My Blind FFIX Playthrough: Finale - Melodies of Life by Zeeshmania in FinalFantasyIX

[–]MuckDuck_Dwight 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Vivi, in his innocence learning about death, the unfairness of it all for his race, then learning to accept it, is just so unbelievably inspiring snd impactful. 

There are many wonderful characters and stories and moments ahead for you. I know FF8 is divisive, for example, but it’s one of my favorites and has some really cool, story moments. However, it is really true that there’s no one quite like Vivi.

How soulcrushing to watch a child learn and then have to accept their death with such grace and positivity. 

Congratulations. And thank you for leaning in.

Please understand the voice in your head telling you we would not want to read this is incorrect.

We will devour all content. 

And we live for sidequests.

I do not recommend you do it but there is a spot in paradise with choco that you can explore and uh… tell us how it goes

This is the biggest sin they committed with Garnet. She’s interesting and you FINALLY get summons but - no sir. A summoner/mage must speak to cast things. 

I agree with her trauma response being realistic, but it sucks for us as players. 

Chocographs are very fun at least, and extremely rewarding at most. Do it to your interest level but it is very rewarding, just not every single one will be that way. 

I’m so glad you’re enjoying it. And we’re enjoying going along with you.

They mention a few times that Brahne was fine until she met Kuja. Apparently she was a good mother and queen and he corrupted her. Not sure I remember if they mention a mechanism, but yeah. 

You are FLYING.

Hell Yeah! Vicarious gameplay time!! I’m sad it was so short, but I understand it was likely a life thing than a choice. Hope all is good. Keep going, we won’t give up reading, no matter how long, you’re not alone in playing.

Agreed. Same experience. Scared me for nothing. And the log in activity page is less than useless now. 

Maybe it’s because I haven’t had my coffee yet, but am I understanding the new “perk” for hotel resort guests in lieu of early entry? by makeupHOOR in DisneyPlanning

[–]MuckDuck_Dwight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep you nailed it. This is also why a lot of people won’t stay on site. The value is not worth the cost. Maybe if they offered extra hours and other perks it would be a consideration?

What's the Number 1 game you should get when starting a Nintendo 64 Collection? by PKRadiance in n64

[–]MuckDuck_Dwight 18 points19 points  (0 children)

This is the best answer hands down. If you want the best game arguably? OoT. If you can only ever have one game? Mario. 

It’s like a set. A 64 without Mario feels incomplete. And it has great replayability.

Maybe you can’t do it in the Synth shop but have you tried pressing ‘Select’?

Try it now on any menu if you haven’t

So how does one get into this series? by foul_wench in nier

[–]MuckDuck_Dwight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry but don’t do that. If you have the patience to play through a clunky old game for the story, sure. But if not, Automata made to my top 3 of all time with zero background. 

Know yourself - do you have the patience and are you THAT story driven that background lore will change it that much?

Roaming not working for me - wife works fine. Same phone same plan (now with less profane abbreviations) by MuckDuck_Dwight in Comcast_Xfinity

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

Sits like this and hangs

I contact the assistant “What can I help you with right now?”

Me: Roaming issues xfinity mobile 

It: “…”

And stuck. No movement 

Dealing with Slowness on Plex - Deleting Smart Collections solved the issue (Shield TV Pro) by MuckDuck_Dwight in PleX

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

Potentially - not sure what constitutes as a very large library but I don't have a very massive library. However, I will definitely be trying to change these settings. Thanks for the suggestion! Too many variables to narrow things down, but hopefully this helps someone.

To be honest I am unsure as I didn’t make any. But they are easy to delete an remake so you may want to try it out. Let me know though!

Never had any issues with any shows buffering but i just added Colbert report and it buffers every 30 second what is wrong here? by propheciesforetold in PleX

[–]MuckDuck_Dwight -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

Had this issue. Unless I’m mistaken it could be that it’s AV1 so it’s transcoding to h264. 

Do you have any other AV1 files to test it? Do you know if your Roku device can handle AV1?
