Pet peeves: The return (Part 4)

apparently the first person in the race to level 100 in hard core diablo 4 achieved their goal, then the game disconnected, and due to the way the game works that killed the character, deleting it.

I was never going to play hardcore, but damn is that isn’t another reason for me to not care for it. Losing hours+hours of progress not for any misplay or gameplay failure, but just because of internet issues - whether that be on your side or blizz’s. Extremely lame.

My car wipers are stuck to On.
The car was fine for the hour I drove to the shop and back. Then it was fine driving to the gym.
I come OUT of the gym, and go to set off. Wipers stuck to on.

I do not have the spoons to deal with this nonsense right now, could the world stop being Stupidly Broken In Every Possible Way for ONE DAMN YEAR PLEASE?!

The FF7R twitter has been posting “questions” and “”“answers”“” every day for the pats week, presumably to drum up hype.

[Incredibly Derogatory] No one does marketing like Square Enix

I am confused by the top right one.

I assume they’ll have either a summary cinematic or text thing to give you the keynotes for new players.

Guessing the battle system will be reintroduced via Cloud’s flashback to Nibelheim so you can play as a baby again and not be a high level materia-laden fellow from the first moment.

It’s all guesses though, because telling you anything at all?? Impossible.

Welcome to game marketing corpo speak from Japan.
Just a different flavour of ugh.

Some vulpera poster earlier in the thread had a pet peeve of people not needing to pee in roleplay and felt ‘forced’ to imagine other OCs as having peed themselves to retain their immersion

I am in pain. : )

Probably because you need to pee

Finished Ghostwire Tokyo…'s main story. Didn’t bother with all the sidequests, collectables, or its roguelite mode.

It was fine, I guess, but packing the open world with three dozen different types of collectables made me just not care about any of them.
Some pretty cool visuals, an utterly middling upgrade system, and a ‘fine’ combat system.

I dunno if I’d say it was hamstrung by the open world aspects in totality since running through the shibuya streets was pretty cool, but it definitely lacked some in the game design areas.

Got shopping done.

That’s pretty much the ‘good’ part of the day. I did go gym, but now I ache and my shoulder feels worse than it did before and my breathing is still crud.
My car is still knackered; I had to take the fuse out the windscreen wiper so it wasn’t on the whole time, but I can tell it’s still nixed cos the rear one goes on when I go into reverse (its still set to Off. Lol. Lmao)
The place I went to try and get it fixed was winding down for the day and I might have a better shot at it tomorrow. BUT that’s in town, and a ways from the town centre. So if they have to take it in and work it for the day 1) I can’t go home, because that’s zogging miles away (at least on foot) 2) its still a way from the town centre and I just have to… mill about? For who knows how long?

The world is in such a pit right now; chunks of it are on fire, flooded, at war, technology is edging closer to eating our brains, the Billionaires are still not Deceased and now all this. I think this can be summed up with hatehatehatehatehate-

This is true.

I wish all such people and their ilk a Very Happy Pride Month, and a Merry Perish.

Me: oh no, the comp I brought to Midnight Fane is absolutely trash, I have no spellcasters!! How will I even kill Playful Darkness??

My MC and Seelah: haha cave fangs go brrr

since everyone says playful darkness is a bit of a bruhwtf i don’t even feel remorse and hyuck, i’d do it again (especially when silly me thought i was going to get some big enchantment spells as seeker oracle, but…idk apparently not?? so minus cave fangs im just a gimped melee buffbot :nauseated_face: )
