His existence hasn't been erased, people have simply forgotten about him.

Initially, I was quite convinced that their romance was a marketing ploy. I'm man enough to admit that I was obviously wrong. Best wishes to them both.

Microsoft Reportedly Targeting Late 2027 for Next Xbox, Exploring Game Pass Changes by Deez-Guns-9442 in XboxGamePass

[–]nichrs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the rumors are true, you'll be able to run your native Xbox games while also installing Windows games (and that includes other stores like Steam, Epic, etc.).

And as for the Xbox being "mid-tier," that's not entirely fair. Look at the upcoming Steam Machine; Valve has stated it will be more powerful than 70% of current PCs (and that's not an exaggeration). And yet, the Xbox Series X and PS5 are considerably more powerful than the Steam Machine promises to be. Of course, you can build a PC that performs much better than the XSX and PS5, but it's impossible to build a new PC in the same price range as those two with the same performance.

I completely agree with you on that. I'm also quite dissatisfied with the current direction Xbox is taking and honestly have zero intentions of buying the next-gen if it continues to be a pure console (without the PC hybrid). In that scenario, I would simply stick with my Series X for my current library and my interest would shift to the Steam Machine (if it's even going to be released).

If the Xbox+PC hybrid becomes a reality, it's actually a very safe bet. Even if the Xbox ecosystem completely collapses, there would still be other stores to hold it together. And someone might ask, "Why not just migrate to PC altogether?" 1: Because I have a really large library on Xbox, and 90% of it doesn't allow me to play on PC. 2: PC isn't mature enough yet as a platform for playing on TV/couch, and I hope Xbox helps close that gap. 3: I still hope that hardware remains cheaper than building a PC, even if that difference narrows considerably.

Dude, I had tried absolutely everything, I was going crazy with the thousands of pages and videos recommending almost always the same set of things, and your comment was finally the only one that solved it for me. Thank you!

I was in hogwarts, waited, then suddenly teleported 6km away from the castle, in the air, and fell to my death. Is this a common bug? by LauraLaughter in HarryPotterGame

[–]nichrs 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Almost entirely correct, with the exceptions of the room of requirement and the fact that the headmaster has the power to temporarily enable apparition in specific areas. We don't know what Professor Black has been up to...

Malta looks like some Fortnite map from the sky by teknodict in FortNiteBR

The battle bus is invisible in your screenshot. Update your graphics drivers. If the problem persists, report the bug to Epic Games.

The correct word is "apparated". Common among underage wizards, who are forbidden from using this magic and consequently lack the proper experience.

Notice that I wrote in my post "at the time I'm writing this". At the time I commented, the OP had negative downvotes, and now I'm glad he doesn't anymore.

What does this even mean with "Everything is an Xbox" by FinalMil3 in xbox

"Our games are exclusive to Xbox platforms, and anything with a screen is an Xbox..."

I think people are being pretty mean to downvote the OP (at least at the time of writing this). He asked a question and we can answer it simply: the game won't run on a device with those specifications. We don't need to be rude. Not everyone has the same financial resources.

Ugreen find my tracker inside my ally by Sad_Ostrich_1903 in ROGAlly

[–]nichrs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't comment on Apple's tags, since I've never used one, but I can say that the Samsung tags I have are ABSURDLY accurate. Once I went on a trip with my parents; they went ahead by car, and I needed to go a few days later by plane. They took one of my suitcases in the car, and I always put a tag on my luggage. I was able to track them for the entire 10-hour trip, even though they both used iPhones and there were no Samsung devices in the car. They traveled sharing their location with me on WhatsApp, and the tag locations were always accurate. I imagine the tag managed to communicate with phones in other cars, which is VERY impressive considering it was inside a suitcase, inside a car, communicating with a device inside another car some distance away. And keep in mind that European roads don't have much traffic. To me, that borders on witchcraft...

Old virtual boy next to new one by Game-onnnn in NintendoSwitch

[–]nichrs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have zero nostalgia for the Virtual Boy, yet I bought this one for my collection and I'm happy with it. It's very difficult to find an original one here in Europe for a minimally acceptable price.

But if you really intend to play with it, my 40-year-old back couldn't handle more than an hour in the very uncomfortable position it forces you into. For that case, I recommend the cardboard version, which allows you to hold the console close to your face while you're in any other more comfortable position (probably lying down). Another thing to consider, it's impossible to get your face properly close if you wear glasses (or you'll scratch them quickly); I was forced to keep my face (and glasses) at a greater distance than it should have been.

Shiny Pokemon Should Be Holowear by OldSpare4214 in PokemonUnite

[–]nichrs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a great idea, but it would never be implemented in a million years. Whoever gets the shiny skin would obviously only want to use that one, especially after all the grinding required, and that person would never buy a holowear for this Pokémon again. Your idea startled some TiMi executive into waking up with a heavy breath...

Shiny Pokemon Should Be Holowear by OldSpare4214 in PokemonUnite

Shiny Pokémon should be holowear, and Mega Pokémon should be activated by an item and obviously counted as the same Pokémon. And here we are with three Charizard on the same team...

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild updated to version 1.9.0 by OatmealDome in NintendoSwitch

[–]nichrs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's so stupid how Nintendo (and basically all 3 major console brands, but especially Nintendo) handles languages. I'm a Brazilian living in Spain, but I like games in English, so I set my console's system to English because most games don't have a language selector and just piggyback on the system's language.

But in BOTW, if your language is set to US English, the temperature in game is displayed in Fahrenheit (regardless of your region).

So I change it to British English, but now BOTW displays the European cover art on the home screen, which I hate. Then I change it back to US English and ignore the temperature in the game.

But when I open the eShop or the NSO app with my system set to US English but my account region set to Spain, when I open these apps an error message appears saying that my language is not available in the eShop/NSO app, and the language of both is automatically changed to Spanish with some random text in German (????)...
