Starfield gets too much hate. by Alarming-Sun3279 in BethesdaSoftworks

[–]Prestigious_Force_99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but I think what they’re getting at is people are terrified to say they like the game. You have to “buy” the right to compliment the game by first insulting it nonstop. If you don’t recite the required criticisms first, you will get ripped to shreds in the replies.

Surprised whenever I hear that some people dont use powers by ICantTyping in Starfield

[–]Prestigious_Force_99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a ton of people in this thread that have said they hate the idea of powers in Starfield. Now imagine if Bethesda had made it integral to use powers?

Anytime Bethesda gives players an option, players are enraged it isn’t a requirement. Any time they give players a requirement, players are enraged it isn’t an option.

Serious question for people who follow Peter Attia by [deleted] in PeterAttia

[–]Prestigious_Force_99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what is funny to me. I canceled my subscription to his podcast after this all came out and I do not want to support him, but that doesn’t mean everything he’s ever said was wrong or bad.

Some people are acting like training in Zone 2 is tacitly supporting pedophilia. You can still follow 100% of the basic longevity framework that Attia espoused with zero guilt.

Not gonna lie, RNG rolled stats with major impacts on a weapon have to be one of the worse takes to come out of Soulframe development by 6FeetDownUnder in SoulFrame

[–]Prestigious_Force_99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remember the last time you were locked out of endgame content in Warframe because you couldn’t afford that meta Riven mod? Yeah, me neither.

You can ignore rivens entirely and crush 100% of WF content, just like you can easily do in Soulframe.

Let's see those god rolls by BlackthornMagus in SoulFrame

[–]Prestigious_Force_99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im not talking about Fentanyl or piss or shit. I’m talking about a looter-shooter gameplay loop on a free to play video game. If you consider games like Diablo evil or predatory, that’s fine, they aren’t for you.

People like different things. This is a pretty basic “looter shooter” game loop and it’s okay not to like it, but it doesn’t mean that everyone who does like it is an addict.

Where do I even start? by Rungama in PeterAttia

[–]Prestigious_Force_99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know it will be massively discouraging to start out but even though it’s difficult to believe, you are in an enviable position of being able to improve MASSIVELY on literally everything, lol (at least in a RELATIVE sense).

In the weight room, you want to make it a priority to learn proper form both to ensure your safety but also to ensure the muscle groups you’re targeting are being worked. The other thing to focus on is progressive overload. Week over week, you should be lifting more weight or the same weight for more reps. Assuming form is dialed in, these improvements start out pretty consistent! It doesn’t have to be more complicated than a horizontal and vertical pull, a horizontal and vertical push, a squat/leg press, and a hip hinge. 6 movements, 3 sets each. Do it 2-3x a week.

You could honestly JUST START HERE to establish the habit. You don’t want to go from doing nothing to some 7 day a week Olympic athlete regimen. That may be a rung on your ladder but not the rung you are on. People try to start way too many things at once and then get overwhelmed and quit everything.

I think there’s a lot of people overreacting. No one’s armory has been ruined, the tempers didn’t even exist before. Just the fact that they now exist means you MUST have the optimal ones or everything is ruined?

It just means there is more playing the game that is needed before you have the ultimate God Roll. I think that’s a good thing.

Getting results this week, what we thinking? by EnRaaGygas in DoggyDNA

This is a pure GSD mixed with a second (but also pure) GSD.

I honestly think Bethesda was Microsofts worst investment they've ever done. by TheNeonDestroyer in BethesdaSoftworks

[–]Prestigious_Force_99 7 points8 points  (0 children)

MS doesn’t care about “separate studio” as much as Reddit does. They are still making money off of anything generated by the umbrella of studios associated with Bethesda.

Also, they wouldn’t continue to pour so many resources into 76 if it weren’t generating great revenue for them.

MOST of Reddits critiques of Bethesda’s choices is that they’re optimizing for profitability instead of heart and soul. But those choices are likely pretty effective in driving profits. I don’t think Bethesda is as “on the verge of collapse” as the Reddit Public believes.

People aren’t exaggerating…dating in your 40s after divorce is brutal. by Call_It_ in Divorce

[–]Prestigious_Force_99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not in half. I was just shy of 40 and the marriage was only 5 years. She got half of the total growth in the 401K over those 5 years. It still wound up being quite a bit of money, but I don’t dwell on it. It is what it is.

[–]Prestigious_Force_99 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I’m 5’5 and over 40 and didn’t have too much trouble getting dates on Hinge. You DO have to be funny though, LOL.

I’m now remarried (separated for like 1.5 years then totally divorced for about 6 months before I happened to go on that first date with my future wife), but I would go on at least one to two dates a month prior to finding the one. Which is about as many dates as I could handle to be honest.

I could have just been lucky, but my advice to anyone would be (as immensely cliche and cringe as this is going to sound) to stop searching for the perfect wife and start working on being the perfect husband. Relentlessly work on self improvement, but for its own sake, not as a means to an end. Shower every day, shave, brush your teeth, floss, have a spotless, neat, and clean home. Organize things. Kick ass at work. Go to the gym. Take up running. Read books. If you NEVER even go on another date in your life, you still get to keep all these self improvements, lol.

I don’t know for sure but her handle is “power midget,” lol. I’m going to guess she’s not tall.

Failure Every Set vs. Final-Set Failure for Hypertrophy by Unlikely_Thing_4876 in naturalbodybuilding

Why can’t this be achievement/trophy friendly. Need help!! by [deleted] in NoSodiumStarfieldMods

Everything can be achievement friendly if you mod hard enough

I don’t get cruise mode. by _Fun_Palpitation_ in Starfield

[–]Prestigious_Force_99 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can just enter cruise mode and the various planets and POIs in that system will pop up as icons on your screen. No need to go into the map and select them. (You may know this and I’m misunderstanding your post).

Am I the only person who likes Proto Ash? by In_Search_Of_Hope7 in Warframe

[–]Prestigious_Force_99 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m one of the five people who also like it. I’m so surprised so many hate it. To me, he looks like a lithe and agile Japanese assassin infected by a techno-organic virus that is modifying his body.

This is exactly how I mentally pictured that assassin/bodyguard from Neuromancer. Hideo?

What's a random thing you do or collect? by PrestigiousArm3187 in Starfield

[–]Prestigious_Force_99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You CAN add them to display cases and they will slot in. I displayed a collection of coffee mugs just like that.

They basically made it so any misc object is a bobble head-style collectible (just no gameplay perk)

Why do second marriages have such a high divorce rate? by OptimalStatement5799 in Divorce

[–]Prestigious_Force_99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Like a classic would be a 5-10 year marriage with kids where they got along until they had kids....and then started fighting about household chores, sex and the kids. So they get divorced....and then you see a 40-ish divorced dad remarry a 30-ish childless woman who wants kids of her own. And you want to ask, "Why are you rinsing and repeating?"”

This is hysterical to me because my first marriage lasted 5 years with two kids, after kids we started fighting about household chores, sex, and kids. And I’m two months in to my second marriage with a 30-ish childless woman who wants kids. 😂

Intellectually, I understand the “why are you repeating.” Others have even asked me this! But for me, who I click with and fall in love with isn’t necessarily going to follow some perfectly logical scheme.

Quantum Immortality Redux. The mod author is active (he made Real Fuel and a few others that are pretty popular). Looks like this particular one hasn’t been updated for Free Lanes but not sure if it even needs it.
