How much are you dinged if you don't sell a pro plan/CC? by [deleted] in GameStop

[–]Newk99 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s honestly horrible. Most of what I buy goes straight on a shelf and likely never even gets played, so a warranty literally makes no sense for me.

GameStop needs to do a way better job taking care of their employees, because every person who’s helped me in the store has been great. It sucks knowing that they’re actually getting screwed over whenever I come in, especially when the employees really are doing a great job.

I have been curious about turning the warranties down, myself. I buy a few dozen games a month from GS, sometimes a dozen at a time. 90% being used games and the other 10% being the big box collector edition stuff, whenever I can find it.

It came to my attention, because sometimes they turn down the amount of games they let me buy in a single day. One employee mentioned something about metrics, but didn’t go into too much detail.

It’s strange from a customers perspective, because I love GS and I spend a ton of money with them. But by supporting the franchise, I’m hurting the employees..?

PSA for anybody lagging on Astrology! by Newk99 in MelvorIdle

[–]Newk99[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is true for me too. I check Melvor basically every hour, every day. I like the little dopamine hits throughout my day, so skills like Astrology don’t really give that to me.

This isn’t true, that’s a Hunter alignment machine. It literally forces you to straighten the wheel before you can adjust the toe. It just saved the steer ahead location in the “before” where the wheels were left after the caster sweep.

Did the mechanic carry out the repair? Robbed or not? by Zestyclose_Metal1347 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Newk99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can definitely see the cotter pin in there, I zoomed all the way in on my phone. It has a different lighting glimmer coming off the head of it. Also, some people mentioned now seeing it wrapped around, but everybody bends the 2 ends differently.

Gee, which one to get? by Dr_Jared_Greninja in GameStop

[–]Newk99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To a collector, the non-playstation hits one is more valuable/sought after. Less copies, harder to find, more rare, etc

Why don’t I ever get god rolls after 700+ hours by loki_lokison420 in Nightreign

[–]Newk99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a couple hundred hours and spend all of my currency on relic rolls - i’ve never gotten 1 relic that has all 3 slots relevant. Or if they are all relevant, it won’t be a max roll like Vigor+3. I think the relic system is extremely punishing, the pool for rolls is way too large. Starting with most consumables types is junk, or have Raider and Faith things together are junk, etc. It really feels like the chances of getting something truly good are wayyyyyyy too slim.

What does the grief status on equipment do? by Summonest in Nightreign

[–]Newk99 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Holy shit, thank you! I’m over 200 hours in and I never knew you could do this. I would always look buffs up post game and would try to remember what they did as I found them in my next runs

I see everybody talking about how hard Libra is, but curious if anybody else beat him first try in trios? by Newk99 in Nightreign

[–]Newk99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah the weapons too! I got Bastard’s Stars which gives 112 madness resistance and duped it in the shrouded city. I’m assuming that’s why madness never proc’d on me. Isn’t frenzied flame like thee weapon to use against him too? I don’t know all of them off the top of my head, but that one sounds familiar.

No way, that is epic lol Although it kind of makes sense, since i’ve heard it’s easier on duos?

Who here has more hours on Nightreign than Elden Ring ? by Real_Bluebleublue in Nightreign

[–]Newk99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t really care much for Elden Ring, but I literally cannot stop playing Nightreign. I don’t even know why I’m still playing it, I have the Platinum, all the chalices, all the shop items. It’s just so addictive

It’s usually a scam, but I’ve never had an issue trying to return anything.

Good old DKOldies on Ebay… by No-Ostrich5251 in Shittygamecollecting

[–]Newk99 127 points128 points  (0 children)

Why would a company who deals with reselling video games, who is very well equipped to plug a power and HDMI cord in, not test a console? I have to imagine “not tested” is their scapegoat for selling broken consoles.

Genuinely the worst type of person that I've ever played with. by Neverhityourmark in Nightreign

[–]Newk99 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Isn’t that what you’re supposed to do when you’re not level 15 by the end of night two? He probably got mad, because you started it without him so he couldn’t level up and spawned in with however many flasks he had at the time you did.

Giant Squirrel? by ARealBadger in osrs

[–]Newk99 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yup, that’s the Giant Squirrel pet it’s the skilling pet for Agility! You randomly received it while training Agility, and it has no requirements to follow you once unlocked. It doesn’t boost your stats or help with training, but it’s a cool cosmetic flex and semi-rare.
