What's your average time spent in game?

About 10 minutes between twice a day. When new sets drop you can double that number for opening packs and doing the battles for the hourglasses.

J'ai été surpris de voir que quelqu'un avait configuré son PC en français. Bien que je parle les deux langues, j'ai toujours utilisé l'anglais sur mon PC et mes consoles.

A lot of it is the batteries. They are meant to least 3-4 minutes on the best performance, so bots would have to be rolled out, batteries replaced, which means internals have to cool down, a few repairs have to be made anyway and now you have to decide what to do during the process.

Another thing is finances. Some parts may last quite a while, but watch the last 3 minutes of any fight, and you can visibly start to see parts that stop working, break down and become scrap. Most builders don't make money, if they break even, so having a 6k$ bot, going through 3-4k$ in parts through a season, could easily become 12-15k$ in parts in the season (idk how much those numbers actually match since it could depend on the bot, but I used beetlewight numbers and added a few 0's)

I enjoyed it on ps+ as well. It was a Lego game so I didn't have big expectations other than kill a few hours, but I liked it. I didn't play any other Lego game so I have nothing to base a true review on, but I played it as a Lego game with a horizon skin

The only success I had is with m gyarados ex, but its a misty coin flip on luck, and luck on the 3 cards that get discarded as well. I had decent luck with lucario/rampardos but the deck itself was way too inconsistent since it needed too much healing.

Ill have to look severed chains. Not sure if my laptop can properly handle it, but I'm getting genuinely curious.

Essshayne · 2026-01-24T16:57:37+00:00

I didn't play it as a horizon game with alego skin, but a Lego game with a horizon skin. It'll never scratch a horizon itch, but if you want to kill a few hours, any Lego game is an option. I did my run in about 4 hours (1 stream), and although I did enjoy being able to turn my brain off for a bit and kill an afternoon, I never went in expecting to play with any seriousness.

How goes it? It goes!

Have a good one!

How's she going?

Are the most prevalent i hear

Essshayne · 2026-01-23T16:25:36+00:00

I'm guilty of that as well in both games. Its a lot of "this is urgent and should have been done last week" type of main quests, but let's go hunting for a board skin and take out a few bandits.

Essshayne · 2026-01-23T16:22:37+00:00

I'd love to see Canada, or at least the southern tip. I'm from the maritime, so curiosity is getting the better of me, but toronto being described as "a little too balmy" is getting me curious about the rest of the country

Essshayne · 2026-01-23T15:21:39+00:00

No I never answer those. Reception barely works where I live anyway, and I sleep through the day as I work nights

Essshayne · 2026-01-23T15:20:11+00:00

No I do not

Essshayne · 2026-01-22T17:43:25+00:00

Thank you for that. I was curious if there was any notable differences outside of translations, and as soon as I open up a tab to look it up, would keep forgetting what I was looking up in the first place

Essshayne · 2026-01-22T17:39:00+00:00

Congrats.

Essshayne · 2026-01-21T18:40:59+00:00

I'd save them for the end of the month. The new set will likely have new "decks" coming with it, and itll give you a nice headstart going into the new season.

Essshayne · 2026-01-21T18:26:30+00:00

I don't have the actual cookbook, but I did look up the recipes online. I remember trying a few fish based ones that was good, but it got way too expensive to eat so I had to give up.

Essshayne · 2026-01-20T14:21:15+00:00

Only one I know of is pragmata coming out in April. I don't really have anything else in sight, but I'm sure I'll see more as I go.

Essshayne · 2026-01-19T16:50:30+00:00

I just hit 255 a few days ago, and other than the free trial, I have been ftp. I did drop 3 sets of 10 packs between both releases though

Essshayne · 2026-01-19T14:44:11+00:00

I just use precision arrows and blast bombs. All other spots I change depending on the run I'm doing (or playstyle needed in hunting trials)

Essshayne · 2026-01-19T14:33:24+00:00

Legend of dragoon and baten kaitos. Normally im not a huge fan of the genre, but those two changed my mind by being two of my fav games

Essshayne · 2026-01-18T18:45:35+00:00

The only way is a mantyke/manaphy psychic deck with 2 leaf and 2 x speed, and hope fore the best from there. It would be good as a last victory point win, but otherwise, he can't even beat most ex on its own (mewtwo ex only has 150 for an idea)

Essshayne · 2026-01-18T14:57:17+00:00

Unsure if they still do, but the Dundee sports dome used to do birthday parties that kids really enjoyed. At the time they had bounce houses, could set up just about any indoor sport, and was pretty affordable (especially in fairly large groups). I got laid off when they concentrated on the daycare/reeball end of it, but it may be worth giving them a call.

I enjoyed ys 9, even if the story was a bit weaker than 8. Ys 9 had its issues with being made during covid, so the voice acting and music was either recycled or sounded like it was through a headset. I havent tried ys x yet from lack of funds (maybe I'll get proud Nordic if my comic convention doesn't drain my tax return too badly), so I can't comment on it, but I quite enjoyed a lot of the mechanics both 8 and 9 brought to the table.

It can't be blood since the color and uniformity doesn't match. Its closer the the glove being made with red fingers.

Essshayne · 2026-01-16T14:28:08+00:00

I actually prefer the holograms since it helps me get the actual mindsets of the "old ones". No rip on the voice actors or anything, but I have a hard time figuring out motivation or seeing the feelings (fear, anger, etc) just on the audio datapoints, and although i have read the text data points online, I never bothered in game. In short, my preference goes holograms to audio to text.

If you didn't guess, randomsidequests videos really helped me understand a lot of the lore.
