Played a good chunk yesterday and had more fun than my first session. Switching between pistol, shotgun, and rifle for the Deadeye is a lot of fun even if some of the skills feel super overpowered compared to others.

There's one skill where you flair your guns in a circle and it completely wrecks the entire room on a 10 or 12 second cooldown. I don't have numbers but I'm thinking like 5000 damage as an example. Then there's another skill I unlocked at level 26 where he just fires his gun twice and it does like 400 damage. It has a 6 second cooldown but the power disparity between these two skills is very confusing, especially because the weak skill didn't unlock until 26.

But I'm having a good time so far so whatever. Also this game runs better on my PC than Diablo 2 Resurrected which is pretty sad. That game is optimized so poorly it's painful.

Been playing this and while I don't play deadeye my guess is the other skill has addiitonal effects. Like some skills can counter, some do a lot of break or weakpoint damage (both needed for bosses). Also some skills need upgrades to be useful

Also general echoing of the sentiment of lol to anyone who is loyal to steam or any other platform. The only relevant thing steam has over its competitors is family sharing at this point. EGS generally has the best deals during sales for what it has despite a few missing features (And also gives out a ton of free games). Game Pass PC is just amazing in general though.

Theyre making a killing on market adjustment (literally a transparent markup).

Basically, if there are only 2 or 3 scat packs in the region, our analysts buy them up so we control all the supply.

I work for one of the largest dealer
groups in the country, and we do that.

How does that work? Are you buying stuff at msrp-2000 and selling it for msrp+2000 or something? Or are you buying unpopular models for below msrp? Doesn't seem like a lot of profit margin but maybe you guys are making it on volume. I still wouldn't consider this scalping unless you are doing it to the point of draining the market around you.

No Im talking about buying new cars from other dealerships and wholesale and reselling them.

I have never heard of dealerships buying cars from other dealerships to resell for more. They will usually trade cars to get specific models they want but not to charge a lot more than what they got it for.

Buying from wholesale is basically how retail stores as a whole work.

I mean, thats literally what car dealerships are doing right now.

If you have enough money to pay cash for cars (from private sellers or auctions), you could probably flip them pretty easy.
If your talking about reselling used cars that's completely different and not really what most people mean by scalping. It's also not new in the slighest

Moonrakers is a somewhat recent one for deck building that I enjoyed (only played once or twice so far though)

Incidentally, both have great Tabletop Simulator mods.

Brass Birmingham I've played once and liked it a whole lot, but it is definitely a bit complex. Might be one where it's kind of hard to understand from reading the rules until you actually play then it clicks. I think there's an App you could try to see if you like it? No idea how well made it is though.

Moonrakers seems cool but I don't think you can buy it atm unfortunately.

Good to hear about Brass Birmingham.

Also I just want to mention that I like collecting board games, even if I get a board game and don't love it it's not a huge deal to me (although I do try to get ones that I think I will like)

Try tabletop simulator. For instance Gaia Project is my favorite game of all time but its really heavy and I cant in good faith recommend you buying it without trying it on tabletop first

Playing the game on tabletop simulator is fine, its getting my friends or family to play it with me on tabletop that is the problem.

And yea, that's one i've thought looked cool for in a while but haven't got because I know it will be too complex that I never get to actually play it.

Honestly, going down board game geeks list of top games and trying them out before buying us your best option. There are some up there I love (Gloomhaven, Gaia Project) and some Im really not a fan of (Terraforming mars) and some Im kind of meh on.

That's my typical strategy (well not trying them, it's hard for me to try them before getting them usually) but i've kind of gone through most of the top 100 that looked interesting to me at the first glance, so was hoping some people had recommendations that they like to give me some ideas.

Basically I'm looking for some cool board games to put on a list and give my family so they can get it for me for christmas and was wondering if anything cool game out recently or if there's any other hidden gems out there.

I tried finding a list of best board games of 2021 but it seems like every list seems to have a ton of games that did not come out in 2021 or even recently.

Also I just like talking about board games in general so what's everyone's favorites.

It's hard for me to get buy in to play anything too complex or too long. I personally am a huge fan of worker placement, deck-building and co-op games. I would say some of my favirotes are:
-Lords of the Waterdeep
-Mansions of madness
-Dominion
-Libertalia
-Power Grid
-Puerto Rico
-Agricola
-7 Wonders Duel
-XCom The Board Game

(I like and own a lot more but that gives an idea)

Games I am currently looking at:

-The Quest for El Dorado
-Horrified
-Brass: Birmingham (This one might be slightly more complex than i'm looking for but it's highly rated, curious if anyone here has any opinions on it)

But yea, anyone have any recommendations or any games they just want to talk about/think look interesting

but outside of those very situational uses, I'm not really picky. I just do whatever I feel like at that moment. if I thought about it, I might say that act 2 ? events are overall better than 1/3 because of stuff like the apparitions or that event where you can get jax or transform 2 cards. but I dunno.

I don't think I realized you get different events in each act.

Also the thing I'm curious about is how you treat shops. Do you go for them a lot or only when you have a ton of gold. I typically hit 2 maybe 3 shops a run total.

cooking eggs is definitely under 5 minutes.

Its really easy to make good scrambled eggs with cheese. Just heat the pan with the butter in it over medium-high , crack two eggs into a bowl and mix it. Add a slice of cheese about 15 seconds before you put the eggs in and then just cook it like you normally cook scrambled mixing the cheese in

This is such a weird (bad) list.

It's like they are randomly deciding for each slot whether to get a historically relevant game, a cultural phenomenon game or a good game.

For example how do you justify both:
Botw > OoT
and
Super Mario 64 > Any of the good new mario games

in the same list. Sure you could argue Botw is better than Oot (I don't think it is) but it's definitly not better for it's time period. While that same argument is way easier to make for a modern mario (Galaxy games for example)

Well yeah, but why do investors think Tesla is worth that much? I don't see a way to justify it unless they expect Tesla to basically take over the entire automobile sector. Is something people are seriously expecting, or is the market just irrationally overvaluing them because "it's a tech company"?

It's basically people thinking tesla will get a really large portion of the automobile sector in addition to branching out into other industries (solar, robotaxis, etc).

It's actually pretty common to price in some growth expectations in a stock, but I think some people are just crazy when it comes to Tesla.

Dumb question time: Why is Tesla's value worth so much that Musk is possibly the wealthiest person on Earth? It's obviously a successful company, but I don't get why its market cap is so ridiculously high.

It's worth whatever investors think its worth.

I think its crazily overpriced but it's investors disagree. They are more invested as a looking forward thing though, they think its going to completely dominate the industry in a couple years basically.

Ive also done it, and now I do IT and get paid a million times more and its way more fulfilling.

I consider the physical, emotional, and social toll that working at fast food requires way harder than my IT job where I have to think more. I also find my job fun, and I dont know anyone who finds fast food fun.

I work in software development and definitely enjoyed it more at first but now I find it equally soulless. I would also say the average fast food worker works harder than me.

But I also know Elon Musk works way harder than I do. I'm not saying there aren't some other bigwig rich people that work way less hard than a fast food worker, but elon musk is a very poor example for this.

So if the premium outweighs the loss of sale, it should be made? In other words, if a stock is at $10.10 and I sell a call at $10 for $100 premium, and the cost of that 1% loss is under $100, why not do this?

I like selling calls to exit positions but it has risk.

If the position falls to 9.50 you are better off than having not sold the covered call, but you are worse off than if you had just sold the stock at 10.10
