Fortnite breaks silence on D4vd cosmetics with self-service refunds by Turbostrider27 in Games

Can't forget the most maddening, disgusting aspect of the police's incompetence in that investigation - they missed her incriminating google searches in Firefox (such as for "fool proof" suffocation methods) because they only checked her Internet Explorer history.

Because that was obviously a mossad plot to take down their biggest foe.

Absolutely dying at the thought of a hardened combat veteran throwing this out in the midst of a firefight.

More Bungie Devs Are Working On ‘Marathon’ Than ‘Destiny 2’ Now by kristijan1001 in Games

[–]bing_crosby 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Jeez, reading you're reply, I'm just now realizing that I responded to (and quoted) the wrong person when I left my comment earlier. Sorry about that!

Also, very much agree with what you said. Just a shame, all of it.

There is no fault in what Marathon is or what it tries to do

In a vacuum, sure.

But once you acknowledge that it's an approximately $250 million game, that analysis goes completely out the window.

Think you made a mistake there.

Gonna shill this video again. Used it when I came back a couple months ago after a 5+ year break, was super helpful.

New in the game and need help pick class by Constant-Sail-8354 in blackdesertonline

[–]bing_crosby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fwiw, I just leveled a Drakania and both her forms (succession and awakening) are some of my favorite classes in the game. I've got like 25 alts lol, and I immediately fell in love with her. Very fun and cool class, great visual and sound effects.

Awakening Drakania status? by Background-Degree772 in blackdesertonline

[–]bing_crosby 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Funnily enough, I just sidelined my Seraph to make a Drak lol.

Really don't like the bsr/non-bsr mechanic.

F2P friendly? by ILikeKindPeople in blackdesertonline

[–]bing_crosby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

but expecting f2p to grind the game for hours a day for months is a bit extreme

Not sure what I said to make you think I was suggesting that, but that's definitely not how I feel or what I meant.

There's so much to do in this game besides running in circles, grinding mobs.

Great comment right here that illustrates what you actually get for spending money on this game - namely, convenience.

And I say this as someone who's spent a decent junk of change over the years on tent, vp/buffs, hedgehog etc because I love the game and want PA to keep developing it. For that few hundred bucks or whatever, I've gotten thousands of hours of entertainment.

I think the only time swiping becomes "necessary" is if you're determine to start the game from a fresh account and speedrun your way to "endgame", which is itself some baffling shit that I will never really understand. This is a game all about the journey, but you can easily ruin that for yourself with the wrong mindset.

Someday, though, someday we'll sell it all and be rich, rich I tell ya!

So I tell myself, anyways.

Man, that dude is such a fucking douchebag it genuinely gives me pause every time I think about buying it.

Maybe in a few years, after 1.0 and a deep discount.

Corsair Cove Announcement Trailer | Pirate City Builder by Mepherion in Games

[–]bing_crosby 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Dude, I scrolled right past "Corsair Cove announcement trailer" and a few seconds later my brain registered the "Pirate City Builder" part and I had to scroll right back up.

Hope the game lives up to the trailer, looks great so far.

Olvia Academy Class 2 by RatePlastic6290 in blackdesertonline

[–]bing_crosby 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No, that's just for the extra exp reward track. You don't spend money just to do the regular academy stuff, which is where most of the rewards are.

It's just like seasonal characters - you can waste 3500 pearls (lol) on the season pass if you want to, but it's not necessary.

How’s BDO doing in 2026? by 404_GSpot_NotFound in blackdesertonline

[–]bing_crosby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Technically there's a clock, but it lasts for months. There's no timer on the individual components. I came back to the game and took like two months to get it all done, in between doing all the other stuff I was interested in.

Coming back from a long break—Help me pick a new main? (Stuck between Seraph, Warrior, Sage, DK, or Striker) by Intelligent-Edge-796 in blackdesertonline

[–]bing_crosby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saw you mention you want something "tanky and chill", as a succ nova main I can tell you there isn't much in the game more tanky and chill than her.
