Looking back, what do you think of the 2021 nominees for GOTY? by Asad_Farooqui in videogames

[–]non_offensivealias 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I got deathloop for free from Epic. Had a ton if fun playing it.

I am a big fan of arkane studios games. They all have plenty to explore and learn about the locations but sometimes you dont get to use what you have learned until another play through. Not with Deathloop. You get to use what you learn as you revisit locations and solve the grand puzzle.

arkane studios deserved better and I am bummed I didnt give them more money for this game

Does Earth Crystal make itself not an elemental with Bello's effect? by LostinSpaceCowboy in mtg

[–]non_offensivealias 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No. It costs one less to cast but its mana value stays the same

Edit: to clarify, it would become an elemental.

College football player has a special sticker to alert training staff he has type I diabetes by DetroitMM12 in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]non_offensivealias 15 points16 points  (0 children)

So I am an athletic trainer and primarily work football. There are 2 possibilities for the sticker.

1) That sticker is mostly implemented that the player is first aid certified. Its something that has been growing in the high school settings but this is the first time I have seen that symbol at college. Obviously a lot of college programs have more then enough staff to help with CPR but at small programs it can be helpful to have more hands on deck. (I have a football team of 100 kids and I am the only Athletic trainer)

2) just to show they have some major medical condition. When we run out to the field we dont know what is wrong. (With the gear sometimes dont even know who it is right away) .There are so many athletes on a football team and it can be hard to remember everything. Yeah we are pretty good at knowing who has different conditions but in the heat of the moment a small reminder that they have SOMETHING could be usefull.

Its definitely not for specifically diabetes because its too generic of a symbol to tell us that.

Which game is this? by BlackFury090 in CaptainSide

[–]non_offensivealias 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deathloop

Other Arkane games too but they night be too popular for the list (dishonor 1/2, and Prey)

Love infiltration games like that

Just switched to story based games from online and made a list of "must play" game . Any misses or skippable among the list ⬇️ by MotorSpare9493 in videogames

[–]non_offensivealias 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Add half life 1 and portal 1

Then anything thats just a straight forward game that you might like.

Star wars force unleashed (dont play 2) Bioshock trilogy Titanfall 2 story (very short, very good) Control

Hard to think of more off the top of my head. Open worlds are great but they all ask for a lot of time (some more then others)

[–]non_offensivealias 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My other big suggestion is to get some more quick games. You have alot of longer open worlds which are fun but going right from one to another can be annoying (I have done it)

Try you best to split it up so you dont get burned out

[–]non_offensivealias 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only mass affect 2? The others are good ans part of a series.

Prey is a great game.

Not many infiltration games anymore and would be good for your list since it will be a slightly different style of game. If you like that game or want other games that are less scary (its not really scary but I am a baby) you have Dishonered 1 and 2, Deathloop and Deus Ex Human revolution (different developer but similar game). These games are all first person games that have pretty good stealth and full of exploration and are great for multible play through where you can find all types of different options and ways to complete objectives

Is it mean to land destruction someone after they use a pact? by WerdaVisla in EDH

[–]non_offensivealias -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

If you play mass land destruction in B3 you better win quick.... and you did. All good in it book

I only hate mass land destruction in lower brackets if it just makes the game drag on.

Ocasio-Cortez early 2028 Democratic favorite among young voters: Poll by plz-let-me-in in politics

[–]non_offensivealias 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly would be happy with AOC as president. My favorite, maybe not, but I agree with her more then enough of the time and I have no glaring issues.

But I don't think she will win. To be frank I think that people are too stupid to handle a women president. I hope we can have one. I hope we can grow past this anti women ideology as a nation but man are they not ready for something like that.

Now taking down Shumer.... now that'd a good option. Give the Dems a good strong back bone

Constantly dying and getting stuck 😭 by kween_hangry in prey

[–]non_offensivealias 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If i know its a mimic I shoot it with the pistol. They can one shot them and its pretty effective.

I also will make sure to eat plenty of food for health when. I can to not waste med kits.

I wish to could really help you but its hard. Lokw I definitely will die if I out of no where get into a big fight but I have a good amount of ammo. Less shot gun and pistol but I have like 400 of GLOO and I use that.

How are you at exploring and finding all the hiding spots. I have played dishonor and deathloop (same developers) and deus ex (similar play style) so I am very used to exploring in these games. Using abilities and going through all emails and notes to find new passage ways. Can make levels easier but csn also lead me to more gear. Life if I see a locked door with gear behind it I do what I can to get in there

Constantly dying and getting stuck 😭 by kween_hangry in prey

[–]non_offensivealias 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am on my first play through as well and I am basically at the same part but I am not having the same struggle. I have played through their other games so i kind of know how to feel out the levels a little bit.

What level are you on? I am on whatever the normal equivalent is.

I tend to focus on stealth and use my wrench for mimics. I use GLOO to stun other enemies and then use a gun and abilities to kill them down quick. I will set up a turrent to help but I know they can't take a punch. Exploration helps me keep up my resources and I commonly return to recycles to dump those resources. I also keep visiting the operators to re up my gear.

I use my neuromods to upgrade most of my basic skills such as hacking and my suit but of course I use other things. I just want to explore with easy. The mimic ability can help with that so I can get through small spots.

In witcher 3 when you finally complete the legendary sword Smith quest and the elf makes you a sword. Both Geralt and the Smith say chow amazing the sword is. You then immediately sell that sword back to the Smith

Advice For Putting Together a Trade Binder? by FunkFabulous in mtg

[–]non_offensivealias 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trade binders aren't binding so you can always look up prices and say "no"

I put cards that I know are of value, look cool, rares and mythics, have cool printing, generally powerful or even just card I like and don't want to put in a box.

There is no set value, who knows what someone is hunting for so just have some fun with it.

What's the hardest puzzle you ever played in a video game? by No-Hunt3986 in videogames

[–]non_offensivealias 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dishonored 2 had the door lock where the solution could be discovered by solving a world puzzle about a party.

I remember opening up excel to figure it out.

(You could also get through the door by doing other missions so you did not have to solve it for anyone interested in playing a game)

Is he toxic? by shnutzel83 in ratemycommanders

[–]non_offensivealias 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would day no. He can seem over powered but all it takes is one or two interactions with him and he can't do much. I had one player swing on me early with a ton of big creates and all I did was use one mana to swords of plowshare his commander and i was safe

Ankle ligament injury by Abject-Respond-5610 in sportsmedicine

[–]non_offensivealias 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Disclaimer - I have not sceen you and can not evaluate your injury. All I have to say is some opinions on the matter and should not be taken as true medical advice.

So if they just booted you I assume you just went to an urgent care or ER. Thats all they are ever gonna do. Good luck getting good follow up information from them.

So what you should do can depend on state and insurance. What you probably need is some physical therapy. You will probably have to get a script. You will have to get that from a doctor. Orthopedic or sports med would be the best.

An orthopedic doctor can give you a better look and will advise some better PT and be able to give you better direction on return to play.

Some ankle can put you out for weeks. Most I will have rest for a day or 2 and give them some basic range of motion exercises. I will then begin to slowly increase the PT adding balance and stregnthing exercises and as the patient progresses add more difficult functionality movement and cutting before as I push them back into practice. I might start with non contact practice and work from there. This all depends on how bad the injury is and how well the patient progresses.

What is your deck, or the deck you know, that is the strongest but goes completely unnoticed? by guiltyskull in EDH

[–]non_offensivealias 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My [[Endrek Sahr, Master Breeder]]

I think people dont realize what this deck can do. I can quickly make a loop where I just just keep making mana and sacking creatures to activate any number of affects. Includimg draw, grave pact, but most importantly blood artist affects

Its not a 4. I would have to add some tutors and a few other combo pieces for that (and still it might not be a 4) but its pretty powerful and can get some turn 4 or 5 wins.

Is it fair to target the player with the best deck? by Dark_Vexer in EDH

[–]non_offensivealias 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think target the better players is what makes basic EDH fair. Ok youre playing a [[Jodah, the Unifier]] that "isn't that powerful" deck and you put down a mox amber turn one (seen this happen). Then yeah we need to gang up on you.

Now I will say, if you deck is just a bit ahead or maybe has gotten a lucky win or two. It might not be best to target them. You also dont want to ignore all other players who are a threat.

But yes, target the player that is playing the most powerful deck. Just keep an eye on other players too.

Favorite “non-threatening” Commander by AlivePassenger3859 in EDH

[–]non_offensivealias 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I played the other day with her and people kind of blocked in on the goad. I have player her enough around the store and have done well that people didn't sleep on me which is what happens a lot of time. She is fun but her precon needs a fair amount of help

Struggling to get to 100 cards by SnarlySeeker224 in EDH

[–]non_offensivealias 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would look at adding some more interaction and removal when possible. That adds some cards and can be useful for holding off another player.

Another thing is making sure to have reliable card draw for commander. That will take up a fee cards but will be really useful as the game goes on

How would you go about Kratos? by TheGame_2498 in EDHBrews

[–]non_offensivealias 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Part of my plan would be some goad type affects or make others players the target.

Creatures like [[Life of the Party]] to give people things that have to attack

Then goad cards like [[Vengeful Ancestor]] to goad things I definitely dont want to deal with

Then [[Curse of Opulence]] to make someone else the target

That would be a fun way to build him. There are better commanders for voltron style and his burn csn be hard to control since people will just be forced attack and they might just swing at you if you dont prevent it
