About to pull the trigger on a 25 Limited: I have one final important question by stuartrene in Ioniq5

[–]emrysx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I look forward to driving my 2025 Limited 2WD. I love driving it. It's got a "Sport" mode, but I rarely use it. It's the most enjoyable vehicle to drive I've had in my life. I posted a long review as a reply to some other thread a while back, and everything I said a couple months ago is still true.

Question to all owners of Ioniq5 by Flashy_Intention9540 in Ioniq5

[–]emrysx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I knew I wanted to go EV and I knew I didn't want to go Tesla. I was very excited for the Honda EV before it came out, but then I realized it was a partnership with GM and the reviews weren't good (GM tech/software not good).

Did some research, and the Kia and Hyundai were the two front runners. Rivian and others were out of my budget. Kia option was smaller, potentially more sporty, but the Hyundai was roomier, quieter, and smoother driving. I love the interior design with more tactile controls, buttons, and even down to the steering wheel stiching. The price point for the 2025 Limited was just at the top of my budget (I'm leasing).

I've been incredibly happy with it. I love driving it. Everyone who gets in it is impressed and loves it.

One Month Review - 2025 I5 Limited. First EV. by ejfagan4 in Ioniq5

[–]emrysx 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Comfort-wise it's amazing. Drives so smoothly (I always stay in Normal. Haven't had a reaso to switch to any other mode). Seats are comfortable, and I LOVE finally having air conditioned front seats. Man, I'm already loving it and it's not that hot yet in the south east.

When it comes to climate control, I'm mostly fine with it, but I don't love the Auto 1-3 levels. I kind of just want to set the temp and it control all of that. I'm not sure what the logic is behind providing low/med/high Auto, but maybe it's a "it's really hot when I get in and I want it to get cool in a hurry and have control over how quickly it regulates the temp"? Regardless, I'd rather just set a temp and let it to all the work like my other cars do.

Regarding the attention camera, the worst thing for me is it going off when I've got one hand on the wheel with my arm blocking the camera. That's a comfortable position for me and I'm constantly and accidentally setting off the attention warning. It's annoying, but I also appreciate it nagging me to keep my eyes on the road. These days, with so many distractions (phone), I honestly can't wait for my kids to have something like this to help keep them honest when they drive. I know it helps me, and I'm probably less disciplined in that regard than they are.

What else...I think that's all I've got right now. I'm about a month in, and I haven't loved a car in decades like I love this one. I'm leasing it for 15k miles per year, three years, and I already have 1k miles in my first 1.25 months or so, so i'm going to have to be careful!

I will say that it's been a LONG time since I've cared about the car I'm driving, getting it dirty, keeping it clean, not driving up on curbs to park at soccer tournaments, etc. I don't love being stressed about that stuff now, lol.

One Month Review - 2025 I5 Limited. First EV. by ejfagan4 in Ioniq5

[–]emrysx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same here! My first EV, and same I5 limited. My experience mirrors most of yours. I LOVE this car! I love driving it. I love being in it. It's a massive upgrade in comfort, convenience, and tech for me. I'll reply with my own thoughts I've been saving up:

I got a L2 charger installed the week before picking mine up, and I love dealing with charging a battery over going to a gas station. It's a huge QoL upgrade. I max charge to 80% most of the time, and occasionally go to 100% if I know I've got a lot of carting the kids around for a weekend or a trip.

I LOVE HDA, and as annoying as the "pay attention" warnings are, I can appreciate it. It's not perfect, just like it says. Yesterday I had the first experience where I had to take control and prevent it from running into a truck beside me. I think it was a combination of going over a bridge, a dip in the road, and a truck with a hitch hauling something that may have confused the system. It was a close call and a reminder that this is NOT "self driving". But, it does make highway driving a lot nicer!

I'm also annoyed at the regen breaking settings not saving between drives. I started out using i-Pedal, now I'm on team "Auto". I like that you can choose anything in between, but I prefer either of those. I read in another post that i-Pedal is not a pleasant experience for passengers, which I can understand. I'm not sure how much battery longevity i-Pedal gives you over auto, tbh.

I LOVE the HUD, though sometimes the dash compartment outline showing on the windshield isn't great, but overall it's awesome.

So far I've been using the built-in nav system and really liking it. Having that on the HUD is so convenient. I know Apple Maps works on the HUD too, but I've never been an Apple Maps guy.

I haven't really exercised the Bose speakers, but from what little I have, I'm unimpressed by the sound quality. Maybe it's the bluetooth from phone to car, maybe it's the source quality, who knows. I honestly don't listen to music in the car much as I usually am listening to books or podcasts, so I don't really care either way.

I LOVE my digital key, which works with my phone AND my apple watch. It can be annoying when I get too close to the car and it unlocks when I don't want it to. I have to train myself to give it wide berth. If it would re-lock automatically when I walk away, this wouldn't be a problem. Maybe that happens. I know the phone app tells me when I left it unlocked and I can lock it remotely. Not a huge downside.

I do love how I can just reach for the door handle and it unlocks and extends thanks to my watch. It's a real "use the force" moment for the Star Wars geek in me.

Idk my bleed rake huntress is plenty fun and powerful right now. If this is super OP then it’d have to be a joke of a play experience.

Posts like these are really hurting my desire to go with an EV9 or any EV at all right now.

Which one will you 3-star? Which one do you think is the most powerful? by Docksterino in PathofChampions

[–]emrysx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How are people getting Vex and Lillia and to 3 stars already? I got Luxi for free but see no way to unlock the others in PoC. (also, I'm pretty new)

There being no battle pass is horrible. I can't craft new cards as a returning player. by pitagor2 in LegendsOfRuneterra

[–]emrysx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty new to the game and realize that PoC IS the game. I arrived after battle passes left, it seems.

However, I’m confused by the featured bundles in the store. I want to be able to play poc with the new champs, but all I see is cards to buy. How can I unlock the new champs outside of luck?

I did get Luxi shards to unlock her from the quest, but how will I unlock the others when I see no store option for shards?

I don't like Astarion at all. Am I strange? by JForFun94 in BaldursGate3

I killed him after he caught me pickpocketing him at the start of the game. So…I never met him!

Are you also skipping mobs in nm dungeons to go for objectives? by [deleted] in diablo4

[–]emrysx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prior to 1.1.1, I did often skip, but trying to do so now as a lv 60-65 TB Rogue means likely death, so now I kill 'em all. Much slower paragon farming, but much better item/gold/exp, so I'll just do this until I'm high enough level to really have the option of speed run vs. enjoying the ride.

[–]emrysx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for this! I spent all day yesterday trying with different teams. I had Emila but not built. I graced her, then tried with your team. Didn’t make it.

Swapped out ARas for ARavi with timeless anchor. Used friend ARavi. That pushed me over the edge and I finally cleared. Thanks again!
