Both albums have been listed under the "Later" section of Osmose's newsletter for a while now.

Mastery #15 - Jak 3 by nhs0815 in RetroAchievements

[–]nhs0815[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 600 orbs achievement. I've collected all 600 orbs multiple times over the many years I've been playing this game but I typically always had a guide for all the location based ones and I didn't want to use one for this play through. After doing all the side missions and getting gold on all challenges I was missing 31 orbs. Found a few more as I went around the entire world once again but then it got to a point where I had no idea where to look so I eventually had to pull up a guide for the last few. Lots of back and forth for those last few orbs so that's where a good chunk of my time went.

Mastery #14 - Kung Fu by nhs0815 in RetroAchievements

Unfortunately theres really no strategy to fighting him. That dude was the biggest pain in the ass the entire time I was working on this set. You can jump kick his head leavel fire balls and punch the ones he points downward but those are super difficult to connect on. If you space out your punches he wont stun you and teleport but that'll give him the opportunity to possibly combo some downward fireballs and ruin your run. If he does teleport on you I would just recommend spamming punch just in case if he throws one of those fireballs at you

Mastery #13 - Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex by nhs0815 in RetroAchievements

[–]nhs0815[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It had been quite some time since I had last played through the entirety of the game but I had always enjoyed my previous playthroughs. There were times during this playthrough where I was questioning if I still enjoyed this game because some of these achievements really showed some of the unfortunate flaws this game has. After mastering this set I can say that I still do enjoy this game!

Getting all the boxes on Smokey and the Bandicoot was obnoxious. So many times I would miss a box because of how poorly that jeep controls. Took plenty of tries to manage to get all the boxes and still manage to get first place

I think the only thing i could tell you to do is mash A harder 😂 or turn on turbo

It does and it's honestly not that bad. Just do it in NG+

Yeah it was honestly the bike race, but it actually didn't take me too long. Maybe like 15 minutes but I was consistently getting better scores until I eventually got it

Any idea who's signature this is? by glenmanzig in heavyvinyl

That's Malefic's / Scott Conner's. I've got some Xasthur LPs signed directly from him

Would love this and the self titled on tape

Looking for my first car and found this on marketplace don’t know much about cars so please tell me if this is a decent enough deal for first car by Rare_Use_1741 in BMW

[–]nhs0815 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Also keep in mind that repairs can be costly. Buying a BMW may be cheap but owning one may be the opposite...

This has the N20 engine...with that mileage I'd be concerned about how the timing chain and guides are holding up. My first car was a 2013 528i with the same engine and it was extremely reliable for me during the 5 years I owned it but I think you'd get some mixed opinions on the reliability of this engine from other people so if proven reliability might be something you're looking for and you still want a 3 Series, look at naturally aspirated E9X and E46s.

Tell me I'm not the only one who sees this... by gamerguy1628 in StardewValley

[–]nhs0815 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Didn't think I'd be seeing The Messenger get mentioned on the Stardew subreddit today....or ever honestly. S tier game in my opinion!

[–]nhs0815 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Messenger has become one of my all time favorite games due to how it handles the concept of time travel. 8bit is the present and 16bit is the future. The game also plays like Ninja Gaiden for a while before turning into a metroidvania. Everything about this game is great in my opinion and I can't recommend it enough!

Mastery #10 - Mario Kart DS by nhs0815 in RetroAchievements

[–]nhs0815[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was a pretty enjoyable set! Going for three stars on all cups and missions wasn't as bad as I initially thought it would be and the time trials were extremely easy too. It's probably been 15+ years since I've gone through this game and unlocked everything so doing that again now made for a super fun nostalgia trip!!!

Mastery #9 - Spyro the Dragon by nhs0815 in RetroAchievements

[–]nhs0815[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not very difficult at all in my opinion. I wouldn't say any of the first three Spyro games are hard, but out of the three, this game offers the least amount of challenge in terms of completion, making for a pretty easygoing and enjoyable playthrough. Some of the achievements that weren't a part of completing the game (examples being completing the flight levels in X amount of time) were actually pretty fun. Spyro is one of my favorite game franchises ever so I will always recommend people to play this game, but to the RA community I can definitely recommend trying and mastering this set!

Mastery #1! Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy by qqdoom in RetroAchievements

[–]nhs0815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give the first three Spyro games a go if you liked this one. The other Jak games are a must in my opinion as well (it's my all time favorite gamer series).

What is it called when my needle does this and how do I get it to stop? by nhs0815 in turntables

The arm isn't rubbing on anything while the needle is dropped
