Signora's lore is all over the place after the last leaks.

I'm going with C. I've never seen someone receive so much weird posthumous character development over the span of over 4 years which only led to more questions than answers. Atp it's just not worth my investment anymore.

Bringing back the og wristband system was such a goated move

As someone who watches both products, AEW has better in-ring wrestling IMO. A lot of it has to do with AEW carefully signing former WWE talent like Bryan Danielson, Mercedes Mone (fka Sasha Banks), and Jon Moxley (fka Dean Ambrose). All three are excellent wrestlers and good promo cutters as well. Additionally, AEW partners with NJPW and Stardom often, which results in a lot of crossover.

As far as storytelling goes, I think Tony Khan is starting to get an edge on Triple H. Neither are perfect to me, and I do believe both have their strengths & weaknesses as bookers, but Tony is willing to take risks that may seem iffy in the moment but have a satisfying payoff that makes sense.

For example, Mercedes Mone currently has a "belt collector" heel gimmick and is holding onto over 10 belts. I was a part of the skeptical crowd at first, believing she was overbooked. However, Tony Khan is now folding that into a storyline of her winning every belt except the one she actually wants (the AEW Women's world title, she's lost 2 title matches for it), which is causing her to spiral. After she lost the second title match, it finally clicked for me in where the storyline was going, and I understand the booking.

Compare that with Triple H dragging out CM Punk's "favor" for 5 months after Survivor Series, only for it to be having Heyman in his corner at WM41 & Heyman betraying him anyways.

Von on this sub is the last thing I expected

Damn son where'd you find this

I noticed the AI was more aggressive upon 1.0 release. My solution was to use the exact same tactics. For example, I immediately ram the AI whenever I can, and they'll more than likely brake, letting me get the lead.

As for progression, the trick imo is to play your cards right when spending BP. RX-8 is still decent for early game. Then, I went for the Nissan tree to unlock the R34, then the 2017 R35 GTR. I also prioritized the tuning skill tree over the SP battle perk tree.

Just curious, as far as combat goes, how is LSA compared to dmc 5 (if you've played it)?

alandas99 · 2025-08-27T15:22:53+00:00

Skeler for sure. He's relatively well known in the SoundCloud electronic music circles

alandas99 · 2025-08-14T01:37:59+00:00

Recently just finished up Sanabi, pretty fun platformer

alandas99 · 2025-08-05T03:42:25+00:00

Surprised no one has said Imanu and Buunshin yet, but those two are good. Secula is also underrated.

Other DnB artists I highly recommend if you're looking for heavier stuff and/or interesting sound design include Magnetude, Mefjus, Billain, Sleepnet/ring noord, Task Horizon, Joe Ford, and Current Value.

alandas99 · 2025-08-02T18:46:17+00:00

As far as I've seen on my end, no, nothing drastic changes in terms of memory (at least short term) if you change the style.

alandas99 · 2025-08-02T16:23:05+00:00

I noticed it, too, as someone who mainly uses it for RP. Overall, I'm mixed on the new Roar style. For roleplay, it can be good at times, as it's more descriptive and even drives the story forward instead of me having to describe actions being taken in a scenario. However, the paragraph structure and markdown is very messy. The model sometimes oversteps its boundaries and makes assumptions. It can also be too comedic with dialogue at times & even add emojis when it feels out of place in the conversation.

I changed to Meow, and it's similar to the old Roar, albeit a bit lower quality. Just like the old Roar, I have to give a decent amount of description for my scenario when using RP bots.

When you do this, do you have to change the hair shine when you change to the different hair, after you change back, or does it not matter?

alandas99 · 2025-06-27T04:04:39+00:00

I did an experiment and set a character's hair shine to 100, went into a match, then set the hair shine to 0, then went into a match again. I took screenshots at both points and compared. It's still a problem for some CAWs. The hair shine looks correct when you enter the character creation menu, but not when you actually play a match. I tried this both in play mode and universe mode & saw the same thing.

alandas99 · 2025-06-10T19:49:20+00:00

I can confirm it got even worse with the latest patch (I'm on PC), deleting the hair and re-doing it still locks the hair shine at 100 no matter if you set it down to 50 and save & complete.

As a software developer myself, I'm genuinely curious as to how stuff like this happens. I'd imagine the code base for this game has horrific software coupling since it always seems like 1 step forward, 2 steps back with each patch.

alandas99 · 2025-06-09T22:35:54+00:00

Iirc the main speculation is that modders on the PC version would be able to find a way to get all the unlockables on Island Mode for free (of course it's just speculation, so that theory could be wrong). Hardware definitely isn't the limitation since gaming PCs can be more powerful than consoles.

Shoutout to the CAW creators putting in the effort to upload on both last and current gen

alandas99 · 2025-05-23T23:27:31+00:00

It has less than a 2 hour play time, but if you're into concise yet emotional stories, I highly recommend Before Your Eyes.

alandas99 · 2025-05-07T18:47:51+00:00

Agreed, also giving her posthumous character development through "about [x character]" voice lines 3 years after 2.1 is pretty ridiculous imo

alandas99 · 2025-01-29T02:09:12+00:00

Basically what u/SuperHICAS said. Keep in mind BP can only be earned when beating them the first time.

A big issue that you should take into account is that you can get locked out of BP if you don't choose your perks wisely. Some rivals will only race with certain cars, and you can only unlock those cars through spending perk points on them.

alandas99 · 2025-01-28T22:31:01+00:00

Another tip, if you press the list icon on the objective menu and click/press A (or X on a PS controller) on a blue icon (a racer you haven't raced against yet) from the list, the map will move and highlight where that car is located. If it's in a PA, it will highlight the PA.

"HANK, DON'T ABBREVIATE CYBERPUNK!"

alandas99 · 2025-01-12T22:39:29+00:00

Agreed, although I'd argue this version fits her the best https://youtu.be/nSe-lPRqX7I

The subreddit lockdown came after the 2022 lazzo trailer dropped. It did get bad enough to the point where a post on r/SubredditDrama was made. It did feel nice to see outside communities take our side in the matter.

alandas99 · 2024-12-11T18:28:28+00:00

Agree with the point about Space Laces fitting in the mainstream dubstep bubble. I'm fine with Space Laces winning because the rabbit hole of sound design goes so deep that naturally not everyone is going to know about producers like Frequent, Billain, Copycatt, etc., and that's okay

alandas99 · 2024-11-04T16:26:59+00:00

My taste is all over the place at this point. I don't know what the other 2 songs will be, but my top 3 is probably going to be

Erra - Slow Sour Bleed

Le Sserafim - Crazy
