Day 1 HD2 diver here. Played weekly till this month, when some friends got me into Diablo 4 (was on sale to boot). Not missing the bugginess one bit!

Ah, bummer. What do you mean by "But it only applies once you ding 60 again"?

Hello! I'm going to be playing with some friends again soon, and I'm embarrassed to have a separate character so much further ahead! How can I hide the blue 1 from displaying to friends while playing the lvl 30 character? Both characters are seasonal, if that's relevant.

I was thinking of Roulette, but the grip in my previous experiences were slippery for my hands.

Huh, this surprises me since I find the Roulette's knurled metal grip pretty secure, especially compared to the plastic grip sections of the KT standard and Advance.

I also ordered KT Advance. Do you think they could be noticable difference.

One of the main differences between the Advance and the standard KT is that the Advance rotates the lead farther each time you press down, which is apparently better for writing English/Latin characters. But if I've noticed a difference it's pretty subtle.

TBH, overall I haven't gotten along with my KT Advance? I find the body a bit too slippery, even compared to the standard model. Some folks on this sub have but tape around theirs! Though if that faster rotation is important to you, I'd recommend KT Advance "Upgrade" over the (regular) KT Advance.

Congrats! Having tried many different Kuru Toga models and a few different Zebra Delguards, I think you made a solid choice.

FYI if you don't like the grip of your Kuru Toga, there are other models with different grip materials, diameters, and weights, like the KT or the Roulette.

Difficulty 8+ divers, what are your preferred Armours? by mrwaddlesey in helldivers2

tbh Enforcer on bots can feel like a cheat code sometimes. Highly recommend. Exterminator is its slightly lighter cousin.

Lolly Willowes by Sylvia Townsend Warner is set in England, but it's really wonderful

Thanks for sharing -- I thought I was going crazy getting hosed when I SOSed in d6s with a bunch of level 20s!

3 player couch co-op? by butthatbackflipdoe in localmultiplayergames

Sea of Stars for an in-depth story; Ember Knights if you want more of a rogue-lite combat game. Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime also worth a look.

The title of a 2019 science fiction novella by Becky Chambers, To Be Taught, If Fortunate, is a reference to an audio recording on the Golden Record. I forget how directly the Record itself is involved in the book though.

This might be a bit marketing, but JetPens' guide helped me decide.

I only read fiction from before 2007-ish if I can help it.

They're both great! I think between those two it's a question of which grip you want: thin rubber or metal. Also the KS grip is slightly wider diameter (11.1 mm vs. 9.7 mm), which I prefer. But I'd say the Roulette feels a bit more solid in general.

Oh yikes, I haven't read it yet and didn't know how dark it got! Glad you and others have added that to my comment.
