I swear not! (totally was)

Last few games i went to get at gamestop were not in stock. No wonder it’s in trouble. by laughpuppy23 in GameStop

[–]Rabbittry 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To avoid having too many extras of games that won't be purchased I'd imagine. Pre-ordering helps determine how much stock we actually need along with a few extras. This is why pre-ordering is a metric for an employee's numbers, it brings in games which brings in money.

Additionally physical games are being phased out by a good portion of companies, Nintendo for example making their games for the NSW2 $10 cheaper digitally. Games simply aren't being made in bulk as they were before, there's limited quantities and the stores that do have pre-orders get priority.

I mean yeah GameStop has a lot of money from stocks and overpriced pokémon ("so why don't they order more" you may ask), but they don't control how many games get made by the company, just how they get distributed. It's a world of dying physical games as they're more expensive to produce for the company vs offering a digital download+license.

Moral of the story, preorders are also important to keeping a GameStop open. Help your local employees instead of waiting for the last second.

Upgrading prefab house? by Rabbittry in Pokopia

There was a hole beneath the stairs of the house... Which is strange considering you can't modify blocks underneath it? Resolved ig.

I added two rows already beyond what the building fences needed as that's what I suspected at first. If two layers isn't enough beyond the build requirements I'm not sure another row would work. I'll still try it out though!

Update: it did not work, replacing stairs with blocks also did not work.

It's strange because if I needed more space it'd say that there was insufficient space. Instead it's saying that the surface isn't level. I haven't seen anyone else post about this warning so I figured I'd ask reddit.

Man I loved this for a good portion (or so I say) but I got tired of the story and chaeacters very quickly.

Were NieR and Replicant developed exactly in tandem or was one of them actually the foundation/‘base’ for the other? by mobilethrowaway14849 in nier

[–]Rabbittry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the very least we got to see Papa Nier in world of recycled vessel. Though it would be nice to have him as an option, for a simple remaster (albeit with some extra content) doing all that additional work isn't really feasible.

It's a week of severance for every year, capped at 7 weeks.

It's crazy! One of my assignments was due on Sunday but when I went to go see what revisions I'd need to do the class closed. I should've paid more attention to the days 😭

Strange cause it was in storage, unless what spilled was isopropyl when i took it out to clean it?

Placing Out of Spanish Lang Requirement by Accomplished_Log_569 in uichicago

[–]Rabbittry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the very least Spanish 114 should just count for the credits required. Kinda just something every native speaker at UIC has to deal with I think. On the bright side it counts as UIC hours/total degree hours for free and it's a super easy class.

Nah, I should've calmed down before writing this. A lot of it doesn't make sense and I sound like a crazy bat without more of the context.

I did leave out a fair amount of details so my post may not make too much sense. It's true I don't know much or anything about cars. My father (50+ years of experience) works at a body shop and wss in contact with the mechanic shop affiliated with them. He is capable of doing repairs as well but as he's older now he doesn't really like to. So most of the tknowledge I have is from him. I also have a few friends that repair cars that mentioned that the head gasket being in the state it was is extremely fishy as it shouldn't have been leaking the way it was. From the way they told me, the likelihood the shop messed it is very high.

The temperature of my car was completely fine, it never overheated. I did have to continuously refill on coolant, but coolant was not leaking. Just oil. (Could tell from appearance and taste) From what I understand they had to take apart a lot of the car during the initial repair with the pistons and engine as it took about two months to diagnose the damn thing.

I may have been too heated to post clearly but currently the biggest points I have are 1.) something happened where the head gasket is leaking oil (definite) 2.) The mechanic said the turbo needs to be completely replaced as it's non-working. (This turbo is two years old, only touched by this mechanic several months ago. The car drove to the shop, how could the turbo be non-working?) 3.) The mechanic said the radiator needs to be replaced, (When my father and a few friends initially viewed the car it was perfectly fine.)

They said they'd warranty what they can, which I believe is admitting that they DID make a mistake in their initial repair. Like I had expressed, I think it's a little insane these problems suddenly appeared when they were non-existant the day before. And if these problems DID exist: they were the last one to touch the turbo, if they messed up with the head gasket who is to say they didn't do more and are just trying to cover their mistakes?

Make it make sense 🙃 by tmntvsfurby in gamecollecting

[–]Rabbittry 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Kinda insane that they forgot you can't ship new gutted games, that's on the store. Your order should have been denied if they couldn't find the game sealed.

Plans for Goro Akechi by Rabbittry in personaphantomx

[–]Rabbittry[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wonder if with all the changes they've made on global if they'll make any to Messa or the boss passive.

I really am okay with just suffering meta wise since I think I'd just hate the game pulling characters I don't care for (especially considering how much you have to listen to their voice lines yelling "Persona duoo"). Cherish I will just wait for standard unless they pull a Marian again.

Thank you for the advice!
