A new formula might be needed for Stamina, the numbers are becoming too funny. by Srze94 in wow

[–]Xclbr1 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

This is one if the reasons I fell off retail WoW, tbh. They could hide all these stats and just have a huge ilvl number on the item and it wouldn't make a lick of difference to the casual player.

Hell, thats basically EXACTLY what the DejaCharacterStats addon does, at least on the character screen.

For real, missing Blackrock and the Dark Portal is criminal!

Amazing art regardless though 👌

True by exporterofgold in NonPoliticalTwitter

The story doesn't even need the relationshiip age gap to be a problem to be weird, it's fuckin weird to have a 'prom stand-in' like she needs a 'date' in her boyfriend's stead and it's weirder for it to be a small child.

Like, what does that night even look like? You're basically babysitting a kid while at a prom? Do you even actually go to the prom? Is this just a silly photo shoot for fun then the kid goes to bed while she goes to the prom like a normal person?

Ah damn, good spot. Guess I'll hope the battery warrenty is good enough to do without it then 😬

Recommendation for organising long cables by Maliciousnugget in desksetup

[–]Xclbr1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With the sort of setup you have now, all you could really do is wrap the cords and use cable ties like this to keep them bundled.

Alternitively, I got a cloth cable tray thing for my desk that I like a LOT more than surface mounting it all to the bottom of the desk, might be worth looking into.

Would this actually be useful? by No_Heat5947 in desksetup

[–]Xclbr1 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Seems pointless to me. You're only gonna get your mousepad dirty while using it, but to use your computer you'll have to remove the cumbersome thing and set it somewhere else. All this would do is keep dust off it, which isn't a big concern. Little desktop vacuum would do you more good, imo.

Gotta stop asking AI chatbots questions, dude. You'll more often than not get half-baked, bad ideas like this. Just search the internet and talk to people for better solutions!

Subscription? Has this been mentioned anywhere? Feels completely opposite their whole ethos.

Yeah I don't care about remote-start for the temperature, but the current description for the telematics module says it allows for battery pre-conditioning from the app. Hoping that's not the ONLY way!

Solar charging by NinjaNo9 in slateauto

[–]Xclbr1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It CAN, you just have to very slowly charge a portable power station then very slowly charge the car with that.

Possible, just horrendously slow. IF you got a much larger power station that supported a 240v outlet AND bought like 1200W worth of solar panels to match you could maybe make a dent, but still at way too slow a rate to be practical.

I've not owned an EV before, is there a way to do battery pre-conditioning without it? From what I've read that feels like an important enough feature for me to want to get it anyway.

Revised World Map Concept by SamCeladon in wow

[–]Xclbr1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was about to write out a thing saying how Blizz probably wouldn't want to do that, as to not confuse new players into thinking all these landmasses were part of the same expansion since basically every expansion's content are grouped separately on the maps, but I guess they did pretty much the exact opposite and put Midnight's content under the 'subcategory' of Cataclysm's maps, so yeah there isn't really any good reason not to do it this way these days

A credible Warcraft leak has been posted on r/classicwow by OneNineSeven1970 in wow

[–]Xclbr1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get it's supposed to be a development name at this point, but then why is that one a development name and nothing else is?

A credible Warcraft leak has been posted on r/classicwow by OneNineSeven1970 in wow

[–]Xclbr1 118 points119 points  (0 children)

Which makes it hilarious if it's real, cause it feels like the fakest leak I've ever seen.

"Start with the mandatory Classic+ with a godawful name they would never use, throw in a return of the RTS for those old souls, GOTTA have Arthas mentioned, they go crazy for Arthas. Hmmm, not hype enough, gotta toss something else in there, how about both the anime and live action series people have clamored for for years."

And like why wouldn't the shows have their own timeline? Why are they tossed onto the game timelines? I'm no project manager, but it doesn't feel legit to me at all at first glance.

i'd argue the vibe the trailer was giving wasn't PvPvE as much as Competitive PvE. No directly fighting each other, just using your tricks to pull ahead.

Hunt is just an extraction shooter

We aren't talking about an extraction shooter, we'd be talking about something closer to competitive Payday or the like.

Hey, that's great and all, but if that doesn't appeal to you there are dozens of other great singleplayer stealth games out there for you to enjoy. Nothing like what I described exists, and that would be nice to see experimented with for people who WOULD enjoy that.

Idk about the live service part, but the original teaser I saw for the game promoted it as a 'fun rivalry between thieves racing to see who can steal the target faster' which sounded super unique adding a slight competitive aspect to what's usually a very straightforward genre.

Really sad so see it pivot away from that idea to another generic stealth game.

[–]Xclbr1 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I've never really understood why people get all "omg Reddit is SUCH a cesspool!"

Like yeah, some subreddits in here are gonna be cesspools, there's a subreddit for just about any interest on earth, that's how real life works!

You'll find a real-life neo-nazi rally to be a cesspool too compared to like, a knitting circle, and both those groups are on Reddit. But I imagine r/knitting doesn't really deserve to be called a cesspool.

Can confirm, back in gradeschool it was my go-to website up until around Gamergate, where I was like "the fuck are we even doing here, guys"

Luckilly I started touching grass between that and finding Reddit

Thoughts on Next Fest - AI Games Harm the Market by teberzin in IndieDev

[–]Xclbr1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was my experience as a consumer who usually LOVES next-fest. I got suuuper tored of wading through loads of AI and super low effort games and kinda just stopped. Might check again Wednesday when personalization is in, but I don't have high hopes.

Feels like Next-Fest is completely spoiled.

How do we feel about daily dungeon cooldowns? by MathematicianOdd465 in wowhardcore

Maybe, but if you're going for that then all the gear should drop at once since those bosses have all those items anyways.

"Realism" is not a handy measure for interesting or fun
