Evidently.

lunar tartan

🤦

#

I have bad news about the format of the server

#

it's all reading

fiery python
#

We won't bother to answer any more of your questions then, because that's giving you more reading to do.

shell blade

reading reminds me of school

text based chat is gonna be rough

Ridiculous backlog aside, I still need to finish off Ragnarok, then there's Pokémon, MWII, Fortnite season ending and new one starting soon... Calisto Protocol next week.

Am I the only one that triple checks pronouns before sending a message?!?

merry palm
#

one of the rare few.

lunar tartan
#

The last thing I wanna do is misgender someone

lunar tartan
modern narwhal
#

i dont like to get to personal to early .. so no need to check

merry palm
#

uh

#

ok?

merry palm
fiery python
#

Showing a lack of care and attention is how you avoid getting personal entirely.

wild tulip
#

Who made their christmas trees already?🥳

lunar tartan
#

That’s so inaccurate in so many ways. You don’t need to know someone personally or on an intimate way to respect someone pronouns

modern narwhal
#

well given the whole screen thing

fiery python
gray latch
#

I WANT people to look at my profile and use the correct pronouns

#

not doing so is rude

long maple
#

yep gonna be sometime in December for me too

lunar tartan
tired hare
#

I do that when i notice people after a day and get to know em

long maple
#

I got tons of work to do before even thinking about a tree. like getting all the decorations out of the attic and I cant be bothered right now 😄

wild tulip
#

I already put out a Christmas tree, still need to decorate it🥳

merry palm
#

i gave up on pronouns mostly.
genderfluid makes it too tiring to manage for me
i just stuck ones that dont irritate me the most

lunar tartan
#

If you cannot do the common decency of checking someone’s profile then it’s best to just stick to they/them unless you get corrected or learn otherwise

fiery python
#

Christmas LEGO before christmas tree for me.

tired hare
#

Neighbor is a genius, he left all his pumpkins out like I did, but he painted his green and red and turned all his halloween into christmasy

fiery python
#

I wouldn't have a tree if I were on my own.

worn shale
modern narwhal
#

its already hard enough to try to talk to people why make it even harder

wild tulip
#

You don't like festive spirits?😢

tired hare
#

I have my little tree from when single in my apartment, now its family room tree

long maple
#

I will just keep my tree up longer like that one year it was still up till May-June 😄

worn shale
fiery python
modern narwhal
#

didnt say that

night rapids
#

I know people that leave a tree up all year round and decorate it for different holidays

fiery python
#

This just tells me you don't fully understand pronouns.

worn shale
#

tbh i dont fully understand pronouns either

merry palm
#

if you dont care what pronouns, just put all of them idk

gray latch
#

never trust anyone who doesn't at least try to get your name & pronouns right

wild tulip
#

You wouldn't misgender someone irl in public would you? internet is a public place after all

merry palm
#

yep

lunar tartan
#

Wouldn’t it be harder to not respect pronouns? I cannot imagine a lot of communities are ok with people misgendering others because someone got a little to lazy to check

merry palm
#

i am fine with mistakes, but peeps not even trying.. no ty

gray latch
#

exactly

worn shale
#

someone on discord straight up said they wont respect my pronouns so i unfriended them

merry palm
#

its like refusing to say someones name bc you dont know how to pronounce it lol

wild tulip
#

Just a human courtesy

lunar tartan
#

Mistakes are bound to happen we are human

wild tulip
#

Like people asking in advance how to pronounce your name so not to make a mistake

lunar tartan
#

Rhinne might be a bot though 😂🙃

long maple
#

back inabit, time for breakfast

fiery python
#

The whole stupid 'Did you just assume my gender' meme instilled fear in people over pronouns. The vast majority of people are not going to be offended or harass you if you refer to them as he instead of they, or whatever they use. They will just politely inform you of what their preference is.

Pronouns do not make things more difficult, they're a necessary part of communication and not hard to get right.

wild tulip
#

It's okay to be a bot😁

wild tulip
merry palm
#

i try not to let it get to me. but sometimes the misgendering is ouch

#

eh. i mess up sometimes, even with long term friends. not constantly but it happens. i just correct and move on

#

we both know its not on purpose

#

people generally do not mind mistakes. and its very noticeable when it is one

lunar tartan
#

In America the first word in our constitution is we and yet ppl say there’s no pronouns in it 😂

fiery python
#

The same people who think that pronouns are a new invention.

lunar tartan
#

Yup

#

Or that non-binary people are new

#

Yet I’ve been identifying myself as non-binary for almost 10 years

worn shale
#

i didnt know non binary was an old thing

merry palm
#

so so old lol

#

been around in many cultures worldwide for ages

wild tulip
#

Just respect things other human beings hold dear to them
Sounds simple

wind hollow
#

Hi, i know its kinda stupid asking this on discord. But does anyone know what to do when my Xbox doesn’t want to take my disc?

lunar tartan
#

Yup I learned what non-binary was from YouTube. I’d always felt uncomfortable in my gender but didn’t feel 100% trans and that just clicked to me. I found the term I was looking for late last year

wind hollow
#

ok

flint lily

what are y'all plans for Christmas?

fiery python

Whatever Lucy wants to do.

#

While I endure the season.

flint lily

merry palm
#

bc i dont celebrate xmas but the kids like me to be there and they buy me presents

#

last year i got coasters. it was very sweet

#

the year before they gave me a lamp shaped like a dinosaur

summer magnet
#

I'm more looking forward to after christmas in January when it's disney time

fiery python
#

I don't like Christmas. I usually let colleagues take the time off and I'll work more days because I'm home on my own most of the time any way. I'll only be sat around bored.

Lucy finishes work at 2 most days, I finish at 3, so no major time lost if I'm working.

What I'm doing for Christmas...

Absolutely nothing if I can help it. Christmas is one of the hardest times of the year for me, due to personal reasons. If and when we celebrate, we buy one or two gifts and then call it. lol

quartz charm
#

what gift

novel roost

its on my pc but involves an xbox controller

I’m excited for the new fable

Bro I can’t believe Microsoft sells the elite series 2 for $250
That’s a lot of money and EB games dosent have any in stock right now

#

It’s more expensive then a fully decked out custom controller

Because it does more than the standard controllers.

Unfortunately I am not able to play it at its full abilities but it’s still amazing

My TV only does 1080p series s can go to 1440p

fiery python

There's not that many TVs that will do 1440p any way.

lunar tartan
#

True true

hushed hound
#

Since when Hellblade had photo mode ?

lunar tartan
#

Wait so if you were to buy a 4K tv would it more than likely default it to 1080p still?!?

shell sleet

sup

fiery python
#

It would upscale to 4K.

lunar tartan
#

Interesting

lunar tartan
fiery python

It's not rendering the content in 4K, but will upscale. The TV may have an upscaler too.

Would obviously be better if I had a 4K monitor, although not sure if my 3060 could handle 4k with all these mods as it's struggling with 1080p lol, about 30fps

mw2 needs help. too much hackers with cross play

i turned off my cross play bc of that reason

What about nadia, i heard she is cheating but hasn’t been banned.

cinder veldt

I'm not sure if I have met people slightly cheating or just way better than me because I did well 2 matches

fiery python

If they haven't been banned, maybe they're not cheating.

people just assume sometimes. it doesn’t make sense.

I noticed some cheaters but its has gotten better now.

you hear racism near you than the next thing you die

I need some advice . So I sent my design labs Controller to support. It can't be repaired but they can't send it back to be also. They want to refund me but want the order number wich I don't have since it was a present. I do however have the serial number on the og boxing. Any advice?

No they didn't.

hushed hound

It's not their fault that you/the person who ordered it can't find an order number. That's just being irresponsible with important information. You robbed yourself.

I was about to say isn’t there one that comes with the Xbox

I wouldnt be asking if i knew which one came in the box

You can just plug it in and see what it says in settings for output

Nah, I prefer the bigger and more modern ex military vehicles

My ultimate goal is to have a HMMWV, a tank and an ex military decommissioned fighter

Not sure which fighters are legal to fly around tho lol, probably nothing too modern incase RAF panics lol

The jeeps are dope cause can use for parades and stuff, as iconic pieces. Not sure a modern humvee as historical yet

If had one of those mounted guns that go on top, then i'd like it

Crazy, i would have thought they had crap range and mpg, but looked it up, with 25 gallon tank, even at 10mpg that's still solid 250 mile range, says it can do 350, forum of guys said they each average like 15mpg.

Like i said. There are ps fanboy thinks god of war is the best game

fiery python
#

Nothing wrong with thinking that's the best game. It's a very good game. Doesn't make them a fanboy.

unborn bay
#

And god of war is overrated

fiery python
#

In your opinion.

fiery python
#

Thinking that a critically acclaimed title is the best game does not make someone a fanboy.

tired hare
#

Based on TGA, i think that cat game prob over-rated

fiery python
#

You implying that their personal opinion of a game is wrong makes you more of a fanboy than they are.

tired hare
#

idk, not giving Halo any nominations feels fanboy'ish

fiery python
#

Halo Infinite came out last year.

tired hare
#

Yeah but i asked around it's eligible this year.

It's also had a considerably troubled launch and development process, a lack of frequent content and issues.

Let people love their games, everyone has their own opinions and shouldn't be judge.

dry atlas
#

Is the Xbox series s worth to buy

tired hare
#

I was only thinking it, cause at least for me, only reason to say over-rated is if something else wasn't getting credit.

fiery python
#

Yes

dry atlas
#

is the Xbox series s worth to switch from a ps5

fiery python
#

That's for you to decide.

#

But it's a lower spec console compared to PS5. Same generation, but aims for 1080p-1440p. Series X is a better comparison unless you're on a budget.

dry atlas
#

I’ll stay with ps5 because it seems faster

fiery python
#

Makes a nice second console to go alongside PS5 though if you want to check out Game Pass and stuff.

unborn bay
dry atlas
#

My budget is £370

fiery python
#

I wouldn't personally switch from PS5 to Series S though, but that's me.

#

If you intend to have both, go for it.

tired hare
#

If doing full switch that's hard call, like if have to sell it to get Xbox. If PS4 i'd def say for sure. If already got PS5, id only do it, if you more seen yourself on xbox long term

dry atlas
#

I’ll think abt it, I was planning to get an iPad

hushed hound
#

Every next-gen console is faster, has been tested for 2 years now

tired hare
#

You can do what I do. I get 360, then PS3 Slim. One PS4 Pro. Series X and then PS5 Pro

#

Halo infinite was still fun despite its shortcomings IMO

dry atlas
#

Because xbox ss was £186 on Amazon a new one

You jump to conclusions and ignore all the points I made.

fiery python
# unborn bay Even the xss better and faster

Neither are 'better' because it's all based on personal preferences and use case.

Faster is also incredibly vague as there's various measurements of 'fast', some of which the Series S is slower on.

Let's get it right.

I read that they spent so much making that movie, it needs to make $2 billion just to break even. That's like the 5th or 6th most successful movie of all time kind of numbers.

I'll say something cool tho:
I've seen one of the creatures I've personally worked on for the game appear already in one of the Avatar-themed parks around the world 😉 That was pretty awesome to see, since it was created specifically for the game and now it's part of the whole universe 😄

The first one was a reasonably decent movie, but ultimately it's just Pocahontas with Smurfs.

Have you seen the Avatar thing in Singapore, Anchel?

A few colleagues at work were there for a week for training and took some pics. It looked pretty cool. But same issue as the Pandora area in Disney - too dark to get decent pics half the time.

I was in the Pandora area of Disney at night. It's very atmospheric with the bio-luminescent plants, but with those being mostly the only lighting it really screws with camera focus.

Then it will be later.

They never specified a time that I'm aware of.

Yeah its not like a new released game where should expect it at crack of time

They didn't. They literally only said today and while "most" games show up around midnight, some (especially EA Play games) usually show up much much later.

fiery python
#

Isn't season 3 today too?

#

I would guess it will be added at the same time season 3 goes live.

lusty crow
#

Yeah, they said it was hitting Game Pass with the launch of Season 3.

#

Well, EA Play, since you need GPU for EA Play on Console.

fiery python

Given that EA are located in the US, it's probably not going to be until later on today when they're in their regular working hours to ensure support for the new season launch.

I meant natively but yeah ive tried cloud and stream off consoles/PC. Ill prob get a steam deck as everyone love sem

trail harness
#

Yeah you cant natively play Steam games on Android or iOS

#

You need a PC or Steam Deck (which is a PC hardware wise)

#

PCs are x86 and phones/tablets are usually ARM. That difference alone makes it really hard to have Steam games on them.

tired hare

I got a new phone, so was gonna use my last one kept inside my ipega. and setup as retro gaming and stuff. Mainly xcloud for new stuff.

Usually not to bad with my wifi. Just nice having dedicated units like that.

Valve had to do a ton of work just to get the games running well on Linux (Steam Deck uses Linux for SteamOS, based on Arch IIRC).

#

They really advanced the state of PC gaming by doing that TBH.

The new Xbox app/platform on Windows 10/11 is basically the same thing minus that

I mean PCs window live, but yeah they said you had to start the game to accecss it, and so years later had to remove that drm from Dark Souls 2 on pc

Fallout 3 also had that DRM

yeah they said it was one of the last ones who still had it in 2021

Wasn't it like StarForce that had the kernel driver that needed another program to remove?

my monitor on xbox, i can only do so much, need very specific screens if want things.

It's okay to he cranky and hate things. No awards show is without bias or fault. None will be as perfect as you want them to be. Gamers are never happy. I enjoy the shows and excitement of the awards season

It's their 40th anniversary show. They must be doing something right

Exactly. It’s the same with Oscars. The winner there isn’t more or less enjoyable than favourite movie of individual xzy

Tbf I had a 40th anniversary so that doesn’t really prove anything !

I never watch award shows, but I have no hate for them, they exist for a reason.

#

I used to like the Giant Bomb GotY awards, because of all the debate, negotiation, horse trading and shady deals they'd do to arrive at a conclusion. Sadly, that site no longer exists in the form I enjoyed.

I have my issues with Oscars and GoTY

Thanks Northtrop and Ophelia 🥳

Giant Bomb as a site serves as a perfect reminded that nothing lasts.

#

It had a moment, and that moment has gone.

There were years I got really invested in those goty. Or even oscars. But then the next I just don’t care anymore. Like this is more about celebrating the media than to actually choosing a ‘best game’ or ‘best movie’. People have different opinions and what is best is different to everyones taste

#

I love seeing GoTY from different sites. I really like when they don't all agree it's the same game. Reading their reasoning is interesting

#

If you are all referring to the GB GotYs then for me it was about listening to the people discuss games. It was never about the outcome.

#

Basically what Ophelia just said.

#

Yeah. People debating about their favorites is more interesting than seeing someone getting an award with no explanation

The original crew were just... very distinctive folks.

More often than not, I've not seen any of the Oscar movies nominated for best picture so I don't get as excited. Even with goty, I've not played most of them. But it's nice to watch gaming being shown positively and people being hyped and having fun. Just ignore the comments online. Because, like I've said many times, gamers are never happy

Some people are incapable of being pleased by anything.

Gamer anhedonia is a serious medical issue. 😛

Sol, didn't you know, it's not cool to like things!

Honestly tho… I was very happy that TLOU2 won goty that year. Only because of the comments were extremely vile about it being nominated in the first place

limpid flicker
#

I did know, but this is why I'm dedicated to being uncool. 😉

big same tbh

I try to speak positively of even the things I don't like, unless there's a really big reason.

It would be foolish to think awards aren't biased and there are outside influences at play, sure. But sometimes it's nice to just sit back and enjoy seeing your fellow gamers be happy. Too little of that going around

#

Yeah but The Games Award has very clear issues regardless, specialy of how the critics are chosen, and Oscars still thinks that animated movies arent real movies that deserves an spot on other categories

I would have loved to see Hades win tho. At least in the big geoff one

The Oscars didn't say "animated movies aren't real movies"

i dont get much time to game so i prefer to enjoy every moment i have to myself

I don't know a damn thing about CoD and probably will never play one, but it sure does get a bunch of you excited and that can't be a bad thing.

I don’t know a damn thing about cod either and I am playing it lol

I watch more animated movies than other kinds, personally.

It was some of the jury candidates that said it. Not the oscars themselves

halcyon stratus
#

okay, well, if the backlash was "pumba didn't win best supporting actor" then sure.

but animated films have been nomiated in:
best picture, best documentary, best international feature, best original screenplay, best adapted screenplay, best song, best score, best sound editing, and best visual effects categories

Yep, anger and outrage gets attention

Walt Disney would not be even on the long list for most awesome person if I were making it.
