@bhelp0t this why i like kyrian maps so much tho cause he's not so bought into super clear defined gridblock pattern fulfillment but more balance methodology
@bhelp0t in comparison to like small shape gridblock spam where you just have a bunch of curve red nodes that continue from eachother with no rhyme or reason like a big ramen block
@bhelp0t yea no i think i've taken the balance pill i think u can feel it most in my big sliders like now i try to make them have a cohesive concept and have big small relationships between them
@bhelp0t for a while i didn't even look at patterns as if it looked good i literally just focused on connections, being around arkisol and kyrian made me realize u tend to want your patterns to do more than just overlap well and distance space and blanket, theres like nice spaces
@bhelp0t even my experience it took me awhile to learn how to appreciate just good rhythm and complete visuals cause u get so fixated on minmaxing random aesthetic traits/movement that u lose sauce and just do shit with no whole vision
@Aye1337Kk so hard to draw that line because there are generally things i would like most people to follow but at the end of the day i end up appreciating character and uniqueness more than anything which is why i think about what my maps would look like if i never got mentored
