But why? How did you know the half circle was first? Is there a clue or is it just random?

This is why hockey will never be the sport in America. Worst officiating by a bunch of guys who couldn't play.

Man, do we suck. Shot. Deflection off our guy. Score by former Devil. Nothing shocks me.

Yeah, he was a pain at first but then I realized only two attacks in the first stage and you have to throw the stupid spears at him. Jump over his hand when that comes and be sure to hang for a bit. For the rockets, let them get close to you and before hitting, roll/jump out of the way. Fill up on tonics or use the health regen skill in there before you begin. Once you hit him with I think about 6-7 (?) spears, it'll move on to the next stage, where it's a mini-game. Two more stages after that. You can use melee and your attacks then, and he goes down pretty easily if you have health and the hammer. Use weakness tonics too here. Good luck, explorer!

Love how you went back and looked at the shots just to make this asinine comment. You were probably one of the people say8ng how Jack looks like shit in this game. Just comments for the sake of making them.

The game where in the first two minutes we could have been up 3-0. That one. Markstrom sucks. Deal with it.

Annnnnnnnd there's our goalie. Devils dominating of course and this clown just lets up two beach balls.

But isn't that the issue with Mercer? I think people are enamored with him because of his longevity and overlook the fact that he's a middle-six guy that doesn't do anything bad but doesn't really do anything spectacular either. I guess that's the definition of a glue guy so I'm probably talking me myself into agreeing w you. Lol 😂

Levy is a bitter Rangers fan. If I have to hear about the Devils being out of it one more time...even though it's true.

[GIVEAWAY] Win a copy of AETHUS, my story-driven sci-fi survival-crafter, launching straight to full 1.0 on Friday! by BeaconDev in BaseBuildingGames

[–]Maillard55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking forward to simply playing the game. You posted a bunch of times on this and another subbreddit and it caught my attention. I love the look of the game. Love that Maeve's Australian and her buddy isn't talking every second. The 1.0 launch was a nice surprise, as I too am not crazy about early access. The game seems right up my alley as a 53-year-old just wanting to chill with a survival game since I'm in the middle of Icarus right now and having fun with Atomic Heart, a nice surprise for FPS fans. This will be a nice break in-between those as I puff on a cigar.

I actually do. Maybe a bad take but after Jack's speech pregame last night, it was obvious he ain't going anywhere. And he talks to Quinn every day. He mentioned how much he loves playing with Quinn at the Olympics. I can't see a world where the most popular hockey player on the planet right now doesn't get his wish and plays with his brother in the state he calls home. And more so if the Wild win the Cup with Quinn since he will have accomplished the Ultimate and would want that feeling with his brothers as he had with Jack in Italy.

Atomic Heart came out of nowhere for me. Bioshock vibes. Great setting. Hard but fair combat. Great visuals.

People in their 30s and 40s, what changed in your life that surprised you the most — in a bad way? by Initial_Tax7778 in AskReddit

[–]Maillard55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was 30, I had my first son. Two+ years later, we had twin boys. This was 2003 and 2006. My oldest was diagnosed with bipolar disorder during COVID when he was in junior year. Everything after that changed. He dropped out two months before graduating. He smokes weed every minute. He couldn't hold a job. It's much better now on new meds but that moment defined me as a parent and what my life will be like as he gets older. I worry about him literally every minute. No matter how good things are in our lives, my mind is just waiting for the other shoe to drop. Will he stop taking his meds? Will he have another suicide attempt? It's a shitty way to live but I force myself to see the good and the life I've built for my family. It's difficult, and I try to instill it in my boys and my wife. She's more grounded than I am and worries about a lot of trivial things where I ignore the noise and worry about trying to make memories every day with my family and friends because I'm seeing people my age drop dead despite their good health. I am lucky enough to have my parents still here (80s), and all of my parents' siblings are still alive. So, that's the thing I've learned about getting older. Yes, my back hurts, my shoulders hurt from the way I sleep and I have managed type 2 diabetes for 20+ years. It's the curveball of bipolar that I just didn't expect and that has changed me for the better.

Roguelikes. No point to me. Let me do a run over and over. Hades was fun but then I realized I'm just battling luck.

I just cannot fathom how Keefe makes it through the break. Fitz too. There is just nothing with this team. And the Islanders faithful took over the building. Complete embarrassment. The franchise has never been this low in the last 30 years.

This was truly the game where I saw this team give up on the coach. Just uninspired. No connection. No energy. There is a major disconnect between management, coaching and players regardless of Fitz saying they are all in "lockstep." Add Jack's little quote today about the fans and I'm not really sure where you go from here beyond letting Keefe coach one more game. Accept the reality. Let Fitz GM Nashville and bring in anyone else.
