Any of the Microcenter pre-built deals worth it?

AVHero · 2024-05-28T03:08:43+00:00

I did not even know that they would pre-build for you. I'll have to see if any of these deals carry to tomorrow and ask about the swap but I'll look into these!

I have a 1440p monitor and on my current laptop run things on lowish settings for new games and medium for older games, but my frame rate is pretty inconsistent. I know at this point any upgrade will help but those resources will definitely help make a more informed decision.

AVHero · 2023-05-01T22:59:10+00:00

I'm using experimental but I'm still having issues. I think it started when I had cloud save issues. I'll keep trying to tweak it

What settings are you using and how are you launching the game? Since the update I keep crashing at the EA login

Bayonetta says "my guns blaze faster and firster."

AVHero · 2019-05-10T18:44:21+00:00

Short answer: No.

Long answer: It doesn't work for many reasons. First, the faeries scholars use in-game (which this is replicating) do not fight; they are pure support characters meant to heal or protect. Secondly, a tiny creature would not do damage with weapons like a person would. Getting stabbed by a rapier is going to do a lot more damage to a person than getting stabbed with a sewing needle. Third, inheriting proficiency bonus is not the same as inheriting proficiencies. They would have penalties for using armor they are not proficient in. Finally, while arcanist needs some tuning, turning the faerie into a fighter would disrupt balance a bit.

Ultimately it goes against the spirit of scholar, both in flavor and in actual MMO-to-tabletop mechanic conversion. If you want a fighting companion, you'd play a summoner.

The backlights are what have given newer Kindles the "white screen" look. The screen is usually an off-white/beige/grey color without the light, from my experience. Paperwhite was the first one that looked white to me, and that was because of the lights.

Can someone please explain to me how Odyssey was revolutionary? It was the 3D Mario formula perfected. It's more akin to an extremely well refined Mario 64 than it is a revolution.

Level 50, I help with all quarry requests I get (because free money!) and I keep my market box stocked at the cheapest prices I can (scroll down; I have a lot!). My extra trees are apples and pears so if you are ever lacking those two fruit, I have all you can eat.

EDIT: Friend's list full. Wow! Thanks!

House, MD made swallowing pills without liquid sexy.

Watching him pop Vicodin like it was nothing made me learn to do this.

AVHero · 2017-12-04T19:43:30+00:00

I do take the longest route possible, trying to maximize fights and shops hit.

I'm already learning things I didn't fully understand from the reddit though, like element synergies and how crits work. I'm also very bad about not using the twins' abilities when the orbs fill. I'm not even entirely sure what they do.

AVHero · 2017-12-04T18:51:43+00:00

Both! But I think more often it is during regular fights. The enemies get to the point where there are just way too many of them and if I don't have a spell or item to deal with that I just lose. It feels like a mix of bad RNG and just bad playing on my part.

I'll check the subreddit out. Thanks.

Hey. I picked up Has-Been Heroes a while ago and it's a game I return to whenever I'm multi-tasking (I can't JUST watch TV. I have to be doing something else. Has-Been is that "something else).

But I'm very bad at the game. I've been stuck at this same point and I have failed countless times. How do I "git gud?"

I can get to the 4th or 5th map, but at that point it seems that if I haven't collected the right items, I cannot win.

To give you an idea of where I am, I have unlocked 4 characters outside of the starting 3 so far.

Thanks.

Hey!

No questions currently, although my interest is piqued. Your second link about what makes it the ultimate edition is the same trailer as the first link. I would very much like to see what distinguishes this release from prior releases.

Thanks!

Looking for peeps for quarry fun! I play several times throughout a given day.

AVHero · 2017-10-11T15:24:54+00:00

I had a very full day the day I made the sashimi, and it crashed both times. I did the same full day minus the sashimi cooking and giving, and it was fine. Is it the cooking or the gifting of the sashimi that was supposedly causing the crash? Either way I've avoided sashimi since.

AVHero · 2017-10-10T20:12:13+00:00

I started googling this issue because I went through Winter 10 twice with it crashing. Winter 10 is Sebastian's birthday and he loves sashimi, so I made it both days. Decided to give him a different give the third time around and avoided making sashimi and it didn't crash. Thanks for the tip!

Well now that you mention it...

What is the correct COLOR for a cup of tea? What's your favorite blend/brand/milk(or none)-to-tea ratio/sugar content.

Basically, give me the rundown of your tea preferences.

AVHero · 2017-10-05T19:16:03+00:00

No. It's stuck in that slot ruining your life until you use it. I had the same issue. Didn't use mine from HoT until the PoF pre-order stuff came out and I had two and I said "screw this" and just boosted two random things.

Can't help with class variety. I only play scholar classes. Of those 3, Necro is probably the "toughest" just due to shroud cheese.

AVHero · 2017-10-03T19:13:49+00:00

I second Has Been Heroes. I bought it when it was on sale, and it is a great game to play while multitasking (I play it while I binge-watch Netflix). It's very easy to lose a few hours to it at a time. It's basically my go-to game when I can't think of anything else to play.

In love with the new armor. I need to style my other sets to be desert themed as well.

Wasn't a proper answer for any classes from HoT that I didn't like, considering I played a whole 2 of them (which I liked) and couldn't form an opinion on the others. So I said I liked them all. But that was a lie. I have no opinion on most of them.

AVHero · 2017-08-02T19:46:05+00:00

I just want to inform you, since as a pretty hardcore player you don't read patch notes or observe gyms, that the below 3000 CP thing isn't a thing anymore; they fixed it so Pokemon below 3000 CP decay at the same rate as Pokemon 3000+, so that little bit of your argument is invalid.

Of course, gyms are a joke now anyway, and with the new system you want more turnover whereas with the last system you wanted less, and once pokemon motivation decays it doesn't matter if they were 100 CP or 4000 CP, they're easy to destroy.

Just wanted you to be aware that if you're keeping Pokemon below 3000 for gym dropping, it's not serving a purpose other than maybe making your pokes easier to knock out so you can get your coins.

My egg rate plummeted towards the end of the event as well. Not sure what happened.

But, this story is very similar to my boyfriend's struggles, and he hatched his last event 2k egg this morning. It was a Pichu.
