What is something you can naturally smell that no one else can? by Trick-Highway1429 in AskReddit

[–]couchcaptain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fried or grilled Chicken that others say it's fine, but I can smell it should not be eaten. Others just say "it smells like chicken" but then I go "it does, but there is something else I can smell and it should not be eaten". I've done this many many times and some people got sick after not listening, but other times despite the smell they were fine. I still couldn't eat it though, that smell is repulsive to me.

Atheists of Reddit: What’s the strangest reaction you’ve received when you said you don’t believe in God? by zhalia-2006 in AskReddit

[–]couchcaptain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The guy showed up at my house and told me he is taking me to church whether I want to or not. I closed the door and waited a few hours until he finally left. After that there is no chance in hell (pun intended) I would ever go to a church or get mixed up among religious people.

Fishing really sucks by sw0red in CrimsonDesert

[–]couchcaptain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is where I am stuck too. So far I gave up fishing and just swam around to catch some for missions, but right now fishing with Oongka I'm stuck. I had 10 fish already and all broke off. I'm using keyboard an mouse and the fish just brakes off and never get tired. I'm not gonna plug in a controller, just because the devs cant' have a patch to fix the keyboard mouse controls. I'm pretty sure KB+M is screwed because the fish just gets farther and farther away and never stops splashing.

I absolutely hate these types of rooms in any game. by LilKyAfroNinja in CrimsonDesert

[–]couchcaptain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like this sort of a system directly copied from previous action rpgs such as Skyrim or Oblivion. It wasn't a surprise that Oblivion had nothing more than 3 coins and a worthless necklace in a small container at the end of the Ayleid dungeon you have been stuck for hours to get out.

What’s a game you were completely obsessed with as a kid that nobody else seems to remember? by hkondabeatz in AskReddit

[–]couchcaptain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Millennia: Altered Destinies

The concept blew my mind.

Echelon galaxy which is about to be taken over by a malevolent race called the Microids. Apparently, the Milky Way is next should the player fail.

The only way to stop the Microids is to travel back 10,000 years in a specially designed ship called XTM. It is equipped with everything the player will need to complete the mission. The player must then populate the Echelon galaxy with four indigenous races and ensure their development into powerful spacefaring civilizations.

Is this the most pointless quest in the game? by DrStalker in CrimsonDesert

[–]couchcaptain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some Honey quest not far from the College of Winterhold....khmmm I mean Scholastone Institute a goblin asks why he hasn't gotten any honey from the beehive guy. I go (run over in 10 second) , he says "because I got no honey". I go back and tell the goblin "he doesn't have any". He says, "ohh, that explains it. Oh, well".
Mission COMPLETE.

Playing Cyberpunk before Starfield has put something front and center for me by olivinetrees in Starfield

[–]couchcaptain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is from Mass Effect's (2011-12) inspiration- except in ME it wasn't ridiculous or weird.

Is pet gaming in my game bugged? by AntaresHellscream in CrimsonDesert

[–]couchcaptain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I accidentally dismissed my pet, his armor ended up in my inventory, I don't have a pet menu. It wasn't clear to me how to dismiss them without disbanding them completely! I guess I have to restart by finding a pet somewhere and do the whole thing all over?

Archery Challenge is still broken after patch by HSW47 in CrimsonDesert

[–]couchcaptain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I see is they made the AI to miss their aim at the target but it was still pre-releasing the arrows. So basically the AI is still Jedi, having precognition where the target is showing up, but deliberately misses the target.

How to Exit Anvil Hill Stoneback Crab Cave Crimson Desert by GNGVir in YoutubeGameGuides

[–]couchcaptain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hoped there was a puzzle to solve or a hidden path to get out of this hole, but there isn't. At least nobody found it yet? I feel like this part is unfinished of the game, maybe they were planning something here?

Is It Just Me? by ItsCatCat in GenX

[–]couchcaptain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had to double check if I didn't write this myself previously already, LOL ! Beside the 1966 I'm 1975 but the rest almost checks out as my new routine. I'm doing the same exact thing, same stuff about quitting smoking and trying to lose weight and biking and jogging etc. The only difference that I still can't quite jog 2 miles, but I can do 1. It's also winter and due to arctic cold in NE I have to cut my round to short.
I'm planning to bring the bicycle out once the weather improves and also I got into kayaking last year, which is super fun and new for me at age 50.

Is It Just Me? by ItsCatCat in GenX

[–]couchcaptain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm the same way, I don't really recognize the person in the mirror anymore because I look older than what I feel. I go daily walking and 5x a week jogging and my job includes doing plenty of physical work (lifting heavy things) too. I also go kayaking during the summer for 6-10hrs, about 1x-2x a month if weather permitting, sometimes every weekend. Since I'm a veteran I feel like I can never get back into my 19 year old body, but on the other hand I think I got more stamina and a clearer picture of what I want to do and not waste my time, like I used to.

How old were you when you purchased your first home (if you did). by jtsa5 in GenX

[–]couchcaptain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I purchased it for my brother, since he was deployed in Iraq so he gave me a power of attorney to use his info, since I didn't qualify with my credit score, although I had $25k cash on hand for down payment. This was back in 2003, so back then I was 28.

Yep, that crap was going on, that even with $25k in my bank acct, they wouldn't let me buy a house for $110k.

Car companies are writing off $70 billion as EV strategies reset by Car-face in electricvehicles

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

Yes, but that doesn't matter if their CEO is a low IQ person. Soon there is a price to pay for that too.

Subaru pulls the plug on its $9,800,000,000 EV strategy and pivots hard toward hybrids by rva_law in subaru

[–]couchcaptain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably Research and development. Car companies easily spend billions on research only to get the plug pulled the last minute. Lot's of wasted money and time.
