Well my phone decided to enter a bootloop this morning so now I have to look into getting it serviced... or replaced. Anyone use one of those Pixel phones?

Also considering how much I use two-factor authentication I am now in hell.

Also if I believed in conspiracy theories, really convenient this happens after all the sales have wound down...

It could be the power button is stuck in, maybe try whacking it on a table sideways.

My phone came back on for one minute and I chose to spend that minute inputting my 2FA authentication for Humble Bundle. Now it's gone again

Do the main story quests until you're underleveled for them, then do the major sidequests until you are leveled up for the main story again. If you run out of sidequests do the Witcher contracts last. Treasure Hunts are the least worth your time imo

no no no. i'm only referring to the fact that roughly 10 of the 70 hours i have in P5 consists of me staring at the loading screen because the game goes "okay loading screen... for a 30 second conversation with your cat that just amounts to hey remember this plot point... now loading screen again... now a 10 second conversation from one of your friends inviting you somewhere... now loading screen... now calendar screen... now loading screen... now subway/school scene where people are saying the same rumors you've heard 20 times already... now loading screen..." etc

the social link stuff is "gameplay", i would never want to axe that. but an option to limit the sheer number of pointless screens would literally shave 10-20 hours off and that's kind of a big deal if you don't have time to play games all day every day or you want to play lots of games

Hey, the game tells you to "take your time" :v:

I don't like poe combat because real-time-with-pause was always bad

I really wanted to like it because Obsidian but everything about the combat was so clunky, it did not feel satisfying to complete any of the encounters in that game

I really wanted to like it too. I had some problems with the writing too but it's definitely the combat that made me not enjoy it.

Fortunately Divinity Original Sin 2 was great and actually had fun combat.

I was watching a stream of that and I saw that you can get a cat familiar and talk to dogs, which shot that game way up on my wishlist. I'll probably get a start on that after the holidays

I keep thinking about playing EU4 again but Endless Space 2 is currently in my empire strategy slot. Maybe I'll pick up some more expansions in the winter sale and get to it after the holidays, the first couple weeks of January look pretty barren game-wise


Edit: Holy poo poo the MSRP for me to catch up on EU4 actual gameplay DLC is $70

All walking sims should have to contain a playable copy of the doom shareware episode somewhere in the spooky house for when it gets boring to read about the designers sad feelings.

Gone home woulda earn than 10/10 if that snes cart was doom and i could play it until the parents got back from not finding the sister.

Looks like someone hasn't entered the wild world of Gone Home speedrunning. This video with Griffin McElroy and [REDACTED] is pretty good

FF12ZA has a chest that appears 1 in a 100 times and if you open that chest with a specific character wearing a specific item you have another 1 in 100 chance of getting an item.


Also the chest is both hidden somewhere you'd never go, and is invisible. Also technically the item is invisible as well.

So what you are saying is that there are better odds than loot boxes am I right?

Ladies in mech armor. After you defeat them you get a half-hour monologue about each from Drebin talking about how they were traumatized by war and horrific things happened to them forcing them to become cyborg soldiers.

You also get the option to enter a "photoshoot" mode with them where you can take snapshots and they giggle and like smooth jazz plays. Also they are all based on fashion models so Kojima needed to set up motion capture and full body scan sessions with all of them for it
