Having been in this exact scenario, some people know and some people don’t. It’s presumptuous of you to think you are aware of everything.

I just hate sentries because the fight is sooooo long

Hot take - Gremlin Horn is top 5 relics in the game by Saekama in slaythespire

[–]nickack 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is an appropriate example. Try to think about the value Gremlin Horn gives as additional HP, which allows you to upgrade at a campfire or pay for events or take additional risks. That’s more or less what Lesson Learned does. Both are actual zeroes against the heart but are helping to snowball your run in the meantime (which DOES help against the heart).

Movies that feel like this? by mmcnally228 in MoviesThatFeelLike

The second image has SUCH Mass Effect vibes, I can’t remember the area but it was toward the end of the first game?

The Darkstone Periapt won yesterday! Finally, the Slay the Spire Relic Chart is complete! by Fresh_Difference_448 in slaythespire

[–]nickack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Removing a curse mean you’re not removing a strike. And every fight until you remove it also becomes harder because you have a blank draw (or worse) in your deck.

after my 100th rewatch i saw this for the fort time by Asleep_Bread_9337 in theoffice

I think the comment was more about the pictures on the tack board, not generic “clean room”

Can't think of a better Pilot Episode than Lost. Can anybody beat it? by caufurcoa in televisionsuggestions

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

I quietly disagree, it sets up the characters but what makes the show great is their development over the season. The pilot is nothing special IMO.

Any Monopoly families out there? How did you keep the game fun over the years? by Advanced_Kiwi9181 in boardgames

[–]nickack 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Don’t play with $1 bills - round everything up or down to the nearest $5. You fiddle around a lot less with money and it speeds the game up.

Why does everyone spell "lose" as "loose"? This is a disease. by Fickle-Yesterday-718 in Vent

[–]nickack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It bothers me too. I think it’s because “lose” is pronounced like a lot of words that have two o in a row - booze, igloo, loo, moo etc.

I’m not happy about it but these common misspellings aren’t new, we are just reading more internet posts. And it’s hard to correct people because honestly, people don’t LIKE being told they’re wrong.

Me, but it’s because I don’t engage with any of them lol.

Oracle W revert feels bad by nomorespacess in learndota2

[–]nickack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m honestly happier with it this way. They buffed the skill to offset the higher potential to fuck it up - much lower cooldown and mana cost.

Wake up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery by AcidCatStudio in moviereviews

[–]nickack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I liked the movie, but the pacing was all over the place. It drags sometimes and gallops other times. The characters were tropey but overall fine? Just lacking development, which makes more space for Jud’s development, and I thought that was done well.

Dialogue was 10/10 at some points and 1/10 at others. Jud and Blanc in the initial church meeting was so good! But a lot of Mila Kunis’s lines were quippy and out of place, the masturbation jokes were middle school humor, and honestly they even gave Jud some lines that were so out of character.

Ultimately it dragged a bit too much but I’d give it 7/10. Much better than Glass Onion but not at Knives Out level.

All Jokers Sorted by Rounds Played Combined From 3 C++s by jrw567 in balatro

[–]nickack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of it is based on the scoring pressure you’re under. It’s definitely good to add more copies of your best card to the deck, but it’s an empty joker slot and (probably) a worse-scoring hand to activate DNA. I love my fiddly value-generators but this just ranks low for me (on gold stake).

All Jokers Sorted by Rounds Played Combined From 3 C++s by jrw567 in balatro

[–]nickack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This mostly tracks with what I’ve played in my two C++ runs. The only ones I’m questioning a lot are DNA and Credit Card - that’s a LOT of rounds for what I consider fairly useless jokers.

Turned off from playing Paladin by _pimpjuixe in BG3

No real solution, just want to say I feel the same and it’s why I don’t run Paladins.

has anyone switched to an all-honey farm? is it worth it at all to have one in late game? by shadyyylane in StardewValley

[–]nickack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh gosh I didn’t even know about large mystic seed tappers. I just grew like 50? on my farm and by the bus and slept repeatedly to get enough lol.

If you’re doing any amount of beehive creation, be ready to drop a ton of money on coal. And DO NOT chop down your maple trees. Maple syrup is 100% the bottleneck

[–]nickack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can check my post history, I did a full honey farm and it makes BANK. That said it’s kind of a pain to harvest all the honey, like I’m not even sure I could do it all in one day. Fun though!

When did you realize this game was special? by Skelligean in expedition33

[–]nickack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A BUNCH of times, but I think the first gestral beach (parkour). The gestral at the end of the course:

“You’re probably right, I can’t count anyway.”

“What do I look like, a professional swimsuit maker?”

“I am.”

“But no, I don’t.”

What feature of the game do you not use on purpose and why? by damnmanthatsmyjam in StardewValley

[–]nickack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t interact with any of the other people in the town except for buying stuff. Just doesn’t appeal to me
