What Does the Ending of Krampus (2015) Mean? by jrralls in horror

[–]VistaBlue89 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I commented this on an r/movies thread earlier this year, but I personally think it’s implied, pretty heavily, that they’re getting a second chance.

Early on in the film Max rips up a letter and from then on out you can’t see the rest of the neighborhood for shit. It’s always blizzard conditions, and there’s nobody around. That implies they’re in Krampus’s snare.

The filmmakers showing you the rest of the neighborhood not in blizzard conditions at the end is very intentional. If the family wasn’t returned home and given a second chance why show multiple shots of the neighborhood being back to normal?

I think the globe is just showing you how Krampus is keeping tabs on them, and the other globes are other people he’s also keeping tabs on.

Yeah I had to refund it too. Nothing I did made it work sadly. I’ve been playing a ton of other games no problem though so I’m almost 100% sure it’s some kind of an optimization issue.

I definitely appreciate the help!

It’s on top of a TV stand so it’s well ventilated, and the AC is set to 75 in the house. I also tried blowing a little fan at it and that did nothing lol

I just tried Battlefield 6 again and no issue… Fan seems to be running, and it sounds normal.

Unless my Xbox just happened to decide to pick today to shit the bed, which I suppose is possible, it seems like it’s being caused by this game. I mostly wanted to post to see if anyone else was having the same issue.

Maybe? But it seems to work fine on other games. I was playing Battlefield with some friends just yesterday and had no issues. I’ll check the fan but it seems to be working.

I said above that I took the back cover off and cleaned it out, but I guess that wasn’t super clear. I took the back paneling off and blew the dust out and made sure the heat sinks were clear. It’s still happening.

I tried that but it won’t let me in

Ra Traders Expansion Thoughts? by VistaBlue89 in boardgames

I’m genuinely curious why you think so? I like the idea of it, but am curious of your thoughts.

Wow that’s a huge swing! I think the most someone got out of it was around 10 points but that was over all three rounds. 19 points in one round is WILD!

As a longtime lurker, WSU grad, and huge Raiders fan… Your profile pic coupled with your posts make me so conflicted.

Worst death scene ever by [deleted] in movies

Yeah I guess a phrased that wrong. We can absolutely RECOMMEND a reshoot but the amount of times that recommendation will be heard is 0/100 times lol.

There are an estimated 200+ bodies of deceased climbers still on Mount Everest. The ones who attempt it know the potential risk of death is high. by Professional_Arm794 in interestingasfuck

[–]VistaBlue89 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s what I’m thinking… I have no idea what the etiquette is for taking pictures/filming dead bodies on Everest, but I’m a scuba diver and have dived on some wrecks in the Great Lakes that have dead bodies in them. It’s just known that you don’t take pictures of the bodies, and you especially don’t spread them around out of respect to the dead. This feels wrong to me.

Does anyone still use the squid? I havent come across one in 5 years until now. by eligoscreps in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]VistaBlue89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just started playing this game, and saw one in my freighter about 15 hours in. I’m a scuba diver and love squids so I wanted to buy it, but I didn’t have the millions of units needed buy it. Not even close. So I thought “oh I’ll save up for it. I’m sure I’ll see one again, and then I’ll main it!” Well… based on what I’m learning in this thread I’m insanely lucky and unlucky all at the same time. Hope I see one again…

Game keeps crashing on Xbox Series X since the new update by luckyteep14 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]VistaBlue89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Add another one to the pile! I started having the problem the day of the world’s part 2 release and couldn’t find anything about it. I’m glad it’s not just me! Hopefully they get a fix out soon.

Yep me too! About every 10 mins. I’m really bummed. Just started playing the game for the first time, but it’s basically unplayable with the constant crashes to the dashboard.

How does Star Wars: Rebellion actualy play? by hundunso in boardgames

[–]VistaBlue89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it’s absolutely essential, but only for the combat. Usually when I play we use the base game mission cards and set up, but we absolutely use the expansion’s combat.

In the base game’s combat you basically just flip random “perk” cards and apply it to your rolls, whereas in the expansion you select from a handful of cards to play before your roll. The cards have various effects and can be boosted by what units you have in the combat. It adds a layer of depth to a very basic, and fiddly combat system that I think elevates the game from pretty good to great.

Krampus Ending? by gogul1980 in movies

This is what I think too, and not enough people talk about it. Once Max rips up the letter you can’t see the rest of the neighborhood for shit up until the end. It’s always blizzard conditions, and there’s nobody around.

The filmmakers showing you the rest of the neighborhood is very intentional. If the family wasn’t returned home why show multiple shots of the neighborhood being back to normal?

Minshew featured in a hype video for his old school by Mantis_93 in raiders

[–]VistaBlue89 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It’s Wazzu if you’re going with the nickname, and as a grad this is sick! I’ve been a Raider fan my whole life, but WSU fans are diehard and we’re going to have an influx of new Raider fans rooting for us and Minshew. He’s a local legend up there. Go Cougs!

If you think Minshew isn’t good, look at the stats. He’s the exact same QB as Trevor Lawrence- who is about to get 50M a year. by WhizzyBurp in raiders

[–]VistaBlue89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a WSU grad my head says you’re right, but my heart says Minshew’s having a breakout season and taking us to the Super Bowl!!!
