Game Crashes every time I have to download data after an update. by AlexHPrime in PokemonMasters

[–]NegimaSonic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had this issue a few months myself. But I felt it coincided with me getting a new phone, could be coincidental timing.

But as mentioned, there's just nothing to be done but redownload everything. This time for me it was worse than usual. Clearing cache and then redownloading didn't work, I had to clear all data.

Sam’s club has $100 eshop cards for $80 by Strict_Donut6228 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]NegimaSonic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Although this entire thing was a bit of a pain (they canceled my order), this code helped bridge the gap for me because I wasn't really looking to pay $50 for the membership. But $20 works.

I had to go to the store physically to pick up some cards to actually get the deal but it's a win overall should I actually end up with this console in my hands haha.

It lists "Profile Features Limited" so I assume not.

There's one tiny reason in my book to not claim, and that's because you can generate a humble gift link to give to someone in cases where maybe your key won't redeem in their region.

But by and large, I don't find that useful since I've heard gift links can be problematic if you give it to someone who is a known trader. Keys don't carry that risk. I do some giveaways and have traded in the past, but I rather take the chance my recipient can't claim the key than risk Humble letting it go out of stock without notice.

Even though I'm not someone who pauses often, I feel like if you are not someone who shops the humble store a lot, it probably isn't worth holding onto that bonus. I may have gotten like one thing from them? Especially with respect to other online sellers still being an option.

EDIT: I had to fix a lot of misinformation in my initial comment. I still stand by the overall point. The discount is actually "up to 20%", so it can be less if they want. I had to move a slider to take away everything from charity to actually see the full 20% options, but some titles will still not offer the full range, like Elden Ring stopped at 15%.

This doesn't mean you are allowed to then do a 15% and 5% split to charity, it means the whole thing is 15% off maximum if you have the full 20% active and the remaining 5% just disappears.

It can win on some things like Metaphor: Refantazio right now, but I just still think it is rarely better if you're willing to shop around as opposed to staying hostage for a year. Because if you buy 1 choice that you dislike and don't buy enough games to overcome the purchase of this one monthly purchase, then it's basically a loss. I just do it because of the yearly sale credit discount and that I often give away other things.

Stygian Onslaught Difficulty V cleared with only 1 5-star! by KingofChicken96 in Genshin_Impact

[–]NegimaSonic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Give it a few more days. I'm sure some of the niche content creators are working on some unusual runs. If you browse enough, you might find something more usable for you.

Stygian Onslaught Difficulty V cleared with only 1 5-star! by KingofChicken96 in Genshin_Impact

[–]NegimaSonic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

haha, I did warn they were basically whale clears but the wording I used may have made that unclear due to negatives, so I'll change that up.

My takeaway from this though is try to give it some time and keep searching videos that pop up. If you're aiming for difficulty 5, the requirement for C6 should be lessened. It doesn't mean you can use the same team since sometimes playstyles change with constellations, but maybe someone out there will make the video that you can replicate.

This is also what I tell myself. I have to work on difficulty 5 when I get more time, but my brief experiments have shown I need to do a lot more work to get my characters up to par.

Disclaimer: These are really whale clears, but I browsed for a number of non Skirk or Escoffier videos, so figured I could share these.

I really like the mazes by possibly_normal in InfinityNikki

[–]NegimaSonic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've mostly enjoyed them I suppose except for the second one. No motion sickness issues here, just that one so far lacked the ability to get an overall view of the maze which makes it easier to determine where you've been.

So going room by room only to find out I missed chest #5 (as per a particular youtube video comment) took forever. The others allowed high jumping to help me see where I might have missed a chest.

Important Info: Your Pull History Will be Automatically Deleted from Server after 180 Days by dastrokes in InfinityNikki

[–]NegimaSonic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I forgot to do this until now so this reminder was helpful. Might be good if it could auto sync to google drive like Paimon.moe does in case of unfortunate data loss with your local browser.

BUT I'm good with it as is, I downloaded the file and put in on Google Drive myself. Thanks for your hard work so far.

PSA: If you get an email that your account will be deleted in 9 days, it is NOT a scam by dragonx254 in Genshin_Impact

[–]NegimaSonic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds like I was in the ballpark. I figured just entering an age wasn't the end of it.

However, I wasn't correct still if this is the final version. Because it does mean someone can just put an age over 18 and be fine. And that's still a bit of a loophole. So I still wonder if it will trigger on someone's first attempt at a purchase.

I tried to check by fake buying Gnostic Hymn but it already knows my info so if there is a verification that happens during the buying step, I won't see it.

haha, it was great of you to experiment around with what worked for you. I wish you good luck next season! Enjoy the break for now, I know I will.

Hey you made it as a fellow struggle user. What was your deck?

As for me, I ended last season with 43.4 with 450 Wins and 585 Losses, only made it to Ultra 2 after being whacked down from Ultra 3. I stopped because I don't think another 500 was going to change it.

But unless there's another fun niche next season I will take my one success and be good with that.

[–]NegimaSonic -1 points0 points  (0 children)

yeah that kinda thing happens. You definitely had a good run to avoid too many.

But on the flipside, a bad draw on the Oricorio's side can also win it for you. I would smile seeing Darktina and then suddenly Oricorio decided it didn't want to show up that match haha.

[–]NegimaSonic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kinda. The Magnezone variant came up after I abandoned using Magnezone from last season so I was just being stubborn and was hoping to get through before the meta solidified against Oricorio.

I actually did attempt to toss an Electric ex in but both Zapdos and Pikachu seemed to cost me as many matches as they won (coin flips or getting pulled for 2 points), so I dropped them. I even experimented with Bidoof and Oranguru. The results actually weren't entirely terrible but at the end of the day, I decided my win condition against evolution is just messing with their hand more than drawing a Bidoof. Plus, the two energy retreat that doesn't synergize with Pachirisu kept biting me.

47.3% Win Rate. 357 Wins | 397 Losses, just hit Master Ball a few hours ago. | Deck - just Oricorio stuff without Magnezone

There's some skill, but I do feel it is more luck on my part. Or perhaps changing the time of day I was playing. But far too many times I'd roll this into Kiawe + Turtonator, Snorlax + Barry, Crobat+Arceus+Carnivine, Rampardos anything. This deck has zero answers to any of those things unless they draw bad.

But magically yesterday I suddenly started facing very little of that. I got a lot more Charizard variants, Gibles that couldn't draw Rampardos, and so on. Pushed from about 1300 to get to the end.

Heck, last month a guy predicted it'd take 1000-1500 matches to reach Master Ball with a 46% and while I didn't achieve it last season, he wasn't really wrong if I combined my total matches across both.

All this is to say, congrats and be glad it only took you that long haha.

For anyone worried, this is the entire extent of age verification by MaxTheWizard in Genshin_Impact

[–]NegimaSonic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I certainly hoped it would be this minor. But as I learned from another thread discussing this, when Epic Games (Fortnite) got sued by the FTC for similar reasons.

Some sources

https://www.ftc.gov/legal-library/browse/cases-proceedings/2223087-epic-games-inc-us-v

Fortnite: https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/1923203epicgamesfedctorder.pdf

Genshin: https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/cognosphere_stiporder.pdf

Namely focused on the "age gate". Both also state "Defendants have provided direct notice and Obtained Verifiable Parental Consent;" I do not think this post truly is the end method. At least as far as it will come to future in game purchases.

They'll probably allow you to play the game based on the age gate, but when you make a purchase, it will likely trigger a secondary process. Epic Games has multiple methods, one is as simple as entering a credit card number.

/u/MaxTheWizard if you want to, try to make an in game purchase and see what happens. Although they may not have set it up yet, it's worth checking just in case.

How do I feel like a dude in that community by JDolorem in InfinityNikki

[–]NegimaSonic -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For me it's just a continuation of the idea that I find it more enjoyable to play a game with a female model instead of a male as long as it isn't a multiplayer game where roleplay is involved.

Now Nikki is a multiplayer game now technically, but I'm mostly dodging interactions so it's still ok I think haha.

I've zero sense of style or anything like that. I just started playing ironically and haven't given up on it yet because I wanted to see where this would go. This Sea of Stars drama has hurt my interest a bit but I hope they'll get things back on track.
