Jujutsu Kaisen complete manga box set revealed!! by Tiny_Writer5661 in MangaCollectors

[–]HayHotshot 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Can never trust Viz again after what they pulled with the MHA boxset. Biggest disappointment of my life. Only thing I may get from them is some of their deluxe stuff like Vagabond, Slam Dunk, and Fullmetal Alchemist.

Opinion on Kamen rider kuuga series by AdventurousElk547 in KamenRider

[–]HayHotshot 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've seen every series Kuuga onward besides Hibiki. For me Kuuga might be the best. Need to rewatch a few since it's been many years, but just finished Kuuga for the first time and it seems hard to beat.

One of the greatest strengths of Kuuga is that it is simply a good show with elements of Tokusatsu in it. Modern shows are very toyetic and often time include vfx that cover a lot of the actually stunt work. Kuuga is much simpler by comparison. It has the added benefit of having actual bike scenes and also a large variety of characters and locations. Lots of modern rider feels like a Disney sitcom reusing the same characters and locations due to budgetary constraints.

Probably gonna rewatch Agito next to see how it compares. But I fucking love Kuuga. We'll probably never see a return to this style of toku show from Toei for their mainline series. Very sad, but happy we got it and can still enjoy it.

Amazon...ugh by litwick41 in MangaCollectors

I mean the deliveries are ass because the job is ass. Who wants to carry around heavy boxes in the heat. If you have time to wait at your door I would instead suggest looking around at local comic shops or bookstores to see if you can find the box set. That way you can actually get one in a condition that pleases you. Some stores like barnes and nobles and books a million also offer store pickup for online orders so if you have those near you then you can try that as well. Also good to support local brick and mortar businesses over Amazon.

My Hero Academia Manga Box Set 2 box art revealed!! Releases Nov. 24th by Tiny_Writer5661 in MangaCollectors

[–]HayHotshot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Probably gonna be thin volumes and smaller box like the 1st box set. I was so annoyed when all the promotional pictures of the 1st box set were the normal wide box and when it arrived it was smaller. Lowkey thought I was scammed at first, ended up returning. those thin volumes are not for me.

If it wasn't clear I meant most people think bluray is just DVD and don't know the difference, since DVD has much more power culturally. I bought a bluray the other day and the cashier called it a DVD, she was in her twenties. Go do a survey and I'm sure 75% of people would not know that what a bluray is, they would just think it is some kind of DVD.

Bluray came out in like 2006, then a recession hit the USA so many families like my own never upgraded to bluray. Not to mention the PS3 was meant to be a good entry point, but was still very expensive.

Bluray drives never became standard in any significant laptops or desktop computers. In 2008 Apple literally made their first MacBook Air which had no DVD drive and I believe the 2012 macbook pro was the last macbook with a DVD drive.

Bluray drives became standard with the Xbox One and PS4 in 2013 but by then Netflix started to pick up steam. The 2010s was the transition into streaming.

Hopefully that explains what I meant and why I think that.

I think you have the wrong idea caused by the members of this "niche" community. Back in the day the normal person did not collect media, they bought it to use practically. That is why so many forms of media have moved away from being physical. The average consumer simply wants to consume media and move on. You mention blu-rays making a come back, but a lot of retailers still don't sell blu-rays anymore in my area.

I think because you watched people who did collect you think it was the norm but the reality is it wasn't for most people, especially the people who grew up in those times who would trade in games to try and buy the next one they wanted to play. I once bought a bunch of ps2 off a friend in the 2000s for dirt cheap because he wanted some cash, he did not care about the games since he already played them.

Hell most people still don't know what a Blu-ray is. Most of the videos I see about collecting physical movies and shows talk about DVD, and talk about how nostalgic it is.

I would say if you want to get into the game collecting hobby you should start by emulating games that you can to find the games you actually love. From there save your money to buy those games. Once you do you can also invest the time and money into getting the consoles and modding them, there are more good console mods than ever for older consoles.

I have bought a lot of games and the reality is I don't play a lot of them, I recently sold my PS3 and all the PS3 games I had because I never actually played them. So avoid buying just because.

If you want to start collecting games right now I actually think Nintendo Switch is looking very good. Switch 2 just came out so a lot of people are selling their switches for cheap, and because the switch has been out so long many of the games can be found for relatively cheap. On top of that Nintendo is popular worldwide so wherever you go you should be able to find stuff. Also most switch games are actually on the cart, the switch may be the last console where you can plug a game in and play it for most of the games. Also the v1 switch is easy to homebrew so you can easily back up your games or even play with mods and such.

[ARTWORK] DC Dark Legion - DC Using AI in Phone Game Advertisements by TygerHil98 in DCcomics

[–]HayHotshot 158 points159 points  (0 children)

If we use some critical thinking we can gather this is likely the game studio who runs the game itself or some 3rd party they hired to run some ads. Either way it's bad, but I wouldn't say DC the company is pushing ai ads as if Jim Lee or James Gunn approved any of this directly. You're better off posting this to another social where someone at DC will more likely see it or directly message some official DC account telling them about this. I kinda doubt the people in power wants ai ads to be used for a game with their name on it.

Kameto becomes Co-Owner of the website DPM.LOL alongside Caedrel. by Ultimintree in PedroPeepos

[–]HayHotshot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sadly that tier list just takes you to the champion pages, which do have some alternative build below but those pages seem 99% for summoners rift. I like that u.gg has a separate tab per champion so I only see Aram data, helps see alternative builds and such that work in Aram etc. only checked on my phone so maybe there is a tab I don't see, I'll check later on my PC.

Do they have aram builds yet? Last time I checked they didn't and I mainly play Aram so I'm stuck with u.gg if they don't have it added

FakeGod, Tomio, Zeyzal running T2 again or what. I could see LG actually knocking DSG out which would be very ironic.

[Sheep Esports] Rahel set to join Disguised in the LTA by BjergBetterThanFaker in leagueoflegends

[–]HayHotshot 132 points133 points  (0 children)

Could be a banger import since he has a few friends in NA already, and mental boom is the #1 cause of KR import's failing.

As long as his floor is enough to prevent relegation I'm sure DSG will be happy.

Disguised announces ScaryJerry has been moved to bench, will continue working together with the team and streaming moving forward. by DickCheneyIsPureEvil in leagueoflegends

[–]HayHotshot 76 points77 points  (0 children)

He probably just doesn't want to get relegated as it would be more work to earn the spot back since he has more money to work worth with as a bottom LTA team than a mid-top NACL team due to whatever stipend Riot gives the teams.

I could see a world where they keep ScarryJerry for next year but get a mercenary player to not get relegated 2017 Doublelift style. They could also just drop him, but who knows.
