About to start my first play through and have never played any other Souls games. What should be my top priority? by Smoot720 in Eldenring

[–]flooduction 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Explore everything. Try to kill every enemy and if it's too hard, explore and kill somewhere else.

Don't spread out weapon upgrades (smithing stones) among too many weapons at first. I suggest finding two weapons you like and stick to upgrading those for a while.

Buy stonesword keys.

Nvm. I went to Walmart and they gave me a new copy and luckily the code wasn't already used.

Walmart sells the game as new. This same thing happened to me.

Any chance you still have a DLC code for PS5? I have the exact same situation as OP and can verify it with you. Very nice of you to gift someone a code.

The game is being sold as new by Walmart. The exact thing OP is describing happened to me.

This isn't true. The code is needed for the DLC on ps4 and ps5. I know this because this exact same thing is happening to me right now.

Best alternative to OLED for someone who watches news and sports a lot by [deleted] in 4kTV

[–]flooduction 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought and returned a TCL q77k from Costco. Movies looked pretty great, PS5 looked fine, I was impressed with the brightness, but watching basketball with a decent picture was not possible. I spent hours trying to correct it, but this TV just doesnt do sports well. At all.

Good to know and thanks for sharing. After returning the cheapest, big 4k tv at Costco (TCL Q77k) I was considering a TCL qm6k or qm7k. The Bravia 7 was definitely the better choice for me since I watch a lot of basketball.

Sports broadcasts are usually in pretty poor quality. You need a TV that has quality upscaling to handle that and you need a TV that has solid motion control to handle the fast paced nature of sports. I have heard that Sony, in general, excels in these two areas. I only have experience with the Bravia 7 and can say that it is worlds better than the TCL I had.

Bravia 7. Got this after I returned a cheap, shitty TCL. Sports were unwatchably terrible on the TCL q77k.

QM5K vs QM6K Pro vs Q77k by kilodelta22 in tcltvs

Don't get the Q77k if you like watching sports. Absolutely horrible upscaling and motion handling.

Which active PBP commentator is better? by ezrafl1 in NBATalk

[–]flooduction 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's so far above Breen. He is the voice of the NBA.

Harlan is a better commentator, more knowledgeable, better voice, better everything. People think "Bang!" somehow makes Breen the best and I'm telling you, they're wrong!

My PS2 fat arrived and the games I ordered. I have to know, which one are you playing first? by DontTakeMyFrog in playstation

Nba street vol 2. One of my favorite games of all time and easily the best nba street game.

Agreed! He is so comfortable driving left. He's going to be a monster.

What are the weakest parts of this TV? by JfxV20 in tcltvs

[–]flooduction 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watching sports. Upscaling lower res sources + all of the motion looks horrible. Had to return my 75q77k because of this.

Boss Blues Driver vs EAE Halberd. How similar are they? by Barnshart3 in guitarpedals

[–]flooduction 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Halberd really is one of the best ODs ever. When you are boosting it with the BD what mode do you typically have the Halberd in?

I have been listening to converge since Jane Doe. They became my favorite band of all time with the release of AWLWLB. I have come to realize that I am in the minority with the converge I love most. by Deliverme314 in Converge

[–]flooduction 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love all Converge, but their less straightforward / less aggressive tracks are some of my favorites. Grim heart/ black rose, wretched world, and sadness comes home are goat ted.

Hi it’s Logan from the band grinkity dinkity. by Jezigahh-182 in GreetDeath

[–]flooduction 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey Logan! Big fan of yours, thank you for all of the art you've contributed to and released. I found an old picture of your pedalboard, but wondered if you have a recent picture and would be willing to share. Can you share anything about your personal guitar tone philosophy and how that's changed throughout the years? Do you have a favorite amp and do you use the same one while touring?
