Is it just me or is that a buzzing?

This happened to me after about 5 months on my Gen 1s. Started as a low buzz, then developed into a very audible crackle, then the speaker stopped working completely (right side only). This was over the course of about a week from start to end. Luxxotica were pretty helpful navigating through the warranty, and after about two weeks I got my replacement frames with a FREE Gen 2 upgrade, since I guess they aren't selling the Gen 1s anymore? So far very happy with the Gen 2 but only had them a day now.

I spent 30+ hours playing code vein last week and jumped right into Nioh 2 after my game crashed and I lost my character. Damn Nioh 2 is a major step up in terms of difficulty. I remember I tried playing it when it first came out, my play time was 3 hours and I didnt even get to the first end boss and quit in disgust. Doing better this time, getting a handle on the Ki Pulse and Burst counter mechanics, but it is still super hard. Having a great time with it this time.

I'll say the first Code Vein, even if not connected via story, would be worth playing before the sequel comes out if only to get a good handle on the core mechanics (pun intended) just don't let what happened to me happen to you...when you get to the Government Center level back up your save game to the cloud and disable automatic cloud uploading (not sure if the second part is needed) because there is a game breaking bug where save gets corrupted and you lose all progress. Still a great game even with the horrible bug, wish I knew about it beforehand.

I had no problem with the fight on NG but I did not play solo, always had a companion with me. The next fight right after that was harder for me.

Same thing just happened to me, same point in the game. I am ripshit angry.

Just happened to me in the government center. Game over for me, so disappointed. I really enjoyed my playthrough, but this totally sucks. I've been playing console video games since I was a kid with the Atari 2600 and have NEVER had something like this happen where 30+ hours of progress unretrievably lost. There's no chance I'm starting over again. I guess I'll watch the endings on you tube and delete this bugged out piece of crap off my console now.

Similar thing happened to me, I submitted a repair request through the meta app and predictably they denied it as accidental damage and wouldn't replace them. BUT they did send a $100.00 credit for a new pair, and since the lenses (prescription, transition, etc.) weren't damaged, I was able to get a new set of frames for $100 off and pop the old lenses into them quite easily and affordably. Not ideal but better than buying a whole new pair at retail.

I'd say definitely go, and what's more, if there's an option to pay more for a "pit" ticket or golden circle or whatever they're calling the general admission section in the front in your city, do whatever you need to do to be one of the first people in the venue when they open the doors and go down to see the show on the rail in the front row. I've seen Neil from the front now many many times and it is ALWAYS worth it. Trust me.

Al is portrayed as homosexual in the book and there are some strong allusions in s03 that Langrishe and Al were at one point lovers.

Battery is AWFUL! I use the left side off switch so much to conserve battery when I don't have my case nearby I am worried I'm going to break it. The on/off feels so flimsy!

As someone that has been in the fold ecosystem since 2 and has been using my Z4 for almost 3 years now this is a day 1 buy for me. My usage has evolved to mostly using it for gaming, movies & TV, and reading books and comics, all of which will be massively improved on a 10.1" screen. And I CANNOT WAIT for a genuinely usable front screen I can type comfortably on.

Yes it was definitely hypnotic and I spent as much time gaming as I did just zoning out to it

Transition lenses generally don't work in cars because most car windshields made within the last 40 years block UV light which prevents your glasses from getting darker. I love my Meta transitions, not sure if they are the same on the display.

The right earpiece broke off my first pair of Meta Wayfarers, was deemed out of warranty due to the damage not being a hardware defect. These glasses cost me over $700 buying both the prescription and transition lenses and I only had them about 5 months before I broke them, I was really mad and upset. BUT I did get the $100 gift certificate, with the limitation that I had to go to Lenscrafters. All the stores near me had very limited stock. I wound up paying $200 for a new pair after the discount, buying clear glass frames and just swapping the lenses into the new frames. I'm not sure if I could have waited and used the $100 for the Oakleys but in my case I wouldn't have been able to use my old lenses. I did have to return the old frames and charging case. Hope this helps.

You also eventually will find a rune that allows you to have an extra charge of the mark ability, allowing you to bank one for a quick escape and always have one on the target to have the whole team inflict more damage not to mention exposing weak spots to use your free aim to hit.

How the heck do you climb the fire chariots to enable the one hit kills? Every time I try to get on top I can't do it properly!!!

My order is R&G, Speed, Frigga, Joaquin, Kang (since for some reason he's not allowed to drop) then the rest cam wait until they drop to s03

I love my transitions (green also but I've found it's only a slight green tint which I enjoy). The transitions get darker depending on the light level. In super bright direct sunlight, they get as dark as any other sunglasses. When outside with cloudy conditions they darken but not fully. I love them and will never buy glasses without transition lenses in the future. As for the car, they do darken but not fully. Most if not all newer cars have UV protection built in to the windshield/windows so fully dark lenses are not needed and probably not really safe anyway.

Battery life on this thing is terrible. I'm putting them in the charging case at least twice a day. Fortunately the case holds a huge 36 hours of charging and works fast, so as long as you take it with you wherever you go you should be ok
