This seems like a big miss that every video game developer could skip the shadows and just say "our game takes place at high noon in Hawaii".

It only happens twice a year though.
Sounds like a perfect setup for a magic ritual
That's what she said
Explains why Like A Dragon has two games in Hawaii now.
Shadows turned off.
When your GPU is from 2017
I read that "from 2007". 2017 was like 3 years ago right? Right????
Hey now! My 1070 is doing just fine. Holy shit, it's from 2016. I'm actually very impressed and depressed all at the same time.
My Pascal Titan X also going strong still. The best of the best from 2016 is still very usable
Sun is almost directly over head, Intellectually, I know that.
But still, seeing these pictures hurts my brain down on the primal monkey/lizard level.
But what about your donkey level?
I am not gifted enough to be on a donkeys level.
Maybe, maybe Tardigrad with an OD of little blue pills.
It probbaly looks way less weird in real life.
I've seen this exact picture so many times that I actually wonder if it is fake. Not the phenomenon but these pictures specifically.
They do look a bit too fake but who knows lol
Perfect time to do mushrooms
I'm not sure. Some years ago a friend and me figured out, during a vacation it would be fun to take a lot of shrooms and just lie on the beach on a day like on the picture. We tripped our brain but we became crustaceans from outside from the sun, it hurt as hell for a week.
So folks be safe, consume hallucinogens in the shadow on days like that.
Rule 1 of tripping. The setting dictates everything.
Rule 1 of being in the sun. The sun radiates everything.
*Set and setting. Both are equally important
Yeah that's what I meant, very true. But the setting is much easier to optimize.
Just more evidence that Hawaii is forever stuck in the 90s.
Me, playing Infinite Wealth (takes place in Hawaii): "I can tell it's a video game because it's noon and I still see shadows. Also that garbage bag has arms and legs and is trying to kick my ass rn."
GTA SA looking pictures
When the sun is directly overhead anywhere.
Unfortunately it only happens at certain latitudes above and below the equator, so it can't really happen just anywhere, just in the few places that are at those latitudes.
My bad, I meant anywhere the sun is directly overhead, which happens to be only in certain areas, but not just in Hawaii.
Hawaii is the only place in Merica that it happens, none of those other places exist.
~~Western~~ American Samoa exists, and is "part" of the US
You're thinking of American Samoa which is different from the Independent State of Samoa, formerly known as Western Samoa and a sovereign nation.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samoa https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Samoa
You're correct! I confused the two
Western Samoa is no longer... And how is it part of the US?
I was thinking of American Samoa. Edited
Also not part of the US
You try invading it, and see who's Army, Marines, Air Force, and Navy shows up to defend it.
I'll give that a shot... Does that mean the US also owns much of Europe and any country in the UN?
No, they are separate countries. American Samoa isn't. It isn't a state, but neither are Guam and Puerto Rico. They're still part of the US.
My bad, I looked up Western Samoa and got redirected to regular Samoa not American Samoa...
Hopefully the Kender is not too angry and won't "borrow" all my stuff.
No worries! Apparently conflating Samoa and American Samoa is just happening today!
Odd way to say doesn’t cast shadows
this looks like gta: san andreas
I know right
That's definitely true.
