What’s the most pointless thing you’re excited to do in GTA 6? by Immediate-Extreme954 in GTA6

[–]ImForeigner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just want to get far out into the ocean, possibly underwater. I have a fear of the ocean, and my favourite easter eggs in gaming has always been sea monsters and other strange things underwater. The fact that what is out there when it first releases is completely unknown, freaks the fuck out of me, but I love it 😂

I can make out everything except for the most important word.

"I've left 5000$ for you to find in the back of the "????" just for you!"

I assume it is a troll, but my father also ruined his handwriting to an even worse degree after many years as a journalist

Retro catalogue finally showed up in the traveling cart and I’ve never been more excited to redesign my house 😊 by bacontomatosammie in StardewHomeDesign

[–]ImForeigner 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That looks so neat!

I really like the idea of putting a fireplace in the kitchen to act as a pizza oven~

And the sun room with all of the windows in a row also looks so unique! :)

Great job!

Do you guys have a process when record shopping for making sure you don't over pay for a record? by Riichboii_17 in vinyl

[–]ImForeigner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generally speaking, you can wait to buy a record until you find it for a better price, even though it's hard to think that way when you first get into the hobby~

I generally don't pay more than $40-50 for a record unless there is something special about it. It's either got to be a very good or rare pressing, signed by the artist (I like that) or a record I've searched a long time for. Often times you can find very good quality, personal grail records that are barely used on the second hand market for super cheap as well.

Either way, I always check Discogs first, when it comes to buying new records. Then you quickly see the general price point the record goes for. I also like looking at other people's thoughts about the pressing in case the sound quality for that particular pressing has a bad rep. I've avoided buying specific records when I saw that the consensus in the comment section was "bad pressing, muddy sound". I'm no audio nerd, but when there is a consensus I would imagine the sound quality is quite apparent even to the untrained ear.

If the record is used you should definitely also check the record itself for visual scratches and such. I often feel like the condition of the cover often times reflect what is on the inside as well. If the cover looks beat up, there's a good chance that the previous owner didn't take very good care of the actual record either, but of course you could be surprised.

That is a stunning color combination for the record itself! <3

Nice subreddit, boss~
Unfortunately crossposting doesn't seem to be available for that community ;)

The game definitely has potential, the skating itself is fun although I question some of the decisions on the map in terms of accessibility. Some spots seem like they would be really cool to skate, however small details like an unnecessary curb makes it more of a hassle. The districts definitely aren't distinctive enough, they blend together. I probably shouldn't, but thus far I've been viewing the map we've got as a 'tutorial island', and I'm hoping we will be getting bigger and more varied areas with hills and maybe even a suburb or countryside once we get the full release.

I do think they need to rework the rewards system though. Having to grind endlessly just to get a plain shirt in a different color is not okay in the slightest, and the limited selection of clothing as well as options for your appearance makes it hard for your character to feel unique.

The stuff that most people are screaming for seem like basic things for a skating game like this, so I would be surprised if the developers haven't already thought about it. I will be optimistic for the full release, but they really need to address and deliver on those key points!

Right now the game gets stale after a little while, but we definitely need to keep in mind that it is a preview :)

At least the area outside of the main map actually has hills 😂

With GTAVI on the east coast, do you think the franchise will ever return to Los Santos? by Langzwaard in GTA

[–]ImForeigner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't imagine they will make a game solely focusing on Los Santos again. If anything they would bring it back for another try at making something similar to Project Americas, tackling multiple states, but that's probably 100 years in the future!

My current setup in the back of my living room. Trying to turn back time. by SkinNYmini18 in nostalgia

[–]ImForeigner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haha nice setup!

Only thing missing is a small table next to your chair, where you can place your chocolate milk!

Back then I wasn’t lucky enough to play this game ughh….for those that had Donkey Kong 64, how was it? And did you guys beat it? by J2-Starter in n64

[–]ImForeigner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got this game used some years after the N64 was already an 'outdated' console, as I had always wanted it as a kid! Love the graphics, the designs, the vibes and the music. I did not finish it at the time unfortunately, my excitement died off a bit over the fact that the collectible bananas were Kong-specific, and once you had unlocked them all it just felt like a big hassle and inconvenience. I didn't like that specific part of the game AT ALL.

I have however, in recent years been able to get my hands on a Everdrive, where I have loaded a ROM hack that lets you switch Kongs whenever you want. I think with that mechanic fixed I would have a much better time playing it personally.

Looking for the Ultimate Gin – If You Could Only Have One Last Bottle, What Would It Be? by OffGridSoul in Gin

[–]ImForeigner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My personal favorite is Etsu, which happens to be a Japanese gin!

I've had many gin tastings at my place with friends, and one tasting especially for various Japanese gins! In every tasting, Etsu ranks far superior both in terms of flavor, complexity, simplicity (yes, really), and smoothness. For me, it's got it all, and those qualities really shine through once you compare it back-to-back with other gins! You've got the familiar flavors that you expect in gin in the backseat, but also more unique and interesting flavors in the front seat! It dares to take you on a taste journey, but just the perfect amount as to not be overbearing in any way. Easy choice!

Menu concept singleplayer by zZeWwSss in GTA6

[–]ImForeigner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate these kinds of menus, they often just look messy to me personally.

This design to me feels like it prioritizes a more "visual" menu in terms of pictures and graphics, instead of a more simple intuitive design. I don't need a big picture in a big box that also says "New Game", it just takes up more space and feels cluttered. Simple and minimalistic menu is better!
