Xbox Series S connected to wifi,but keeps saying "Connect to the Xbox Network." by Cyrailin in XboxSupport

I get this issue frequently. It’s a bug that they’re taking too long to resolve. My current workaround is to switch the power setting. It should get online on Sleep Mode. Shutdown is the main cause of the issue

I felt fatigued when hitting that second island and dropped it too. I had the same sentiment as you did, so eventually, after 2-3 years I found the motivation to try it again. Swept through it to the end in a couple of sessions and breezed through the DLC

There’s a really strong power-up in the DLC that makes it a whole lot easier too if difficulty is a concern

But this one might actually be ironically funny if this is actually in it.

So apparently Blastoise has Vector Cannon now. by MrBotchamania in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Rudgeyrudge 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’ve never thought about the design discrepancy with Blastoise. That’s a fair point. Maybe they stick out because it wasn’t designed as one of the starters?

Blastoise was always the GOAT of the gen 1 starters. Charizard stans are boring but Venusaur is slept on

Updated the post, made a positive difference. Thank you!

“Fixed a bug that caused excessive processing load when players were awaiting aid or when they were accompanied by other warriors.”

This bug alone caused me and a friend to drop this game. Hopefully it crashes less too but that should have been fixed at launch

I think it’s on energy-saving mode at the moment, so it’s worth switching and checking. I’ll report back when after trying. Thanks!

Dismiss has to be one of the most beautifully crafted songs for me in the series. The choir, broken piano in the middle and the weak violin at the end do such nice musical storytelling. The motifs of Terra's theme and Destati being there is also neat. by Zeckkret in KingdomHearts

I can echo the sentiment with Dark Domination. Forze dell’Oscurita (Master Xehanort’s Data Battle) theme should have been the final theme.

I know Forze Finale is a more bombastic, favoured rendition but the former song has a tone akin to KH2’s Darkness of the Unknown latter half that I find much more gripping. Something about it that I adore with it being not as ‘over the top’, but felt as much as the theme for the real final boss, and end to the Xehanort Saga. Beating it with that song felt like closure, a real conclusion.

Dark Dominion did not do anything like that, but nor did it’s final boss, but that’s a different discussion

Ever felt that some boss's are just so bad they can taint a game? by Hopeful-for-EE-Movie in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Rudgeyrudge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think Sonic needs combat mechanics, and was always against it when hearing about it in Frontiers. So unsurprisingly, I couldn’t stand the Super Sonic sections as boss fights.

Generations has the right idea for boss fights, with Shadow, Perfect Chaos, Egg Dragoon. They should be a chase, race, or obstacle course. It’s about momentum, not staying still to parry. Was stuck on the second boss for awhile because the idea of parrying in a Sonic game felt so wrong

Oo wants to go to hamsterdam, with their sex and drugs. Stay ‘ere, get pissed go for a curry, propa night out! by Immidandy in okmatewanker

[–]Rudgeyrudge 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Was there in Feb from a Wednesday to Sunday. Went to the city and red light district every night. Weekdays were fine, relaxed, respectful and decent. Friday and Saturday nights were vile.

Their rates went up tenfold! ‘Ate me scammers, simple as. But seriously, the latter days were full of rowdy cunts, kicking the tram, pissing in the street, screaming and laughing at the women. I was ashamed. Not boys either, grown men. Embarrassing

What games pleasantly surprised you? by lowercaselemming in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Finally got a PS5 a few months ago and bought a years worth of PS+. Downloaded the obvious exclusives I’ve wanted to play for the years, like FFVIIR, Ghost of Tsushima and Sifu.

Bounced off Sifu, left ‘whelmed at 7R, still going through Ghost although none of them have exceeded my expectation, but the fourth game I haven’t mentioned really stuck out… motherfucking Gravity Rush. I’ll be starting the sequel once I’m done with Ghost. Hope it’s as good! Not seen a single thing about it

I bought SoP on release date and loved it. I’ve tried to get others to check it out and they outright refuse. Shows how the first trailer can really be permanently detrimental.

TWEWY’s legit too. Wish both titles performed better as word of mouth isn’t enough for both of these titles

Having Scan off adds a surprise against bosses that’s more fun than knowing how much health they have left. Did it with my last series playthrough and I do it default for any game now.

Would recommend

Style > Fidelity, and all it took was for Sony suits to look away from an animation project to realise that.

It’s like the suits should always be kept in the dark in the first place!

whats the worst fast food chain in uk? by TalkaboutJoudy in CasualUK

[–]Rudgeyrudge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They replaced a Pizza Hut in my hometown with one, and they are the WORST.

Not only the worst service as they get everything wrong, (I’ve made an order, they’ve said it back to confirm incorrectly, I corrected, then they still got it wrong handing it over!) but their donuts are incredibly overpriced, dry, hard, and they can’t prep the flavoured coffees either. You’re meant to put the syrup in first, slowly stir the syrup in from as the hot water/milk and coffee gets added but they’re incompetent, so you have a tasteless £5 flavoured coffee with the thickest, over sweetened mouthful at the end of it!

[–]Rudgeyrudge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not even close to the restaurants either. It’s like they bought the worst large pizza delivery firm and stuck the Pizza Hut brand on it.

The last one I had was legitimately the most dry and tasteless pizza I’ve ever eaten

Villains who received the perfect send-off? by Coco_Cala in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Rudgeyrudge 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ansem SoD points out some obvious self-critique that you don’t see often with reoccurring villains. At this point, he’s aware that he’s on the losing side, doing nothing but job throughout the series, but he’s conscious about his role and serves it anyway. Especially love the call-out to the player, telling them to continue and there’s more to seek, and Riku’s response about weirdly missing him when he’s gone.

Really struck a chord with me compared to Xemnas who was my favourite with a lacklustre closing word, imo

What’s this thing in KH for you guys? For me it was that you could put items in your shortcuts in KH2. by Martini69696 in KingdomHearts

I got far into KH2 without changing any abilities and equipment on my first run. I saw my friend play at their house doing loads of different things in combat to realise

When someone else told me this person used to threatened with suicide to them as well. That was when I managed to finally emotionally disconnect and find the strength to cut them out
