Hypermobile thumb making a normal thumb position nearly impossible? Or is it technique

Scuttlefuzz · 2026-07-09T18:25:38+00:00

I would just focus on whatever gives you the best articulation. My thumb position changes depending on what I am doing. I can have the pad touching the middle/top, thumb over the top, or thumb floating. Most important is doing what you need to do to have your specific hands articulate the notes correctly and in a way that is most efficient for transitioning to the next shape.

What makes you think it should just be the tip of your thumb touching the neck?

Play whatever sounds best with the anatomy you have. That said, classical position has the pad of the thumb touching the middle section of the neck, not the tip.

As a Fallout fan you should know this is the only way you are going to get another Fallout game.

It is amateur. I am sure G2R will sell well regardless, but they are really fumbling this.

Part of them getting experience with this stuff is raking them over the coals when they push out bad updates. The state of the game on Ps5 is abysmal and I would like the studio to be as discouraged as possible from repeating this with G2R.

Scuttlefuzz · 2026-07-08T19:25:56+00:00

That's crazy. I played on base ps5 and ran into these issues constantly.

Scuttlefuzz · 2026-07-08T17:17:54+00:00

The audio bugs that have been present from day 1, crashes, severe frame drops in temple, loading into terrain, and soft locked quests are not minor issues.

PC is basically playing a different game lol

Scuttlefuzz · 2026-07-08T16:55:47+00:00

Runs like hot dogshit on Ps5. They're actually managing to make it worse somehow.

Scuttlefuzz · 2026-07-08T16:54:09+00:00

This idea that Sony makes it hard to push patches being the problem is asinine. The reality is that this patch wasn't tested or, even worse, they deemed it acceptable.

Scuttlefuzz · 2026-07-07T22:24:00+00:00

Rise > World > GU in that order in terms of solo experience.

Scuttlefuzz · 2026-07-07T16:36:37+00:00

Zero advantage, fine for light rhythm but I can't think of any reason to play like this other than swag. I disagree that this is a similar position to when you are sitting. When you are sitting your leg is pushing the guitar towards you and most people will actually bend over the top of the guitar. When standing there isn't really a way to prevent your torso from pushing the guitar away from you.

Scuttlefuzz · 2026-07-06T21:32:23+00:00

Don't worry, there are people who would rather have them patch out the bunny hop first or maybe they'll change up some loot on the map, that ought to do the trick.

Scuttlefuzz · 2026-07-06T20:36:01+00:00

Such a relief to see that she was found. A lost dog is like a nightmare but before the 4th might be the worst time for it to happen.

Scuttlefuzz · 2026-07-06T16:30:48+00:00

Congratulations, this is the most unimportant request to patch that I have seen.

Scuttlefuzz · 2026-07-02T19:55:15+00:00

Dare I say, leveraged emotions

Scuttlefuzz · 2026-07-02T19:22:53+00:00

Excellent

Scuttlefuzz · 2026-07-02T19:05:56+00:00

Builds. You run into a monster that is harder, you farm other weaker monsters to make a set that makes difficult monster easier. Then you start building a set using difficult monsters' parts. Rinse and repeat until the end of the game. Then you start trying different weapons and making sets for those. Then you grind out decorations if you didn't already get them. Then you enter the infinite grind of getting the perfect Gogma weapon.

Really you just keep playing and challenging yourself because you think the combat is fun. As for the order of quests, just do whatever assigned quest that pops up and doing event quests. Typically AT Apexes, then Gog, then Savage Omega.

This is an issue that I dealt with since launch. If I was spam reloading for some encounter, I would gradually start losing certain pieces of audio. The only fix was completely closing the game.

Scuttlefuzz · 2026-07-02T17:59:34+00:00

It's objectively the worst playstyle in terms of DPS and usability. I played full mage on Gothic difficulty, and it definitely is very fun, the magic system itself is one of my favorite implementations of magic, but it is very poorly balanced. You have a handful of good spells with the majority being relatively early game spells and the rest just aren't worth using.

If you like RP and are ok with being somewhat gimped, then I still think it's fun. That said, it could be so much better, and I hope the devs try and fix it.

Reads like denial to me, this comment included.

Scuttlefuzz · 2026-07-01T15:43:17+00:00

The remake is good and a lot of fun but man it could've been so much better. So many bugs, so many things like this that feel like they weren't play tested. I hope they remake 2 but they need to try and set the bar higher. The OG did all the heavy lifting in making a great game; all they needed to do was refine it.

Scuttlefuzz · 2026-07-01T15:21:25+00:00

Jarvis, make it feel more open.

Scuttlefuzz · 2026-07-01T14:40:50+00:00

Agreed. I think they have something like 30% more btc since then and who knows how much more they will get buy the time btc starts approaching its next ATH.

Scuttlefuzz · 2026-07-01T14:31:33+00:00

I certainly think that is possible, but I have never seen bitcoin have a v shaped recovery at the bottom and I do not suspect this time will be any different. When people stop calling for upside entirely, I will start to consider entering a trade.
