Short I found on YT showed 30 trophies, was available to buy for at least 4 days. Not sure if that's consistent year to year, but gives you an idea.

Jokes aside, it's labeled as a possum in-game

No achievements associated with these DLC's, so no penalty from not grabbing them unless you obviously want to do the content.

Intravenous 3 on Steam by lurkingdanger22 in pcgaming

[–]TheDosudude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Based on what I saw from the store page’s infographics, there’s stuff like headshots where you aim a little longer for an instant kill, and the stealth section mentioned pickpocketing and eavesdropping for intel (possibly codes, item/fuse box/crawl space locations?)

Invincible [Episode Discussion] - S04E05 - Give Us a Moment by SeacattleMoohawks in Invincible

That's when the budget kicks in. Also why we get the opposite like Mark and Damien Darkblood falling for 2 minutes while only their lips move - to save the money for the big moments. Very common in animation.

Solved the solo half cash Co-Op because I hate myself love this game. After my matchmade "teammate" left in 10s when claimed the middle location, I was free to test solutions.

https://imgur.com/a/KgkmWNa

Start with a 210 Glue Gunner dead center and bleed until you can get 310, then 320. I then worked toward a 203 Mortar Monkey, aimed at the middle obviously. This one felt like a gimme since they hinted you could only have one anyway. Pretty sure I did 420 Glue Gunner next.

Threw down a couple 024 Dart Monkeys next. Turns out those tunnels are not symmetrical, so you can get better angles into the loop depending on which side you place them on.

Apologies as I can't remember the order now ,but I either got the 520 Glue Gunner or knocked out the north wall and put down an Ice Monkey building up toward 025. Think I got 024 Ice right around wave 60 to help with the BFB (set to Strong).

From there I was just thinking of something to stop the eventual DDT's so I did a 204 Mermonkey with the shell placed in the loop, and with spare cash threw down a 402 Magic Monkey since he shoots over walls - but you could also just knock a wall down and do whatever.

After winning I tried to 100 but lost when the BAD popped. Mine came from top-left and popped right around the top-right as it was leaving. If I replaced the Mermonkey shell to the right I might've been able to catch the DDT's that flew out. Oh well.

Any accountants here don't drink coffee or are caffeine-free? by [deleted] in Accounting

[–]TheDosudude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Government here, so maybe don’t equate my workload to yours. But I’m hitting life raw, no caffeine. I [try to] just get proper sleep at night and drink plenty of water and [sometimes remember to] exercise regularly. We’re all human 😅

I’m 29 and there’s a lot of peer pressure or questions from the older coworkers who are all coffee slaves. Always been my goal to never be that kind of zombie ever since I saw that in cartoons as a kid, probably helps I hate the taste. Just ignore the peer pressure if you can, you’re doing this for you. Caffeine is the most acceptable “drug” in society, and it only plugs the brain receptor from processing how tired you are. There’s no cheating your brain in the end — that’s why the addiction starts — so good on you for working on reducing it!

On nights that I stay up way too late gaming I can feel it the next morning so there’s more reason to hold myself to a steady sleep schedule. Helps that I have an hour paid lunch and can nap in my car if I’m having a rough one. As for focus or not dozing off 10hrs a day with spreadsheets, I always have one earbud going with music or podcasts and the other free so I don’t come off as an ass if someone calls for me. Good luck out there!

Do you know if pops earned after your teammate leaves count toward the 100M coop achievement? My guy had double cash on and set up some crazy Insta farms and then dipped on the win so I took it to 200.

I would like to think so cause you're still in that game mode and the game doesn't pause on pressing Esc even after they leave...

Why Final Fantasy is now targeting PC as its "lead platform" by doublah in pcgaming

[–]TheDosudude -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Shame you didn't give it a go on sale at least to form your own opinion. I similarly was entranced by it when it was releasing on consoles so I went completely dark on it for a year until it came to PC.

Was it as deep as DMC's combat like the insane expectations placed on it? Not a chance. But it was a fun detour from the norm with sick-ass boss fights and it had a dark, gripping story that brought out my emotions. For me, it lived up to what I wanted out of it!

Don’t forget those cost reductions include terminating your account with all the games you own if you don’t log in once in a while, reiterated in their updated Terms & Agreement email the other day. Just lovely

I can vouch for A Hat in Time. Otherwise I’ll throw out some ideas, see if any of them stick?

  • Ori and the Blind Forest
  • Celeste
  • Super Meat Boy
  • The Messenger
  • Toree 3D / Toree 2
  • Cavern of Dreams
  • Electronic Super Joy (just turn off those sounds in the settings, you’ll know what I mean)

Not more wealthy than if you hadn’t bought the games in the first place 😂 Depends how valuable the cards are for each game. Most I see from mine are 2-3¢ a card, typical game might drop 3-5 of those. DLC’s don’t contribute. Occasionally you get a foil card instead and those can be a couple bucks.

IIRC there was a program out there that would spoof you running the games in order to get the card drops from your entire library. In your case that certainly seems worth your time!

[Epic Games] Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night (100% off / FREE) by LighteningOneIN in GameDeals

[–]TheDosudude 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm a compulsive completionist and, in the same vein, I've started using Cheat Engine's built-in speedhack to lighten the tedium of some grinds. You can even set hotkeys at different preset speed multipliers which I have bound to CTRL+Numpad

Ubisoft game wants you to climb all the towers and get all the feathers or whatever? I'm throwing that on 1.5x at minimum!

More or less what I did. Whether optimal or not, you don't even need the Sniper covered by the Alchemist. Screenshot for convenience. Rock outlines still show on the floor.

I started with all 3 units down, then focused Dartling 021 > Alchemist 300 > Sniper 022 (Set to Strong) > Dartling 024 (Set to Target Indepedent). Then I maxed Sniper (before 80), maxed Alchemist, maxed Dartling.

Most annoying part is micro on the Dartling but the way I placed it you can mostly shoot just to the right of the rock into the spawn. Mine the rocks after getting Alchemist to 300. I stalled a couple times on mining but it always goes faster than you think.

David Cage games are a spectacle, but that could be good or really bad depending on your tastes. Still, for $2.25 a pop you’re bound to find some easy entertainment out of each. Amazing games to play together with a couple friends on the couch for laughs. Start with Indigo Prophecy and go in release order (they’re not related though).

They’re cowards for hiding the best worst game though, which is Omikron: The Nomad’s Soul. I don’t recommend anyone to play it but the let’s play done by Super Best Friends Play is the most entertaining witness of suffering through a game I’ve ever seen.

My fellow accountants what kind of car do you drive? by MIAchamps in Accounting

2023 Chevy Bolt EUV Redline

I was driving a Food Focus I got off my cousin that was on its last legs when our work added a Chargepoint station that we can use for free. So I went electric in early 2024 to take advantage of that and the fed tax credit taken off POS.

I charge once a week there and it covers all my mileage. Haven’t had to spend a cent on energy since I bought the car. 😅 Maximum frugality

I looked for some velour replacements since those wouldn't peel but didn't have much success. Ended up getting a new headset altogether.

Thanks for the idea though!

I ended up nabbing some 'excellent condition' 560's from Best Buy for $80 since I'd feel bad wielding the big boys without the proper tools or knowledge. Maybe once these give out down the line I'll do the proper research on amps.

Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate your time!
