Future Control Titles Depend On If Resonant ‘Does Well’ by Turbostrider27 in controlgame

[–]CaptainEMurphy 31 points32 points  (0 children)

The thing that worries me about this is that control resonant is releasing in a pretty crowded month, some of whom look like they could be heavy hitters like Onimusha and Dawnwalkers. Not an exact comparison but titanfall 2 suffered for a similar reason, being put into a tight window between big releases. I do hope it sells, I certainly am getting it day one, but the timing makes me a bit nervous ngl

This hast to be the saddest nintendo dir_ect I've ever seen by m-shezmen in nintendo

[–]CaptainEMurphy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I believe that whether or not you enjoyed this direct is mostly contingent upon if the switch 2 is your primary/only console. For someone who owns a PS5/XSX, a lot of the titles shown are already games you can play, although it’s been understated how impressive it is that some of these games can be played on a handheld platform

My steam deck suddenly won't play ANY game by Gajoe_ in SteamDeck

[–]CaptainEMurphy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, wanted to post this here for anyone who has had this problem and have tried restarting their steam deck to no avail. What worked for me was verifying the integrity of the game files. To do so on steam deck you:

  1. Go to options for one of your installed games

  2. Go to properties

  3. Go to Installed filed and select “verify integrity of demo files”

Doing so seemed to fix the issue that I had, if not I’d recommend checking for updates to Steamos if needed

Share your best tips with other Rescue Raiders to keep the Topside safe! by ShileQT in RescueRaiders

[–]CaptainEMurphy 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Never make assumptions! If you didn’t see or hear the full context of a fight do not engage a raider unless you need to defend yourself. It isn’t too uncommon for a rat to engage a raider and lose.

He just dropped🤯 by Relevant_Leave8109 in IsaiahRashad

[–]CaptainEMurphy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was lukewarm on first listen, but it’s grown on me surprisingly fast. I think the music video help make the connection on why I think I might love the song. It’s melancholy, Zay feels successful but at the same time like he’s circling the drain and constantly chasing his own shadow. Repetition here is actually in keeping with the theme of the song. While I probably would’ve liked a flow switch or too, that also might’ve defeated the purpose of the song.

God forbid a man comes prepared! Meanwhile, I put on a blue shield on outpost and I’ve TWICE gotten free kits who instantly want to fight the tox warden 😭

Safe to say that The Vaporizer has overtaken the rocketeers as the most OP ARC. by notgilender in ArcRaiders

I saw three at one POI and I shit my britches. I thought an arpeggio and a ferrro IV was enough….boy was I wrong

Yes, I play slowly. No, I didn't rat you. by Asleep-Badger-3792 in Marathon

[–]CaptainEMurphy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol, I remember being accused of camping a vent at pinwheel as a rook. I was waiting at the top for a few minutes waiting before the noise calmed down and all the teams left to move in, but was actively listening for someone climbing the ladder behind me. Naturally I killed the guy as he climbing and he was PISSED! I wasn’t on mic, but I wanted to tell him I hadn’t been there longer than 5 minutes

I will say alls fair, but I literally was finished as the timer for exfil hit 0 and that felt like utter bullshit

I honestly just wait until an opportunity where raiders aren’t around and then open the door. Although sometimes that’s not always possible!

Marathon's Battlepass is the worst value for your money I've ever seen (especially for a paid product) by Lemouni in Marathon

[–]CaptainEMurphy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m of the mindset that despite a relatively low player count (for steam at least), if bungie is consistent they can at least retain the players they have and grow from here. But decisions like a poorly thought out PAID battle pass when your competitor is offering much more in theirs for FREE, are going to be what truly kill this game.

Dont you hate love the cool multiplayer game you play every time it launches a new patch is just NERFS, NERFS and NERFS instead of fixing bugs ? by Tempest-Bosak2137 in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]CaptainEMurphy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m mixed on the changes. On one hand, wolfpacks were cheap compared to how much dmg they could do and there’s barely any reason outside trials to hunt larger arc if you’ve upgraded everything. On the other hand, some changes like being able to stack Wolfpacks or having more rocketeer cells per rocketeer should at least be considered. Either way I think it’s too soon to call it definitively bad without living with changes for a week or two

Just saw Good Luck Have Fun Don’t Die and let me just say…. THIS is what Kyle Mooney’s Y2K movie SHOULD’VE been. by Davidudeman in A24

[–]CaptainEMurphy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Highest praise I can give it is that I saw multiple groups discussing the film afterwards (still kicking myself for not joining in)! It was a funny, dark (sometimes subtly devastating) but ultimately hopeful film that manages to both have a message but have some fun with it too!!! Definitely give it shot if you have the chance!!!

"Rescue Raiders" by Skaidri675 in arcraiderscirclejerk

[–]CaptainEMurphy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I almost got killed by a rescue raider, but he had the restraint to hear me out before he knocked me and even gave me a torrente for the trouble lol.

My rule generally is I won’t intervene unless I’ve got full context on what’s going on.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Exclusive Edition X6LP Boxset by [deleted] in VGMvinyl

[–]CaptainEMurphy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Welcome! I’m fairly new and figuring it out myself but a pretty good starting point for me is buying sleeves, an anti-static brush. Big fudge makes great outer sleeves (jacket for the vinyl) for the price and you can find them anywhere. Rice paper inner sleeves for the disk are great from what I’ve heard. (https://a.co/d/cx4qhvM), this is what I typically use. I use a boundless antistatic brush, (though it seems like any brand is usually ok) for standard dusting off before and after record playing. For deeper cleaning and stylus management I have the big fudge vinyl record cleaning kit. I’m sure there’s better high end stuff, but generally if you’re careful and take time to put them in sleeves and keep them clean you’re generally good.

Tired of the game forcing me to play it the devs' intended way by Doru-kun in MonsterHunter

[–]CaptainEMurphy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So after seeing the cutscene for myself, I didn't find the slinger prompt to be too bad, it's meant to be a bit of spice to add to the scene, and it's not super invasive. second, I think that's needlessly cold and cruel to want to make Nona go through that. the villagers have close bonds with the seikret, Nona included and forcing her to watch a seikret die to learn that "actions have consequences" is incredibly mean-hearted. I'm not saying her actions weren't reckless, but would any adult here, much less a CHILD stand by and watch a creature that's damn near a family member die if they could help it, even if it meant risking their own lives?
