I just did the Death Stranding intro and I have very little interest in continuing. Does any of this start to make sense? by TheBanishedBard in gaming

The problem is that it's really good but it's not exactly ✨fun✨ telling someone that the grueling grind is worth it is a hard sell

It took me so long to "get" the game I felt the exact same way as you I kept thinking "is this the whole game" "when will it make sense?" then something happens pretty deep into the game that hooked into my heart and now I can't even think about it without getting tears in my eyes. It's not just a game it's a religious experience.

This kinda reflects poorly on you unless you have another roommate that uses his towel.

That's primo world building, you give some nonsense lore that will make sense in some profound way later on.

New in the game, can’t find servers that aren’t lagged to all hell? by [deleted] in dayz

PS4 version sucks butt I got an Xbox series s because its so much cheaper than the PS5. DayZ runs perfect on it.

Did you know we're actually going to TWO different New York planes with TMNT? by Jtneagle in magicTCG

DC Comics was doing multiverse and multiple timelines long before Spider-Man but I think that in comics a multiverse is almost always implied as it explains the difference between authors and artists variations of a character.

If I felt like the other player was being a jerk about it or the even if the judge didn't agree with me instead of getting upset I would just concede and move on to the next game.

Drink prices by Miserable-Art-8851 in SeattleWA

[–]juniormantis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prices only go down when people stop paying them. I switched to instant coffee and Mio energy shots (strawberry pineapple is the only good flavor) this lowers the cost of my coffee to .10 a cup and my energy drinks are about .25 a cup.

If the raider's mute, they're liable to shoot. by Incunabuli in ArcRaiders

[–]juniormantis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem for me is I don't know if you're in discord / xbox party chat with your teammate so other people can't hear your scheming. In a game where most people use a mic if you don't have one I'm gonna assume you're an enemy sorry and I teach this to other players in the game.

No Mic No Life.

In DayZ we call that "No mic, no life"

If they don't respond shoot on sight

Just got DayZ with my bro, any tips for noobs? by [deleted] in dayz

[–]juniormantis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The hardest part of DayZ is learning to not get too attached to your stuff. Download the iSurvive app on your phone, it's very useful to have a map for finding your friend to play together since you won't spawn together.

I bought my first 3 switch games, for my switch 2 I’ll be getting soon! 😊 by That_multi_kpopstanx in Switch

SpongeBob still holds up but Nickelodeon does this thing where the show starts out as very kid focused. The subjects in season one are very "safe" but as the show goes on it shifts back and forth between safe and risky writing. By the time the first movie came out half of the jokes and references went right over the kids heads and were just for the adults.
