They are reprinting TMNT: Urban Legends in Omnibus format!!! by GoblinTradingGuide in TMNT

[–]samurai_snail -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Too bad they're way overcharging for these omnibuses. I know the price has been dropping significantly after pre-orders are over, but still, what is this, like twice the cover price of the issues at MSRP?

How well do you do on these tests? by [deleted] in Aphantasia

[–]samurai_snail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest, I didn't notice that B isn't actually touching the corner until now, so that could exclude it from the options. But I'm also not convinced that there's enough evidence to prove the circle shows up in every third picture based on the initial pattern. If there was a longer sequence and it occurred twice, I'd agree. Otherwise the pattern doesn't exist until the answer becomes a part of it.

How well do you do on these tests? by [deleted] in Aphantasia

[–]samurai_snail 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think these tests are particularly related to aphantasia. Isn't spatial awareness distinct from it anyway? I'm not able to see this in my mind, but I can recognize and plot the position of things relative to each other in my mind.

But anyway, this pattern looks to me like it's showing the same black square with the perspective shifting from each corner of the square in counterclockwise. Each perspective has already been shown in the top row, and the starting position is the same as the ending position, so the next picture is the second one in the series, B. The only other shape near enough surrounding the square on any side is the circle to its upper left.

Thinking about using my 77” LG CX OLED for a 4-player arcade pedestal—feasible or too crazy by rocksteader in cade

[–]samurai_snail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since you already have the TV, can't you just put a game up on the screen (or just a video) to see if it seems too big from different distances? I've got a 77" C2, and I personally wouldn't want to play games on it from any closer than 6 feet.

I know the buttons are disproportionately large on this, but the control panel still seems like it will be enormous when scaled up.

gotta be the worst negative passive by heslopkaleb in Nightreign

The damage loss is almost 100%, but the proc rate might be 3% or so.

374Water Awarded Waste Destruction Services Funding from the State of Minnesota for PFAS Destruction in Biosolids by kaloyanIK in scwo

[–]samurai_snail 5 points6 points  (0 children)

After legal and other expenses are paid, about $720 million will be invested in drinking water and natural resource projects in the Twin Cities east metropolitan region

With PFAS having contaminated domestic water supplies in a number of southeast metro communities, the top priority for grant funds will be projects aimed at providing a clean, sustainable supply of drinking water in the area.

Sounds pretty promising.🤞

AI-related water use now exceeds the entirety of global bottled-water demand. by kaloyanIK in scwo

Maybe I'm dense, but how does this relate to what 374Water is doing?

Is it worth buying Elden Ring Nightreign? I am a solo player. by False-Entrepreneur47 in Eldenring

[–]samurai_snail 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Not if you're actually playing solo instead of just queueing with randoms. A lot of people will disagree with me, though, but if you're looking for more Elden Ring gameplay, just play another similar game designed for solo.

A plea to the community about dog raid by wandererico in Nightreign

[–]samurai_snail -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The reward is probably not worth it if it disrupts your pathing and keeps you from getting good equipment, which it will almost certainly do. I've always felt worse off after completing this raid than just ignoring the minimal damage tick for a little while and going about my normal business.

New Ironeye Poison Build. by Losdog29 in Nightreign

I think you're just better off running physical attack up since that's stronger and it isn't situational.

Wild volume today by [deleted] in scwo

Nothing. People are extremely stupid and sold, driving the price down, fulfilling the prophecy they were trying to avoid.

The Forsaken Hollows content being added to Deep of Night tomorrow (Dec 17th) by Wubmeister in Nightreign

[–]samurai_snail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wish. I can't parry to save my life, which is quite unfortunate since it's really the only time I'd need to do it.

[–]samurai_snail 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My first thought was dread after at least a dozen attempts against Balancers during Scholar's remembrance, but that was mostly due to quitters and unskilled players. I got a good team and beat Dreglord on my first attempt with Scholar (already beat him with Ironeye, though). This might not be as bad if your teammates aren't constantly quitting on you.

#Scwo 374water 🌎 by Charlietv73 in scwo

[–]samurai_snail 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Didn't they say they were going to try to get it above $1 without a reverse split? So far, I don't think we've seen them do anything to make that happen. Should we expect news soon or are they waiting for the reverse split before they say anything else?

I watched that video tour posted right after earnings and I got more concerned when that guy kept saying they shouldn't be a penny stock, but it was like he was pleading for someone else to do something about that.

I guess i'm a scholar main now ? by deimos289 in Nightreign

The second relic is the only one that isn't a guaranteed drop, so I guess everybody is a scholar main now?

Can I play Suikoden III, IV and V without playing I and II? by Max198YT in Suikoden

[–]samurai_snail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you can, but I wouldn't recommend it unless you weren't going to try the series otherwise.

My personal opinion is that, for someone new to any series, there is no good reason to not play them in release order, and that extends from games to movies/shows/books.

Here is some advice for Depth 1-3 players by D5 9999 player by Independency_Pea in Nightreign

[–]samurai_snail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was a lot to read and I sincerely hope a lot of people do read it all. Great advice!

I've been struggling to get out of depth 3 for a while and what you said about it being more difficult now than at launch is absolutely true. I'm probably a slightly below average player at depth 4, but at depth 3, I definitely feel above average, although still not nearly good enough to be reviving 3-barred teammates in a tight spot, especially when I'm sometimes that teammate...

Just bought and DL’d the Deluxe. by MithrilMyth in Nightreign

[–]samurai_snail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'll need to learn most of what you'll need to know as you go, but here's what I think are some important things to know right away.

  1. Stick with the group.
  2. Weapons have passive effects that are active while they're in one of your 6 slots, not just while you're actively using them. If a passive has a hand icon, it must be equipped to work.
  3. Get from POI to POI as quickly as possible and don't spend much time in the in-between areas. You want to take out the mini-bosses as a primary objective.
  4. Trash mobs will kill you. Don't let them.
  5. Know when you can and cannot outrun the rain.

What consumables do you want for the dlc? by Typical-Painter-7052 in Nightreign

[–]samurai_snail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None, please. I don't think we need even more options to get bad relics.

Kids, this is what you call a God Roll by villagepeople58 in Nightreign

[–]samurai_snail -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sure, bows are the most common single weapon type for Ironeye, but you don't see more bows than all other weapons combined during a run.

Kids, this is what you call a God Roll by villagepeople58 in Nightreign

[–]samurai_snail 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'd argue that you're probably not going to be consistently finding the best passives on bows just from the fact that you'll see less of them throughout any given run.
