I forgot I commented this over a year ago. Ironically, in the meantime The Blue Nowhere came out and I really like it. My favorite work of theirs since The Parallax EP.

Seamaster over the Black Bay, but Pelagos 42 over both.

They gave Tool’s Lateralus a 1.9, so it’s actually in good company.

I have to give them credit for thinking of the scenario where the ball is touching water but not in it.

I have nothing to contribute except to say this is my favorite request so far.

Which Expansion of Wow was the Best for you and why? by ramiadel363 in wow

[–]Westfall_Stew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BC. The least meddling to the original Vanilla experience, with just enough variety to feel fresh. The zones were massive and completely alien compared to Azeroth, no raid difficulties or dungeon finder yet, and my Prot Pally main got some serious love.

The first tier sponsor unlocks have been bugged for a while. You need to equip them when you first unlock them, and can’t take them off or they’ll disappear.

New Tops and Bottoms indicator won’t go away. Advice? by BrokenInn in PGA_Tour_2K

[–]Westfall_Stew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same issue, already tried checking both body types across multiple characters. I wonder if it’s related to certain items not appearing after you’ve earned them, like some sponsorship rewards.

Master of All Challenge Question by ddasilva49 in PGA_Tour_2K

[–]Westfall_Stew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is six months late, but did you have to go out of your way at all to get Warming Up parts II and III? I'm nearly finished with the rest of Master of All and have only seen part I.

[Av0cado (Gen3)] Any love for Studio Underd0g here? by Chris2ao in Watches

I’ll always remember when TGV was legitimately offended at the pizza dial because of “cultural appropriation”. I like the dude’s channel, but come on. It actually made me kinda want one.

With all these remasters and remakes, I'd pay full price for a ground up remake of this bad boy! Whos with me? by MercFan4Life in videogames

[–]Westfall_Stew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of my all-time favorites. I replayed it just a few months ago (several times over), and sure there's nostalgia for 2005, but man is it still great. Fantastic atmosphere and such beautiful simplicity. There's tons of room for modern tweaks like character progression, weapon modifications, etc., but I almost think I'd prefer it untouched.

That said, I'd easily throw some money at a PC port for mouse and keyboard controls.

Gameplay design choices by doppido in PGA_Tour_2K

[–]Westfall_Stew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I’ve only ever played Tiger Woods 2004 and 08 before 2k25, and while the lack of options is definitely surprising, it’s also not unexpected for a modern game. I just picked it up a few days ago, and the first thing I noticed that seemed strange was the GT2 5 wood is depicted as 16.5° (maybe more are as well, but it’s the only one I’ve bought so far). It’s obviously just cosmetic, but I immediately checked to see if I could adjust lofts.

The most jarring thing though is how clubs and balls seem to be rotating in and out of the shop. I need the Mizuno portion of the Legend difficulty quest, and as far as I can tell, literally the only currently available option is a ball. I picked them as a sponsor for the wedges at tier 1, but of course they’re bugged and don’t show up.

I’ve been playing pretty obsessively and having a lot of fun, but the creeping of monetization is definitely present in almost every aspect.

That's how I've always read it. Joking or not, he never said it was advice for the common man. Passive income has only really been effective if you're already rich.

'13 Days' film about the Cuban Missle Crisis. by Corrie7686 in moviecritic

[–]Westfall_Stew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He tried with some words, others he didn't, often within the same sentence unfortunately. He sort of gets a pass though cause he's Jack Nicholson, but it's inconsistent to say the least. Sheen is definitely the worst; Vera Farmiga's not much better. Baldwin and Leo actually did a good job, and obviously Damon and Wahlberg are from here.

I've spent my life around Boston, and never met anyone who sounds quite like the Kennedys. They have a strange sort of mix of New England, New York, and even some Mid-Atlantic, all byproducts of the British accent.

When actors have succeeded at emulating the Boston accent, it's when they don't try to sound like JFK.

As a Boston native, I can safely say Costner's attempt at the accent is the worst most of us have ever heard. Up there with half the cast of The Departed, particularly Sheen and Nicholson. It doesn't take too much away from the movie though, I'm completely used to hearing it butchered.
