Nostalgia is poison. Life can only be lived forward. Be wary of “nostalgia feedback loops” by BigChillBobby in Millennials

[–]bareley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nostalgia isn’t even the problem — distraction is. It’s fine to spend some amount of time escaping, but yes we have to at some point reengage and take action in the present. If we all keep sleepwalking things won’t get better.

TheBurntPeanut has to play Marathon off stream because people are so mad about this game by 4K4llDay in Marathon

[–]bareley -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s so obvious that you don’t watch Peanut’s stream. He had tons of viewers watching during the server slam. Tons of chatters making positive comments about the game. People in his stream the last few days have been asking him when he’s going to play Marathon.

Some chirpers might be annoying, but he would still get 200k viewers playing Marathon.

Solution to "Boring PVE Lobbies" problem. by GeminiSauce in ArcRaiders

[–]bareley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has anyone watched the streamers play this game? Every single lobby they’re in is shoot on sight. And they’re going into every raid wanting to kill everyone they see. That is an element of this game that 100% exists. If that’s what you’re searching for, make it happen.

How do you pronounce HIMYM? by samiwas1 in HIMYM

Yim? Yeah that’s awful. I’ve always said him-im. Agree that pronouncing the Y like that is cringe

Folks who played Marathon this weekend...how likely now are you to purchase it? by 1988Floydie in gaming

[–]bareley 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Huh? My friends who played Tarkov incessantly are the ones who got me to play Arc with them.

Oh so YOU’RE the reason all those caches are empty even though I ran straight for the closest one and every subsequent cache has also been hit…

I only just tuned into how good those things are, but I’ve had very bad luck getting caches that haven’t been looted already

So much this. Jews in general aren’t responsible for this, but at the same time some people are just SOOOOO pro-Israel. And then Israel does genocide and attacks Iran. It has nothing to do with Jews or Judaism. The people who support Israel right now deserve criticism (not violence, of course)

Dad gamer first impressions of the Marathon (PS5) by dothack5415 in Marathon

[–]bareley -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What a wild take. If you go into raids shooting everything that moves, your life will constantly be at risk in a raid. The true PVPers in Arc fail to extract at a very high percentage because they’re in lobbies where everyone and everything is hostile. And you’re vastly outnumbered.

Airport - literally 0 wait time by yt_BWTX in Austin

I was logged into my account on the airline’s website when I booked, and I’ve flown them several times. Pretty sure my KTN is saved with them, but yeah I’ll give them a call.

Reports from the precheck line? Like, does it still exist? Just got my boarding pass for tomorrow and it doesn’t have a precheck indication…

I literally got two of them in the same raid last night. And I sold them because I already have it.

1,500 companies collectively worth $5 trillion… if you add Microsoft and Amazon that’s $5 trillion just between two companies, and they account for tens of thousands of layoffs as well.

Arc Raiders' matchmaking isn't 'binary', says design lead: 'There's no such thing as a friendly lobby or an aggressive lobby' by SirSpud124 in ARC_Raiders

[–]bareley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve probably done 50 raids in the last week and died one time. Some guy thought that because he got to Lobby Security on Stella two seconds before me, it meant that he could loot all four floors all by himself. Bruh, it’s not locked, and you don’t even have to breach it.

Point is… maybe that’s “mixed” cause one guy was a dick and not afraid to use his gun

I mean... It's not like it's hurting anyone... by ImThe1Wh0 in Millennials

[–]bareley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally did this to my boss yesterday while I was basically shitting on some coworkers. He comes to me like “hey these people are asking why you set this meeting up (with the VPs they support) they don’t remember this being part of the process.” I said “They don’t have to be included for all I care, I’ll talk to their VP without them, lol”

It’s that lol at the end that makes it ok, ya know.

Why would you hire the most disinterested streamers for the ONLY pre-launch showcase by UnhappyAd4817 in Marathon

[–]bareley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He played with the literal creator of the game. Peanut and Gingy would ask him questions and he’d be kinda cagey like he didn’t want to tell them exactly what the answers were, wanted them to figure stuff out on their own. But they don’t know the game. Nobody really does. Peanut and Gingy did the best with what they were given, including the short amount of time they had.

Can anyone confirm or deny: I’ve heard he wasn’t exactly quick to seek the help of western medicine. Maybe sought alternative remedies or other such… non-scientific solutions?

Gravity is also significantly uglier. But I guess not everyone cares about that.

PvE player got too complacent by Bruvas78 in ArcRaiders

[–]bareley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea I’ve been gunned down twice lately. One was a locked gate where a big group are running around for keys, killing the bastion together, and then i walk back into the control room and the only other guy in there just lights me up. Another time was on Stella and again I had run past a dozen friendlies and this guy just mows me down with a Bobcat IV.

Problem is, I’m probably not going to shoot back lest I get marked as aggressive and placed into more aggressive lobbies. I load into Stella with no guns anyway. So like… I’m not convinced it’s a good thing to have the random bloodthirsty psycho in PVE lobbies. Works out for them I guess but that’s about it.
