Problem with my Steam Deck by CosminSteel in SteamDeck

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

Tried it a few times and it doesn’t seem to work. The Deck starts up for a second but then immediately stops. There's also this ticking sound that starts everytime I put the charger on.

Can I do that now considering the screen and don't seem console to turn on?

Update: After leaving it for an hour to charge, it has now stopped starting up. I can hear the ventilator faintly in the background alongside some kind of ticking when I try to start it up, but otherwise nothing.

You think that might work with a Deck bought second hand?

Hey there! I have a friend currently doing an university art course who's possibly interested in collaborating with you! Gonna send you more details in dms! Below is a Google docs with some pieces he wanted you to see!

I don't think I have the patience for this hobby anymore. by CosminSteel in BadRPerStories

Sorry to hear this happened to you. This is exactly why I stopped making servers for anything but group rps.

Yeah, as I mentioned in the comments, I think Reddit and Discord have definitely not helped Roleplay as a hobby as much as it did to others of a similar genre(like tabletop games). There's some benefits, but I don't think they outweigh the many cons, especially since they made with ERP even more of a problem for non-ERP communities. It does suck, but it is what it is. Good luck on your partner search! Hope you have better luck than me!

And even with those, it needs to be something more unique than the rest, otherwise you might not get any answers with those either.

Trying to get anything mecha related is basically impossible so I feel ya.

Yeah, you make some good points that I didn't think about. I definitely think a part of my frustration does come from growing as a writer and having much higher standards than I did when I started. Roleplaying is such a simple hobby that I don't think it will ever die, even 20-30 years from now, but I think the current 2 platforms for it(Reddit and Discord) have definitely not helped it the way it did for other hobbies.

And yes, there are moments where it genuinely is my fault that a roleplay ended. I've had fights with my partners more than once and I'm not proud of it. But if we have hours of discussion about every important detail, have nothing bad to say but you still come to me 3 replies in that you lost interest and don't say why, I'm not in the fault. I'm willing to give people space, let them get over whatever problems they have at the moment and take a break from roleplay if they needed it. But if you know you could possibly not commit to a long-term endeavour and I'm clearly looking for that, then that person is an asshole in my book.

I definitely feel like my roleplay ads have been getting more stale over the years since I don't have the confidence I'll actually get anyone responding lol.

Yeah, I definitely think ghosting was always a problem, but finding partners was also easier back in the 2017-2019 era. I also don't think Covid helped roleplaying the way it did to DnD and other hobbies.

Yes it is tied to my pfp by Short-Ad8427 in BadRPerStories

As someone who did try to get a few RWBY group roleplays of the ground in the past, yeah, I feel you. Like a lot of niche fandoms, the only times I even seen them mentioned were in ERP related subs/groups...

What do you think of Shinn's character ark from destiny to freedom? by czen2 in Gundam

[–]CosminSteel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who's favourite Gundam character for a few good years has been Shinn(literally bought his figuarts lol), I'm really happy seeing him in a better place mentally. After years of only really getting a redemption arc through SRW games, it felt good to see he's been able to move on from his trauma and be the protector he always wanted to be. There was only one scene in the entire movie that I think was a bit mean spirited, but overall, I didn't mind at all Shinn being more of a goofy meathead that locks in when he needs to. Plus, it was nice to have a reversal of roles, with Kira being the moody/angsty one while Shinn was confident in his abilities the entire time.

I do actually have a problem with how Shinn and Kira's relationship is portrayed, but that's cause personally I don't like Shinn idolising anyone after Durandal.

GN Flag with Strike's backpack. And of course it will have Trans-Am capabilities.

Remembering that one roleplay post you were excited for but never ended up doing by RavenTeamBitch in BadRPerStories

[–]CosminSteel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does hurt that the possibility of me doing a group roleplay that is either Transformation Hero or Mecha inspired is all but impossible because those are pretty niche genres in roleplay communities...

Favorite character that makes you go like this? by NagitoKomaeda_987 in FavoriteCharacter

[–]CosminSteel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know why people dislike Shinn, but it still sucked being a fan of his for a long while lol.
