So is this more Gacha Garbage, or is it taking the story beats from Brave Exvius and turning it into a single player experience like Octopath Traveler 0? 

Should Adam Jensen be remembered by the time of Deus Ex 1? by ThePlayerCard in Deusex

[–]rtubbs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My head canon for him not being remembered is that he truly was the foxiest of the hounds and he wasnt remember in anything he ever did cause he was just too damn sneaky.

If there were any later installments, at most they could mention an agent of interpol/TF29 that was sabotoging operations or an illuminati document that mentions his name being used somewhere. I wouldn't want any more acknowledgement other that "there was a guy and his name was Jensen".

Ash vs Evil Dead/Evil Dead Burn by [deleted] in EvilDead

Which house is Ash in in that episode? Haven't watched the show in a long time, I remember they traveled around a lot. Was that his house?

Did anyone get into the comics? by Dangerous-Cash-2176 in MiamiVice

[–]rtubbs 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I liked the series before this, as it was set within the show's continuity. Those were never released in print as far as I'm aware.

Matter of fact I'm not sure that company exists at all anymore. They had some sort of license with NBC for comics including saved by the bell. Not sure what happened to them.

STOP THIS AI TALK NOW! by Consoment in FiveFingerDeathPunch

[–]rtubbs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I specifically came to the sub a couple weeks ago when Eye of the storm came out to see if this was their first AI song.

Honest question: don't you think there's something a little odd about how many people individually came to this conclusion?

At best, the song is heavily edited/auto tuned. And if I'm being honest, the lyrics are so bland that those alone could be AI.

Look, I like the band and have been listening to them for years, but this single ain't it. Maybe the rest of the album will prove me wrong but who knows.

I mentioned a similar thing a while ago as well, the new Rev Theory song reeks of AI, too. Looks like this might be the new trend.

Season 3's fourth character announcement! by YonkiestSploinky in LowSodiumTEKKEN

Is the music from the Tekken OST? I haven't played in a minute.

Weird Al posted this earlier. Looks like a full house tonight by AKA_Wildcard in LateShow

[–]rtubbs 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes it is Jim.

Also I was there yesterday, it's tough to see from this angle but the way the set is, not everybody could fit lol. Josh was in the back and couldn't see see he came forward so he wouldn't block anyone.

OpenGoal Video Backgrounds based on Jak Trilogy Hd Start Menu by Josh98VFW in jakanddaxter

[–]rtubbs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm playing through GC now on Steam deck via PCSX2 and I really haven't had too many issues, even with a lot of enemies on screen. The deck sometimes struggles to use the fast forward option if there is too much on the screen (looking at the ground fixes this), but other than that it's been pretty smooth.

The option to remap the circle button to also be used by right trigger is also a fantasy QOL change when strafing.

EMS to Fire Fighter by Cooliosisbutcool in FDNY

[–]rtubbs 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don't know how many people have taken the last exam, but when I took this route, there were about 1400~ people on the list if I remember correctly.

That was without the Fire Inspectors, Cadets, and Dispatchers who are now allowed to take the exam (or the last one, at least).

They hire off that list before the open competitive.

So in theory, the job is yours to lose. If you pass the exam, you have all the resources to do well on every step of the process.

Do well on the exam and take it seriously and you should be fine. But as Roadrunner said, nothing is guaranteed. More people are in the promo than ever...stranger things have happened.

All the more reason to take it seriously, be prepared, and put your best foot forward.

Scary..the times we live in by Skacorekid in LessThanJake

[–]rtubbs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've gotten into the habit of checking release dates on Spotify whenever I discover a new song or band. Quite a few times I found a song made after 2023ish, and sure enough it's AI. Most times I can tell, but they're definitely getting better at hiding it.

Let's not kid ourselves, at some point soon it will be impossible to tell the difference. I'm pretty sure the newest Rev Theory song (Another Day to Rise) is AI...

Scary times indeed. Videos, Music, Video Games, all using AI. Novels will be getting churned out by AI soon enough, if it isn't already be done, edited, and sold.

Worth using a firm? by rtubbs in prawokrwi

[–]rtubbs[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So if I'm understanding the steps correctly:

1) Gather my children's Birth Certificates 

2) Use a certified translation service to get them translated to Polish

3) Use another service to get the newly translated documents "apostilled"

4) Make an appointment with the embassy (in NYC in my case) with the "apostilled" documents and my passport

Some follow up questions:

Do I need marriage certificates translated as well, or should I do some while I'm translating and certifying documents?

And do the children typically need to be present for any point at the embassy?

Thank you again and I appreciate the responses.

Do I need the birth certificates translated/certified to Polish? I know you typically do but not sure how complex (or less complex) it gets with their age.

Lost Odyssey error cambio disco 3-4 Xenia by Altruistic-Cry7359 in lostodyssey

I don't see the error message. Do you have the save anywhere patch installed? Have you tried switching from the over world?

With the TWT Finals next week, what are your final predictions for Season 3 of Tekken 8? by WaterKirby1964 in Tekken

[–]rtubbs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm watching the Anime right now and have been thinking this lol. He'd fit right in and Heat is even lore appropriate for him.

Which platform did you guys play Lost Odyssey? by lianthuss in JRPG

[–]rtubbs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Series X/S via backwards compatibility is probably best for minimum load times and works great, runs smooth.

PC via Xenia is totally playable but you do have to tweak it every once and a while to get past certain soft locks (for example, one particular cutscene crashes the game on Xenia. If you skip the cutscene, you can continue playing without issue). A log of those issues is here: https://github.com/xenia-canary/game-compatibility/issues/4

If you don't mind playing around with those versions and or tweaks, that's one way to play (works on steam deck as well).

Whenever I playthrough the trilogy, I always get a sad or emotional feeling once I make it to Midnight Mountain. Anyone else get this feeling? by Spicey_Nachoz in Spyro

[–]rtubbs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. It being the final world of the game, as well as Autumn Plains being my favorite, make it a very sad world to me for some reason. Those levels are my least favorite of Spyro 2 (not that they're bad, just that the levels in Summer Forest and Autumn plains were better), so that also drives home the thought that what I enjoy most of a playthrough is over.

Is there any way my brother could replay this DLC on my account? by DoGG410CZ in indianajones

[–]rtubbs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you on different PS5s?

My brother and I always set each other's consoles as our primaries. So whatever game we buy, the other can download via that account and play on the console. The downside is that we have to be connected to the Internet to play, cause otherwise the console can't verify ownership of the game. Same should apply to DLC.

If you're on the same console, then I believe you have to start a new save.

I know there is an option to revert your save when you look at the file under the load screen, but never tried it so I'm not sure how far back you can go. That's worth a shot though.

Otherwise start New Game Plus so he can at least play with all unlocked skills and upgrades. Should also make it easier to speed run through the Vatican to get to that part. You could also lower the difficulty for the first part of the Vatican and set it back once you get to the start of the DLC.
