I live half a world away so I can’t attend but I think it’s a cool concept. I have no idea how long it takes to re-align the scope between takes.
There is definitely some magic in that, I don’t know if you have both scopes, then you can set an automatic up for people that just want to take a quick peek, and use the manual to explain your story.
It doesn’t take too long to adjust unless somebody really headbutts the scope, which happens. Typically it’s just slewing targets back into frame because of the Earth’s rotation, which at 110x and a good RACI, is pretty easy. I think it takes maybe 15-20s every third guest to make sure they’ve got a good view (takes a bit longer sometimes if they’ve pushed the focuser in). I’m definitely thinking that a GOTO/PUSH TO modification kit might be in my future, but I’m trying not to spend more money at the moment.
I’d love a new Wolfenstein-style game that diverges from the simple divide of giving them helmets.
It’s simple morbid truth that these people are human beings, who have committed their minds to unimaginable cruelty. It’d be fun to have more games about reciprocating that cruelty.
Mortal Kombat’s fatalities gave me a big ick factor when they leaned into cruelty and pain (and thankfully turned towards looney creativity to be entertaining). But I could see the former being a bit more valid when there’s universal reasoning behind why it’s being applied.
There’s a line in New Colossus where he’s in the USA during a parade for the Nazis and everyone is cheering and he says something like “look at them, cheering for their own destruction” and I keep being reminded of it
I’ve been punching nazis and Italian fascists (as well as shooting, crushing skulls with heavy objects, blowing them up etc) in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle since around christmas.
