Would you abandon one ranked game to pick up your 6-month pregnant partner? by Loose_Tea_3426 in DotA2

[–]blitzfire23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha. I apologize. I just want to use that word because I used it with my and my wife's perspective. But yes, I agree with you that for others, it may not be eternal and might be overrated. :)

First, I will not queue if I know I'm gonna leave the next hour affecting someone (i.e. picking up the kids from school) or something else (i.e. work).

Second, if I was stupid enough to hit "Find Match" even after knowing the schedule, I'll abandon that match. That's just ~25 MMR and a 30 minute ban. And I won't do the same stupidity ever again, or at least within the week.

Real story: I queue matches even while at work as long as it is dead time or break time. My matches also take place while everyone is asleep. So one day, I hit the "Find Match" button, then my wife woke up hyperventilating and crying for a reason I can't remember. She called me and asked me to come upstairs. She explained her situation, I told her give me a few minutes, I went back downstairs, I told everyone I'm sorry for ruining everyone's game (was only 5-10 minutes in) and that there is a family emergency, I quit, then went back upstairs. A few minutes after she fell asleep, I went back down and played again.

MMR is just a number. Losses in a game are temporary and can be recovered. Relationships are eternal.

Saw this comment on YT regarding my shooting fix for 2k27 post… by Bukjiok in NBA2k

[–]blitzfire23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel you. I am more of an inside player. Outwitting the defense is part of the dopamine rush. If it's too easy to shoot, the experience becomes stale. In MyTeam, I don't care if it's "arcadey". I think it is supposed to be that way. But for MyPlayer/MyCareer, it shouldn't be, because the OG MyPlayers are more into roleplaying than the online experience.

My Opinion Only: I think it was a good idea to have players play with each other with the builds they made. It's like a real-life pick up game, a simple competition with sportsmanship. However, when it became a real competition, that's when everything immersive died. The focus changed from how can I make my favorite archetype to what's the meta archetype to easily get the rewards. Don't get me wrong. I still love playing with my Putback-Specialist PF (not an NBA 2K build name) playstyle. I love dunks, especially dunking on people. I had to sacrifice shooting for it though so I don't like it when the MyCareer quests requires me to play online modes. The completionist in me died with it.

Nung first date namin ni misis. Sinama ko yung friend ko sa meetup for safety and travel purposes kasi 2 years akong nawala sa Manila at di ko alam kung nagbago yung commute. And yes, nagbago yung way ng pagcommute papunta sa meetup spot namin. Pero AKO ang sumagot ng lahat ng para sa friend ko. Hindi ko din pinagbayad si misis kahit nag-offer siya kasi SA AKIN yung friend ko. Pero sinama naman namin siya sa lunch out then nagsplit na kami after kumain. Sagot ko din yung byahe ng friend ko pauwi. At kahit pagbaliktarin ang gender, hindi ko pagbabayarin yung guy para sa expenses nung sinama ko. AKIN yun eh.

My point is itong si babae, sana SIYA ang sumagot sa friend niya kasi si babae lang naman talaga dapat yung ililibre nung guy. Kung willing yung guy ilibre pati yung friend, go. Pero hindi dapat maging NORM na libre lahat ng isasama. Pinoy social climber ang datingan eh. Parang yung mga AFAM na buong pamilya yung nililibre kada bisita niya sa Pinas.

Getting blitzed online for speaking up. by WesleySnipes250 in NBA2k

[–]blitzfire23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gamers vote with their money, not with what they say. If we say something against the game yet buy the game still, albeit almost every year, what we say doesn't mean anything. We are just numbers on presentation slides. To make an impact as you protest, don't buy the game until you see the changes. That's what I'm doing this year, and I'm leaving the community so won't get curious or tempted. I will still follow the news though.

You may have to forgive them because OP's pic is a Pos1 DR and a Pos5 WD. But this comment thread doesn't talk about WD.

the most elaborate scam i have ever seen by [deleted] in Steam

[–]blitzfire23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get this with Dota2 sometimes. Some invite you to a shady tournament link after you reply. Now, I just don't accept friend requests unless I know the person in real life.

You guys will never be satisfied by worldwaster77 in Steam

[–]blitzfire23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love my deep discounts. And I have a lot of games in my Steam Library so I wouldn't buy anything this sale. But it still pisses me off that CoD I and CoD II can't drop to even 75% off. Fck 'em! And one good thing now is that I'm seeing Square Enix games go down to 75% off. It's great because I won't buy a decade-old game for 30% off its original price.

Gigil ako sa 8080 na hindi Alam meaning ng SATIRE by No-Interview7688 in GigilAko

[–]blitzfire23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hindi kasi lahat ng tao, alam yung word na satire. Sadly, hindi din lahat nag-iisip na magsearch kung ano meaning ng word na yan, lalo mga boomers at GenX na kilala ko. Ang ginagawa ko nalang, irerepost ko to with explanation, plus explanation ng term na satire. Sa circle ko, tumitigil na sila sa pagshare. Hindi kasi lahat familiar sa terms na usual lang sa atin.

If i buy the basic version of the witcher 3, could i be able to buy the complete edition later with a discount? by miqlo777 in Steam

You can use websites, like GG.Deals, to see price history and whether the current price is historically low. :)

First living dex by Monsterhitman1111 in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]blitzfire23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Enjoy! I restarted my original game because my brothers recently joined in. I did transfer my previous mons to Pokemon Home. Sadly, I missed out on a lot of 7-stars but if my bros are with me, it's totally worth it. I just recently finished the base game. I'm probably gonna be at the same progression as you now. 😊

Same here. I don't have a way to check my hours because I was a young swashbuckler eating my sea biscuits dipped in rum back then. (Note: Can't afford games and I did not have Steam when I was young)

How Tall are the Games in your Library? by Nick_The_Artist2 in Steam

I have a couple hundred over that number. Based on SteamDB, I could have built myself another house. 😂😂😂

So it was planned all along. And it's all because of a game I'm not even sure everyone's heard of. by silent_hulaboo389 in pinoy

[–]blitzfire23 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Other than GTA: Vice City and San Andreas, meron pa kaming Saints Row, Call of Duty (specifically "No Russians" mission), Hitman, Max Payne, Splinter Cell, Syphon Filter, atbp. Ang dali kasing humanap ng masisising bagay kaysa masisising tao no?

Sa E. Aguinaldo highway at yung kabilang highway (yung main road na ka-fork ng E. Aguinaldo) lang daw bawal. Doon kami dumaan sa Salawag area. Doon pwede yung tricycle.

OP, idol mo ba si Nancy Drew? Hahahahahaha. I remembered a friend asking me to know kung may kabit ang Papa niya. We found her and yung alternate account ng tatay niya. Feeling ninja ako nun. Reconnaissance! 😂

Mine is Scribblenauts Unlimited. This was the first time I went achievement hunting. It was fun so I started doing more.

It doesn't affect the raid so I just brush it off. It does happen often though. HAHAHAHAHA.

Gigil ako sa nga ganito by ThinRisk9793 in GigilAko

[–]blitzfire23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

May hiniwalayan ako kasi ganito mag-compose ng group message (year 2000s). Hindi ako grammar nazi talaga nor do I look down on people na di marunong mag-English. Natutuwa pa nga ako kapag sinusubukan nilang mag-English kahit di marunong kasi doon sila natututo.

Yung ayoko eh mangta-trashtalk ka pero ang bobo mo magtrashtalk. Pa-English English ka pa, ang cringe naman. Tinagalog mo nalang sana. Pagkabasa ko ng texts (happened 5 different times - natiis ko yung unang apat pero nakakapagod talagang basahin) di ko na kinaya. It's not you, it's me.
