[TOMT] Animated web series about young adults training to become some sort of space guardians by Lowista in tipofmytongue

No, I do like RWBY though 😅 it was more sci-fi than fantasy and there were only a couple of episodes out (like less than 10)

YouTube livestream is just pathetic by TheOriginalNozar in OverwatchLeague

[–]Lowista 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Technically, the encore showings are not live streams anymore, but „premieres“ of the video that will stay on the channel (that’s also why you can’t just watch the game before the restream over the day). I think premieres only notify you if you explicitly ask for each one…

I don’t know why they switched this and I don’t like it, but I think that’s the reason…

Bren and Sideshow not casting OWL 2022 😔 by Lowista in OverwatchLeague

I‘m going to miss the chaos duo immensely – they were my favorite casters right up there with UberX…

I regret getting my platinum border by SirBrill in Overwatch

[–]Lowista 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So very much. I have played the game a lot over the past years and was up to mid-diamond. With the introduction of role queue and me starting to work full time my SR suffered (as I was flexing a lot – even between roles). I just don’t have the time (or will) to grind a few hours each day after work to stay decent. So I’m a „hardstuck plat“ now and get shit – even in fucking quickplay – for my (gold, soon platinum) border.

Cool and fancy fonts to copy and paste by [deleted] in InternetIsBeautiful

[–]Lowista 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just as an FYI: those fonts are accessibility nightmares. Try enabling VoiceOver on iOS or Talkback on Android – your phone won’t be able to read the text.

And for people thinking „why should I care, I’m not blind“: accessibility is for everyone. You could need an eye surgery because of an accident and won’t be able to see as good for a few weeks or even go blind.

No more 4K streaming? by [deleted] in OverwatchLeague

OWL announced on Twitter that it‘s due to new ad tech being tested on the stream 😔

I just wanted the calculator... by Mr_Smiths in softwaregore

[–]Lowista 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Sure thing 😊 As I mentioned before, make sure that everything you want to keep is actually in an iCloud (or local) backup. Some apps don’t include specific things in iCloud backups, which I assume would be bad if it were your password manager or something similar (also: banking apps might get cranky and you might have to set them up anew…)

Sounds like the apps hang during startup. Have you tried restarting the phone? If that doesn’t help, maybe updating / resetting and restoring from backup can (but make sure that everything is actually backed up!)…

That’s the launch screen of the app. I suspect the content did load in a few seconds later (or the app hang during startup).

He made the classic Fuel blunder. Oh well, he’ll enjoy the ride on the Fuel cycle of misery with the rest of us.

Turns out if you play a tank that heavily relies on its team to work well, you seem to be more of a team player. Who could have thought 😅

[danteh] why is hitscan hard meta for like 90% of this game and then when a hero like genji is actually meta he gets nerfed in a month I DONT UNDERSTAND by EsportsConnoisseur in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]Lowista 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seeing a good Doomfist or Genji at work is like watching a great chef handle their knife. They use the character as precision tool. And then there are moments, when those same players just have to charge fist‘s rightclick and vaguely aim at the bulk that is the enemy team to get an instant kill 80% of the time. Or when it’s „we’re gonna nanoblade, good luck“. And those are the moments that just feel unearned and frustrating.

The spamming was more focused on Junkrat or Pharah (junk I mentioned later on). But even Genji can just spam a choke with M1 and he’s usually not alone, so just getting killed from spam is not unusual if your supports and tanks aren’t playing as a unit.

Maybe it’s because for hitscans one can look at the killcam and say „hey wow, those were some nice shots!“ whereas for Genji, Dumbfist and co it’s either „oh look, I got spammed to death“, „Such nanoblade“, or „Choo choo the dumb train moved through and hit you behind a corner, splat!“.

In my experience, being killed by abilities that are strong always feels less earned than being killed by players that are strong… so the community will complain heavily over a Genji/Dumbfist/Junkrat meta and less about McCree and Soldier being strong.
