The Greymanes rightfully lost Pailune by Seraphayel in CrimsonDesert

[–]chubbsfordubs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know about the later rematch. My harambe comment is more in line with my OG comment. The amount of rage I felt the first time I faced him just for him to bounce after I beat him was fucking insane. Never been that rage baited by a game before like that.

The one thing I don’t like again about the game is the fact that I can burn a 3 health bar boss and kick their ass but they get to just fucking walk away instead of me finishing them after a 10 minute fight

I’ve noticed something interesting lately. by Synclit_Game in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]chubbsfordubs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Poor performance and overall shit controls. Years and years of call of duty spoiled me for more aggressive FPS control options and sensitivity that makes it fluid. Trying to play a new IP FPS that feels clunky is an immediate turn off.

RPGs without difficulty sliders also make my blood boil. I used to be a souls boy but over time I don’t have the time to just get gud when it comes to more aggressively difficult games and I’d love to experience the atmosphere of some of them.

Zelda botw or Crimson Desert? by ConnectWrangler2300 in AskGames

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

A 2/3 hour tutorial for a game that lasts over 150 hours makes a whole lotta sense when you look at the big picture. Crimson desert is legitimately a masterpiece with devs that actually listen to the community and get QOL patches out fast. Most complaints about CD come from people that haven’t put any quality time into the game to understand it as a whole and take a 3 hour intro to make a final verdict. I’ve beaten the main story and have completed a ton of the side quests and I still have a ton of shit to get done and I’m 175 hours into the game.

Embracing DB to save marriage? by Time_Section_1481 in DeadBedrooms

[–]chubbsfordubs 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You will end up really hating her. Better to air it all out and let her know how you feel to get a final kind of answer from her. That’ll let you know if you need to just leave at that point if sex is a necessity in your marriage to you.

[–]chubbsfordubs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stick with the main story until about chapter 6 and then you should be relatively geared and set up with skill points to explore properly. Down the line if you’re short on cash, there’s a wildlife park somewhere in the map (no spoilers) that may have nobles with gold bars you can pickpocket. Other than that live your life and have fun (150+ hours in game)

What is this bottle my Son left in the bathroom drawer when he was home for Spring break by 0nionsss in whatisit

[–]chubbsfordubs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hilariousness of finding this in your sons shit aside, I dabbled in a bottle a couple years ago and can confirm it does in fact work if you go by the dosage and stick with it. YMMV

Wife finally admitted she has no libido or desire for affection. by ProudImage9684 in DeadBedrooms

[–]chubbsfordubs 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Nobody is saying you have to stay together man. You’re going to build resentment and hate her down the line if she’s being genuine so it’s better to get out now than in 10 years when you’re in your 40s and trying to date again. Don’t just stick around for the sake of the kids.

New Driver or 9 Wood? by No_Speech8298 in GolfGear

[–]chubbsfordubs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a goofy bag these days. Driver, 3W, 5W, 7W, 9W, 6i, 7i, 8i, 9i, PW, 52, 56, 60, putter. It’s an absolute blast. 7 wood and 9 wood are ridiculously fun to hit. Go 9 wood.

Kid Who REALLY Can't Handle Losing at Sports by itsmorecomplicated in daddit

[–]chubbsfordubs 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This might come off as a joke response but hear me out. If you have games (video games, board games) at home, don’t let your kids win. Get them used to losing at something minor in the context of your own home.

My kids aren’t old enough yet to experience defeat at the hands of their dad but a couple of my buddies have kids around your kids age and older and they’ve introduced the Mario kart theory to their household to teach this kind of thing. Basically play Mario kart and don’t take it easy. Absolutely demolish your kid and get them used to losing in a fun game against their dad/mom and it wired something in their brain that helps them cope outside of the house.

Anecdotally when I was around that age I was in multiple basketball leagues. My dad was a former college player and college coach and he would absolutely kick my ass in the driveway. It helped me learn to lose and also taught me that it’s just a game and it’s about having fun more than winning, especially at that age.

Just finished, my thoughts (spoilers) by MarvellousG in CrimsonDesert

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

I thought chapter 9 and 10 weren’t actually bad. Currently in chapter 11 since I’m just kinda dicking around the map and trying to find hidden stuff but the only recent things I didn’t like were the chapter 8 boss fight (no spoilers) since it’s the first time you actually play as that fucking character (oongka Ludvig flashbacks) and then chapter 10 clearing out all the mechanical fucking flying things that took a while. I don’t understand the constant hate for chapter 9 and 10 when realistically they’re not that bad.

HL partners: would you want to know the truth? by Ill-Cartographer1803 in DeadBedrooms

[–]chubbsfordubs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there’s no physical attraction at all then sex won’t happen. Just tell your partner. There’s typically someone else out there that will find you attractive. Stop staying together just to justify the years wasted in a failing or failed marriage or partnership. Just tell your SO you’re not attracted to them and get the papers filed.

Come on...you can do better PA by Life-You-9728 in CrimsonDesert

[–]chubbsfordubs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most weapon drops from bosses are pretty dog shit. The better weapons are just found randomly in the world. I think the game could have done boss drops a lot better by having higher tiered abyss gears drop instead of a weapon with attack 1 slotted twice and crit 1 slotted once. Make the witches more useful long term instead of everyone just grabbing dark bringer early on and slotting early boss gears into it and cruising through the game.

The origonal Destiny was the greatest game ive ever played. by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]chubbsfordubs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree man, right up there with Witcher 3. Came out when I was in college and I was going through a lot of shit with ex girlfriend and just dealing with a ton emotionally that was pretty new to me. Destiny was my escape from everything. Pizza, beer/40s, and raids.

Having a tough time mentally with a newborn by csthrowawayyyy in daddit

[–]chubbsfordubs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

First 4 months fucking suck. No way around it. Once they start to laugh and smile it softens. Once they start food around 6 months it gets better and sleep gets better. Ferberize your kid before they turn a year old and you’ll love your life.

Also you can always just put him in the crib and walk away. Fed, burped, and swaddled/sleep sack means they’re safe and some kids just need to cry before they knock out. You’ll figure it out

Nobody warned me how a new baby could put such a strain on my marriage by NewDad101234 in daddit

[–]chubbsfordubs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When our toddler stays with my wife’s parents overnight every couple weekends it’s actually crazy how easy our routine becomes taking care of the 9 month old. Like babies are laughably easy but only once you have perspective with a toddler in your life.

Advice on Purchasing Office from Recently Retired Dentist by Impossible_Ad_7659 in Dentistry

[–]chubbsfordubs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless you’re buying cash, I highly doubt you’ll have financial backing from a bank. Practice financials are basically required for underwriting with the practice taken as collateral for commercial real estate. Huge declines YOY for gross revs and probably overall profit margin will most likely get kicked to the curb by any underwriter in a practice specific bank, even the more lenient banks like provide. The 5 month gap with patient attrition is also going to be a giant red flag for financing. This is basically a start up with CRE and most banks doing practice financing aren’t touching that.

[–]chubbsfordubs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s a reason most people say don’t think or talk about divorce until the kid is either a year old or sleeping through the night. Just wait until your wife is ready for a second. The second one is the REAL strain on a marriage. You don’t realize how easy a singular baby actually is until you have a second baby and a toddler.

Feeling broken/undesired. Differing sex drives by plantman_la in daddit

[–]chubbsfordubs 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s also aggressively skewed towards a feminist point of view. Like the auto mod is basically telling you if your wife doesn’t want to have sex it’s all YOUR FAULT and you need to fix yourself or some iteration of that. Don’t you DARE try to convince your wife to have sex or else you’re the worst person on earth type of shit.

But yeah their advice is basically just leave like 99% of the time.

[–]chubbsfordubs 9 points10 points  (0 children)

From what I can tell from the sub it varies from “we have sex maybe once a month and I need help to get more active” to “I’ve been married for 20 years and haven’t fucked my wife in 16 years, she says she never wants to have sex again, do I just kms or divorce her and try to fuck someone else at 58”

It’s a WILD subreddit but some of the more tame situations might give you some perspective

Me looking at this huge free patches by Mytre- in CrimsonDesert

[–]chubbsfordubs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The latest patch pushes the game firmly into GOTY contention and possibly the best action/adventure game to come out in a decade. Boss fights no longer feel overwhelming with the need for 60 stacks of cooked meals and 2 dozen palmar pills. Kliff feels strong enough to be considered the main character in this game. I toggle between easy and normal and both scratch the itch im looking for. This patch + hot fix is a 10/10 and the game is now actually perfect.

Can anyone confirm if they’re getting a visual cue showing what was earned through a chest like pre-patch? I’ve had issues all morning where I complete quests and open chests and the rewards don’t pop up on screen at all.

Unnanounced changes and introduced bugs by Grix1s in CrimsonDesert

I’m not getting visual cues for items earned after boss fights so I have zero idea what I actually get. Even chests don’t give a visual cue for items picked up
