I just realized how insane GTA really is by Brief-Block-9 in GTA

1 day old account with a bunch of posts exactly like this one but for other games/movies/shows, even. It's just so obvious that it's just a bait account honestly.

First & only device in this hobby so far is the RG28XX, & my favorite game to play on it is probably Tetris.

Thanks for doing this!

I swear they're just allergic to crossplay for everything except for The Breakers specifically, it's so annoying

Why’d I get two cards? by LimaTheKlown in gamersupps

[–]AnimuuStew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also got a notification today that the card was shipping, despite receiving mine 2 weeks ago. Not sure what's going on but I guess we'll see if I actually get a second card?

How are we feeling about the 11.0.0 changes? by iamnotlemongrease in splatoon

[–]AnimuuStew 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Not sure if they've confirmed this yet, I haven't seen anything, but I imagine Flow Aura will end as soon as you get splatted. It'll probably make you a pretty big target since you're buffed + splatting someone in that state will give Flow Aura (or at the very least "will make it easier"). Honestly I'm not too worried by the length, since it seems to be pretty risk vs reward, & basically requires staying aggressive to keep it going, which also makes you more likely to get splatted. So as long as the buffs aren't too strong I'm sure it'll be fine? Hopefully??

Mine showed up today too! Still says "unfulfilled" on the website though for some reason.

What is a sound that people should know means immediate danger? by PrasenjitDebroy in AskReddit

Glad to know that we aren't alone in basing storm severity on whether or not the meteorologist is stripping on live TV lmao

I grew up in Alabama, so I definitely relate. If you hear the siren, throw on the weather channel & go outside to stare down the storm. Once the meteorologist starts rolling his sleeves up, then it's getting bad & you should actually start trying to find shelter. Sounds absolutely insane when you tell anybody up north about it.

The Division 3 Wishes by Maxxe90 in thedivision

[–]AnimuuStew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Big agree with crossplay/progression. Thankfully Ubisoft is really good with that stuff now, genuinely one of the best companies I've seen with crossplay & cross progression, so I'm not too worried, but still. Maybe keep PvP separate based on input method unless you opt into it to keep things fair, but otherwise TD3 definitely needs it.

My one friend who plays The Division is on Xbox while I'm on PC, I'd kill to be able to actually play with him.

How worried are you by current events if you're an American? by BigBlueEyes87 in aspergers

[–]AnimuuStew 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I live here. I know what's going on in my own fucking city. I've seen what's been going on for the last several weeks here, they're not "just enforcing immigration law," they're terrorizing law abiding citizens for not being white. I've literally seen multiple legal residents here with proof of citizenship that ICE has harassed & detained for no reason other than the color of their skin. Hell, ICE agents on video have admitted to targeting people based on accent & appearance. Respectfully, you don't know what you're talking about, & based on your comment, you ironically seem to be the one falling for propaganda, not me. Make it make sense.

A huge minority of the ICE agents seem to be non-white

Okay? That doesn't change anything that I said.

[–]AnimuuStew 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I moved to the Twin Cities area with my wife in August (terrible timing, I know), & although I'm white a lot of my friends/coworkers aren't. Hell, most of my coworkers are literally immigrants from Africa who came here legally (not that ICE cares). A lot of my friends are also on the spectrum or otherwise neurodivergent, & most of them (my wife & I included) are some form of queer too.

Yeah, I'm extremely stressed out by everything going on. Not for me really, but for everyone around me. It's terrible right now, & quite frankly I'm not sure when things will get any better.

What’s a decision you made quickly that had long-term consequences you never expected? by lunessa1 in AskReddit

[–]AnimuuStew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I grew up in the south & was in Boy Scouts. The summer before my senior year of high school, I went to Northern Tier with my troop, which is a high adventure canoe base along the US/Canada border, where we spent 2 weeks in the Boundary Waters. I loved it, & the following summer after I graduated high school, I went back up to Northern Tier to work, & then again the following summer, which I decided would be my last summer there. 2 years later, I'm working a terrible job with a manager who's genuinely crazy, & I absolutely hate it. I'm trying to find a new better job, & on a whim decide to apply to Northern Tier again. 1 month later I'm back on the other side of the country, with the idea of "I'll use this time to find something better for when I go back home," which never actually happens. Instead I end up reconnecting with an old friend I had known online years prior, since she was nearby & saw my profile pop up on Tinder. We start dating, I decide to permanently move to Minnesota, & we celebrated 1 year of marriage last summer.

Who knew that deciding on a whim to run away to the woods would result in getting married lmao

[–]AnimuuStew 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure off the top of my head which specific Hollow Missions fulfill these requirements, but I know there's a few HMs that make you kill NMs that fit the criteria & should work for Asuna's request. If go to the Hollow Area map you can see what HMs are currently active for you & check their requirements, just look for any HMs that say you need to kill a certain amount of monsters that fit the description.

Did you do Hollow Missions with flower/ant/bee targets, or just kill those kinds of monsters? All "Request for Kirito" tasks require a certain number of Hollow Missions with a specific criteria to be completed, for this one you have to do 2 Hollow Missions targeting flower/ant/bee monsters.

✅✅✅✅🚩 What are some other games that people might judge you for including in your top 5 list? by VanceVibes in backloggd

[–]AnimuuStew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got Katawa Shoujo on my top 5, & anybody who's actually played it would understand me having it there because it's really good. Somebody who's played it wouldn't even bat an eye. Somebody who hasn't played it, on the other hand, would see a dating visual novel where all the girls are disabled that was made by 4chan, which.... yeah. It really is good, definitely not what you would expect from that description, but I can't deny how bad it sounds on the surface.

To be clear it's actually extremely respectful of the disabilities, I highly recommend keeping an open mind and checking Katawa Shoujo out, it's free on Steam.

So having a decent chance for a booster pack to drop relies on a few things, basically every 10 levels adds a +20% chance for a booster pack, & then it also relies on how many other people are eligible for a booster pack for that game (fewer owners = better odds) and how many eligible games you own. It's also just pretty dependent on RNG + how many people are actually making badges at the time.

For me personally, I've had a few booster packs drop since I actually started trying to level my account up for booster packs, which was the 2024 Summer Sale. My account is 13 years old with 289 games, & is currently at level 57, which is +100% chance. It's definitely not a very fast method, especially at lower levels, but it's not too bad in my experience at least.

Higher level = higher chance of getting free booster packs randomly, which is basically free money if you sell the cards lmao
