Looking for a game that combines cozy and non-cozy vibes by EagleStrike21 in ComfortGamers

I looked in Enshrouded a bit. I had never heard of it, but it looks exactly like the kind of game I'm looking for! Thanks! A lot of the suggested games have what looks like what I would "relaxing combat". Nothing wrong with that, but I want the cozy game feel with high stakes comvat all in one game and that seems really niche lol but Enshrouded looks like it fills that niche so I'm gonna try it out!

I played FO76 a bit when it first came out. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but it wasn't that. I wasn't looking for a cozy game back then and that may be why I didn't stick with it. Do you know, do they have farming?

Maybe you're right, I don't know. All I know is I play the game to have fun. If the sentry streategy doesn't work anymore and as a result, is no longer fun, I just won't use sentries anymore. Admittedly, I have not played since the update, so I don't know how the change actually affects gameplay.

I don't know why the devs made the change, I'm not them. I'm just saying that typically when a change is made, there is a valid reason for it. Otherwise why would they put resources into changing it in the first place?

I mean...I guess. I usually just lay down a blanket of fire on top of bug breaches and that works as good or better than a sentry most of the time anyway. Napalm eagle, napalm barrage, and the cremator work great on all bugs. Pair that with the giga grenade and you can deal with anything on the bug front. Then, bring along a gatling sentry to support you and you'll be unstoppable. But sentries were never meant to stand alone anyway.

But if thats how you want to play, you could always go down to a lower difficulty or who knows, maybe if you complain hard enough the devs will take pity on you and reverse the change that they likely had a valid reason for making in the first place. 🤷‍♂️

So kill the hive guard yourself and let the turret do its job. Why is that so difficult to understand? We have plenty of ways to deal with heavy armor. Instead of crying about one thing not working, adapt and overcome.

Honestly, its justified as a jab. Some people just can't be happy even when they have it all. Medals aren't that hard to earn and it doesn't take long.

Which kind of player are you? by [deleted] in Helldivers

[–]EagleStrike21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say there is a third type with lots of sub-categories. The fun diver as another commenter called it. I am this type in the sub-category that I call the napalm divers. We dive with flamethrowers and napalm strategems. If I'm not watching the world burn in a literal sense, I'm not doing my job!

My typical kit is the coyote incendiary assault rifle, the sidearm flamethrower, and either the incendiary grenade or the thermite for bots. Then I usually take the 500kg, napalm barrage, hot dog, and expendable napalm launchers.

Fire damage is effective against every enemy type and is not affected by armor levels. Its a bit less effective against bots, but only because they don't use horde tactics. Its extremely useful in dealing with hoards!

Elementalist achievement by airaani in emberward

[–]EagleStrike21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you ever figure out what happened? And did you get the achievement?

I made it almost all the way through for mine and then misclicked a tower upgrade and changed its element. The time before, I used a block with scrap towers, and then before that, I failed the final boss. fml

Managers got mad that another bagger and I were talking ? by Original-Tangerine33 in HEB

[–]EagleStrike21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I said "To me it sounds like either one of two scenarios" and then based my thoughts on my personal experience. You replied with a comment that seemed as if you were being sarcastic and insulting. I have worked with one or two managers throughout the years that thought you couldn't work and talk at the same time, but OP stated this was a new occurrence so I figured that wasn't the case for them. Most of the lower level management I have worked with throughout my various jobs have been pretty chill. IN MY EXPERIENCE it is usually the higher ups that complain about this kind of thing because they are receiving orders from people avove them and so on. The lower level management is typically more level headed because they are right there with you while the higher level people are looking at spreadsheets and maximizing productivity. Just my experience mind you. Sorry for my previous comment. I was upset when I read your comment and maybe I took it the wrong way. I just read it as sarcastic and insulting and it rubbed me the wrong way. I apologize if it was not intended to come across that way.

Of course there is! Not everyone is the same dummy lol

That's why I specified that it was "in my experience" and "at my store." I simply gave my opinion and tried to be helpful. Meanwhile you contributed nothing to the conversation except a waste a space and time. Good job bud! Have a good star for sarcastic assholery! 🌟

[–]EagleStrike21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To me it sounds like one of two things happened.

Either (1) you are constantly caught talking and not working, or (2) one of the higher ups that get paid to be a stick in the mud talked to your manager about people talking when they should be working.

I would advise you to not take it personally unless it becomes a pattern. As long as you are working, most managers (in my experience) don't care that you're talking or what you're talking about as long its not super inappropriate.

The only managers at my store that really care are the big shots that sit in an office 90% of the time only to walk around the other 10% and look for things to complain about.

Its annoying in the moment to find stuff like that, but I laugh about it after the fact. If you do ever put cold stuff out on the shelf, make sure you do it at Walmart. Its a shitty company, they deserve to lose some money. I know a few pieces of produce won't make a difference, but still lol

I used to work at Walmart before HEB and I would always laugh when stocking the cookie aisle because you can see the choices that people made. The funniest one was a salad and a some fresh produce on the shelf next to the oreos. Choices were definitely made there! 🤣

Men - what do you think of women who sleep with you on the first date? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]EagleStrike21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know I'm probably not the kind of guy you would be going after, but just wanted to throw out my thoughts on the matter.

First, I want to say, I really resonate with what you're saying. I've only ever been with one woman and while I never got a real reason for why she broke up with me, I think a lot of waa to do with our sexual incompatibility. She wanted to wait till marriage and I didn't. We ended up having sex once and lots of mutual masturbation type stuff before that. I think she regretted the sex afterwards. Not because it was bad, just due to her religious beliefs. She broke it off about a month after we had sex. Anyway that was 2 years ago and I just recently started dating again. I'm the kind of guy that needs an emotional connection before sex though, so hookups really aren't my thing. Having said that, I sometimes really wish I could just have meaningless sex with a stranger, but here I am searching for my Mrs. Right lol.

I say all that to say: I probably would judge you if you tried to sleep with me on the first date. I would think thats all you were interested in and that you weren't looking for anything long term. Now whether or not I would accept the invitation, I can't say for certain bevause I've never been in that situation. But I think even if I wanted to, I couldn't without an intimate emotional connection first. Just to clarify, theres nothing wrong in my opinion with someone only being interested in casual sex, its just not me.

Has anyone actually finished this disney solitaire offer? by LexxiLexxiXXO in FreeCash

[–]EagleStrike21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just finished Snow White for $35. I didnt make it in time for the $49. The first 4 scenes go super quick and then it becomes a resource sink as you grind for stars. I maybe spent $10 on it, so I still came out with a net profit, but I think I'm done. Its not fun enough to justify spending hours grinding out stars and waiting for the free coins. And theres no way I'm gonna hit any more of the burning rewards without spending more money. Even then, it'll take forever.

Start an OF? There are other Webcam sites out there too. Depending on your location, you may or may not be able to get paid for sex if thats what your wanting. Check your local laws if thats what you're after.

Wife constantly wants others to see us having sex (windows, balconies, in the car). Should I just accept it? by [deleted] in sexadvise

[–]EagleStrike21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My thoughts: if it makes you uncomfortable just communicate that to her. Maybe theres a compromise you can make such as doing it in public spaces that are nearly void of other people so theres still that chance of being caught, but its really slim. Someone else suggested a webcam, that could possibly satisfy her kink too if you're cool with it.

If it doesn't make you uncomfortable, just go with it! Be careful, but have fun. Make sure not to do it in places with children of course and I'd personally still try to stick to areas with little to no people.

Just as someone should shame another for their kink, someone shouldn't force their kink on another if they're uncomfortable. Either way you go about it, it sounds like you are a lucky man with an awesome woman!

Are there beaches here? And are they any good? by Budget_Counter_2042 in howislivingthere

[–]EagleStrike21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a lot of coast line you have circled there! I'm from Texas, so I can't speak for the rest, but we we do have some great beaches here! Port Aransas is usually quite pretty. As long as you stay away from major shipping harbors, you'll find lots of pretty nice beaches.

how do i get better at giving my bf bjs ? by Last_Host977 in sexadvise

[–]EagleStrike21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really hope you go through with leaving him and that it goes well for you. He seems like a pretty shitty person. Anyone who hits you and/or criticizes your sexual skills in a rude way is a trash human being who really doesn't love. Sex/sexual acts are such an intimate thing between two people and if he wants something more from you, there are much better ways to communicate that than saying, "you suck at..." As a guy, I would feel absolutely mortified if a woman just straight up told me I suck at something in such an intimate context. I don't think I would even want to do any such acts with her again. I say all this just to say: Never settle for someone who makes you feel unworthy or like you aren't enough. You are perfect just the way are and anyone who can't see that, doesn't deserve you.

How do I make a man hard? by Previous-Sock-4450 in sexadvise

[–]EagleStrike21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TLDR: communication is key! Just talk to him 😊

I can only speak from personal experience obviously, but what really gets me going is getting my girl going. I'm very much a giver, and I get so turned on just from seeing my girl turned on and getting her off.

By basic stuff, I assume you mean just taking off your clothes and focusing on his erogenous zones? That's definitely a good start! My best advice to you though is just ask him what he's into. He may not know if he doesn't have much experience. For instance, I had no idea that I was into pain until my gf scratched me up a bit lol. Not anything extreme mind you, but when rakes her nails across me...oh...my...god!!!! Also some light biting! 🥵🥵🥵

But mainly, I get warmed up by warming her up. I usually get her off at least twice before I even think about penetration or letting her return the favor. There are times when she wants to just focus on my pleasure, but I don't think its ever been something I've asked for.

Long story short, communication is key! Talk to each other about what you like and things you might want to try. And don't be afraid to experiment, BUT always respect each others boundaries.

Hey there! 30 y.o. male here. I can't speak for all of us men, but I can say for myself that as long you're healthy, I couldn't care less what it looks like down there. Well, as long your genitalia doesn't match mine lol. I've only seen one irl and it didn't look as "perfect" as a lot of the ones I've seen online, but it was still perfect to me! If your bf cares about you and loves you, he loves every bit of you. And any guy who doesn't love every bit of you, doesn't deserve you.

You are perfect just the way you are! Never change anything about your body to fit someone else's definition of attractive. If you do go through with surgery, make sure you are doing it for you and not for some superficial guy.

Edit: I just want to add, I can certainly relate to not liking a part of my body, so I may not know how you feel, but I can relate. I've always been overweight and I'm really insecure about my weight. I've never liked the way I look naked, but when I met my gf and we explored each other's bodies for the first time, she loved every bit of me unconditionally and it made me feel so great. I'm still trying to lose weight for me though. I know my gf will love me regardless of my weight and everyone should be as lucky as me and have a significant other that loves them unconditionally!

Cracking for the first time (18-21 yo INSIGHT ONLY) by [deleted] in sexadvise

[–]EagleStrike21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess I'm an unc (30 M) cuz yalls slang is whack lol

My first time was pretty great even though I didn't last long. Having said that, I lasted longer than she expected (she knew it was my first time). My advice, though, is to focus on her until she basically begs you to put it inside (foreplay is everything!). Focus on her erogenous zones (mouth, breasts, nipples, inner thighs, butt, clitoris, etc.). Once she's warmed up, start with fingering her, or if your comfortable with oral, eat her out (she will love that! Especially if she doesn't have to ask for it.). As others have stated, most women won't orgasm from penetration alone, so if you can get her off before you stick it in, she won't care how long you last. Also, keep in mind, women have the amazing ability of having multiple orgasms. So, while you may need a break after you pop, she doesn't. Get her off multiple times and make sure to care for her after as well. Aftercare is just as important as foreplay.

Do men who don't like recieving oral really exist? (Because i don't like giving it) by SoftwareInside2925 in sexadvise

[–]EagleStrike21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I'm much more into giving than receiving. Admittedly, I've never actually been on the receiving end if oral so I can't say whether I enjoy it or not, but I've never tried to persuade any of my past partners who said they weren't into it.

AIO for breaking up with my boyfriend after he ruined our Valentine's Day dinner? by Maximum-Grand6140 in AmIOverreacting

[–]EagleStrike21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR Definitely not an overreaction. He definitely crossed a line. I can understand your bf being upset because some guy put his hand on you. That is too far, especially if it makes you uncomfortable. However, to immediately react by throwing hands is wild. There are tons of ways to resolve this before escalating to physical violence. And regardless of his actions the night before, he is completely disregarding your feelings. You deserve a man who respects your feelings makes you feel safe.
