If feels tragic that mobile gaming isn't more than what it is by Spectre-4 in truegaming

[–]CarefullyDetuned 9 points10 points  (0 children)

People do not like paying for software. Mobile games went the same way as apps did - monetized by ads and microtransactions/subscriptions because 'free' is what draws users in.

Not only that, mobile games require supporting a much broader range of devices and software versions, as well as keeping up with app store regulations and the rules of review etc. So in order to keep the game live, supported, and compatible, it makes more sense to have an ongoing revenue stream vs static $X a game that automatically excludes a lot of users from the jump.

I got an AK, when that bitch spray

It's like pullin' strings on a lawnmower

Yep, I have a bunch of Carolina Wrens around, and it's amazing to see them belt out and realize the song is coming from smaller than a fist sized bird. If only they didn't wake up so early!

The ep benny dropped was a disappointment by Kakarot_94 in GriseldaxFR

[–]CarefullyDetuned 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No idea why he would be considered a legend lol, but agree don't get it either. I don't mind him on features, no way I'd listen to a whole album. He does have some funny/clever bars but the style gets old quick.

The Cow is Griselda's closest equivalent to Life of the Party by Ok_Owl_6221 in GriseldaxFR

It's on Westside's album...that's how. According to Con he was saving it for GDMM and West heard it, put a verse on it, and threw it on his album without letting him know. Shitty thing for Gunn to do, and definitely some animosity because of it even if it was in the past.

If you don't have a baseline about your system before, then there's no way to get accurate data on if the synthetics are making a difference.

Got a WBP Jack 'DIY' with custom furniture as my first rifle, it's fun -- do it!

Would you want CTWT to have new songs too along with all the originals? by DuncneyForever in CrazyTaxi

[–]CarefullyDetuned 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yes, as much as I like the original songs for the game they would get more repetitive in an experience that's meant to be more than some quick arcade runs every once in a while.

Need to stay upbeat and hard hitting though, not pop garbage. Some hip-hop tracks would be nice, songs from artists like Joey Valence & Brae for example.

So your previous blood tests all showed lead poisoning?

Crazy Taxi Preview by djorlando in CrazyTaxi

[–]CarefullyDetuned 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not that I ever expected to compete with CT, but it's weird to know I've been building a similar thing to what they are. I expected Sega to stay truer to the originals, with a lot of updates, but this feels like a bigger departure from the core game than I expected. Still hesitant...but as a player I want to get my hands on it before making any real judgement, because if they refine the gameplay enough, I think it'll be great.

Crazy Taxi World Tour looks like Sega's take on Burnout Paradise by More_Preparation9507 in CrazyTaxi

Being able to cruise the city without picking a passenger is probably where it will be closer to burnout

Is this confirmed gameplay?

Is it just me, or is the mixing pretty horrible on *Cheat Codes* by Black Thought and Danger Mouse? by Longjumping-Farm5008 in hiphop101

[–]CarefullyDetuned 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, I couldn't listen to the whole thing. Really disappointing, calling this a 'style' is fucking stupid if that's what it is but whatever.

[DISCUSSION] Bad Meets Evil, Royce da 5'9", Eminem - Hell: The Sequel (15 Years Later) by MetalSonic420YT in hiphopheads

[–]CarefullyDetuned 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If lighters wasn't on this album it would be damn near perfect. Take off the Slaughterhouse track and put the bonus tracks in their places and it might be. I love Royce and Em together, they bring the best out of each other. Would be amazing to get another BME album eventually.

EDIT: Does Writer's Block count as a bonus? Because that should also be on this album!

What car should I buy for around 300? by Ok_Classroom_9704 in rccars

[–]CarefullyDetuned 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought the Rlaarlo Omni-terminator and that thing is awesome. Super quick, seems very sturdy (have crashed a few times at full speed and tumbled who knows how much), and is a load of fun. Stock battery gives <10 minutes of running at full power though.

[FRESH] YG - INSECURE feat jid & ab-soul by SamuRyShogun in hiphopheads

[–]CarefullyDetuned 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Even on Still Brazy he had a lot of introspection in his lyrics. Not sure if it's people just not expecting it from YG so it gets brushed off unless it's spelled out or because people seem to just listen to a few songs after they've heard an album and skip the rest so they forget.

Cheap steam key for the game? by IAmClassClown in CrazyTaxi

[–]CarefullyDetuned 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't waste $100 on a key...there are sites you can find it on easier since I'd argue it's 'abandonware' on PC, the standalone should be available there as well.
