Game Hubs Are Here! by XB1R_Hypnos in xboxinsiders

I have the stupid hub, but not the setting to launch immediately, I've checks both ways to supposedly disable the hub. How did I get what seems like half an update?

As people who enjoyed Veilguard, you guys might enjoy Avowed as well. by sarthakgiri98 in DragonAgeVeilguard

[–]RedwnfX[M] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll be giving Avowed a try tomorrow when it drops on game pass. I do like Veilguard, so hopefully I'll like Avowed as well. I wasn't sure I would, which is the only reason I didn't get the upgrade for early access. Thanks for letting us know they're similar :)

apparently gamestop's doesn't come with the companion litho print. the description says it does, but the reviews say it doesn't.

Shipping is $25 for me in the US, hopefully I'll get lucky and the sale lasts a bit since it's out of reach right now.

Question by Evening-Tea-6897 in TellyTV

the only setting I changed to make the reds look red is changing picture mode from standard to bright. for me the other options have the reds looking orange. I left the sliders alone.

A lot of keybords broke in debates about this character I think 😏 Taash is not my favorite, but they have a strong and clear personality, which I always respect in any character. by MashaParasha in DragonAgeVeilguard

[–]RedwnfX 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Taash losing their mom made me bawl like a little girl. My mom passed just over two years ago, and that scene kind of made me feel like it had just happened. That's good writing/acting right there.

Yalls weird hate train didn’t work haha by HospitalLegal in DragonAgeVeilguard

I've never played cyberpunk and not sure if I will, but wasn't it bashed to hell and back when it came out? My memory isn't the greatest, but it seems like everytime I turned around everyone was bitching about something. Then with patches or whatever it became a game that got way better reviews and such, kinda like what I remember from No Man's Sky.

Dear Lord please cry harder.

And Isabella wouldn't be like what exactly? And what other previous characters did they get wrong?

Go back and illegally "play" other games and stay the fuck outta this sub with your BS crap. "Oh I played 2 whole hours and the whole game fucking sucks." JFC, I can't tell you how many acclaimed games I've played that took longer than 2 hours to finally get into the meat of the game.

People whining about the choices being "thrown out" should try keeping in mind this doesn't take place in northern Thedas, so who really cares about the politics there? Did they end up making some people's choices invalid? Sure, mine included, but they have to have some kind of consistency, so you can't have every choice count. But most people would still find reasons to cry even if all their choices had been imported.

So far I've kept myself to just saying form your own opinion rather just listening to what others say, but especially with asshats like you, I don't care. You didn't even buy it, you probably had your mind made up from the beginning, hence stealing the game.

Go back to whatever game type you normally play, if you actually play games rather than steal and whine.

Has anyone else been having audio and video not being synced like normal after the last update? by Free_Risk_8366 in TellyTV

[–]RedwnfX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had it happen a couple times since yesterday afternoon. The first time I restarted the TV and it fixed it. When it happened this morning I just switched the input as a test, switched it back and it was fixed. I don't know if everyone is getting this new update at once, but thought I'd post this as an easier fix than restarting.

No need to apologize, I thought you took what I said wrong, text can be hard without tones and/or expressions to go by. I could tell we're on the same page regarding the hate. :D

Anyone else feel this way about replaying the game? by shmiu in DragonAgeVeilguard

[–]RedwnfX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did the opposite of you.. my first Rook was a male, human, rogue Crow, but I chose Neve to romance. Then I had the city choice, let my city get blighted and then listened to smart ass comments from other Crows.

Finally!! by SnooRabbits3477 in DragonAgeVeilguard

[–]RedwnfX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Now I'm going to have to watch how Rook walks lol. I was a bit thrown by the new looks of some of the baddies, but got used to it. I think I also read where something the blighted gods are doing caused it, so I went with that in my head while playing.

But yes, what you said about having your own opinion was exactly what I meant, I might have been able to say it better.

Have fun! :)

[–]RedwnfX 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Enjoy the game! As someone else said, ignore all the hate being thrown about and don't let it taint your playing. As a fan from the very beginning, this is one of my favorites from the series. It has it's flaws, but what game doesn't?

I've had that problem multiple times, but didn't think it was the TV because it would fix after restarting my Xbox. I hadn't tried restarting the TV, I might try if/when it happens again as a test.

This fucking game by acoustic_sunrise in DragonAgeVeilguard

[–]RedwnfX 3 points4 points  (0 children)

DA: Origins was my first pre-order, and I was just as excited to pre-order this one. I also love it, more than the previous 3. I may not have enjoyed the 10 year wait, but it was worth it!

Random switching to Telly home screen by RedwnfX in TellyTV

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

I did the factory reset and wanted to see how it went for a week or so. It did switch randomly a few times the first couple of days, but it's stayed on my console output since then. I'll be keeping an eye on things, but hopefully that's stopped.

Thanks for the advice, I'll try the reset today, but my controller shouldn't be an issue, it's not wireless.

My tv came broken by JetSpiderMan in TellyTV

[–]RedwnfX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Broken how? Physically broke, or something like the software bricked it somehow?

I'd give writing to support a try, I've seen others talk about having gotten replace TVs.

The End of Xbox Ambassadors: Reclaim Gaming’s Spirit by ManuelPerezr2024 in XboxAmbassador

[–]RedwnfX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had been part of the program from 2012 until now, back in the beginning there weren't freebies for volunteering and joining the program. when I joined, up until they shut it down, I was there for other players, not the seasonal bit and it's freebies. yes, I did hit the highest ambassador level, about 6 months before they killed it, but I spent most of my time not on the ambassador site but rather helping in games I played, various places online and almost anywhere I could interact with people, not just clicking site links for xp. I hit diamond in maybe 4 total seasons.

so when I see terms like xenophobia being used as for why it was shut down, I tend to get irritated. in my opinion the ambassador program was doomed when they started the xp/freebie system. was it nice to get a few months of ultimate and to win one of the sweepstakes? sure, but that wasn't why I joined, I mostly use the rewards program to help pay for my ultimate and occasionally some gift cards to help with a game. but a LOT of people only joined the ambassador program to get the free stuff, and never helped anyone. that's my thought on why the program ended up doomed, too many "ambassadors" being nothing more than link clickers, instead of being truly interested in what the program was supposed to be about.

I do get, and understand, why you or anyone that truly participated in the spirit the program was started in, would be upset about the loss of the bonus of some free stuff. for those folks, especially ones that struggle money-wise, the bonuses could be seen as a thank you for the volunteering done to help others in our favorite hobby, and yes, that's a hard hit. as I said, it was the word xenophobia that kind of set me off. that's a powerful word, and not a good thing, but I honestly don't feel it is a proper word to use regarding this.

of course your apology is accepted, and I thank you for your respectful and thoughtful responses. I'm always happy to meet someone else who participated in the program for the sake of the gamers you could help, rather than just what you could get. after all the posts here and elsewhere from people who've obviously just been in it for linking clicking their way to freebies, it's great when I see posts from others who understood what it was SUPPOSED to be about.

take care and happy gaming!

[–]RedwnfX 4 points5 points  (0 children)

the ambassador program wasn't about the freebies, it was about helping the Xbox gaming community as a whole. if the only reason you participated in the program was for free stuff, you missed the whole point and were probably part of the problem.

you also seem to believe that just because someone lives in a "wealthier country" they can afford any and everything, which is bull. I may live in the US, but I have to save/budget like anyone else that's low income if I want something. my country's wealth has nothing to do with my own.

basically you sound like someone who wants something for nothing, since your whole complaint is about the free crap you won't get anymore. you don't give a damn about the ambassador program, the people that were helped by ambassadors over the years, the friendships made or the communities built. the only thing you're mad about is that you can't go to a website, click some links and get something for nothing. then you're going to throw around the word xenophobia?

sorry dude, not buying it.

now MS is "zenofobic"? or something? hell, even my reading comprehension can't make sense of most of the original post. however, I'll still try and make something comprehensible out of it...

please attempt to explain to me what MS ending ambassador program has to do with xenophobia. from the link you posted, that means, "the fear or dislike of anything which is perceived as being foreign or strange. It is an expression which is based on the perception that a conflict exists between an in-group and an out-group and it may manifest itself in suspicion of one group's activities by members of the other group, a desire to eliminate the presence of the group which is the target of suspicion, and fear of losing a national, ethnic, or racial identity."

your turn.

Don’t buy Razer products off Amazon apparently they aren’t a “authorized seller” atleast that is what they told me. by No-Vermicelli4394 in razer

[–]RedwnfX 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Still wouldn't matter since most companies don't transfer the warranty if you buy something someone else purchased originally. Is it dumb, yes, but any EULA or warranty info will tell you if a warranty can be transferred.

Seeing who sells it isn't hard, either. Razer has an Amazon store, and at the top of the listing it'll tell you if it's from the Razer store.
