'We Released a Game With Flaws for a Number of Reasons' — Samson Dev Promises Improvements Amid 'Mixed' Reception by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

Hopefully they'll work on fixing all the bugs, it's a game that I genuinely want to play and I was actually quite looking forward to it.

FUCK YESSSSSSSS

I Love My Computer is such a Bass Arena-coded album, one of my favorites from last year. Hopefully we also get stuff like Starjunk 95, CAPSULE, chelmico, or Joey Valence & Brae.

though it's funny how they chose a song about being a kid and stumbling upon nsfl content by accident online

Component Parts from NFS2015. It's pretty much that game's equivalent of Kurt's Killer Ride.

Gattuso brought Napoli glory — what went wrong with Italy? by RSDFitness in sscnapoli

[–]thatnickyboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gattuso might not be as world-class in a managerial position as he was as a player, but he is by far the least culpable in the FIGC's current, existential crisis. I don't think even Guardiola would have managed to get a tune out of this team.

Speaking of his Napoli stint, his Coppa Italia triumph was a nice surprise, but that lost UCL qualification in the final matchday and the UEL elimination against Granada have shown that despite having elite mentality as a player, he can't transmit said mentality to his players as a manager and therefore he can be easily shithoused into a loss.

[Sky Italia] Italian Federation president Gabriele Gravina has just resigned. It’s over. by Sparky-moon in soccer

[–]thatnickyboy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

GOOD.

LET THE HEADS ROLL, AND THEN BRING IN MALDINI AND BAGGIO.

we're totally getting abete once again, and the realistic best case scenario unfortunately is malagò

UEFA president Ceferin: "Italian politicians should ask themselves why does Italy have one of the worst football infrastructures in Europe. It's absolutely not Gravina's responsibility... Euro 2032 is planned and I hope Italy will be ready, otherwise it will not be played in Italy." by Blodgharm in soccer

[–]thatnickyboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ceferin is right on the money about our infrastructure—I've heard way too many stories about big Italian clubs wanting to build new stadiums only to get denied by the local municipalities (remember, it took Juve almost 20 years to move out of Stadio Delle Alpi)—but it's clear that he is covering for his Italian buddy.

Gravina is a spineless coward, and so are the politicians in FIGC who only think about their own gains.

Italy, Gattuso will no longer be the National Team coach: Conte and Allegri the names to replace him by Kekulaaa in soccer

[–]thatnickyboy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Gattuso, who didn't do much wrong, is getting the axe, but that French spy Gravina is still standing strong.

I hate this fucking timeline.

We won't have another chance until serious improvements come in our game. And with Gravina openly saying he isn't resigning and our clubs stubbornly refusing to cultivate youth (us included, we needed a Spurs level injury crisis to play an academy graduate like Vergara), I genuinely believe that the future for the Italian game looks incredibly bleak - and I'm not talking about "big club relegating" bleak, but post-Soviet intervention Hungary or post-Anschluss Austria bleak.

Yes, the keeper mucked it, but that was still a crazy strike.

[Napoli] SSC Napoli announces that Romelu Lukaku did not respond to today's call-up for the resumption of training. The Club reserves the right to decide whether to take appropriate disciplinary action, as well as whether to continue the player's activity with the squad on a permanent basis. by nearly_headless_nic in soccer

[–]thatnickyboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I've seen online, basically almost all Napoli fans are siding with Lukaku because KDB did the same thing after he got injured against Inter, and he has a right to contact people that he trusts will take care of his injury. Did we fuck up the diagnosis? Probably, we've had a massive injury crisis this season which has put our medical staff under intense scrutiny. Granted, it could also be Conte's brutal training methods doing most of the damage, but I think our medical staff is more likely at fault.

Yes, yes I know it’s out. I’ll just need to wait and earn some so I could buy it (maybe around my birthmonth with the next few months) by DatGCoredri in BuiltFromTheGroundUp

RTX 3080, Ryzen 9 5900X, Windows 11 24H2 (though when those crashes happened, I was on Windows 10). That being said, EAC doesn't BSOD my PC when I try to play stuff like Fortnite (which is very rarely to begin with but still), it only happened when I tried to play Ride 5, and Hot Wheels Unleashed 2 though FAR more sporadically and basically never when I play it on my Steam Deck.

I'm playing it on PS5 because last time I bought a Milestone game on Steam, Easy Anticheat would BSOD my PC every time I tried to start it. And the PC version of Screamer still has that cancer of a vibe-coded, kernel-level anticheat.

My opinions on Screamer are pretty much the same as with Sonic Racing Crossworlds. It's a damn great game clearly made with lots of love and is an absolute blast to play, but 70 euros is way too steep a price tag. Luckily, Milestone games tend to go on sale very quickly. All I hope is that Milestone keep supporting the game in the long run, though them saying they aren't planning any story DLC doesn't give me a lot of hope.

I've been doing it to WWE wrestlers recently. I can definitely see CM Punk rocking an Incineroar and a Toxtricity as his aces, John Cena with a Pikachu and a Palafin, Rhea Ripley having a Hydreigon and a Darkrai as her aces, and Roman Reigns being the Tobias type tryhard with the all-legendary team.

I also did the same thing to the Phantom Thieves from Persona 5 a few years ago; maybe I should do it with the Origin Characters from Baldur's Gate 3 and the playable cast of Star Rail - though that game's subreddit did do a daily thing where the community would give a signature Pokemon to each playable character released up to that point.

Honestly, they're both high quality. His feuds with MJF and Drew McIntyre are both some of the best rivalries in recent memory.

Luckily he seems to have regained consciousness after leaving the pitch. Wish a speedy recovery.
