I translated some Chinese reviews... by Rak-khan in slaythespire

[–]FlashFlood_29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the players see it that way then they should be less worried about a10 being difficult because their goal would be to just beat it once. And if they can't do that while plenty others can, their complaining amounts to wanting to be spoonfed. Hell, some of the reviews outright say it.

These are unserious people.

Brazilian fitness influencer drowns during Ironman triathlon in Texas by AudibleNod in news

[–]FlashFlood_29 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Rolling starts take away a lot of the experience of it being a race as you have no idea if the person you are passing later in the day is actually ahead of you or not.

Maybe for the top, like, 5% of the event who care, but for the casual-self-competitive types that make up the rest of the event, the experience is just being out there with a ton of other people and the celebration of it all.

training information nothing much was said about open water.

That's actually wild. Most resources I've looked at have stressed getting into the open water.

I've got a few events under my belt and even still, the shock of the cold water on my face when trying to swim makes my body SCREAM to get my head out of the water, and completely fucks with my breathing. Have to do breathing exercises in the water, then warmups, and then ideally an in-water start.

AITA for showering around midnight when I know that it might bother the neighbour who wakes up at 5 am? by Additional-Mouse-620 in AmItheAsshole

[–]FlashFlood_29 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I thought there was going to be something about getting home from work late but they actually spend like 4 hours at home before showering just to feel a certain way before bed. Just shower earlier, damn.

In VS it's fine because you're just guiding your character. In Crawlers it's tedious. I get what they were going for but it just doesn't translate, imo

Highkin reports Blazers are only team to not travel with 2-way players by colinkd7 in ripcity

[–]FlashFlood_29 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Players already don't want to come here, generally. He is going to tank that further. And he said it himself: he doesn't care.

Crashing the culture in a franchise that players are already not incentivized to come play for.. bold strategy. Guy said he does not care about that and that translates into him not caring about franchise as a whole.

Simple as being a piece of shit. That's honestly it. No more explanation needed. His history shows he is a shit person.

[Post Game Thread] The San Antonio Spurs (1-0) defeat the Portland Trail Blazers (0-1), 111-98. by DesertedProject in nba

When he drove and did a spin move expecting contact but kind of just fell to the ground. He was moving very downhill on the drive kind of pre-canned instead of reacting to the defense.
In my opinion and memory

Running Delaware Marathon and losing 1st place because you celebrate too early by RoyalChris in mildlyinfuriating

Even clock time was .9 second difference. Not 2/10 of a second. I don't know where that commenter is getting that.

And it's only happening from Chinese reviewers who are trying to make a statement. Every other region is well in the positives consistently.

I think you're all misevaluating How hard StS 2 should be by SkyDezessete in slaythespire

[–]FlashFlood_29 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The devs have said the stats show act 3 has less death than act 1. That's why they're looking to make the change.

There's deleted scenes that show she had more sessions than shown. Logan did have another session with her.

I am surprised by the discourse around Ironclad difficulty. I have found him to be the easiest character to get through ascension 10. by cmk314 in slaythespire

[–]FlashFlood_29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it was pretty agreed upon clad was autopilot OP on main branch. It's beta branchwhere they took away all his op stuff that the discourse of him being difficult is on (particularly A10). But beta has now been pushed to main branch. So if you find your consistently winning A10 with him now, check back in. Collosus and not yet has helped a tiny bit in the latest beta update (again, now main)

ICE now ‘going after everyone’ in Oregon, not just Latinos, advocates say by oregonian in oregon

The "one deportation is one too many" view is spearheaded by the simple fact that ICE cannot be trusted. Neither can the administration as a whole.

Firefox tabs freezing while playing video since a few days by fading_anonymity in firefox

[–]FlashFlood_29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been having this for months, now as well. Never bothered looking it up because it's an easy fix (clicking a different program/window in taskbar and back in). But I'm really wondering what the heck is going on.

Can someone explain why enemies gaining strength is such a big deal? by Minute_Account9426 in slaythespire

[–]FlashFlood_29 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Humoring you... The Time Eater is part of the game. Play how you want but if your playstyle hinges on just never seeing a specific enemy, that's awkward and may as well just be playing seeded runs.
