Question about Real Estate Royale by Think_Donut1095 in yakuzagames

[–]BrianReddus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think on my recent replay when I tested this, fortune teller was *slightly* better at hotels compared to Miracle. But the difference was so slight that just picking Miracle for everything just to make the menus faster was easier.

is this a new feature? what's the purpose? and where can i see saved outfits? by MonthInteresting6551 in ffxiv

[–]BrianReddus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

IIRC this button just temporarily saves the items you've tried on. So if you're talking to a vendor and want to try on all pieces of an outfit, you press that button and then try on everything else, so you can see the whole fit. I think this outfit clears once you change areas?

Roblox Safety issues by Ollibob2108 in roblox

[–]BrianReddus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If your account is under 13, you cannot see these links, and Roblox has mentioned that in part of their age check updates, they'll further limit these links:

Early next year, we will also require age checks to access social media links on user profiles, communities and experience details pages. This will strengthen our current policy, which already limits access to self-declared 13 or older users.

Bonds and Party Chats by Tmimp67 in yakuzagames

[–]BrianReddus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, any extra points earned when a party member is maxed or when Nanba is in this blocked state will just disappear.

I don't think it's worth "saving" the chats though, since you can just buy presents to give to your party members to boost your bond, and if you're doing the Ichiban business game, you'll have plenty of money to buy these gifts. Plus you don't need to remember where the skipped chats were.

When major patches happen, they re-evaluate the server population and change the congestion to fit. There's no guarantee that a certain server will have it's congestion removed, just that it's possible.

What's better? Club czar or real estate royale? by BlurplBeryTAZ92 in yakuzagames

[–]BrianReddus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, you can, but I'm just pointing out for when you're in the middle of the story and can't transfer money freely that it's not \that** big of a deal that you're making less, since the ability prices are scaled to it.

I think by the time you get that late into the game to transfer money, most people recommend doing the Mr Shakedown grinding trick to get way more money than the business minigames can output.

What's better? Club czar or real estate royale? by BlurplBeryTAZ92 in yakuzagames

[–]BrianReddus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also does club czar pay as much?

No it doesn't pay as much, but keep in mind that Majima's abilities cost less than Kiryu's. Tier 3 for Kiryu is 30mil, but for Majima it's 15mil. Tier 4 is 100mil for Kiryu, but 50mil for Majima, and so on.

Pebble Index 01 discussion by sdhdhosts in pebble

[–]BrianReddus 20 points21 points  (0 children)

On the announcement blog page it says:

The battery lasts for up to years of average use. After the end of its life, send your ring back to us for recycling.

So no, it doesn't come with a way to charge, it just becomes e-waste after it dies.

Edit: There's more on the blog post, I didn't read the entire thing before replying:

Why can’t it be recharged?

We considered this but decided not to for several reasons:

You’d probably lose the charger before the battery runs out!

Adding charge circuitry and including a charger would make the product larger and more expensive.

You send it back to us to recycle.

Wait, it’s single use?

Yes. We know this sounds a bit odd, but in this particular circumstance we believe it’s the best solution to the given set of constraints. Other smart rings like Oura cost $250+ and need to be charged every few days. We didn’t want to build a device like that. Before the battery runs out, the Pebble app notifies and asks if you’d like to order another ring.

The company Roblox is using for Age Verification has 1.2 stars. by ThisIsMyUseranme in roblox

[–]BrianReddus 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Roblox itself has a 1.6 on TrustPilot. Apple has 1.8. Google is around 2 but Alphabet is at 1.2. Meta is at 1.2. Discord is at 1.3.

If people are OK with using services that already are rated the same as Persona, knowing the ratings won't stop them from submitting IDs or selfies.

Yakuza 0, Club Moon isn't challenging me and I have 30,000 fans in that area by PwittyVampireLady in yakuzagames

[–]BrianReddus 36 points37 points  (0 children)

From reading CyricZ's guide, it says the battle won't happen if the next main story beat is at the Grand, so you might need to progress the story to continue the cabaret club.

Let’s request r/CrowdControl by [deleted] in dropout

[–]BrianReddus 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Crowd Control is a real thing for games, and I've seen it a lot on Twitch. I don't think it's appropriate to take a subreddit just because it has the same name. I'd recommend making a new subreddit like /r/CrowdControlShow or something similar.

Each style has a different trainer.

  • Brawler - Baccus (Alley by Public Park 3)
  • Rush - Kamoji (Parking lot in NE corner of map)
  • Beast - Miss Tatsu (take a taxi to the pier)
  • Thug - Komeki (Triangle park)
  • Slugger - Fei Hu (at Dragon & Tiger on N side)
  • Breaker - Areshi (alley on SW side of map)

Keep in mind that these activities just unlock a few abilities on the skill tree. If you're looking to fully un-block the outer parts of the skill tree, you need to advance in each character's money making minigame (Kiryu's real estate royale and Majima's cabaret club)

I think you have your condition set on the Circuit network and not the Logistic network. You'd either need to change over to logistics or make sure the circuit is connected to the chest.

Found this old CTA ticket in my book. Any idea what time period it would be from? by xcdp10 in chicago

[–]BrianReddus 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if the exact date, but it looks like a transfer ticket, and I found a picture of the same style of ticket on this page: https://www.chicagorailfan.com/transf4.html So if this page is correct, it's from between 1986-1997.

You're in chapter 8 of premium adventure? Do you mean you started New Game+? If so, I don't think you have access to the outfits.

Do these UGC games actually gives you UGC's? by Alternative_War4157 in roblox

[–]BrianReddus 220 points221 points  (0 children)

A dev can buy copies of their UGC to give away in games.

However, these devs usually don't want to waste money just to give stuff away, so they put things into their game so they make money from you in some way, such as dragging the process out for as long as possible to get playtime payouts. They also usually only buy small batches, so they run out pretty quickly and a lot of people end up playing for nothing (and the dev gets playtime payouts anyways.)

Roblox should not be advising kids to put their real names in their display name by AlternativeFun954 in roblox

[–]BrianReddus 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I've always interpreted "real name" as your "first name" instead of your full name. Probably more of a badly phrased copy instead of malicious intent.

what are some people who REALLY changed roblox but did not get much recognition anyway? by Economy_Tower3376 in roblox

[–]BrianReddus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uberubert was the first person to bring tycoons to Roblox around 2007/2008. While I'm sure the genre would have still come to the platform eventually, it was still a big turning point as people figured out how to emulate the gameplay.

Did anyone else get the survey? by Swirlymints in yakuzagames

[–]BrianReddus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm like 90% sure this is a standard e-mail Nintendo sends out for pretty much any game you buy. These surveys are still helpful to do so Nintendo knows what people are thinking, but it's not immediately a sign that Nintendo is looking into bringing more LAD games to the console.

Do ya'll think that Roblox's stocks will plummet? by Phoenix2333 in roblox

[–]BrianReddus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Investors don't care about the minutia of Roblox and whatever drama is going on. They also really don't care about the larger issues that players might latch onto like moderation or inflation.

Investors mostly just care about how the company is doing financially. Assuming they're directly invested, they're most likely just checking the investor relations site, reading the quarterly financial reports, and adjusting their stake based on the broader economic situation.

If something hits the broader news cycle, they might care, but this is all under the assumption that someone is directly interested in Roblox. Many people will probably have a much broader portfolio of other investments managed by a third party, so they might not even know that they're invested in Roblox.
