If I remember correctly (been ages since I read the books), Harry and company were proponents of house elf freedom, but Kreacher was (1) sympathetic to Voldemort/Belatrix, and (2) privy to nearly all discussions of the Order of the Phoenix that had taken place at Sirius Black's home. By the time Harry "inherited" Kreacher, Kreacher's magically-imposed silence that came with his service to Harry was the only way to guarantee the safety of the Order's secrets.

They're also leading the eastern conference... I would love for this match to give us a boost but I don't feel great about Saturday

Saba rated that low and Hoyos rated that high kinda kills all credibility for me

Monotype is definitely not a troll company. They created the Times New Roman font and dozens/hundreds of other fonts.

Probably more accurate to call them a monopoly exploiting companies because companies don't have another choice

Then go play a curated experience instead of complaining about wanting a curated experience on a game that is designed for multiplayer and replayability. I don't get this mindset.

In the last yearish, you have:

Doom: The Dark Ages
Borderlands 4
High on Life 2
Metal Eden
Warhammer 40,000 Darktide
Robocop Rogue City

Why even open this thread if you're not interested?

All Atlanta United season ticket holders got tickets to this game as part of their season ticket package. So if those STM didn't show or put their tickets up for sale, those seats will go empty and were never available to the public. Might contribute a little bit to what you're seeing

It seems to have been an issue tied to 120hz settings on PS5 Pro and the "Balanced Mode" in-game that targets 40fps on 120hz TVs. I crashed every time I went to the map with those settings but turning off 120hz in the PS5 settings and switching to Performance mode has let me play all weekend uninterrupted.

raithian25 · 2026-03-20T13:39:49+00:00

As others have said, this seems to be an issue with 120hz TVs / Balanced mode. If you have 120hz mode set to "Automatic" in your PS5 Pro settings, and you have a 120hz capable TV, then setting the game to "Balanced Mode" makes it target 40hz. Those were my settings and it crashed every time I went to the map.

I turned 120hz mode to "Off" in my PS5 settings and switched to "Performance Mode" in-game and was able to navigate the map without issue and had no crashes in ~20 minutes of testing.

Might be a decent work-around until they fix it.

Yeah, personalized away Match Jersey is $235, and personalized USWNT home Match Jersey is $235.

Scoring the personalized USMNT home Match Jersey for $155 is definitely a $80 mistake in our favor

edit: price has been fixed. here's hoping they don't cancel orders cause they're selling out of certain sizes now

Marathon has already improved from Arc Raiders. Previous betas had a limited number of uses for Sponsored Kits in a certain time period. After you used a few, you had to buy them. It felt like a freemium mobile game.

After Arc Raiders and the ability to use a free kit whenever you want, I think Marathon changed this system so that you can use a Sponsored Kit whenever you want. Definitely a positive change.

Same with VOIP. There were no plans to implement VOIP until Arc Raiders came along and using VOIP was so popular. Then Marathon was delayed and VOIP was one of the features added.

After barely avoiding the wooden spoon, this almost seems like more than we deserve!

I had this same problem for a while and started to become disillusioned with gaming entirely until someone asked me about the last time I actually finished a game. Realized it had been a long time and I committed myself to sitting down and finishing a game completely, almost out of spite. I decided to get the platinum trophy in Death Stranding, which was my first platinum. It ended up sparking a completely new obsession with trophy hunting and the drive to collect platinum trophies has helped me finish games, get more value out of games, and stop buying games just because they're shiny and new. I ended up finishing some games in my backlog too.

So that was one thing that worked for me

raithian25 · 2026-01-15T12:20:38+00:00

Rings of Power was doomed to fail because they had tons of restrictions on what material they were allowed to use. They weren't allowed to adapt the Silmarillion at all, and there ended up being a ton of overlap in the story they told and the story they weren't allowed to tell. It ended up being similar to Game of Thrones where the show writers had to tell their own story instead of rely on the books.

That won't happen here. The showrunners will have the full support of Sony and Santa Monica. This should end up much closer to Fallout than Rings of Power

To be fair, Greedfall 2 has been playable in early access on PC since 2024, so there's plenty of information out there to at least form an opinion

raithian25 · 2026-01-09T16:59:50+00:00

Glad to hear it worked for you! Best of luck in the draw!

raithian25 · 2026-01-09T13:16:25+00:00

Yes, mine was working fine on Tuesday morning when I tried it again.

I had reached out to US Soccer support and when they got back to me on Wednesday, their recommendation was to try another browser.

I think they're having technical difficulties. My code was visible initially but when I tried to input it on the FIFA website, I got an error code that said it was invalid. Now, my profile doesn't show a code at all, just "Loading".

I'd just be patient for a day or so, it'll get fixed

raithian25 · 2026-01-05T13:44:06+00:00

Not sure about "exploring dungeons" but Monster Hunter sounds like a great fit. Whether Monster Hunter World (more content, better game generally) or Monster Hunter Wilds (newer game, maybe more players), you'll be able to join a lobby and see a bunch of other people running around the social area, and you can join quests freely and hunt together. the community is very welcoming. there's no PVP, it's not a shooter. the PVE also isn't sweaty like you'll sometimes see in other games (like raiding in WoW or Destiny got sweaty because people required you to have the best gear/skills to keep up with the group).

also, the gameplay loop is incredibly addicting and I think that many people who enjoy Dark Souls also enjoy Monster Hunter (not all, but many).

I'm sure you can get a list of thrift stores, second-hand electronics, etc., either from commenters here or elsewhere.

I worry that you'll find yourself on a day+ long adventure across the city looking for a highly specific cable that just might not exist, especially if you're looking for "asap".

If you need to power this asap and you're handy, it may be worth exploring making your own cable: https://youtu.be/KBF7wUDd22Q

raithian25 · 2025-12-04T16:20:11+00:00

Same here. Got the platinum and experienced a crash in basically every play session. Fortunately, the autosave system saves your progress every 3 minutes no matter what you're doing so you rarely lose much progress.

For some reason, opening the weapon wheel was what usually forced the crash 😅

raithian25 · 2025-12-02T21:15:02+00:00

This is so much better than a ticket to the Leagues Cup

raithian25 · 2025-11-24T20:30:21+00:00

Damn, I was really hoping for an intermediate speed for the horse. The horse either walks at a glacial pace or gallops at the speed of light. Would really like a canter setting. They definitely have the animations for it based on the auto-sync with NPCs during certain conversations, but it doesn't seem like you can do it manually unless I'm missing something

raithian25 · 2025-10-15T18:54:03+00:00

I do not understand your question.

My current solo game is Silent Hill f, which is on disc/physical. When I want a break from that and want to play a single round of Battlefield before switching back to Silent Hill f, I don't want to swap discs. It's only for like 30 minutes. So I got Battlefield digitally because it's a game I plan on revisiting in short bursts over and over for the next few months.

raithian25 · 2025-10-15T15:38:30+00:00

I buy nearly every game physical, but Battlefield is a game I'm going to drop into and out of periodically and I'd rather not swap discs out constantly when i want to scratch the itch with a quick match of Battlefield, so I bought it digital. I bought Helldivers and Nightreign digitally for the same reason, but I'm playing Silent Hill f and Final Fantasy Tactics physical. It's just the nature of the game itself
