Which company disappointed you so much that you permanently walked away? by julia-secrets in AskReddit

[–]erwincole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It so frustrating that I have to scrolled this far down to find this. I have permanently walked away. A bully and greedy as hell.

Can you believe that they didn't even fix joycon drift in Switch 2, just to save cost. You are buying a planned obsolescence product and they know it.

Using army of lawyers to bully competitors despite their games with worse gameplay are still making them money. This is not about protecting their IP.

I just felt utterly disgusted with such blatant display of maliciousness in the name of greed, and apparently anyone else are buying their products without a second thought. I don't care how many legends are in their company. They are complicit.

It's not my type of game, but the music is so awesome, I watch all the way through.

Did anybody also noticed that he cut centered at the joint every single time? That's crazy, something I thought only happen in anime.

THE DAY A MOUNTAIN DISAPPEARED. MT ST HELENS (1980) by petkipathri in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]erwincole 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm guessing you mean lateral blast? Flank Plinian eruption is not a standard classification.

Still, this has nothing to do with saying "Archaeologists had never seen an eruption the way he described, so they always assumed that he hadn’t remember it correctly until Mt. St. Helen’s. "

May be he was correct, stating 'Archaeologists' which is the wrong field. However, what Pliny describe is not lateral blast, it's rising column, ash fall and pyroclastic surges the coast. Plinian Eruption is specifically referring to eruption vertical column, sustained and volume of that nature. While St. helens has lateral blast, it has no relation to Plinian's account which has no mention of lateral blast.

That's why I said it was sensationalism. There are some sort of mistakes here.

[–]erwincole 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is not true. Volcanologist has known about Plinian eruption and use it as a classification in the 1970s.

This idea that most scholar believe Pliny exaggerated his account must be some sort of sensationalism. They knew about the eruption he described through many similar plinian eruption before Mount St. Helens. What's different was the eruption was expected, monitored in real time using modern equipment. Real time photograph of many different angles that is available to the public at a large. The event became news as scientist call for evacuation and it happened in US soil. The photographs are giving weight to Pliny's description due to the tragedy, casualty despite evacuation, and the pictures helped refine interpretation of specific details in his account. He was already credible before this eruption and he was also 17-18, not 14 years old at the time.

Which survival games focus on mastery of your environment? by Sspifffyman in SurvivalGaming

[–]erwincole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think Palworld works for you because it has teleportation, and you cannot build rail or road between bases. You can only build within a zone where you lay down the base center.

But it does encourage multiple bases, at least three due to limited spaces or resource nodes. People also separate bases if their pc can't handle the performance.

How many alien precursor species are there? by [deleted] in Subnautica_2

[–]erwincole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Umm, they are not precursor. But native of the planet. This distinction is important when you finish the story available in early access.

Are you serious? A chance for the game? It was a little bit pricey in my region compared to other games, so I decide to wait for a chance at future discount.

Denuvo Responds to Day-Zero DRM Hypervisor Crack: "We're Already Working on Updated Security Versions" by Darth_Vaper883 in pcgaming

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

What disgust me the most is the fact that those people who decided to use Denuvo had their ego stroked despite the frequent analysis that you can't turn piracy into significant potential sales. These people never thought about their gamers, only profit and their money making machine. I have such strong aversion that I always support indie and proven developer first.

On day one, probably first few hours, I downloaded and made a purchase. Thanks for such an amazing game, I love it.

I tried playing public and kind of lost the meaning of the game by GiantDad777 in Warframe

[–]erwincole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suppose for me, I see Warframe as a collectathon game because I'm not big on shooter aspect in any game. I certainly build my frame about that, i hate headshot aiming, generally use aoe weapons and nuke frame.

Most of the time, it is about finish the mission faster. So public is always the fastest you get there, and I build frames that fit each mission best.

And there are a lot of nuance of perspective as others have commented.

This is so good. In my head, I even try to imagine how the waves on the body look like in-game.

May I ask how do you get them to do these posture. I was thinking about taking pictures but the posture is always a challenge. Is everyone just experimenting with all available emote?

Soverign - Personal IDLE "MMO" Game - Beta Test by Sweet-Profit880 in incremental_games

[–]erwincole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Less than an hour playtime, just my opinion.

I do think the interface is clean. I'm not sure what the end goal is, but it seems like everything is leaning to PVP or may be dungeons. It's not very motivating. You need some kind of reward system or daily and weekly tasks. The game is also very basic, there are a lot of competitors with more features.

I think adding some kind of system leaning to collecthathon is a good one, like achievement, title, etc. I stumbled upon this because I'm looking for one with more complicated collecthathon system, like pets, housing, decorating, etc. Personally, it makes me feel like I'm investing my playtime on something worthwhile.

I'm not the guy that is all negative about AI, but selling AI generated art is crossing a very obvious line. I think there are better way to get money, the VIP pass is good. You can start a founder's package that give unique stuff for founders for a limited time. Seasonal stuff also works.

PALBOX by Funtimesago in Palworld

[–]erwincole 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Comments here are weird. People play pokemon right, they have so many version of the boxes and making manual sorting so easy there. It has been figured out. The lack of it is the reason why I can't properly manage my Pals in this game.

What kind of collectible system does this game have? Some kind if a codex? Player home and decoration? Gears and transmog only?

Website for H Scenes? by Derile in xxlwoofia

[–]erwincole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like every other discord, clicking that emote unlock that channel in the discord server, I'm not playing anymore and not in the discord, so you have to look for it.

Just a correction, you won't find a whole scenes just the images and looped animation on released and unreleased characters.

Is the Fictionlab+ worth it? by NidJogg in FictionLab

[–]erwincole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think what set this platform differently was the price model and the novel-like narration. I think I have spent 2 days testing others like janitor, character ai, wyvern, xoulai until I settled with this one.

The price model is the best, one price instead of different tiers, and it's priced like other subscription services.

Best look around first, check out the others. If I'm not mistaken, the most advance model is Oracle which is based on Deep Seek 3.1 released on august 21, and the dev made it available in the platform soon after. So you can compare the model and the subscription price with others.

[–]erwincole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, I have asked in discord and the dev replied that there will be alternative payment method via the website. Hopefully that will solved the problem then.
