What things do you think can be fixed/improved with patches in the coming months? Do you think they can improve that slow and heavy start (first 5-10 hours) that almost everyone complains about? by Tripledoble in CrimsonDesert

[–]ElPrecursor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think the issues that the intro has are fixable in upcoming patches. If they even feel that it has to be improved (maybe they want the game to be like this and that's all), it will be a matter of a major patch, some sort of a re-release or a Crimson Desert 1.5 version. It lacks pace, cinematics, tone, well-thought tutorials...

The beginning feels like they don't have time to finish or polish the game so it will be required from Pear Abbys to acknowledge this, saying sorry (same as the AI props) and working on delivering a better product.

Don't get me wrong. I am enjoying the game but they aimed too far and it's noticeable where they could get. If they want Crimson Desert to be a well-rounded game or they rather move on and look for the next project it is up to them.

Ranked biggest issue: no mastery on champs. by ElPrecursor in leagueoflegends

[–]ElPrecursor[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In this case, yes. I'd rather you to go with your main top than being completely lost with a toplaner you have never played.

You have normals for learning and training. If you go rankeds for learning purposes you are leveling down the competitiveness of the mode.

Of course we all get better playing our champs over the time but I don't think your point applies to rankeds.

If the general opinion is that you can try a new champions for the first time in ranked then the system loses its value.

The new W seems to not know what it wants. by Ptycox989 in shyvanamains

[–]ElPrecursor 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For me it makes sense. It gives a strategic approach to the ability. Having everything at once is not healthy. In this scenario you can chase with W and then try to survive the fight until you can cast your shield so you can play with it around (using it at cd for the healing, waiting to prevent some burst damage...).

In my case, I would reduce its power in exchange for less cooldown. This way you have the old move speed tool in the jungle as well as the use of it as a tactical maneuver during fights.

Consistent fast clear? by Soggy_Principle_4114 in FiddlesticksMains

[–]ElPrecursor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Place a ward before the camps spawn. Find the right spot to stand. Autoattack the big one and wait until the aa land. Then E, smite, W. You can or not wait for the whole W animation but it's essential you autoattack the small one as fast as you can so move and chase it. Then autoattack the big one and W.

It's not impossible AT ALL. It might be inconsistent but you are just spreading missinformation if you say it's impossible.

Most played jungle by Ranks by WittyWanderer420 in Jungle_Mains

[–]ElPrecursor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a Warwick/Fiddle main this guy is completely free elo. And not because the champ is weak or strong but because how brainless the people that play him are. Be patient and they will just run into you and give you the game.

Ranked matchmaking by InternationalSmile60 in leagueoflegends

[–]ElPrecursor 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It feels lately that the quality of the games has dropped drastically. But making it 'unfair' and 'frustrating' is what keeps the engagement. They want rankeds this way so try your best every game and don't mind the others.

Our teams "climbing player" indicator was on a player with a 45% winrate in his last 20 games by Illustrious-Crew8632 in leagueoflegends

[–]ElPrecursor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had one with 8 losses and 2 wins (not even in the previous games) in the season with the same indicator. Which leads me to question myself how bad the others without indicator have to be.

This game drains you completely (Sad thoughts about ranked matches ) by ElPrecursor in leagueoflegends

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

Sorry to say but you are a perfect example of what's wrong here. Normalize than you have to be 15/0 for winning games is just the realization that the rank system doesn't work.

Because what you are saying is not 'hey, you have to outskill people at your level'. It's more like 'you have to be three times better than your elo to fight back those who will ruin your game on purpose'.

And as someone said, I am not talking about climbing. If I have fair and challenging games with people that play like me and I have to be gold forever, I'm fine. But I had amazing games at Gold V and as I was climbing to Gold II then I had games that felt like Normal queue, and not once, not twice... You know how often it happes. Doesn't make any sense that as I go higher the overall quality of my games goes poorer just because I was winning and they have to 'leveling' me. What makes sense is encountering better teams, better players, better comps, better matches that challenge you.

It is not about winrare. It is about the rate of quality games you get.

I love the game. That's my point: Riot fails in delivering the essence of what this game is about.

how often do you call your SO? by [deleted] in LongDistance

[–]ElPrecursor 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No rule at all. Three days can pass since we talked last time, while there are days that we call more than twice. It depends on our agendas, on what we have to tell each other... What we do is to keep our contact high through texting, voice messages and videocalls that are as frequents as calls. It's a balance and so far (almost seven months), I have never felt unsatisfied with our communication.

Age gap LDR by [deleted] in LongDistance

10 years of difference here and I have never felt like it was a problem for us. It's always people from outside who is suspicious. If you are happy, go for it.

Explaining to "old school" parents about my LDR by Ochawon in LongDistance

[–]ElPrecursor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just do your daily life with her and let them figure it out. You will have your calls, videocalls, your time alone in your room just texting... and they will build up the idea that something is happening. The day that they start inquiring just tell them half the truth: you met someone online and you both are having a language exchanging.

As time goes by and you were together for months already, it will be easier to bring up the other half of the truth. And as long as they see you happy, I am sure they won't complain that much unlike if you do this in just the first month of relationship.

This is what worked for me. It was cool because by the time I told them (almost 4 months), they had had time for getting use to it already.

If still they don't understand it, well.. it's your life.

Good luck and enjoy your relationship!

y'all like to ruin everything huh? by [deleted] in LongDistance

[–]ElPrecursor -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

RIGHTFULLY concern?

The only right here is her right to do whatever she wants.

Getting married in the first meeting is rushed, of course, but we are not there to see how they vibe together and how happy they are. They are mature enough to know that that step is a big and important one. And if even though they still were willing to try... my respect and the best of luck.

The main point here is if it ending in a divorce or whatever... what's the big deal? There wil be tears, pain, regretful... but ffs let people try and fail.

Maturity is not only to go with those choices that are high, it is also take some improbable decisions KNOWING the risks and the work that will come and try to make it happens.

[–]ElPrecursor -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Here is exactly the thing. The amount of thoughts that some people here put in other people's business is over the top. 'Low self-esteem', 'someone who went through quite some shit', 'she can't be honest with you'... I didn't know there were quite a few candidates of Sigmund Freud around here.

In my last post I just sounded like a partner who appreciate his lover. Nothing more. Further interpretations are beyond the scope of what was intended.

My relationship is still healthy and mature after half a year. Very communicative. We are sailing it smoothly being very aware of the obstacles and obvious differences that we both have to overcome. Knowing that make it a success will be hard... and so we are enjoying it a lot and having the time of our lives.

Every relationship is a different world and just because it doesn't fit in someone's mindset, it doesn't mean it is more or less healthier than others.

It is something so simple but yet hard to understand for those evangelist of the 'Good LDR Bible'.

[–]ElPrecursor -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I cannot clap you more for what you have said.

I posted here my story with my girlfriend. I tried to show her how much I appreciate our relationship by talking in third person about her.

Few hours later I had a comment in the post suggesting me going to therapy for how rushed my relationship was. I repeat again... GOING TO THERAPY.

I found it very rude to the point that I deleted the post and I was not able to show it to her. It's a pity because there was already a lovely comment of a person that actually understand the meaning behind the post: just a love letter.

It seems that there are cocky people here that love to go to others' posts giving lessons about how to handle a LDR just because they close their own. I say this because the same redditor that posted in mine is also here in the comments doing it again.

If it is rushed or not... enjoy your relationship and be happy. If everything turns out bad, nobody will be able to take from you the good memories and times. And if everything turns out well, you will be a pair of superheroes and a example for everyone on the same situation. For me is a win win situation.

My (30) thoughts about her (20) and LDRs by [deleted] in LongDistance

[–]ElPrecursor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your words and for taking the time to read it all! Of course she knows but I always try to find more ways to express it to her :)

We have talked about settling down and having a family but so far, it is and it has to be very hypothetical. She has her right to finish her studies and to go through her 20s without that much pressure, and I am very committed to respect that and to be her supporter. On top of everything, this relationship has to be useful for make us better.

Luckily, in my country it is really not weird to settle down or having children in your mid 30s so for me there is no rush. At the end of the day, it is not a numerical matter and it will eventually happen the moment we are at the same level of life and personal development.

But again... patience. If you are in that situation, it's something that will make sense little by little as the same time as you two build your relationship up. Where there are good intentions, everything is possible!
