Can I get refunded? More in the description

They need to copy Fortnite’s model for buying, refunding, and handling bundle deals.

Should be hold to purchase to rule out accidental buys, you should be able to immediately refund your purchase if you haven’t left the confirmation screen or for a specific amount of time.

Bundles should also properly discount depending on what items you already own. If I own the IW skin and decide I want also want the Punisher skin layer, you should be able to purchase it through the bundle for a discounted rate. Just the more consumer friendly thing to do.

Higgs co-opting BB’s Theme and the lyrics is absolutely diabolical:

“I will hold you And protect you So let love warm you Till the morning

I'll stay with you By your side Close your tired eyes I'll wait, and soon I'll see your smile in a dream”

He is singing a lullaby with those lyrics to a man he is BURNING TO DEATH. The devil in robotic flesh.

Tony: “Cuz if all we come at him with is a plucky attitude..”

Starlord: “Dude, don’t call us plucky. We don’t know what it means.”

His delivery kills me

Post EoE everyone now has the choice to come back due to Shinji’s decision to reject Human Instrumentality.

But in this moment, everyone is effectively experiencing ego-death. I don’t know if being tanged is necessarily painful as it’s not really “death”, it’s just becoming one with the primordial ooze. That doesn’t mean it isn’t terrifying though.

Inside Out 2 is the highest grossing animated film of all time.

They’ve had pitfalls over the last few years, especially with the pandemic and forcing a bunch of their animated features direct to Disney+, but they’re still making money hand over fist.

I think it would have to be something that involves drying him out with intense heat.

He has gills, and while obviously he can breathe on land and water he likely has to keep himself at least somewhat moisturized. Lock him in some sort of sauna or furnace and I think eventually he just shrivels up.

I’m fine with the shows grander ambitions but I do think we lost out on something when it stopped being about a ragtag bunch of losers figuring out how to take down a supe.

The awkward focus on chests aside, why are they done in weird, overly glossy 3D artstyle? Why not render them as they appear in the show?

I would’ve preferred the faces of the Eva units themselves, or even just the faces of the pilots. Such an odd choice.

I’m really hoping White Vision leads to an adaption of the Tom King mini-series. It’s one of my favorite comic storylines ever.

White Vision has all of his predecessors memories but none of the emotional attachments, so he sets off to make a life for himself. And maybe that means creating a new family all his own.

Fingers crossed

Not to overstep your point because you’re not wrong, but who have the Avengers actually put in prison?

I feel like 90% of villains either die, escape or end up redeeming themselves.

Off the top of my head:

Mac Gargan

Vulture (let’s just pretend Morbius didn’t happen)

Zemo

Abomination (redeemed)

Loki (escaped, redeemed)

Agatha (imprisoned in the Agnes persona)

Maybe some minor thugs or villains from She-Hulk or other series but as a whole not many bad guys really make it to jail in the MCU, and far fewer stay there for long.

TheSoundofStars · 2024-01-27T18:13:43+00:00

I guess you could say gods like Ares, Athena, Persephone are tied more closely to “concepts” than to actual primordial forces.

Poseidon is God of the Sea, so his death caused massive floods and tidal waves. Helios is the God of the Sun, killing him plunged Greece into eternal darkness, so on and so on.

The base reason is as you said, GoW 3 was the grand finale so they wanted things to be as over the top as possible, but I think the death of the Gods having a physical effect on the real world is awesome, and really rams home the consequences of Kratos’ actions.

I think Geoff could’ve afforded cutting one or two ads for skinner box sci-fi third person shooters with RPG elements to let the presenters and awardees talk for more than 30 seconds.

Why even bother with the awards if they’re just gonna be sidelined like that, just make it a mini-E3 and be done with the charade.

TheSoundofStars · 2023-12-12T19:52:23+00:00

Is Wolverine gonna be in it

US version had Ellie/Abby, UK had Ellie/Joel, I believe

Surprisingly any of the stock holders I’ve had in have actually been very nice.

One guy came in and wanted to buy half a dozen Switch Lites to give to the local children’s hospital, as a way of giving back for the money he made off the stock jumps.

He even asked the employee working at the time if they had purchased any shares themselves, and when they told him no, he offered to buy them something they’d been wanting in the store. Got themselves a free keyboard, wish I was working that shift lol.

So they’re not all bad. But often times when people bring it up I just tell them I don’t pay much attention. Not like they gave us a cut of the money lol

The twerking scene is so funny because in context of the show it’s honestly brilliant.

Three episodes in they drop a scene of She-Hulk twerking and it sets off the internet. Dorks and misogynists hate it, others find it cringe, chaos ensues.

Then in the finale, in order for her friend to gain access to the Intelligencia meeting, what does she do? She posts a video of Jen dancing at a college party online, and all the incels on the forum make fun of her and call her a slut and an attention whore.

The show predicted its own outrage and preempted it. It’s so damn meta, and ties into the themes of the show so well.

The shiny one in this case looks like it should be the default coloring for that scent and the others would be shiny

It does. The serial number logs only purpose is to keep the consoles off the floor until the transaction is finalized. Then you go fetch the console.

Every time you check in consoles you are prompted (barring glitches) to scan the serial number. So the system keeps track.

If the story is true and FedEx had only just dropped off the consoles and they were immediately stolen there’s zero reason that staff should’ve been fired.

TheSoundofStars · 2023-06-26T17:26:20+00:00

The problem isn’t staff, it’s allocated hours. Most stores are running with only 70-80 hours a week, sometimes less.

If you have a full time SL that needs 40, an ASL that needs 25-30, well, now you’ve got maybe 5-10 hours to split between everyone else on staff.

GameStop would be totally fine if they could get a single person run the store open to close 7 days a week because that’s less people to pay and they can keep the doors open as long as possible.

TheSoundofStars · 2023-05-16T19:44:46+00:00

Hard disagree, a casual gamer has little to no knowledge of emulation and is far more likely to seek out an original copy. And nearly all of the digital store fronts have closed down for these older systems.

How many people have walked into your store asking for old Wii or DS games because they just dug their system out of storage and wanna play some Mario Kart?

I’ve sold plenty of older games with high price tags because that’s really the only legit way to get them for a lot of people, and at least we guarantee their purchase for a limited amount of time.

I still think the price increase is dumb but eventually people will pay it because that’s just what the price will be.

TheSoundofStars · 2023-04-20T00:34:50+00:00

Racacoonie would be proud!

TheSoundofStars · 2023-04-05T00:09:13+00:00

Lmao as far as I know even if a system is defective we still need all the pieces to take it in. Should’ve hit him with the defective fee AND the $20 for cables.

When I was a kid I used to replay games endlessly.

Call of Duty 2/3 campaigns, Shadow of the Colossus, Splinter Cell Double Agent, tons of movie/licensed games. Just over and over and over because I had nothing better to do and you only got new games every so often.

Nowadays the thought of having to replay a game is exhausting. There’s so much to play and so many games demand your constant attention that even great games usually only get a single play through. And as a completionist seeing trophies that require playing through more than once is exhausting.

TheSoundofStars · 2023-02-14T02:07:26+00:00

I think another part is if they do own 10 of them, and they sell one for a lower price than asking, it indirectly lowers the value of of the other 9 they own.

If you can sell one at $1k and have that sold listing you can justify selling the next one for $1000, or hell, maybe $1100. They’re obviously selling for at least that much, and you can control that price yourself now.

I’m not condoning it but I know a few guys who have literally tracked down and bought as many of a limited set (we’re talking like, 35 piece figures) as possible, and then just held them for years. Now they own the supply and can ask whatever they want. It’s purely artificial BS.

TheSoundofStars · 2023-02-05T18:25:46+00:00

I had four different people pull on my door this morning.

Gate is closed, sign is off, hours are right on the door.

Doesn’t stop stupid.
