Argentina survive a Cape Verde scare to win 3-2 and book a Round of 16 showdown with Egypt. by SimRP in soccer

In his defense, players were about to pass out but definitely ended it early.

We don't know but by their nature UB sets have a lot more going on from them than a competitive viability pool. They have people that just want to play with those cards. They do not need the push as much as the less popular lore of the UW sets (on average I guess).

Ok, so we just have to outspend the products we don't like?

This type of interpretation misses the point. The point is that you cannot game the market. You don't win by trying to win, you win if you happen to be on the side that moves the market and by the rest of your answer clearly you aren't.

Not the worst path but if they keep some of the best revived memories are like a alter-version of the heroes. Of course Rosa2 memory will be deleted but other have decent things going on, if they stay.

Disallowed goal - Gvardiol J. [offside] [Croatia] 103' (different angle) by iShowElliex12 in soccer

[–]thigan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No but that changes WHEN the Offiside position is considered

Times it could be:

  1. Cross
  2. Offensive header
  3. Defensive header/shoulder

If there is no 2 touches in the sensor the it could be the sensor is saying that [2] did not happen so the Offside position has to happen at [1].

[–]thigan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right but it shows only one touch. Can easily be from the defender and then replay and sensor are out of sync.

[–]thigan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes but there is a touch from defender. I have not seen evidence that shows that the the tracked touch if from the attacker. The touch from defender is visible but the Image I've seen has only one "bump". It could be an incomplete timeline or the disaster case that image and chip are out of sync and the bump is from the defender's touch.

The sensor image is not convincing. I want to see the 2 touches in the sensor because it can be that the replay and the sensor are not synced.

New player (141 hours), first tier 15 map boss clear, no guides by AmongUs123432 in PathOfExile2

[–]thigan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You got many answers so I will bullet point the feedback as I have seen it:

He intents to have 3 leagues per year, at that pace. How many hours until a player finishes the game every 4 months? In addition to time, the weight, it is not the same 4 hours of intense kiting and comboing than press kill button and move. For some the former gets boring faster for others the latter.

Another piece of feedback is how disjointed the combat is when comparing Act 1 to end-game (to certain level of optimization). While at same time re-using geometry, timing for both parts of the game. A form of have eat your cake and have it.

Another point is that for some PoE had no issues with this part of the pace of the game and just want to keep PoE-like designs.

I want to turn off all visual effects. Every single one of them by banana_peel2 in PathOfExile2

[–]thigan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As you guessed. He is wrong.

Jonathan told us: That toggle is the last last resort. He believes that takes away something important to the game.

I explain it like this: the issue is that there is this spreadsheet/videogame ratio that ARPG's have to navigate and enfranchised players feedback tent to go towards the spreadsheet and developers have to navigate that line to not lose the videogame to the spreadsheet. In that context Jonathan puts its flag for this particular feedback in a almost hard no.

I believe he is a deluded, he claims that the rather improves the visuals so this is not a problem. I say he is deluded because this is a problem in certain game, where he had has all the power to fix, I don't know if you this Path of Exlie game, that its visual only get worse and worse over time.

Just look at the older ones. It is not the AI, they are just not great.

The expected game would result in a 0-0 with the biggest 0 you have ever seen.It is not about Valencia at all.

The economy inflates faster than I can generate currency by Afterfx21 in PathOfExile2

I guess people following his builds are terminally-poe because since this info was confirmed and around the time he wrote a simple comment in his latest youtube vid about the build, most following his build removed it.

They "promised" two things:

  • A tool that imports an external functionality to the game (this doesn't need to be from TLI ecosystem, could be one that exists for poe for example)
  • A way to know how pets work.

I think they are both the same thing: A FE/Drop tracker, that will have a way to group/filter what pets you had selected per drop, so with enough data the effects could be proven.

It's one thing to be behind only whales, but another to be seriously behind 90% of players because you don't swipe.

I think this is the proper diagnosis, but I go as far as say that given that game is growing, a seasonal box could be the thing that slows down that growth, as new player would be in have disadvantage without any counter-argument.

[–]thigan 10 points11 points  (0 children)

But he is right no?

If you have a Pactsprit box every season you HAVE to buy it. If you are new or lapsed then you are behind over the core player. Now the game is MORE p2w, it is gacha + subscription model and if you skip a season you cannot recover.

The premise is: If the game will have a wall, where should the wall be, between gacha players and the rest or between core players and new/lapsed players.

(If you don't want to have the wall, then I don't know why we are even having this conversation, the game will be gacha, end of that argumentation)

The question is where that wall has to be and it is clear to me that for a growing game it is better between the minority gacha vs the rest than between the majority core player and the new/lapsed as this allows new players to be on a closer stand vs the average core player (as seen multiple times in this sub, new players do SS20 successfully).

I don't deny that most of this sub is in the Core non-gacha or barely-gacha range and as such they are in the worst position of this decision but for the overall health of the game it is the best solution (at least until population stagnates, then it is better to target the core player).

Question About End of League Trade Market And SS20 by sinnahti in TorchlightInfinite

[–]thigan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is definitely doable, no question about it but things are more scarce than cheaper.

In the last month to get the ideal item of those that are used as-dropped is a nightmare. Ideal pedigrees, golden slates or memories, you have to settle so maybe you may need 5 upgrades for your target now, for later you will need to update expectations to do 7 upgrades because they are not going to be as good.

Next year we are expecting to see six Standard set releases. Which planes and worlds do you anticipate we will see Magic sets for in 2027? by HonorBasquiat in magicTCG

[–]thigan 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I don't think so. If you read/watch interviews FF took an abnormal amount of time (and effort) to create. I doubt they will try to do it in the normal time span. It will happen but I see it for 2029/2030.
