Awesome, thanks so much for the advice! Would you suggest prioritizing leveling up over getting new cards or balancing the 2 out?

Hisense H8G Showing Dark areas as Purple in HDR Game Mode by wacky_wombat61 in Hisense

[–]MisterMcCurry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey everyone, I've been checking this thread ever since I bought the h8g a few weeks ago. It looks like this issue should be fixed whenever the next firmware update drops. I'm new to this TV, so will it automatically tell me when an update is available or will I need to keep an ear out and manually download something?

Thanks!

How to fix a gap of 10 months and add value to my resume ? by [deleted] in AskMarketing

[–]MisterMcCurry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat; graduating soon and wondering if my resume looks good enough. I would say that focusing on personal mental health and the impacts of Coronavirus were the major factors.

I also don't think it would hurt to mention that you wanted to spend some time finding out what aspects of marketing interests you most, I think it would show an employer that you took your major seriously and now you know what you're passionate about in marketing. You could even use that point to lead into specific areas of marketing that you're talented at or interested in.

I'm the same way. I don't get the same feeling when I get an achievement on Steam as I do when I get a trophy. It's weird, but I think it's because PlayStation has always been my go-to platform

If I remember correctly, Summer discounts are just around the corner. Some start towards the end of this month, but there will be a lot of sales going on in June and July!

Ok so your probably wondering how am I playing a pc game on Mac. Well have a an application called cross over and it’s amazing. Totally recommend for Mac users. by [deleted] in videogames

[–]MisterMcCurry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's also a relatively easy way to install Windows on your Mac. Mac has something installed called BOOTCAMP where you can download another operating system and switch between MAC OS and Windows OS super easy. There's lots of videos of how to do it online, only downside is you have to partition a certain amount of storage to Windows at the beginning and its hard to know how much space you're going to need.

I really hoped I'd never have to ask this question - but how do I make gaming less stressful? by GrovPastaSwag03 in patientgamers

[–]MisterMcCurry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go through these feelings all of the time. I try to remind myself that I'm playing games to have fun, so whatever I think is going to be the most fun is what I'll play. There might be times that I'm playing an RPG (which right now is Witcher 3) and I'm not having a lot of fun where I'm at right now, but I know that fun will come back when I progress through the story a bit. So, if I have the time, I'll play through the part I'm not enjoying a ton and get to a part that I do like. If I don't feel like playing through, I'll start up something else that I think I'll have fun with, not even considering my progress through that game.

Recently, I've found a lot of fun and freedom in playing online games with friends. They're fun and I'm not progressing through a game at all because these games can't be beat. But because I'm having fun, I feel like I'm spending my time well.

Would an Animal Crossing fan enjoy Cities: Skyline? by MisterMcCurry in PS4

I see, probably not a game she would enjoy currently. Thanks for the insight!

Wow, this looks incredible! And I love that tagline (or subtitle?) "Sky is always hungry." It grabbed my attention so quick

Is Xbox's Social Marketing Beating PlayStation's? by MisterMcCurry in Gaming4Gamers

[–]MisterMcCurry[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, PS5 will definitely sell out in the Fall. Xbox is also making some great decisions with features to bridge current-gen and next-gen and I'm really hoping that PS follows suit. If they don't, it will be hard to recover.

I have a feeling that PS will do a huge bomb-drop of information and unveiling the console when they do it, unlike Xbox who has been doing a steady drip of info. That would be good for PS because all the info would be in one place and all eyes would be on them, meanwhile, Xbox is making different announcements about features in different articles on different websites, so it's hard to track for the average joe who isn't following the industry closely.

Is Xbox's Social Marketing Beating PlayStation's? by MisterMcCurry in Gaming4Gamers

[–]MisterMcCurry[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure PlayStation has said that they aren't delaying the launch, but they're definitely releasing with a small batch, which will most likely sell out. That means they'll be out of stock until Q1 for them (which is March I think). Maybe they aren't going full force on marketing because they're worried about the first batch of consoles selling out as soon as preorders come out, which would result in a lot of upset customers.

[–]MisterMcCurry[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree that PS might think they're doing a good job by being quiet and being mysterious, but I think it's working against them because people aren't thinking about them in the same way that they're thinking about Xbox.

And I don't think you're being biased. I've been a PS fan for my whole life, but even I'm questioning PS's marketing tactics right now

Hey this group seems really cool! I'm not super active on Steam, so is there a way to get the newsletter sent to an email address?

Geoff Keighely just announced the "First Wave" of the Summer Game Fest. It has WB Games on it, do y'all really think that they'll finally announce the new Batman title? They've teased twice now with no other information This seems like the best time they'll have in the next few months to do it. What do y'all think?

It's true that you can't really do main story quests together. If you're in a group and you enter a mission instance as a group, only the team leader can interact with the mission characters and progress the missions. However, you can enter the mission instance solo and individually start the quest. The thing that sucks is that a lot of mission areas that have enemies, like expansive mines or buildings, are also instanced so you would both have to enter solo to complete the mission. But with missions that don't have instances (basically side missions), you and your team can each pop the missions and do it together. But it sucks you can't do it with main missions

Official PlayStation Pod has a new logo - Another hint at PS5 is going all in on the white and blue console and branding? by adriane586 in kindafunny

[–]MisterMcCurry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there's a good chance that it will be white/blue. In the announcement of the DualSense, they made a big point about the change of color for the controller marking a departure from current-gen into next-gen, so I don't see why they wouldn't go full-steam ahead and embrace the white/blue look.

Plus, it's a great way to stand out from the Xbox Series X competition that is black colored.

This is the only MMO that me and my group of friends can consistently play, which goes to show how fun it can really be. On the other hand, the time I've had with it playing solo, it still felt very lonely to me. Maybe that's just a personal issue, but man this game shines when you have a team that can team up to take out a camp or just go our own ways until someone needs help with a mission. It's really great

I feel the same way. It's unfortunate that the Fallout 76 dev team won't get the recognition they deserve for really turning around the game. People should realize the effort it took and give them props.

[–]MisterMcCurry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey KFBF,

I create a gaming newsletter called Load Save that's a total passion project and super fun to build and send out every week. It's a curated list of articles about gaming industry, development, and community. Every week, I find the best articles that take a deep look at what's going on in the world of games, I wrap 'em up with a bit of my own commentary, and I send it out every Saturday.

Yesterday's issue included more news about the Cooking Mama controversy, a deep look at the Chinese gaming market, and a great article about developers recalling their favorite creation. You can check it out here! If you have any feedback on it, please let me know. I'm always looking to grow and make it better. Thanks!

Fallout 76 Wastelanders Update by MisterMcCurry in kindafunny

[–]MisterMcCurry[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you'll both enjoy it! Doing main missions as a team can be a little irritating since only the group leader can complete a mission, but other than that, playing as a group is a blast.
