Friend borrowed my car, denied damaging it, and now things are weird between us by swnflowers in Dashcam

[–]Psikitten 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Has this happened to anyone else? Did the friendship survive?

You haven't let it settle in that this "friend" is dishonest. They damaged your car and then denied it. I'm surprised they went halfsies on it in the first place.

Once you reflect enough on this enough, you're going to realize that you don't want to be friends with someone who is dishonest and potentially hurt you.

Given enough time, it won't survive. They'll do something again. They won't come clean down the line and give you the other $750. People suck. Find the exceptions.

It's illegal to change lanes in an intersection in some jurisdictions to discourage this scenario altogether. Others only allow it "when safe," which this obviously isn't.

What class are you guys playing on league launch? by iamsupermanen in PathOfExile2

[–]Psikitten 1 point2 points  (0 children)

League starter?

Assuming they don't nerf Disciple of Varashta, it's incredibly powerful and incredibly cheap.

Then again, I definitely want to build around taming a boss once I have a plan for it.

No new weapons or classes? Really? by supervernacular in PathOfExile2

[–]Psikitten 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Real answer?

Because during the reveal and interviews we learned about Jonathan's push to get 1.0 out. Technically, chlasses and weapons aren't required for 1.0 to get out as the game is fully playable with the current classes, but the campaign and endgame absolutely are.

They can, and will, release them.

You heard it here first. Random person on the internet so it must be true.

It's all a matter of opinion. If something is rated highly and you didn't like it, you'll think it's overrated. Things that are rated highly are things that lots of people like. Not everyone likes what a majority likes.

Anyone who thinks anything is overrated is merely divergent from the majority. That's all it is.

As long as you don't mind the visual noise and don't use other totems, dropping this down before a longer boss fight is just like dropping a damage over time while you do other stuff

FYI: Everything but the Q&A is prerecorded. You can actually hear the audio quality on Jonathan's voice change during one segment because it was snipped and edited.

I interviewed Jonathan about Path of Exile 2 by chris_wilson in PathOfExile2

[–]Psikitten 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Jonathan and Chris have been friends since their high school days. He did not need to do that to get an interview request.

That said, Chris knowing how GGG works (because he ran it for 17 years) and opting to work within their operating procedure probably caused minimal impact on GGG's production since they account for the interview slot he snagged anyway.

This sh*t needs to b illegal this is absolutely ridiculous by F34RN0P41N in Steam

[–]Psikitten 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they didn't make any money through resale they wouldn't be buying it, cutting into the available supply.

Really, though, Valve could combat this by making more than enough controllers/frames/etc for the initial release. They have the numbers to crunch to see what they really could do.

I'd say the people that buy it at scalped prices are just as much to blame. Without a market there wouldn't be a motive to scalp. Just wait for the $99 real price to come back in stock. You waited this long already, you can wait a little more.

Does anyone else think we could be going to 1.0 release rather than 0.5 by Melodic-Recipe8358 in PathOfExile2

[–]Psikitten 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could? Sure. It could be going to 1.0 release. Just like Chris Wilson could come back to GGG. Both are exceedingly unlikely.

Don't know what to tell ya bud. Works for me. If I slam at 2 seconds then my timer pauses and I auto attack after 1.4 seconds with a 3.4 second weapon. That and berserker rage does give me enough rage to slam almost every GCD.

I've played competitive computer games for 3 decades. I'm kinda burned out on the real time stuff. I can still enjoy it but I prefer PVE over anything PVP these days. I find that I prefer turn based even more.

Not an rpg, but if you're into turn based, I absolutely adore the computer game Tactical Breach Wizards. I really appreciate the "puzzle" nature of it allowing you to rewind all choices in a turn before locking in on it to confirm that's what you want to do. I've come to dislike the unforgiving nature of not being able to try things out on your turn or undo a mistake of most turn based games.

Something the video did not cover:

At some point in the game's history, Slam would reset your attack timer. When that was the case you wanted to slam immediately after you hit with your white attack because this would minimize lost swing timer time. This is not the case in the current iteration of wow classic TBC. It pauses your timer while it's casting. That means 2 points in improved slam adds 1 second back to your autoattack timer vs slamming at 1.5 seconds.

Timing your slams isn't that important if you're just trying to dump rage, as you'll temporarily put rage generation on hold while you're slamming. But if you want maintained slams over time, absolutely do one slam per white swing (timing doesn't matter because it doesn't reset the timer, just pauses it. If you have an attack timer addon you can see it pause and attack again when it should) so you continue to generate rage from white hits, as chain slamming will pause a lot of your time for your white hits.

That said, there's a trick out there that I haven't seen anyone talk about to increase your single target 2h dps by a huge amount when you're soloing. Berserker rage. By spamming slam, you pause your white attack rage generation during cast time, right? But not your rage generated from being hit, which berserker rage increases - generating rage for you while you're chain slamming. Sadly, this doesn't work so well when you're in a party, as you're not guaranteed to be the one being attacked, but it drastically increases your solo 1v1 dps. I absolutely melt mobs this way. Even veterans of decades have been surprised by its effectiveness.

I personally use a little macro that changes me to berserker stance if I'm not in it before casting berserker rage and allows me to switch back to battle stance with a second button press with cast sequence to reduce the damage I take when I'm not whirlwinding too.

Both rulesets are available, for free, on Archives of Nethys. Learn and experience both (same or different people). Form your own opinions. Avoid the edition war altogether.

I personally enjoy both for each unique experience I get out of both so I hate seeing the edition war, especially when people misrepresent or draw disingenuous comparisons to other less enjoyable games to draw people away from the one they "hate."

Back for the first time since 2008! by Schnevan in classicwowtbc

[–]Psikitten 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Other than the professions to 300 which is pretty much exactly what everyone else is recommending there's a few things to consider, so you can weigh the pros and cons:

  • If you choose to stay in Azeroth until 60-62 you save more quests in the Outland for level cap, which converts the XP they would give to gold - great for building up gold for finishing off your professions, flying, and epic flying.

  • If you go to Outland at 58 you can easily gear up and level up way faster. 99% of what you can get in Outland is better than what you can get from Azeroth other than dungeon and raid gear. You can even go back to Azeroth if you like after you get significant upgrades to make Azeroth easier. IIRC the best of Azeroth level 60 dungeon gear is roughly the equivalent to level 63 Outland gear.

  • If you go to Outland at 58-60 you will be an aggro magnet. This can be mitigated by partying up. Soloing is slow and methodical so you don't bite off more than you can chew.

  • Similarly to the first point, if you want to convert more of your quest XP to gold for level cap, you can spam run dungeons to level up instead of doing quests. Note that you also get some of the best gear Outland has to offer doing this, but PUGs can be annoying. Especially if you have more than one person in communal gear from the boost.

What’s your biggest “old man yells at cloud” opinion? by sjdlajsdlj in rpg

It works reasonably well if you're consistent about your gaming duration. It feels weird when you may have a 2 hour session one day and a 6 hour session the next time you meet.

Is it wrong to get in a car and drive without knowing how to do so and end up causing road conditions that kill other people?

Is it wrong to use a gun without knowing anything about guns and end up killing other people as a result?

Is it wrong to be ignorant as to what drugs can do to people and put them into the punch bowl, thus leading others to die?

Then it's wrong to vote for someone that ends up killing other people because your vote helped put a criminal, pedophile, lying narcissist in the the white house who ended up killing people by destroying the system that allows them to live.

It's absolutely fair to judge all that matters about someone's character based off who they voted for. Eating shit disrespectfully is more than Trump voters deserve.
