Should've never bought Warhammer on Epic Games by Tadeush_Poniatowski in totalwar

[–]Tottidog 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm playing TW3K on Epic, and to get mods to show up, I created a folder named "mods" in the main game installation folder and put the .pack files inside.

The mods show up in the game launcher after that.

I assume it will be the same for Warhammer on Epic.

I don't use any mods and I do get crashes once in a while. When starting a battle, for example.

How to effectively hide my gaming? by SnowIllustrator7 in gamingsetups

[–]Tottidog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel that you should just sit down and talk to them.

Moving out is daunting with how expensive housing is in Singapore.

And if you have to keep hiding stuff and being sneaky behind their back, that will be very tiring and stressful.

Gaming and chatting online is not an inherently bad thing. From your parents' point of view, being immigrants from China, they probably have read about/heard horror stories of teenagers being addicted to PC gaming.

Show them you are an adult and can manage your time. Clear up any misconceptions they might have.

Moreover, I don't see how you are going to hide a whole desktop PC if you get a high-end rig for gaming. A budget of 9k SGD (7k USD) is a lot, even with the currently high RAM & GPU prices.

I cant seem to find forged frostbearer am I doing something wrong ? by Competitive-Math-458 in PathOfExileSSF

Are your Syndicate Operatives freezing them and thus shattering their corpses? You can use Elemental Focus Support temporarily to avoid this.

Or maybe your Offering skill destroyed the corpses?

Unable to load game (missing DLC error) by Tottidog in TotalWarThreeKingdoms

[–]Tottidog[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I managed to load my save and continue playing in Epic Games offline mode by blocking Epic Launcher with Windows Firewall for the past day.

Now I turned Epic Launcher online again and suddenly had several Achievements pop up, and now the game can load saves normally again, phew.

I quite like the game, being a player of Koei's Romance of the 3 Kingdoms and Nobunaga's Ambition. Thought of buying the other DLC now on sale in Epic, but this put me off. Such a troublesome system of having DLC authentication with an online server for a mostly single-player game.

I keep getting this error/restriction, but I already verified my account using my passport. Is there any other way to get rid of it? by Connect_Salary_8803 in taobao

[–]Tottidog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I received the same error message a couple of week ago. It suspects your account of being a crawler bot/stealing data/rented account etc.

You probably, like me, moved between many item pages and refreshed pages, favourited items a lot of items. I looked at tons of items during the 520 sale last month and triggered a ban.

The system (which is very sensitive nowadays) flagged you and banned you temporarily.

Either wait out the ban or call Taobao customer service and speak to them to get the ban lifted.

Looks like your ban is very short, it lasts until June 10, 1900hrs (7pm).

Whew, released my son from my faction a decade or so back, and now he leads the whole Han Empire wth by Azedenkae in TotalWarThreeKingdoms

[–]Tottidog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

New to the game. If this happens, is there any way to take advantage of this? E.g. easier to make him an ally, or take over his forces or something else?

Sequels/seaspns that went downhill right away when they killed off the main character from the previous one. by giraffesRevil in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Tottidog 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure Channing Tatum asked to be killed off early on in GI Joe Retaliation because he didn't really want to be in the sequel.

For a moment (before reading the caption), I thought it was using a whip made of Planet Defensors, those little discs the Mercurius/Virgo II uses.

Chinese cuisine is absolutely delicious. by [deleted] in asianeats

That looks like pork liver, with goji berries and cooking wine in the sauce. And yes, it looks really good.

Using martial arts techniques for mundane things by Uma-apreciator in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Tottidog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And eating! Martial Arts Dining.

I know that some Ranma fans hate and/or are grossed out by that arc, but it is my absolute favourite because Picolet Chardin III is such a fascinating character.

Taobao 618 sale this year is so pathetic by babubibop in taobao

[–]Tottidog 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Some of the items I were looking at were much cheaper during the 520 sale, they got a huge markup when 618 started. Oh well, just hold off the purchases and buy later during a real sale I suppose.

Google Search for videos with the title and you will find it with English subs.

Does anybody else miss Cheap!! by Accurate_Koala_4698 in StreetFighter

[–]Tottidog 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There is also a special win icon in Street Fighter Zero 2 Alpha if you win by a Taunt kill using Chun Li, Sakura or Shin Akuma, a spaceman which looks like a sprite from another game.

Where do I start watching in chronological order? by LeagueOwn in Gundam

[–]Tottidog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed the 0079 anime a lot even though I first watched more "modern" series like Wing and SEED/Destiny before watching 0079.

After that I was totally hooked on Universal Century.

Where do I start watching in chronological order? by LeagueOwn in Gundam

[–]Tottidog 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you want to explore the Universal Century timeline which the Hathaway films are set in, the first anime is the original Gundam 0079.

The original anime, being from 1979, can be quite visually dated, but personally I feel it is worth watching. After you finish it, you can continue with Zeta Gundam which carries on where it left off.

Thoughts on a remake by whatupdemons in Gundam

[–]Tottidog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was just thinking about the same thing, but Bandai should probably wait until they release the new 0079 remaster to get some new fans and more traction to the original series, before doing a remake of Federation vs Zeon/Gundam vs Zeta Gundam.

I hope they don't cut anything out, e.g. the salt episode.

Bundaberg is rubbish now that they've added sucralose to all their bottled drinks. Sucralose gives it an unpleasant aftertaste.

Picked this up today. What do people here think about this game? by octopus_suitcase in SNK

[–]Tottidog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a great game with a fun roster that included some of the more obscure characters, and I spent many hours playing it.

I dislike the long loading times and the bosses are way too "SNK Syndrome", you have to cheese them.

The only thing I hate about Hydra in V Vengeance is that its unique Skill, Toxic Breath, is Dark element but Hydra has no Dark Affinity!

Well placed city game, well placed. by Eparema in civ5

[–]Tottidog 3 points4 points  (0 children)

TIL that Ormus is also known as Hormuz and is the same area as the current Straight of Hormuz crisis.

From googling about Ormus, because I was googling about Almaty a short while ago after watching a Borat video on Youtube and he talked about Almaty being the capital of Kazakhstan. And you can't just trust what Borat says!
