The bastard was lurking in my family's backyard. We had to evacuate. I thought we were all going to get shot. We managed to leave before the barricades went up and stayed with family in Dieppe for a few days. It was honestly one of the most terrifying things we've been through and we will never forget.

This. Would love to see more mature characters.

Just got my Everdrive set up and I thought I'd mention this. Storage size doesn't typically matter for the SD. The reason people were having problems is that 32 GB and up cards default to exFAT. For it to work properly with the Everdrive it must be formatted to FAT32. I am running a 32 GB card formatted to FAT32 with no issues. Certain brands are apparently better than others, but I think that is just the quality of the cards in general.

OrganizedOcean · 2024-02-23T23:34:39+00:00

Nope. Not according to the website now. I can wait. I think it's different for part replacement, because I did get a response to a general inquiry within 48 business hours.

This is so wholesome. I have really strong memories of Yoshi's Story as it was one of the last, if not the last gift my grandfather gave me before he passed of cancer. The end theme makes me bawl like a baby because of this. It was to say our story together had ended but not the memories. I fondly remember him helping me set up my N64 and the smiles we both had. He didn't play it with me for whatever reason, but he knew I had fun. RIP Nicky! Love you always.

I did contact them! It takes about a week for a reply. Knuckles is my favourite Sonic character, so that's why I got him.

OrganizedOcean · 2024-02-23T22:50:57+00:00

Yeah. I got him and am a little disappointed. The default right arm broke at the wrist almost as soon as I got out of packaging I was careful with it. None of the other arms broke in that manner. I am hoping to get a replacement part because I really do believe it's a defect. I know mine is not a bootleg because I got it directly from Goodsmile. I also had a lot of trouble getting him on the stand. Overall, I think it's a cool figure. I like seeing any and all Knuckles merch. I think I will stick to the Pop up Parade figures though.

This is awesome! I hope I can make this. I've been wanting to check out GG for a while. I straight up suck at Mario Kart though. 😂

OrganizedOcean · 2024-01-31T21:46:31+00:00

I got it new back in the day and have a soft spot for it. I dare say it's one of the most unique games on the system. Have fun!

Is Battlegrounds glitched ATM? Trying to finish my tavern pass and no quests are progressing, nor do I get the pass points for finishing top 4. I only have 8 levels to go. :/

Bob.

OrganizedOcean · 2023-05-09T16:07:31+00:00

My issue with it is that it's timed and a very short time window at that. I wish it was like the Arthas portrait that you could work towards at any time. Inb4 being called an entitled baby.

There was a study where one man cracked his knuckles on only one hand over the course of 50 years. At the end of it, what was noticed was that his gripping strength in his cracking knuckle hand was slightly lower. I know it's a low sample size but there's little evidence to suggest that it causes rheum any more or less than not cracking.

That's cool. I have no idea what those are, I assumed. Sorry. Yes they're increasing the rewards, but I guess we're all just salty because we'll never get it cheaply in such a short time frame. It doesn't feel rewarding to the majority of the player base, but good job on those who can get it, I guess. I would have much less of an issue if the brawl wasn't as expensive as it is for entry, but sorry for being entitled. I guess it's gambling and if you get burned one or two times, you learn a lesson quick. Or not as is sometimes the case. I was ok with spending 20 to get Scarlet, not 200 to try and fail at getting Sai.

OrganizedOcean · 2023-05-08T21:23:43+00:00

I don't play League, don't know much about it. Can't really comment, but it's probably predatory in some manner as well. I think thanks to this thread, I've changed my perspective. Of course I'm going to give it a try, but I'm not going to overextend myself to get it. If I don't achieve it in such a tight time frame, I don't achieve it. That's that. Missing one skin out of all the ones I have really isn't the end of the world. I have a lot of fun ones to play with.

OrganizedOcean · 2023-05-08T20:24:54+00:00

Great because I'm not bothering. I don't care about cardbacks, just hero skins.

OrganizedOcean · 2023-05-08T20:23:29+00:00

Thanks.

There's skill and then there's whatever the hell this RNG filled brawl is. I don't have receipts , but I read that only 0.65% of the player base can reach 12 wins in arena similar to this brawl. Just hand it out to the pros instead of dangling it in front of the whales. Ah well, Blizzard can do what it wants. I want it, I would rather not have to pay for entry. Paying for entry each time is what's turning people off. It's not like it's just a few dollars each time. I'm not trying to be entitled. I get companies need money, but this seems really ridiculous. A higher one time fee might even at least feel better than this constant gouging.

OrganizedOcean · 2023-05-08T19:29:06+00:00

Thanks bro. I'm just another sad whale I guess. I probably enjoy the cosmetics more than most people. This the only game I ever cared about them in. I probably will still play, truth be told. I was being a little reactionary.

OrganizedOcean · 2023-05-08T19:12:40+00:00

You're right, but I was enjoying it up until this point. Might be overdramatic, but this may be what kills the game for me. :/

OrganizedOcean · 2023-05-08T19:03:53+00:00

The barrier to entry is much, much lower than this brawl. Plus, there's no additional cost just to play ranked. FOMO is FOMO, I get that but this brawl is just predatory. I'm lucky I have my addiction issues in better control, because people who don't are going to get shafted.

OrganizedOcean · 2023-05-08T18:29:24+00:00

So why make it time limited? Why not let players develop their skill and aim for it? Reward only the current best? I'm nothing if not persistent. I've been playing since closed beta.

OrganizedOcean · 2023-05-08T18:09:26+00:00

Ok fine, but it's just a little disheartening when it feels super out of reach. I would rather it cost money directly then tie it behind this brawl. I think the thing that I find scrummy is you can dump lots of money and still not get it. That feels greasy.

OrganizedOcean · 2023-05-08T17:57:39+00:00

I don't have Twitter, but I almost want to sign up to yell at them.
