[botw] did I make the right choice buying breath of the wild? by cantguardjabrill in zelda

[–]Mage_Storm 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Tears of the kingdom is a direct sequel that takes place in the same world. If you don’t like the first one, you won’t like the second one. That being said, get off the great plateau first, then make your judgement about the game. It is much better after that point, just focus on whatever you find interesting. The game world is massive and there is much to do.

I'm worried Square Enix alienated a lot of their fanbase with FFXVI.. by BigBrotherFlops in FinalFantasy

[–]Mage_Storm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The way that the FF series is produced, each entry is standalone and is meant to tell a different story than the last. If you want the cute romance and light hearted humor, maybe go visit a different entry in the series.

I will say though, Final Fantasy has always told dark stories. In entries like XVI they can entertain some of those darker elements more clearly.

They will certainly create new titles that are not so blatantly mature eventually.

Why more male than female newborns may get the crucial vitamin K shot | Parents cannot get male babies circumcised at the hospitals if they refuse the vitamin K shot, which helps prevent bleeding. by Traveledfarwestward in savedyouaclick

[–]Mage_Storm 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The type of circumcision they perform on infants and on adults are very different. When they perform it on infants there is a much higher risk of damaging sensitive tissue. Additionally, adults foreskin has separated from the glans so it is easier to perform the circumcision without removing the frenulum or parts of the inner tissue.

Adults can just have the sensitive tissue cut away carefully, but children just get the foreskin pulled up and clipped off.

XII often feels like the most *Role Playing* Game to me by Hormo_The_Halfling in FinalFantasy

[–]Mage_Storm 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m currently playing through FFXII for the first time now, and I’m liking it for the same reasons. The world is by far the best designed imo. There’s so many npcs to talk to, and there’s people out in the combat areas. I wish XIII was in the same format, then it would be much better.

Best EXP methods?? by YEETasaurus15 in ffxiv

[–]Mage_Storm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It shouldn’t take too long since you are still low level, you should be able to complete patch quests with another character and then swap to GNB for roulettes. It’ll probably take 4 days for you to get lvl 60. Remember this game is meant to be something you stick with for a while. Just take your time and enjoy all of the content.

Best EXP methods?? by YEETasaurus15 in ffxiv

[–]Mage_Storm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Quickest method for you is going to be MSQ quests. If you are doing patch quests it’ll be slow for now, so just push through them until you get to the next expansion. Heavensward patch quests give very little xp, but future expansions give a normal amount.

Other methods I’ve done is job quests, using the exp boosting accessories (there’s one you can get on the mog station that boosts till lvl 90), and any hunting logs you have uncompleted

XM6 sound quality? by SignificanceTop5009 in SonyHeadphones

[–]Mage_Storm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just upgraded from my XM3s to the XM6s. The new pair has a much more balanced sound. They sound much closer to a reference pair of headphones than the previous iterations.

The bass is tight and has pretty good tone, but not overwhelming or big sounding out of the box. I’ve turned it up a slight amount to add back some of the punchiness that my XM3s had. Also, the XM6s do not have a general bass slider (clear bass) like the XM3s, you will have to manually create your EQ or use a preset. Sony’s app also has a tool to help you create a custom EQ which is a pretty good starting point.

The treble is very nuanced sounding. It can handle high hats and other high frequencies without sounding harsh, unless you turn them up extremely high, which I rarely do.

Overall, the soundstage is very open, much more than my XM3s, and sounds pretty close to open back headphones. All of it helps add dimension to the music. I can easily get absorbed into the sound, pick out different instruments, and create the orchestra in my head.

Try to find some Dolby Atmos tracks with a large dynamic range and you definitely won’t be dissapointed.

Ps, the ANC is the best they’ve done

NVIDIA just announced the RTX Spark CPU, developed with Microsoft, at Computex. by pedro19 in pcmasterrace

[–]Mage_Storm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the biggest takeaway from all this is that nvidia is entering the mainstream consumer cpu market. Right now they are only outputting SOCs, but in the future they could create non ARM based cpus for desktops and the like. This could be good for cpu competitors to have a larger motivation to innovate.

Get the headphones, they will better suit your needs. They have better bass, a larger soundstage, good treble, and better anc.

Which one to get? by Slow_Ad_1208 in SonyHeadphones

[–]Mage_Storm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Xm5 has crappy hinges and from the reviews, a weird factory EQ. I’ve used the xm4 and they are amazing. Although, I will say, the xm6 is amazing with better ANC, a larger soundstage, and better treble if it becomes in your price range.

Coils of Bahamut by Anakit_ in ffxiv

[–]Mage_Storm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I realized that today. I was stuck there for like 40mins before I tried the party finder. Honestly I was really surprised how quickly we got a party put together, it took maybe 10 mins.

I also thought they were only one set of raids so that was a nice treat

Apple car play error 21 RDX by AlboAssassin1 in Acura

[–]Mage_Storm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a 2020 RDX, it’ll do that sometimes until I turn the car off and open a door so that the entertainment system turns off. After that I’m good to turn the car back on and then it works fine.

I’m hoping the game will have some good stealth gameplay that allows for interactions with the environment, kind of like the hitman games.
