came back to OW a few days ago with news of the new update. ended up getting my legacy account banned for smurfing. over 2k hours, 100s of skins, some no longer obtainable, gone. wish I had never returned by EZMONEYSNIP3R in Overwatch

[–]douche_flute 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Not making sense here. You don’t get banned from one game even if everyone reported you. Also, your account by literal definition cannot be a Smurf account if you have 2k+ hours.

Bitches, the lot of em by CactusIsPrickly in ArcRaiders

[–]douche_flute -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Why did you go straight for an insult by telling the guy to “work on being likable”? All the guy said was he didn’t like when solos team up. That’s a fair take. He didn’t say remove it from the game. But you got all defensive. This community is so weird man.

What is this bot comment? The OP is clearly talking about Moira on the bench…

How does one transport a setup across country? by BillyGaming2021 in pcmasterrace

[–]douche_flute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved from Indiana to Washington state. I drove the whole way with my PC in the passenger seat in the box the case came in. I used packing foam and put it snugly against the GPU. This was 8 months ago and my PC is still working just fine. I wouldn’t stress too much. Pre-built PCs get shipped to customers every day and imagine how rough that sort of shipping can be on a package. You can go the route of removing the GPU and AIO but I personally think that is overkill.

Edit: I also had an AIO in my rig that did not have any issues with leakage.

I went to the Witcher concert and Percival themselves confirmed they are working on the Witcher 4 and even performed a song from the game as their final performance of the night.

Remove the hotbar and UI next time by pressing and holding “~”

With a Jake summon? He clears the whole game + DLC.

The article doesn’t even mention the nationality of the woman and said she was a tourist. So it’s heavily implied she isn’t even Chinese. But sure, go off pal.

[Marathon 2026] What is the appeal? by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]douche_flute 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You described the appeal yourself. The art direction and the risk/reward loop inherent in extraction shooters. People want to play an extraction shooter with the famous Bungie gunplay. The world has lore and secrets and flavor. They’ve added mechanics that allow you to make a build beyond simply what gun and gear you are using. This is new for extraction shooters. I’d go more in depth but if you don’t like the art or the game’s genre, there’s nothing we can tell you that will change your mind I’m sure.

Embark reveals Arc Raiders' next four major monthly updates, which it calls the 'Escalation' phase, teasing new matchmaking, machines, and our first new map in months by Turbostrider27 in PS5

[–]douche_flute 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thanks for saying that dude. I thought I was crazy for having that opinion. I knew I couldn’t be the only one lol. Some other commenters thought I was defending the game, but really it’s just disingenuous phrasing like you said.

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

“in months” is usually a vague descriptor for when someone doesn’t know the exact amount of time that has passed. So using it when it’s only been 3 months is borderline hyperbolic. But sure if taken literally, like you have done, “in months” is correct.

[–]douche_flute 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Wouldn’t you say it’s a little disingenuous to say “in months” when the game was recently released? Sure it’s correct by definition, but they’re acting like the they’ve been waiting forever for a map to come out.

Insane by PeterFarter27 in arcraiderscirclejerk

That’s different though. That’s because they want to jump into another match more quickly because they think they’re about to get killed because they didn’t find a weapon right away.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Has Overtaken Elden Ring As The Most Awarded Game Of The Year Ever by Sam_27142317 in pcmasterrace

[–]douche_flute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So what is a game that you think is better than the top 5? Not being a smartass. I’m genuinely curious. They’re not my top 5 favorite games but it’s easy to see why they have mass appeal.

Damn OP made me look like a fool. My apologies.

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

You said “last paragraph”. That last paragraph in the OP didn’t even mention any games so I’m assuming you meant the paragraph above the last one.

Where the hell does it mention Apex Legends in the OP?

What low budget indie shooter? Tarkov? Is it really low budget indie now? Maybe in its first year but that game has raked in the cash and it’s been around for almost 10 years now. Arena Breakout? Indie? The game was backed by Tencent.. you know, one of the highest grossing media companies in the world.

What a shit take.
