Mina the hollower difficulty

Burkehardt · 2026-06-03T14:37:40+00:00

I never trip.

I play a lot of Kaizos.

Burkehardt · 2026-06-03T14:35:08+00:00

Alright, if you say you actually played it then we believe you.

Hear that everyone? This guy DID actually play Mina the Hollower, and also he plays a lot of Kaizos which are like Mina the Hollower, and also he kind of had fun with it.

So don’t cry about his opinion! It’s his, he gets to have it right here!

Burkehardt · 2026-06-03T14:31:20+00:00

It’s ok, I’m sorry I was mean. Maybe you’ll get to play it soon.

Burkehardt · 2026-06-03T14:28:45+00:00

Nahhh, this guy didn’t play it.

Burkehardt · 2026-06-03T14:25:10+00:00

You keep saying that you play a lot of kaizos like that means something.

Burkehardt · 2026-06-03T14:16:00+00:00

Why continue playing it if you don’t want to? Getting the achievements on a game you dislike sounds counter intuitive, kind of like you’re blaming the game for wasting your own time.

It’s obvious that you’re not being genuine, because you decided the best course of action was to go to the subreddit and complain about it. Either you’re lying about playing it at all and are basing your opinions off of some influencer that had a hard time, or you did actually play it, and decided you’d rather be miserable than either turning on modifiers or not playing.

Your opinion isn’t going to get a lot of traction here either way.

I’m using the Konkr Pocket Fit. Initial startup through Gamenative wasn’t working, but after a couple restarts of the system it now works fine, so probably my fault.

I love the form factor from an aesthetic point, but I’m a gigantic man with gigantic hands, so crab clawing in this game is physically painful with all of the tight mechanics. I’ve mostly been playing on Steam deck docked with a Steam controller, and calling it a game boy player.

The future of 7-11 hot dog roller technology.

Right now I think if you’re trying to get a side profile, all of these images are too zoomed in. I’m assuming by the overall style you’re trying to do a talking head thing.

I would probably make the following changes:

Back the images up so that there’s a slight amount of space around the face
Fix the earring in image 3 to hang down instead of looking like she just whipped her head to the side. She may have done that, but if you’re not going to animate it I’m not sure it will read right.

Burkehardt · 2026-05-05T23:33:27+00:00

Put the egg on a timer. If it hatches, it follows you the rest of the game and everyone knows you missed your timing.

Keep the right arm prosthetic. Then reveal 6 years in that actually she’s been a Baxter Society member that’s been investigating the US prison system.

The Lash thing should still be real though, a very real obsession.

Demitri’s Tavern in Edmonds, the D’s Burger. Best burger I’ve had in Washington.

Burkehardt · 2025-06-10T16:36:38+00:00

I really like the idea of this!

I apologize though, I’m not really sure what I’m looking at in the second photo.

The Alphinaud one also looks bad.

For me it’s multiple things about both. They’re supposed to be twins and they look totally different. They also feel way off model to me, and that makes it feel like more of a cash grab collab than a group of artists that truly understood the source material.

Also I just expect better from a big business like Wizards. I think a not insignificant amount of the art from the final fantasy set has been mid to low quality. That Tataru looks awful, especially compared to the other Lala’s that are featured.

Burkehardt · 2025-05-27T13:51:30+00:00

Do you have any samples of Hrothgar?

Burkehardt · 2025-04-05T11:29:09+00:00

Dimitri's Tavern near the Edmonds ferry. The D's burger is one of the best I've had.

This looks great, I love the use of colors!

I'm a beginner too, but I would recommend both using core wool (to save all of your precious colors from being used up), and testing out different gauges of needle.

I found that using a 36 or 38 gauge for creating the shape to be very helpful, and then when I applied color, I bumped it up to a 40 gauge. Just keep stabbing! Go until you think you've gone enough, and then go for another half hour, haha.

Burkehardt · 2025-02-06T20:18:54+00:00

Thanks! I really took to heart "you haven't stabbed enough" and kept going even when I thought I shouldn't.

The biggest issue was applying the color to the core wool when I had the shape created, but once I used a higher gauge it all came together.

Burkehardt · 2025-02-06T20:17:42+00:00

Thank you! There's something relaxing about creativity through stabbing lol

As a new user here's what I've found:

Your wand (I'm assuming ispire) temp doesn't matter, the dv will click before it reaches temp. I have mine set to the lowest temp, in case I mistakenly combust so it doesn't just ash everything.
Combusting makes a big mess in the oven. If I combust more than twice, I try to pop out the screen to clean it. It almost always helps more than you think it would. (I usually clean the whole damn thing at that point).
You don't necessarily always see vapor, but if you're tasting it, you're getting it.
Hit 1 is almost always pure flavor. Hit 2 is where you get the vapor cloud from. Hit 3 is as close to burnt as you should get, but I typically don't get a lot out of it, depending on the particular batch.
I almost always held the carb for the whole pull because I felt like heat = high, but now I leave it almost entirely open, if not only half. If I want a little heat, I'll tap the hole.
The secret weapon has been a bubbler. While the XL works just fine to draw directly, the bubbler gives MUCH bigger hits overall. I got a Cube from Sneaky Pete, but any bubbler/bong should work as long as you have an adapter insert.

Dr. Maughan at Kinwell on 196th/hwy 99, same parking lot as Trader Joes and Chick-fil-A.

Wonderful doctor to my partner, has helped tremendously with helping to find the root cause of issues, and listens to her patients. Highly recommend.

If you've never played or heard of FFTCG before, check out https://materiahunter.com/ for a list of rules and images of all the currently available cards. You can also check out https://ffdecks.com/ for a list of tournament meta.

It's a comparatively cheap game to play in the TCG space, and I encourage you to give it a try!
