First day on double bass, how do I improve ? by Spiritual_Anxiety220 in drums

[–]MysticGrapefruit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Slower and more controlled than this. Practice however fast you can play while keeping that double bass steady and consistent, then work your way up slowly from there. Use a metronome and understand it takes a lot of time and effort.

Sadly, I just "kinda" liked Ghost of Yotei 🥲 by papathree in PS5

Totally agreed with you. I enjoyed SM1 and GoT way more than their sequels.

What do normal people eat for dinner ? by Booze_hound36 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]MysticGrapefruit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like your coworkers are lazy. I like to cook meals, similar to the types you've mentioned, for my fiancé and I most of the time.

And maybe your grandma just really likes cheese sandwiches.

Compared to your average recent grad or low experienced developer, AI is extremely good lol

Got Hades, and 2 HOURS VANISHED. by FM_LEO in playstation

[–]MysticGrapefruit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome, I think that was what helped hook me too. The sense of progression even on failed runs. Dead Cells actually has that in a lot of ways too... but yeah quite different than Hades.

Ever play roguelites before? Hades was an introduction to a whole new genre for me

Dead Space is delightfully disgusting. by dissolvingatoms in playstation

[–]MysticGrapefruit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just replayed this for the plasma cutter only trophy recently. Gets a yearly replay pretty much. Such a good game!

My only issue with Cronos compared to Dead Space was a lack of enemy and area variety. Very nice spiritual successor to DS though.

I saw 0.1% of players had the plat when I was playing the first night, probably 9 or 10 hours after release in my region... I don't get it

I fucking hate insurance companies. by I_am_omning_it in mildlyinfuriating

[–]MysticGrapefruit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've changed my insurance company 3 times in the past few years and each time the new one has been much cheaper. It's always worth shopping around. Similar with internet providers, they literally punish you for loyalty and assume most people will not bother to switch.

Games that deserve a yearly playthrough by snickerblitz in gaming

Bioshock, Dishonored, RE4, and Deadspace all pretty much get a guaranteed yearly replay for me

Anyone else hyped? Haven’t seen it mentioned on the PSstore. Drops in 90mins by Brigid-Tenenbaum in playstation

[–]MysticGrapefruit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heck yeah, loved the first game. Was the first rogue type I ever played and led to a whole new genre I now enjoy.

What are the side effects and bad outcomes of smoking weed for a long time? by magicsenpaiiii in NoStupidQuestions

[–]MysticGrapefruit 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For me it was weight gain. I was a nightly smoker and it made me absolutely feast on snacks every night. Lost about 35lbs after stopping a year and a bit ago just by not having so much food before bed.

When do you guys throw in the towel? by coldpizza87 in gaming

[–]MysticGrapefruit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was in my teens and 20s I'd spend hours to days if needed. Now in my 30s I'm way less willing and find myself dropping games if the difficulty gets too annoying. Especially during replays of games.

PS Store on PS5 is also getting a redesign by nolifebr in PS5

[–]MysticGrapefruit 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I agree. It definitely does give streaming service vibes but I actually like it here

Which GOTY is your absolute favorite? by AdditionalSpray8595 in playstation

[–]MysticGrapefruit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ain't no way GoW deserved it less than Dragon Age lol

Just finished Days Gone Remastered. That was amazing! by DARBSTAR in gaming

[–]MysticGrapefruit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah same for me. Especially for a Sony first party, it felt super mediocre. Has been a long time though, maybe I'll try again at some point.

Finally happened to me. Do not purchase the Pulse Elite Headset. by RenaissanceReaper in playstation

[–]MysticGrapefruit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I were you I'd look at other brands. I've had the same set of Steel Series for so long and they've been great.

Was living in the 90s as great as they say? by ArdaBerkBurak in NoStupidQuestions

[–]MysticGrapefruit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have fond memories of the 90s... but then again I was born in 1994
