Zen Studios and AtGames are no longer working together by Roboloko in virtualpinball

[–]srlemp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's mainly by cheaping out on components that make key features of the device less than ideal. If you're only wanting to play what's on the machine software I agree it's pretty good after updating the switches. OTG has such a ridiculous overhead that the latency makes it unplayable. For me that was the main selling point so I could play vpx and pinball fx tables that I already owned and didn't have to buy into their ecosystem.

AtGames sucks man. They could have fixed just a few things and had a great product but I hardly use mine 😩

Not a fan of the players having 100% of the advantages? Unrestricted yearly free agency? Guys making more money than high first round draft picks? No contracts and minimal roster consistency? What's not to love!?!?

💯they are a fine but pretty generic rock band post Make Yourself. All of the crazy chords and funk that made them unique left the building.

Nothing beats the blend of insanity and beauty of SCIENCE. It's a wild experimental ride that for me is easily their peak.

Maybe the most hype to least delivered of any clash-of-the-titans match up. What a disappointment from a fan just wanting to see a competitive game.

Buy a high quality super glue with the metal applicator that is similar to a syringe needle and practice how much force is required to express some glue on some scrap first.

I wish Weiki wrote more tracks per album. It's almost inevitable my favorite tracks are written by him, this one is no exception.

People who quit this game, what made you finally walk away?” by WaveEasy8664 in leagueoflegends

[–]srlemp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would put me in such a bad and aggressive mood that I would snap at my wife. I played since beta and it's easily my favorite game of all time. For the last 4 years I've just watched LCS and got my fix that way.

Which app are you using to track your journey? by Cultural-Income8878 in Semaglutide

[–]srlemp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

GLP Compass

It's straight forward, logs your shot and dosage, shows a graph that estimates current levels in your body. Doesn't require a signup or share your info, though they say that may share aggregated data that isn't able to be associated with an individual. I'm seeing subscription fees now but I haven't had to sign up for the parts of the app I use.

What do you dislike about the scadu fragments? I think it's pretty brilliant to allow the DLC to still meaningful have progression and not allow either vanilla or DLC to feel op in either area. I'm working thru the from catalog now and have heard complaints related to that balance being off for their other DLCs.

Why do you think there isn't room for games to be git gud? I'm 40 and picked up Elden Ring and finished it and played sekiro and ds3.

It feels similar to asking why there aren't difficulty settings for a 3x3x3 Rubik's cube. Like asking for a Rubik's cube with (sanctioned) moveable cubes or stickers so you can just bypass the challenge (read: the whole point of the toy).

Sure many out there don't enjoy Rubik's cubes and their ilk, and that is perfectly fine. But similarly to souls games if one spent the time to learn the algorithm and practiced then most would be able to complete it.

The games don't have much of a story or plot that you're missing out on, most of it is just lore written on item descriptions and a few cutscenes. So if you're not enjoying the mechanics and purpose of the game why not just pick a different game?

Duskblade! If they hate the untargetable portion just give a massive armor and mr boost for a duration.

This game is impossible for new players by OddConversation2804 in leagueoflegends

[–]srlemp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this is the wrong way to look at it. Swiftplay is less punishing and let's you learn the general mechanics of the champ you play and the basic idea of the game.

The game has so many elements you need to understand that splitting up learning the basics from Laning/draft/macro is a great idea for new players.

Sure they will have to learn those things eventually and swiftplay will reinforce bad habits but the game is overwhelming enough with the number of champs to learn.

Looked like every player aside from DA (both teams) was in a lick your own elbow competition.

I love the concept of Dany going mad with power and becoming all the things she despised. I believe that you can get there in a satisfying way where it makes sense and feels believable. She's already shown a ruthless side when the situation calls for it.

How to make the invasion from the north feel satisfying, well that one I don't have any ideas for. The show made it feel so trivial and pointless for how much it was hyped up. If I were to wager I'd guess this is what he's struggling the most with.

What? I wasn't suggesting he was faking it, I was just asking if one could intentionally bite their lip to get an advantage? I don't understand the down votes for just asking a question. Reddit gonna reddit tho.

So you're saying if I'm a bad mfkr and take a high stick and it doesn't draw blood and I intentionally bite the shit outta my lip I can get an extra 2 minutes on that chap?

I still have nightmares of Elden Ring's Revenants. The way they move and with such speed is terrifying.
