  • No lol, two weeks ago I was messaging a girl and she asked if I was using an Android. I was like yeah, it's a galaxy fold. Which seemed to placate her. I believe there's like a vibe of if you don't have an iPhone you're poor or something lol.

  • Idk this is ambiguous stuff is how you can waste an hour with your players ripping everything off the walls because they think you being unclear is a signifier of something. Like you have to be more clear than ambiguous over all because they are playing a game and unless they are checked out will drill down into it. Maybe you don't mind them wasting an hour investigating a pointless room or doing everything they can on an object because you were vague about it but it's not rewarding for players. Like being vague about a rock is going to have any player take it with them compared to saying "it's just a rock." Maybe you can take those moments and make memories from improv'ing with them but itll get exhausting for both sides after awhile.

  • On iPhone if someone without an iPhone texts you it shows up as green. It also disabled a bunch of iphone features you can use since they aren't on iPhone.

    Essentially weird elitism. It's come up in my dating life.

  • Pretty sure there's no way to cancel a venmo payment. Once it hits your account it's there. Idk what 3 day thing you mean.

    The only fishy thing with venmo is the "I sent a code" or saying "I sent it" and sending you a fake confirmation. Like unless it's in your venmo account it's not there but I don't think there's anyway to undo it. Otherwise what good is their service? It's not like they can do a charge back. That's why theft on venmo and similar apps is a big deal because they can't/won't "undo" it.

    This isn't like getting a direct ach payment/check to your bank or anything.

  • Nazi: "white power!" Normal people: "hey, stfu!" Cristian Conservatives: "hey I don't agree with it but let's hear him out. Some people might agree, his ideas deserve to be discussed and given a platform"

  • Really dial in the sensitivity I'd say. It took me like legit cranking it up and then adjusting down by 2% at a time to find a sweet spot. But it's definitely much more responsive and tighter than any other Fallout-esque game they've done. Those always felt mushy.

    I'll say too it's probably that the games aim assist is very light. Like almost hardly there. For a single player offline game it could use a small increase. Like I'm still able to head shot dudes but it's noticeable, and combined with muscle memory for similar games, having hardly any 'magnetism' is an adjustment. I keep meaning to look if there's a slider in the settings.

  • "not a failure" I called it frustrating and death by a thousand cuts. Just because I don't screech failure and send Todd Howard death threats doesn't mean I'm not being critical of the game. Get some reading comprehension and don't set the bar at hyperbole. Saying the thing you do 75% of the time is fun isn't calling it a rousing success either by any means.

  • Why didn't you pick any of the more negative traits? Like your example is the most basic harmless one. There's ones with way more downsides. Did you pick the '2 loving parents' trait and are mad they don't kill you on sight? lmao. Like I picked wanted where I always have a bounty and it's cool. I've had a bounty hunter show up in the middle of a boss fight before. Both in space and on ground. Added a decent complication. A few of the others are pretty long term negatives like weakening aids and food.

    I also don't know if you explored much because the game has a pretty robust ailments system. Like if you pre-plan sure you can have all the expensive cures on hand, but you can get quite a few ailments at once from fucking around. I had a cough for like 4 hours because I couldn't find an aid for it. I eventually had to go to a doctor to get rid of it.

  • I had Vasco become a part of the door to the cockpit. I couldn't enter. I had to leave the ship and hit the specific 'to cockpit' button for a few hours because reloading didn't save him from his torment. Only bug I've had but was weird lol.

  • I think it's fun, but I'm a run and gun kind of guy. So I'm having a blast shooting dudes in the face. The shooting is much better than Fallout. I LOVE fighting in the zero gravity arenas. It's so cool like floating between pillars and headshotting a guy off in the distance and his body is now bopping around. Those are so rare though. Idk how I can find more.

    But overall I find the game frustrating outside battles. It's like death by a thousand cuts though. There's no one thing that's egregious but there's just stacking outdated design choices that continually build up. The games indecision around flying your ship being an easy catch all for the multiple failures in making your ship mean anything outside of battles and the map system. For the love of God fix the slide, you slide like 2inches. There's also a constant battle with backing out of menus. Idk.

    But then I find some spacer trap house and have a good time blasting away. Excited for when I can actually can craft bespoke weapons.

  • The RNC debate was a pretty big red alert. One of the more popular candidates literally said "climate change is a hoax" and got applause. And most of them would at least admit it was real but immediately talked about removing 'government restrictions' unfairly placed on corporations and climate change is an excuse to burn money for the current party.

    Pretty cool.....
