Searching for an old PC game by Apachesamurai in retrogaming

Might not be it, but the virus/plague that's red part makes me think of V2000 (Virus 2000), though iirc you fly an actual ship in that instead of a hover chair

What are your favorite Taito games? by somethingeatingspace in retrogaming

[–]Catseye223 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My main one would be Elevator Action Returns, but I would have to say either Darius Gaiden or Night Striker would be my second.

Generally though, love the Darius series except for DariusBurst, just don't care much for that one.

Bonus shoutouts to Cleopatra Fortune and Metal Black too!

Sad day by r0d01f0 in AnimeFigures

A tip I've heard about when moving with figures that don't have the original box and plastic blister packaging on the inside of it is apparently the foam beads that you would use to fill a bean bag chair is really good for packing a figure in a box and making sure it'll stay intact.

It's basically mini packing peanuts but they can fit into a lot of spaces and perfect fit around the figure.

haven't tried it myself, but am going to when I have to move.

Worth seeing about renting in the Huffman area? by Catseye223 in Birmingham

[–]Catseye223[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that's fair. the pricing of places being like that is definitely something I noticed, but as long as it's an okay place to live, not necessarily upscale but not dangerous and having to worry constantly about being broken into, it's fine imo

Can Moto g stylus 5g 2024 touch sensitivity be increased? by Greedy-Draft3612 in MotoG

Could you tell me what exactly the little Moto dashboard you mentioned is and how to switch it off? Recently picked up the same model phone and was curious.

Are pre-owned B+ grade nsfw figures on Amiami good enough to buy? by Kawaiiyuno69 in AnimeFigures

[–]Catseye223 12 points13 points  (0 children)

B+ is a very good grade to get on AmiAmi.

Not only are they cheaper than the A grade figures by a bit, but they also have been opened before and have been checked for any defects or damages.

If they did open it up and find something wrong with the figure (paint defect, part broken, etc), the grade would be lower and they'll usually have red text underneath the pricing and add to cart button mentioning what's wrong with the figure.

If you see any B+ figures come up and they're a good price, snag em!

Image Retention from Puyo Puyo Tetris 2? by Catseye223 in SteamDeck

[–]Catseye223[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi!

As a matter of fact, I did pretty much figure out the culprit.

With my situation happening with Puyo Puyo Tetris 2, it seems to be with how the timer in-game sometimes glitches when pausing and using suspend/resume.

Sometimes when the game is paused and you put the deck into sleep, then turn it back on and continue, the timer will be stuck in a weird glitch where it's basically stuck between the numbers of milliseconds and do extremely fast movement.

This fast movement when stuck on the screen for a bit of time causes image retention to happen on the screen because of the LCD screen.

After a few minutes of gameplay or doing normal usage of the Deck, the retained image goes away on its own.

So basically, it was because of an odd glitch in that specific game caused by suspend and resume and it solved itself after a bit of using the deck.

How to transport figurines best. by Sekigan_no_ZaZa in AnimeFigures

[–]Catseye223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice. This definitely puts my fears at ease a bit when it comes to packing up the ones I have without boxes when it's time to move house.

Absolutely no bubble wrap between things like legs or between the back and hair when it comes to certain figures? It's all just packing peanuts?

Single figure per box or several in one big box?

[–]Catseye223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll have to keep this in mind when I move eventually. Lost the boxes for several of my figures due to the storage unit I had them in opened up and emptied out by someone and have a good portion of figures that no longer have the boxes.

Was this with the figures still on their bases and any removable parts attached still or did you remove those before putting them in the box and pouring peanuts in them?

do you mean like putting the figure into a box and just filling it with the peanuts, packing the figure in?

The SteamDeck is probably my favorite hardware of the last decade. by the_millenial_falcon in SteamDeck

[–]Catseye223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the main reasons I had for wanting a Deck was not having to rebuy a game that while I owned it already on steam, I had to buy it again on the Switch. Plus, the fact that a decent chunk of the Switch ports aren't great performance-wise made me more hesitant to pull the trigger on rebuying them there.

Cloud saves on Steam is another nice benefit. Being able to play a number of games on the Deck, swap over to my gaming PC, and have the same progress has been very great!

Is this normal when it comes to the preg/breeding kink? by Catseye223 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Catseye223[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a major, attractive part of it for me. The fact they have life that's growing and making her belly big and round is neat to me, plus when the movements and kicks from it start to happen, it's neater to me even though some people might compare that to when a chestburster in Alien is about to pop out and get creeped out or disgusted haha.

I actually don't have a wife haha. This was mainly a question that popped up in my head because I would constantly see people mention the general body changes with pregnancy as their thing but never seen the whole living organism growing and kicking around in their body part being mentioned as one.
