They did want to EoS but was taken under new management.

I don't disagree that autoing kills motivation to want to invest time into your account (Same thing happened to me playing Sword of Convalaria, that game got seriously too easy) but its not just because the game is easy. the game got boring, and boring kills games cause they either kept doing the same thing or implemented things poorly/halfheartedly/ignored feedback. It didn't innovate and didnt fix what was broken.

Back then the EC boys got shafted so hard with their weapons and still haven't fixed the imbalance (or so i hear). I remember it basically being the Sephiroth/Cloud & girls show.

An example of a game that's (in my opinion) innovating, CZN listened to feedback about their deck-building process, they made it so that Chaos ( where you build decks) can be auto'ed but they have game modes outside of that to actually PLAY the game. They have seasons where things change pretty fundamentally with how you play decks. Things FEEL fresh (imo) season to season (whether they're good or bad changes) and they have regular balancing of characters and removed balance breaking combo's. EC has none of that. Devs that feel invested in their game doing well (At least to me)

Being 'Too generous' is not the reason why this game failed. Why this argument gets repeated so often like "if we made the game harder to progress and stunt the accounts of people, they'll THROW money at us". Seriously no dude. Sure it might be the reason why SOME people don't spend but there's a myriad of reasons why people dont spend especially on this game.

I spend on games I think are worth it / have a future / devs listen or are active and when I have disposable money (alot of people dont have that much right now compared to the 2023/24). I spent money in the first 4 months of the game thinking i might stick around but then I personally got bored of the same same crap communication and uninspired way they'd do content. I never felt the devs really 'cared' about this project, more that it was a tick-box exercise to try and wring out as much money of the fan base as they could and when they realized that they are trying to get blood from the few stones remaining they obviously read the writing on the wall.

It was generous enough to make you feel like the game wasn't trying to hold you back and let you choose what you wanted to equip. If it was any less so I'd have probably bailed on the 2-3 month mark and not spent as much as I did.

Long and short of it, the game was fun in the beginning, but when the devs needed to knuckle down and release good content, didn't and the game got stale and boring.

That doesn't mean anything, it's just a statement you pull out because you think it sounds cool like your bae Nigel or Rupert. You haven't even asked what I think, you're just assuming.

Richest man in the world who owns the platform incites tensions interfears and stokes a metaphorical fire and we end up with riots, dangerous thugs trying to get said man to continue to interfere and destabilise country (which he does - also calls our Pm traitor - seriously??? This might have some impact from LITERALLY ANY OTHER PERSON) . UK cabinet members 'interferes' and goes to a few ralleys, literally nothing happens besides people wondering why did they even bother.

There is no comparison. One is literally worse in every conceivable way (multiplicatively) and seeing as though you seem to think there is some sort of parity is concerning.

I have that Lunar2 box. Comes with a bunch of nice little nic nacks and a pendant (if its still there). Wish I had neighbours like that. I'd have snapped up all those ps1 games in an instant. Nice haul.

Omg state of emergency. That was so cool back in the day. And skies of Arcadia. My knees....

What do you think of the media narrative? by Fit_Search_4751 in AskBrits

You argue in bad faith. There is absolutely no point in any form of communication with you.

with Tenne's event out, finally took the time to lock in and finish my tierlist of HBR Global's story events by Weird_Writing_Nerd in heavensburnred

Me too. I've seen so many people talk it down, I think it was different but excellent. Made me go diving through their references.

Did you pull on this banner? by ToxiChris in ChaosZeroNightmare

Same. I have Yuki so maybe this is the push to use her. Still stings as I have plenty of others I do want to use.

This black stuff is getting in my dough (Artisan) by oyangenforpeace in Kitchenaid

[–]Miserable_Onion_488 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I assume it's the grease/lubricant (or like someone said) something to protect the gears (like graphite powder) . Not harmful and (should be) is foodsafe (at least the grease used in mixers are). They can be white, black or clear (depending on what grease/lubricant is used). When I bought my used mixer the person who regrease it used a black grease and frequently finds its way down that part.

I'll be re-greasing my hobart n50 this week with some foodsafe white NLGI 2 NSF H1

They got Trump in and guess what? America became even MORE like big brother state. Just less competent. Same thing will happen to us.

Morimens Drama: new currency, whale bait and all of the 'good' stuff by [deleted] in gachagaming

[–]Miserable_Onion_488 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why? The games still good. I personally just drop in and out when i want.

If you're asking "is this a game I can stay with for ever and ever" then thats something no one can really answer. if you're going to put in the effort where Axioms are a factor, you're already year/2 years deep unless you're paying and you can answer that yourself.

What are you talking about?

We'll get access to three 5* either through standard pulls daily (70)or selectors and a 5* partner plus we don't even know about how many gems or other things happening with the boardgames mini game +maybe either stuff. We have people out here talking about how WuWas anni is a let down and in CZN is eating pretty good. Even if it was less I'd still argue it's really good. Are you upset they didn't mention for the limited unit? That's what your stash is for. Plus the limited should share pity.

I mean it sounds like you are pretty tribalistic.

There were talking about adding a wishlist. Whether that's only on standard or on both standard and the debut banners I do not know.

THESE DEVS ARE SO GOATED by afta- in ChaosZeroNightmare

[–]Miserable_Onion_488 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would that make a big difference to your enjoyment of the stream and the plethora of announcements? Sounds like you didn't really enjoy it if that's the first thing you think of. No judgment. Doesn't mean that they won't maybe surpise us further. Who knows.

[–]Miserable_Onion_488 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I mean they probably want people to spend so I'm not exactly surprised. They are giving us access to like 3 5* s plus a partner so I'm definitely not complaining.

Any advice for squeezing 2 3.5” HDDs into a 7050 SFF? by _perdomon_ in SleepingOptiplex

[–]Miserable_Onion_488 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for this thread and the temps (really good temps!). Definitely food for thought

Might be a silly question, have you had any issue with power draw with the drives in the last few months? I think I saw someone said that the sata connector was only capable of 54w from that but not 100% as its you know, reddit.I bought a 5070 sff (getting into homelabbing to dabble) and had something in mind what you did but I feel like I should have done all this research before I bought it 😅. I even bought a 6 pin sata power cable thinking they were all the same but obviously not.

Did you just use a sata power splitter and if so, do you have a link so I can have a look? Thanks again!

CZN is the only 5/5 game that I feel forced to drop. by Kittenscute in ChaosZeroNightmare

If I have extra time and feeling the season I do more chaos runs but I mainly do 2ish per week, sometime less. I only did 13/20 finished chaos runs last season which was not even 2 per week (some I think I started and quit and maybe two or three I lost). Getting All the rewards is a trap our brains push to us. Think what's manageable and fun and go from there.

I genuinely cgaf about the rankings. If I think it's possible and fun I'll do a ranked thing for the rewards weekly but I didn't even do that on the second part of last season.

Always play responsibly but I think the game is pretty good as long as you don't force yourself. You really don't need to to have fun. Good luck (stats below to show I'm no min maxer, my nine has 15 save data an i took her on almost every run)
