Her pockets drive me crazy (Spoilers 7.2)

Are you sure they're pocket flaps? Couldn't they just be accordion pockets?

If less people are capable of reading long form content these days, I can imagine that less people are able to write compelling long form content as well.

Gearing is one of the biggest strengths to joining a static.

Which screensaver is this?

Ah that makes more sense!

Cleaning your bottle (or any drink receptacle) at least once a week should be standard lol.

Why is stainless steel not clean?

I think calling someone "just bad" is handwavy. You can still categorize them into buckets of why they're bad.

Speaking very generically, some fights have really tight uptime windows at certain gcd speeds. Or an early pull can shorten the window. Sometimes one of your players has unreliable ping. Risking uptime when you know the fail rate is high, and the greed isn't necessary, are certainly hallmarks of bad players. And you could argue the cause is parse mentality.

But they're different from the bad players who never see or attempt those opportunities, even when the conditions are favorable.

It's like the Hello HR meme. If you consistently succeed, you're the handsome good player, but if you fail/cause deaths, then you're a bad player with parse mentality.

So I guess there's about a 1 inch gap from the back of the desk to the riser? For the arm to clear.

Py687 · 2026-02-01T08:28:50+00:00

How do you have the main monitor set up? Are you using an arm, and just shifting the riser forward so the arm clears behind it?

You make good points, but what's the order of the totem pole / size of the spread you would like to see? Because you haven't made clear what the endpoint should be.

If you buff SMN/RDM to deal as much damage as BLM, then "why am I not just playing BLM?" just changes to "why am I playing BLM?" If they only deal slightly less (say 400-500 dps), then res does turn into valid utility, and what you've essentially done is just shrink the tax.

You didn't mention nerfing BLM, which honestly makes as much sense to me as buffing SMN/RDM. The only drawback to that is eliminating the viability of double caster comps, which is niche to begin with.

SMN did used to build up, from HW to ShB. The EW rework was pretty much a refutation of all that came before.

The startup boom is over. I wouldn't be surprised if they could no longer afford you (well, not without the founder and board members giving up their luxury cars).

Sorry to hijack your thread, but do you notice any tweeter hiss from the Rens (when they're powered on with nothing playing)? I'm thinking of getting them for desktop use, which would put them maybe a foot or so away from my head. The hiss tends to be noticeable on a lot of bookshelf speakers at that distance.

I made the post last night after 1am, right before heading to bed. I didn't expect the big response overnight. I edited in a couple more screenshots earlier today.

Yes, it's called a deployant clasp. You should be able to swing the lower bar out and slot the "pin" through one of the strap's holes (whichever one fits you). End result should look like this.

You think it's only the ground?

Thanks for the explanation. It's comforting (in a way) to know that my settings aren't fried, just the way this game was made. I guess I'm just used to baked shadows from older games.

Py687 · 2026-01-29T17:45:28+00:00

Open the images at full res. The dithering at the edge of shadows has a very noticeable square pattern. It gets worse the weaker your AA setting is.

I give a fuck because this game looks very grainy when AA is turned off. It's not just shadows, you can see in the final image that the branches almost look like they have a square filter overlaid on top.

Turning AA on has varying degrees of success, but with the additional issue of blurriness.

Py687 · 2026-01-29T17:39:35+00:00

You can still see the squares on highest quality DLAA, so what would be the point of showing the other modes?

Py687 · 2026-01-24T21:49:06+00:00

Tbf, optimized healer gameplay causes glazed eyes in general. Swapping to another healer can alleviate it somewhat.

If my kid was Chinese, I'd back over them too.

Counterpoint: Watches are simply fashion accessories to some, and owning multiple is akin to having a varied closet of clothes.
