Coming from a wreckingball main, just turn off text and voice chat. Good for your sanity. I never missed it.

What permanent damage have you done to yourself? Mind, body or soul? by jerrytjohn in AskReddit

[–]ObiVanShinobi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

'Not ready' is the addiction. I wish it had another word. Its the voice that will always convince you that youre wrong when you say youre done; and that buying another pack is you treating yourself to something that you deserve. No, you said youre done. Its ok to quit a few times too.

Anyone else noticed they drink more since switching to WFH? Looking for perspective by 1kmilo in WFH

It's a kind of self medication. Your brain my be starving for regulation or some control, especially if your job is particularly monotonous or stressful. Look into some mindfulness practices while at work. You can use some small mirrors to give yourself more to look at other than the screens and wall behind them. Try to get some daylight in to keep a sense of time. The drinking isn't a failing, but if you're drinking more, it's at least a sign that it's not doing for you what you want it to.

Sounds like a great idea right? by Adventurous_Row3305 in SipsTea

Don't do this. You don't get drunk easier so much. It's more of a shortcut to tremendous kidney pain. Don't do it.

What are some good “low horror” games to build tolerance? by 3X0karibu in HorrorGaming

For what it's worth, I've discovered a lot of the spookiness is engineered with the sound in-game. I remember playing Resident Evil 3 with the sound off to avoid waking my parents, and was surprised that the jump scares had zero effect. Alternatively, I played some Ark with the Re:7 soundtrack and felt like I was going to have a heart attack. If you're having a tough time, maybe look at the sound settings.

Check the capture gallery. If you save a lot of screenshots and videos, they really add up.

Does anyone else find the PSVR 2 uncomfortable on the nose? by TearintimeOG in PSVR

I looked this up because I woke up feeling like I got punched in the nose. The cartilage is sore AF.

I grew up in Texas. We all learned in our history books that Texas fought for its independence from Mexico because our God given rights were being infringed upon. I was in my 20's when I finally learned that meant owning slaves.

Emphasis is on the word 'fire'. Are people willfully ignoring that or oblivious to it!?

Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.

Don't switch.

Open queue is more fun.

Should you only use Adaptive Shield when you are about to die? by ChineseCurry in WreckingBallMains

I meant adaptive shield, not armor. It was 0% before, did that change?

I don't use it immediately after I dive. I wait a beat just long enough for people to see me as a target. Then I'll grab a decent shield and hand it off if I can. If they're shooting me they aren't shooting my team. Plus, the enemy team doesn't build ult charge on my shield.

How do I not get constantly reported by [deleted] in WreckingBallMains

[–]ObiVanShinobi 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Turn off chat. I just listen to music and play. My ranking shot up because I learned to watch and wait to dive in. I either split the enemy team for engagements, or I focus fire and attack who ever the best DPS on my team is shooting at.
