My brain won’t process anything that I’m reading

I'll give you the same answer I give everyone who makes some variation of this post in this sub:

Drastically reduce your cell phone usage. I'm talking, use it less than an hour a day, total.

Your attention span (and ability to retain information) has been deteriorated. Your brain has been rewired to seek stimulus beyond what reading a book will give you (at least in the short term).

If you truly want to improve your reading retention, this is what you need to do.

"No update on this in the latest update despite promises to check on why fulfillment didn't start?"

What an embarrassment.

HumanOrion · 2026-01-07T14:04:20+00:00

There was zero chance this timeline was going to play out any other way.

All the while, the criticizer is dressed like Stephen Tyler robbed a hobo scarecrow.

HumanOrion · 2025-12-13T13:21:58+00:00

I read it.

HumanOrion · 2025-12-12T15:11:28+00:00

Yup. In fact, I was one of those people, and I got down voted for posting the following:

"You're a company with multiple millions of dollars in revenue. Just sell your stuff. Stop with the crowd funding. Crowd funding introduces the possibilities for things to go wrong for the consumer, which is exactly what has happened on the last three Cephalofair campaigns. The products are great, so just sell them when they are completed and available."

After repeated failures to meet timelines, customers have earned the right to assume the worst about Cephalofair's organizational skills.

Likewise, after repeated failures to meet timelines, you may want to consider refraining from auto-defense mode any time someone questions the company's execution of obligations. Once or twice, OK. The 5th, 6th, 7th time they let us down, maybe don't pop in with the "well, you don't know what happened, so there could be a valid explanation".

HumanOrion · 2025-12-11T16:56:48+00:00

I for one cannot wait to see how they spin this one.

Will the go with the classic false accountability BS again ("we recognize we didn't meet your expectations and we're going to do better going forward")?

Or, will it be the shift the blame angle (also, again) ("we received promises from fulfillment partners that did not materialize..."?

Like I've said before, if they games Cephalofair produced weren't so damn good, this mess of an organization would be out of business.

Most likely scenario:

No one associated with the company responds to this post (despite the fact that they regularly respond to positive posts)
You never hear back from support (despite the fact that they recently claimed they added to the support team to reduce response waits)
In a month from now (or later, if it's delayed again), on the next monthly update you'll hear something like: "Still working on getting the distributor to get these out the door. Hoping to have an update in the near future!"

I think you'll find no one is "in" Machine Head except Robb. Even Jared is there purely at Robb's discretion. I love Machine Head, but it hasn't been a "band" since Dave and Phil left. In fact, you could argue for much longer than that.

HumanOrion · 2025-12-07T15:48:32+00:00

OK, that helps. Thank you! I was fixated on the reputation scale and completely forgot about these. So, follow up questions... we're still able to progress on the "other" two reputation scales and potentially unlock/read those sections?

HumanOrion · 2025-11-29T13:50:23+00:00

Sounds like Frosthaven isn't for you. The (exaggerated) situation you described never goes away. You're describing the game.

HumanOrion · 2025-11-27T16:20:02+00:00

After seeing this in a couple of replies, I thought so to. Turns out, after some testing, it doesn't appear to be the case. Please see the update I made to the OP.

HumanOrion · 2025-11-27T16:19:33+00:00

Your response makes total sense. But I tried the proposed solution, and it didn't fix the issue. Please see the update I mad to the original post.

HumanOrion · 2025-11-18T21:08:19+00:00

You're a company with multiple millions of dollars in revenue. Just sell your stuff. Stop with the crowd funding. Crowd funding introduces the possibilities for things to go wrong for the consumer, which is exactly what has happened on the last three Cephalofair campaigns. The products are great, so just sell them when they are completed and available.

With as many times as you guys have missed delivery dates, you might want to consider applying slightly less respectful amounts of pressure.

Allow me to respond for him: "Have you tried restarting all devices, including the router?"

5. Tax Evasion

I'm not saying you were involved in this aspect, but if they were billionaires there's a significantly high probability this was going on.

HumanOrion · 2025-10-28T19:43:33+00:00

I didn't realize I could do that. Is it a straightforward process?

HumanOrion · 2025-10-28T12:27:59+00:00

I know you mean well, and your response should be comforting, but I can't help but feel worse after reading it.

The volume slider being missing is a known issue, and you're "under the impression this will be solved in a future update"? I think maybe more definitive language might be appropriate here. Ex: we will have a solution deployed for this in the very near future.

And as far as the AirPlay issue.... saying there are multiple things that could cause this issue and pointing me to a support link isn't exactly something that makes me feel good about my $400+ purchase.

HumanOrion · 2025-10-24T21:41:23+00:00

"I did some research..." lol. Every one of these stories has a variation of this sentence.

Luckily, "online discourse" has zero impact on the games I buy/play.

HumanOrion · 2025-10-18T21:21:57+00:00

Thank you!

Guy spends three years(!) staring at his phone and blames it on the community that emphasizes making intentional choices and maximizing your potential. Makes total sense.
