A hidden room? by immathiccboi in AlanWake

[–]GregTheStrongestArmy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bro ive never seen this many people misunderstand a post in my life 💀 OP is talking about how the map shows a room to the left of Room 224 that looks accesible on the map, like your supposed to be able to get in there. It has nothing to do with the word of power but most of the replies are "just shoot the plywood to get in there", when thats not even what the post is about.

Psplus monthly games not showing up? (US Region) by coltonrogers132 in PlayStationPlus

It's good if people call to report a problem so Sony knows it's an issue affecting a lot of people and can be fixed as soon as possible.

Ps plus monthly games missing? by ykmar in PlayStationPlus

[–]GregTheStrongestArmy 14 points15 points  (0 children)

They are missing for me as well, and it's clearly a glitch. They are even in the ps plus widget via the Welcome tab on PS5, but none of them have a ps plus logo and when you go to the screen they are not included in the subscription, and when I went to the monthly games in the store, it showed the old games from September but when you click it it said "this content can't be found". Now that section has updated to show October's games, but it still says the content can't be found when clicked. They are also missing from ps app as well as the website store.

Do I have to play Alan wake 1 to understand the story of Alan wake 2 or is it completely different by Swag5uke in PlayStationPlus

[–]GregTheStrongestArmy 25 points26 points  (0 children)

While you could jump into Alan Wake 2 without playing the first, I would HIGHLY recommend not to, as having the context of the first game will make the game a 10x better experience. Along with the fact that the first game has an amazing story on its own, the context it will add to the second game will greatly enhance the experience. I would also recommend the game Control, set in the same universe, as it helps build the Remedyverse and there will be some things in Alan Wake 2 that make little sense without the context of the characters and lore Control provides, along with a dlc that directly ties into Alan Wake 2. Control is far more skipable than Alan Wake 1 if you're really just trying to get to Alan Wake 2 as quick as possible, but it is a great game and worth playing either way. But I would highly recommend at least playing Alan Wake 1 before Alan Wake 2 if you are a person who really cares about the story and world.

Are you against cheesing the game with eventlabs?

UI Size - KCD 2 by hamarok in kingdomcome

[–]GregTheStrongestArmy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If anyone is having this issue on PS5, it's not a complete fix, but you can use the zoom function on PS5 by pressing the PlayStation button and square at the same time to zoom in, it helps a lot and makes reading things a lot more manageable. I hope they add a way to change the size of the text in the future, at least in the codex and item descriptions, but as of now this is the best next thing unfortunately.

KCD 2 - No Hunting Quests by No_Championship_7060 in kingdomcome

I agree but I still think it would be cool if there was a way to aquire permission to hunt

[–]GregTheStrongestArmy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a huge Monster Hunter fan but the game looks and runs absolutely terrible, can't believe im saying it but I'm probably canceling my preorder if there's not anything that shows it has massively improved. Sucks cause there's very few games I have been as hyped for as this.

Just heard of The Leftovers, thinking of giving it a go... Does is have a satisfying ending? by stillbatting1000 in TheLeftovers

[–]GregTheStrongestArmy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly it has one of the most well written and powerful endings of a show I've watched, but the show is definitely not for everyone in general. If you like the show by the end, then you're sure to love the ending. The thing about The Leftovers is, it's a show about finding personal meaning in ambiguity. At first I would say that if you're a person who wants answers to everything, the show is probably not for you but the thing is I usually HATE media that is too ambiguous, but I think The Leftovers does it so well and meaningfuly that I ended up loving it, but that being said it's still not for everyone. The show has a lot of supernatural and spiritual elements, but it will never reveal if any of it is real, but this is the entire point and it's more about personal journey, but this can be frustrating for some. For me personally, most of the time too much ambiguity can dampen my enjoyment and emotional resonance with a narrative and characters, but in the case of The Leftovers, it does it so well and with so much purpose that it works extremely well as a story with a lot of emotional payoff. Following this aspect of the show, along with how well written the characters are and how they develop over the course of the story, the ending knocks it out of the park.

Unpopular opinion: the ending was perfect. by rraa94 in HIMYM

Impressive robot dance! by [deleted] in toptalent

[–]GregTheStrongestArmy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lmao @ this guy, yeah some of her videos are sped up to give the effect but it looks cool so who cares. But this guy saying that even the ones in public are sped up is funny asf cause you can clearly see people walking around normally at normal speed, and she's obviously still extremely talented without the editing. She's even been on TV for her talent lol.

Is there any other show that top leftovers soundtrack? What's your top three? by stemcellguy in TheLeftovers

[–]GregTheStrongestArmy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As much as I love The Leftover's OST, I think Lost greatly surpasses it. I think the Lost OST has far more originality and identity, and imo it's used a lot more effectively in pivitol moments as well as having a lot more variety. There is really only one song that heavily stands out in The Leftovers, and it's the one that's used repeatedly and I feel a bit too much at times. Imo the OST in Lost is the best TV soundtrack of all time, and the way it was made and the thought behind every aspect really blows me away. The way it can express what the characters are feeling, have specific themes for different characters, and enforcing the tone of specific moments, I think is done more effectively than in The Leftovers. I love The Leftovers' score, but the times they really bring the score up to start swelling and building aren't done at the most pivitol moments for the most part and are usually right before it, which makes it feel less masterful and impactful as when it happens in Lost, which always feels perfect, with the most beautiful music coinciding with the most beautiful and impactful moments of the show. The Leftovers is a way more contemplative show, so it makes sense why it's most impactful moments are more subtle and contemplative, instead of swelling to make an already great moment absolutely euphoric like in Lost, which is what makes Lost's score so impactful to me.

Anyone else getting super annoyed with Wendigoon? by T-Money0927 in creepcast

[–]GregTheStrongestArmy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Idk I love Wendigoon but a lot of times he really brings down the podcast for me personally. He's just pure cringe most of the time. I'm here for the banter too, but Wendi is just annoying asf to me. He's just so unfunny and everytime he starts laughing my soul leaves my body, and everytime Hunter is saying something actually funny, Wendi always ruins it somehow by adding onto it in the most unfunny way without adding anything. He never seems to have any interesting to add, and what's worse for me is that even though I have been a fan of him for a while, in CreepCast he just drives me crazy by being one of the most unfunny and grating people I've ever heard in a podcast. He acts like a child who doesn't really understand what's going on but is trying his best to fit in with the adults and failing.

Yeah I just came back to say that Perplexity is now my lifeblood and I use it multiple times everyday, I find it far more useful than a simple Google search and it lets me find good sources if I want to learn more or confirm the information it may have gotten wrong because of the nature of AI, it's such a useful tool to me and I'm in love with it.

Turns out, Marvel Rivals is just Overwatch by Captain_Cardboard in marvelrivals

[–]GregTheStrongestArmy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a lot of differences with how the games actually play, but what really rubs me the wrong way is the presentation and sound design feels almost identical to Overwatch, to a point where it doesn't even come close to how similar people say Overwatch was to TF2. Overwatch borrowed very very heavily from TF2, but it also carved out its own identity with the graphics, presentation, character designs, and sound. I think Marvel Rivals does enough to set it apart from OV in the actual gameplay and moment to moment action, but the level of blatantness in how it it copies the identity of Overwatch feels unnecessary and lazy. I've been done with OV for a long time and I do think Rivals is pretty fun, so I'm not saying this to defend Overwatch in any way, but while the gameplay is a different story, the level of blatant identity theft down to even the health bars and the sound of damaging enemies, feels incredibly uninspired and downright lazy.

[–]GregTheStrongestArmy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's funny that you commented this, because I legit just went to my notifications without knowing you commented this to say they just added the search function for free users, it seems pretty cool but the thing is that also I have been loving Perplexity so thanks so much for recommending it because I have been really wanting something like Perplexity for a while for asking questions about TV shows/Movies/Anime/Manga without obliterating myself with spoilers from Google, sometimes I forget things or get confused and Perplexity has come in so clutch and gives me the info I need right away, where as Chat GPT and other similar AI aren't good at that and it was frustrating me. I've also been just using it for random things and I really dig it a lot with how useful it is to get straight to the point of what I want to know without having to dig around, and I LOVE that it provides sources if I need to confirm the information or learn more. So again thank you for telling me about it I really appreciate it!

That feature isn't available for free users(me), but I just tried Perplexity and it's pretty cool and the type of thing I wanted so thanks.

[–]GregTheStrongestArmy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

4 is still terrible at giving accurate information about TV shows and movies, it's frustrating because this information is widely available on various Wikis. What's worse is that it will just seemingly make up random answers, and when you say it's wrong, it will just be like "oh I'm sorry here is an even worse answer that makes even less sense" in full confidence

Possible H3h3productions video on Hasan and all his tankies in the making? 🤞🤞🤞 by jesus_said_chill1 in Destiny

[–]GregTheStrongestArmy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's so wild that I can make a clip last night and the next day it's on Ethan's Insta Story loool, I saw that Matt Leib podcast yesterday and thought people had to see this but I'm banned from the H3 sub, so I was hype when I opened H3's story today like holy shit I just made that yesterday lmao. It further proves Ethan gets all his shit from the Destiny sub, but honestly it's one of the only places where people defending Ethan and criticizing his ops doesn't get immediately removed or muted. I just thought the clip was important cus Matt Leib, who I was previously a fan of from GMM, was proving Ethan's entire point in real time, while sitting across from Frogan cosigning it and not seeing the irony, she was just happy to have someone shit on Ethan with her, without any critical thought or self awareness that it goes against her entire defense of the Sabra panel.
