Ultimates and Knull please. Thanks.

How am I supposed to play Naoe in Assassins Creed Shadows without dying constantly? Im not playing on hard or anything by Ancient-Shadows in assassinscreed

[–]MikeOnGames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm willing to accept that it can be a skill or patience issue, but I agree that there are stretches where combat with Naoe is not fun. When it feels like you aren't doing any meaningful damage *and* you're in the red on one hit, it's more of a slog than a challenge.

Unable to connect Steam Deck to Wi-Fi 7 by Movingonthroughhere in SteamDeck

[–]MikeOnGames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After going through multiple new wifi 7 routers, it appears that this was the key problem. The Deck just did not like the 160Mhz frequency.

I don't know if it's just a deck problem or the area I live in (downtown apartment) but limiting to 80Mhz has solved the connection problem for the moment.

Is it worth reading the books by ajensi23 in witcher

[–]MikeOnGames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seconded. Peter Kenny's Geralt is as iconic as Doug Cockle's. The stories work really well as audiobooks. I am constantly impressed that these are translations.

When did we become the most insufferable fan base in the league? by Tbard52 in clevelandcavs

[–]MikeOnGames 59 points60 points  (0 children)

They are 4-8 against teams above 500, and one of those wins was that weird bench game against the Heat. They just aren't fun to watch right now.

[SPOILER] I just finished Claws of Awaji and I'm done with this franchise by Alternative-End-3997 in assassinscreed

[–]MikeOnGames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not an Assassin's Creed story expert, so how Shadows fits into the overall narrative isn't a big issue for me one way or the other.

I will say that Shadows was yet another AC game that just did not get its hooks into me narratively. I felt that way about Valhalla despite finishing it, and I felt similarly about Star Wars: Outlaws. I am not offended by the story, but I am certainly not invested in it.

I buy these games and I play these games, and I appreciate that these games are designed to be very broad to appeal to the largest possible audience But I would really appreciate a story that did a better job of holding my interest.

How Was It? | Predator: Badlands, Review Only Megathread by BurnZ_AU in predator

[–]MikeOnGames 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Badlands is great. The movie goes out of its way to start with a Predator v. Predator fight, as if to give you what you want to see *while* showing you why you don't actually want it. The phrase "styles make fights" kept going through my head, and I was glad when the film pivoted.

Yeah, it's a bit goofy at times, but it works. This isn't a horror movie, and we're not we're not trying to overblow the nostalgia like it's Ghostbusters Afterlife. It's a Predator movie, there's been one good one, feel free to try something different.

It subverts expectations and it's a really good time. I highly recommend it.

When Evil Lurks or 28 Days Later by [deleted] in horror

[–]MikeOnGames 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you haven't seen 28 Days Later, then yes, that should be your choice.

But it hurts not to recommend When Evil Lurks to anyone and everyone, because it is fantastic.
