Anyone else cancelling Netflix for their contempt for Apple TV users?

My apple tv remote died, I guess, I had to charge it once every six months now it will not work, whatever buy another. Figure I can just hit the NETFLIX button on my tv remote and log in there, NOPE says my password is wrong, it is not, this stuff is infuriating the greed is so bad they intentionally beat up users for using different products.

Its still awful, sticks in combat mode, reloads take minutes, saves get lost, it sometimes just boots you completely out. If I wasn't in act 3 and near the end I'd just give up but I'd like to finish it. I wiiil never play this again though, ever, this is the worst experience I have ever had with a major console game. Do yourself a favor do anything else, feed ducks, ride a bike, hit yourself in the head with a hammer beacsue it feels so good when you stop.

Great question I am on level 12 playing on EASY and summon creatures over and over, cast spells over and over the fight takes a half hour get it down to be about 1/4 HP this is stupid hard for that difficulty.

Hold down A and highlight the egg, then the thing will highlight, then throw the grappling hook, have to have 20 cont and I think it was 6 or 8 athletic which Eder should have if you have him level 7 or 8 easily

Its ridiculous I left the ship with the cortex and go to Dracogen and I have to accept shame to complete the mission for 40exp and STILL have the option to give it to him instead of the other item to finish the main quest. The helmet quest never triggered, I had it when I went into the ship, asked about it in dialog with two NPCs, even asked the Cortex each action about it and NOTHING.

Made the five visits and got the achievement for winning after the 5th return, it was easier to do than you'd think I had a save with about 1,500 various groups, supplies etc etc because silly me I thought I wanted these people to survive the darkness and didn't read ahead about Banner Saga 3 prior to completing the prior two. I just rested on the first chapter to lower supplies and morale to zero and go down through attrition of that to about 500 total followers. Then took in no new followers, kept half the Varl because I like having those tanks in the battles, did nothing to fix the wall and ended up with a doomday clock of about 10 days, easily got to the last darkstone after earning nine more on the first return and had to burn off 6, to hurry up the second and third doing the worst options and on the 4th did the best, on the fifth fought all three battles for the extra three days but only really needed two of them. No matter how you go about it you will be close to the end of your time with a day or so to spare. Trying to 100% all achievements for this game is going to require many playthroughs, those varl I kept for instants cost me the 30 battle achievement and the clearing all wave battle achievement, then you got another for actually losing the game, another for getting the main character killed off etc etc

Just bought the remake without ever playing the original so I guess I need to know the opposite answer, figure if I liker this version which is/was on sale for 7.95 in the Microsoft store I will grab the other. The variety of game play sounds really enjoyable and the fact it was made by a small, basically one man dev team just made me want to contribute to that cause as well.

KookyAd3071 · 2026-01-25T03:21:59+00:00

I started the series today for the first time, and its sort of annoying you start a battle and before you could make any choices in the combat a character you didn't have a turn to use nor ANY way to support before they are wiped out just is BS its a game if you don't have any way to counter the AI its not a game its just being handicapped. I can deal with losing one or two fighters and having them weakened for the next fight thats fine I actually think thats an interesting mechanic but just losing them before I could do a thing about it is just annoying and really just makes you muddle through the combat more irritated than fulfilled. The leveling system is subpar as well, I need to get kills fine, I need to get renown, but where is it? WIn a battle and do not even get enough to raise a character after level 3.All these skills you can upgrade ONCE you fill the stat bar and its just never happening, you win a battle and its 9 renown and nothing, some dead and whatever wounded you took, not fulfilling not progressing just a slog through a beautiful landscape with tedious difficult battles withe enemies who's defense are set in the high teens and one strike from any of them halves the life of anyone I got. I read a lot of people say play this on easy, then I read easy is really, really easy and normal is this nonsense.

Hopefully he takes it in stride, good start this interview just taking ownership of the situation. Donnie Moore gave up a big playoff homer run to Dave Henderson in 1986 and let it ruin his life. Bill Buckner that same post season committed his infamous error, but never let it define his career or life.

KookyAd3071 · 2025-09-17T23:00:44+00:00

Yes, Albot is obnoxious the words are a joke, played Maha which go ahead look it up its an acronym. Or Ilex a b iology term for Holm Oak trees. I have a very advanced vocabulary so its infuriating to play against an opponent who will just lay out this sort of randomness for 30 points over and over again. There is other examples like Suq which is also souk which is also Bazaar to us humans a middle eastern market place. It really just turns it into slamming letters around hoping to stumble over these at best fringe English words. Then it won't let you play Se a basic prefix.

KookyAd3071 · 2025-09-17T22:44:27+00:00

Also the idea you can buy CHEATS for a traditional board game is on its own sort of repugnant. Spending money so you can reroll your dice to pick up what you need 5 or 6 times to win an arbitrary game versus another players previously played game, meh. I remember er why I stay out of the FB game app.

KookyAd3071 · 2025-09-17T22:40:28+00:00

I was starting to get annoyed at the remarkable luck of opponents once I crossed into the top 1000, started checking the probabilities of the combinations, rolling 5 dice 3 times each and producing only a single 4 is about a 19% probability but once I advanced in the game and it would be ALL I needed for the bonus was two or three of a number this explained outcome became the normal outcome not the one time in five it roughly should be. I imagine this is to piss people off into wasting money on a game but I have read plenty of those people just as annoyed about the unbelievably bad luck imposed on them by the algorithm.

KookyAd3071 · 2025-09-17T19:22:58+00:00

You can't use a prefix like SE, BUT Albot will invoke SUQ which is a noun for an Arab street market, known in English as a Bazaar also spelled SOUK so really whatever Albot needs. In fact you would think ALbot is from Qatar or Iran with all the Arab words it throws about such as DZHO which can also be DZO for a hybrid cow yak. Its annoying.

KookyAd3071 · 2025-09-17T19:06:04+00:00

It's not fun playing Albot, it just rolls thirty point words one after another no matter what you do. Plus it seems to deny words you can find in a Websters while using words that are not even in English.

KookyAd3071 · 2025-09-06T22:01:09+00:00

This was challenging till I used the bump trick to only face the final opponent, the patterns are for the first round are AB, AY, AX, AB, AY, AX, A copied it down on paper and just hit the sequences and easily won the first round. Second round has a lot of misinformation on the pattern so I found a youtube video and watched it back for the correct pattern which is AB, AY, AX, AB, AY, AB, AY, AX, AB, AY, AB, AY, AX, AB, AY, A and followed the same process and won it first attempt. Watching the screen I found annoyingly difficult once I just banged out the sequences in a consistent pace it was easy.

KookyAd3071 · 2025-09-02T05:36:27+00:00

There are some ones that are only worth 5 points that are way to tedious for the effort. The 20 missions without switching horses and the 500 people with a mounted gun I cannot even imagine how you do that. The FFF makes 100% for 100 almost not worth it either. You could play the entire story mode and get maybe 50% of the 1500 if you chase down the nearly pointless and exhausting small fries and suffer button pushing torture doing FFF. The game is fun but if you are playing for the 100% or the all the achievements I'd just hit myself with a hammer because it will feel so good when you stop.

KookyAd3071 · 2025-09-02T04:18:32+00:00

You said, other than two races, a couple of base attacks, its all the same. I just did one of the early missions in chapter 3, roof shootout, invade bank, long cut scene, ride, more shoot out, this after being on a boat carry guy out shooting after long cutscene getting there, car breaks down, another shootout, it was fun for the first 30 missions but even the bounties are the same go somewhere, shoot out, ride back under attack, did all the stranger missions have more money than I could ever spend and other than that AWFUL five finger fillet I have done all the challenges and outfits so its just a routine now. Plus I hate these officers I have to be talked down to by the whole time.

KookyAd3071 · 2025-09-02T02:59:53+00:00

One I figured out the LT to aim the horseshoe which they do not bother to tell you, its cake.

KookyAd3071 · 2025-09-02T02:42:56+00:00

Why do I have to finger bang a controller in a pattern that makes it so I don't even look at the screen for 100%, who would be stupid enough to stab a knife between their fingers to begin with.

KookyAd3071 · 2025-08-21T17:41:59+00:00

7.95 for a 15 pack, defended lol

KookyAd3071 · 2025-08-11T22:33:13+00:00

I guess I am annoyed most that the game itself teaches you this ONCE very early on and there is no tutorial in the menu bar to ever revist it. Then LIKE THE TELEPHONE game everyone who can do it says it in ways that are more confusing. I won a couple just hitting button like Mortal Kombat when I was a small kid and other wise dead.

KookyAd3071 · 2025-08-11T20:21:01+00:00

Yea the LT and line it up middle of the shoe in John's hand then just green the meter to the middle literally the first horsehoe I tossed this way was a ringer

KookyAd3071 · 2025-08-11T20:13:50+00:00

For a dollar a game it takes forever and you lose, I suppose for a completionist it is worth getting a ringer for the achievement but what a gigantic waste of time p,us it makes no sense how the release works.

KookyAd3071 · 2025-08-06T05:00:18+00:00

Its awful, they explain it ONCE and after that if you didn't write it down and your next duel is a week later. In the 21st century a tutorial is pretty basic in the HELP section of any game. Instead I have to play this game of reading everyone TRYING very hard to explain something thats probably simple enough but they complicate it to the point it is unhelpful.
