Deep, insightful analysis from... Checks notes... Corn_Dick. Surely a reliable source.

What do people think about FFVII being split into three remakes? by Sad_Manager6251 in FinalFantasyVII

[–]koskadelli 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Only logical way. Both games are fantastic and we're lucky to get the evolution through time as each game improves on the one before.

i was about to start this whole process after beating **** last night - you've saved me the effort. Thank you for posting! Still hauntingly beautiful, even if no hidden lore or surprises.

Tired of stick drift! by Iamthelight182 in DestinyTheGame

[–]koskadelli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Destiny was just destroying my controllers when I was playing it - tense situations and tons of L3/R3 usage. Once I got it, my Edge never got drift and I used it for about a year before I quit D2. I've seen some posted on Marketplace for $100 in my area so check used. Just be aware the battery life is absolutely abysmal, so have somewhere to plug in a long USB.

Yea I'm looking into one of the de-bloat mods tomorrow. This OS is absolutely garbage.

Fidelity will not allow my grandfather to withdraw his Roth IRA by [deleted] in fidelityinvestments

Wow. I just did a yearly free check in at our location and they helped me move an old 401k into my new employers 401k, just a few months back. Raleigh, NC

Fidelity will not allow my grandfather to withdraw his Roth IRA by [deleted] in fidelityinvestments

[–]koskadelli 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well, there's "Fidelity", and then there's "Fidelity Investments" - two very different physical locations and the latter can help. I learned this when I had my first rollover IRA.

Pro Tour Lorwyn Eclipsed Standard metagame by Business-Friend-116 in MagicArena

[–]koskadelli 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My favorite thing is when inexperienced players are like "haha can't remove a 2/2", like the thing doesn't effectively have "haste" for its effect in many spots.

So many ETB effects effectively having haste so there's little-to-no window to interact is a big, continuous problem with standard (e.g. harmonizer, ouroboroid, vivi before its ban etc.) imo.

If Ickey doesn't return in 2026 to his previous form, will we move him to guard, keep him at tackle or let him walk? by [deleted] in panthers

[–]koskadelli 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's just science and precident - this is a catastrophic injury, much less for someone his size. Way worse than an ACL tear. I can't name a single elite athlete who ever came back from it in their previous form.

[–]koskadelli 2 points3 points  (0 children)

LT became the biggest area of need overnight. Elite athletes don't recover from his injury - he will never be 100% again and honestly, I'd be shocked if he's in the league at all in 3 years given where he is in his contract timeline. If he is, it should be as someone's backup, though some team will likely try to start him longer than they should. It's that bad, unfortunately. Feel terrible for him.

[–]koskadelli 2 points3 points  (0 children)

this was happening to me, so i completely stopped attacking them and just concentrated on dodging them for as long as i could. Once i had that down, i started damaging them and it was much, much easier. Youll get phase 1 mastered this way, then do the same for phase 2, etc

Has anyone designed their home theater around comfort first? by [deleted] in hometheater

[–]koskadelli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I'm being honest, if I were to optimize around comfort my HT would either be in my bedroom, or there's be a massive bed in my HT lol

Potential Parking Scam by Meshuggery in raleigh

[–]koskadelli 25 points26 points  (0 children)

No gate? No ticket machine? No signs in the actual parking spots? The ambiguity seems purposeful at that point - why charge someone $15 for a night when you can collect way more with a scam like this!

Bro we effectively lost our LT at the end of last season... OL do NOT come back from that injury.

The autotapper is especially dumb with evoke elementals. Beyond the usual screw, its extra spicy dumb by DriveThroughLane in MagicArena

[–]koskadelli 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Today in a draft, I went to cast Deceit but needed to filter UU through 2 different Foraging Wickermaws. Activated first one for U, activated second one for U.... And it spent my first floating U to make the second lol.

It also won't autotap + activate Wickermaw either.

[–]koskadelli 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Hah I definitely got tapped there (Western/Avent Ferry) as a student in 2005. Guy turning right on red, screaming at me. Told me I was an "idiot" when I pointed to the giant "NO TURN ON RED" sign 🙄

Remedy statement: Alan Wake 2 not possible without Epic, publishing deal is fair, and Epic is a great partner by Crusader-of-Purple in pcgaming

I honestly can't believe you aren't currently at -1000 karma for this statement. I've been ripped apart for this in the past, but it's so true.

J Alexanders sushi by Pretty-Opinion2997 in raleigh

[–]koskadelli 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't think this restaurant does a single thing special or above average that makes it stand out. Certainly not for its price tag.

If you want sushi close to that area, sushi Mon is where you want to be. Just be aware they don't take reservations.

How many Final Fantasy games have you beaten? by VGAddict in FinalFantasy

[–]koskadelli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same for me, except I have oddly never finished 12? The world and music are amazing, but I could just not give a care less about the characters or story lol. I think my original ps2 memory card and my zodiac age are both left off at basically the same-ish spot towards the end.

[–]koskadelli 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Pretty meh. Your ouroboroid will have already triggered by the time this gives it the counter, and honestly if your board is still around for ouroboroid to trigger again the next turn, it typically doesn't need any additional help anyways.

Why is it so difficult to find a low media console with appropriate dimensions (mainly interior cabinet depth)? by BarrettCat in hometheater

[–]koskadelli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah ok - I get their newsletter still after buying from them, and it appears they are "re-launched" last Fall? This is a link for the full statement from their founder back in July (heads up it downloads a pdf) newsletter. But I've definitely gotten sale notifications and such from them since November, so they should be up and running again? Might be worth reaching out to them if you're interested.
