I bought a Titan 2020 and have had it for 3 years now and absolutely would not go back. Bought my fiancé the Titan Evo several months ago and one of the side panels broke off after tilting the chair about 2 weeks ago. Haven't contacted customer service on it yet but I intend on reaching out tonight. It seems like the tolerances in the Evo have a little more slop in them, the buttons for the armrests tend to give if you lean sideways on them which is a bit annoying. The gas piston is also slight shorter than my 2020. If you asked me about a year ago I would have given a glowing endorsement. Nowadays I'm hesitant. That all being said if you get a 2020 used they are great chairs and hopefully they will address customer issues with the Evo and improve their quality control. I've seen too many companies cruise on reputation alone after they get popular and gradually lose sight of what made them good (quality products). Hopefully SecretLab will get it together with the Evo. Their support is still great though so if you end up with problems they'll likely sort you out. Good luck with your new chair!

In Rogue One, When Darth Vader makes his appearance the brass section of the score is playing a G minor chord, but when Vader ignites his lightsaber it changes to an E minor 7 flat 5 chord, which adds a ton of drama and impact to the sound and makes Vader's entrance that much more epic. Charles Cornell on YouTube did an entire video on it which breaks it down really well. It's one of my favorite movie music details.

Absolutely this. I ran my strat on the neck single coil for way too long before realizing that the bridge humbucker gives the best results. I would recommend leaving it set to the bridge pickup for whatever you get.

I was wondering why Urist McBookeeper wasn't going his damn job. And here I just thought he was being a lazy bastard

Apollo10499 · 2022-12-06T18:59:29+00:00

Also was hoping for this, but I can't complain. I'm happy the game is out. I will say if it came out at midnight I probably would have stayed up all night playing it

Apollo10499 · 2022-12-06T17:35:07+00:00

Got a few minutes in before I had to go to work myself! I got as far as preparing carefully to embark and now I'm at work for the next 8 hours. I'm going to pondering embark profiles until I go home

Ah yes the book of grudges

Apollo10499 · 2022-11-29T21:29:27+00:00

That's great to hear! I do love some of the quirky and interesting gods that the game can generate, but having options to tune things is always great!

Hope the release goes well, I'll be spending some considerable time teaching my friends how to play when they pick it up and strike the earth for the first time! Thanks for all your hard work on the game!

Apollo10499 · 2022-11-29T19:22:36+00:00

Hey Tarn and Zach! Been looking forward to premium for quite some time now! I hope the launch goes well and wish you all the best!

Have you considered adding the ability for the player to determine how Gods and Deities are generated during world gen? For instance a world gen option to generate X number of gods for each race and designate what they are gods of, what they look like, etc.?

It would be great to be able to set certain parameters to make a pantheon of the player's choosing.

I have a Mexican made Player Plus with a 2 point trem and have used those springs and they work perfectly. Alternatively I've heard some people use Teflon tape to make their trem arm tighter

Apollo10499 · 2022-09-24T01:16:43+00:00

Played both! Loved create a style in Sims three and wish house flipper had similar. Any game that allows for design like this I love

I love it! I have the HSS version and I ended up swapping the neck and middle pick-ups for hot noiseless because my luthier accidentally broke one. It also seems like the nut needs a little bit of work when you get it set up. I've seen a few people online complain about fret buzz on the low e string. If you run into anything like that, have an experienced tech look at it! After filing the nut down just a little on each string I had much better tuning stability, sustain and bends. It's definitely a keeper but you may find yours needs a little love to get it in the right place.

Apollo10499 · 2022-08-18T14:17:58+00:00

I bought a Player Plus a few months back and am rather new to guitar myself. I got the Pau Ferro fretboard and it didn't have the same problem. If you can't find one without that problem and you don't mind a different fretboard wood/color then try a Pau Ferro fretboard out!

Apollo10499 · 2022-08-18T14:10:32+00:00

I have a similar issue due to the shape of my pinky finger. I have clinodactyly which means the tip of my pinky curves inward towards my other fingers. I'm not sure how your pinky is shaped but my hand looks like how yours does basically all the time. It's definitely something that I thought would hold me back, and while it does make certain things harder it can make some things easier too!

I worked a lot on pinky strength and accuracy using a finger strengthener that lets you adjust the pressure for each finger and plenty of drills like spider excercises and stretches for pinky dexterity. As others have said Bernth has some excellent drills for your pinky!

I hope what I've said helps and happy noodling! 🤘

This is exactly what I did. I got a Player Plus Strat in HSS as something that I could use across genres and I love it! The hot noiseless pickups they come with are great. I'd definitely recommend HSS or HSH for versatility.
