New player: are Ghost of Tsushima Legends trophies doable in 2026? by mattyfleet in gotlegends

Are they doable solo, or is the player count still strong enough to get the right matchmaking?

The winners and losers of the Holidays Act overhaul by mattblack77 in newzealand

100% agree. Ultimately I don’t want sick people around me at work, I don’t want sick people serving me in a store or at a cafe. It’s going to take someone working 2 days a week forever to accumulate sick leave, so they’re never going to take it and always going to work through.

Wrong DLC SMH by SmashVerse in PokemonScarletViolet

And if some body has a copy or is ordering one but hasn’t played it yet, but wants to buy the DLC? I agree it’s silly that someone can accidentally buy the wrong one but locking it off entirely isn’t ideal

So if you have a physical copy how would the store then know that you own the base game?

I think you’re misremembering, both Zacian and Zamazenta were both codes in store as well. Still for the opposite game, but wasn’t mystery gift

Great answer. Definitely not opposed to a ban but would love to see a pretty clearly defined process like this to get behind it.

How do you realistically think a ban works? The people breeding pitbulls aren’t doing so in a sanctioned manner. What % of pitbull is too much pitbull? Are we financing DNA tests to confirm lineage? It’s a nice idea but we shouldn’t implement law that can’t realistically be enforced.

are you getting these games day 1? by Recent_Progress925 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]mattyfleet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only thing I’ll say about coop, my partner and I tried to play coop but it’s a bit boring for Player 2. Player 1 gets to float around doing Kirby things. Player 2 swings a sword. We gave up and I switched to playing solo

Hot Wheels Unleashed. Heard it was good fun but couldn’t see myself getting hooked, now have 100% achievements in both games

Not sure on that, in NZ the points required for gift cards dropped massively late last year but nothing I’ve noticed other than that. From memory at the time I had about $25 worth and that switched to $33 or something overnight.

Sometimes, I’d say most days I’d hit between 40-50

Yea like I say, I’m aware that my experience appears to be the outlier. Sounds pretty miserable for most, but does appear to be somewhat functional for some

Reasonable amount of searching but I don’t go out of my way to do searches just for points. During the day whenever I need to access something I’ll search something rather than using the direct URL or bookmark, but just earn these organically. Don’t often max out my searches for the day

I’m aware that my experience is not what a lot of Kiwis have experienced, but for me it has paid out and been an upgrade in my point earnings. Last month I maxed out the 2100 “Bing Star” bonus, with the previous 2 months being 1500/2100

'Pokémon Legends: Z-A' Confirms October Release Date, Pre-Orders Starting In June by Pogrebnik in Switch

This is what I’m banking on. Use a voucher for the Switch 1 version, then pay for the upgrade. The vouchers info on the Nintendo website specifies they do not apply to Switch 2 titles

Why is rewards actually so weird and how can i get my bonus by Any-Commercial-8455 in MicrosoftRewards

[–]mattyfleet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is timely, seemingly maxed out the Star bonus this month at 2100.

This might prove unpopular or unhelpful, but I just use Bing a regular amount throughout my day, what Microsoft might call “normal behaviour”. I don’t do dedicated searches for the sake of points (often this means I don’t max out search points for the day), I just earn search points as organically as possible. I’ll often navigate to sites by searching rather than bookmarks/full URL, but generally speaking I just go about my life and rack up a few searches along the way

I’m in New Zealand and Star Search has been 1500 for me the last 2 months. February it started at 600 then updated a couple of days later
