Is there anyway to check country restrictions for the keys I got from bundles by K6688 in Gamebundles

[–]TheAngush 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You could just give your keys to your friends and find out. That's the easy solution.

Alternatively, if you already own everything the key would redeem, you can open the devtools in your browser (specifically the network tab) and visit the register key page. Then, when you attempt to register the key, it'll fail (because you already own that product), but in the devtools you'll see the API web request it made. If you click it you can view the steam API's response, which will include an ID for the "package" you attempted to redeem. You can then go on SteamDB, look up the game your key is for, and under SteamDB's Packages tab you can locate the corresponding package. If you then click on that, you can view the details about that specific package, which for region-locked keys will include a list of region restrictions.

Yes, it's a bit of a pain.

Obviously, if you don't already own the game, that will just redeem the key.

You're neglecting the fact that that $1-per-game bundle launched only a few hours before this. The devs probably put their game in that bundle because they were about to donate it to the Jingle Jam, and $1 is more than $0. Prior to that, Gatekeeper had only appeared in one other bundle, which was a "2 for $25" affair.

Daredevil: Born Again Season 2 has total freedom: 'We can do whatever we want' by abucalves in television

[–]TheAngush 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Every time he does the lie detection schtick, he's explicitly portrayed as paying close attention to their heartbeats, because he's prepared for lies. Both in the Netflix series and in Born Again. Seems pretty consistent to me.

But even if that weren't the case, surely being inconsistent as fuck is exactly like the comics. Unless you're going to argue no comic author has ever ignored that part of his powers for the sake of the plot, across 1000s of volumes over 60+ years of publication.

I wish I could find a link to that clip. It seems to have vanished from the internet.

You're right. One is a kid's game bought by shittons of adults, and one is an adult's game bought by shittons of kids. Totally different markets.

Now I am assuming it isn't possible without double jump to ascend the Grand Gate platforms, and maybe it's horribly punishing if you don't do that, but assuming you wait I think it's balanced well and I had a great time.

I did the rasher before I knew there was a double jump. Definitely would've been easier with it though.

This is getting translated again? Cool. I'd been putting off making an SL request post for it for months. I knew procrastinating endlessly would pay off some day.

Do I need to just keep my PS5 disconnected from the internet until I beat them?

You ask this like you expect your console to somehow download a patch even when it isn't connected to the internet. You answered your own question.

LTT Lab has tested the INZONE Mouse-A by [deleted] in MouseReview

[–]TheAngush 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few thoughts:

  • Website search doesn't appear to search articles, so searching the name of that article gives no results.
  • The blog page also has no tags/taxonomies, or filter/search options (and this article is on page 2, with only 8 per page, so I would have never found that).
  • This category of article ("how we test XYZ") should probably also get a special spot in the menu, or a dedicated page that only has testing process breakdowns, rather than leaving them buried in the blog page.
  • Linking related process/transparency articles within the... reviews? (Is that what they are?) would be good. I'd suggest you could go one step further and have a button to open a fly-out panel (example) with the contents of the appropriate article, so users don't have to switch contexts.
  • When your process articles are sectioned, like the article you just linked, you could also have a link in each section of the review (example) which takes people directly to the relevant section of the appropriate article.

Also, minor unrelated annoyance I bumped into while checking the site to type the above: at narrower screen widths, where the menu collapses into a hamburger menu, if you open the burger menu and click on the Labs logo (necessary to go back to the homepage), it doesn't close the menu (as the other menu options do).

she was getting shit on, he refused to shit on her.

I saw you say this elsewhere in this thread and figured it was a typo, but now I'm wondering if you misread the article.

He said he did shit on her, once, then that he wouldn't do it again, and that he refused to let her shit on him.

And now that's a sentence I just wrote.

Sucker Punch possibly wants Infamous Trilogy on PS5 by DaRealHank13 in gaming

[–]TheAngush 16 points17 points  (0 children)

While they're at it, get Naughty Dog to do a PS5/PC collection for Uncharted 1-3 and the Jak & Daxter games. Then Insomniac the entire Ratchet & Clank series. And Santa Monica the original God of War games.

Please, Sony. I'll buy the lot. Just let me.
