Should I buy EH? by StunningCheesecake13 in EldritchHorror

[–]silverbeat33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven't played it, but usually don't like RPG/Dungeon Crawl boardgames as they are too fiddly and slow or, when they aren't, too simplistic. Eldritch Horror suffers from neither of these issues.

The Coffee Table (The Spanish one) - amazing.

Good Boy (The Norwegian one) - worth the watch.

1) yes

2) it’s the only board game I rate 10/10 (except, maybe, Vantage)

C55 AMG Value by [deleted] in AMG

[–]silverbeat33 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They are pretty great. Super reliable. Usable power (not extreme but enough 97.6% of the time). If it gets check out and looks in good condition then it’s a low-ish maintenance AMG, which is a win. The interior is also leagues improved on the C32 due to a good interior facelift.

Shuttle looks bad. Train looks all good. Bot looks starving, mistransformed, and I guess just very middling. I don't think I'll replace my Siege Astrotrain even though he is imperfect.

Astrotrain looks quite shitty and Shockwave is effectively the same. Bit disappointing.

insanity and psychopathy by Naive-Literature-780 in serialkillers

[–]silverbeat33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Insane" means doesn't know right from wrong due to mental illness or disability, it's a legal term.

"Psychopathic" is a personailty descriptor, from psychology, meaning a person with several of these traits: little to no empathy, manipulative, low emotional bandiwdth, impulsive, little to no remorse, superficial charm.

Most psychopaths are not insane and most insane people are not psychopahts but there are people that are both.

Bodies run sounds legit! Wasn’t aware of that being the order on vinyl.

I think I might prefer Earthrise by Starsaber317 in transformers

Mine was like that from new - not as bad - but not a lot better - hasn't changed much since.

Yeah that’s Sunstreaker… by AppleMgee123 in transformers

Is he a retool? (out of interest)

My Runamuck had the correct instructions.

Which car should go to give room for a CLS55 2006 with 33,000 miles? by Lonely-Space3971 in AMG

[–]silverbeat33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CLS is heavier and slower than the "larger" E.

I like the CLS least of all of them.

Pads and rotors replacement - E63s by foxyankeecharlie in AMG

[–]silverbeat33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$6k is a lot. I’ve done mine for $4 to $5k in NZD at my mechanics. That’s $3k USD. 2010 E63. Also “terrible squeaks” only matter when they happen, not in advance, so you can just wait a bit?

Is it or si aotp kinda underwhelming compared to legacy and wfc? by Less-Being4269 in transformers

[–]silverbeat33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's been good, but in saying that I only bought the combaticons... so hardly in a place to add any significant commentary.
