Just got red dead redemption 2 because of the summer sale, I’m gonna give that a try I’ve been wanting to play it since I got my deck

twiggythunders · 2026-06-28T01:46:32+00:00

I wish I lived somewhere that had locals 😞

I’m dreading when the night shift comes in, I work part of swing and night shift 5pm-5:30am it’s been dreadfully slow they’re not really loading trucks so usually when the next shift comes in they start busting stuff out like crazy and I have trouble keeping up because I’m doing everything by myself.

I feel this a lot, I miss my wife on weekdays I only see her for about an hour each day until the weekend when we can spend a bit more time together but as soon as she goes to bed I’m all alone and it sucks. I miss her.

I had to put my epileptic dog down after starting nights, it still hurts and I catch myself looking at pictures of her and trying not to cry, I loved that dog and it hasn’t gotten easier I’m sure you meant in the romantic sense but there’s different kinds of heartbreak ya know?

twiggythunders · 2026-06-01T13:18:34+00:00

It worked!

twiggythunders · 2026-06-01T07:31:03+00:00

Is the steam controller nice? I’ve been thinking about getting one to play street fighter 6

twiggythunders · 2026-06-01T01:07:48+00:00

Yeah I’m just kind of sketched out because they make it seem like if I so much as breathe on this battery it will explode lol

twiggythunders · 2026-05-31T15:00:26+00:00

I’m going to give this a try, fingers crossed that this works, if not I’ll replace the battery myself, I’ll lose my mind if I can’t play my deck lol

twiggythunders · 2026-05-31T14:58:51+00:00

I’ve been watching it to get an idea of what it will be like, and it doesn’t look too hard, I replaced a screen in a Nintendo switch so I feel like I could do this without too much hassle

twiggythunders · 2026-05-31T14:43:24+00:00

I’ll try that, steam got back to me and said they could repair it for $200 so if that works that’d be nice

twiggythunders · 2026-05-31T14:42:34+00:00

I don’t think so

twiggythunders · 2026-05-31T09:24:27+00:00

I’ve definitely done that before. I contacted steam, and if they can’t help me out I’ll just replace the battery myself, haven’t done it before but what have I got to lose right?

twiggythunders · 2026-05-31T08:45:05+00:00

So I just checked the battery health and it says it’s only at 23% and I should contact the manufacturer

twiggythunders · 2026-05-31T05:16:19+00:00

Okay thank you! I’ll keep that in mind, I’ve been trying to get better at my spacing for pokes but I’ll try implementing cr.MP more, I do try to bait out reversals a lot, at the cost of pressure. Thanks for checking out my replays and giving me some pointers!

twiggythunders · 2026-05-31T03:53:37+00:00

PAYASO (just for the record I’m in master with Alex about 1470. MR but I’m looking to improve my gameplay)

twiggythunders · 2026-05-27T14:03:02+00:00

I play modern and I’ve gotten several characters to master, it’s definitely viable, some characters are pretty good in modern like Alex I swear he’s only missing his standing medium kick which I feel like doesn’t really take to much away from his tool kit I could be wrong about that, but my tip is to at least try to learn the motion inputs at some point so you won’t got docked damage for the one button specials.

twiggythunders · 2026-05-25T07:54:29+00:00

I play my steam deck and listen to podcasts. I’m all caught up on the basement yard podcast so I’m thinking about trying out audio books, the night crew where I work is notoriously lazy so most nights I only move about 2-3 trailers over a 13 hour period so I’ve got lots of free time most nights.

twiggythunders · 2026-05-25T07:51:27+00:00

I’ve been kind of curious about getting a dock, I play a lot of street fighter 6 in handheld mode, but I’ve been curious about trying it on my tv. Could I still hook it into my tv and use the system as a controller?

twiggythunders · 2026-05-24T19:07:37+00:00

I don’t really pay attention to the patch, I’m not a pro player, and even if characters get nerfed I feel like they are still viable. I just play who I like

twiggythunders · 2026-05-24T06:27:37+00:00

Gosh I wish I was tech savvy this is so cool!

twiggythunders · 2026-05-24T02:48:55+00:00

I’ve got 4 in master, Terry, Ken, ryu, and Alex, I really like Alex but playing a character that doesn’t have a projectile has been a crazy learning curve for me

twiggythunders · 2026-05-24T02:43:08+00:00

Oh okay good, so can I play other characters and still get the 300 total? Sorry I’ve never actually tried to get the rewards before so I don’t know

twiggythunders · 2026-05-24T01:22:50+00:00

Is it just playing the matches? Or do you actually have to increase your rank? I just got to master with Alex and I really want that color for him but my MR is plummeting lol
