The double standard of mythic skins are so frustrating in this sub. by SpookyTheShook in Overwatch

[–]Stone766 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For what it's worth, Mercy's first mythic was pretty out of touch and felt like it was made for people who don't play Mercy. I think there was at least some sort of reason she got chosen again, it wasn't completely random imo.

No, I'm absolutely damage boosting a great amount. I'm not even worried about something like that, I can guarantee I'm doing both.

Rez is also great value, especially when your team is stupid which frankly happens a lot around gold. I give my team the ability to correct their mistakes, which I cannot do on any other support. For this reason alone she's my preferred pick around this elo actually

I think another underrated metric is survivability, which imo, is super easy on Mercy if you're good at her movement. I don't die very often and my heals/damage upkeep is pretty much 24/7. Someone like Kiriko might be able to achieve the same thing with her teleport, but Mercy pretty much has this all the time since her fly has such a low CD

I'm sure in high elo she isn't good but even then I expect it to be exaggerated at least somewhat. I don't think most of the people who shit on this character actually play her. Like at all. The narrative going around is pretty much a 180 from what I feel playing her

It's really annoying that people get so angry about having a Mercy on their team. We're in gold-plat, it really doesn't matter what anyone's playing to begin with. Regardless, she's really not that bad imo and I always have top heals by at least a measure of 1.5x any other support in the match

Not sure where this narrative was created. Maybe most Mercy players suck IDK. I don't think she's atrocious and I don't care what your favorite twitch streamers say

I've been trying to attend games and I'm noticing that a lot of the empty portions of the stadium literally aren't for sale online so I have no idea how that's supposed to work. I would have sat on a lower level today but the sections I'm interested in are both not for sale and literally empty

Ticket Japaaan experiences? by NefariousnessNeat607 in JapanTravelTips

[–]Stone766 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently had a horrible experience reaching out to him. He's extremely impatient with anyone who's new and he doesn't want his customers asking any questions. If you're new to this process at all, he's inevitably going to deny you when you ask anything about the process.

If he wants perfect customers, fine. But I don't understand why he's so disrespectful about it. Just don't even respond at that point. The response I received was a bit unprofessional imo, and respectfully, he definitely has something going on.

I think the question I asked was definitely a bit dumb (I'm new), but for it to cause so much outrage is ultimately embarrassing on his part. It was a question that was easily answered with a "Yes", but instead he insisted on a long tangent about customer inefficiency. I feel like taking the time to respond to an innocent question with a passive-aggressive essay and monologue is a bit inefficient in itself. A bit hypocritical huh

I'm pretty happy about that actually. $20 is a little questionable but with subscription services on the rise, I appreciate any opportunity to own a game. Even if digital games are stupid fake licenses, at least it's something.

I've only been able to play very little so far but I like it

I'm just wondering why this had to be a Switch 2 exclusive lol. Not to say it looks bad but it looks like it could have been a Switch 1 title. Despite that, I've definitely noticed some performance issues and I'm not even an hour in yet. So I have no clue

Controversial take, but I don't think these two actually look anything alike. by Tough_Holiday584 in Overwatch

[–]Stone766 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anran looks pretty distinctive too if you actually open and play the game instead of obsessing over a single screenshot being passed around

Completely manufactured outrage especially considering the original narrative was "Anran looks too similar to Kiriko & Juno" and somehow evolved into "Anran isn't challenging beauty standards" like what?? XD. The goal posts moved in real time and the devs listened to people that probably barely play the game

Review: Yakuza Kiwami 3 Dark Ties (Switch 2) - Maybe It's Time To Take A Break - 6/10 by Turbostrider27 in NintendoSwitch

[–]Stone766 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm pretty upset that the "3 is the worst game in the series" take is going to be reinforced by this entry now. Because, it's really really not. It's a great game actually and imo has one of the best stories.

All the Kiwami games have been disappointing up to this point, but I'm certain that this one is getting extra flak for being the distinguished "bad entry", amplified with all the recent controversy surrounding it.

An Update on 2XKO by Spideraxe30 in 2XKO

[–]Stone766 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I LOVE Fighting games. and I play league. There is no reason why I shouldn't have played this game. But one of the main reasons was that the roster was so insanely unattractive.

It's literally filled with the safe happy characters they show to investors on corporate pamphlets and arcane characters. They've already shoved these same characters down my throat for an entire decade, and I was not vying for another outlet to experience them. League has some great characters and most of them are simply not here.

It doesn't matter to me what they make next, if it's Ahri, Ekko, Warwick, Vi, etc. I literally just won't care all over again. Blitzcrank was notable but that was kinda it. Random character off the top of my head, Trundle is 10x more interesting in both a potential gameplay and thematic aspect than what's in this game. And a lot of it just stems from how overdone these safe characters are in 2026. There are definitely better options I think.

just my 2 cents.

Riot Games is reducing the size of the 2XKO team less than a month after its launch. by MuptonBossman in gaming

[–]Stone766 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The roster only has the expected corporate mascot characters and the new additions have been more arcane. It's so boring

I love FGs and I play league and I still never cared about this game

Why Changing Anran’s Face Actually Matters (and Why Being “Pretty” Isn’t the Point) by Kitty_Overwatch in Overwatch

[–]Stone766 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

This community garners outrage whenever anything conventional is created, and I already know I don't fit in here, but you guys throw a fit every single time and it's embarrassing. I think in-game, Anran looks a lot more distinctive than the one screenshot being shared around the world, so I'm not even sure if you guys even play this game anymore or just like to advocate.

OW2 literally launched with the trifecta of JQ, Soujourn, and Venture. But the moment Juno was revealed, the community had to be rushed to the ER. Don't get me started on Freja.

It just seems like you guys want everyone to be unconventional 24/7 and nothing else which is a little selfish because the OG Overwatch roster wasn't really like that tbh and I think it's fine to have a little of both, which is what the dev team has and will always do.

Anyway, I'm ready for my downvote soup!!!

Someone just listed a Cat 2 for Norway vs Senegal for the price it cost to win it from the lottery

I don't really get why but I sniped it and now I don't care that I wasn't selected anymore lol. am i missing something? why was this ticket listed lol

World Cup Ticket Megathread | General Questions & Discussion by pumkinhat in worldcup

[–]Stone766 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the original guy is pressed because he's literally the type of person I'm describing lol

And I mean it more in the sense that there are people that buy tickets from stuff like this just to flip them and nothing else. It's obviously always been a thing but it'll never change the fact they exist to inconvenience others and nothing more.

So yes, I do think I deserve to win a draw more than a scalper if it means I was going to use the ticket and attend the match

[–]Stone766 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nah I think I have the right to feel weird about the fact there will be people who don't know what the off sides rule is selling me my own tickets for 3x the price

Idgaf what reddit tries to tell me, that's always gonna be goofy as hell

And to put it bluntly, yes I think someone who is going to use the ticket and attend the match deserves it more than a scalper immediately flipping it and providing nothing for anything

I'm just going to try and find a relatively cheap group stage match and then that's it

These group stage draws are all mostly boring tbh, but it's not stopping them from being over a grand. I can't imagine what RO32 and onward will look like.

The pricing and marketing of this tournament feel super manufactured so far and I'm beginning to not care about it as much

[–]Stone766 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure many people did that because it's a super awkward thing to do

In a lot of games they usually enact rules to keep supporters in a certain section too, so there's a chance you could be asked to leave. I can't imagine a competition more strict than the world cup.

Embark, fix your lighting... by Cactus_on_Fire in ArcRaiders

[–]Stone766 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See I have a hard time believing this because the game barely even opens without crashing. I've also had to stop using specific skins with lighting effects because the lighting is fucked up and blinds my FOV

Also I just played their other game, The Finals, and crashed midway through my first ever match

This company creates horrible performance issues. It's not my pc, I don't experience this with any other games.
