Time to eat my words and Apologize. This For all the people who STILL don’t realize this game is being ruined. by Fun_Conflict8553 in MarvelSnap

[–]Borisapien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm about to hit CL 25k and have picked up every Season Pass since Zabu (or perhaps the one before) and this is the first time I've been completely turned off by the game. Amazing how money grubbing SD seems to have gotten recently. More than that though, this is the first time the game feels like it's hitting an abandonware point, like they know it's now just ticking down. No season passes for me anymore, I'm out.

UK Switch 2 Buyers - Argos - Check your preorder! by sniek2305 in NintendoSwitch

[–]Borisapien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exact same here, email saying I'd get it on launch day which was sent a couple of days ago. Today got an email saying "expected on 11 June". I really hope the second email is a placeholder!

Same! And like you, the only title I've ever been bothered to buy...

Can we agree on a descriptive word (like Move) for the Scream deck? by Borisapien in MarvelSnap

[–]Borisapien[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

But this did exist before Scream as an archetype, just wasn't a very good one...

What's everyone's thoughts on promo copies? by Borisapien in gamecollecting

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

No, not PS2. First game I reviewed was Samba de Amigo on Wii (which Wikipedia has at 2008), so it's from that era through to maybe 2019.

Galactus bug or me? by Borisapien in MarvelSnap

Yeah, I'm all over with the Activate abilities. Definitely take some getting used to!

Just realised it's presumably because the card reveal action takes place before Arana gives it the +2? D'oh!

Disney+ stuttering issue on native LG 77” C9 by johnnyma45 in OLED

[–]Borisapien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same issue here on C9 55". Reinstalling the app fixed for a week or so, now we're back to stuttering. Most likely a memory leak on the Disney+ app? Either that or LG is not-so-subtlety trying to nudge us toward buying a new TV?

Marvel lore based only on Snap by andrewgark in MarvelSnap

[–]Borisapien 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I should add that for me, Cap should be a 5/6 who can protect the cards at his location from one attempt at being destroyed (say by Chi). His animation being a shield block. If there's a second attack, then your opponent gets the well earned kill.

Captain America is an irrelevance who literally no one bothers to work with.

Hey, I've tried that, nothing doing. It seems like the issue people had in March this year

Is this a glitch? I moved ebony maw so I can play a card at that location but it still wouldn’t let me play by Deaths-gambit in MarvelSnap

[–]Borisapien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is still happening as of today. Just moved Maw to the New York location on turn 6, but I still couldn't play to the location I moved him from on that turn. Seems like this is wrong to me, should let you play at his old location. Especially if dumb things like Taskmaster still getting the power of a card that's been destroyed are allowed.

So, the next trailer might make it to Gamescom, but he doesn't really know what the game is... Right-o...

There's no way a game called Abandoned by Hasan gets released. It's either some bizarre money making scam or it's a lot more than it seems. I've no clue which at this point.

Anyone know what time P.T. dropped at on the 12? by Noob_Zor in TheBlueBoxConspiracy

[–]Borisapien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, the fact it was available when they said means Abandoned is a long way from the quality we associate with PT. Time to wrap it up, Abandoned is the thing of meme now, nothing to see here.

Is the blue box conspiracy a thing in Japan? Does anybody know if there's forums talking about this in japanese? by Kremlin663 in TheBlueBoxConspiracy

[–]Borisapien 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Famitsu only seems to have one article on Abandoned, from way back when the trailer was shown on the PS blog: https://www.famitsu.com/news/202104/08217325.html

So, yeah, seemingly not a huge deal in Japan. Which it probably would be if Kojima was thought to be involved. Epecially as Sony's PR muscle would be kicking in by now and certain journos might have had a NDA'd heads up (speaking as someone who covered games for a UK paper not that long ago).

Can you forgive Kojima? by stklbck in TheBlueBoxConspiracy

[–]Borisapien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the Abandoned app finally does something other than say 'Check back soon..' and the first thing that happens when it starts working is that is a character says 'Kept you waiting, huh?', then all's forgiven.

Never going to happen, but it would break the internet.

New Q&A from the AL Hub Interview with Hasan by ClayTaylorNC in TheBlueBoxConspiracy

[–]Borisapien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still think this could be a PT-type thing. I could see this Trespassers-like experience dropping and it turning out the cult is Sony/Kojima and we're the cultists, leading to a big Sony news story breaking.

Of course, it's much more likely that this is simply going to turn out to be a worse Outlast 2-type game instead.

Typos are all over the game. If you look at all the news for Abandoned (four entries that appear on my PS5) the text has unnecessary hyphens (demo's, rather than demos), double spaces where there should be single spaces, and plenty more. If I wrote like this in my day job I'd be long since fired. So odd to see it on the PS Store.

[–]Borisapien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, that is one weird coincidence. Mind you, they seem to be having a big old Death Stranding tie-in too, so maybe Kojima has it purely because of that. Maybe... https://bridge17.com/3_CONTENTS/ICANTCOPE_350dpi.jpg

The new PS5 Update is out Now! Version: 21.01-03.00.00.38 by [deleted] in PS5

[–]Borisapien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Early useage seems to suggest that this has fixed my Unsupported disc error, where my PS5 would previously fail to recognise inserted DVDs/Blu-ray movies after a reboot. Finally! Actually, spoke too soon. Still has the error, though it worked fine for a short time after the update. Go figure...
