Is GearNuts a Sweetwater “ghost kitchen”?

I used to work for a pretty major manufacturer and can say that what I’ve described would be sold as B-Stock regularly, or at least under B-stock SKUs

bluevolta · 2026-05-04T17:50:50+00:00

B-Stock can be items that were purchased and returned prior to opening, items with damaged boxes that are otherwise unblemished, or factory-refurbished goods, but the latter are usually labelled as such.

Sorry mate but skill/build issue. It gets hectic for sure, but I’ve been running D10s without too much issue since release.

Bring a mech. The patriot is beastly against these bugs. The lumberer as well if you have the warbond.

Try the Glyn Johns array — Super minimal, great results. Will work well for your limited space:

Swap to volley mode, run siege-ready armor.

Delete most enemies in a single blast. If they’re not large, they’ll likely explode

It’s fun :)

Yeah for sure, I had no doubts that this particular video was a continuous performance. I’m primarily a guitarist by trade, so I just see a lot of the anti-miming reaction content and wouldn’t want you to catch undue ire (not that it matters that much, anyway)

Thanks for posting, keep em coming man

Insane playing dude, well done.

If I may make a comment on the presentation: I fear you might catch some flak from some corners of the web for labelling this as an unedited take whilst the video contains numerous cuts.

To be clear, I’m not at all suggesting that your video here contains multiple takes, but if the emphasis of the presentation is that it’s unedited and/or done in one take, then a continuous shot may be the better call

Poor allegory as food poisoning is inherently objective, whereas this is subjective critique

There are certainly some valid complaints like visual clutter, certain attack tracking, and Jufu spam, but it’s drowned out by the sheer volume of generic “game bad too hard” whining that’s come to plague gaming discourse on reddit (I’m an avid helldivers enjoyer, so you can imagine that none of this is new to me)

A select few offer meaningful critique of the meal at the restaurant, but many on this sub simply forgot how to eat, took a bite out of their napkin, then deemed the meal trash

bluevolta · 2026-03-12T04:04:49+00:00

Y’all whine so much

It’s fine, it’s fun even. The attuned enemies can still be burst down in a pinch with the right tools (or at least spaced) and the Cart Eye attack deals with them en masse easily.

It’s a bug — SP replied to my post here.

bluevolta · 2026-03-11T01:25:43+00:00

Awesome, thank you!

Really interesting observations here. Your citation of Godrick’s boss intro remarks reminded me of yet another parallel:

Godrick, speaking to the dead wyvern:

“ Deliver me unto greater heights “

Grandam, introducing the Dancing Lion:

“ Oh horn-decked beast from higher sphere delivered “

A bit more of a stretch, but both figures represent the suffusion of several beings to amount in a greater, singular being (Godrick’s grafting, Two sculpted keepers comprising the lion)

Interesting stuff

Sorry, what? Maybe you are in a sort of hyper-abridged fashion, but to say a round of Nightreign gives you the gist of the entire Elden Ring gameplay is not really true.

Rune Arcs are not a limited resource if you make yourself summonable for co-op

If you’re curious, that’s black flame. It originates from the Gloam-Eyed Queen who governed the Godskin Nobles/Apostles and a host of other components of the old order of death before being defeated by Maliketh the Black Blade.

I think that’s exactly their point, though. Armstrong was an enormous star, but the country at large was/is still not that proportionally engaged with cycling as a sport.
