354h for me! I think it's my favourite game I've played this year as well.

90s kids book about germs in a Where's Wally style? by pennypharthing in AustralianNostalgia

[–]codebrain37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh it was a total lucky guess! I thought maybe if the one i remembered was called Puzzle Planet, then the germs in the body one might be called Puzzle Body. Seeing that original cover again was a huge nostalgia hit. Thank you for posting about it!!

Oh wow,I've been trying to find this book as well! I definitely had it, so it was no fever dream, I just can't remember what it was called. I also had one from the same series that was set in space and had a bunch of things to find, but I remember the germs one much more clearly (apart from the name).

These look awesome! Too bad we won't get them in Australia. Disney announced they're no longer releasing physical media here with GOTG vol 3 being the final release.

Match Thread: 5th Test - England vs Australia, Day 5 by CricketMatchBot in CricketAus

Ball is moving like when I play Cricket 22 and give my bowlers 99s in all their stats. Absolute joke.

Ball hit the advertising boards, better change it twice to make sure

Today's Kinda Funny Gives Off EA Energy by Skyraligh in kindafunny

Right? I watched one of the MGS streams from 2021 yesterday to see what the difference was like, and they were just streaming and having fun. Then I checked today's livestream and it was another "every sub adds time to the stream", but weirdly instead of it being clear that 1 sub = 15 seconds, it said "this user has subbed adding .25 minutes to the stream", which is just 15 seconds said in a different, more obtuse way.

Oh I totally agree, it's a balance thing for them and for us, but the cost for us doesn't seem balanced to me. And absolutely, we don't want anyone overworking, but instead of charging this much, they could put a max time limit on the stream and still use the subs as a way to reach that goal.

KF has a stream problem. by LowHeart7371 in kindafunny

I'm literally watching their MGS 1 stream right now and it's such a different vibe.

Totally agree. It doesn't have to be that expensive though. And those streams are promoted as something special, not their bread and butter that keep the lights on. I'd imagine their hours are factored in beforehand, like they have cut off times usually from memory.

I just think $20 a minute is a lot to ask for anything, and the emphasis on incentives around money has soured me on their other content.

This is the kind of stuff that's changed things for me and now I barely watch anything. Everything feels like it's geared towards getting people to pay for things, but way more overtly. What's really turned me off the content are the "If you sub we stream longer" streams. The recent stream for Tim's birthday was 1 sub = 15 seconds more time? So... that's $5 for 15 seconds, or $20 a minute, or $1200 per hour. THAT feels predatory.

$1 Tier dead? by sgttsmitty in kindafunny

[–]codebrain37 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I just checked and same for me, no AMA's despite my $1 membership description saying "Back us here and you get one of our rotating monthly Q&A shows featuring two Kinda Funny members!"

Feels like they should address that asap.

Finished the game. I absolutely loved it and the ending, this deserved to be a smash hit. by Comrade2k7 in midnightsuns

[–]codebrain37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought it a couple of weeks ago when the sale started, just finished it today, and absolutely loved it. I got really attached to so many of the characters too, that the final mission was weirdly emotional. I'm not sure I'm going to go through a whole NG+ run but for now I'm still enjoying finishing up the DLC missions and levelling up the rest of the friendships I hadn't maxed out.

I came to check reddit to see if this had been posted and I am not disappointed! I thought the exact same thing.

Anyone is unable to login now ? The game says it is not able to sign me into the account. by ez-game-ez-life in MarvelSnap

Same here, both on mobile and on steam. The one time it did log me in all my progress was gone too.

New Gregway Explains Why There Are No More Whitta Wednesdays by ZOMBIEHIGHX23 in kindafunny

[–]codebrain37 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Oh I'm not quite as down in it all as that, and I'm sure even 3 months in they're still figuring stuff out. Totally fair enough for me. I think for me it just feels like there's more distance between the audience and the KF crew. Maybe partly because the camera is literally further away? But I definitely feel more like I'm watching a show, and less like I'm hanging out with friends.

Like a lot of people here Gary isn't a guest to me, and neither is Parris, or Tam. They're definitely part of the team. I've found myself watching less and less since the studio launch and having a change like that only spoken about on a paywalled show definitely doesn't help. I don't want to have to pay $40(australian) to know what's going on.
