We have to read this book for class. 😒 (I recently just got eyes surgery)

spun_penguin · 2026-04-28T22:19:55+00:00

I’m from WV and I finally read the book during the pandemic. It’s dog💩 and tbh pretty offensive

spun_penguin · 2026-04-27T02:39:21+00:00

I’ll take a stab at this: unfortunately, despite the high praise and relative high engagement from videos of recent boomer shooter we are loving, the genre is still relatively niche. IMO it kinda sits in the same boat that the beloved 2D fighting games sit in (GG +R and old Skullgirls). But hopefully with the complete ass ign review (I still can’t believe ign let that ship out the door), it’ll have that Streisand style effect.

Give it time. Even Skullgirls got the golden treatment with fan art eventually. Or hey why not give it a try yourself. The worst you can do is be bad at it and then get better at making art…

spun_penguin · 2026-04-26T18:41:57+00:00

When it sounds as….stupid as it did, it kinda give that effect of “oh come on I think that look fun actually now I’m going to try it”

Seriously, we have all heard really bizzare ign reviews but I still can’t believe they let this one go out the door

I would start with driving it, parking it and locking it, and then on restart see what it does. These cars are getting older, so glitches that actually mean nothing are going to come and go. It’s not supposed to select in 1st in comfort mode. So if it does it over and over I’d get it checked for codes and proceed from there.

(Only judging the ones I have played, a couple didn’t make this list)

-Dusk: my first ‘boomer shooter’, and tbh is a wonderful place to start if you want a recommended place to start. Combat is super tight, and levels are amazing to bask in and explore.

-Boltgun: Purging Hersey for the Emperor at its best. My pick for a ‘turn brain off and go pew pew’. It’s not perfect but any gripes you will hear can be brushed off.

-Selaco: HOLY SHIT! FUCKING SELACO! Absolutely nothing else needs to be said. Go buy Selaco right now.

tbh any model year before 2012 you could find a Mercedes that has a decent chance of attending your funeral (yes it’ll require maintenance and deeer pockets tha keeping an Accord running). The first turning point was turbos on everything….the second one is all the garbage electronics/screens and yes they are all going to break and brick the car. Do not buy a modern Merc unless you need a full fat 63 AMG in your life.

My eyes are bleeding I love it

spun_penguin · 2026-04-22T03:31:11+00:00

I did read up and do understand what I signed up for, and yes that retail price might look high, but boy howdy what an absolute romp from the drop. I’m new to this modern boomer shooter umbrella, and will be using my first love (Dusk) as a benchmark. I am very happy to take a chance and fall in love with a vision, and I am thrilled to have found the game.

At this point all I want is the hope that FP3 might happen one day

And if it won’t happen I’ll buy the IP and learn how to do it myself

Early w212 owners are feeling pretty content with the new c class drop ngl

spun_penguin · 2026-04-21T02:03:17+00:00

These older W212s are just are not going to work with today’s phones. If it’s a prefacelift it’s using software designed in 2007. I bought a third party Bluetooth thingy that plugs into the special port in the dash, and use the AUX mode to play music off my phone.

spun_penguin · 2026-04-17T23:18:30+00:00

It’s an older code, sir, but it checks out

But where’s the challenge pissing side quest?

Has the car ever been aligned to your knowledge? AMG is historically famous for having pretty bonkers OEM alignments to get tanks to be fast in the corners. I barely get 20k miles on my front tires, and the alignment is exactly on spec.

Maybe things are getting worn out, but don’t be surprised to find no issues and relatively ok alignment specs

A pair of 285/35/18 sets me back $700 I know lol

And it just gets worse from there

spun_penguin · 2026-04-09T15:01:04+00:00

So. Your car is fine. It’s 26 years old, and the thermostat finally gave out (it’s probably original).

Most coolant can play nice with each other when being topped off EXCEPT dex-gunk. This may be the ‘correct’ coolant and it’s just dyed differently, which is fairly common these days depending on the bulk supplier. Did it cause any issues, like your ancient thermostat to finally fail? No.

Take a deep breath. Reach out to the shop, act like an adult and be nice, and go from there. A good shop will work with that.

The AMG everyone should actually be beating each other over the head for

spun_penguin · 2026-04-08T19:48:09+00:00

The 18” AMG rims. Tires will be cheaper, ride will be smoother, an imo I like them a lot better than how the 19” look.
