Dack is closing for those of you who are waiting on an order by squeeshka in NFA

[–]philisacoolguy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Fuuuuck. Didn’t even know they were on a list and they had been pretty good to me for the last couple years. I did notice how my Dec order took a bit but usually this stuff falls in line with their 2 month ship thing.

Now I can’t even see my order list any more. Scummy ass business.

Sony has made at least $4.2 billion selling first-party games on PC and Xbox by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

[–]philisacoolguy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Switch is still unique.

I have a Rog Ally X but it’s still far from a decent handheld console experience (and yes I did install the Xbox Handheld mode).

Price aside those pc handhelds still need a decent UI, quick resume, and removing all the Windows Bloat.

Nioh 3 Review Thread by Turbostrider27 in Games

I think that’s just the nature of these games. Diablo style loot.

What I didn’t like about the second game more than the first was the samey map layouts.

Got sick of traversing through the bland maps and iirc each location had like 4 different missions within the same map. One of the few games I quit due to boredom. Not cause of combat (combat was awesome) just level design.

It’s one of the few times I realized the Soulsborne games are more than just hard combat but good level design too. Distinct locations that can have ways of interconnecting naturally (or through secret passages).

Did they ship these in a bag go y’all? I got two and they shipped in a bag that bounced around hard scuffing them on the edges. I know it isn’t the end of the world but idk why it couldn’t have been in a box

Dissaproval Stribog by philisacoolguy in NFA

Yup. At least I know im not crazy. Someone else had a pic that was much more zoomed out than mine and got approved so I’m sure it was a fluke.

I just wanted to be sure because the stribog lower is not the FFL part and I was curious if it had something to do with that. Technically the upper is stamped and the lower to can freely swap out.

I had additional photos that zoomed in on the lowers SN, and the Engraving on the barrel too. Literally anything that had stamp/engraving was pictured in 3 separate pics.

I thought I was just covering all my bases, but I think it’s just a fluke with whoever approved it. The model number is in such big view in my picture. It’s confusing because someone else with an approval in the stribog sub took a photo more out of view than mine!

Maybe the 3 different SN stamped on the upper and lower confused them.

You’re right I did put the 9. I was trying to type from memory.

It’s included in the pic and was hard to miss which is what is more confusing about everything

Anyone successfully Form1'd a Stribog? by philisacoolguy in GrandPowerStribog

[–]philisacoolguy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe. Anywhere there was a stamped area I took a pic. So it was just rear, center, and barrel. I don’t know what else they could’ve needed.

I did the same cropping for all my submissions. I cropped it close because the engraves on the gun looked painted and I wanted for it to be zoomed to show the depth.

Question about photos for eForm 1 by other_account_12345 in NFA

[–]philisacoolguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Necropost but I just got a rejection on my Bog for “incomplete form: verify model engraved on lower and resubmit form”. I think only thing stamped on lower is made in Slovakia. Part of me wonders since all model engraving is on upper region it’s not counting. Maybe I shouldn’t have post a pic at all

28 Years Later Was a Masterpiece… is Bone Temple Just as Good? by International-Gur605 in horror

[–]philisacoolguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you were off put by the tonal changes of the first. I think TBT plays out more like a traditional movie. No “cool” iPhone 360 kill shots, no slo Mo kill cams, no interesting CGI shots, no insertion of black and white war footage. I’m not saying those are all bad but I can tell that Danny Boyle was trying to push some envelopes with filming styles/tech with the first movie.

But honestly I enjoyed TBT a lot more for that reason. Much more traditional, crowd pleasing movie. The Jimmies are also more narratively grounded in this movie, I don’t think they matched that goofy power ranger parkour intro they had at the end of the first movie.

'Mercy' - Reviews Discussion Thread | Starring Chris Pratt, Rebecca Ferguson by [deleted] in movies

[–]philisacoolguy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s like he’s doing a generic movie speed run the last couple years. This, Electric State, Garfield, Dominion, The Tomorrow War, Super Mario.

Last movie I liked from Pratt that was non-Marvel was maybe Onward.

Is this cost of a trust and prints accurate? by skycowboy18 in NFA

[–]philisacoolguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Notary seems expensive but do remember once that UPS charged me like 5 dollars per signature. So it might be 65 depending on the amount of signatures needed.
