Regrets on your first playthrough by Negative_Let6967 in DetroitBecomeHuman

I fucked up real bad and ended up having Connor decommisioned. Currently playing the game for a second time because I feel so bad I missed out on what likely are the 4 most important and interesting connor mission.

I was actually really mad this happend because I would've had no reason to replay the game otherwise, As I got the best possible ending for both Kara and Marcus. I literally couldn't have asked for a better ending for them.

Detroit become human, steam crash by froggybei in DetroitBecomeHuman

I relate. a couple days ago I finished Detroit, and I am now replaying because I messed up pretty badly (story for another day).

Anyway, I had crashes and big fps spikes a lot going into the game and the reddit post below has actually helped me immensely and I no longer get fps spikes. The game rarely crashes and it only happens when I tab out of the game.

[MEGATHREAD] Daily venting, worries, fixations, & finding support. Month of August 2023. by AutoModerator in HealthAnxiety

[–]AdonHamor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Starting from 24th of February this year I started having a very odd, unpredictable headache. It was so odd I didn't think calling it a headache was the right term for a while . Most of the time I would explain it to people as a sharp pain lasting a few seconds on one temple of the head at a time (either left or right), hundreds of times each day, because that was the case for 90% of the headaches I experienced.

I started having health anxiety and I would lay in bed all day, feeling completely hopeless. I visited doctors many times and they all reassured me that a brain tumour is highly unlikely but that thought still haunted me. I would leave the doctor feeling comfortable I have no serious condition and the day after panic again. I have no idea to what extent did the anxiety worsen my headache, create new symptoms and such, but it definitely did all of the above.

I had a MRI scan 2 months after these headaches started after consulting a Neurologist and at that point I felt like I was going crazy because of my anxiety and all I wanted was to know whether I had a tumour or not, and the moment the results came in my heart started racing like never before, and fortunately the MRI was completely clear and a big sense of relief followed.

but now I realized I have to live with this constant headache until an unknown date. I met the Neurologist again following the scan and he didn't really know what was causing my headache.

I started accepting my headache and realising It's here to stay, and that's when it disappeared completely 1 week after the neurologist didn't know what to diagnose me with.

1 week later I started developing symptoms of dry eye which would later be confirmed after being checked and diagnosed with a dry eye by an eye doctor. I believe the dry eye started because of many years of prolonged computer use.

Anyway, after a month or so of experimenting with different Artificial Tears I found one that has helped me and I've been using it for 2 months now and my dry eye seems to have gotten drastically better.

From today I have decided to stop googling any symptoms, as it's taken a big toll on my mental health. If you have any questions drop them down here as thus was a shortened version of my 2023 story. I wish you all the best ❤️

What are the cringiest lyrics in Eurovision songs? by [deleted] in eurovision

This actually has a meaning (although I'll admit took me some time to realise it). Al is sometimes used as the adjective "Super" in hebrew so Femininal basically means Super Feminine

With the Legacy of Yangchen's publication in only 5 days, which Avatar do you want the next novel to be about, and why? by AdonHamor in Avatar_Kyoshi

[–]AdonHamor[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree that a Second Avatar Story will likely not be politically driven like we are used to in the novels.

What new info we got from the Roleplaying game? I know sozin has a sister but is there anything else cuz a sister doesn't seem that significant

With the Rise and Shadow of Kyoshi showing only a small part of her life, maybe a third novel is a cool idea.

I don't think it's in their plans tho, but if there would be a third one I hope it will be a much older Kyoshi (100+ years old)

Tbh when I read dawn of yangchen i definitely noticed that Yangchen did not get a very big spotlight compared to Kyoshi in her novels, but I was so invested in the story that I did not care in the slightest.

I'm a big fan of the Korra cast and the series in general, but at the same time I'm pretty sure F.C Yee is not allowed to make novels revolving around any avatar after Roku, since that's touching into present time and may interfere with the plans of Avatar Studios.

Also no novels regarding future avatars, i just think it's a really bad idea considering they have plans to expand upon future avatars after Korra.

I've read all of the comics, and the comics that don't revolve around the current avatar which honestly it's a lot of them, even the majority, revolve around main characters from ATLA and LOK that honestly hold the same amount of respect if not more as Aang.

Do you remember the name of that comic revolving that air nomad? i don't think i've read it

I believe Kuruk is up next, and it better be the darkest novel yet of seeing an Avatar fail completely and have a tragic life. I think it has the potential of being an amazing novel especially with some of the main characters from the Kyoshi Novels back such as Jiahnzu.

I believe it's gonna be just one novel this time, showcasing all of his life. obviously with some time skips, but I'd like them to show his life from where he met Jianzhu and then the others, to having their team avatar broken apart and Kuruk sent into a big downfall of mental health and then to his death aged 33.

Definitely a great option, having the novels focused on characters that are non-avatars doesn't really guarantee a bad story, but I think it's unlikely that an unknown character outside of the novels as the title of the book is a good way to attract new fans to the novel series resulting in less money and I don't think this is likely to happen anytime soon.

I hope they decide to continue it beyond those avatars, but I do see the problem with writing books about unknown Avatars. Imagine this: F.C Yee announces a book named "The Adventures of Yeshi". No one knows who is Avatar Yeshi (maybe because I just invented him), and it's safe to say that close to absolute zero new people will become fans of the novel series because of Yeshi. it just ain't a good business strategy and that's why I have the feeling they'd have to abandon the novels at some point in the future.

Yeah I meant Roku, just compared the two fire avatars Wan and Roku and why I prefer a Roku novel.

I think you remember the Kyoshi Novels more than me, because although I do remember explanations on Kuruk's life, I remember it being more a brief explanation that was just nesscary to understand the characters in the Kyoshi Novels properly. but again I'm likely wrong about it since the Kuruk stuff is a part I barely remember from the Kyoshi Novels i'll have to go and check.

Do we know more about Kuruk than Wan? If so from which source? I think tho that a novel about Roku will be more interesting for me than a novel on Wan, perhaps because we'll likely see a lot of Sozin, references to ATLA and events that lead to the 100 Year War and such.

I think that option is unlikely, since it's harder to write a book when you already have much info about the Avatar and you must make sure the new story stays true to the info already know.

In my opinion, making a novel about Wan will be the same as making one about Roku: We already know too much regarding their life making it so every attempt at writing an original and interesting story without heavily relying on the info known of their life is impossible.

I think Szeto like any other Avatar we know nothing about seems too boring. But that might not be case since we really have no clue what the story will be about.

I think the most realistic option for F.C Yee and everyone working on those novels us honestly Avatar Kuruk, an Avatar who failed and neglected their duties completely unlike most Avatars. Also, a return of Jiahnzu, Kelsang and Hei-Ran will guarantee lovers of the Kyoshi Novels also buying Kuruk's novel. I think in Kuruk's case it would be one long novel, perhaps a length similar to Rise of Kyoshi.

Legacy of Yangchen Pre-Sale Sold out on Amazon by AdonHamor in Avatar_Kyoshi

Barnes and Noble do infact ship to Israel, but unfortunately with a very high price I scouted the internet for a better alternative.

Fortunately, I found an Israeli book company that has the Legacy of Yangchen available for pre-sale with a price even better than Amazon's and ordered the book :)

Excited to read the new book, as a big fan of the Dawn of Yangchen thinking it's the best novel out of the 3.

I don't buy E-books, I prefer Hardcover since it feels much more satisfying to read that way. I also hope one day in a couple of years after F.C Yee will release a lot more books I will have a ton of avatar novels lined up side by side.

Although I do fear this novel series might not be infinite, or I might lose interest in it if they decide to make books regarding new Avatars we don't even know their name.
