Seeing something you coded later appear in the actual game client is so motivating and really pushed me to keep experimenting. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6366d4effb5b3d6cdb55b2d5/90a7e202-1776-4ce3-867d-0fd16eb9e0c9/layerth_cloak_talent_indicator.png bukka's Blog - Looking back on 8 years of EFG x layerth - Talent Selection Notifier Talents were just added to the game so viewers had no idea what players were choosing.
