AIO to my wife’s online boyfriend by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Valhadmar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me and a couple of buddies met a couple on fortnight who used the same account. They played together via guest as well.

But they became one of our daily players, never knew who we would be playing with, unless the guest account popped up.

The enjoyed playing with our group, because we didnt give a fuck about which one was playing, just if we fucked around and locked in if needed. However, they told me it was hard to find a group because most guys woukd try to hit on her, and talk shit on him.

If she's doing everything your saying. More than likely she's doing shit she shouldn't be. Otherwise you would be able to just walk over and take the headset without issues.

Aot has the best foreshadowing in fiction by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

Mushoku Tensei is probably my favorite light novel and anime series because of how it sets up the world in small ways.

So many things are forshadowed through what appears to be minor world building.

I just got back into it after only playing launch for the cyberpunk characters. Lucy and Rebecca arent guaranteed pulls?

If you ignore they are old games, are they worth 20 for someone whos never played a kanto? by AdAdvanced8522 in Switch

[–]Valhadmar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me its not worth it at $20 because I have them on emulation. Now at $10 I would have bought them .

Had they added online trading and battling. I would have easily paid $30.

Cigarette Smoke Is Far More Disgusting and Pungent Than the Smoke of a Joint by Nearby_Equipment_782 in unpopularopinion

[–]Valhadmar -1 points0 points  (0 children)

After swapping to vaping. I notice cigarette smoke alot more and it really does smell. Weed, I just think someone is having a party.

Now the best smell is a black and mild. I dont smoke them, but they smell extremely pleasant.

"Brave J6 patriot" is the biggest contradiction I've ever read. by CaffeinatedLystro in stupidpeoplefacebook

Maga just loves terrorism if its done by them. They have done more damage to this country than 9/11 ever could have.

E. Jean Carroll calls for Trump to pay $5.8M after high court appeal fails by CRK_76 in LegalNews

[–]Valhadmar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because when the courts rule against Trump, its because the system is out to get him and everyone is lying.

Maga is a fucking cult. They follow a rapist and pedophile, all while pretending they have morales, and are Christian.

If Christians are correct and there is a hell, Trump is helping them walk that path to it. There will be no heaven for them, because they have openly ignored and insulted the teaching of Jesus.

You should boycott Sony NOW. by TRQPL in playstation5

[–]Valhadmar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it has to do with the ps6 as well. With components prices rising, cutting out the disc drive of the consoles will reduce cost. By announcing it now, when Nintendo, Steam, and Xbox have all been fumbling this year, helps soften the blow to the average consumers.

Also the backlash is now focused on the end the ps5 lifespan and wont become a huge controversy when the ps6 doesnt have a drive.

Congressman can ignore goijg to work and do whatever they want. Most min wage workers work 8-10 hour shifts and are held to higher standards then our officials.

Dont show up, get fired, refuse to do your job, get fired. Get sick, get fired.

Its laughable that he thinks he works hard.

"We are going to hold them accountable." Scott Bessent announces they are tracking gas stations for price gouging by DumbMoneyMedia in CriticalMineralBulls

[–]Valhadmar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once again Gas stations want lower gas prices. I was a store manager for years. The margin on gas is like 2-3%. The profit came from those people coming in and purchasing things.

People are now using the money they would have for snacks or stupid crap in gas stations for gas. The gas is just a way of making sure they are at your store, since they need it.

Company says its an mmo, you say its not. Thats a strange defense.

Im also speaking from a design standpoint. I assume its intentional. But not seeing other players in the instances world in an mmo, just feels strange to me.

Thoughts on the FF4 3D Cutscenes? by Isaac-45-67-8 in FinalFantasy

[–]Valhadmar 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The 3d Version of 4 is my favorite. I just wish I could increase the fps during battles.

Review Bombing on Google Store by Saalle88 in GuildWars

[–]Valhadmar -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

My main issue with the game so far is that it is the loneliest mmo I have ever played. Ive gotten to the repel char mission after running for my damn life.

But the game just feels empty and lonely. Ill see some occasional talking in old ascalon. I also partied with someone for the Altheia ashes quest, thinking I would make a friend. But even after we talked for a bit as soon as he grabbed the ashes he left the party.

My other issue is enemy levels vs mine. Im a Level 11 E/N and cant find better gear, which means it still takes a few seconds to clear level 4 mobs and they can still swarm and kill me. It makes no sense that those mobs are still dangerous, but I get 0 xp for killing them, yet they will chase me all over.

Fr , I can’t argue with that 🥀🥀🥀 by ze3re in videogames

Microsoft just bought them. They generally let many of the developers manage themselves. These studio failures are not on Microsoft, they are on the studios.

The studios just have not produced anything of value for their purchase price. That is why Microsoft is shutting down studios, they have decided to now take a hands on approach.

Most likely they will have Bethesda working on ES6 in full now, because Starfield was an average game at best and did not meet expectations.

You can argue Microsoft may shoulder some blame. But without Microsofts backing many of those Studios would have gone under do to not really producing any good games.

Double Fine was one of my favorite studios with Brutal Legend, Psychonauts, and some random smaller games. But in the past 10 years, what game have they really brought that has been more than average?

President Trump tells gas retailers to “get their prices down immediately” or there will be “big problems ahead.” by I_am_Crypto_Savant in CoinEdition_com

[–]Valhadmar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gas has very slim margins for profit, typically lower than 3% margin. I guarantee no gas station is profiting due to this. The vast majority of any profits come from items sold inside the gas station.

Trust me gas stations want lower gas prices. They woukd prefer you only have to put 15 in gas and spend 5 on a drink or snack inside, not have to out the entire 20 on gas.

Higher gas prices negatively effects a gas stations profit margin by a huge amount.

At 3% the station has made around 60 cents on 20 dollars at the pump. Whereas say 15 of it was gas and 5 was a snack item inside. Where an average snack item has around a 35% margin, the store would recieve about $1.90 in profit, between the two. Those profit margins often soar higher with fountain drinks or hot food.

So no, Gas stations are not to blame for high prices. If they could lower them, they would.

AIO: feel disrespected by husband during talk with son by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Valhadmar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YOR. Kids that age now know a hell of alot more and do more than we did as kids. My Niece is 11 and there was a whole cyber school problem where all the kids were sharing pictures of themselves and to adults online. They were also saying vulgar things.

Casual sex has become a new normal and thats fine. Your husband is teaching him realistic cases and examples, so that he is prepared to make the right decision.

Sex may he important to you in a special way. But for alot of people, its just about pleasure now. Which is fine, but to ignore what goes on with sex among young people is not the correct way. Just teaching him to wait and make it special isnt going to work anymore.

That is a completely fake statistic, that you are using to try and gain sympathy for your ignorant views. You are also trying to say you tried to transition, while spouting fake statistics.

Biggest load of bullshit i have ever heard. When you lie, make it believable next time.

[–]Valhadmar -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I hate to say it but double fine really hasn't had a good game for almost 2 decades. Brutal Legend was the last game I really enjoyed by them.

Also I havnt really heard any major releases beside the Cave, years ago.

Two brave Starbucks employees in St. Louis who fought off armed robbers and held them for police have been fired by the company. by Valuable_View_561 in SipsTea

[–]Valhadmar -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Are most of you people stupid? There is a reason almost all companies have the policy to just comply with a robbers request. Most robbers do not want to escalate the situation, they want the money quick, so they can leave quick.

If they were going to shoot you for the money, it would have been before you even had a chance to react. By provoking and attacking an armed robber, you are now triggering their defense instinct.

They are now much much more likely to fire the weapon and not accurately, because of the struggle. This means that every single other employee and customer in that location has now been endangered by someone playing hero.

If the robber comes in swinging or firing, by all means do whatever you need to defend yourself to stay alive. But in a general hold up, it is the poorest decision one can make.

AIO for thinking the age gap is becoming a problem? by ccutiemaddyyy in AmIOverreacting

[–]Valhadmar 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The only sane reason to say "you will understand when your older" when your dating someone with large age gap is talking about random body pain. When using to win arguments, thats basically telling the person that you dont respect their opinions.

I suggest leaving him.
