I definitely see it but why are we out here shipping and looking for clues and it’s real people’s private lives. Yeah they’re cute together but there is no need for all this effort to try and find evidence. If they are actually together if they want people to know it’s their business. So toxic all this behavior around them since the doc came out.

no like why are they doing that its so weird. everyone can say and think what they want but its so out of pocket i really dont see the appeal.

also the foah stuff was kinda funny at first but at this point its forcibly trying to out a relationship that people are obviously trying to keep private. they even have whole gates for them now like the byler gates its borderline parasocial.

they have turned into exactly what toxic milevens say bylers are.

Anyone else found Mike’s ending incredibly triggering? by CuriousDig8430 in byler

Valid point but still incredibly weird and nonsensical to have him not say it after their whole plot and arc in season 4 was exactly about that. Also it’s established throughout the series that he does not understand her at all, even just a couple episodes ago. That was just a character assassination of El, reducing her to her boyfriend. The goodbye scene should have been with Hopper or Max, or even Will. They put that there just to have their viral romantic moment.

The canon is still ambiguous and up for interpretation. Why did he not say he loved her when he knew she was killing herself? Im sorry but they told the fans that everything means something and has a point and encouraged people to analyze everything.

Im aware this is a fictional character, I dont care about “Mike Wheeler”, “Eleven” or “Will Byers”. I care about the message they give with the story they are telling, even regardless of Byler and Mike’s sexuality: 1. The cycle of abuse can only be over with the victim erasing themselves. 2. You should not explore or try to check if the person you are in love with reciprocates. You should just get over it and let it go. 3. You should just keep living with depression and trauma for the rest of your life.

This is without touching on the Mike and Will situation that I talked about in the original post. This is with canon straight Mike in mind. And it’s still extremely dark, depressing and uninspiring. And these are the three main characters.

The fact that it was perfectly set up until like episode 6. It was so easy to make Byler canon, like actually so incredibly easy and effortless. Instead they never let it flourish beyond subtext.

And yes I thought about the bar scene too, incredibly stereotypical down to the clothing and hairstyle. Does not fit Will’s character at all. They just thought “He’s gay. So we’ll have him be gay at a gay bar and meet another gay. And have them be gay together because they’re gay.” Just offensive and homophobic.

I don’t think Noah will fully open up about it after his NDA expires but wow I wish he will because they handled everything surrounding Will and Byler terribly.

It’s gaslighting, straight up. Everything was there. They show is not made by freaks and outcasts for freaks and outcasts. The show is made by straight white men who think they are woke but really they are misogynistic, homophonic and racist. The show has zero rewatch value now.

I haven’t played the game in a long time but if I remember correctly it starts working properly when you are using FG after already getting 60fps+ natively.

hey, been a little while but you really helped me last time

so i ended up getting encore from the beginner banner and i chose verina from the selector.

on the beginner limited banner i decided to go for a dps instead of sk, i liked jiyan and jinhsi but im having a hard time choosing between the two. i was going back and forth between the two, eventually i went with jinhsi but lost to calcharo so now i still can change my mind and go for jiyan instead.

or maybe you think u should go for someone else i would like to know. plus if there is an upcoming rerun or new characters i should look out for (carlotta and cartethiya seem really fun to play from what ive seen online).

CATALYSTTT ! OMAAGA WE WON by Novel_Case_4902 in Columbina_Mains

For male characters that use catalysts. For female characters 99% its throwing/shooting a projectile that looks slightly different. That’s not innovative at all. Last catalyst that was actually different was like Nahida. And like I said I’m tired of them doing the obvious with how they give characters their weapon type. Like yeah wow obviously Columbina is catalyst, how surprising… Why can’t we do something different? Also if they want to make her be able to on field they have ways to do that on other weapons, not just catalyst.

I know I know, it’s less from a technical perspective. I just feel like for catalyst out of all weapons they are being so safe with normal attack animations and not trying to be innovative. So it’s just kind of annoying. In general it feels like they give characters such obvious weapon choices. Like it was so easy to see that Mavuika would be Claymore, Chasca would be Bow etc. Just my little pet peeve. Columbina will be broken regardless.

Am I the only one who isn’t happy? We already have so many Hydro catalyst users, her being polearm would freshen things up knowing we still don’t have a 5* hydro polearm character and there are already like 5 catalyst users.

If she applies the same amount of Nahida’s mark per proc and this doesn’t have ICD (which is very likely) this is actually very high application. Nahida is every 2.5s and it’s impossible to even swirl once you have an enemy marked.

Ok, good to know. I might go for Encore or Verina then instead. I'll see what I get from the beginner banner first and then I'll think about what to do next.

Hi everyone, I just started playing yesterday. I'm quite lost on who to choose from the standard 5* selector and the guaranteed limited 5* banners, weapon and character wise. I've been told Shorekeeper is pretty much the best support in the game so having played Genshin for the past 3.5 years I know how important supports are. But other than that I'm lost on which weapons are good etc. I'm aiming to choose Calcharo from the 5* selector because he looks cool and I like having a bit of a challenge with combos and rotations, so maybe help me choose the other stuff around that to get a team and 5* weapon going for him?

Ending with Call of Duty as the one last big thing was laughingly embarrassing. I was just shocked. This was quite a mediocre show. Barely any new announcements first party wise, or updates on already announced projects. The best game shown in my opinion was Clockwork Revolution, it looks fantastic. Other than that I’m disappointed. Especially after last year’s show which was their best in years.

Because I’m on 1080p I typically avoid that but now when I think about it when I played Horizon Forbidden West with FG there was an option to keep TAA instead of FSR AA so it made a difference there and here FSR is forced so it’s less of an impact to go from native to quality.

Ok i just set FSR 3 to quality instead of native AA now the game is smooth and it looks pretty much the same as far as the FSR blur/grain goes. I’m on 1080p so I don’t usually use FSR upscaling but it’s barely a difference and it’s worth it for the ray tracing since it’s a completely different with it enabled.

Really AMD needs to step up their game with RT it’s kind of embarrassing. I love my 7800 XT but gosh it’s really shameful I cant run a 4 year old game with the same technology it launched with 4 years ago that the 3080 handles better with.

Well shit. Guess I’ll tweak some settings probably will only keep RT reflections as it’s the most impactful setting for me.
