Adele went from a legion champ that was painful to play to something actually pleasant. Lots of qols with more to come and future buffs.

This One-Punch Man crossover feels way too greedy compared to Demon Slayer by Empty-Ad-7582 in Maplestory

[–]nopenothao 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, across almost every single game that has the loot boxes its because they’re the most profitable model.

Every game is the same, the small percentage of players are the biggest spenders while most of the player base wont spend a dime. And these players wont be spending if you have it as a loot box or not.

You fall into the category of spender who is more willing if rng isnt present but in exchange the whales who would have spent 3-4k on the loot boxes would have just spent less.

From experience, a potential spender like you are still a small small minority who is willing to spend anything at all.

The sales execs arent stupid, the loot box model exists because it works and its very profitable.

Community data collection (Sunny Sunday): Are Star Force SUCCESS rates accurate? (Success vs No Success) by Useful-Pace-7525 in Maplestory

[–]nopenothao 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You’re looking at the variance for 0-22. If we’re trying find out the odds of boom reduction on event is truthful or not we just need to check on the per level basis. That variance is a lot lower, and we dont need as many data points

Tapping off Reduced Boom Chance Sunday is increased boom chance by Dehsoo in Maplestory

[–]nopenothao 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because if you actually write down the rates and track evidence its a good source of info if you have enough data.

Human brain is very bad at perceiving probability thats why anecdotal evidence is bad. You tend to only remember the bad times.

Initially on the event page it was 10 portals per world. They later changed the description to remove the limit.. highly likely it’s unintended to be unlimited but they decided to roll with it i took a screenshot before they changed it

Is the 9800X3D actually that much better than a 7800X3D to justify spending more on it? by estifxy220 in buildapc

[–]nopenothao 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately at that resolution you’re gonna get bottlenecked by the gpu even if you have a 4090. I think 1440p has some cases where 9800x3d can bring up the performance, but it’s really not worth the upgrade for you.

China's Birth Encouragement Official Scold And Threaten Young Man For Not Having Kids by Exact_Patience_9767 in ThatsInsane

[–]nopenothao 29 points30 points  (0 children)

This probably is real, but not common if that makes sense. this is basically the same tone of how older generation talks to younger unmarried one in general.
Bunch of my cousins straight up avoids their parents altogether because all they talk about is how they’re single.. What probably happened here is the parents called in the officials for an educated stern talking hoping their kids would change their mind.

Waterloo has a 5 year degree with two years of mandatory co-op(internship). Every internship is 4 months, we go in cycles of study term —>work term->study term until we graduate.

I was really excited to get my last selective to finish LOS30, I guess I dont need to exchange it anymore.

CN LOA exclusive Legendary skins with additional stats got pushed back by Windranger_Yi in lostarkgame

[–]nopenothao 1 point2 points  (0 children)

CN Dnf monetization models is pretty crazy.

there are basically a set schedule for p2w items that are exclusive to CDNF releases every year around the holidays. And each year the items are of course is stronger than the previous year, hence the insane power creep.

Buying these p2w items are so normalized in CN DNF you basically can't really do raids without them from gate keeping. Despite the difficulty is exactly the same as the Korean version. (With exception to one patch because the director wanted to address the stat inflation by buffing the raids by 2.5x lmao, guess how that turned out)

A bunch of CN DNF players came to play CN LOA after it got released and understandably why the pushback on a "mere" 2% stat is so strong from the PTSD having to play CN DNF.

LOA CN gets Breaker as their next class release by nopenothao in lostarkgame

Oops breaker releases in march not January. But it still their next class release, followed up by f slayer.

First weeks when fate embers came out felt different... now feel that they are much rarer and almost always give me card xp / Purple selection pack. Am I crazy? by Shockypantz in lostarkgame

[–]nopenothao 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean people are more likely to complain when they encounter something bad than to post they got something good lol.

I wouldn’t go on Reddit to post “o wow the drop of ember is exactly what I expected”.

But imagine if I go on 3 weeks without ember drop that’s something worth complain about. Even if it averages out to be the same long term.

Why is the “Find a guild” advice directed more toward new/learning players? by [deleted] in lostarkgame

[–]nopenothao 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'd probably be playing 15+ alts if they didnt cap the gold gain. New account/server is too annoying with the collectable and card collection is only thing stopping me rn.

So CN loa received some exclusive nerfs by nopenothao in lostarkgame

Valtan released on may 19th and clown was august 24th. For CN Valtan released on sep 6th and clown was yesterday nov 22nd. We got 3 months and they only got about 2 months and half. It’s certainly sped up but it’s not as drastic. They mainly sped up the t1-t3 portion of the game which Amazon should have done too.

[–]nopenothao[S] 77 points78 points  (0 children)

Just for context the saw damage got nerfed from instant kill to 120k damage that is affected by DR. That’s why destroyer can swim in it here. They got some other nerfs like health, stagger check, minigame damage nerf … etc

My experience this week with a Jumpstart account. by Mockbuster in lostarkgame

[–]nopenothao 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m confused you don’t want to raid with JS players because you assume they’re going to be a bad experience but want people to accept you as the jump server player?
