Hey, buddy. :glomp:



Is Destiny 2 the quickest non-launch PS+ that a game has went free on PS+?

A little of both. Lots of good videos on YT about the subject.

The worst thing about that sub story is that it's not even an easy win, you're starting way behind in points and can barely afford to even lose a single hand.

Yeah I gave it my best shot and read all the rules but not only do I not understand the strategy you're at an enormous disadvantage. It's kinda insane that they put such a brutal challenge in there.

Beat Donut County today. What a great game :swoon:

DLC/expansion/sequel can’t come soon enough. That was one of the best little games I’ve ever played. Simple but never dull or lacking charm.

Maybe? Probably some indie stuff has as well. It makes sense though, get the last of the people that might be interested but didn't bite for whatever reason on board and they might buy the expansion while still in that "hey this game is quite enjoyable" haze.

Some of the videos you can buy will teach you moves if you watch them. Well I say 'some' but I've found literally one that did so far and I'm only missing one video.

Oh hey, Destiny 2. I'll play to level up a character and then forget about it. Hell, I launched Destiny 1 a few weeks ago to check if there are still players and to my surprise main city had quite a lot of players running around.

This feels like a downgrade. I feel like there's way less detail to the environment, even though they've got water physics now.
My take is that it looks like that to make it easier to visually scan it all while you’re moving at the quicker pace that this seems to be based around. The first game was really slow and methodical; this seems much faster.

Please do, I'm trying to avoid the hype but also getting extremely hyped. Trying to decide if I should increase the odds of the game being bad by buying the Digital Deluxe.

Ignore it for now and play up to meeting Komaki, do all his training then fight him, when you win you'll get an item that gives you an instant winning hand in mahjong, use that to beat the sub story.

I hosed around in Sotenbori for so long that I got a Peerless Tile from that somehow. It was probably one of the locker keys. I managed to find like, all but six of them by the time I finally got out of there.

Then I used it and there was fire and I still have no idea what was happening but I won in literally one button press. I think it was Rinchii or Rin or something? Still completely lost.

The Black Ops Effect 1 happened where not long after Destiny 2 came out a lot of people traded it back in to pick up Destiny 1 again.

Consoles should be used and not seen. Except the Switch because that makes things kind of awkward.

Imagine an hdtv on a wall and then a bunch of dusty consoles + spooky occult items + some action figures + random decor all piled on a small entertainment system and there’s my setup. Y’all can’t handle the chaos.

The consoles are behind that middle door and you can't really tell there but it's propped open because, as I learned the other day, the PS4 will flash a bright loving red light if it gets too hot and will constantly interrupt your game with popups :mad:

This is why you always put warm electronics in wide open spaces with plenty of airflow and away from other heat sources like vents, heaters, and direct sunlight.

Even with the door propped open you're risking having the console cook itself to death.

What’s a game I can beat before spooderman drops?

note: not extremely long please but I literally have no social life so time isn’t a huge deal

Might just stick to wrapping up Y0 stories and playing some smaller indies but suggestions are always good.

I got a new tv stand from IKEA the other day and while I really like it, I worry about the PS4 because the stand has a back to it. There are holes for wires and such but I worry about the heat that it being put out and kept around in the relatively small space (basically the size of one of the spaces above the tv stand cabinets in Akuma's picture).

Also from that visit to IKEA I'm pretty sure I saw everything in Akuma's picture, including those little chairs in the top-left.

USB cpu fans are cheap. Plug them in hidden in back to bring air in and air out. My pro is in a tight space. That quiet fans are louder then the pro gets even on notorious games.

Just make more holes in it. With a drill, not a hammer. I mean a hammer will work eventually but it's very noisy and slow.
