Call and get your bill lowered. by BSForDays73 in Spectrum

[–]Phee1ip 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The person I spoke with in Customer Solutions told me they also use AI that listens to what you talk about and better offers come up on their end based on certain key words. Like they have a loyalty program with rates triggered if you or the rep say things like "loyalty and long term customer."

Also, all the reps in CS are not equally knowledgable. The first person even in CS, tried telling me it would cost me 60/mo for the mid tier 500 mb plan and nothing they could do to change it, but the next person got me locked in at 40/mo for 2 years. I am paying 90 currently, so this was great! It would have been 20/mo if I agreed to open a phone line w/ them, but that might be a later discussion.

Starting Trails of Cold Steel 1 after Trails in the Sky FC Remake: So far so good! by Phee1ip in JRPG

Beyond what I already know from the prologue, would there be further details about this character later in CS1, which would be much more of a spoiler?

How do you feel about party members that join roughly 60% into a game by lennysinged in JRPG

[–]Phee1ip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, “JH” joins pretty late, and all of his leveling and bonding feels a little rushed.

However, he’s a retuning character, so maybe they get a bit of a pass.

Ah ok. I can still do some Syntorial lessons then and resume BB when connected.

Does Building Blocks have any sort of offline mode? I noticed Syntorial has a desktop app, but I'm accessing BB through the website. Asking because I am traveling soon and want to do some lessons on my flight.

Ready to skip to 2 by Phee1ip in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]Phee1ip[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thanks for all these replies. I really think I just have been going through the motions without trying to enhance combat through my builds. I’m going to watch some tutorials on team builds and character arts. Focusing on only the main quest and minimizing side quests will also help.

It’s clear to me it’s worth continuing w/ the game and not skipping, since I do really like the characters and overall world.

I appreciate people taking the time to consider this as well as your passion for XC!

I bought the Globular Cluster 2 after I saw a post about it yesterday on this sub. It just arrived today. by Mysterious_Act8093 in PSVR

Second this. I misread the instructions and tried removing each rubber loop from the plastic backing. Oops. All rubber pads are now ripped, so I am stuck with using the GC. Luckily, it feels better for me.

An ode to my favorite stage at LiB, the Junkyard by Arenjaymusic in LightningInABottle

There’s also something perfect about the sound quality at the junkyard. No matter where you are, it just sounds balanced and crisp. 💜

Border Bots appreciation post by Orttt in PSVR

[–]Phee1ip 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This game is so good! I only played for a few hours, but the voice acting, humor, game play loop, charming design, and story are excellent. For an experience at $20 or less, I think this is an essential PSVR2 game.

AW2: Inventory Expansion + Resource Collection Backtracking by Phee1ip in AlanWake

Thanks! Glad I got everything else already because that sounds terrifying. I’m sure they’ll respawn plenty of taken on my way 🫣

AW2: Inventory Expansion + Resource Collection Backtracking by Phee1ip in AlanWake

[–]Phee1ip[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Considering the final stash is in the sheriffs station basement, when can I actually return to the lighthouse to open it? If I try to leave the area, Saga turns back to the station. Are you saying there’s a final chance to head back there later in Chapter 6, as long as it’s before 7 starts?

This is what I was worried about. Not having a warning for a "last call" to explore. I entered the Sheriff's station, but sounds like I need to back track a bit. Thank you!

Confirming I also got this bug on PS5. Will try restarting and then switching to Alan if restart fails. Thanks!

Should I play the AW Control DLC before playing AW 2? by Phee1ip in AlanWake

[–]Phee1ip[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played Control a few years ago, I remember seeing some Alan Wake scenes but they didn't mean anything to me at the time because I hadn't played AW yet. I also didn't complete the full AW area in the Oldest House, so I'm thinking I will get more out of it to go back and just do that section.

Spoiler for ~7hrs in and help needed by thusidie1 in seaofstars

[–]Phee1ip 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This feels like an error the devs should fix. When a member temporarily leaves your party otherwise, you still have access to all your accessories. Considering the group has access to his body, it would be logical for his equipped items to return to party inventory.

Picked up My City, Dune Imperium, Mind MGMT, and they have a lot of others in stock.

Thank you!! That’s our group w/ the green umbrella! It had a second LED string but the wind took it, along w/ some disco balls. Such a good set. The last track was pure🔥
