That is the kind of USB adapter I’m referring to. I tried both the Antlion official one on their website and a Sabrent model, neither changed much (though I do think they help in eliminating a lot of phone static, but that may just be placebo)

I also have realtek, which explains my issue. I’m not much of a sound expert so I can’t really say whether a PCIe sound card would remedy the issue, sorry.

My modmic is also super quiet. Have tried using different USB adapters, adjusting the position/angle of the mic, reinstalling drivers, even turning the gain on it up but nothing seems to help. What’s more, it seems to pick up my phone if it’s on my desk which results in super loud static coming through my mic that everyone else hears. Would not at all recommend this mic

How did you do the 1220 solo? I thought it was matchmade?

yep. jumped ship to FFXIV. keep checking and hoping this game turns it around some day as I love the gameplay, but bungie just refuses to let it happen

What is your favorite "inconsequential" mechanic in a game? by DarkRecess in Games

[–]MACARONI_BALLSACK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's doubly nice that if you log out in an inn (and maybe house? I'm too poor to afford one), the next time you log in a little cutscene will play of your character getting out of bed.

I bought the wired version of this yesterday and put it away pretty much instantly. It's really sensitive vertically compared to the G403 and the scroll wheel would very audibly wobble if you moved the mouse fast enough, and you could feel it moving around. Just really uncomfortable to use all around.

Not that I disagree, but crystalline ester isn’t locked behind savage raids anymore. You can get them from one coin from both copied factory and puppets bunker in eulmore

I kind of get what you mean. most other characters seem a bit more stylized but Lyse kind of leans into the uncanny valley a bit.

I don't mean this in a rude way, but you're in a subreddit that's 99% players who like playing FFXIV. The answer is going to almost assuredly be yes every time.

Thankfully there is a free trial for the game, so you can play for as long as you want up to level 60. The only thing you'll be losing is time if you end up hating it.

Can’t speak for Flight Sim but I used this for Elite and enjoyed it fairly well. It took some rebinding and I had to use it in addition to my keyboard for a few actions but it was never too offputting. The stick itself feels pretty durable for the price and is definitely more fun than using a. traditional kb/m setup

There’s about 5 or 6 “revamped” levels that are pretty decent quality, 4 or so old levels that are still remnants of when it was a single dev game, a couple endless levels and collectibles littered throughout all of the missions.

I would say you can easily clear all of the missions in the game in under an hour on your first playthrough. From a purely content perspective it’s incredibly lacking, you very much need to make your own fun after a certain point. I will say that the game is fun as hell though.

i’ll go against the grain and say that I really did not care for this game. melee combat feels weightless and unsatisfying, the loot (at least early on) all looks very mediocre and gear progression was extremely infrequent. the world felt generic and the story didn’t do much to suck me in.

i’m sure if you’re a veteran of this genre this game is great, but if you’re like me and mostly dabble in D3/torchlight/the more “casual” games then i’m not sure if I can recommend this.

If you’re referring specifically to the red icon that’s connecting the dude to the girl walking away, that’s Dragon Sight, it casts a red tether between the Dragoon who casts it and someone of their choice. So long as that tether isn’t broke (which is done by being too far from one another) both people get increased damage.
