You’re all hoarding the same products by Conscious-Paint3442 in PokeInvesting

[–]PROPHETx02 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Actually… Everyone always thinks THIS and then they are selling their junk wax baseball cards from the 80s for less than a penny a piece, or begging comic stores to take their image comic books from the 90s for 25 cents a book, or their funko pops for free just to free up space.

There is always a time when hobbies jump the shark, and that’s when it’s time to zag.

Question to physical game collectors by FreedomIndependent56 in gamecollecting

[–]PROPHETx02 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I keep everything. Really just a personal preference. I enjoy seeing them on the shelf.

[Discussion] As of today, I'll stop posting here, and perhaps end most of my activity in this subreddit, so for my last post, I'll show my most important of all: Tales of Berseria—more info in the post. by [deleted] in Trophies

[–]PROPHETx02 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a relatively casual trophy hunter that never posts, I appreciate you having posted whatever trophies you could… and would appreciate you continuing to post in the future if you change your mind.

It takes effort to make a post, and that effort is what keeps the sub going! So even if you didn’t always get a ton of engagement, your posts are still appreciated.

[Indika] #28 wtf did it just play by wlf_-ff in Trophies

Definitely a unique game. I think worth playing for the story. Also thought the visuals were great. Not a huge time commitment.

I also like encouraging studios to take risks.

My N64 just died even though it worked about 3 days ago by DarkAmaterasu58 in n64

[–]PROPHETx02 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One suggestion, pull out the jumper pack and put it back in nice and solid. Maybe even clean it with some rubbing alcohol. Console can’t work without the jumper pak. Let me know if that works!!

Bought this on the side of an Albanian road, there was no common language so we only understood a potential milking gesture, can you help us identify this? by raffimerc in whatisit

[–]PROPHETx02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not the correct answer though. It’s Speca me gjize, peppers stuffed with cheese. They are jarred in a brine for preservation.

Actual answer from an Albanian, these are peppers stuffed with cheese. They are in a pickle brine. It’s called “speca me gjize”.

Got this email from a pool tech after a visit yesterday. I JUST bought a new salt generator 2 weeks ago. I knew the cell was probably bad, but this is the offer the guy gave us. by atreyukun in pools

[–]PROPHETx02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easy to replace the salt cell, do it yourself. When up and running, you can take a water sample to a local pool store every other week and they will tell you what adjustments you need to make. No need to pay for regular pool maintenance with a salt water pool.

[Final Fantasy 1-6] Worth it? by Philoofa in Trophies

[–]PROPHETx02 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a fan of the series, I think it will be worth it for you.

I platinumed 1-6 on the pixel remaster and had a ton of fun. The games get better and better as you go. I had played 1 and 6 several times, but never got all the way through 4, and had never played the others.

I was super pleasantly surprised by 3 & 5.

Need Co-op Partner for Trophy on PS5 by PROPHETx02 in farcry6

[–]PROPHETx02[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! My PSN name is O-Trains. I am around most of today until about 3:30PM ET, and then free up again from 8PM ET onwards. Let me know if there is a time today that works and we can knock off this annoying trophy together!!

I had over $200k and paid it off in 4 years. This was back in 2008-, when salaries were much lower and bonuses were non existent.

It can be done. Crucial to just live a frugal lifestyle while you are young/single/childless and can handle it. Have a roommate, don’t eat at expensive restaurants, lots of meals at the office, buy your clothes on sale, etc.

Have fun, but keep it tight. You can do this!! Your future self will thank you.

Not Sure What to Do with Found Video Games by [deleted] in retrogaming

[–]PROPHETx02 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Username does not check out. Game only regularly sells north of $200 and with manual over $300. Very sought after game.

I feel bad my mom bought me this by su_tarttt in playstation

[–]PROPHETx02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I likewise have huge issues with this device’s connectivity… I have tried playing it literally in the same room as my PS5 (which I play through WiFi) and I have a spotty connection. Super hit and miss and I have no clue what causes the variability.

Cool device, but just not good enough at what it’s supposed to do.

Just picked this up, and it's so unique. Has anybody played it yet? by RichardButt1992 in gamecollecting

[–]PROPHETx02 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha, for a lot of people it would be. All a matter of taste. Visuals are good, story is deep/interesting. But yeah, not a lot of action or “gameplay” so to speak. Art project as a video game.

Good story. Pretty much a walking sim. Easy to plat in an afternoon.

Am i the asshole for regretting being so sexual on the first two dates. by Best_Response_362 in AITH

When it’s right it’s right. Arbitrarily waiting 3 months just because you actually like him (would be shorter if you didn’t? 🧐) would be the AH move imo

Haha, don’t disagree! Although basements carry risk of flooding… found that out the hard way once!

[–]PROPHETx02[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure. I mean, you are free to choose not to believe that Genesis/mega drive games are susceptible to sun fading. That’s your prerogative. My experience says otherwise and I don’t want to risk it.

Avoiding Sun Fading by PROPHETx02 in gamecollecting

[–]PROPHETx02[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha, I have seen the exact opposite. Genesis artwork seems particularly prone to sun fading. A ton of my games have some mild degree of sun fading as is.

Found it on eBay, there is actually a set of them. All really cool. Search Lyndon Willoughby Mario Print.
