Not gonna lie, that was a pretty great copypasta. Wierdestboner.jpg And I am shocked no one has linked this which has been stuck in my head sins reading it:

Yeah I agree there are flaws in the argument. It's also a vey long term game with only 2/7 areas filled out so the expectation should not be to "beat" the game with all max level characters within 2 weeks of release. I have played mobile games in the past but I've never had too much of an issue...

Likewise. I also now totally understand why matchmaking is disabled for the raid. Several groups asked themselves the question of what it world be like to try to do it with randoms, with hilarious results.

Yes, the fact that the gacha genre has moved out from mobile platforms into the PC / console space beyond the existing loot boxes and piece lmicrotransactions out there now. If you want to be buy into the slippery slope argument, Genshin's success will lead to more mainstream gamers buying into...

Spent $0. Made it to AR 35 and more or less had enough resources to get over that wall but definitely felt the crunch. Decided to play something else instead of logging in 2x a day to do daily commissions and keep from capping resin. Might come back in 1.1 to check it out, but not sure if I...

I saw around 1 PM yesterday that my local Microcenter still had like 10+in stock but you actually had to go to the store. Figure it was a long shot but maybe worth a trip. Get there and there's signs plastered all over that they are sold out.

Semi-related rustle: Get a new PCIe wireless NIC. Now about 1/2 the time after my computer wakes up from sleep/hibernate, can't detect card and need to cold boot. Power management setting fixes and workarounds have done nothing.

Thanks, I don't frequent the tech forum and I am in the market for something newer and bigger but haven't done a ton of research yet. I was going to wait and see if there was anything better from Costco after Black Friday.

First thing I thought of as well. Second thing was more time for Ghost of Tsushima: Legends!

Once you get back in with cables, check your video output and see if it defaulted back to that instead of HDMI. I seem to remember that happening once after a reboot. Or disregard if you've checked already.

I finally decided to break my Genshin Impact habit and started this last Friday with a buddy. Holy fuck it is so fucking good. Why on earth did I wait a week to start this?

What. The. Fuck. P.S. I don't know how many actually follow any wrestling anymore, but I'm hooked on Jim Cornette's podcast. So, a few weeks ago I heard about Ring of Honor going back on the air and essentially re-booting with a Pure Title tournament. I just watched a couple episodes and...

So even though there's not very much "new" storywise, I'm still finding corners of the world I haven't explored yet while farming for resources. So it's still got a little bit of that magic left. Plus, I have to admit the combat is still pretty satisfying. Although I'd appreciate if the drop...

Chongyun is my primary DPS and combos well with Barbara to inflict freeze. That does sort of pigeonhole you into using Amber and Lisa if you want those 2 elements for reactions, but it can probably be overcome. Alternatively, my traveler was my main DPS before I built my current party. You...

I'm assuming you have the free Barbara for making AR 20? I think she's worth using since she's one of the only healers available for F2P without going hard after a 5*. I thought she was good enough that I spent all my spare primogems on Venti banner, not in the hopes of getting Venti, but...

Mtashed is a retarded whale and I wish I could block his videos from showing up in my feed. Same goes for Tectone. Demone Kim isn't bad, he's pretty laid back. My go-to for Genshin content is Mattjestic. Fairly informative videos aimed at F2P and low-spending players and not at stupid...

I'm in on that one for $1. Lot of criticism against Mythic Games for long delays on projects (still waiting on Solomon Kane) plus folks are wondering if DD will really translate well into a board game without turning into a generic dungeon crawler. The minis are definitely sweet though, but I...

RDR2 was a great ride while it lasted. But after it was done, I was like "that was great, I've had enough." No desire to replay it anytime soon. The half-assed Red Dead Online implementation didn't help matters any. Let's not forget the development effort that went into RDR2 though...

That I could totally live with. One other thing I forgot to mention that I found out from some whale's channel: Once you get your talents up to level 8 or so, you can't upgrade them anymore without a 5* drop that only comes from max level Stormterror at the moment. So there's a hard timegate...

Thanks for the update Gator. I'm about in the same boat as you, still slowly doing dailies and farming resources. 1-2 hours a day, and still F2P. Right about where you are at, AR 33 with Chongyun (DPS), Fischl (DPS/Support), Xiangling (Support), and Barbara (Heals). A couple constellations...

I had that commission yesterday. It was a bitch and other people have complained that it was overtuned. But yeah you it sounds like you are gonna be hurting since the world level automatically advanced on you at AR30 and can't ascend. Since you can't de-level the world bosses, I would try to...

Yeah I'd say you could get most of the characters / weapons you want to try out to at least 20/20 and probably through the first ascend and up to 40/40 without a huge sink in resources. Once you go above that, you are looking at a lot more time farming ascension mats.

Controller over KB/M for me, hands down. If you have a mouse with additional mappable buttons, that could work for you as well. Note that the controller bindings on PC are a little backwards (O to select, X to cancel instead of vice versa like the default Playstation mapping) which led me to...

I thought it was common knowledge Nic Cage had massive money problems and needs those paychecks. Whatever, his loss is our collective gain.

Had things come together for a 2:47 and got credit for the achievement. I think the lineup was Fischl, Chongyun, Xiangling, and Jean. Wasn't going to chase too hard after the achievement since there's definitely some RNG in terms of the makeup of your PUG and how hey match up against the mage...

I had it come up on PS4 after maybe 5-6 games. Quick close and re-enter fixed it.

I'm perfectly fine with a slowdown in content rollout because of Cyberpunk and NG+ in Tsushima. But poopsockers gotta poopsock. edit: Fuck yeah

Yes. I pretty much use everything that's 1* and 2* as fodder, haven't had too many shortages yet but being judicious on only doing a few items (usually ATK artifacts) and not taking anything above lvl 4. I think that's something that people have noticed was missing, some universal artifact...

Seen a few 3080 pre-builts from them already. Couple issues I have: 1) How is that company's reputation as a PC builder? 2) As a point of personal pride -- the shame I would incur by resorting to a pre-built.

1.1 comes out on Oct 16. Has the co-op mode we already knew about, NG+ (with additional cosmetics), and loadouts. Goddamn it's nice to have a developer listen sometimes. https://blog.playstation.com/2020/10/05/ghost-of-tsushima-legends-and-new-game-out-october-16/

Do I trust the system to work as intended? No Do I think there's probably already some crazy backlog which means that my spot won't come up until next March? Yes Still signed up though. For all the talk of PC gaming master race, this feels like an abusive relationship.

It will help with some the more out of the way ones that you wouldn't ever find on your own like the one where you need an ice team to go find or whatever, but still going to be some ridiculous PITA finding the last 1-2 of them unless you marked the rough locations of all of them on your map at...

If you can't/don't want to sell them individually, then take the offer, or try getting a better quote from another buyer. Most buyers work on percentage margins, not per card. No way would any serious buyer pick up a card at 390 hoping to flip it for 400. They are usually buying at that 75%...

How can you forget this classic??

If I had to guess, it's that Dominion is also fairly non-interactive, so you really don't lose much by going to the online game, which also streamlines all your shuffling and bookkeeping. If you have access to all that for a relatively non-interactive game, why bother playing it in person?

I like Dominion, but once you get deeper into it, you realize it is more of a straight skill game since there is usually an optimal strategy for any set of 10 buy piles you can create. This was especially apparent once I started looking online and seeing the community solving the game using...

So much this

This meme never gets old and more or less sums up my acceptance of the situation:
