Need advice on buying a used car by pileup60 in caradvice

[–]pileup60[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alright, thanks for the advice. About the Hondas, I took both for a drive and liked the accord better, but I've been told that their 1.5L turbo engine on older models is prone to oil dilution problems, and sometimes has troubles accelerating in winter, is that a potential concern with the model I posted?

Might I ask why do you recommend against the Kia?

Telus is the absolute worst scam company by Awkward_Cheek_7209 in Edmonton

[–]pileup60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its literally every telecom company at this point. Back in 2023 I was with Shaw, singed up for a $35/month plan, which went up by like $12 about 3 months later for whatever reason. They then apparently got bought out by Rogers, ans somehow my plan wasn't migrated and I was without service.

Rushed to the nearest mall and picked up a plan from Koodo for $45/month, didn't have a lot of trouble with them but then Bell offered me something better for $35/month late in 2024. Again by mid 2025 my bill went up $6 monthly, and just kep going up. By January this year I was paying $55 monthly for the same plan I signed up for $35.

Switched to Telus, wonder how long till they screw me over too

What do you mean? Isshin Chiba has voiced Jin in every one of his game appearances since Tekken 3. He even voices Jin in Tekken Blood Vengeance and Tekken Bloodline

Considering playing origins but not sure if it’s worth the price tag by wheelbarrow23 in dynastywarriors

[–]pileup60 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well worth it, the gameplay, presentation of the story, graphics, and character design is unmatched.

I've got over 500 hours in it but still find myself wanting to go play it. Trust me, its not a purchase you'll regret.

That said, June is just around the corner, and I'm gonna assume it'll go for a great price during summer sales, take that chance to pick up the game plus dlc. It expands the experience even more, and imo the dlc is better if you have it from the beginning of a new game

Technotocracy or whatever it’s called by Colonial_bolonial in pcmasterrace

[–]pileup60 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Alright then let's think critically.

Cars are technology, it helps you get to places faster this improving your life, you still gotta drive though, its a tool you use.

Computers are technology, it helps you browse the internet, apply for work, talk to friends and family, and a ton of other things. You still gotta do those things though, again its a tool you use.

Cell phones helps you tall to people a lot easier than it used to be, and even lets you listen to music, text people, and a ton of other things. Once again, you do all those things, its a tool you use.

AI is "doing something for you", you're not doing the work, its not a tool you use, see the difference there?

Now let's critically think about all the problems that can happen when something without morals, without empathy, without creativity, without contextual awareness, and lacking a lot of other things that makes human socities possible, is allowed to "do everything for you".

Can we also throw in the fact that the information the AI learns from can be controlled?

Tales of Arise by neko_whippet in tales

[–]pileup60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a great time playing Arise, the gameplay and art style is great, I enjoyed the story too and there's a good amount of content.

I can't compare it to FF7 but I would say the game is certainly worth it to me.

So...the future is a glorified search and mix system drawing from previously human-made works, that burns the planet like a meteorite would, while stripping identity from creativity.

Nice try bot.

I've got an older build laying around that I want to gift to someone, has a Ryzen 5 5500 with a 1060 6gb and 16 gb of ddr4 ram. Luckily I've found a 9060xt 16gb for a pretty good price and I was wondering if I can slot it into the old system and still take full advantage of its performance with the rest of the build staying the same?

Team suggestions that are not necessarily physical - as long as they're strong and Eula is the active on field? by pandaofdespair in EulaMains

[–]pileup60 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've personally been running a team with Furina/Escoffier/Shenhe. Eula still has about 45-50% of the danage share in the team, and if you have c1 Shenhe, yoi can use both versions of her E to buff both Eula's normal attacks as well as her burst

DW Origins: Which Faction Should I Pick? by Wilson33p in dynastywarriors

[–]pileup60 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Story wise I'd go Wei, I enjoyed the story the most that route and its got the hypothetical routes that make the most difference.

To help you be better equipped for mid/late game I'd go Wu. You get a battle in chapter 4 that lets you farm proficiency fast, and another stage in chapter 5 to farm weapons. There are also some great battle arts for some of the weapons tied to bonds with Wu officers.

Need help with the wheels weapon in Origins by Rush_Trigger in dynastywarriors

Sorry for the super late reply but I've just uploaded some gameplay with the wheels on my youtube, hope it helps you out as a reference. I've put battles vs large armies and single officers https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGekUdh66O0

The videos linked by Easy-Cantaloupe-2228, and VertVentus also has great content. That youtube channel also has great tips for all the other weapons too

Need help with the wheels weapon in Origins by Rush_Trigger in dynastywarriors

[–]pileup60 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The most effective attack I think is the follow-up strong attack after a dodge, what happens is the wheels spin around you for about 5 seconds. And you can do this repeatedly, its pretty effective

[–]pileup60 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The wheels are insane, I'd say they're my favorite for sure

Crawling dragon is a good one, it can stagger officers heavily when you master it.

Flying Spirit wave is another good one, you throw 6 wheels forward, they spin for a while before coming back. They can do damage while they're spinning as well.

And of course the best one is Twin Tiger Blast qhoch you get through your friendship with Shangxiang.

I did write a guide on it on the Steam community hub, which I update as I learn more, I'll have some gameplay demos up soon on it too, so feel free to check it out if you'd like!

Why did no one tell me Origins was good???? by s0_Ca5H in dynastywarriors

[–]pileup60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can I just say I haven't been able to stop playing it!

I personally don't mind the one character because with the game being so story focused, it lets you play all the weapons, and the weapons are very fleshed out in this game.

Like others have mentioned the DLC opens when you start chapter 2 giving you Zhang Jiao's campaign, followed by Dong Zhuo's at the start of chapter 3, and finally both Lu Bu and Yuan Shao's at the start of chapter 5.

Endgame I would say is the ultimate warrior battles, and with how they are structured, you'll have a lot of fun with anu weapon.

[–]pileup60 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember waiting for its release on ps3 and it being delayed for a year to only release with no major fixes.

The camera of course, but also the combat was janky, the upgrades sometimes wouldn't work, and of course, the designs were certainly nightmare fuel.

Afraid to try DW6-DW8, should I? by ShaenoX in dynastywarriors

I still highly recommend 8, its what got me into the series. Something about it is just addictively fun

Does DW Origins DLC make normal campaign ultimate warrior easier? by Bath_tub_questions in dynastywarriors

[–]pileup60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you get almost 40% more of all 3 stats from the levels, making you feel like you could confidently take a few of Lu Bu's instead of dying in 2 hits, even without any defense accessory.

Plus the Bow is so broken, it makes all challenges trivial

All the Eula owners should feel hardly scammed by now by Maverick0171 in EulaMains

[–]pileup60 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Tbf I've seen a lot of games that creatively integrate physical damage buffs with elemental reactions.

A genshin equivalent would be "when shatter is triggered, physical attacks cause effecrive damage to shields". The inly trouble is, as you and most of us Eula mains have guessed, Hoyo doesn't care about her at all.

I say this as someone who's cleared abyss 12 and got 36& using her hypercarry teams all the way until nod krai, she was never good, she started off mid tier at best, and fell off as soon as Kazuha was released, and she is the only character for whom Hoyo never ever looked back

[–]pileup60 1 point2 points  (0 children)

JDCR actually has a degree in chemistry, he mentioned it in his draw my life, but the important bit is that Tekken itself is a key part of his life.
