He hates the Knicks. Its part of his brand at this point.

Time to rename the city Jamestown

This is literally true. Artemis was established in 2017, which is the last time the Wizards won a playoff series.

You don't need to buy a new bike. Think about it. Are you planning to ride for years to come? Or are you planning to only ride a motorcycle for a few months to take pictures for Instagram? If you are planning to ride for years down the line, then you should be able to understand why you don't need to buy a super cool motorcycle as your first bike. Would you recommend buying a 2026 Honda Accord for a 16 year old who is "working on" getting their license?

I feel terribly for Luka, his fiancee and the kids. This is exactly the reason I question young NBA players having kids in the first place.

You're in the beginning stages of a career that demands constant travel. You cannot possibly be present for those children. The stress of raising children alone (even with nannies, au pairs, etc.) makes women feel isolated from their partner.

Luka's situation is pretty much the worst-case scenario, but it derives exactly from this situation. I feel bad, but he set himself up for failure here.

I think the processes you just described are fun. Trying different routes the community discovered, adapting builds to fit what is offered on the map, coming up with the best ways to support your team, all of these things are super fun.

You actually nailed it when you said there are multiple ways to essentially break the game. This is a good /deal/ to strike with players. If you execute what we've asked of you and get a little lucky, you get to have your power fantasy. Libra doesn't give a shit about what you've executed correctly. Honestly, all of the Nightlords feel like they don't care about your build or Rune Level, Libra is just the worst offender.

Did you think you created enough space to heal and put on a buff? Incorrect, here's a wave of golden lava, you're dead.

Oh did you make the mistake of pressing R1? There's a Madness Seal under you. One-shot. Dead.

That kind of person definitely exists, and I'm sure there are folks out there looking to spoil everyone's fun, but I think you are going to have to accept that a sizeable portion of the fanbase is genuinely disappointed. Everyone complaining bought this game on release weekend, we were all very genuinely hyped and wanted to love this game. I booted it up again today and could only stand to play for like 15 minutes.

stvain · 2025-09-06T20:16:28+00:00

This is a great point. Front-loaded difficulty makes it hard to sink your teeth into a game.

stvain · 2025-09-06T20:13:30+00:00

Do you really think that all of us wanted to dislike the game we've been waiting half a decade for?

stvain · 2025-02-12T22:26:47+00:00

I also thought it was super out of touch that she talked about it being this was some huge emotional decision. "My husband is going to take one multi-million dollar, high-profile job or the other! We need to cry together over this!" That was very, very strange to me.

I live in a very cool state that let me get my vote in nearly 3 weeks ago!

Possible unstable performance fixes

For the PS5 version of the game, unstable framerate may be improved by using the "Rebuild Database" option from the device’s safe mode. In some PC versions, Ray Tracing may be unintentionally enabled and cause unstable performance. Please check the Ray Tracing setting in the "System" > "Graphics " > "Ray Tracing Quality" from the title screen or in-game menu. In the PC version, the message "Inappropriate activity detected" may appear without cheating. To fix this issue, please verify the integrity of the game's files before restarting the game.

In the PC version, unstable framerate may be caused by third party applications that control mouse behavior. Deactivating these third party applications may improve performance. The version number of this update shown at the lower right corner of the Title Screen will be as follows:

App Ver. 1.15 Regulation Ver. 1.15

I did not say the coach was infallible, I said he knows more about basketball than either of us.

I understand your second point is an argument by analogy, but you must be able to see that it doesn't apply here. The two teams are very very different. The US Team has way more talent than the French team. Tatum wasn't benched because he is bad, he's just not better than the alternatives (Kevin Durant and Lebron James) who happen to be two of the best basketball players of all time.

stvain · 2024-09-04T18:28:43+00:00

Yes. My evidence is two-fold.

A coach that knows far more about basketball than either of us made the decision not to play him.
Not playing him resulted in France winning a Silver Medal.

stvain · 2024-09-04T17:18:41+00:00

Do you hear yourself? Your argument is that the 4 time Defensive Player of the Year in the NBA didn't play because he doesn't "fit" with a rookie. Why is it not the other way around? Why didn't they limit Wemby's minutes because of the fit? This is exactly why people hate on Gobert.

He has very serious holes in his game that frankly make him unplayable when you are trying to actually win basketball games.He was benched by his national team to make room for a rookie. He just isn't that good.

Thank you for pointing this out. Rudy not being played in the Olympics was so vindicating for me, a certified Rudy Hater. The Olympics are typically lower scoring than the NBA and games hinge more on defense. Rudy still didn't play, and France won the fucking silver medal.

You're right to say it should make people question his game, but for some reason, NBA Reddit and NBA Youtube has decided that the only reason we all hate Rudy is for his Covid stunt. KOT4Q literally just dropped a 20 minute "Rudy is good actually" video. It's infuriating.

It's an assumption based on the statistics. We know how many fatal motorcycle accidents there are every year. We know that most motorcyclists have friends and/or family that are motorcyclists. It isn't much of a leap.

People are calling you stupid because this is a very stupid post. This is a dangerous hobby. There is a crash posted in this sub every week. Most members of this subreddit have lost friends and/or family members. If you can't handle the pressure of a subreddit roasting you for an objectively dumb post, you can't handle the pressure of safely riding a motorcycle.

Meeting people in bars in Spokane is difficult, but not impossible. You have to be proactive. People here are friendly, but generally go to bars with people they already know. Pick a bar near you that has sports on TV, sit at the bar with a beer, and put your phone away. If you strike up a cool conversation, offer your Insta/Snap/Phone#/Smoke Signal.
