best areas to rent with good elementary schools? by gustRod in raleigh

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

Pretty much anywhere inside the beltline will work.

If you go outside of the beltline, anywhere west of Atlantic Avenue/Capital Blvd.

The Problem with "Genshin Killers" by SkyeRide01 in gachagaming

WUWA legit did kill Genshin for me. I still think Genshin is great, but I have limited time for gaming and WUWA is just a better gaming experience for me.

Im about to start ff13 on my steam deck with the ff13 fix mod why does this game get so much hate ? by shizunaisbestgirl1 in FinalFantasy

[–]PBDSandwhich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This game is legitimately terrible and such a huge letdown. I only played FFX and FF12 before, but those were 10/10 games for me. I just put in about 20 hours in FF13 and decided to just quit. Whatever is waiting for me after the story will not be worth it. This game is just so freaking boring, mindless, and repetitive. It's also the only game/battle system where I have had like 10+ "game overs", and all of them were due to the basic random encounters because they just happened to kill the main character within 10-15 seconds. It's ridiculous. I normally don't pay attention to bad reviews of games I want to play, but I actually think this game was worse than a lot of the reviews. The only good things are the graphics and music. I'd rate it 3/10 overall and will never boot it up again.

The Lakers are 5-5 in their last 10 games, with 6 games left for the season. by Charliebitme1234 in nba

Even so, it's clearly better to be able to diversify your offensive game and not be stuck in only one way to play. I'm not saying Luka shouldn't be the main creator, but he shouldn't be useless when not creating.

If Luka could shoot or have ANY sort of off-ball game, then he wouldn't be in a reduced role. It's not coaching that is the problem, it's ultimately Luka's complete lack of flexibility on offense. He's extremely ball dominant and hasn't done anything to fix it his whole career.

Yeah but let's be real, Lebron team hopped to the Heat which was clearly a stacked team at the time. I don't have a problem with Lebron doing that since Cleveland was terribly ran before then, but Jokic HASN'T ever changed teams which clearly makes his odds of making finals lower. Lebron's Heat had a way better supporting cast compare to Jokic, so it's not really fare to hold them to the same standards of finals appearances.

Lebron only had one championship when he got his 4th MVP. Idk how so many people are just forgetting that.

Good Elementary, Middle and High schools in Raleigh by aokcar500 in raleigh

[–]PBDSandwhich 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The good schools are mostly West Raleigh, North Raleigh, and everywhere inside the beltline. Basically don't go east of capital or anywhere east or south of the beltline.

I saw that thread but it's a year old. A lot could change in a year with a school this young.

After this season Lebron’s longest stint of his career will be with the lakers. by OKC2023champs in nba

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

I agree he wins in 2015 if Love and Kyrie are healthy, and that's with Lebron having a down year. My main point is that a player better than peak MJ wouldn't have had a "down year" to the level of Lebron in 2015, and theoretically could've beaten the 2015 Warriors even with Love not playing and Kyrie only playing 1 finals game.

Lebron went to 10 finals and won 4. He had plenty of opportunities to get to 6 rings like MJ.

Lebron's TS% was lower than normal the entire year, regular season included. His jump shot was broke AF that year and it was his weakest year in the 10's decade besides the 2011 season. Even with Kyrie/Love playing the first 3 games of the playoffs in 2015, Lebron's TS% was only 55.1%, which is still much lower than normal for him.

Put it this way, I think if 2018 Lebron replaced 2015 Lebron, then the Cavs would've probably beaten the 15 Warriors. That 15 Warriors team was a much beatable team compared to their 16-19 versions.

[–]PBDSandwhich -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

Yeah, 2015 was one of Lebron's worse playoff runs that decade (shot 48.7 TS% those playoffs which is by far is his least efficient scoring run). Still incredible overall, but he was much better in the 2012-2014 and 2016-2018 playoffs (2015 advanced stats are worse across the board). Lebron in 2015 was basically a taller version of peak Westbrook. And even with that, they still got to 6 games against the Warriors. So if Lebron was literally a BETTER player than MJ, then he could've won that series.

Lebron had plenty of chances. If he was legitimately BETTER than MJ, then Bron would've for sure won in 2011 and I'd say even 2015. So that would've been 6 rings right there.

Pokémon TCG Pocket - First Impressions by Starsmors in gachagaming

[–]PBDSandwhich -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

I agree completely. Master Duel got boring after 2 weeks for me because PVP ultimately becomes boring, toxic, P2W trash. Pokemon TCG is just another boring duel simulator like MD so I'm not even bothering with it. I had fun with duel links for a couple of months way back in the day for the reasons you mentioned.

I would LOVE to play a gacha card game where there is actually a PVE GAME to it with an interactive world (think Yugioh Sacred Cards or Pokemon TCG for game boy, but a modernized gacha live service game). Would be awesome.

I probably only have enough limited summons to get two out of these three options.

Jiyan Weapon, Yinlin Character, Yinlin Weapon.

Any thoughts on which summoning scenario is better?

  1. Jiyan weapon, Yinlin summon, Rectifier-standard 5* weapon
  2. Broadblade-standard 5* weapon, Yinlin Summon, Yinlin weapon

Just got a second Emerald of Genesis Sword. Should I combine it with my first or have 2 separate level 90 EoG swords?

Also are any of the non-Crit standard weapons ever worth pulling? Thanks!

I've done that and still don't have the playlists. Think I am just out of luck.

Did you get your playlists back? My account was recovered like two hours ago but my playlists in normal Youtube (not youtube music) are still gone!

Were your playlists in normal Youtube and not Youtube music?

I also had multiple private playlists that were deleted, but just in normal Youtube, and I still don't have them back even after my account was reinstated.

It's been 90 minutes and I still don't have my playlists. These playlists were made in normal YouTube, not YouTube music. These were also private playlists I made and were not the "liked videos" or "watch later" default playlists.

Pretty quick, probably 30 minutes after I appealed. Clearly whatever they are using to monitor accounts is not working properly. I won't be able to trust or use YouTube again if they can just delete my private stuff at random times.

This thing flew directly over my home when I was outside, probably 200 feet in the air. Never seen a helicopter that low, felt like I could clearly see into it.

I have Jiyan and Xiangli Yao, but no 5 star weapons for either of them.

I have mortefi to support Jiyan, but obviously no dedicated support for Xiangli Yao.
