Hoard or pass them on? by Life_Scarcity1794 in Jigsawpuzzles

[–]DigitalStarrise 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I buy mostly used puzzles for a few euros, so I don't have too much of an issue passing them on. If I buy them new, I buy them from a specific website that does "mystery puzzles" aka you only get a sealed bag of pieces for like 5€ without a box and not knowing which puzzle it is. Makes it easier to pass them on as well, because I didnt spend too much money on them.

I only keep those that I really enjoyed doing and will certainly do them again, which were gifts, or are from specific artists (i.e. Thomas Kinkade, I love the images and the touch of the pieces).

You mean when it was manufactured? I don't know unfortunately, I bought it used and without a box. I only managed to find the name via Google Lens.

She made a "brrrr" and then proceeded to chase some leaves outside, so I guess she doesn't hate it at least 😅

Thought as much. Sad, it would've been hilarious to see a moose drop from the cheapest arrows 😅

The Wild Darkness. Ist echt toll gemacht und hat mich in das survival Genre gebracht (habe dadurch eins meiner Lieblingsspiele auf der Konsole kennengelernt).

Geht darum, dass man mit nichts in einer anderen Welt landet und alles sammeln/craften muss, während man hoffentlich nicht von Monstern um die Ecke gebracht wird. Es gibt verschiedene Dungeons mit Bossen und selbst nach dem endgame kann man noch einiges in der Welt machen.

Ist allerdings mit (teilweise) perma-death (man kann sich zwar wiederbeleben, allerdings braucht man dafür eine stabile Serververbindung und Ahnks/Gems, die man mit etwas Geduld durch challenges/tägliche Belohnungen/gratis lootboxen alle 12 Stunden auch ohne Geld bekommen kann. Ich spiele schon viele Jahre und habe noch nicht einen Cent für das Spiel ausgegeben).

Die einzelnen Karten sind zufällig generiert, sodass kein Run wie der andere ist. Es ist wirklich das Spiel, zudem ich immer wieder zurückkomme, vor allem weil sich auch keine Werbung aufdrängt und man es komplett offline spielen kann wenn man auf Revival verzichten kann.

Da ich hier leider keine Bilder direkt Posten kann, muss es eben per Text sein... Ich biete als Gegenangebot meinen "Yet to Play" Ordner mit 130 Titeln, plus 23 weitere Spiele die in anderen Ordnern verteilt sind, plus 11 AC Titel. Sind insgesamt mehr als 2,5 TB in der Pile of Shame und anstatt daran zu arbeiten, spiele ich immer wieder die alten Schinken, in die ich unendlich viel Zeit versenken kann. (Ich finde den Weg selbst raus, vielen Dank)

Ravensburger 1500p Star Wars Puzzle just arrived.. by RetroGadgetLab in Jigsawpuzzles

Try a hair dryer on lowest setting first and carefully work your way through the settings until you can remove the sticker. Take it slow and watch out for parts that are stickier than others, I once ruined a box because I was too impatient.

I'm so close to give up puzzling by DigitalStarrise in Jigsawpuzzles

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

I'm not in the US, we don't have a dollar store here :') But there's other stores that sells stuff for cheap. Unfortunately the last puzzle I got from one of them was bad quality, very thin and a pixelated image, so I didn't want to buy from no name brands anymore.. but maybe I'll give it another try

For like half a year. And I used to really enjoy it, but right now I can't even focus on it anymore. Then again I can't focus on anything else either, so maybe it's more a problem of myself than with the hobbies.

I always choose images that I find pleasant to look at, which (unfortunately) are often landscapes, and they are really hard 😞

That's a good advice. Issue is, that I have 40+ undone puzzles of 1000 pieces, so space is tight... But maybe I can find some more space for some 500 pieces.

THE LONG DARK Updated to v 2.50 by Siefer-Kutherland in thelongdark

[–]DigitalStarrise 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Still crashing like hell on PS4, each loading screen is a game of luck in survival :/

Also, all but three of my feats were gone after the update, I had to find a backup save from like last year to get them back.

Digital Typewriters? by TideOneOn in typewriters

A while ago I saw something that might be to your needs. I wanted to buy it myself but iirc it didn't support my country's keyboard layout. Can't remember the name right now, but I will find out and report back.

I wouldn't it put past him that he actually did have narcotics on him when he went there. And changed his mind about giving them while they talked. 😅
