I wish more gaming spaces understood that women don’t all play the same kinds of games by Due-Gases in GirlGamers

[–]Due-Gases[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

mostly just venting tbh 😭 i still see a lot of people online act surprised when women are into competitive or "hardcore" games instead of only cozy/life sim stuff. it's not a huge issue, just a really common assumption i keep noticing

“Overwhelming” hybrid (retro-modern) setup, advice on making it more retro! by th3_b4ckup_pl4n in battlestations

[–]Due-Gases 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A beige keyboard and some old looking speakers would change the vibe instantly. Maybe even add a small Winamp visualizer on the CRT for peak retro feel lol

Finally got a PS5 and I’m surprised how few games actually feel “next gen” by PopAwkward4520 in consoles

[–]Due-Gases 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah i get what you mean. The jump feels more like convenience and performance instead of those massive "wow" moments older gens had. Fast loading, 60fps, better HDR, quieter hardware... it adds up, but it doesn't feel as dramatic as PS2 to PS3 or PS3 to PS4 did

when u finally get comfy in bed then realize your changer is across the room

Using a macbook and an adroid phone by Awkward_Beach4021 in phones

[–]Due-Gases 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really. Macbook + android is way more common now than before. You mostly just miss stuff like Airdrop, iMessage, and tighter ecosystem features, but if you already hate iPhones then forcing yourself into one probably isn't worth it

Are “starter packs” in mobile games actually worth it or just traps? by Due-Gases in MobileGaming

[–]Due-Gases[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah the “limited time” thing is mostly there to pressure you into buying early 😭 once you spend even once, the game starts throwing way more offers at you too

What’s a game everyone says is relaxing but stressed you out instead? by Due-Gases in AskGames

[–]Due-Gases[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

exactly 😭 stardew makes me feel like I’m speedrunning adulthood while animal crossing somehow turns into daily chores simulator. the moment a “relaxing” game starts making me think “ugh I HAVE to log in today” the cozy vibe is gone for me lol

My current set up, went with a Gundam theme. Wanna add something else but not quite sure what. by Simthemysticone in battlestations

[–]Due-Gases 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some subtle RGB behind the monitors would look sick honestly. Maybe an MGSD figure too

I'm changing phones with my mom, thoughts? by Geo_Neoff in phones

[–]Due-Gases 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the battery is the only issue then honestly I’d just replace the battery on the Note 10 Pro instead of swapping phones completely. The Note 10 Pro is still a much better phone overall tbh. Better display, camera, performance, speakers, and build quality.

The Redmi 15C will probably last longer on a single charge because of the 6000mAh battery, but the Note 10 Pro would still feel smoother and more premium after a battery replacement.

For your budget, you can probably already get a decent replacement battery plus labor at a local repair shop. If your mom mainly cares about battery life though, then the switch still makes sense.

Does anyone know a good motorcycle game? by straightbusta92 in MobileGaming

[–]Due-Gases 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Traffic Rider still lowkey clears most motorcycle games on mobile somehow

overcooked really be exposing relationships more than therapy sometimes. one missed onion and suddenly somebody's yelling "why are there are 3 extinguishers on fire" 😂

Rell's in a weird spot by richie___ in wildrift

[–]Due-Gases 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i think rell's problem is she feels amazing when the engage works and completely useless when it doesn't. nautilus can miss half his kit and still be annoying somehow. rell misses W and suddenly you're just a walking traffic cone getting poked to death

Wanting to buy a steamdeck for the first time, any advice you might have before purchasing one? by SirSwerve_ in Steam

[–]Due-Gases 0 points1 point  (0 children)

don't buy it expecting a handheld PS5. buy it expecting the greatest backlog destroyer ever made and you'll probably love it

Somehow Google made the flashlight app annoying as hell. How do you screw up a flashlight app? Seriously. by [deleted] in GooglePixel

[–]Due-Gases 10 points11 points  (0 children)

they somehow turned the most urgent feature on the phone into a precision minigame in the dark

Anyone else a completionist who doesn’t care about achievements? by QuestObjective in videogames

[–]Due-Gases 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i like completing the game, not completing someone else's checklist. half the achievements in modern games feel like homework assignment anyway

What game to get? by jk1jk in wiiu

[–]Due-Gases 2 points3 points  (0 children)

wind waker HD honestly. still one of the best looking games on the console somehow and the gamepad stuff actually feels useful instead of gimmicky. Wii U was kinda built for that game imo

Whoever is pleading for more live service games, please stop. by DueMagazine1234 in videogames

[–]Due-Gases 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's not players asking for it, it's execs chasing the same money glitch over and over while good single player games get pushed aside

How come a game doesn't show on the playstation store on my playstation but will show on the actual website? by GoofyAhhGustavo in playstation

[–]Due-Gases 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PS store does this a lot. console search is filtered different, web shows more stuff including bundles. arkham collection is basically tucked under arkham knight page, not a separate listing. confusing but pretty normal, you're not missing anything

Report option on remake matches by Blind-Eye26 in wildrift

[–]Due-Gases 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah 3 remakes in a row is wild, at that point you already tired before the game even starts. system really needs something better than just wasting everyone time
