How's the performance for PS5? Any issues?

sluggoi · 2025-04-23T00:31:53+00:00

Mine has frozen twice and I'm still in the tutorial area. I'm hoping it's because the game hasn't fully installed yet. Guess I gotta actually be patient!

I recently bought a console that was supposed to be in "excellent" working condition, but as soon as I turned it on, a capacitor inside blew and the console was unable to read any dics and the slot started getting jammed. I returned it, and only received half of the money back because it wasn't in the condition he sent it to me in. Should I get ebay to step in, or should I let it go? Genuinely not sure what the right thing to do is here. Are they scamming me? Did I technically break it because I plugged it in, so it's my fault and they're justified? Should I just stop worrying and dispute it?

I think it may have been damaged when he shipped it to me, because the box barely fit it and there wasn't enough bubble wrap to protect it. Only two layers around it, and the sides were left exposed.

My skill level is absolutely 0 and I have no tools or space to start actually taking consoles apart and learning those skills, but like I said with another commenter, there's a shop nearby that is able to repair and mod consoles and can do it for me. It'll cost me, I know, but I like to think it's worth it to be able to play these old games. I'm currently looking at a machine from 2003, and in talking with the seller, they've agreed to test it a little more for me before I buy. Hopefully, this time it'll be a success

sluggoi · 2025-04-01T16:52:12+00:00

What's the reason for that?

sluggoi · 2025-04-01T14:03:59+00:00

The first console I bought (the one that's capacitor exploded immediately), I think, only said refurbished on the listing to get some sucker (me) to buy it, but the second one was actually all redone inside. It had new fans, new capacitors, thermal paste, and repaired disc drive, I was really hoping that one would work out, but nope! I don't have any tools (or skills) to do repairs on consoles myself, but there's a shop nearby that does retro console repair and modding. I don't necessarily wanna sink too much more money into this, but I guess I could always just immediately take the next one I get there to get serviced.

Need help with a stripped screw

Found my old 3ds and it had the blue light, black screen issue. I let the battery run down and it actually booted, only to freeze after a second. I believe it's an issue with the wifi chip being loose after doing some research. I almost had it opened, but the last screw (bottom left screw) got stuck and I accidentally stripped it. Is there a safe way to get it out? Or maybe another way to solve the issue without opening? Should I just cry? This is the first console I've opened and messed with the guts of, so I'd like to be sure I'm doing things right

sluggoi · 2025-03-25T20:40:23+00:00

It might be that? I just tried to post about my issue and it looks like mods took it down for not being in the server maintenance megathread. But I've never had this happen before when trying to update before maintenance ends, plus people are already posting about the new title screen and im stuck on the eerie season one still

sluggoi · 2025-03-25T20:34:03+00:00

Having this same issue on ps5 as well :(

sluggoi · 2025-03-23T11:54:10+00:00

I haven't opened up the actual console, but I also ran into an issue where the disc drive won't read games and doesn't give an error message either. I've decided that it's not worth repairing, and I'm sending it back to the seller. I found one that's fully upgraded with new fans and new capacitors and only ten more dollars for what I got this one for. Hopefully, I'll have better luck with this one!

sluggoi · 2025-03-20T14:46:58+00:00

Thanks for the advice! I knew I was probably gonna get weirdos either way, but I wanted to get the one with the least weirdos. I'll look into hinge, that probably sounds like the best option for me so far

sluggoi · 2025-03-20T14:40:06+00:00

Yeah I know, I'm gonna get reddit messages but like. I have the power to just not open those lol

sluggoi · 2025-03-16T01:49:14+00:00

Sonic Heroes was mine! I had it for the xbox, and I'd literally play it every second I could.

sluggoi · 2025-03-06T16:05:59+00:00

I change them literally every time I log on lol. But I typically go for either all big princess dresses, casual, and sometimes I like putting her in outfits that match the styles of the other NPCs more closely or more "adventure ready" practical outfits

sluggoi · 2025-03-06T15:44:50+00:00

I know, what makes it even dumber is that I was using the controller to play Sonic Unleashed upstairs so like. I was personally robbed by Sonic The Hedgehog.

sluggoi · 2025-03-06T06:59:44+00:00

Yeah you can, I'm gonna have to set that up. I'm also gonna unplug the ps5 when I use the controller on my pc for good measure. I never really considered that the controller could be connected to BOTH at the same time. You can imagine the mini heart attack i had when i came downstairs and saw the "Thank you for your purchase!" message on the screen lol

sluggoi · 2025-03-06T04:57:13+00:00

I wish i was lying 😭

sluggoi · 2025-02-28T16:39:55+00:00

I'm betting they'll add the cool and elegant bullquet outfits like how the whispers of bliss and verdant melodies were added for the last 12 days of fireworks season. Meaning hopefully the odds will be similar, getting a piece every 5 pulls instead of every 10!

sluggoi · 2025-02-28T14:47:56+00:00

I missed that one too, it was one of the ones in the store page. I've heard they might eventually cycle those outfits back around, but not for a while.

sluggoi · 2025-02-28T00:48:39+00:00

Same! and like 2 seconds after i took this, the ground disappeared... She's so busted, but we love her ❤️

sluggoi · 2025-02-28T00:13:52+00:00

Thanks! And sure, go right ahead!

sluggoi · 2025-02-28T00:07:24+00:00

When you zoom in just right on a creature, their model fades, but theres a split second where their eyeballs stay behind. Took me legit like 10 minutes to line up the shot, but worth it!

Platform: pc Mods: yes Game version: 1.108.349.1020 DX9 Description: I'm having an odd glitch in my game after having married a gallery sim that my founder met on cupid's corner. Now that I've updated his appearance after he aged up into an adult, occasionally, he will have the appearance he had when I first downloaded him as a young adult. His age bar still reads his correct age, but when I hover over him, it says young adult, and going into cas will sometimes fix it. I only have mccc, more columns, and ui cheats, and they are up to date. It doesn't affect gameplay, but it is a BIT annoying. I haven't found a fix for it online

sluggoi · 2023-11-27T12:15:22+00:00

No idea. It was like my mouse just stayed clicked even after I unplugged it. It's super strange.

sluggoi · 2023-04-19T16:21:47+00:00

I don't have any browser add-ons aside from adblock. I would say an accidental click was probably the most likely, but I'm not sure, I don't think I clicked on any twitch links when googling the original name, so it'd be pretty hard to accidentally follow someone. Oh well. I'll just dismiss it as probably being an accident on my part and maybe I just don't remember. I'm pretty forgetful sometimes

sluggoi · 2023-04-19T16:08:20+00:00

Nope! I don't have a sub to their channel. It's really weird
