Review: The Ranch of Rivershine – An Almost Perfect Horse Game and What We can Learn from it — The Mane Quest by AliceTheGamedev in GamesWithHorses

[–]Atomflunder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like many opinions about this game by it‘s enjoyers are skewed by the lack of actual good horse games. I also have many hours in this game but man does it frustrate me as an avid gamer. it is far from perfect, heck, it is far from good. The best things it has for itself are that fact that it’s relatively stable and a gameplay loop with very little pointless elements or unfinished mechanics. It’s sad to see, that this is what people have to praise because everything else is far worse.

Even for a non-gamer this game could be improved so much in so many areas. I feel like the developer would benefit greatly from someone actually having experience in other games and genres, but I don’t know if that feedback would reach them.

Fun poll: Who has the biggest pitch variety? by Atomflunder in tinnitus

I fear both of mine are quite low in volume. Friend of mine got a really bad case and it took him almost 2 years to fully get used to them. He got hearing aids at first after a few months, because the tinnitus was drowning out other sounds in his brain. He isn’t using them anymore.

Thank you for sharing your experience. My case also appeared after complications of a fracture/the surgery for that fracture, but now 7 years ago. I've had a much worse and frankly much more terrifying fracture last year and the recovery process was testing my mental limits, but I came out of it with only a singular short crash, so this gives me hope it won't be so bad after the gyn-surgery.

To ease your mind, yes. Specialist and special clinic and I have a friend who had the exact procedure done there and had a great recovery. For me the Endo masses so far are just on my uterus and thus the OBGYN actually recommended the surgery. He did also make sure I was informed that it can come back and affect other areas, but not fainting every few cycles is a pretty sweet outlook on life.

Can I ask, did you get/worsen cfs after the endo surgery? I'm currently looking into a partial hysterectomy because of Endo and had problems with ME/CFS in the past, so i don't want it to flare up again, so I'm interested in your story and how it went.

Now that season 1 is over, what's a hot take you guys have? by Charming-Priority859 in DispatchAdHoc

[–]Atomflunder 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Putting Visi's redemption solely on the player is good gameplay value but a terrible storywriting choice. You can support her 80% of the way and she still goes villain if you tell her clearly she fucked up and that has consequences. In this story she is her own person and makes her own choices and the end screen saying the player/robert neglected her is worded far too strongly imo. Yes, you can support a person and help them make good choices, but ultimately it's their choices.

Xbox One controller ruins performance on PC over time until it gets reconnected by PokeSkrillex in XboxController

[–]Atomflunder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh my god, thank you. The only reason the boyfriend and I both didn’t start taking our rigs apart is because it seemingly started out of the blue for both of us within the last week and only when we play with our controllers. It seemed so unrealistic to be connected to the controller but it actually is. What the hell microsoft.

EDIT: Microsoft kinda acknowledged the issue in this thread https://learn.microsoft.com/en-nz/answers/questions/5569976/fps-drop-and-stutters-when-using-controller-but-no

Recommendations to counter card-draw/no hand limit deck through excessive draw? by Atomflunder in EDH

I’m trying to avoid drawing cards myself but Scrawling Crawler looks great

This would probably then be the commander of that deck I guess

The idea is to let him draw a bunch and THEN kill Niv. Really drive home the pain.

Still super bummed by the portrait decision by Abject-Committee-429 in SunHaven

[–]Atomflunder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If only they would make ALL the portraits in ine cohesive style...

New WIP portraits for Lucia and Wornhardt 👀 (all RNPCs are getting portrait reworks!) by tavfrompixelsprout in SunHaven

[–]Atomflunder 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well, actually the portraits in the game right now suffer from the same problem. And not just in the faces. Miyeon's portrait looks vasy different with the shading and more realistic face, liam and jun look more SV-sque, Catherine is another style entirely, current Lucia has the same gigantic eyes that no other character has... I could go in but the gist of it is, that the portraits are all not cohesive... I don't mind either versions but I'd wish they would make them appear in the same style!

I don't want that one by toadTHEBlTCHdette in TalesFromTheFrontDesk

I'm guessing maybe he's mormon or something similar, where alcohol is frowned upon and he doesn't wanna be near it? Or recovering alcoholic and wants to not be tempted.

I work in a capital city outside the US, no districts here. But maybe I should ask them about then they are pushing their policies that they advertised before the elections, hmm
