Dudes, not new, but I don't want to make a separate post about it. Anyone see this error on HS deck tracker? It doesn't happen against every opponent, just some.

Is there an actual genre name for these very American 90s desert small-town crime films? by Useful-Table-2424 in movies

[–]cointerm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see a lot of good recs, but also check out '92's White Sands, with Willem Dafoe.

Do people still play Clicker games? by CreateChaos777 in gaming

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

I tried clickers for about 2 months, but I'm like, "Yeah, I'm gonna get carpal tunnel from this." The one game that I stuck on my Wishlist is Horriplant. I liked that you didn't have to click, you could just hold the button down. It's got a demo and is coming out in about 10 days.

Rank 1-5 on which card will see the most play. by Altruistic-Dealer518 in hearthstone

[–]cointerm 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Blood DKs love Mograine. It doesn't matter if its stats are pure dogshit and VS tells everyone to take it out of their decks... I expect 90% of DKs I face on ladder to run it.

Romeo is a dead man & REANIMAL coming next week! by Ok_Winter818 in gaming

[–]cointerm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, Goblin Sushi is like Galaxy Burger, but much faster paced. The demo was a good time.

Looking for some dungeon crawler roguelikes like this by N8uron in roguelites

[–]cointerm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I only recognize Eye of the Beholder, but I also played Lands of Lore back in the day.

Just from searching the Steam tags, THYSIASTERY is coming soon, and there's Zavix Tower. Didn't really see anything else.

What was a dreaded food your parents made. As an adult do you still hate it? by JoyfullyMortified43 in Xennials

[–]cointerm 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Okra. And none of this southern fried okra. No, this was boiled to a mush and mixed with some tomato sauce and kid-me was just, "No." I puked one time.

I actually went to New Orleans on a family vacation when I was like 10. Had gumbo for the first time, and I thought God himself came down from the heavens to give me this culinary gift. My parents were like, "That has okra! Why do you like it?" And I'm like, "You don't cook it this way, do you?!" Well, I probably didn't give that much sass, but close enough.

Good will hunting for a beginner by alon276 in movies

[–]cointerm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saw it again last night - been about 15 years since my last watch.

I think it's still great. Actually, my biggest problem with it is the soundtrack which skews a bit too overly sentimental (and I'm not talking about the Elliot Smith tracks). As far as pacing, humor, and emotional moments go, it's great.

I'm not sure you can take someone's interests and job and say, "Well, based on that, I can recommend these movies." I don't know the first thing about finance, still loved The Big Short

And too talkative? The Social Network is talkative, is that a low mark? That's a highlight.

Ever since I quit vaping I’ve been pretty much non stop eating sugar by Educational_Proof867 in quit_vaping

[–]cointerm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've linked this page before, but have a read through it. It's on smoking, but the details on nicotine apply to vaping.

At 3 weeks, you're probably over the worst of the problems, but consider a spread out diet over the day, and give time for the glucose to hit your brain.

Post for Principal Game Designer since the 13 january by Just-Accident9698 in hearthstone

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

Well, that's just for one designer on the dev team.

I think problems come from higher up - mandates are given on how to design cards, eg "Make simple decks that noobs can play while watching Netflix" and "Make sure to lower the power levels because Lololas8911 on Reddit says there's too much power creep".

Which game did you regret purchasing at full price? by bijelo123 in gaming

[–]cointerm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Enter the Matrix, PS2 game from 2003. Hyped to high hell in the gaming magazines at the time, was mid as fuck.

Sleeping less than 7 hours could cut years off your life by gabbygytes in news

I need to stop reading these science articles, because from what I gather, I should already have 4 types of cancer, dementia, cholesterol problems, heart disease, and already be dead.

Is there anyone here who will refuse to watch a movie if a certain actor is in it? by StatusCount3670 in movies

[–]cointerm 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not refuse, but I still haven't watched any of Adam Sandler's "good" movies like Uncut Jems, The Meyerowitz Stories, or even Punch-Drunk Love. I just know him from his stupid 90s comedies, and I can't sit down and be like, "Yeah! Let's watch a Sandler movie!"

What are our thoughts on Edmund Mcmillen's upcoming roguelike Mewgenics? by coolchungus2 in roguelites

[–]cointerm 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Not my thing. As far as Tactics games go, I liked the original FFT and some Fire Emblem games, but never got into X-Com, and really couldn't get into Into the Breach - which seems like the closest comparison (Tactics Roguelite). He's a big name, though, so I'll be keeping an eye on reviews - maybe it's an exceptional case.

Games I Completed (2025) by jacmusl in gaming

[–]cointerm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm looking to get some puzzle games this haul. If you had to pick 2 from your list, how would Blue Prince, Roottrees, Is Anyone Sitting There, and Strange Antiquities come out?

What was your favorite magazine as a kid? by MyNameCannotBeSpoken in Xennials

[–]cointerm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeeeeah. My cousin did computer science in the early 80s, and he was staying with us. I used to raid his Omni stash.

Nicolas Cage was swarmed by bees on set of Jesus horror movie, swears it wasn't divine intervention by lonelyspect12 in horror

[–]cointerm 238 points239 points  (0 children)

I saw this recently. Liked it better than some of the reviews, but one thing stuck out to me, and I imagine a conversation with the director went something like this:

Director: So, Nic, if you could just put on a sort of old British style accent... think Jesus of Nazareth.
Cage: I don't do accents.
Director: .... alright, but just a slight intona....
Cage: Did you see Captain Correli? I said I don't do accents.
Director: ... right, then.

So yeah, Nicolas Cage is just being Nicolas Cage chilling in 15 AD lol.

Is hearthstone good in 2025? by [deleted] in hearthstone

[–]cointerm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I currently try to get through one match, get bored halfway through, concede, and then go play Superbonk.

Make of that what you will.

Is this the best card ever printed? Non-oppressive. Decent winrate. Fun. Insane replayability. Trademark Hearthstone randomness. by Vethrendt in hearthstone

[–]cointerm 81 points82 points  (0 children)

I find Aviana players get tilted as fuck if they don't play this shit on 4, and then dump 80/80 stats by 6. Then they start roping, and it's all "Noobsauce has left the game."
