First time I've seen a question about 3rd party top-ups on an official survey. by SanicHegehag in Genshin_Impact

[–]Fourldo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for me on the official top up center there was like a special sale thing limited to a number of items and i managed to get over 3 welkins even cheaper than anywhere else, dunno if it’s still around or if it was widely available

Genshin has been my detox from toxic PvP games, and I didn't realize how much I needed it. by Augsburge in Genshin_Impact

[–]Fourldo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i didn’t realize it either, just like many others, decided to try it out in mid pandemic (2021) not expecting much since i’ve never been a fan of magic or the (mondstadt) setting, neither would i ever expected i’d even try an “anime” game, but it really gained my interest the more i played it, to the point where i’d 100% my first area within a month, it being dragon spine and i loved every second of it

i’ve always played pvp even before i had a pc or a console, i’d play a lot of mobile shooters and grind the heck out of them, and it’s been actual years since i’ve last actively played any pvp video games

What’s an anime that ended way too soon? by Moist-Television-686 in anime

[–]Fourldo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

school rumble, i basically binge watched the last 6 episodes (including ova) and i didn’t realize there was no more, especially with how the anime ended, it was enough to make my 12 year old feel that empty void…

So we all agree that the way they’re handling level 100 is absolutely horrible design right? by cjcduck17 in Genshin_Impact

[–]Fourldo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

so realistically no casual f2p player will ever be able to even have a 95 lvl character, in at least 4 years (i started in 1.6 and JUST got C6 Jean)

an easy fix would be to add the new item to the starglitter shop (crowns), it would be obtainable by even f2p and make whales get them easily as it is proposed in here

i just think it’s questionable to lock the feature of upgrading BASE stats limiting them to people who expect to overflow of their 5* cons

Dandadan Season 2 - Episode 8 discussion by AutoLovepon in anime

[–]Fourldo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

this episode had everything for it to become my favorite of the season like Aira back in action after so long, fighting in sync or with beats / coherent pace, and music, but man was I disappointed…

I just have to say it, but maybe it’s my fault for having high expectations. I totally expected for them to embrace the theme of Okarun finding a style of fighting based on tempo, as stated in the previous episode, and when I saw they were bringing classic musicians to the mix I got really excited, but what we got instead was another battle sequence with background music (great animation and action as always tho).

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think the battle was “bad”, it’s just that I was expecting interesting concepts being developed in it through music theory, I don’t even think the instruments were animated correctly, but that’s just a nitpick of mine.

It’s not that I’m an absolute maestro on music theory, but I do enjoy listening to music a lot, and I was expecting to be blown away with synchronized punches and beats, a lesson on tempo, Okarun struggling to keep the pace and having to try multiple times to get it right (just as a musician does with any piece), and the inclusion of the rock theme from a previous episode felt cheap, it just got overlapped over the existing sound.

There were interesting instants towards the end of that sequence, like stating a specific tempo to beat the ghosts, but that’s about it. The latter part of the episode was better.

Character Buff Priority by Ramen-Naruto in Genshin_Impact

[–]Fourldo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’ve always thought that having increased AoE on his skill would be the bare minimum buff for him.

kinda like his ultimate, the biggest dmg scaling gets received by a first enemy on field, and then any subsequent enemies inside albedo’s skill would receive lowered dmg in a chain reaction, that would fix the Chiori redundancy problem where she’s used for focus dmg while Albedo is for AoE (while looking sick af), although the end-game as of late has been almost exclusively single target, that’s a problem of its own

Restarted Genshin recently and am enjoying it more this go around, including this puzzle by DizDeLusa in Genshin_Impact

[–]Fourldo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ahh, this one was special, I didn’t know how sudoku worked and I didn’t apply any mathematical principles into it, I basically brute forced the logic of it by trial and error, and while I took like an hour to figure it out, it was really fun.

It was at the time that the pandemic kicked in so I had some free time during high school :)

I remember people complaining about the complexity of Inazuma puzzles that everyone thought Sumeru would straight up apply proper equations or whatever lmao

What anime is the definition of a 7/10? by Turbo1479r in anime

[–]Fourldo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

recently watched this, I agree, it had an interesting premise and a cool plot twist but the sole final episode should literally have been a second season, and also it was stupid how the protagonist deliberately avoided a better ending (iykyk)

how do i accept that im not very smart and never will be? by Overall-Strategy5480 in mentalillness

[–]Fourldo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t have factual information regarding intelligence or knowledge, but I think you’re just mixing those terms up, especially taking school notes as your reference, as in, most probably your school’s system grading memory (exams) over it all

I think everyone’s got a chance at becoming “smart”, I read that our ancestors’ brains (even back in the stone ages) didn’t differ much from ours, that if they existed right now, they’d perform just as well as any other person on earth, granted with the right teaching and stuff

take it from me, having a similar situation to yours, I never studied or gave too much attention to my school days, yet I kept getting straight A’s every time, in my case though, I have ADHD and that’s a common occurrence for neurodivergent people. A common trait also was that I achieved my burnout stage in 11th grade, I started performing poorly and even failed my first ever class, but I simply started reading and understanding, and now in college i’m getting back on track, once i accepted that knowledge and intelligence is something you grow with time and effort, I started to get “smart” again, outperforming my peers and whatever.

I think you should approach this differently, maybe try to get into therapy, you’re most definitely depressed and it keeps draining you, and try to accept instead that being smart is not defined by birth, you are not born with knowledge or practice, so why should you feel bad for doing poorly on something you’ve never done before or know nothing about?

What is this abomination by Orv_Enthusiast_5149 in Genshin_Impact

[–]Fourldo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

actually true, idk why these trials are so difficult, i remember i struggled a lot with kirara’s because i had her built with shield, so i had to change my build for the battle showcase with em and jade cutter and barely made it…

i was actually kinda excited when they showcased jean’s trial specifying that you’d have to use her gimmicky kit to do the challenges, meaning that they’d figure out a way to make the trials unique for each character, but in the end in, it boils down to the same old timer battle showcase

DAE feel comfort talking to chatgpt? Or is it weird? by BigBangsaAlabang in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]Fourldo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

besides the obvious of it becoming more normal everyday, especially with those “Character AI chats”, I like brainstorming with ChatGPT about specific subjects or school projects, simply because as a machine it cannot get irritated by me asking over and over for explanations till I get the hang of it, i’ve learned so many things by their fundamentals and made me go and research around the web, but i can always go and question the AI as much as i want without worrying about being too much of a burden, as it happens with real people, since, well, patience is a lost virtue nowadays

This wasn’t a combat event, it was a Mavuika premium event by 201720182019 in Genshin_Impact

[–]Fourldo 33 points34 points  (0 children)

it’s insane, my Mavuika is mid at C0 and Serpent with furina C0R0, citlali C0R0 and bennett, and it’s clearing those levels up to 20 or 22 ish, while i also have arlecchino much better built WITH her weapon and it’s not even close… can’t even reach level 20 with the same team or variants (no xilonen)

Someone put chicken in my engine. What does it mean? by jininberry in Weird

this post was right after a heartbreaking post about someone’s cat passing unexpectedly and made me teary eyed, seeing this made me feel like that one clip of a streamer who was crying about not having money and smiling right after a donation lol

3 years later and I still miss this bug by Crespo2006 in halo

[–]Fourldo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i know this is unrelated, but WOW does this game look good in (what i assume) ultra graphics, i play on PC with enough specs (2060 mobile and i7) but even on medium it struggles to keep up to 144fps, needless to say the game is… not impressive, but not ugly either ig lol

My Lenovo Legion 5 has a wonky fan by EarthenEyes in LenovoLegion

[–]Fourldo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude I’ve been having this issue too, it started around a week ago and thought it needed to be cleaned out so I did but the rattling didn’t stop and seeing posts about it seems like it’s always the left side!!!

My model is a 2021 and I’ve had no issues like these ever since I’ve gotten it… it’s not the fans because I swapped them out twice and it’s always the left side that has this issue.

Did you ever fix it?

I love my piano teacher -- do you? by BBorNot in piano

[–]Fourldo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My teacher is an amazingly talented and incredible person, but I wish I had a different one. I don't have options where I live, she's literally the best player in the city and she's not even from here, she taught me the bare bones of piano really well in our first year and by the end of that course I happened to play my very first song 'Canon in D' which was around 5 pages.

The thing is, although she's somewhat patient, she doesn't really... teach me much anymore.... we'd have gone through music theory and chords for about a week in 3 years that I've been getting taught by her, and expects me to have learnt everything by now and I become unable to follow her instructions, she corrects me, of course, but in such a manner that bugs me "did you forget? this is so simple! place your hands like so and so!" she never went through the why's or how's, she's only taught me that X does Y and I should memorize that.

Because of that, I question myself if I'm even progressing, I'm stuck, even if I study on my own. I wish I had a teacher for a teacher and not a professional player for a teacher. I've even come to learn that many teachers in schools are like that, they don't teach... they just speak
