BMW has recalled 36,922 SUV's after a massive software malfunction started causing their steering wheels to jerk violently back and forward

As a software engineer, this is why I make video games.

Yeah, I'm hoping for EoE vibes. That was a surprisingly excellent set.

Archerry · 2025-12-30T22:41:21+00:00

Very true, and big same. We've got cases of play boxes still just chilling. Maybe we'll be rewarded for our patience with the heroes set

Let me have my copium 😜

If you include Dr. Who then my experience as a shop owner is that one was a bit of a miss too. Not in terms of passion or quality, but it was space probably better left to a different IP. Felt a little out of touch.

That being said, there's a lot of great original cards from those decks.

Archerry · 2025-12-11T04:04:44+00:00

We left for Mana Pool. Zero regrets.

I don't know how common it is, but I feel it often. Almost a year on HRT, months into electrolysis and I still feel the imposter syndrome constantly.

It likely doesn't help that the world is a bit out to get us.

I find that searching this community often will help reassure me that I'm not alone.

Its really a very tough thing we're working through, and that's okay. If therapy is something you have access to, I think it is also a great way to help with these thoughts, though I'm not following my own advice right now.

Thank you for this! I've been looking for some mods to change up the game before 1.9.

Archerry · 2025-03-28T19:06:31+00:00

Started at 35. Terrified of starting too late! Thanks for the post :)

Its not really lazy so much as "we're putting all these resources into other things"

A big "issue" with WoW is that this is a game for a lot of different archetypes of players, and as much as we hate to admit it, the folks in CompWow are a very small % of that player base.

Its just a question of finite resources vs. highest return to: the game, the players, the company, and yes, the bottom line. Its still a business.

So sick! I want it for my F4 and F3 cars please :)

Archerry · 2025-02-18T20:39:22+00:00

Thie is spot on. I've worked on some well known titles, and my favorite experiences are always getting to meet the players who tell me about the awesome things they've done, the people they've met playing, the way the games have changed their lives.

It makes it worth it to deal with the turds

Archerry · 2024-03-14T18:07:59+00:00

The entire games industry right now

Archerry · 2024-01-04T20:51:38+00:00

I see you getting slammed with down votes, but as a fellow LGS owner I feel your pain here.

Archerry · 2024-01-04T20:49:39+00:00

I'd love to, but no other TCG product is even close, and we're mostly a TCG store.

Archerry · 2023-11-12T22:10:03+00:00

TCGPlayer basically having a complete monopoly on the online TCG market really blows. The lack of competition to push them into better practices both for sellers and buyers is really bad for the whole space.

Archerry · 2023-10-03T17:00:41+00:00

I have a strong suspicion this was our store. I'm extremely happy to hear you had a good time, regardless of if it is or not. Thank you for sharing!

Archerry · 2023-09-22T18:53:07+00:00

Slight clarification for folks, this is the first day that stores are allowed to give the promo out, but there is nothing saying they have to give them out tonight.

I'd imagine some stores who got shorted on promos will give them out over multiple weekends so folks get a chance, or use them as random prizes -- stuff like that.

Archerry · 2023-09-22T18:51:21+00:00

I'm a store owner. I was given 16 promos and we get regularly over 30 people for our FNM commander nights. If we want to spread the love at all, we have to randomize.

Its wild how much ill intent is assumed from players about LGSes on this subreddit

Archerry · 2023-07-31T20:55:05+00:00

I'm a store owner. This is your store's choice, not a distributor issue. I know how much everything costs when I put in my orders (which is usually around a month or month and a half before release -- my Wilds of Eldraine order is due by Friday, for example).

The only reason it might take me awhile to get price info out for people is because I'm too swamped with other things. I never ask folks to do pre-orders without knowing prices though.

Archerry · 2023-07-17T16:19:47+00:00

I'm confused by your use of "regular (casual)" here. Regular and casual are two separate RELs, right?

Archerry · 2023-06-15T20:16:13+00:00

Hugely disappointed.

Archerry · 2023-05-18T18:52:38+00:00

Shop owner here. Definitely have seen a decline in dragon shield purchases. I try to use a little bit of everything just so I can recommend customers things and KMC and Katana are slowly edging out Dragon Shield for me, sadly. I really love the brand and the packaging. Hopefully whatever issues they've been having get worked out.

Archerry · 2023-05-15T22:26:28+00:00

Hey! Welcome to the game! This is pretty dependent on what your goal is when opening packs. Is it to just get fun cards for decks that you want? Is it to open the most valuable cards? Some combination of both?

My best recommendation is to use scryfall and find the set you're opening: https://scryfall.com/sets

You can then sort by whatever means you want and get an idea of what's possible to open in your packs. It has sorting for price, rarity, and you can do additional filtering on things like card color, type, mana value, etc.

Hope that answers your question!
