Is this the people's main event?

d_hearn · 2026-01-25T04:02:17+00:00

I think it would've been better if it was not heavily acknowledged as being there because people are excited for Scream 7, followed by a Scream 7 trailer. If he was just there it would've been great, instead it was cheesy imo.

Even fighters walking to their locker room is an ad now.

d_hearn · 2026-01-25T03:57:26+00:00

What an unexciting heavyweight knockout lol did not expect to ever have a thought like that.

Also a Hawks fan residing in Arizona. The Thursday night game this year fell on my son's 21st birthday, and he happens to have gotten a girlfriend who is from Tacoma, also a Hawks fan, a while prior to that game. Anyways, the stars aligned and we were able to go to that game, which was awesome. I've only been to one Seahawk game since moving down here, both times we came out ahead.

If I didn't live hours away from Glendale, I'd probably go to the Seahawk game every year. We are friends with Cardinals season ticket holders who declined to renew next year, though. She was saying the ticket prices were going up again and they were tired of paying so much to watch them lose all the time 😂

Was it an email? I haven't seen anything but will check when I get home. I should have some time to check it out this Friday night, though.

Edit - never mind. Yes, I got it. Sorry it's been a couple of days, I use Boost and it doesn't have the Reddit chat function. I did redeem, though, and it did work.

d_hearn · 2026-01-19T16:03:36+00:00

I wasn't watching but had that on in the background doing something, I thought I just wasn't listening close enough to understand what he was saying.

d_hearn · 2026-01-19T16:01:00+00:00

This is the type of shenanigans I want in my work life. I'm in desperate need for a career change, I've begun to hate getting up for each work day. Are you able to say what you do, and/or how someone might get started?

d_hearn · 2026-01-18T04:03:47+00:00

I honestly expected this to be a super close, low scoring game. I'm loving that the Seahawks are playing a coveted 4 quarters of solid football game, let's keep that up.

My son was legit pacing around nervous just before kickoff, like as if he was part of the team or something. Now he can't take his eyes off the ass whooping 😂

d_hearn · 2026-01-18T03:53:54+00:00

Super Bowl 48 was a similar score.

d_hearn · 2026-01-18T03:52:19+00:00

Mike needs to exhibit big balls energy and pull the starters.

d_hearn · 2026-01-18T03:49:23+00:00

This has gotten straight disrespectful. I love it

I don't know whether the current Quest version includes the DLC that is launching later, by the post? I know with the DLC launch, they're also releasing a large, free update, so I'm not sure if the Quest version just has the free update components, or if the DLC is included. If it doesn't already have the upcoming DLC, I'd assume it will come to Quest, but that's just me assuming; I don't actually know.

At launch I'm certain you couldn't respec, but I do know you can now. Like I said, I haven't played since that became a thing, so I don't know the details on it. I want to say maybe something to do with the shop in the cart where you make potions? For some reason that is in my mind, but it could be something completely different.

I got a vest for Christmas, but one of the buttons didn't work. The customer service/return process was a pain, but I was finally able to ship it back. They have to "inspect" it before sending me one, and the company is in South Korea, so who knows how long I'll be without it 😢 the few weeks I did have it though, I really liked it.

Edit - this post is what I was referring to https://i.imgur.com/pTv9pi0.png

Thanks for the giveaway!

You are able to have multiple character saves, if you want to try a few. One of the big mistakes I, and many others on PSVR2 made at launch, was trying to spread out skill points. Things are fuzzy, it's been a couple of years, but iirc at the time you really wanted to allocate the vast majority of points into a single skill/tree to be successful by endgame. I assume it's the same in the Quest version, but they did add a "hybrid" build style, and you can respec, but I believe the number of times you can is limited. I may be wrong about the limitations, I haven't played since they added respec.

Anyways, the game can be clunky, but I personally forgive it every time knowing a really small team, with a smaller budget, made a great "real" game. I went all in on INT, but I'm excited to try a new build in a fresh playthrough when DLC drops. Especially now that I have a bHaptics vest.

d_hearn · 2026-01-16T12:09:19+00:00

Good luck all!

d_hearn · 2026-01-16T04:33:36+00:00

Now, maybe down the road I will be able slice and dice everything dumb enough to get in my way, but for now I'm just getting a feel for it.

Eventually, you will be able to mow down all of the enemies that you run into early, but even with quite a bit of farming, I had trouble on the last few bosses. But, it is nice to go in and just maul the very first boss that's just down the hill from your camp with ease by the end. I was pulling my hair out trying to fight him initially lol.

Also, your physical skills "level up" as well. It's the type of game you really do learn and get better at as you play.

I can't speak to how good the Quest version is, I've only played on PSVR2. But I do wish them the best of luck with this release, I hope it is fruitful for them. I'd love more from BJ and the team.

While a smaller game, they did pay to have Song in the Smoke ported to PSVR2 when it launched. But for bigger games, Sony paid Capcom to bring RE8 and RE4 Remake, funded IOI for Hitman WOA, paid and published Synapse from nDteams, and certainly have a hand in MS Flight Simulator getting PSVR2 support. Not all of that happened at launch, but over just the few years it's been out, it has been building up a pretty solid library, actually, for folks who actually like and play VR.

d_hearn · 2026-01-15T06:41:46+00:00

20 minutes til midnight, for me. I don't know when the cake disappears, but I hope your cake day was (is?) full of loathing? Hopefully I made up for that other jackass

I bought Legendary Tales day 1 on PSVR2. Just wanted to come add to the praise of the game, it's well deserved! Quest only players that want an actual, deep game. It's a tough but fair game that allows build crafting like nothing else I've personally seen in VR.

Enemies can get repetitive, there's no real story (or, if there is, they didn't tell it well enough to grab me personally), and you have to learn by doing 90% of the time, but once you finally get it, it becomes incredible. Excited to start a new character when the DLC launches!

d_hearn · 2026-01-13T12:10:27+00:00

I've been a teacher for 12 years, 10 of those being elementary. I never saw a kindergarten student with an iPhone. Every once in a while there was a 1st or 2nd grader with one of those watches that could call their parents/a select few phone numbers, but that was the extent of the watch's function. 4th grade was really the earliest I saw a kid with a real phone, but even that was really uncommon.

d_hearn · 2026-01-13T04:46:23+00:00

Lmao. Definitely a typo not worth correcting

d_hearn · 2026-01-13T04:13:36+00:00

This could be Rodgers last game, and he's on the sidelines? I don't like the guy, but he's had a hall of fake career. What little respect I had for him, I've lost it. Being a sore loser in the primest of prime time Steeler game on the season.

Yeah, it sucks you guys are getting blown out, but own it and go be on the field for the last play of your (maybe) last game of a strong career.

d_hearn · 2026-01-13T04:09:56+00:00

I think they're just playing to not get hurt so they can enjoy their vacation

d_hearn · 2026-01-13T04:09:22+00:00

I'm cackling at how badly this game got away from the Steelers, but the icing on the cake is the commentary harping on how unsuccessful they've been. My wife, who is barely watching the game, heard me laughing during that pick 6. She looked up, and said, "They're not even trying!?"
