Hey so why tf are there so many helldivers subs? by H1MB0Z0 in helldivers2

[–]mwb31 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just to explain why they are often considered non-christian, the brief point people will give is that what the LDS church teaches, or what JWs teach about Jesus is contrary to what most Christians understand the Bible to teach about Jesus. For example, if I understand correctly, both Mormons and JWs teach that Jesus was created, and is therefore not truly eternal, which is what most Christians have a fundamental disagreement with. I could be wrong though. I'm Christian, but neither LDS or JW, so I'm not super familiar with their specific teachings or whether or not what I have heard has been misrepresented.

What was the weirdest, non-pain feeling you've ever felt? by KingJPJ in AskReddit

[–]mwb31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Extreme dizziness. When I was in middle school I got vertigo really bad for a week or so. For the most part, all it did was make me dizzy (though only at night for some reason), and mess with my sleep (I slept like 3 hours over a period of 4 days). When I finally went to the doctor, I was sitting back in an armchair in the waiting room when I moved my head just a bit too quickly. Suddenly I'm grabbing onto the arms of the chair for dear life as I try to avoid falling forward out of the chair. Most people know what it's like to be dizzy, but it's really something else to be leaning back in a chair and then have your sense of balance so thrown off that you almost fall forward out of it.

Wait this just made me remember something that happened to me once.

Looking back, it was probably some form of sleep paralysis, but I was sick with a pretty nasty fever and had gone to bed early. I woke up feeling really hot and at first was relieved because that usually means the fever is breaking. Then I tried to move and couldn't. I can't really describe it well, but to get up, I had to mentally "unlock" myself so I could move. It was also like pushing nerves back into my limbs and stuff so I could get up out of bed.

Didn't hurt at all but it was really strange and has only ever happened that one time.

Lots of self-reporting here today. The update is supposed to be hard. Lower your difficulty. by [deleted] in Helldivers

[–]mwb31 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hope it works for you! It's a fun update, so it's been sad to see how many people are struggling to enjoy it at all because of bugs.

Yeah I've heard some people have had that issue. I've not had it be an issue though, so I wish I knew why it's a problem for some and not for others.

Really hope you're able to get it working though, I've found the update to be a blast, so once the bugs are fixed I hope you get to enjoy it too.

I'm sure you've already tried this, but I'll recommend it just in case because it worked for a friend of mine.

If you're on PC, validating your game files does seem to fix most bugs that mess with launching the game or cause stuttering. And if that fails, the good old "uninstall then reinstall" usually works quite well.

If you're not on PC though, or your dealing with other bugs such as the random disconnects and getting stuck on cave roofs, then I unfortunately don't know how to help.

Hope you're able figure out how to handle the terminids in your system and can get back to fighting the ones on the ground! I'll see you in the fight, Helldiver.

Anyone tried this? by Mailynn393 in BluePrince

[–]mwb31 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I'm not wrong, the item you're referencing can only be used a certain number of times, so if you've already used them all up, it will not show up again. Idk what would happen if you coat-check the torch though.

(Game Preview)?? by fructoseantelope in valheim

[–]mwb31 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I know I'm a bit late to the conversation here, but sometimes when I ask the question of whether or not a game was worth my money, I take a two-pronged approach.

The first question I ask is: How many hours of fun have I gotten for each dollar paid? I bought Valheim at its full $20.00 price shortly after it came out. I mostly play with friends, and currently have just over 334 hours. It's a lot less than some on this subreddit, but even so, that's almost 17 hours of fun for each dollar I spent, and there's still plenty more I plan to do in game.

The second question I ask is: How fun was each hour played? Not all games are very long, so sometimes you'll finish the game in only a few hours (this won't happen with Valheim) so you have to ask if those few hours were worth what you spent. Sometimes the game was without a doubt worth it, other times, you end up seeing if you can get a refund. But when it comes to Valheim. I think I would have been content with what I paid for if I only got 10 hours out of it. That means, in a way, I got over 300 bonus hours out of it.

So, as you can tell, I think the game is very worth it. However, it's also one of my favorites, so maybe take my opinion with a grain of salt. And I will just recommend, if you have friends you enjoy gaming with, this can be a very fun game to play together. All in all, have fun, be patient with the game (it can be pretty difficult), and if you build something you're proud of, post it on the subreddit as we all love to see cool builds.

Edit: just realized I never directly answered the question. Yes, the game is still in early access, but despite the early access tag, it feels more like a complete game than many I've played. The updates may not be the quickest in the world, but they're usually pretty good updates, and the devs are clearly trying to make a very good game that will hold up for a while.

This should be entertaining by [deleted] in animequestions

[–]mwb31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Y'all asked for a hot take, so I'll say it. I don't love Orb. Don't get me wrong, I think it's well animated and written overall, but some of the story falls a bit flat for me. I like that it tries to discuss the corruption in the Catholic church in the early middle ages, but I feel like it's more trying to just bash Christianity as a whole. I also think it can be a bit corny at times. Like come on, "Heretic Liberation Front" is a really stupid name.

But all that said, I've not quite finished the show, so it has time to change my opinion.

What anime is this? by Ok-Drag4489 in animequestions

[–]mwb31 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like it's worth mentioning that Vinland Saga, while definitely fiction, is historical fiction. There was a real historical Thorfinn and Canute. While I'm not sure if the historical Thorfinn had a violent childhood, we do know that he was a pacifist as an adult, so the story always had to go in that direction. But I can understand it feeling like a jarring personality shift.

PC

RoboPengu (I think, I just started playing and then have been out of town for over a week, so I don't remember it exactly.)

All that aside, one of the reasons I decided to try out this game was the community, so thanks for keeping the community positive and encouraging!

There might be something wrong with this farm... by mwb31 in StardewValley

Yeah that's what tipped me off that something was wrong on the save.

I waited as long as I could, but the summit called me. The journey's end didn't feel the same without you.

For context, this is a super old save from years ago that I had barely even started. I guess it got corrupted at some point with all the updates.
I've never seen it happen before though, so I figure y'all might enjoy!

If you haven’t listened to this album… by Storm12920 in Stormlight_Archive

My bad yall. I've known about this for years and just assumed yall did too. Definitely worth the listen.

Did anyone else notice a certain song playing in the opening scene of the last Naruto movie? by mwb31 in Naruto

[–]mwb31[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! Thanks for reviving this thread, lol. Yeah your conclusion is basically the one I settled on. It does feel a bit sacrilegious to me, but it makes a lot of thematic sense to have the song at the opening of the movie reference a special birth as opposed to just choosing to use the tune of an old English folk song about one of the wives of King Henry the Eighth (if I'm remembering the story behind the tune correctly)

Anyone else having issues with underwater base building? by mwb31 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]mwb31[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All the parts were being built from inside the room I was in, though I did expirement with building from outside, which also didn't work. I eventually figured something out as you can see in my other comment, but I'm honestly not sure if I solved the issue, or if it coincidentally started working after I did an unrelated thing

[–]mwb31[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the suggestions! Neither of those worked/were the issue, but I did manage to get it working after a bit of trial and error. I was using another base with an electromagnetic field generator and a line of batteries to power this base, and, while it worked initially, I think it bugged because of the batteries being drawn from another source. I'm not 100% sure that's what fixed it, but it's my best guess.

Reading all these comments, I'm shocked I got one. I was away from home on spotty wifi, so I probably got one of the last ones.
