One of the only really glaring flaws I can think of is weapon durability. Fuck that mechanic, it's never fun in ANY game that it's in.

Weapon Durability was my biggest gripe as I felt it did nothing to deliver on the game. I understand they put it in for the "survival" aspect of the world, but all it turned into was replace weapon (For instance Royal Greatsword) over and over once you max out the enemy tiers.

Hell even a cheap brand one can cost $90.

Would suck to buy that and it be just you cords or connector thingies.

If it were the cords and connectors to the battery terminals, I have a hard time believe the car would have cranked after the TC had the car jumped.

The answer I believe is no one knows what the hell the exact truth behind this virus is. There are too many experts with varying opinions to truly know what is going to go on until it happens. With this, you get the range of figures saying the worst is yet to come to the most optimistic of outcomes.

I only played FFXV release edition and it never the Royal Edition, so not I am not sure if it changed anything, but it did not feel as smooth to me. I think it just feels more natural to hit the button for an attack to me than just holding it the entire time like FFXV did. The party control in FFVII feels much better than FFXV as well.

Nioh needed more builds that could last the end game. You start hitting higher difficulties and you have to start perfecting a few build types or you do jack shit damage to the buffed enemies. This is the part I hate about Diablo style loot games.

I played the remaster of the game and never the original.

I just could not get into it. As you said, the controls left a little to be desired, and I felt that I missed out on the grand scale of the game. I figure it made a lot more impact if you played the original in the PS2 era vs trying to play the remaster after we have had so many games build a large detailed world.

Lul wut?

F1 drivers see 4g during a lap. I assure you, they're going fuckin fast.

While F1 cars do indeed go fast... I just figured I would step in to say that Gs are a measure of acceleration, not speed. Formula 1 racers typically experience the most Gs since their cars have the fastest acceleration and breaking as well as sharp cornering capabilities. All 3 of those factors can put heavy G-force on the car and driver.

Aside from the all ready mentioned:
Living space is another huge addition when you have kids. People will often have to get a larger house/apartment to support additional family members which brings higher mortgage payments or rent.

Also, goodluck not buying/paying for any outside school activities or hobbies your kid wants to participate in.
TopicIs there a difference between "try to" and "try and"?
eaglei3
02/09/20 9:16:05 AM
#10
After running each phrase through my head a few types, I feel like there is a slight difference to them.

In my mind, I feel like "try and" always means you are capable of doing the task but don't know if you will get to it from other circumstances, while "try to" can mean the same, while also potentially meaning that you are not sure you are skilled enough to do a task and will put your best effort forward in doing it.

For example:

If someone says they are going to "Try and cook", in my mind, I would feel they are going to take effort and cook a meal if they get time. Reason being is that "and" is typically a conjunction in language that can link parts of speech. So if someone said they are going to "Try and cook dinner tonight" I would think they are planning to cook dinner, and may or may not due to time.

If I hear her say they are going to "Try to cook dinner tonight", while it can mean the above, I would feel more worried they don't know how to cook that specific dinner and are attempting it.

Then there is also what happens when you throw other adverbs into the mix.

If I say I am going to "try hard and remember the meeting time," it sounds like I will "try hard" as an action and then "remember the meeting time" as two different actions with and being a definite conjunction again.

If I say I am going to "try hard to remember the meeting time" it sounds as if I will be "trying hard remembering" as once action.

So once again, the first sentence now sounds like someone is going to try hard and will remember the meeting, while the second one to me indicates there will be a possibility of forgetting the meeting.

But from which deck?

You are actually thinking of the wrong draw. It means you actually draw cards on paper. Now the question is what do you use to draw them. Pencil, Crayon, Marker, computer art? This is why the card is so powerful cause I can draw the strongest monsters and magic on my turn!!!

Gamers don't care about completing things a game asks them to do?

There is a major difference between completing what the game wants you to do versus some arbitrary requirement for a trophy. Like what does killing 1000 enemies have to do with completing the game? When the trophy list becomes a separate list of goals outside the game objective like this, some people just do not care.

Uncharted 4 has a few other trophies that a lot of people do not care to go for: Speedrun, a multiplayer one, a replay on harder difficulty one, and a couple others that are outside a normal play through of the game.

I don't know about this. If you knew something wrong was before the crash, I could not fathom what you feel as a father that your daughter's life is in trouble as well. I would go absolute shit crazy in that moment.

And also, this is a young person's life that was lost. It is not like it was an elderly married couple of 50+ years who die together peacefully on the same day.
