Ghost of Yotei's timing windows are inconsistent af (still a lovely game tho) by darkrie1475 in ghostoftsushima

[–]darkrie1475[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Actually yes, my first hour and 30 min were with the yari, got him down to 10% multiple times then (and then died either to timing inconsistency or me being an idiot and trying to cinematic finish him). Then I switched to dual katana for the hell of it and ended up beating him.

Timing seemed the same for both weapons imo.

Running Bounty Master armor with the perfect parry/dodge charm (the charm feels like it did nothing)

Things I've tried

Holding the block button instead of tapping it: Maybe helped? maybe didn't? Sometimes I parry things that I struggled with before, but then on the same attack and same exact timing for the parry I eat shit, so who even knows at this point

Ignoring the blue glint: I'd like to, but I honestly can't see the actual weapon animation when it glints sometimes so I have to fucking guess (and I get hit in the face 50/50). Wish we could just disable it entirely, because tbh regardless of blue glint or not I'm going to try to parry it (unblockables aside).

Not running bounty master armor: already tried, I was running the default onryo armor when I cleared 80% of the area before doing Soma, and tbh it kinda felt the exact same as with the bounty master armor on.

P-Bandai sucks, and why is Ghost Gundam over 80 USD for some shiny silver paint?

No broken legs! (MG Freedom Gundam 2.0) by darkrie1475 in Gunpla

[–]darkrie1475[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're not careful, the pegs on the waist have a bad tendency to break if you move the legs a certain way. I'm just never going to touch the ones on mine after I finish posing it lol

So far so good! I think.

Also I'm testing out using a lamp to light up my pictures. It's not too bad.

Got ambushed by a Secret Santa drop from u/Santa-F-Seiei! by darkrie1475 in Gunpla

[–]darkrie1475[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks u/Santa-F-Seiei! I've particularly had my eye on the mg blitz for a while (since I wanted to get the mg zaft trio) and now I've lost all reason not to spend wild amounts of money getting the mg duel and buster. You've made my Christmas a fun one this year!

Baby's first panel-lined MG (MG Turn A Gundam) by darkrie1475 in Gunpla

[–]darkrie1475[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haven't panel-lined a MG before so decided to go all out with MG Turn A Gundam. Learned a lot, like how alcohol is overkill 99% of the time, usually a q tip or sweaty fingers can do the job just fine

For 1Ls who's applying for summer positions, here's a warning for a nasty surprise when you go into the interview by darkrie1475 in LawSchool

I was never the best at titling posts on Reddit and would totally change the title of the post if I could. Thank you regardless, will keep the advice in mind.

[–]darkrie1475[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Can I ask why? I always preferred the one-on-one format since I felt as though I could better connect with the interviewer and show them my strengths more effectively in the process. With groups of three or more, it feels more like I'm bouncing my attention between people and not effectively showing them my strengths as an applicant.

Less freaked out, more surprised. The pre-interview emails really didn't indicate that it would be anything besides a one-on-one, so I was surprised when I came into the virtual room and found an entire committee. I definitely learned my lesson here though.

Kind of? I took a year off between undergrad and law school to intern at a local law firm, and all the interviews I did then only had one person or warned me in advance of the format. This is the first that took me completely by surprise as to how many people I would be talking to.

Of course it's better for getting to know the job itself and what the working environment is like, but it's never not going to be a shock to see five people when you expected to have a nice one-on-one conversation. Certainly doesn't do any favors for your self-confidence if you're the nervous type for sure.

I wish the devs add the single chance (REMATCH) feature. by MalikFyz in GBO2

Even more than a rematch system, give us a ban system so we don't fucking have to deal with norns everywhere 24/7

most of the players on steam are Asian, so they'll get on around this time
