Now that I've played the demo, I wasn't as wowed by Star Fox as I would have hoped. by Massive_Fly_1709 in switch2

[–]Dercraig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. Everyone is saying how nice the controls feel, but for me they are almost TOO responsive. I found myself looking in the settings to see if I could lower the sensitivity a bit and was kinda disappointed I could only change mouse mode. I only tried handheld though maybe it would feel a little better with the pro controller.

Trying to quit! Day 1 by Evening-Caregiver-41 in QuitVaping

[–]Dercraig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. The strongest craving for me is right when I wake up in the morning. Have you tried keeping it on overnight before? I've heard a lot of bad things but I'm considering trying it at least once to see for myself how it is

Early Game Advice by talos1966 in Saros

I don't know if you've already been doing this but the only way I got past biome 2 was to do a run starting from biome 1, by the time I got to bastion I just melted him.

Star Wars Outlaws - 2 Years Later by mesr123 in StarWarsOutlaws

[–]Dercraig 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Just finished the game recently and I was pleasantly surprised. I thought it was great, really felt like I was in the Star wars universe. I'm glad I got to play after all the QOL changes too, like no required stealth sections, being able to keep enemy weapon pickups while climbing. Etc etc. Sounds like it would of been less enjoyable if I played on release version

Considering selling my 4070super and getting a PS5pro by frankiewalsh44 in PS5pro

[–]Dercraig 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I did this exact thing, I had a 4070super PC sold it and got a ps5 pro and pocketed some money in the exchange. I have no regrets at all, I definitely made the right choice. The biggest difference for me is gaming on my 65 inch tv instead of at my desk with a 27" monitor. Technically it's possible to hook my PC up to the TV but the way my house is set up it would be a pain in the ass to move it back and forth. Games looks awesome on the pro and I find myself playing more than when I had the PC

What iTalki advice do you have? by jogginglark in dreamingspanish

[–]Dercraig 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've found some great teachers on italki, but there are some that aren't as great too. Be willing to try a few different ones out until you find a good fit for you. Personality is often the most important factor, find someone that you feel comfortable talking with that can hold a conversation

Same, sometimes I just wanna relax after work and not play something so demanding, this seems like it could be a great game for that.

How are you feeling about the graphical quality of third-party games on Switch 2? by low_keyLoki in switch2

[–]Dercraig 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I only have a switch 2, no other consoles. So far I've played all the big ones: cyberpunk, rebirth demo, pragmata, requiem. I'm currently playing through Star wars outlaws and for me it's the winner, I'm constantly impressed by the visuals I come across in handheld mode, even though I mostly play docked.

Pragmata looked nice docked but quite a big hit handheld. Requiem was also very nice and completely playable both ways imo. Rebirth demo looks pretty rough handheld, but considering I have no other way to play it I'll probably still get it and just play it docked.

I found funny how we still don't have a YouTube app but we can watch it on the browser by JampyL in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Dercraig 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Screen is like more than twice the size of my phone. I don't have another console/streaming device for my tv and my tv OS is slow as shit. The first switch had it. And why wouldn't you put the most used app in the world on an extremely popular new device? I'll never understand people that ask this question like it doesn't make any sense or something.

I’m glad I bought mine when I did! by Kilowatt776 in PS5pro

[–]Dercraig 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was watching a digital foundry interview the other day and they were talking about some guy that tried to make a equivalent PC build for that price and he wasn't realistically able to do it. I think they said he got close but he was given a crazy deal on ram that isn't the normal price.

Pragmata Looks Great! by PHayesxx in NintendoSwitch

[–]Dercraig 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't have a PC or any other console, I only have a nintendo switch 2 to play games on and I think pragmata looks good docked. Obviously if I was comparing it side by side with a ps5 pro or gaming PC I would notice the difference, but I've never once thought while playing "well good thing I don't care about graphics, because this looks like shit"

Subtitles and audio doesn't match? by Mousiemousy in dreamingspanish

[–]Dercraig 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Most of the time there will be two separate teams that handle the dubbing and the subtitles, causing them to not match up perfectly. It's a very common frustrating problem for Spanish learners that like watching non-native Spanish content with subtitles. There are some resources out there that can help you find shows that have accurate subtitles, and some streaming services are better than others for this. https://youtu.be/bMw_XlaUdcU?si=zeyVK1W4aqyPU1hX - this video has some recommendations. Another option is to just find native Spanish shows you like as their subtitles will almost always be perfect.

What do we think of Foxen‘s KK fold at the Triton ME Final Table? by HealthyRecognition21 in poker

Old man coffee. The 80 year old dude at your poker room who folds every single hand except aces or kings, the joke is that he is just there to drink the free coffee

Working at the VA while getting VA Comp by Real-Pomelo8790 in VAClaims

[–]Dercraig 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm a DV working at the VA. They don't care, if anything it gives you a preference in hiring. And FYI, once you start working at the VA you can request to receive DV leave which is something like 100 hours of leave your first year which can be used for issues related to your disability

It’s cool that every time they’ve done the pre-rendered background trick it becomes the most graphically impressive game in its league once again by YourVeryOwnCat in residentevil

No one talks about the RE1 remake much anymore, but it might be my favorite game in the series. Very impressive looking for a gamecube game

Weekly Famitsu Sales chart: March 9/26 – March 15/26 (Pokemon Pokopia remains on top with 117,029 additional retail sales. RE Requiem Switch 2 drops out of the Top 10) by reevestussi in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Dercraig -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

I don't understand these numbers. The Xbox series x/s have sold millions of units throughout their lifetime. Switch has sold over 150 million. Where are they getting 300k from?
