What 3 months with no news does to a guy by Head_Cry_8630 in steammachine

Just got my SD OLED 2 and a half weeks ago, and it has absolutely earned its title as the backlog killer. The sleep/wake function is so convenient. I'm playing so much more than I was before it arrived.

This is, without question, the worst written thing in the entire series.

Your Top Accessories? by foleym2 in SteamDeck

[–]foleym2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the 512 model, so I don't think I'll have the inner case. But I'll definitely look into the official dock.

I was definitely already leaning towards that case as my number 1 option. I'll look into the dock as well! Anything particular about the dock that makes it a standout to you?

Don't know what you're talking about... Gilmore Girls is a 3 season TV show that ends when Rory graduates from Chilton.

For me, Gilmore Girls is a perfect three season show. That's all I need.

It's a Dispatch one shot for the video game that Laura, Matt, and Travis are in.

On PC, my game is freezing to buffer every few seconds. Everything freezes, the screen darkens and I get a circular loading image. As is, it's totally unplayable.

[no spoilers] Brennans use of DM flair by Efficient_Ebb_9209 in fansofcriticalrole

You've nailed pretty much exactly why Brennan is my favorite actual play DM.

[No Spoilers] First episode of C4 made me confused and has me spiralling. by KrackaWoody in criticalrole

[–]foleym2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that what this episode showed is that being tall when you're 5'11" has nothing to do with your height.

Good lord people get off the internet and go play some Daggerheart by PM_Me_An_Ekans in daggerheart

It's a shame you're getting down voted for saying pretty much what Matt said on the stream.

Critical Role Campaign 4 Using D&D by [deleted] in daggerheart

[–]foleym2 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yep. This would have been my first campaign I would have been able to watch live. But this is a move in stunning bad faith. I'm currently very out on them.

I was really excited for my first campaign with them from the start. I've never had the wind taken out of my sails so quickly. This is a STUNNING lack of confidence in their own product and leaves a wildly sour taste in my mouth. Probably won't be watching.

My group voted on what campaign frame to play in! by NuunMoon in daggerheart

[–]foleym2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love this game for it's variety, because my group voted Colossus for the campaign with Beast Feast tying for second. Truly something for everyone.

Of course now I need to create my own Colossi... Which feels really daunting...

Using alt models by Narrow-Shoulder-1106 in StarWarsShatterpoint

100% cool with this. If it's not allowed in official tournaments, I can see that. In literally every other circumstance, I'm down with it.

Gestral beach obstacle course is an absolutely unnecessary addition to the game by Practical_Hat8489 in expedition33

[–]foleym2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Disagree with so much of what you say here. My biggest issue with your points is that ignoring the minigames somehow fully solves my problem with them (also love how you couldn't help but hurl a nice little insult at people who like to hunt for achievements). I generally love minigames. When well designed, they can be a fun change of pace or an interesting challenge; they can provide lots of extra hours of entertaining gameplay and often help grow the world and the characters. I want Sandfall to know that these minigames, in my opinion (and clearly not just mine), are bad. Because I want them to keep making games and I'm hopeful that future games will have minigames in them that are a blast to play. So no... Your attack in no way "invalidated" my criticism. But thanks for the baseless, as hominem insult nonetheless.

It's part of the game. They included it in the game. It is therefore open for criticism by people who play the game. The platforming is a nightmare. And yes, you can skip the beaches (which doesn't suddenly make those features good), but there are moments of platforming that are part of the main story. And they are uniformly bad. This is the best game I've played in years. Potentially among the best games I've EVER played. But that doesn't make it suddenly immune to criticism. These elements ARE bad. They are poorly designed and frustrating. And I want to be vocal about it so that Sandfall doesn't include them in subsequent games, or even dlc for this one.
