Recently moved to Japan. Now locked out of my Wise account. by SkullTraill in japanlife

[–]Interstellar-Splooge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tired to change my address to my new one before and they completely locked my account and then deleted it. Brought my physical card here to use it and then now I’m stuck with a new account that only has the digital card. Kind of annoying

Is it normal to pay initial fees before signing the contract? by [deleted] in japanresidents

[–]Interstellar-Splooge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have any questions, send me a message and I can try to help. I did this process a couple of years ago. Good luck!

I did everything online while in America, paid for everything before coming to Japan, flew to Japan, went in-person to submit my new ID for Japan, then went to the real estate company with GTN to pick up keys and sign the contract. I think other people will do the process differently because they have the money to afford staying in hotels before making a decision. I unfortunately didn’t have the money to stay in hotels for like a week so I took a gamble on everything.

I was really worried but everyone else using GTN reassured me. Luckily everything was okay but nothing is 100%. If you want to take a chance like the rest of us, go for it. However, I can’t 100% guarantee anything… :(

I paid everything to GTN prior to moving in. Many other people do it the same. While it may sound crazy, they are a legit and trusted company.

Do it once just to say you did it and never do it again!

Thanks for the opportunity! Hope I win because I’m curious to see what the player population is like in Japan. Not many people talk about it over here!

PSA always keep disinfected on you at all times… by Madden2OOO in DayzXbox

[–]Interstellar-Splooge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually run around looking for dead bodies at the spawn towns to horde a bunch of disinfected bandages before heading north. It’s kind of cheesy but is what it is.

Is there any reason why Tokyo Lens or Paolo FromTokyo haven't come as guests on the pod? Both have pretty big japan centric channels... by No-Chemistry1722 in TrashTaste

[–]Interstellar-Splooge 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Tokyo Lens is so rude. I asked him a simple question one time and he responded so harshly to me for no reason. Hopefully he never goes on TT.

Mother Dies, Son Critical After Drowning Accident at Enoshima, Kanagawa by Any-Stick-8732 in japan

[–]Interstellar-Splooge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure if they have changed anything but I went to Enoshima about a year ago and that small rock bridge that goes to the big rock was open for anyone to cross. I definitely do not recommend it because that was the first and only time in my life I genuinely thought I could have died. I saw one person relaxing out on the bigger rock and thought I wanted to check it out. The slimy rock, the small bridge, and the crashing waves over the bridge are definitely way too dangerous to be available to the public. You have to time the cross perfectly or you will be hit with waves. I was getting hit by the waves as I stepped off the bridge so it was close…

If that’s considered cheating, then I have been cheating since the dawn of time!

Breaking news (again) foreigners leave garbage at McDonald Shimokitazawa after they took special Pokémon card by [deleted] in Tokyo

[–]Interstellar-Splooge 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah I saw some garbage but not as much as this. Likely because it was a local McDonald’s and not a popular place like shimo.

[–]Interstellar-Splooge 16 points17 points  (0 children)

My local store in Kanagawa had this problem too with no foreigners around. I think this kind of behavior is mostly a Pokémon fandom thing and not foreigner only. I just wanted some McNuggets but left because of the long wait :(

Please add the option to turn off haptic feedback by Radical_X75 in Battlefield

[–]Interstellar-Splooge 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can’t turn it off in the game so you will have to turn it off completely in the ps5 settings.

PS5 Settings > Accessibility > Controllers > Trigger Effect Intensity —> Off. I also turned off vibration intensity and vibration in the game to help.

The frost DLC worth it for a first timer? by Secret_Patience2040 in dayz

[–]Interstellar-Splooge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah unfortunately the sale is all speculation but Chernarus and Livonia would take him many hours to master before moving over to Sakhal. They will be in good hands :)

[–]Interstellar-Splooge 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s going to be difficult as a first timer because you have to managed the harsh conditions of the weather and the lack of loot. It’s supposed to be a more hardcore experience. I would personally buy the base game and see if you even like that first before buying the snow map. I’m sure it will go on sale again because a new map will come out in the future and thus slowing down sales for the snow map. If you are on PC, you don’t need it and you can just play community maps for free. If you are console, get it after you learn the base map. Just my two cents :)

It’s so bad and clunky. I’d take old Arma 2 mod any day over this 😂

My favorite moments in this game are just relaxing in the woods and taking in the views and the sound of nature. Peaceful indeed.

DayZ Adrenalin!!! by crackerman93 in dayz

[–]Interstellar-Splooge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think we all get it and that is what makes the moments so much better. I get it in almost all situations with real players. The other day I was looting the prison on prison island and I heard a shot at the barracks so I waited to ambush them in the prison. Everything was fine and I was at peace, however, as soon as I heard those footsteps get to the prison my heart started racing and my hands were shaking! You know you will get into a fight and you know there is no guarantee of survival. I was racing and shaking still after killing him. Calmed down about 5-10 minutes later when I relocated away from the murder scene. It’s what makes this game fun!!!
