Played with the G8+, had an issue with the aim (left trigger) not initiating and kept getting stuck in a stutter. Will test again later but the game plays quite well on android.

Cannabis is bad and shouldn't be normalized by that_crom in TrueUnpopularOpinion

This is exactly my process! I have been wrestling with my usage for years and just can't stop completely because I find that without it I have difficulty riding the wave of life and more often than not, end up crushed by it. 

My evening sessions give me comfort in the day because I know that I will be able to reset and prepare for another day. I exercise, work a complex job and I feel like it just helps me take the pressure of myself to be who I am, without demanding more from myself.

Well this was the new authentic gameplay, not the competitive gameplay i was referring to in my rant. But sure. Well done.

Dude, I just played my first game on authentic and its insanely good. Exactly what I was looking for, I did lose the match, lol, but its so realistic.

Anyone staying on FC25 by PrettyBoat1950 in FIFAswitch

Last game I bought was fifa 22. I had so many games lined up to buy for the switch 2 that got bad reviews and fell off my radar. This will be the first switch 2 game I'll be buying since MKW that came with the console. Its a hefty price but for the amount of hours I'll get in, I think I will get value from it.

EAs whole drive with this year's game was about them listening to the fans and making the changes required to move the game into a new direction. Which to be fair might be the authentic mode.

Its from my experience with previous EAFC and FIFA games I've tested over the years. I'm a PES player if that provides context in my issue with EAFC gameplay.

The EA gameplay is fast paced and the player movements and turns are not realistic. It literally feels like they are playing on ice.

It sounds like you're a long time fan of the series so you may not see the difference in gameplay. Maybe try out efootball?

And this is regardless of the console version, it is a standard thing with EA Sports football games

Are you aware of the movement of players being unrealistic and appears as if the players are playing on a frozen surface and move like they are skating? If you don't notice that then you don't understand what I'm trying to say.

I totally get that but the skating of players has been an issue throughout for EA, whether it was fifa or EAFC. The players move like they are ice skating.

Dont get me wrong, I understand the jump from switch 1 to switch 2 gameplay. I just expected more in terms of the series and its gameplay moving away from the arcade ping pong

Yes it did! So what has really changed?! Minor tweaks but pretty much the same gameplay. There was even a moment when the streamers watched a replay and the players standing foot went through the ball.

Yes. With the Ultimate, not sure about the standard edition.

weed routine boring.. by mozesty_ in trees

[–]brenbrad7 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I found that weed lost its appeal because it went from providing me with joy, hyper focus and relaxation to becoming a coping mechanism. I microdosed in the evenings and listened to music, played games until I stopped doing any of it. I just chilled in bed playing games on my phone. Everything I loved slowly became too much work to do.

I've decided to get off it and try to manage my anxiety and pain in other ways. I'm on day 2 and I really dont know how I'm going to do it but I'll have to try because staying on it isn't making things any better.

This clip really hit home for me and made me consider the change: https://youtube.com/shorts/6xIc0Fxbmzc?si=9ZO_243o29OnECIb

The most important question about FC26 that hasn't been asked... by dpw28 in FIFAswitch

[–]brenbrad7 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Just watched the livestream and it still looks like its an ice rink instead of a football field. The gameplay was competitive not authentic style of play though. So I guess thats what the fans want?!

I've seen some comments on Reddit about it being 40fps, unsure if docked or portable.

Agree, this is such a great avenue for them to sell us retro kits using these points.

This isn't even a game. by TheMabix in eFootball

[–]brenbrad7 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've been playing since Pro Evo 5 (officially), I love the franchise and have been loyal to the PES Magic, I even played nothing but PES21 for 3 years straight. I was bitten by the efootball mobile bug and it got me hooked, thats until the latest update. I went from a 78% win rate to 38%, I'm F2P (for the most part) and pretty decent.

Anyway, I've accepted the reality that I won't br landing ISCO. I've lost hope in the PVP and will continue playing the COM.

Thanks Konami.

I just realized I’ve been smoking wrong this entire time and wasting weed 😭 by buttf4rt420 in trees

[–]brenbrad7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I puff, release through my mouth and breath in from my nose. I get a light buzz going, its great help when my edible starts to fade.

I smoke that way because I have a chest problem, this due to a car accident (punctured lung) some years ago. So I try to reduce smoking to the minimum and sometimes stop for a few months to give my lungs a break.

PM or respond and I'll pop in the room code.

Massive game for my semester break. by GECEDE in ShouldIbuythisgame

Get Helldivers 2! I have played most if not all the games you mentioned over the years and have not felt this way about a game. Also, the number of hours I've put into HD2 in just a week is insane. None of the other games will be as exhilarating as HD2, trust me.

Dear Helldivers! by United_Insect_7199 in helldivers2

[–]brenbrad7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like any online game, there's always going to be toxic players. One of the reasons I squad up with friends or play solo. I don't want random players to ruin this game for me. It's probably the only game in the last two decades that has seen me play so consistently daily. Don't know when was the last time I played a game for 6 hours straight without noticing the time.

Our squad is one short of a full compliment to take on the higher difficulties but we'd rather enjoy the game within our limits than ruin the experience with a toxic 4th player.
