[final cove]

No wonder it's crashing

[outer haven]

Hello

[obsidian kayak]

Doordash is back online for me lol

[limpid flicker]

Wendy's came to the UK a while ago. They opened one in my city. I haven't used it yet 'cause fast food is too expensive these days.

[brave wasp]

Yeah I've got two of the $10 Biggie Bags full of stuff ready and waiting on the app, lol. Just trying to get the promotional code to stop hitting me with errors 😆

[outer haven]

The page is saying that it can't even load for me now

[merry palm]

Yes but your cart has to be 12 dollars at least.

[obsidian kayak]

Sounds like a coupon they didn’t mean to release

[plucky moth]

wendys probably not having a good day

[brave wasp]

I like how I'm not even getting hit with errors really, just the UNKNOWN 😆

[outer haven]

Lol didn't know everyone here was trying to order doordash at the same time

[limpid flicker]

Wait, $30 off a $12 minimum? Oof.

[merry palm]

Nah it was on purpose

[brave wasp]

Now you see why the app is crashing, lol

[merry palm]

But essentially... They overloaded themselves

[brave wasp]

I will defeat the UNKNOWN with my mad Pokémon skills

[rose jewel]

Omg really? their not in any of the towns I've lived in are they more up north or south ??

[outer haven]

early april fools joke

[lyric jetty]

I blame all you for this

[limpid flicker]

More or less in the middle, where I am. We most definitely have a Wendy's on the nearest main street to my home.

[inner arrow]

Quantum Break is leaving gamepass

[plush mason]

xScreen accessory is pretty cool

[merry palm]

You are welcome.

[obsidian kayak]

What’s that on the fries?

[rose jewel]

That looks so good !

[lyric jetty]

Melted cheddar

[plush mason]

Xbox series s is already portable, with a screen without the need of a monitor or TV, even better

[obsidian kayak]

Have you seen those monitors that snap onto the back of the series s?

[final cove]

Can confirm. Omw to a different state and I fit in my backpack with my clothes and such. No way that's happening with my PS5.

[plush mason]

xScreen?

[merry palm]

Time to go play chauffeur again...

[obsidian kayak]

My tv CEC feature isn’t working and I lost my tv remote 😂

[plush mason]

there is also one for Series X, but Series S looks like a little laptop with that screen

[queen stump]

Quantum Break.

[limpid flicker]

I take it that's not actually a game, Tes? 😛

[merry palm]

Sadly no

I must drive irl

[inner arrow]

Yeah. It’s a weird thing that an xbox published game besides forza is leaving gamepass.

[long maple]

ah yeah was good while it lasted for Microsoft wonder why its leaving now

[plush mason]

wondering if Microsoft would ever release a portable version of xbox

[abstract pulsar]

Already done

They call it smartphones

[merry palm]

Yea...your phone :)

[plush mason]

I mean, xcloud works on mobile but it will mostly lag if you don't have a very good wifi

and it requires the controller on majority of the games

[long maple]

heat and battery life are 2 main things they need to consider and shrinking something down is hardwork.. hence why they moving to Cloud and opening an App store for Mobile

[mellow roost]

Absolute madlad.

[brave wasp]

🤣

[merry palm]

Trippy omg

[limpid flicker]

You need to be online for so much you do on XBOX that it would need to be basically a mobile phone if they did.

[plush mason]

yeah

[merry palm]

Causing drama in other servers, for shame

[long maple]

app store could be open early as next year

[abstract pulsar]

Trippy, bad

[inner arrow]

Guessing Microsoft was nice enough to give Remedy their IP back so they can do their own RGU (Remedy Games Universe)

[outer haven]

How are you all liking the new fortnite season since I wasn't in here when it dropped a couple weeks ago

[plush mason]

how many years you guys think that Xbox Series will last before next gen?

[cerulean basin]

I personally use this. Quite useful.

[lyric jetty]

Licensing maybe the old reliable reason

[plush mason]

yeah that's very good but the major issue is still the requirement of a good connection for a better experience

[inner arrow]

Oh yeah that too. Since so many actors. But wouldn’t that mean it would go completely off from the store and not just gamepass?

[cinder veldt]

It's alright tbh, just finding little time to grind my levels

[long maple]

oh yeah cause TV show portion aswell from Quantum Break

[final cove]

2028

[plush mason]

I use xcloud on pc but not on phone

[long maple]

2028 yep.. cause its already been talked about

[plush mason]

my controller has been sent to warranty and is already on its way back

[final cove]

This tech is extremely powerful. Almost covering an entire decade. And its still barely been tapped

[cerulean basin]

I play fine on 4G celullar

[plush mason]

haven't tested but it have a small delay even on ethernet

[long maple]

yep and features that were supposedly part of the console arent being used for games yet.

[outer haven]

Yeah, I think season is alright. One thing I don't really like about it though is how slow the middle of the game seems to be. Seems like they changed the circles to be bigger. Last season felt... faster in a way? That could have been due to all the hammers though lol.

[limpid flicker]

The discourse about the next generation is always amusing to me.

[tired hare]

A

[limpid flicker]

I realise folks crave more power, but I'm not one of them.

[cinder veldt]

I think the players die to fast

[long maple]

you know that Feedback Streaming or something where you dont always need 100% 4K on a graphic, the further away or off to the side can dropdown so you got more power to do other things

[final cove]

There's just soooo much gameage this generation it's insane

[obsidian kayak]

Yah

[outer haven]

Yeah that's something other people have been pointing out. It's like by the time the second zone happens there's like 25 people left

[plush mason]

sorry I didn't get what you meant

[cinder veldt]

Basically

[long maple]

yeah crazy year just this one, Xbox showcase going to be amazing when they show stuff for 2024 and beyond if they going with that or 12 months again have to see.

[trail harness]

I'm playing one of the few games where driving over a land mine on purpose is a good idea lol

[plush mason]

what is the name of the mini xbox that was supposed to run xcloud, I forgot

[limpid flicker]

A lot of the games I typically play are low-power ones, I've been broadly satisfied with current gen since PS3 was current. Never unhappy to move forwards, but never in a rush.

[mellow roost]

I think our order went through.

[long maple]

yeah I been fine cause I play so many different genres too, I just love Quick Resume. graphics arent everything

[outer haven]

I do like the battle pass this season though. One thing I've been complaining about the past few seasons is how the skins all seem to be random... at least this time they seem to be relevant to the theme save for like one skin

[final cove]

Yep same. When it comes, cool. But I still got my Wii hooked up. Good games will always be good no matter the hardware.

[obsidian kayak]

You guys going to go see Mario movie? Less thin a week to go

[cerulean basin]

Yup, but I gotta wait till after Easter break

[long maple]

yeah taking my kids they break up now for 2 weeks. got to keep them busy

[limpid flicker]

So if it's $30 with a minimum $12, does that mean you can buy $30 exactly of food for free or am I not seeing something?

[final cove]

Yep. My girl wants to see it. Which mean I have to go see it

[trail harness]

I still play PS2 games sometimes

[final cove]

Same! Got mine on an HDMI adapter lol

[plush mason]

would love to see Rebellion Developments having the same opinion

they had to cap Sniper Elite 5 on XSS to 30 fps due to framedrops

[brave wasp]

Yee, lol. That's why the app is getting flooded

[long maple]

well yeah its a huge game not surprised

[lunar tartan]

We just spent $5 on two meals 😂

[obsidian kayak]

Chris Pratt is a weird choice for Mario he sounds nothing like him 😂 but I’ll still watch it

[cinder veldt]

Oh I love this seasons BP, highwire and that tier 100 skin on top

[mellow roost]

If this works and goes through, it'll be legendary.

[trail harness]

I have a PS3 that runs PS2 games on the PS2 CPU.

[long maple]

I just want another Strange Brigade game

[mellow roost]

I just really hope our food isn't too cold when it gets here. That's my only worry. I'll still eat it but it won't be as good.

[final cove]

Lucky man. That's literally the best way to play PS2 games

[brave wasp]

How are y'all getting your orders through

[final cove]

Microwave

[mellow roost]

True, but doesn't work all that well for fries.

[brave wasp]

Air fryer go brrrrrrr

[cinder veldt]

Ticking time bomb?

[obsidian kayak]

I got strange brigade when it was under $5 for the deluxe edition good game

[final cove]

Drink more booze them fries will taste just fine lol

[lunar tartan]

We could just throw the fries in the oven

[trail harness]

I bought my PS3 from a third party seller on Newegg a number of years ago and its served me well so far

[mellow roost]

I don't drink. 😅

[trail harness]

About $130 I paid for it

[plush mason]

PS5 really needed to have 828GB of memory, what kind of SSD have 828GB

very unusual

[final cove]

I'm going through all backup plans here 🙆‍♂️

[long maple]

its custom thats why

[cinder veldt]

One that got hit with the conversion rate, custom built and then hit with os ig

[brave wasp]

What sorta black magic are you using to get your DoorDash order through, smh

[obsidian kayak]

I got a order thru from Jack in the box

[brave wasp]

🤣

[mellow roost]

Spamming on two devices, I guess.

[obsidian kayak]

They prob taking the coupon down that’s why it’s not working

[lunar tartan]

We team worked getting this food

[plush mason]

do you guys use expansion cards

[brave wasp]

I can't even apply the coupon without errors, lol

[obsidian kayak]

No 8tb hard drive

[mellow roost]

Nah, it was that way the whole time.

[plush mason]

8tb that is definitely insane

[mellow roost]

Since 5 PM hit the whole site went down. Coupons refused to work.

[trail harness]

I'm going to buy a 22 terabyte HDD for my PC at some point

[obsidian kayak]

Well I’m insane thin

[brave wasp]

Still can't apply my coupon, smh

[obsidian kayak]

It’s 50% full lol

[brave wasp]

I get hit with the Pokémon error 🤣

[plush mason]

for real

[fathom hamlet]

where can i send images? or is that not allowed in this server?

[trail harness]

I have a 10 tb drive that is like 80% full

[cinder veldt]

I feel like I will end up running multiple smaller drives than one big in my PC

[long maple]

yeah I used to have 8TB hard drive, 5TB hard drive.. but since moving to Series X I only use the 1TB expansion card

[trail harness]

I'm getting multiple big ones lol

[mellow roost]

The rules would tell you.

[plush mason]

my largest drive ever is a 1TB one and it's only 40% full, how do you manage to get a 10TB drive almost full?

[cinder veldt]

I guess you just had PC long enough to stack up more than me tbh

[long maple]

One X was where I had everything. 14TB total, had around 600 games installed

[tired hare]

[brave wasp]

The bane of my existence, lol

[dense elbow]

so after you pay for your name to change how long does it take to actually change?

[trail harness]

I have 400 Steam games, and a dual boot with Linux

[tired hare]

is 258.44 Mbps download speed good?

[obsidian kayak]

lol

[plush mason]

I definitely need one then lol

[lunar tartan]

They should extend the code. It’s not fair for those who’ve been trying since 5

[limpid flicker]

It's hard to predict, we just know it isn't instant.

[tired hare]

??

[long maple]

might pickup another 8TB again they werent that expensive

[cinder veldt]

A whole lot better than mine

[trail harness]

I get about 450 mbps down

[obsidian kayak]

Depends the speed of Internet your paying for if your paying for 200mbps that’s above what your paying for lol

[plush mason]

I am always unistalling and installing over and over due to XSS low memory, issue is that I don't have a 3.0 USB drive or compatible HD so I am gonna have to buy a new one

[tired hare]

its been like 2 hours and my game still has not updated

[mellow roost]

Up to 3 days. Or at least, that's the longest I've ever had to wait.

[mellow roost]

Keep waiting then.

[lunar tartan]

I hope they still pay the dasher more than just the $5 tip

[plush mason]

first name change is free right?

[obsidian kayak]

I wish u could change your name for free if you had game pass ultimate

[mellow roost]

As long as you stick with the one Xbox gives you, yes, your first change is free.

[tired hare]

can someone help me find this name of a sgon on a video?

[trail harness]

Relogging into the Xbox account helps too

[mellow roost]

No.

[obsidian kayak]

What

[mellow roost]

There's a reason it costs money.

[plush mason]

what would be the reason? 🤔

[trail harness]

Prevent mass abuse

[mellow roost]

Because it takes a lot of server processes to change across all games and systems. It isn't like Discord.

[sour trail]

I just watched Tetris. Movie of the year IMO.

[obsidian kayak]

Nintendo lets you change it as much as you want on switch

[mellow roost]

Nintendo is Nintendo.

[trail harness]

People would also troll with gamertags if they could

[cinder veldt]

Nintendo also has a completely different system with their IDs

[plush mason]

making it paid doesn't stop the trolling, I believe it's due to server process

[obsidian kayak]

Sometimes a I’d is easier to type thin some peoples crazy gamer tags

People with XxXx or what ever in there name

[trail harness]

It does reduce it though

[mellow roost]

People just need to make names that are actually good and then they won't need to worry about changing it.

[trail harness]

Easier said than done

[mellow roost]

If people didn't think BoogerEater1998 was top class, they wouldn't complain it's a paid function.

[plush mason]

Xbox just gave me a great tag hopefully 🧲

[cinder veldt]

Make a good name and bam that’s you now, (also me having different names on all platforms)

[plush mason]

I still have the free change but I don't play online games so my tag doesn't really matter to me

[obsidian kayak]

Did they eat a booger in 1998?

[trail harness]

I probably did considering I'd have been 5 or 6 then depending on the month

But I never used names like that online lol

[lunar tartan]

98 was a good year bc I was born 😎

[desert sonnet]

My silliest name was Captain Chalupa. I should've kept that name heh

[mellow roost]

Just searched Xbox.

Of course people have the name I just meme'd. 😑

[plush mason]

lol

[trail harness]

Immaturity goes brr

[mellow roost]

"Oh is BOOGEREATER online? I can't wait to play with him!"

[lunar tartan]

Mmm boogers

[mellow roost]

I had one hell of a gamertag (on a different account) back when I was like, 12. But again, I was 12. The immaturity kinda slides under the radar.

[foggy skiff]

gamertag of the year, right there

[limpid flicker]

People who were 12 when there were online games. Couldn't be me.

[lunar tartan]

There’s a blizzard on the way maybe we should’ve tip more 😅

[halcyon stratus]

Do not kill your DoorDash er.

[plush mason]

Phill Spencer 🍎 .

[foggy skiff]

I've only had 2 gamertags the entire time I've been with Xbox, Darth Laker and my current one

[green laurel]

I want to like mlb the show but my blindness is showing when I can't hit the ball 😭😭

[foggy skiff]

me irl

[plush mason]

how painful is playing a shooter game with a controller and no aim assist? It's impossible for me

[lunar tartan]

This doesn’t have anything to do with console wars. The PS person who does the presentation for them is so monotonous

[mellow roost]

It's awful. I never play without aim assist.

[plush mason]

same

[obsidian kayak]

Have you always noticed kids on Xbox always have gamer tags with 2 words put together

[foggy skiff]

no, because I don't play with others

[mellow roost]

The only games I've ever played where it felt acceptable to play without aim assist was Watch_Dogs and Ghost Recon: Future Soldier. Those games have a really solid aim system for thumbsticks.

[tired hare]

is there a way to stream his Xbox gameplay on discord or will it be added soon?

[long maple]

loved Future Soldier

[trail harness]

In some games, assists actually make me worse. Like in FH5 traction and stability control tend to slow me down

[desert sonnet]

So I'm not an other then Coffee? 😡

[foggy skiff]

you ghosted me

[mellow roost]

All the assists in Forza do actually cut power to your vehicle.

[desert sonnet]

Nooo I apologized

[long maple]

if nothing has been announced then nobody knows @tired hare

[desert sonnet]

I felt like crap

[tired hare]

thx

[plush mason]

I had to finish the entire Watch Dogs 2 with aim assist otherwise I would miss 99% of my shots lol

[trail harness]

those two assists in particular made the game harder for me with most cars not easier lol

[foggy skiff]

that's what happens when you ghost Coffee

[tired hare]

because when I connect my Xbox account to discord it tells me that I accept the feature to broadcast my screen

[plush mason]

now I am waiting for my controller so I can play Sniper Elite 4 as it doesn't have kbm support, I really hope that there is aim assist on this game

[desert sonnet]

https://tenor.com/view/too-much-rain-mei-my-neighbor-totoro-rain-over-the-rain-gif-13595855

[foggy skiff]

she gon' drown

[lunar tartan]

@mellow roost I think we are gonna get all fresh everything 😅

[mellow roost]

Maybe.

I feel bad for the dasher considering I know you probably didn't tip.

And they gotta sit in this garbage weather.

[lunar tartan]

The $5 was only for the tip

[mellow roost]

Oh. So you got the entire thing for free, minus the tip?

[lunar tartan]

Everything else was covered by the discount yup

[mellow roost]

Impressive.

[lunar tartan]

That’s why I was saying I hope they still pay him for his time

[mellow roost]

Well they better.

I know how poorly these delivery apps pay, they better still get full credit for these.

[lunar tartan]

Yeah I feel like doordash does a little better than ubereats but still

[frank arrow]

nooooo why is quantum break leaving game pass 😔

[long maple]

no announcement as to why, but with there being a TV Show inside the game I am guessing licensing

cause like Alan Wake Microsoft gave that game back to Remedy

without info though nobody knows anything.

or could be related to the actor who died recently

Ark 2 delayed? to end of 2024

says it here :- https://survivetheark.com/index.php?/articles.html/community-crunch-355-ark-roadmap-evo-event-and-more-r2075/

[wooden vector]

I'm so backed up on gamepass that I don't end up playing a game until it's leaving lol. I had to panic play Guardians of the Galaxy

[long maple]

yeah I got plenty to play and more games added all the time

Kylie - first Ark is being remastered coming out August 2023. PS5/XS/PC

the game is called the logo above for remaster

[mellow roost]

Oh? Interesting.

I'll have to read this, one sec.

[lunar tartan]

I have a pimple on the roof of my mouth 👀

[long maple]

shame about Ark2 delay though. but we saw no gameplay so not surprising

[mellow roost]

?????

[hollow vine]

holy xbox live gold is a scam

[mellow roost]

It's not.

[lunar tartan]

Dasher will be here in 3ish minutes

[hollow vine]

i just wasted 39.99 dollars for nothing

[mellow roost]

First of all, what were you trying to do?

[long maple]

what are you buying for that much?

[hollow vine]

smh, should’ve got gamepass 🤦🏾

[hollow vine]

i didn’t buy it someone else bought it for me

bc they was telling me it was good and i thought it was somewhat like gamepass

[weary solar]

Feel free to drop your Game Pass Ultimate or Game Pass for PC code in #xbox-game-pass for others to grab from there, and note that it is for new subscribers only.

[long maple]

well yeah Xbox Live Gold is just the Online portion that you need to play Multiplayer for games you purchased. everything else thats Free to Play doesnt need it.

[hollow vine]

did nothing but give me 3 free games

[hollow vine]

oh yea they needa get their money back cause no way

[long maple]

I thought you only had a 360?

[halcyon stratus]

You’ve eaten too much candy!

[hollow vine]

i said earlier i was buying the xbox one today

and i had bought the one s

[long maple]

well I think it still works if you buy a month of Ultimate everything you own will add together if its the first time. so you get Game Pass etc

[hollow vine]

ultimate of live or ultimate of gamepass

[long maple]

Ultimate Game Pass, which includes Console and PC Game Pass, EA Play, Gold (Live) and Cloud

[hollow vine]

yep shoulda got gamepass

well that’s 40 dollars down the drain, ima make sure i don’t make that mistake again

[slender ore]

Is it gold for a year?

[slender ore]

Ye, look more into things before buying

[hollow vine]

the dude at the store convinced me fully to get the gold live

[hollow vine]

no six months

[slender ore]

Do you have any paid games yet?

[hollow vine]

no im only playing free games like cod war zone and fortnite

well not at the moment

[rancid urchin]

[slender ore]

Well, damn, that's unfortunate

[long maple]

well if you can get Ultimate for one month as I said it will convert all the Gold time to Ultimate so you get 7 Months of Game Pass Ultimate total.. you can do this anytime. its always been like that. you can check the Xbox Support pages if you like

[marble kiln]

[marble kiln]

[marble kiln]

[halcyon stratus]

no, but there is a special verbal greeting you are supposed to do

I'll post it.... IDC, they can kick me out of the secret club if they want to...

[merry palm]

all the hip clubs have special handshakes...

[halcyon stratus]

"I'm an ambassador, you have to listen to me, I'll get you banned from xbox and all of microsoft, I know bill gates!"

[halcyon stratus]

like on the steam store selling the little things you can get in the game?

[merry palm]

i assumes it was fake game money

idk

[marble kiln]

Yeah
i only spent 4 dollars on Mann up tickets

[limpid flicker]

If getting banned on XBOX also (always? sometimes?) means banning the whole MS account, that's gotta be a hard blow.

[merry palm]

not a game i play

[mellow roost]

I AM DAVE, YOGNAUT!

the ambassador handbook isn't part of the xbox discord lol

[marble kiln]

yeah some itmes go crazy in value cus i got an ausstralium golden frying pan

[random tartan]

Oh is it on the site

[inner arrow]

Dave is in another castle

[random tartan]

Oh cheers

[desert sonnet]

Dave.. wasn't there someone here with that name? Sounds familiar

[long maple]

yes

[halcyon stratus]

that's cool. I think like the most expensive thing I ever sold was only $10, and that was only maybe a ocuple times. not enough to brag about lol

[limpid flicker]

I've never made more than maybe 20p from card selling on Steam. I don't really care for the system. It seems designed to ensure that not everyone can have what they want.

[limpid flicker]

If it's the one I am thinking of, they still hang on PSCord.

[marble kiln]

uts like a mini stock system

[inner arrow]

I made a lot from steam cards

[merry palm]

[marble kiln]

Yeah i sell weapons cards i dont do

[inner arrow]

The anime girl cards bring around 4 bucks at times

[edgy swan]

Bro I’m really trying to like Star Wars fallen order but it is such a hassle trying to find every single objective with this TERRIBLE map

[inner arrow]

https://tenor.com/view/ok-opm-one-punch-man-saitama-alright-gif-15805264

[limpid flicker]

Yes, the map is a problem for me too.

[merry palm]

im a cheater and use guides on games lol

[mellow roost]

Is it one of those maps with no difference between elevation?

[inner arrow]

Same. Guides helped me a lot of times

[edgy swan]

I hate having to use a guide this much though

[marble kiln]

its funner when you dont use the map at least for me
except for games like skyrim where fast travel is nessacary so have an enjoyable experience IMO

[edgy swan]

@mellow roost yes and it’s just a completely confusing mess it’s hard to explain. Honestly worst map I’ve ever experienced in a game

[limpid flicker]

Definitely hard to tell elevation. Not sure if I can say "no difference" but minimal and unclear.

[desert sonnet]

You know what game has the best map? The Godfather 2 game. That map was so cool. It was a 3d map and you can zoom in and stuff. So cool

[marble kiln]

someone made a topographic style map online lemme find it

[mellow roost]

Just looked it up, and yeah, this...isn't...fantastic.

[edgy swan]

@marble kiln i try my hardest to find it without using map but sometimes the game is totally unclear about where to go. Not that the map is that helpful

Yeah the holographic style is terrible too such an eyesore to actually use

[limpid flicker]

The Horizon Zero Dawn map is very cool. There's a distinct third dimension to it.

[desert sonnet]

Top 10 game maps baybeeee 😎

[edgy swan]

I like the action, story, and environment but spending like 75% of the time just walking around in circles trying to find next objective or getting back to ship has almost got me wanting to quit the game

[mellow roost]

#1 goes to Metroid/Castlevania style maps.

[desert sonnet]

Yea Metroid had some good ones

[long maple]

yes the map confused me so much, looking forward to the next game doesnt seem to have that issue and well its got fast-travel should make it easier

[warped pendant]

oh god that level

[edgy swan]

@long maple yea I see the map is most common complaint in this game. Fast travel will be a huge help especially since u return to planets so often and the backtracking to ships after going so far in a map can be brutal at times

I’m on Zeffo right now and it’s the absolute worst @warped pendant

[long maple]

I finished the game, missed tons of collectibles though and not bothering to attempt

[warped pendant]

Zeffo is nowhere near as bad as Kashyyk

Kashyyk is the worst level in the game

[edgy swan]

Only been to Kashyyk once so far so could change

[mellow roost]

The Fallen Order map reminds me of the map in Metroid Prime, except MP did it just fine. I know the image makes it look weird, but having the ability to pan solves the entire issue the image might present.

[warped pendant]

you only have to go there once to progress

but going back to clean up..it's awful

[edgy swan]

@long maple definitely not bothering with collectibles when I’m done with the story and I usually try and get most achievements

[limpid flicker]

I actually find the Metroid Prime map challenging, but it's so clearly and obviously better than Fallen Order.

[warped pendant]

the biggest issue is that 3D maps are generally just all around awful in every game

[limpid flicker]

I would concur.

[edgy swan]

@mellow roost wow it does look a lot like that

[mellow roost]

Okay, I have a question then.

Have you ever felt like you've somehow flipped the Prime map upside down?

[warped pendant]

one of the best changes to Dead Space remake was adopting the Resident Evil style 2D map

[mellow roost]

Then you pan the map and it rights itself? It's the weirdest frickin' thing.

[edgy swan]

@warped pendant you only have to go to kashyyk once the entire story?

[warped pendant]

Most of the locations in the game are one-and-done tbf

[cerulean basin]

Well, I can now say I have played a bit of League of Legends with a friend. Can't say my opinion has changed much 😛

[warped pendant]

there's just a lot to do in them

[limpid flicker]

Yes, definitely... I really like MP, but I spend a lot of time lost.

[warped pendant]

the Kashyyk plot's pretty open-and-shut though story-wise.

[edgy swan]

Oh I already am back at zeffo for a second time so I assumed it was multiple times

[mellow roost]

I getchu. While I think it's much better than the Fallen Order map, one thing that always happened to me playing Prime is I'd lose "focus" on the perspective of the map, and it would go all wonky.

Like that illusion of the ballerina. Is she spinning left or right? Except it's "is this the roof or the floor?"

[limpid flicker]

TBH I started to think "concepts like up and down... what are they really?"

[mellow roost]

XD

It happened with such frequency that I'm kinda wondering if it was on purpose.

[limpid flicker]

Well, in space up and down are entirely arbitrary.

[mellow roost]

For sure.

[limpid flicker]

You can define them best by whatever the largest gravitational pull near you is, but that can change if you move a bit.

[plain parrot]

u so right

[random tartan]

Can anyone recommend any good sword fighting games like for honour, chivalry, aragami, etc?

[desert sonnet]

They announced new dlc for Vampire Survivors

[long maple]

yeah cant wait

[limpid flicker]

Great! I wasn't using my life for anything!

[desert sonnet]

That is gonna be sooo great. I'm happy 🙂

[long maple]

April turning into a busy gaming month

[mellow roost]

Kingdom Come: Deliverance, Mount & Blade Warband, and Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord.

Inhales

BANNERLOOOORD!

[limpid flicker]

I tried to play one of those Mount and Blade games on PC, couldn't get into it. Want to try again.

[mellow roost]

They're hard to get into I'm not even gunna pretend.

The learning curve is pretty steep. I mean, I'll be honest, I just grow troops and fight and stuff. I don't even play the rest of the game.

[random tartan]

Thanks

[desert sonnet]

All my playthroughs turn into me becoming a travelling merchant who sells anything I come across, as long as I get a good price. I'm like a medieval trucker 🤠

[mellow roost]

I mean there's also The Elder Scrolls but I don't think that's what you're asking for.

[limpid flicker]

The combat is not great in The Elder Scrolls. I just tried to abbreviate that, but it feels wrong now.

[merry palm]

Meeee

But not me

[random tartan]

Yeah just mainly looking for medieval games which are online or have a campaign in first person

[desert sonnet]

There's Medieval Dynasty. That's first person but it's light on the campaign and more focused on building a small town with survival mechanics

Next medieval first person game I'm personally looking forward to is Avowed but who knows when that's coming out 😞

[long maple]

might not have long to find out

[random tartan]

Is it free roam?

[long maple]

April now, so 2 months to wait lol

oh hey that Ark remaster is going to be UE5

[left gust]

There ain't nothing better than red beans with louisiana crystal hot sauce and corn bread man. mmm-MMMMM

[mellow roost]

there's nothing better than [...] corn bread

FTFY 😝

Oops. Sent one too many.

[merry palm]

Mmm corn bread

[limpid flicker]

I can make it myself, and I have... but I wish there was somewhere I could just buy it.

It isn't so much a thing here.

[left gust]

Where's here?

[limpid flicker]

The UK.

[desert sonnet]

I wouldn't mind that so much if Starfield didn't get delayed. Now I'm just hungry for more info on any game since I wasnt looking forward to Redfall

[mellow roost]

I'll mess up some corn bread. God damn, I'll eat the whole tray if you don't keep an eye on me. Sweet corn bread with some milk? HAUH.

[long maple]

yeah next dev direct for Starfield is June too

[desert sonnet]

But the release is still in September 😭

[long maple]

lol

you will be busy its okay. plenty coming out.

[lunar tartan]

I just told Kylie everyone in the house is feeling sick and she goes “well I’m not”. It’s like she forgot she literally had covid and only had symptoms for like 3ish days

[left gust]

Preeeaching

[desert sonnet]

True. I bet the game will still be buggy considering their "thousand" planet thing.

[long maple]

not sure whats going on tbh

[left gust]

Huh. Kinda shocked tbh, thought UK would have a good bit of red beans

[long maple]

you see Ark 2 delayed to next year, and no gameplay till then either

they are Remastering Ark using UE5 coming in August. but looks like you have to pay again and the DLC too

[limpid flicker]

I didn't mean to say red beans aren't a thing here. I mean cornbread.

[mellow roost]

Nah see, I had symptoms for like 12 hours, then they went away.

Then I mocked the covid and it was like HUH and hit me for another 12 or so.

[left gust]

You know what's surprisingly a good rpg game. Ellex, never heard of it before until today I saw it on sale for $13 and ngl it's a pretty good THQ Nordic game.

[desert sonnet]

Never heard of it either. Lemme look it up

[mellow roost]

Elex is severely underrated, you're right.

[left gust]

Ooooh, nah, that's my bad brah. I assumed it was red beans.

[lunar tartan]

See that’s why you’re not sick 😎

[mellow roost]

The combat system...takes some getting used to, but the concepts the game offers is pretty sweet.

[left gust]

The gameplay reminds me of Gothic too

[desert sonnet]

Hmm looks like Fable 1

[mellow roost]

Instead of a traditional good/evil system, there's a...what's it called again? Heart/Cold?

[limpid flicker]

Cornbread is incredible, with the existence of people who don't tolerate wheat / gluten well, you'd think it would be popular everywhere.

[left gust]

Yeah, I've had coldness raised or coldness lowered.

[mellow roost]

Cold is like, not necessarily evil, just very cold-cut, logical choices. The emotional choices are the opposite.

[desert sonnet]

I dislike cornbread 😅

[left gust]

😦

[mellow roost]

https://tenor.com/view/huh-what-confused-gif-24490283

[limpid flicker]

Then you're gonna hate my latest idea for cornbread-flavoured ice cream.

[desert sonnet]

It's too dang sweet and the bread part is firmer than I'd like

[mellow roost]

Drier than a Popeyes biscuit too. That's what the milk is for though.

[desert sonnet]

Actually now that I think about it...

[limpid flicker]

The extra firmness is exactly what I like about it.

[desert sonnet]

I want to say that I actually hate cornbread

[wooden vector]

Before popeyes blew up there was only 1 in my city and I swear the biscuits were incredible. They're garbage now

[raven ridge]

I haven’t had corn bread in a while

[foggy skiff]

get out

Among us turned everyone into pony’s for April fools

Hard to tell if someone is faking a task due to there really long lol

Yah but among us activated it early for some reason

Elgato already posted theirs

I still can't get over how much Yoshimo in BG2 looks like my friend. It's so uncanny I don't know if I'm gunna be able to keep this dude in my party with his portrait giving me that grin the whole time. 😂

I remember Saints Row did a April Fool's dlc announcement that turned real. That was fun

[limpid flicker]

IKR. Someone is bound to announce something I want desperately today, and then it's a joke.

[halcyon stratus]

yea but I''d buy a streamdeck pillow

what about a gently used stream deck pedal scented candle?

Oh yea, is this discord doing anything for April fools?

[long maple]

likely wont find out till later

Pretty sure that won't happen this year lol

I got big googly eyes to put above the kids toilet tonight

[wooden vector]

No, I mean the reveal + audience reaction moment which is the whole reason I watched e3

We watched it in here last year and had a great time

I plan to again so long as nothing irl comes up

[wooden vector]

I'm so down for a group watch

[inner arrow]

As always I am up for it.

[merry palm]

We even had a dedicated chat for it so we didn't flood general 😂

[cyan quiver]

If we do have a Summer Games Fest discussion, I'll need to chop off my fingers.

[merry palm]

That seems a little excessive lol

[sage ice]

more than a little

[cyan quiver]

You can't type without any fingers.

[sage ice]

yes you can

[merry palm]

But the point is to type...

[inner arrow]

Let’s hope for more amazing games again. And let’s hope that if Xbox is not showing anything we don’t get more articles about how Microsoft is doomed and rumors about Microsoft selling xbox and stuff

[merry palm]

Oh we still will.. click bait sells

[wooden vector]

Xbox is doing their show right after so I doubt they'll be there

[cyan quiver]

I'd rather just watch than type. The stuff I type doesn't accurately represent what I think because I type so fast, so chopping off my fingers would be the best solution

[violet marsh]

[inner arrow]

Just vc like some of us do at these events

[merry palm]

That promotion is over, for one, and fraud more importantly

[fiery python]

It's fraud and that offer has been removed any way.

Most likely because so many people made alts to get it cheaper.

[violet marsh]

Brokie and it hasn't u get the option every new acc u make 1 time

[cyan quiver]

No mic.

[fiery python]

Nope, the offer got removed worldwide

Nah bro I did it last week when my ultimate on my main run out

[fiery python]

Yes, it ended around a week ago.

[merry palm]

Can still listen in and type!

[violet marsh]

I do it every month so I play for 1 for months not 10.99

[fiery python]

I suggest you stop talking about committing fraud.

[violet marsh]

Its not fraud its being smart

[fiery python]

It's fraud. End of discussion.

Also the end of your fraud now the offer ended.

On the other hand, that Xbox 360 I won from a bid yesterday? It hasn't even shipped yet...starting to get worried that I'm being scammed

[haughty inlet]

Wish you luck that it isn’t a scam

[halcyon stratus]

you won an auction yesterday.... not shipping today isn't that big of a deal?

[cyan quiver]

Yes, but...not even an order tracking number? Odd

[halcyon stratus]

it some times takes me up to a week to get a package posted. it is a lot of time / effort to pack something up and get to the store...

[sage ice]

And it is Friday/The weekend

[inner arrow]

Sometimes it takes a few days yeah

[merry palm]

Especially if it's a shop that does a bunch of things. They tend to get a bunch to go all at once

[inner arrow]

If you bought it from a person they might have other things to do first like taking care of kids and stuff

[fiery python]

At least it's waiting to ship. I had one go out on Tuesday, the day I bought it, with guaranteed delivery on Thursday. Tracking info says it was picked up on Wednesday and never moved. 😫

Had to contact Royal Mail and it looks like it finally started moving around 9pm last night (Friday for me) so will hopefully either get here today or Monday now.

[inner arrow]

Overwatch 2 has an april fools event with googley eyes characters and completely op character buffs lol

[fiery python]

Ah yes, it's 'Believe even less on the internet than usual day' 😄

[cyan quiver]

The site did say 3-5 business days. I don't even know what a business day is, but I'm guessing it means every day except on weekend & holidays

[fiery python]

Business days are Monday to Friday

Outside of public holidays

[obsidian kayak]

I wish Xbox would release a series Minecraft edition the packaging/console for the one s Minecraft edition was so cool lol

[wooden vector]

I would love to play a constantly updating game like fortnite, but I want nothing to do with any of the ones available lol

Borderlands 3 having halloween and christmas themes during the holiday months is probably the closest thing I've played

[cyan quiver]

Honestly, I would love a new console that makes a special sound when the console is turned on/off

[merry palm]

I'm not a huge fan of holiday themed stuff most of the time. But I like new content thats for a silly 'holiday' like April fool's day

[mellow roost]

They did that for the limited edition 360s. The Star Wars one made an R2D2 sound when you turned it on instead of the beep, for example.

[obsidian kayak]

Have you heard of the taco bell one s? It would make the Taco Bell bong sound when you turned it on lol

[cyan quiver]

I know that the Halo Reach 360 made a special sound when it was turned on/off. I'm just saying, I wish we had more consoles that made special sounds when they're turned on/off instead of the usual sound

[mellow roost]

Yeah, for sure. It would be neat to be able to customize it. Maybe some day.

[merry palm]

Phaser sounds ftw

[mellow roost]

Also, stealing in Baldur's Gate 2 is comically overpowered and I don't even understand how this left the press. 😂

[halcyon stratus]

nothing is better than the taco bell xbox startup

[mellow roost]

Lmao, I forgot about that one.

[cyan quiver]

Would be nice to make my PC play any sound when I start it up

[pastel marten]

i loved my old cyberpunk xbox one x startup sound

[mellow roost]

I'm sure there's probably some way to do it, but it probably isn't user-friendly at all.

[halcyon stratus]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5TSDBtAoChM

Omg what about...

[pastel marten]

the loud mechanical whirring was so weird yet comforting

[merry palm]

It would be hilarious

[obsidian kayak]

I could really go for some horchata right now 😂 idk why but I’m having cravings for it

[mellow roost]

Horchata would be nice, yeah.

[cyan quiver]

On a sidenote, the good thing about the Xbox 360 is how cheap physical games & accessories are (except for some rare ones & the wireless adapter for some reason)

[obsidian kayak]

They have it at am pm but that’s not the same as real authentic horchata

[cyan quiver]

Oh, and the Xbox 360 faceplates. Those were really good...wish we had more stuff like that

If Icky knew about some of the Halo Xbox 360 faceplates that came out officially, he would be saying "Darn, I wish I had that"

[queen stump]

After reading the first word, I automatically started singing "It Has To Be This Way"

[merry palm]

[earnest relic]

ik most of my red hood lore from the arkham games tbh

[queen stump]

Fellow Arkham games enjoyer?!

Which one's your favourite?

[earnest relic]

i got all the games except the vr game

[earnest relic]

arkham knight

[wooden vector]

Knight is insanely underrated. I could write an essay on it

[queen stump]

Very nice, very nice. How many of them have you achieved 100% on?

[earnest relic]

ik many people don't like it but it's just so amazing to me

[wooden vector]

The "there's too much batmobile" argument is nonsense

[earnest relic]

sadly none yet,almost 100% on knight tho

[queen stump]

It's definitely one of the lesser liked entries. I, for one, loved how it capped off the trilogy. The one that's incredibly underrated is Arkham Origins.

[earnest relic]

i've done all DLC aswell

[queen stump]

[earnest relic]

arkham origins was my first arkham game,i still have it on disc for ps3

[wooden vector]

I thought origins was alright. I just played it this past December finally. I had issues adapting to it after playing knight so much

[earnest relic]

i have multiple copys of the other games

[queen stump]

I can agree on the statement, to an extent.

[earnest relic]

the batmobile was such a great thing to add honestly

[wooden vector]

The story forces a lot of batmobile down your throat, but you can choose to ignore it for a good chunk of the game. Regardless, it's so well made and feels so good to use. I just don't get the hate

[queen stump]

The game was practically made around the Batmobile. As cool as it and as well done as it was, it sadly came at the cost of very weak boss fights and underwhelming "predator" encounters.

[wooden vector]

Deathstroke was the biggest example

[queen stump]

[wooden vector]

What a disappointment

[earnest relic]

yeah tbh deathstoke was suprisingly easy

[obsidian kayak]

Y’all if you looking for a series x check the #gaming-deals

[earnest relic]

he's WAY harder in origins in my opinion

[queen stump]

Origins absolutely nailed the boss fight encounters.

[wooden vector]

The fight with Arkham Knight was decent, but that game needed something similar to the Origins Deathstroke fight

[queen stump]

Absolutely.

[wooden vector]

I liked all of them except Copperhead. I HATED that fight so much

[earnest relic]

same,she was so damn annoying

[nova elk]

I have a hardware question. Everytime I try to download a game on my Xbox one s, it starts then stops nonstop. Can't find a way to fix it.

[queen stump]

Copperhead's fight was where I lost my save on my first I Am the Knight Mode run.

[wooden vector]

Gross

[earnest relic]

i now really wanna play through the whole arkham series

[queen stump]

[earnest relic]

i'd have to setup my ps3 tho

[queen stump]

Go for 100%, one of the best experiences, in my opinion.

[earnest relic]

just to play origins

[wooden vector]

Asylum is my first 100% ever, but also my only Arkham 100%

[frail osprey]

just got a xbox today bro

[obsidian kayak]

Ok palptine

[queen stump]

You end up learning so much through just collecting riddles and doing sidequests. It's one of the better games to go for 100% completions.

[wooden vector]

It prepares you for everything yet to come. It's perfect

[earnest relic]

nah screw riddler in city and knight tho

[wooden vector]

Knight riddler trophies aren't as bad as city. I couldn't find the patience to get all of city's

[earnest relic]

i keep installing knight just to search for the trophies then i go delete it again

[queen stump]

[wooden vector]

I got all the Knight riddler trophies on ps4 and xbox, I know them like my own house now lol

[wooden vector]

LEGENDARY

[earnest relic]

i can't even get to continue the riddler story on city,i just wanna go rescue the next person but it won't let me

[outer marlin]

Hey all. How goes it?

[queen stump]

Is this for City?

[earnest relic]

no bloody way,holy crap

[wooden vector]

The fact that you did all the batmobile courses says it all

[earnest relic]

yeah

[queen stump]

[queen stump]

If it's the last guy, you're probably in for a long RNG run around the map. I recommend doing everything else, while you're scaping the map. You'll eventually come across one. There's no real way to trigger them, sadly. You can also pause and look at the map every few minutes to see if there's any nearby. Sometimes, they'll be across the map, but you'll have more than enough time to get to them.

I remember having to do this on the PS3, specifically.

[earnest relic]

it's the 2nd or 3rd i think

thx for the advice aswell

[queen stump]

Oh, then do them as you see them. They're random, so there's no telling when the next one will appear.

[earnest relic]

oh,i swear it said something about i have to do more riddler missions to find the next room

[grand pumice]

Imagine not being in a tornado rn

[earnest relic]

but i was confused so i just looked around for the trophies

[wooden vector]

I'm not in a tornado....rn

[grand pumice]

I am 🫶🏻

[left gust]

Tbh always wanted to see what it would ve like to witness a tornado

[wooden vector]

Your wifi is intense then

[sage ice]

not something you want to see really

[grand pumice]

The lights are flickering, fun

[wooden vector]

There's a tornado near you and you decided....discord

[left gust]

Well like, inside a heavy truck. Saw these storm chasers sitting out just the edge of a tornados path when it traveled passed them.

[queen stump]

Oh, yes. ||The Riddler hostages.|| You'll want to chase those along the way. They're fairly easy to find, especially if you can interrogate green highlighted thugs, who show a lot of the riddles around the area. But yeah, that's the jist. Do let me know how it goes. (Spoilers for Batman Arkham City)

[grand pumice]

Yes, best possible decision

[desert sonnet]

Tornadoes look so scary

[wooden vector]

Respect

[grand pumice]

It’s fun and windy

[desert sonnet]

I remember hearing that everything looks green before a tornado strikes down

[grand pumice]

No, just tons of thunder

[desert sonnet]

Yes 😏

[wooden vector]

Not green. Yellow.

[desert sonnet]

Hangon lemme pull up my source

[earnest relic]

so i just interrogate the thugs and then i can find the hostages??

[desert sonnet]

https://tenor.com/view/patrick-star-gif-5455397

[wooden vector]

My dad works in a tornado factory, so....

[grand pumice]

Hold up let me just pull up my actual footage in 7 seconds

Nvm

[desert sonnet]

Yea I bet it was green, hehehe

[grand pumice]

ITS WINDY AND THUNDER

[wooden vector]

It was purple, according to science

[grand pumice]

Yes purple

[wooden vector]

See

[queen stump]

Some of them were crazy tough with times. The ones I struggled with were the more combat focused trophies. Specifically, the one for getting through an entire combat map arounds flawlessly and with Catwoman, Batman, Robin and Nightwing. The nature of the game's mechanics can sometimes be the deciding factor in a lot of circumstances and it gets really frustrating when you lose the combo on the last round.

[wooden vector]

That and the "use 15 moves in 1 freeflow" I never even attempted

Brutality 101 it was called

[queen stump]

Essentially, yes. Interrogate green thugs, they highlight more riddles on the map for you to solve. Solve enough and you unlock the location to the next hostage.

[earnest relic]

aaahh oki thx,i'll install city back now so when i feel like it i'll go play

[queen stump]

Every Arkham game has that trophy to some capacity. Though, Knight's iteration was the easiest. You didn't actually have to get around a 15x combo, since it counts both gadget and combo variatons. In essence, you can unlock the achievement by the 8x combo counter.

[queen stump]

Amytime! Lemme know how it goes and if you need to know anything else. Best of luck.

[earnest relic]

can i add you so we can talk more about the batman universe and possible some other areas of DC??

[queen stump]

Of course.

[earnest relic]

thxx

[wooden vector]

Maybe I'll do it if I come back to the game. I'm at like 1200 gp for knight this misc stuff here and there that I just couldn't bring myself to do at that point lol

[peak flower]

The people who have back 4 blood on Xbox, does anyone know how I can change card background

[obsidian kayak]

Do y’all work for my grocery store there playing that song now lol

[peak flower]

I should probably use #xbox-game-pass for it but idk

[desert sonnet]

I haven't played that game in soooo long

I moved onto Darktide instead

[queen lotus]

It’s one of the menu tabs

[wooden vector]

No, but your store has good taste in music

[peak flower]

Aight then, I’ll check it

cuz I am noob to the game lol

[queen lotus]

I played the whole game on easy.

[desert sonnet]

Speaking of zombie games.. State of Decay 3... Where are youuu 😭

[queen lotus]

State of Delay

[peak flower]

That game idk if I like it

[formal hawk]

Anything good on pc game pass?

[queen lotus]

Yes

[queen stump]

Yeah, I totally get that. It can be a lot.

[formal hawk]

Also does ultimate game pc let me play goldeneye and other Xbox games on pc or do I need to Xbox ( and games ) to get use out of ultimate game pass?

[fiery python]

You can only play Xbox games on PC using cloud gaming.

But a number of the games on Xbox console Game Pass are also on PC.

You can check which games are on each platform here - https://www.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-game-pass/games

[peak flower]

Also, Tysm

[formal hawk]

Weird I thought game pass added golden eye but I don’t see it anywhere

[peak flower]

Time to grind on those badass card background 😎🤪

[fiery python]

It did, on console.

[formal hawk]

Oh RIP

[fiery python]

It's also available on cloud gaming.

[wooden vector]

It's still not possible to stream straight from a SXS to discord without a capture card right?

[queen lotus]

Capture card isn’t direct/straight either. But no.

[wooden vector]

Got it, thx

[elfin cairn]

Is mw2 the same as mw1

[fiery python]

No

[elfin cairn]

Not the multiplayer version

[cedar bobcat]

speaking of mw2, lol- anyone got any tips for a noob?

[fiery python]

Practice

[elfin cairn]

I only have played the multiplayer of'mw2

[wooden vector]

Use 1 gun until it gets good....then use another one. That's basically what the whole model is built around now

[elfin cairn]

Of the 2?

I thought it was the same warzone

[wooden vector]

Smgs are super OP and they're not trying to hide it

[final cove]

Repitition and try not to get too discouraged from losing

I'm sure there's also some great tips and tricks vids on YouTube depending on how serious you are

[cedar bobcat]

yea i've been watching a boat ton of videos and whatnot, and a few streamers just to get an idea of game play

i just don't do well with toxic people while trying to learn, so i chicken out most days

[final cove]

Toxic people are ALWAYS gonna be there, especially in a game like CoD when you do get good and start cooking everyone.

[cedar bobcat]

yeee, i mean i've used it to get motivated to really invest in learning fps in geneal. just always looking for more insight on how to improve

[final cove]

Having a good monitor/tv with a high refresh rate helps too. Isn't an end all but definitely helps

Haven't played MW2 outside of Warzone but hitting the firing range and practicing your fundamentals is always a great move. I play a ton of Apex and still spend a lot of time on that firing range

[cedar bobcat]

yea we just replaced our tv lol, and i feel that- i love the apex firing range.

[wicked stag]

Happy April fools day

[final cove]

Good. Love it hard because that's how you get good lol

[cedar bobcat]

thats mort, it's not april fools yet for me, but will be in 30 mins

thanks* not thats

[final cove]

Forgot about April fools

[desert sonnet]

My sweater is red

SIKE! April Fool's! 🤣

Anyone else’s messages scuffed right now? On Xbox

I send a message and it says it sends but it’s not there if I go out of the guide and back in

Also messages are not getting marked as read 😂

[slender cove]

Hello everyone

In a real dark place rn just hoping to talk to someone to help not be in a bad place mentally

[untold spade]

That sucks, I'm sorry to hear that. Been there before.

[slender cove]

Thanks, it does suck, difficult to not be there

[untold spade]

It really is, are you nearby any family or friends that can distract you? That always helps me, that or listening to some calming music.

[slender cove]

Music was always my go to but it starts getting less and less when you've been doing it for years. Family isn't close nor are able to help. I wish I had friends

Hence why I'm trying here

[final cove]

Hey here's my cat

[slender cove]

Nice lol can I post a photo I don't see an option to?

[untold spade]

Baby cat is very baby!!! ❤️

[slender cove]

Yeah how did you do that?

I genuinely haven't played halo

Doesn't seem that interesting tbh

But maybe I'll give it a try in the future

[green panther]

Both diablo4 bosses we didnt meet in the Beta in our playthrough🤔.

[outer haven]

Halo is the best

[green panther]

Opinion

[scarlet river]

Halo? That's the guy in fortnite.

[green panther]

Its also a populair song😁

[scarlet river]

He's pretty cool. I hear he doesn't afraid of anything.

[upper meteor]

I hear that it's a little bit like call of duty

[scarlet river]

I think he'd be a cool video game but ya it'll be too much of a Call of duty ripoff for me

[outer haven]

Is he the guy from Zelda /s

[scarlet river]

No that's Zelda

[obsidian kayak]

Link

Who is link?

how do i claim xbox code when i dont want to put in payment info

[obsidian kayak]

You don’t

[scarlet river]

And another thing, why can't Metroid crawl? What's up with that?

[outer haven]

lmao

[scarlet river]

Why do you always have to get his weapons and stuff back at every game? That's so boring!

[clever thicket]

my friend did somehow he contacted the contact support or whatever

and is dishonored good? i wanna hear from u guys

[outer haven]

On a serious note I've never actually played a Metroid game. I need to amend that in the near future

[autumn viper]

Trial codes require a payment method. The only way to use codes without having to put in billing info is to buy a code from a store.

[scarlet river]

Metroid seems like a cool guy

[autumn viper]

I think I’m gonna go pick out my sacrificial brain cells for today

The "why can't Metroid crawl" was a thing from the Wii U

There’s a website that archived all of miiverse

I'm really hoping we see. Metroid prime 4 get announced.

Though I also really want mp2 and 3 Remastered.

Mp1 Remastered is amazing.

[fiery python]

MP4 was already announced

[scarlet river]

Well, you know what I mean. More than just a logo.

The rule says don't use profanities. That's clear enough.
