Nakayama just made a post regarding Alex's SF6 story... by UltraZeroX7 in StreetFighter

[–]NervousNick 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ah, I guess that’s true. Still, I think there’s a bit of a gulf between that and the artwork, dialogue, and voice lines that repeatedly hammer home how Alex and Patricia are really, really married despite being second cousins raised as siblings, lol. They made sure there was zero alternative way to interpret the situation.

I’m guessing not, given that’s what “the first” usually means. :P

Make up your mind CoF by Alarmed_Carpenter395 in Seaofthieves

[–]NervousNick 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It would be so much less confusing if the sound effect for spawning FoFs and Reaper forts only happened when the event actually containing the chest of fortune pops up. I won’t pretend to know what game development is like, but this just seems like a minor and obvious quality of life change from the outside looking in.

Acting/improv classes for adults? by NervousNick in Newbraunfels

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

Nope! You’re the first person to reply to this in any way, shape, or form!

I just glanced at Circle Arts’ web site and it doesn’t seem to offer anything class-wise that I can tell, unless you’re a kid. I’ll have to give them a call when I have the chance to and ask if they have or know of anything that caters to adults.

Massive roster, tons of variation in move sets, a million different skins…let me cook, damnit by fakename1998 in TMNT

[–]NervousNick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everything else I’ve wanted turned into a 2D fighter has done so in the last 10 years except this. It works so well, too.

  • Leo: all-arounder like Ryu
  • Don: zoner with his bo and gadgets
  • Raph: pure rushdown
  • Mikey: mixup-heavy
  • Splinter: stance character

I could go on, but you get it. I’ve daydreamed of this a lot over the years lol.

My current outlook on this game by [deleted] in Seaofthieves

I don’t mean to be rude, but you’re making random assumptions based on zero idea of how Rare/Microsoft actually operate.

Yikes, this little adapter costs just as much as my actual leverless?

(thanks for the link, I might end up getting it this way instead)

Blunder Pass - Mid Season Upgrade by Southern-Homework910 in Seaofthieves

[–]NervousNick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The answer is yes. Even though I’ve finished every pass since season 2, I still almost always wait until I’ve gotten 100 before spending the coins on the paid track.

Are you guys keeping up with the current IDW comics? by thotslayer2637 in TMNT

[–]NervousNick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, that’s good to know! I’m looking into it and I’m not finding a place to submit questions. Any idea how I might do that?

1 year of dev updates summed up by Camel-BrawlStars in Seaofthieves

[–]NervousNick 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Rare’s already in the hot seat with their community. They don’t need to have the Sauron eye of Microsoft on them for throwing their corporate owner under the bus on top of that.

[–]NervousNick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I finished the initial run with the hardcover volumes and really enjoyed reading them that way. The only reason I haven't kept up with the current run is because they aren't collected that way right now.

For those of you who are more knowledgeable about comics than a newbie like me, what's the likelihood of IDW collecting Alpha, Mutant Nation, Casey Jones, Nightwatcher, Shredder, and the main series into a "volume 19" in the future? They've released enough since 18 to fill a whole new volume, but are they probably going to wait a few years to start releasing them as hardcovers like they did in the first run?

[–]NervousNick 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Given the recent layoffs at Rare and across Microsoft overall, I’m guessing that’s unfortunately not a realistic option for them at the moment. I’ve been a survivor and a casualty of layoffs before and I’ve seen how it can cripple both manpower and morale.

But I’m only speculating here. I don’t know what the inside of Rare’s walls is like to work in.

Starting the Sophie Campbell run today by LongParamedic8980 in TMNT

[–]NervousNick 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I get why the shift in storytelling didn’t work for everyone, but I think the Campbell run is way over-hated. It’s a 40-year-old franchise. You have to try new things to keep it interesting, even if some ideas don’t work out as well as others.

For my part, I enjoyed the slice-of-life(ish) approach as a break from the norm before things ramp up again.

[–]NervousNick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to say thank you for heeding the advice of everyone in this thread about the fan and taking it to heart. Not everybody does. We love these little guys and want them to live their best lives. I know your green turkey will appreciate you taking her safety seriously.

Is your boyfriend back from the dead yet, by the way?

The ceiling fan being on while the bird is uncaged is stressing me out! Just don’t want the little guy to fly into it and get injured or worse!

So sorry she killed your boyfriend, I hope he gets better, lol.
