skullbone 01/06/21 3:54:17 PM #33 | Nanis23 posted... But I can't stand people that defended the previous riots this year suddenly going and saying how "violent riots are not ok" Storming a Wal-Mart and storming the fucking capital building don't fall under the same umbrella. --- skull |
Topic | Playing two games at the same time (well, not literally simultaneously) |
skullbone 01/06/21 12:40:37 PM #19 | As far as single player games I usually have a PS4 and PC game going at the same time. Then I have a bunch of multiplayer games but I don't know why I play most of them honestly. --- skull |

Topic | Family Video, the last major video rental chain, is closing for good |
skullbone 01/05/21 7:02:17 PM #4 | I wonder how business would have changed for these places if they switched to focus on renting video games instead of movies. If these places were 80% video games and 20% movies (instead of the opposite) maybe they would have had more success. I kinda miss being able to grab a game and beat it in a week/weekend. Now I have to spend $60 dollars on Miles Morales which I'm never going to play again after a few weeks. --- skull |
Topic | Huh, theres no Black Friday topic |
skullbone 01/05/21 1:33:50 PM #463 | Yeah it's a little loud when reading discs but my PS4 Pro was a jet engine during graphically intense games so this is a massive improvement. No crashes for me so far and I only use rest mode. Hasn't been turned off since I got it except the restarts from updates. --- skull |

skullbone 01/05/21 3:14:37 AM #24 | Team Rocket Elite posted... I missed most of the run. Did they say why this run was so much faster than previous runs? Like at the end they said they beat the 4 player coop record with just 3 players. Seems like they had crazy luck with shrines and map spawns. They seemed really confident going in too so maybe there was some new tech they discovered recently or something? --- skull |
Topic | Series where you've played multiple games, but aren't a fan of? |
skullbone 01/04/21 7:19:34 PM #40 | Tales was the first thing that came to mind for me too. Zestiria and Berseria was okay but Vesperia was awful. I struggle to find anything good to say about Vesperia and most people seem to agree that it's one of the best! --- skull |

skullbone 01/04/21 1:38:24 PM #461 | Removing the banner makes me think they know how serious this one is. Advertising a unit and then not being able to actually pull him is a massive deal for gacha games. I'm expecting a full refund and some big compensation (maybe the fabled 300 stones) but we'll see. --- skull |

skullbone 01/04/21 2:30:41 AM #453 | Advice for new Battlefield: take STR SSJ3 Vegeta and STR Bee Pan or you're going to have a bad time against Freiza. He has a passive where he doesn't take any damage from Extreme teams so you can't rely on having EXT STR and Super STR to beat him. Bring two super STR teams if you can instead of an EXT STR team because you don't need one. --- skull |

skullbone 12/30/20 4:29:35 PM #17 | turbopuns3 posted... Well sure. If "playing the game requires learning rules" is a detractor, Obviously not what I said but I'm done with this topic if you're just going to be dismissive --- skull |
Topic | Friendly reminder: bridge is the GOAT card game |
skullbone 12/30/20 2:53:33 PM #10 | turbopuns3 posted... I kid...I enjoy euchre. Bridge just happens to blow it out of the water no contest imo I mean it looks fun but it feels like it would take too long to memorize all of the rules without having to keep referring to some sort of guide. I can explain euchre to newcomers in about 5 minutes and they can have some sort of grasp what they're doing. Maybe it's not as complicated as it sounds when you start playing but the investment to have fun with bridge seems too high. Card games typically succeed in my friends group because they're easy to explain --- skull |
Topic | Friendly reminder: bridge is the GOAT card game |
skullbone 12/30/20 1:33:39 PM #6 | I looked up the rules and it sounds like euchre with more steps. I'll stick with euchre --- skull |
Topic | Why are PlayStation 4s so expensive |
skullbone 12/30/20 12:55:42 PM #5 | It's a God of War special edition PS4 Pro. I don't have the box anymore or the game so it seems the value is $200 to $250. Not worth the hassle of selling it on eBay. --- skull |
Topic | Why are PlayStation 4s so expensive |
skullbone 12/30/20 12:46:32 PM #2 | I find it hard to believe people are still paying that much for PS4s. I'm about to trade my PS4 Pro into Gamestop for $175 in store credit because I think that's the most anyone is ever going to pay me for it. --- skull |
Topic | Huh, theres no Black Friday topic |
skullbone 12/29/20 3:23:12 PM #442 | Congrats! You also got yours before me! I'm currently waiting for FedEx to deliver this damn thing and I have a feeling they're going to say they tried and failed and take it to Walgreens. Seems to happen every time with FedEx. If I had any choice of retailer I'd probably pick Kohls since they give you like 100+ Kohls Cash to use so you could basically grab a few games for free. --- skull |

The different guns make it feel like Ratchet and Clank and the traversal is basically grinding from Tony Hawk games. The story can be pretty cringe but also occasionally funny. --- skull |

skullbone 12/28/20 6:36:28 PM #9 | I work from home doing technical support. I'd say 4-5 hours of my shift is just browsing the internet but I don't play games because it would get interrupted by calls too often. --- skull |

This guy was Omu so he was just power leveling and it still doesn't make any sense to me. --- skull |

It didn't give you full control or freedom/ responsiveness of movement The only thing it's missing is a jump button so I'm not sure I get this critique. It's not like DQXI where you can run around but it doesn't do anything; you can actually dodge attacks in FF7R. --- skull |

skullbone 12/24/20 12:42:31 PM #21 | Sunroof posted... I dont mind supporting it. I have it on Switch. What is Epic Games? Creators of Fortnite. They started an online platform to try and rival Steam and they give away a lot of free games. Normally it's a free game every week but during the holidays they've been giving out a free game every day. This has been going on through 2019 and 2020. --- skull |

skullbone 12/23/20 8:52:59 PM #19 | Last time this event came around I only played Mei and won like 90% of the games so I could get my arcade boxes faster but it feels so much more difficult as Mei this time around. If they didn't buff Yeti then I don't know what happened --- skull |
Topic | Overwatch Winter Wonderland 2020 has started |
skullbone 12/23/20 8:38:01 PM #17 | Yeah I don't know if they buffed the Yeti or something but it seems way easier to win this time around with him. They should increase the number of kills he needs or something but I doubt they will --- skull |
Topic | Hearthstone Topic:Madness at the Darkmoon Faire |
skullbone 12/23/20 6:47:34 PM #210 | If you take a direhorn on turn 7 then you stand no chance in this meta. I'm routinely running into multiple 6 drops on turn 9 and 6 drops are more impactful than they've ever been I think. A single Elistra could mean your enemy takes 20+ damage on turn 8. I'm going to experiment with playing faster and see how it goes because whatever I'm doing now is not working. Also I've always had perks so that's a nonfactor. --- skull |
Topic | Hearthstone Topic:Madness at the Darkmoon Faire |
skullbone 12/23/20 6:25:37 PM #208 | It looks like my problem is the mindset that you should still try to triple into a 5 drop early. The game is so fast now that it seems you should actually be trippling into a 6 drop to get your build online faster. Who knows how you're actually supposed to survive if you're power leveling to 5 though --- skull |

Topic | Hearthstone Topic:Madness at the Darkmoon Faire |
skullbone 12/23/20 3:43:10 AM #204 | Playing against these evolve and totem shamans is getting me very close to uninstalling and never looking back. Seeing a Shaman go from an empty board on turn 5 to a 6 drop, 4 two drops, and 2 nine drops WHILE clearing my board because of broom is the stupidest thing I've ever seen in Hearthstone. I don't even think these decks are OP but the design choices are just so far gone from what I want anymore. --- skull |

skullbone 12/22/20 5:23:37 PM #201 | Feeling so fed up with Battlegrounds lately. No matter what I do or how strong my comp is I end up taking 25 damage on turn 9 in like 75% of games. Obviously I'm bad but I just have no idea what I'm doing wrong. --- skull |
Topic | What do you consider to be the most revolutionary video game ever? |
skullbone 12/22/20 3:53:28 PM #15 | What exactly makes SMB more revolutionary than something like Donkey Kong or Pitfall? It's certainly an improvement in the formula of "guy running to the right and jumping" but SM64 feels like a better answer to me. Not trying to be cynical I'm curious what was so revolutionary about SMB. --- skull |

Topic | The Mandalorian Season 2 premieres tonight |
skullbone 12/21/20 12:47:38 PM #188 | I think I'm more concerned about the actual plot of a Luke show. Is it just him training kids or trying to setup a new temple we know is going to fall in 15 years? Are they going to flirt around showing Han and Leia or recast them too? I have faith in Favreau and Filoni but I wouldn't even know where to start if I was making this show. --- skull |
Topic | The Mandalorian Season 2 premieres tonight |
skullbone 12/21/20 12:42:14 PM #186 | I thought it looked miles better than CGI Tarkin but yeah a whole show of that might be a little rough. As much as I'd like to see a Luke show in this time period it sounds tricky to be honest. --- skull |

skullbone 12/18/20 8:41:53 PM #189 | Battlegrounds is truly an enigma to me right now. I feel like I have a strong board by turn 9 or 10 and then I get completely demolished and go out in 7th place. It's not a good feeling to have 100+ hours in Battlegrounds and feel like I've made basically 0 progress as a player. I think I need to completely change my entire playstyle or something because it's just not working anymore. --- skull |
