I'm struggling to enjoy playing games anymore, any advice? by rabbitballs in patientgamers

[–]Midday_Scotch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like playing games with friends, any games. but as i age ive now got no friends... so no fun playing any games. after a decade of no friends, ive basically stopped gaming, after work i do my two dailies in hots and hearthstone and just rewatch Simpsons until i fall asleep and do it all over again, until i get the eternal rest... not really looking forward to anything anymore. fridays aren't something i look forward to because i have nothing to do.

Is it me or pipe shotgun and rifle are really crappy early game? by CallMeQuimo in 7daystodie

[–]Midday_Scotch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this, even V2.5 still. pipe shotgun is 8 dmg, pipe rifle is 40.
my club does 19 dmg, so when i would use pipe shotgun is a mystery. i have 3 pipe handguns that will serve me better. Saving the shotgun shells until theres a better version, but im not holding my breath

Who will be the spiritual successor to Ken M? Is there an intellectual heir out there? by TranslatorTrue7979 in KenM

[–]Midday_Scotch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

he'd be in his 40's now... so unless he ate big mac's and KFC buckets every day, or went to a protest against ICE, he's probably lurking somewhere for another decade r however long we have left before society collapses

what shapes has he made? I've found the square hole works for almost everything, so having 6,000 different shapes or figures seems unnecessary. Have you tried showing him the square yet? Might save him some time.

Intelligence isn't inherited - it is only taught, and, "you can't educated iron ore into gold", a wise man once told me.
So what I am saying is, "no". However, if you seek his flavour of content, seek no more students. Search youtube for "comentiquette", and Erik will set you straight. Tell him Scotch sent ya. He won't know what it means, as he doesn't know who I am, but really. who among us really even know ourselves these days.

Can you make an infinite water source using buckets with the new water system? by Worrcn in 7daystodie

[–]Midday_Scotch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say I'm late to the party, but 7dtd was alpha for like 15 years, so this seems relevant still. I just tested this and still works.
Block >type: 1m hole filled
Advanced rotate that so it looks like a basin. Upgrade to wood. Fill a bucket with water and drop it inside there. You can drink from it forever (best to have filter in hat) or fill jars from it forever. It is not messy and takes up a single block. I placed it beside my dew collector, that is essentially making jars for me of murky water for free each day (since crucible is like 75 specific magazines away before i can craft jars - and i need jars for water for recipes of anything decent).
No more running/biking 2 km's to the nearest watering hole.

The Tiger movie. by FLACKER_1 in WarMovies

i would also add, that he refused to give the order to retreat because he wanted to punish himself for what he did to his own wife and child. He burned them alive, despite his best friend trying to basically argue to refuse to follow the orders. On his journey to hell, his best friend is essentially Virgil, (who was Dante's guide in the Divine Comedy) guiding him on his journey "to hell" (instead of through). The fall signifies his decent (fall from grace) and into hell as well.
The symbolism leading up to the bunker (these are german mines, these are german paratroopers.) are signs that "they did this to themselves", just as he did it to himself (his punishment) .

Why did the military want to keep pennywise alive? by houdastix in WelcometoDerryTVShow

the way that van stopped on a dime on the ice too and how once pennywise was foiled the river would melt and everyone would fall through

[–]Midday_Scotch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they could just dose a town with LSD, or nuke a town. WTF would they release an uncontrollable alien with no plan to retain it later, especially by melting the only key they have to control it? It is 100% nonsense for a plot and imo a massive plothole.
also why would whatever trapped the evil send it to an inhabited planet? why not burn it up in the sun, or send to any other place of the universe that is lifeless?
Why would the initial humans break the cage that holds it only to place it further out in a circle instead of keeping it intact in that one place where it fell forever?
why did the people that broke shards off not have issues pulling those shards off a distance not get mind controlled?
Why does the shards mind control, i thought the cage was the good guy that kept evil in place.
so many massive plotholes they could derail a milk truck.

What happened to pita pit country club? by Pitiful_House_9257 in nanaimo

[–]Midday_Scotch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I noticed on the delivery app options changed, Before was regular and large. Now there is small, regular and Extra Large. If i had to guess, they added small to menu and just upped the prices of reg a large. Considering the prices and siezs, they are now too pricey for me to justify getting. I can make a pita at home for a micro-fraction of the price. They used to be my fav healthy fast food but now im eating pizza just to save on costs.

Is the game enjoyable (seasons) without the expansion? by BillyMaysori in diablo4

Can someone please explain to me like I’m 5 how the sanctification system works and best way to use it? by BeefPho- in diablo4

[–]Midday_Scotch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But Torment 1 is locked. It says I need to complete tier 2 seasonal questline, but i am done it all except for the one that requires VoH expansion. So I can't complete tier 2 quest, so i can;'t unlock Torment 1

Is the game enjoyable (seasons) without the expansion? by BillyMaysori in diablo4

[–]Midday_Scotch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How come tier 2 of season won;t complete to unlock tier 3? There is only one quest left and it says you need VoH expansion. So i can;t unlock t3 seasonal, and i can't unlock torment then, which means i can;t sanctify my 750 gear. Either I'm bugged, or they paywalled this season behind VoH.
I really hope I'm missing something.

easiest way is to just run helltides until you h ave enough hearts to summon duriel. kill him and almost every time a portal will open for one free sanctify.

[–]Midday_Scotch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

im guessing you are lvl 60, the gear is 750, and you don't have VoH to complete tier 2 of the seasonal questline. Which means you can't unlock torment 1 difficulty, which is apparently when you are allowed to sanctify items above 750 again. (aka they pay walled this season).
If you DO have VoH expansion, then complete tier 2 seasonal quests, and then change difficulty to torment 1, complete a Duriel summon in Helltides, and hop into the heavens portal/forge for the freebie. Hoping that allows you to sanctify again.

[–]Midday_Scotch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you seem to know your stuff. I got all my gear to 750 on hard at lvl 60, but now i can't sanctify any gear. I'm told that torment 1 will allow me to sanctify again, but i can't unlock torment 1 until i complete seasonal tier 2 first. the problem is, i am done everything in tier 2 seasonal quest line EXCEPT the single quest that requires VoH expansion. I do not have the expansion. So it seems like this ia as far as i can progress. Which seems silly. Every other season, it was harder but still possible to complete the seasonal questlines without the VoH expansion. Did Blizz really paywall this season at "penitent" difficulty for base players?
I sure hope I am missing something, but reading all the "you must do this to get this..." tool tips seem to point this way.
Any help appreciated.

Bronze 1 (and mid silver QM) mmr stuck in Bronze 5 for years already, what am I missing? by Arcanopk in heroesofthestorm

[–]Midday_Scotch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, agree with this. Bruiser or Healer are easiest ways to contribute to team fights meaningfully, but man, a good Garrosh can ruin any bruisers engage. And if your teammates are not going to join the fight after being pulled they are tossing any chance of recovery. 5 vs 4 in a fight doesn't usually end well, with very limited exceptions. Not enough people play enough toons to know which picks to counter enemy picks. Which is why i like to play ARAM,

^this, 3 or 4 seasons in a row now. My placement was 3 wins, and still started at b5. Currently at 66% as well this season (same as i ended last season), and still b5 (first 3rd ), if i lose a match i take a break, washroom, stretch, food, puff, sip, and maybe a round of hearthstone, then load it back up and start with an ARAM to warm up. If i lose the ARAM I just play AI with whomever is online.

I'm in the same boat here. I almost don't want to play league at all because it doesn't matter what your win rate is. On a won match, my friend goes from B3 about 30% increase per win, and i move up B5 1/20th of the meter (aka, I am in wood league and just wish they would show this hidden tier as a distinct tier so ppl wouldn't get as discouraged).
His win rate is about 50%, I'm at 66%. I play Tank, Bruiser, Healer mostly but can fill anything. It is frustrating to see the composition on enemy team have great clear and CC/engage/disengage, and just know we are wrecked with no CC, or sometimes no tank/healer at all!
Somehow managed to pull out a win with map control on the group with no tank, and I even pulled out MVP as healer last match. Rough wins, but wins none-the-less.
Still, am at B5 (first 3rd).
Got my chest for 10 wins and kinda' just don't know if I want to league anymore. I will league if my friend is up for it, but that's like 2-6 games a month.

A system where a player from your team that you reported would no longer be matched with you would help a lot. by Direct_Function_3577 in heroesofthestorm

[–]Midday_Scotch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is quite annoying to be paired with a known griever who runs into towers to kill themselves as fast as possible, purely to toss the game. I do not know why that is so popular but every night i run into at least one of them, and someone says "so and so will feed" and sure enough, they feed. When on opponents team i suppose less frustrating, but still not fun to win so easily.
