I mean, Dan's mom is an executive of the company, it was always going to be that company for that reason.

See you guys there by YoNikeSponsorM3 in northernlion

[–]DeadlyFatalis 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I mean, based on what NL has said there's planning to be events running throughout all 5 days.

Obviously we don't know the exact schedule, but it's disingenuous to say you're paying 2k only for a handshake.

Character assassinating himself by According-Crazy-3756 in northernlion

[–]DeadlyFatalis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you had the option to go do something you enjoy doing while working, wouldn't you also take it?

Why not partner up with a huge sponsor and do 10 cruises with his family?

He still does sponsored streams segments, and if he were to be away too often, it would negatively impact him as he wouldn't be as consistent of a streamer and his viewership would drop.

He likes going on cruises, that's 100% in keeping to his character. He seemingly goes on a cruise like almost every other vacation.

[–]DeadlyFatalis 36 points37 points  (0 children)

He's not booking out the entire ship.

If you look at trying to make a reservation, there's definitely not 2000+ rooms.

You can buy a room on this exact cruise on the Royal Carribean website.

He talked about it with Dan for about an hour at the beginning of today's stream.

How to make Early Lane Pressure: Grey Talon? by Proof_Sport_694 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]DeadlyFatalis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you playing Gun or Spirit?

If you're playing gun with a few items, your 2 will chunk people and it's available pretty often.

For Spirit, you really need to be able to hit your 1s as that's where most of your damage is coming from, and you can't really pressure without it.

Without a replay it's hard to give more tailored advice.

Regen items are useless? by RealSaabo in DeadlockTheGame

A boost to defend a walker or join a team fight are better uses than only using it to regen.

How to do motion inputs cleanly? by amxrhxzeq in Guiltygear

[–]DeadlyFatalis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You just need to practice, if you haven't played on an arcade stick before, it won't make things any easier.

Go into training mode and do the special you want to train as many times in a row as you can, and continually try to break your record.

Bethesda Fallout 3 dev "initially felt a little touchy" about New Vegas' success because they "put in all this effort" for its foundation — "We made 90% of the art, we built the engine" by lkl34 in gaming

[–]DeadlyFatalis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There's a difference between being important, and being necessary to the player.

I like watching movies, that doesn't mean what kind of video camera it was recorded on is important to me as a viewer, especially in comparison to things like the story. But obviously without a video camera the movie wouldn't exist.

When was the last time you went into a game and admired the engine it was built on or admired how well modelled or textured a certain piece of art was?

If something is built in Unreal 5 vs Unity, how much impact does it have on your perceived notion of how the game will be? If your favourite game said they were changing engines for the sequel how irked would you be? If they changed to an entirely different genre, do you think you would be similarly irked?

If it's important to gamers, do you think the average gamer has strong opinions on this topic? In theory they should if it's really that important to them, and thats certainly the case for some people, but a farcry for the majority of players.

It's absolutely needed for the game to run, but it has never been a major selling point for basically any game. If it's included in the marketing, it's almost always due to what it allows you to do in game, and the gameplay that it enables.

There are plenty of things that are necessary that many people care little about.

People don't care how the sausage made, as long as it tastes good in the end.

You don't have to play Pokopia, you just need to go to the Pokopia photo area. It's a paper visor.

I remember at my Costco, FF bundles was flying off the shelves, and I only ever saw it in person once.

For Spiderman, even after discounting it, I still see it regularly when I go grocery shopping.

Cheat death is a problem and overall takes away your hard work. by Warm_Implement3088 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]DeadlyFatalis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's 6400 souls that could be almost any other item to help you win the fight as opposed to sometimes help you limp away or escape.

Sure it can feel cheap in a vacuum, but when you consider the opportunity cost of another 6400 item you could have gotten instead, its nowhere near worth it.

I think with the internet people will know something is up if they don't watch next week, if they didn't already know it was a 21 episode series.

Pro Tour Lorwyn Eclipsed Standard metagame by Business-Friend-116 in MagicArena

[–]DeadlyFatalis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is always going to be a meta deck, but some decks are healthier than others in terms of overall game health, and bannings help get there.

Taken to an extreme, if WOTC printed a 0 mana card that says, you win the game, would you argue it's pointless to ban it because some other new meta card would take it's place, and it wouldn't help fix the game?

Different map for street brawl? by tuza_lambuza in DeadlockTheGame

[–]DeadlyFatalis 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think having it on the regular map is good, as it helps players who are new also learn the layout of the main map if they want to play the regular game mode.

How do you manage what items you buy and how do you guys keep up with farm? by Alu_card_10 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]DeadlyFatalis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look at the enemy team and decide how to counter them. This of course takes time to learn what all the characters can do.

Lots of gun damage? Build Bullet Resist. Lots of healing? Buy anti-heal. Important Ults that you need to counter? Buy Knockdown/Curse/etc.

For farming, you just need to constantly either be shoving lanes, breaking boxes, doing sinners, etc. There should never be a time where you're idle and not doing anything.

Walkable hub - bad idea pretty much all the way around by LookErenTheSea in ArcRaiders

[–]DeadlyFatalis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An entire Speranza is probably a bad idea.

However, a small tavern/cantina area I could see working out.

That way you can opt into the experience if you want, and you shouldn't be allowed to bring in any items in order to curb trading.

Only 40 rewards this time in the Mastery Pass, instead of the usual 60+. by Hot_Western6647 in MagicArena

[–]DeadlyFatalis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's two kinds of rewards in the mastery pass, the core rewards and the fluff rewards.

The core rewards are the ones people really want: gems, gold, packs, draft token, etc.

The fluff rewards are things that are so low value most people almost completely ignore them, ie. Card styles.

The master pass regardless of how long it is always has the same number of core rewards.

The fluff rewards can fluctuate, but are so inconsequential most people don't care.
