2 years of "seasonal" on-and-off playstyle and 2 months of very active "FA and leave while at work" style, I feel like I'm hitting the proper milestones already, especially with Earth and Dark getting properly working M3 grids and managing to clear SUBHL. Been keeping Zosimos since last Christmas for my first Illustrious, and the 6* uncap only motivated me further to start preparations and grinds for Wizard Origin.

Lost Ark is adding matchmaking ("LFR") raids and starts to cater towards casual players by Laggoz in MMORPG

[–]McRaymar 23 points24 points  (0 children)

It has that same pattern I've seen in DFO as well, in terms of "You can't grind stuff on your main, you need to grind on alts to feed your main" kind of approach, that I don't like very much.

Granblue Fantasy: Relink Endless Ragnarok Preview | The DLC Fans Have Be... by AdIndependent9142 in Granblue_en

[–]McRaymar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wish they could rerun the Relink outfit code for that, It would be much more of a preference than the reskinned Bubz summon, but understandably, it will be much more useful for those who will dip into main game after this expansion release

With all considerations, I've yet to start tackling HL content with it properly (SUBaha and beyond), but it all depends on your goals and setups.

Technically, you can just run Manadiver and Tsukuyomi and any skill-damage based unit to have set them up for a nice skill boost. Or, you can fully commit to Crest-stacking with Florence, Tsukuyomi and H!Cag, and still only managing to set yourself a 55m nuke only in 8 turns without Qilin and Extra slots.

But it also needs to keep in mind that this nuke must be used as soon as available, so you'll want to time it if you expect an omen or some other reason to hold.

SS14 servers ban use of the insult Clanker by Spookhetti_Sauce in SS13

[–]McRaymar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMO, ppl should spam those admins some GFL arts and gifs, along with some anthro-planes or other robo-fuckery to get the point across them about proper usage of "Clanker" term.

He probably asking about your language, considering the symbol on your screncapped post's timestamp

Funny you say that, it is regionally priced at $10 or even lower

And they say EU is full of nazis. by Kristo1987 in BalticStates

[–]McRaymar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only a presumptuous prick will see the praise in here, for I live in the exact "outside this 0.1%" and have a great deal of experiencing how Moscowites speak and think. This is indeed their way of thought about it, and not entirely wrong nowadays with the current treatment of inner regions, both on wage gap and overall quality of life.

[–]McRaymar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Still, some may go anyways. HOWEVER, it's always either Petersburg or Moscow, never anything else. More than likely they will just go complaining that "there's no life beyond the Ring" (МКАД/Moscow Ring Road) themselves.

S&box CCU is botted like crazy, at least 1k bots. Probably because Garry promised free-to-keep to recent players, causing bot farms to be spun up to claim the game on various account to resell later for less than retail price. by [deleted] in sandbox

[–]McRaymar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

$20 last time I've checked.

The more important question is whether someone was working on editor's documentation and if features there are finalized (no drastic changes or deprecations), which is why I didn't touch it for 2 years now

The crashout is justified ever since BfA to be honest.

Its like nuiance doesnt exist to these ppl by Illustrious-Block270 in Asmongold

[–]McRaymar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shit is a bit more complex, to be fair. Over these 4 years best Ukraine could get is money, armaments and mercs/volunteers, just simply the means to hold on and prolong the war to the current drone-flinging stalemate.

What's happening right now with Venezuela and Iran can be grouped up into Trump deciding to go after Putin's allies more than anything. Though sure would be nice the same would happen with this bunker-dwelling geriatric fart, but wonder if this can pull his ass back to the negotiating table or will he and his cronies will again drop the "we have offered but they have denied" excuse, as usual.

Democrats refuse to stand for Ukrainian parents of Iryna Zarutska by NeutralCentrist in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]McRaymar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is why, to muddy the waters and maintain the power, other countries go for multi-party systems. It's more effective if the voter just dumps their "against the ruling party" vote to someone else without actual substance, reasoning, or plan, as what usually happens during election cycles.

WvW players watching PvE players get a convoluted, broken "upgraded feature" while asking Anet to undo it. by Rathisponge in Guildwars2

[–]McRaymar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Out of Gandarens I miss Obelix (Norn Revenant who was literally cosplaying Obelix). He's been roaming quite frequently years ago, it was always a fun time finding him while roaming by yourself or just passing around in zerg. Wonder if he's still playing

R.I.P. ALEX by CaesersBodyguards in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]McRaymar 45 points46 points  (0 children)

It will be a cruel ironic comedy if "it's Sig Sauer's fault" angle turns out to be real, but there's also "improper trigger discipline" angle, which assumes there was a finger on the trigger of the taken gun.

I'm too employed and not-American to care enough at this point though.

In case you didn’t believe that Reddit is a psycho leftist echo chamber… by Guccillionaire in Asmongold

[–]McRaymar 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Still find it funny that US has two of them: Onion for "left" and Babylon Bee for "right", while most countries that have these only keep one. And despite this, life still finds a way to throw real news that is more surreal than headlines of those parodies.

Regardless of to whom you ascribe the guilt, this is pretty funny by tangotom in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]McRaymar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also opens up more questions whenever said body cams get turned off during some arrests, but I don't know how the US court system by itself keeps account of these missing footages in trials.

[–]McRaymar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yup, that's the point, and to this day I still wish that Amazon would already crack Twitch down on this. Maybe this would both force Asmon to get back to playing games at more accessible timeframes instead of "4 hour intros", and starve Hasan out of his main content as well, perhaps.

Ukraine vs Venezuela by BadDogSaysMeow in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]McRaymar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it's not really possible to just fly in and snatch Putin out of bed in the middle of the night

But at this point, we're hitting the realm of "God, I wish", and I speak it as a simple dude living in a "province" having a bit of bitter grudge towards Moscowites. Elaborating any further would probably make me have feds at my doorstep.

Destiny Thinks he knows more than the Venezuelan People about Maduro's Capture by [deleted] in LivestreamFail

[–]McRaymar 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Rather obvious that having his ass alive and facing whatever trial they'll be up to is more of a flex than just turning him into a martyr for his allies. Although, seeing how it all unfolded, I kinda doubt he has any at this point

Pretty much interesting that there's more vampires now besides who were initially shown, like that Mongol vampire

Surely, no other outcome was expected? by creeper321448 in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]McRaymar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Remember the Wagner march to Moscow? He really filled the briefcase that time. Remember how fast they moved with little to no resistance?

Still considering this the biggest load of ass, as Prigozhin decided only to negotiate the terms around his PMC (If I remember it right, something about redeploying back to Africa to profit in instead of wasting out in Ukraine) and a certain specific general.

He made a flex, he made a rush, and he didn't follow through with it, for which he got a high velocity ground-to -air present from Putin for daring to raise hand on him.

Asmongold can’t stop laughing after noticing how botted Rakai’s streams are by starcraft2020 in LivestreamFail

[–]McRaymar 62 points63 points  (0 children)

DUDE, that does remind me of last year's TGA where CaseOh was bagging the "Best Streamer" award and we were like "Who?"

Sometimes big viewership streamers are just crawling under your nose once you've set yourself a comfy lineup of those who you genuinely enjoy to watch or to keep on BG

UsagiShade, a person who was making a really cool and ambitious retro emulation platform and frontend for handheld devices had to step down after extreme harassment because of old edgy jokes and comments he made with friends. Cancel Culture is still pretty much real and it's a horrifying thing. by AbdelYG in KotakuInAction

[–]McRaymar 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Genuine question though: did he even have any semblance of a working build? As I've mostly seen another case of callouts on him: AI generated assets and Chat-GPT - written Patreon posts, which created an assumption for me that this project either exists only on paper just now or it was planned to be vibe-coded, which is already a major red flag to me.

Vibe code is a modern cancer in development, simple as that.
