat Jason's 4,722 posts before Spoon overtakes me. I think I can manage that.
Yeah, all you have to do is pointlessly spam the forum!
Happy 4004 jokes Destiny.
Make that 4006.
Next thing you know, Jason will add landfills and pollution. Then the world of One Hour One Life will truly look like an impoverished nation with overflowing garbage problems (all thanks to garlic).
It's all new artwork and a new game engine. Unless you are Jason's or Dual Decade's lawyer, then you don't need to be here stirring up past drama. The new game isn't even out yet.
You have made two threads about YAH-one about the upcoming game and another one about YAH mineshaft updates, which I have no idea why you posted it because you are a regular in YAH's forums so you knew that the mineshaft update was from YAH.
Also, this is a forum for OHOL. Why are you even posting about YAH here?
Stop stirring the pot then. I'm not trying to create any issues or drama, but your remarks against me certainly aren't helping. Don't comment on this thread if you dislike me so much. It doesn't benefit me or you.
All I wanted to do was see what people thought of the new game compared to One Hour One Life. I know that morale is somewhat low here, so I wanted to make people curious and excited. I equally love One Hour One Life, You Are Hope, and the new game.
Stop trying to create drama WumboJumbo. The new YAH game is on a different game engine than OHOL.
I'm not trying to create drama whatsoever. Did Jason ever state that only the game engine mattered?
