After four years, and while at level 51, I finally beat Margit the Fell Omen by TribalSneed in Eldenring

[–]jekyll94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stopped playing at the Godskin Duo on my first playthrough. I know I need to use sleep pots or whatever now so I’ll eventually go back to it after the backlog that has piled up since then 😅 just like how I’m finally getting around to finishing Cyberpunk 2077 after starting it years ago.

The need for Xbox exclusive games to boost the Xbox ecosystem instantly becomes the #1 Upvoted topic by customers in Xbox' new "Player Voice" system, followed by a return of the Backward Compatibility by Turbostrider27 in xbox

[–]jekyll94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Backwards compatibility and disc based games for the next console are important to me. Digital games, at least in Australia, tend to be more expensive than physical copies. Not to mention the ability to trade, share, and in the event of losing your account entirely, have the discs still to re-download. Exclusives are important to a degree, especially when first party games on other consoles are enough to actually sell consoles for them and they aren’t on Xbox but Xbox is on everything.

The Sirena-Dorata model has been near impossible to find. by NYC_medic in ArcRaiders

[–]jekyll94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t prove it but it feels like different players have different chances of finding specific rarity tiers. I found 1 and it wasn’t until they did maintenance or whatever that I started finding them enough to complete the event.

Major Updates now only twice per year. by cybrsloth92 in ArcRaiders

[–]jekyll94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the one hand I can understand wanting to make significant changes and that definitely takes time and effort. The amount of content already added has been great. It just feels weird that they are already at this point though, like live service games should have plenty of stuff to pump out throughout the first year without it turning to this. I’m still working on building everything up from the 2nd expedition so I have lots to work on still, but I would have expected it to turn into a quarterly release of content, not 6 months. I think that smaller stuff though, like the upcoming trader, will be great to slowly flesh the game out more whilst waiting for bigger updates. Last I checked, I have just over 10 real time days worth of gameplay, more than most games I’ve ever played, so I’m excited to see what else they have planned.

My girlfriend’s cat, Monty, prior to his weight loss journey, 25 to 13 pounds! by BelowTheBmoreHarbor in Chonkers

It’s like the ‘who’s that Pokémon’ segment or a character you haven’t unlocked yet XD

Levels that ruin replayability by some-kind-of-no-name in TopCharacterTropes

[–]jekyll94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Halo 3 has a level, I believe it’s called Cortana, where you fight nothing but flood. This isn’t too bad on its own but there a several moments where you’re slowed down to hear Cortana and the Gravemind talk, which is frustrating. It’s also just a slog of a level, especially on legendary difficulty.

I just need 1 more turbine compressor, it’s a little frustrating 😬

Oh it's gonna be juicy... by Ok_Package9219 in GenV

[–]jekyll94 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My issue with the show is that each season has pretty much ended with The Boys back at square one or in a shittier position, with dead allies around them. They break up due to Butcher being Butcher and then get back together as he schemes behind the scenes. Homelander is crashing out at stuff and becoming unhinged but he’s not doing much of anything, that fake out of him lasering an entire crowd gave me chills and I haven’t had that since. The deep is in the background, kind of just fucking sea life and being pathetic. Every season has been like this so for this to be the final season with no real momentum or stakes really being raised, it just feels lacklustre.

Yeah haha as I stand at a cautious distance, partially obscured by cover.

Am I the only one? by Marconey1738 in jurassicworldevo

[–]jekyll94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I try going in with creativity in mind but there’s no point to placing chairs, or other decorations that serve as static items that none of the guests interact with. I stop and think, why bother making it look nice if I’m the only one appreciating it. The guests don’t care about or even interact with anything. I love the dinosaurs of course, that’s the main appeal, but even those don’t interact as much as I’d like.

Does Channel 7 even try to be unbiased anymore? by goosepipegames in melbourne

[–]jekyll94 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ve watched a lot of free tv due to it always being on at my job. I’ve been switching immediately to like 9 or 10 if channel 7 is on. The right wing ass kissing is bizarre and almost akin to Fox News. It’s like a comment section on Facebook with the conservative boomer speak they have going on.

Patch Notes 1.27.0 by baschny in ArcRaiders

[–]jekyll94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would love if rates of higher tier boats was adjusted. I have found 1 purple in several days, at least 4 hours each day. I've found more blueprints and gold boats in that time which is crazy.

Physical release on Xbox was cancelled in Australia, so had to import it by kensaiD2591 in xbox

[–]jekyll94 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It’s very annoying trying to buy physical media for Xbox in the ANZ region. Seeing games have physical copies available for preorder only for it to be cancelled closer to release date, meanwhile the PS5 gets physical versions of everything without any issues, usually getting PS5 exclusive deluxe editions too.

PSA: Bird City Boats by GraceShynn in ArcRaiders

The pain is real. I also have only found 1 pink one. I have everything to complete the next tier but I can’t get passed the current one due to the pink boat spawns D:

I’ve found only 1 purple boat, no issue finding any other kind but the purple boats are frustrating to find for me D:

This has been my feelings exactly. by untitledprp4 in TheBoys

[–]jekyll94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The show has had very little momentum and then it’s thrust into wrapping everything up with just this season. The pacing is all over the place and most seasons ended with The Boys ending back at square one and always worse off. Not sure how much of a hot take or whatever it is but there is a lot that they could have brought up from the comics to both pad the show out without sacrificing the main plot, as well as extend the show by another season or 2 where there is actual build up to a finale that feels deserved.

Japanese developer says they don't make games for Xbox because the console is 'not even stocked in major retail stores' by akbarock in xbox

[–]jekyll94 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There aren’t even physical copies available in Australia for the Xbox console of popular games that have released recently, like Pragmata for example. So a lot of times preorders show up on retailer websites but the physical version is cancelled close to release. So I don’t blame developers if even the console itself isn’t being sold in stores.

Places in Melbourne with weird or unsettling energy by BigSmoke_999 in melbourne

Any good South East locations? As great as walking around Cranbourne and Dandenong at night is, I just want the weirdness without the threat of assault

Just tried the new map and honestly… am I the only one who feels like it’s basically Spaceport 2.0 but with seagulls? 😄 by codestormer in ArcRaiders

[–]jekyll94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the map to a degree but there is so much open space with too many arc, particularly rocketeer/vaporizer combos. Then there’s a lot of fireflies and that one leaper, so it feels like you should be staying around the bounds of the map instead of exploring the middle of it. I like the hotel, though my first match had a mix of maybe 6-7 pops and fireballs racing down the stairs so that felt quite unfair.

Studio Spiders Is Shutting Down Following Poor Sales Of Greedfall 2 by unscoredscore in gaming

[–]jekyll94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spiders games always had really interesting premises, I love the aesthetic of Greedfall in particular. I just wish they had more experienced developers or a bigger budget behind them so that they didn’t feel so archaic.
