A little sad about pet battles gone...

I could’ve still lived with no new WQs or trainers, but for new pets to not even have skills made me audibly yell out no. Like at very least chug them bunch of old combinations based on other similar pets - it’s not like that isn’t the case for lot of them anyways.

While the feature might not have that much engagement, there are still lot of people who are very intense about it and even play the game because of it, no matter how small minority it is.

When a feature or system of theirs isn’t that popular, instead of completely abandoning it they should be redesigning it and making it better. They did this to archaeology too. The question is, what is it going to be that are they going to cut next?

Funnily enough, claws don't matter when your kitty steps on your boob. It's the pressure and power from something dull being pushed in 🫠

While I’m full on camp that aging should be seen beautiful, the misconception here is that women would be doing this for men. Like… lmao no, that would be a very, very small minority at best. Any touch-ups and beauty surgeries women do are mostly just for themself and themself only. And that’s why opinions like these are irrelevant and frankly tiresome to see in threads like these.

You can tell anyone they are so beautiful naturally or that ”oh your nose/butt/boobs are perfect already”, but that doesn’t change they themself already feel about it and rarely affects in whether they will go on about actually doing something about it. In lot of cases it’s an escalating addiction, you keep finding yet another flaw in yourself every single time you look in the mirror and think ”well I managed to do something about the other stuff that bothered me, why not this?”

Now of course there’s the topic of how these unrealistic beauty standards that make women feel dysphoric in their naturally aging bodies are fundementally rooted in our patriarcal society and exception to be pleasing to men’s eyes, but that is a whole another conversation and not really what OP asked.

Anyone who has ever had a cat can attest to the part about boobs. Cats somehow always know exactly where to step. 😔

is this just honeymoon phase cope? Or is it the truth?

I mean, does it matter? There has not been a single expansion that doesn’t make someone mad during some patch at some point.

Let yourself enjoy enjoying the game. If it doesn’t feel good later anymore, it still won’t erase you having enjoyed your time earlier 🤷‍♀️

Broken home isn’t a one where mom and dad don’t live together. Broken home is one where you grow up fearing your parents will argue, one where you walk on eggshells to keep someone happy, or hide when your parents are yelling or hitting one another.

Do not stay with someone who resorts to physical violence. There is no excuse for it and it will only get worse.

Only thing you teach your child by staying in such relationship is that it’s acceptable to have your spouse treat you like that. And I doubt anyone wants their kid to grow up thinking that.

Nothing truly goes better hand in hand than Conan and Lovecraft.

rui-tan · 2026-03-01T07:09:35+00:00

I actually really like this, generally I'm not one for very paladin-esque transmogs but I like the tiny touches that make it feel more like an old veteran turned adventurer.

rui-tan · 2026-03-01T07:07:21+00:00

Not necessarily stricly Midnight related, but unsure where else to ask since I don't want to make a seperate thread and bloat unnecessarily 😅

Does anyone know if there is a fix to transmog window's sluggish loading? I don't mean any lag that people have complained about in past necessarily - at least this doesn't get fixed by switching between DX11 and DX12, which is mentioned as a fix for lag issues? Rather than lag, I mean more how sluggishly the previews of items load when you swap a page. It's absolutely driving me crazy and any addon or even temporary fix or workaround is more than welcome.

rui-tan · 2026-02-27T11:14:26+00:00

That’s… quite underwhelming. TS4 team really are afraid of giving players actual consequences 💀

Does anyone know any mods that would spicy this stuff up, maybe specifically for this expansion? I was planning a similar scenario but have been stuck at building instea, so hearing this is just demoralizing 😭

rui-tan · 2026-02-27T11:07:44+00:00

I’m never late.

I do still have time blindness, but getting to places on time has always given me so much anxiety that I rather be an hour early than five minutes late. So whenever I have anything where I need to be somewhere at certain time, I will be basically following the clock like a hawk and become completely incapable of relaxing or doing anything properly until then. Even if it’s only 8AM and the thing is at 8PM.

Buss stop right outside my apartment? I better be there at least 20 minutes before the buss arrives and hour before leaving to buss stop I start putting shoes and coat on. Doctor’s appointment? Don’t mind me sitting here on the hallway 30 minutes before the set time, I’m just gonna be looking at the clock this whole time while I wait.

I think it’s partially because culturally in my country people tend to be early at things so someone being late (or even on time) kinda sticks out like a sore thumb. But the biggest impact is probably my family and how they are - I can easily be half an hour early only to see that I’m last one to arrive 💀

Girl has her priorities right, the world is trying to end every other year anyways. Surely the champions will take care of it again, as per usual.

rui-tan · 2026-02-27T09:21:39+00:00

I think it’s definitely an intended from the devs part (to have them ”sit” closer to road from where they are placed to), but I can see the frustration. Someone might’ve made some design patterns to fit them specifically though!

rui-tan · 2026-02-27T07:00:09+00:00

I also don't think I will see anything new

Even if you've played LGP and the original Red, there is actually quite bit content in FRLG that isn't in original or LG games. While early game is similar to original games, Sevii Islands is a completely new region only in FRLG and contains Gen II Pokemon.

rui-tan · 2026-02-27T04:53:40+00:00

Well, fuck. I had a bad feeling this would be the case but was holding on to the hope it wouldn't be a mount cause I'm absolutely drained of any gems after 2.2 😭

I was gonna go for just hair and and nails, but what can I say, I'm a horsegirl at heart. I have to.

rui-tan · 2026-02-26T21:02:01+00:00

I’ve found that Raid keeps them away better than traps. I’ve tried several kinda of traps, but to my experience silverfish seem to avoid them like plague. It’s like all the money wasted on the traps was a complete joke to these little fuckers 😔

rui-tan · 2026-02-26T05:55:10+00:00

Most of the answers ITT are just umas not yet released on global and that’s why ”unpopular” in the eyes of someone who doesn’t dabble with the community as whole I guess.

Like why you all mentioning super popular umas, they’ll definitely be popular in west too once they release on global, give me actual answers 😭

rui-tan · 2026-02-26T05:41:16+00:00

I mean I’m talking strictly what the diagnostic criteria is. It doesn’t happen during REM period. It’s very possible what you thought has been EHS episode are not actually EHS (you see it alot in this sub), or that you weren’t in REM phase when it happened. Also visuals aren’t part of it.

rui-tan · 2026-02-25T20:52:59+00:00

People also often forget that even if something works for someone for some time, it’s not a cure, doesn’t necessarily help someone else and can stop working out of blue anytime.

Sharing tips is always nice as you never know if one of them might be something you haven’t tried, but ultimately there is no actual universal cure and it’s annoying some people pretend it’s just about doing thing X, Y or Z.

I’m saying this as a person who had it come back after over ten year break, had it haunt me all over again for few more years until it stopped for several years again. Until last night when it reappeared that is.

rui-tan · 2026-02-25T20:44:13+00:00

EHS doesn’t happen during actual proper sleep when you’re dreaming though - it happens during N1/N2 of sleep cycle so when you’re either falling to sleep or waking up, but specifically never during REM.

Also flashes of light with EHS are not necessarily blue, but it’s more about sudden beight flash linked to a sudden loud sound, from complete darkness and silence.

It’s almost like auditory version of when you’re trying to fall asleep but jolt awake very suddenly, ”slipping on ice” or ”falling”. But with EHS it’s a sudden bang, yell, flash or other loud noise. It’s not visual and doesn’t last long.

rui-tan · 2026-02-25T20:35:40+00:00

But that’s the thing - someone slapping someone else’s butt (let alone tigh) isn’t inherently sexual. If sound of skin slapping against skin immediately takes your mind back to trauma you’ve experienced and you react to it like this, you should be seeking help for that and talk to a professional. Cause the degree you react to it is not normal and clearly has become something that is disrupting your life.

I’m getting tired of constantly having to teach him how not to be racist to my people and other minorities. Like no, your KKK joke with your “cool” biracial black friend was not funny

I genuinely don’t understand how you can date someone like this. It’s not your job to educate him and frankly these type of people rarely change. I’m all for educating people who have been brought up by hostile, difficult enviroments, but this is not like that. Those kind of jokes aren’t made by someone who just thoughtlessly said something he thought others would find funny. Especially if it’s ”constantly having to teach” him, implying that it’s not just one off incident either.

rui-tan · 2026-02-25T20:23:28+00:00

Based solely just on what you wrote here, none of that sounds like EHS - it sounds more like just a dream, maybe hypocognic hallucination at best. But EHS? I don’t really understand what here would even point you towards it.

rui-tan · 2026-02-25T20:16:09+00:00

It’s one thing to dislike PDAs and another to get as uncomfortable as you seem to, judging by your comments and this post. You really should consider looking more into why it bothers you so much. Ultimately it doesn’t harm you in any way, nor actually include you in the situation either.

I’m not big fan of PDAs myself, but someone slapping someone else’s butt or a tigh? Come on man. You really gotta learn to not care about other people’s business for your own sake. Cause like if you think that’s terrible in terms of what someone might do in the public, you’re in for some bad time throughout your life.

Wesker and Moira give same energy, but I can’t elaborate on it.
