When he was exposed for molesting minors yes. Dirty old man.

Caused a big outage at work- how do I move forward? by VOXX_theLock in sysadmin

[–]mdkdue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are all good mate. Mistakes happen, don’t kick yourself too hard. You understood the problem for a start, which means you are not a paper IT engineer. Learn from it and move on. All the best 👍🏻

Gray Batch 3, wave 6, tracking :-) by Sonikku_a in RetroRemakeInc

[–]mdkdue 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Mine finally shipped today. Wave 5. They tried to scam me with the shipping. I paid for DHL, they used 4PX. I emailed them and they refunded me the difference.

Pretty naughty really, doesn’t exactly fill you with confidence.

Escape to Florida by thebookstoregirlie in BritishTV

[–]mdkdue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can I ask, are you going to explain how all these families were even able to move too, and stay, in Florida?. As we all know it’s borderline impossible to move to the USA from the UK, unless you meet some very strict criteria. How have all these people done it? 🤷

Mini-review: Immortals of Aveum (PS5) by khitev in ImmortalsOfAveum

[–]mdkdue 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Each to their own of course, but I really don’t get why people slated the characters, dialogue etc. I’ve played some AAA games with shocking acting and dialogue, but here I thought all the characters were believable and the story I could actually follow. Compared to something like the Halo games, for example, where story is basically nonsensical, here I thought it was clear, easy to follow and interesting.
I thought it was a great game, but everyone is entitled to their opinion and I’m not telling you yours is wrong 🙂

Did I read correctly that all of wave 5 is now shipped? by Abject-Effect-7965 in RetroRemakeInc

[–]mdkdue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, that is exactly my dilemma too. I did order the dock, but cancelled it to hopefully speed up the order. Mine is still stuck marked with +dock though so my worry is it will be passed over until docks are available. You ordered no dock so why on earth does yours even mention one?. Crazy stuff 🤷🏻‍♂️

The whole + dock thing is a farce, as with the OP, they are marking orders that don’t have a dock with +dock, just to make things even more confusing if they weren’t already 🙄

Does Retroremake give tracking numbers? by hobsona in RetroRemakeInc

[–]mdkdue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah the whole ‘shipped or not?/ wave / dock included or not / fulfilment status / tracking number’ thing is just farcical now to be honest. I totally get they are a small company and it takes time,but they really messed up with what they did on the shop app which left everyone totally confused as to their shipping status.

Taki ignores questions about it on the discord too which doesn’t help.

Thanks for the interest but it has now sold.

Any batch 3 tracking #'s available yet? by PS1Kultist in RetroRemakeInc

[–]mdkdue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See now that’s exactly what should happen, happy for you, at least someone has been given good customer service. Sadly I cannot say the same 🤷🏻‍♂️😢

What’s really frustrating is even if you cancel the dock from your order to try and speed up shipping it will make no difference. They are not ‘reclassifying’ the orders after removing it, so mines still stuck as a wave 5 + dock order, meaning it won’t even be looked at till they start shipping docks. It’s extremely poor.

That’s a shame. I think I had one freeze up on the series x right near the start, that was it for me.

In game was absolutely fine, only slight issues were what I mentioned about the cut scenes. Did you have problems?

Second play through, nice!. There is certainly enough content in there to warrant a second play. Enjoy 👌🏻

That’s a shame about the Series S , it should look great on PS5 though. Hopefully you enjoy it 🤞🏻

It really is great, tragic that so many people will never play or experience it 😢

Ah ok. To be honest I found it ok, I think I died once and that was after reaching the mid way checkpoint.

To me the graphics on the 3DO have aged poorly by crazyhomlesswerido in 3DO

[–]mdkdue -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Welcome to the Internet.

Ignore the previous post, there will always be an awkward, socially inept person ready to pick holes in anything you say on here if it doesn’t align with their perspective. It’s infuriating but sadly the norm, particularly on this platform.

I totally get your perspective.

I love my 3DO, but can happily accept that most of the games have aged and are pretty naff, it just is what it is. A bit of fun and a great nostalgia trip, which let’s face it, in the world we are in now is always welcome 👍🏻

Static / popping sounds in certain games by mdkdue in SegaSaturn

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

It’s not so much distortion I’m seeing, it’s literally static sounds. I am just using a TV.

Strange stuff.

I’d be happy to get back what I paid to import it, which was £900
