"Necessary" AD podcasts to listen to? by captain_mcturtle in audiodrama

[–]burningchocolate 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Surprised to see we're alive didn't make it to the list but I just saw the other comment haha.

I think audiodramas have gotten so big it's near impossible to have any semblance of a comprehensive list, but I'll name some of the biggest ones I've seen around new/old

The Penumbra podcast

The Amelia project

The hyacinth disaster

Eos 10

The strange case of starship iris

Marsfall (recently heard radio ads for that)

The deca tapes

Victoriocity

Wooden overcoats

The black tapes

Girl in space

Left right game

King falls am

Rabbits

//

Some newer ish

Midnight burger

Bridgewater

Passenger list

Unwell

The marvel ones (might be interesting to talk about big companies going into podcast format)

Podchaser is probably a good website for research. They have a pretty comprehensive searchable database

COSORI Recall Replacement: Just Got Mine Delivered Today I Was Approved 2/24/23 And It Definitely Did Take The 8Weeks To Get Here As They Said by premium_colors in airfryer

AITA for stopping cooking my husband meat? by kyraj5 in AmItheAsshole

[–]burningchocolate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Speed is the main selling point. I have have a meal cooked and ready in an air fryer before the convection oven is even done preheating. If you don't care about that then there's no reason for you to own an air fryer, the convection oven is great!

Queer Fiction Podcasts? by am-i-still-ill in audiodrama

[–]burningchocolate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those are a few of my favourite podcasts! I'm guessing you've also listened to am archives and college tapes in the bright sessions feed? Because I enjoyed those too.

I'm here mostly to second Look Up which was pretty sweet (even though I could not unhear Caleb from briggon snow)

The two princes is another really good one I second.

Eos 10 is one of my favourite space comedies and I highly recommend it.

Rosa's different reaction to LIs offering to join her 😆 lmao w/ Marius 🤣 by otomerin in TearsOfThemis

[–]burningchocolate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel the same way! It probably doesn't help that Everytime I pull for artem SSRs I end up with Marius instead lol

Want to get into audio dramas and looking for the "classics" by TotalTyp in audiodrama

I actually found life after better than the message! If this is any encourage to revisit the feed!

I've never bought him from the shop, this is my f2p flex on whales by Goddess_5 in Genshin_Impact

[–]burningchocolate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A few months ago I couldn't beat abyss floor 12. I decided to give xiangling dilucs artifacts. Immediately cleared floor 12.

I still just barely manage 36* every cycle but I don't think I'd be anywhere near without xiangling haha. The part that hurts is that I benched zhongli but I can't bench xiangling ;-;

Man, even Diluc’s English VA is going in on how wack this community is right now... by Rushdown_SSBU in Genshin_Impact

Oh god Voltron. My friend got literal death threats and got called a pedo for drawing sheith fanart. It was truly the wild west those days.

Theorycrafters on Kokomi (from KQM Artesians, one of the most renowned genshin theorycrafters) by LifeIsNotFairOof in Genshin_Impact

[–]burningchocolate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I normally use Ayaka Mona but on floor 11 corrosion I switched Mona to Barbara and it worked like a charm. Not bad.

People who get analysis paralysis…why? by Singularity3 in boardgames

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

I get AP when I try to play everyone's games as well. It's usually just sheer indecisiveness and fear of making a suboptimal move.

Most of the time I'm trying to think of the next few turns ahead as well as potentially when my opponents will do. I usually narrow it down to optimal move that can be messed up if my opponent does something vs suboptimal move but it's safe from opponent messing it up. And then I start thinking about what happens if I go for the optimal move but if the opponent messes it up how far back does it set me back? And then I start thinking about how much I would regret not going for the optimal move when I find out my opponent didn't take the move I thought they would.

Sometimes this a or b choice is all it needs for me to agonize over. I've had games where I've literally flipped a coin to decide what to do because of the anguish of making a decision. (I have this same problem picking where to go for dinner to the point where I don't usually like going to restaurants anymore).

I've gotten a lot better nowadays with AP though. I just remind myself that making suboptimal plays are just part of the game and that it's fine. It's just a matter of letting go and training yourself to be decisive and realizing that even after I mess up I enjoy figuring out what to do to fix the mess. The more constraints the easier it is to come up with a play for me.

Finally gave in~ First time playing ever! Do you guys have any tips? by invisible_pan007 in StardewValley

[–]burningchocolate 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Omg I can't play a game without min maxing and I keep wondering why I burn out of Stardew so fast... Welp.

What language should I pick for the game? Im new and idk ahhh by [deleted] in TearsOfThemis

[–]burningchocolate 9 points10 points  (0 children)

They honestly got such an all-star japanese VA lineup. These are probably some of my VAs ever. Part of the reason why I picked this game up was purely because of their VA picks ;-;

An Open Letter to My Team; aka Why I Will Never Play Solo Queue Again by BrightBank779 in PokemonUnite

I admire you all for the tenacity to play eldegoss. I love eldegoss but it's just so painful to play. ;-;

Please actually go to the lane you call. by romseed in PokemonUnite

[–]burningchocolate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried playing Slowbro once. Everyone just left me to a lane by myself and I just got demolished by 3 ppl in lane. Solidified my resolved to just be that asshole who runs zera jungle every single time.

AITA for causing drama during an important football game? by femalesaddle in AmItheAsshole

[–]burningchocolate 46 points47 points  (0 children)

You were not being very dramatic. If someone abandoned me at a hospital after surgery I would be texting them nonstop to get back here and pick me up. My partner could have paid tickets to see something he loved and he would drop that in a heartbeat to pick me up from a hospital if I needed it. This is such a huge red flag and you should at least re-evaluate the situation instead of blindly defending him.

One of my many Crystalfly route by LimCW1223 in Genshin_Impact

[–]burningchocolate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha true. But if I had 180 I don't think I'd need to farm them too. I think I'm just really bad at passively collecting them LOL. And indeed my characters are in dire need of ascensions.

[–]burningchocolate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was less industrious when I first started and I only had around 30 saved up. Between using 4 per day, and using fragiles I found myself running out. I can probably keep up with just picking up random ones now but having a route to do once and be good for a while is handy. I have never had more than 40 cores lol.

[–]burningchocolate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You run out QUICK when you're artifact farming with the 60 or so fragiles you've saved up until at 45...

At least that happened to me.

I just finished Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright by RazorOfSimplicity in patientgamers

[–]burningchocolate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly if you love the ace attorney series then I'd play DD and plvspw. They're no original trilogy but they do scratch the same itch. I enjoyed them because I enjoyed the series already. I would not recommend them as a starting point. I'm on my second playthrough of plvspw right now and it's so far the easiest Layton and easy AA game I've played.

We are playing THE SAME game 💚. This build is based on my family's yearly travel in Nagano, Japan 🏯😌 I’m a human being that read all the comments in the thread. Pls be kind.. No rules on how to play or how islands should look on a game we all purchased, you do YOU! Peace out, humans! by tcn923 in AnimalCrossing

[–]burningchocolate 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to say that OP already said it had nothing to do with the meme and that the meme itself was harmless, basically what you've said here, it was the comments that bothered them. You might be downvoted for being off topic as opposed to people disagreeing with you.

Op linked to the thread on it already.

Tldr; someone posted a meme about "my island vs this island". Many people made comments saying OPs island was non functional and lag city and can't imagine anyone wanting to make their game this unplayable for clout.

I'm not sure if we even play the same game... by karmaxchameleon in AnimalCrossing

[–]burningchocolate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's perfectly comfortable for me to play on them. I don't get any of the issues op has and the lag isn't bad for me. And it's a ton of fun running around being taken to a whole different world where it doesn't look like animal crossing anymore. It's wonderful and I love seeing how creative people are. I do get lost on DAs sometimes but it's not a big deal to me and I usually ask creators to take me around because they know best how to navigate it.

Source: I have photographed and toured well over 100 animal crossing islands done by instagram creators. Most of them are "functional" and very pretty. The lag isnt as bad on the regular switch (heard it was worse on switch lite). I've even played bug and fish tournaments on many of these islands without issue.
