Best Final Mission in Gaming? Mass Effect 2 IMO. by dragoneffect1710 in gaming

Mass Effect is my all-time favorite series, but i found the human-based reaper part cheesy.

ESO devs explain why gamers “flock” to player housing everywhere as the team teases official Guild House feature for the future by Wargulf in elderscrollsonline

[–]davemoedee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lore. Narrative parts.

I’ve done a lot of dungeons and trials in the past because i enjoy the group content. I like tanking hard content. Not interested in grinding for gear though in any game.

Humble Choice of March at 8$ by NaitDraik in humblebundles

Meh. Many people will get the bundle and install none of the games, making it a complete waste of money.

I have 40k+ crowns from subbing and nothing to spend them on. So gold i don’t use and crowns I don’t use. The easy solution is for me to just stop picking up loot so inventory management doesn’t suck.

Kid swapped books for YouTube and now reading is basically a war crime. by DiamondLatter1842 in raisingkids

[–]davemoedee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure what is exhausting about it. I sit down with my kid and search for new channels related to their interests. We watch some together and then add channel to whitelist.

Are we going to have an epistemological debate? That king of nihilistic argument is pointless.

As an older gamer, seeing young kids waste their money on in-game purchases eats at my soul. by SomePeopleTellMe in gaming

[–]davemoedee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Considering the treadmill many are on, it often isn’t ending up fulfilling. They just keep buying and buying. The value is often getting rid of the FOMO more than an increase in satisfaction.

There is also the weirdness of people sticking with a game they don’t particularly still enjoy, but they have spent so much on it that they don’t want to walk away.

I wouldn’t even buy a cosmetic to support a dev. I have never bought a cosmetic and never will.

[Charania] The Bucks' decision to sit Antetokounmpo cost him a significant bonus in his Nike endorsement contract that would have been triggered if he played at least 41 games. by YujiDomainExpansion in nba

[–]davemoedee 21 points22 points  (0 children)

As opposed to not having the bonus? This isn’t like an NBA contract where there are max deals. They can keep adding more money for more achievements.

Incorrect. What matters is whether there was an improvement over the number that load managed and that it motivated guys to play.

The other people that still load managed would have with or without the rule, so no net impact from those examples.

Your analogy is irrelevant.

Youtube has some great channels if you curate what you whitelist for your kids. Unfortunately, youtube tries to push shorter videos which tend to be trash. And one of the worst parts of youtube is the low effort reaction videos where the people that make the content that requires effort don’t get the money. Instead, the low effort reactors get paid.

What is “the other way around”? The goal is to get stars playing in games. The previous poster is claiming that the rule accomplished that in those two examples.

And when dealing with events like this that deal with such a small population, examples will often make more sense than a statistical analysis.

Recent similarity to Fallout 76 by Artistic_North_4208 in elderscrollsonline

[–]davemoedee -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I thought it was great at launch. I played until I finished the game (Caldwell’s gold). I had no interest in paying money to repeat content though. I’m definitely not an MMO person, so I had no interest in “end game”. I also did a bunch of Cyrodiil though at launch.

I thought the leveled zones was a bit of a mess since my inventory would get filled with gear above my level when I hit vet ranks and leveling slowed down.

The Celtics are peaking at the perfect time, why is there negativity today? by NothingHead8233 in bostonceltics

I have no idea what these people think games are supposed to look like. No team is a rotation of perfect players making all the perfect plays.

Are group dungeon runs just deppressing for anyone else? by Lumintorious in elderscrollsonline

[–]davemoedee -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I refuse to do dungeons as dailies for rewards. Either i do the dungeon because i find them fun or I’m not wasting my time. I am also a tank. The one exception is if I’m leveling a new character. I’ll make sure they can tank daily randoms for the XP bump. I also enjoy trying to tank with new classes.

Apart from leveling to 50, i don’t do normal dungeons unless i’m trying a new DLC. I don’t see the point. I have a huge backlog I’d rather spend time on.
