It's the ratio of action to inaction tbh.

You get like 14-15 minutes of actual action for a 3 hour game being played. NBA is so much better as a fan experience because the action to filler ratio is so much better.

Uploading a video?

Like, if a 3rd party decided to start a business of filtering videos through the automated DMCA takedown filters and informed users as to which parts of their video triggered the takedown so they could alter just those parts to avoid getting hit by the automated DMCA upon actually uploading their video.

Is there any access to the most commonly used Automated filters outside of trial and error with uploads and takedowns?

Yes, $2,000 would be a good thing, but it's not the time to legitimize Trump. Pass the $600 bill, then pass the $2,000 bill once Biden is in office. Short term pain for a better outcome long term.

Any reason why you dropped Aphria aside from the profit? I've been holding it for awhile and wasn't sure when to sell.

It's a safe long-term position honestly, I just needed the capital with more immediacy than that(I am starting a business). I also got out of MVIS at 2.30(And AMD at 16 a share...) and it's trading around 7 a share now, so if anything you should be encouraged at my ability to consistently exit prematurely.

Aleafia is slightly safer in that it's a much less volatile long term position and that it has signifcantly more production capability than it's currently valued at. It's also an absolute bargain at sub .40 a share. If the Cannabis market grows, it should be one of the largest gainers by volume when other players seek to increase their production capacity.

Bought 1000 shares of Aleafia following getting out on Aphria at 7.65(got in right around 4.)

A lot like with Aphria, this is a long term position, but even if it tanks no real damage done.

At least now that i did it again, terrydactyland has a semblance of coherent progression, and not much backtracking through mumbo and wumba's shit.

Grunty's industries? you can't even fucking ENTER the stage normally... you need to activate the train station and enter through there lol

Speaking of mumbo and wumba, i can't wait to have to deal with the bullshit that is turning into a washing machine and cleaning the rabbit's overalls all over the place...

Grunty industries, while terrible, gets some points from me for not resembling any other level in the franchise(Maybe rusty bucket bay?).

All I can think while navigating the mountain in the center of Terrydactyland is, "Click-clock wood, but terrible."

Don't get me wrong, they're both awful and easily the two worst stages in the game.

got the final boss second time, my first time with heat. I picked extreme measures but I'm not sure what it did besides giving megaera extra support attacks

the bow is stupid fucking broke

Each level of Extreme measures gives a boss a new "gimmick." You chose the first level, so now you get the Fury sister you're fightinf basically calling in MvC assists against you.

If you use Extreme measure 2, the hydra will change. And so on, and so forth.

Black 2 has so many good points where you can switch from main homie to main homie. Easily the best game without exp share, best level curve, comes with cutscenes breaks at points where you want them to be. Tons of pokemon available too. So many good/viable options to beat the game with.

Black 1 almost as good. Weaker endgame. Dumb freighter shit. Also, N/Ghestis sometimes just stomps you and your run is over.

Gen 6 has exp share, tons of good pivoting options. The ability to raise an entire team if you want. It's probably the easiest random if you don't alter any of the trainer settings, but it doesn't have the problems with pacing gen 7 has. Also, legendaries can be perma-mega's and that's incredibly sick.

Gen 7 would honestly be the best randomizer if not for cutscenes hell. Great selection, randomized totem pokemon, tons of area's with 5-6+ different wild pokemon. But holy shit. The cutscenes. I swear like 1/4th of your playtime in this game is spent watching Hop and Lillie putz around. Perma-mega'd legendaries are still awesome though.

Gen 3 has really good pacing for an older game. Doesn't really take that long to play to completion by any stretch. It's not very well balanced, so it's a lot easier to get screwed than any of the games that came before it, and you really suffer the lack of the physical special split that comes in gen 4 a lot of the time.

Gen 4 is lacking. Between the slow game speed, the lacking dex in HGSS and Diamond/Pearl being substantially worse to run than platinum, there's a lot of issues with this gen for randomizers. I guess if you wanted to run Kanto as well maybe HGSS wouldn't be as bad, but honestly, it's the biggest drop as far as playing the game vanilla to playing the game randomized goes.

Gen 1 and 2 are both too imbalanced to make good randomizers. There's just too many "bad" pokemon that you can't complete the game with, especially considering the difficulty of training up a team. Gen 2 is slightly lower because there's no where to grind if you do get stuck at endgame.

Gen 1/2 are honestly more fun vanilla a lot of the time.

Everything post Lake of Rage sucks in both games tbh.

Mahogany(mahogany) is an absolute joke of a city and gym. Ice path into Blackthorne has the worst level scaling in any Pokemon game.

Dragon's den is a boring sidetrack with Clair.

And Kanto is like if you took all the bones out of the actual Kanto and let it wobble around for a while.

You guys got any basic tips for someone not very used to the genre?

I'm guessing for example its better to keep upgrading one particular attack and stacking as many DPS boosts as possible?

Athena is a really good boon starting out, especially her dash.

Even without athena, dashing INTO the thing attacking you is often a really good play as you take advantage of the I-frames from it.

Synergies matter a lot, there's been runs where I just didn't have it working on my primary weapon, but my cast carried me to victory.

Good starting weapons to unlock to help you get a feel for things are

Aspect of Chiron(Bow)
Aspect of Eris(Gun)
Aspect of Posiedon(Sword)

Zues is a great boon on any weapon with low base damage, but there's a cool down on how frequently the lighting can strike opponents, making it a poor choice for Chiron and the like.

The biggest thing is that you want either a good dash skill or a good cast skill before the 4th floor. It makes dealing with the cramped quarters combat and the sheer number of enemies way easier.

For a lotta people I assume it took a decent amount of tries for first clear. I'm really used to the genre and fresh off Dead Cells (still need to beat 5BC and astrolab) so that might factor in here

Playing others of the same genre can help or hurt. Gungeon actually made me a little worse at Hades at the start because the focus in Hades is on DPS rather than raw survivability. I was too concerned with not getting hit at the start instead of optimising my build so I'm only in the same room with the scary baddies for half the amount of time.

3rd floor boss is literally a DPS check to make sure you're ready for the final boss IMO.

I don't like this idea that "New Game +" is the "real" game and the first run is for noobs.

Like, how about just make the first run sufficiently challenging

Well, because the narrative of the game doesn't conclude until you clear it 10 times.

That's like asking why an author decided to make a series of books instead of concluding everything in one novel.

The first run is plenty challenging when you're starting out. It takes about 20 runs on average for people to hit their first clear.

Playing a rogue like for "completions sake" is sorta counterintuitive to begin with. Maybe you just don't like the idea of the genre?

Let's see you clear Extreme measures 4 first.

Beating the game means you've cleared the tutorial. The challenge ramps up from here.

Of course, you don't HAVE to turn up the heat, but everyone you don't know and have never met will judge you for it.

Kotor2 was not remotely the most unfinished game. Not by a longshit.

Of mainstream AAA titles?

They cut a planet. They cut several sidequests short. GOTO's plotline doesn't even resolve.

None of your crew has any sort of resolution after you leave for Malachor V in the base game.

Glitches everywhere. Atris enclave is still one of the easiest places in videogames to get bugged at.

A ton of weapon and item drops that are only obtainable by glitching your character to max level so that the loot table is updated to make it possible.

And so much cut dialogue it could pretty much make another game.

When this happened with my cat it was because it had become Diabetic. She was a heifer already when we took her in. Since diagnosis and insulin twice a day post meals, there's only been one accident, and I'm pretty sure that one was because I missed an injection(Not forgot, missed piercing under the skin. Didn't notice the insulin smell until later.)

So yeah, check for kidney issues and diabetes. It's usually an indication of urinary stress or pain.

Remake feels like about as good a game as Crisis Core was with a substantially more nonsensical story. The minigames were the best part of the game and that's sorta a weird thing for me to come to terms with.

The word is "Condemnulate", Isn't that a juxtaposition that just rolls off the tongue?

If you're actively condemning an action you're participating in, or seek to ban/hinder an activity so as to lower the barrier of entry to allow for personal participation in the thing or action being condemned.

In a sentence:

Kelly Loeffler condemnulated the actions of Dianne Feinstein regarding her relationship to the NYSE through her significant other.

or for bonus confusion

Nintendo condemnulated the use of emulators to reproduce classic games, buy Super Mario 3-D All-Stars today!

Honestly, It goes to show that if your Voice Acting/Music is good, it goes a long way in elevating the final product. Between the snacks and the Grumps, there really wasn't a single poor performance.

Progression curve was super linear, but that's good honestly.

Trip shot is sorta OP once you realize it basically "Just works" on almost everything once you get it.

It feels like the devs probably threw one more big-ass secret somewhere in the game that people haven't found yet. I sorta wanna take a picture of the Snaxsquatch in all the locations it can appear to see if anything happens as a result, but I can't find a comprehensive list of locations.

Really enjoyable game though. 8.5-9/10 for me.

I think a big part of the problem is that the bar for an FPS game has risen so much since the days of Goldeneye 007 and Perfect Dark. Those games were popular because of the diversity of their weapon sandboxes. Goldeneye had Lasers, Proxy mines, a whole slew of hand cannons and explosives, the RCP80(?) and the horrible gun that was the Klobb.

Perfect Dark one-upped it with shit like the Laptop gun, the Dragon, The Foresight, etc. Hell, Perfect Dark had gamers dropping N-bombs before they even discovered racism.(What a weird ass weapon though.)

Nowadays that's not revolutionary. FPS controls have been pretty stable since Halo. You have to do something really innovative with the pacing, like Doom(gotta go fast) AND have a pretty dope weapon sandbox to boot.

My worries is that we'll get another generic shooter because they'll choose to go all in with the story/characters....which feels sorta like a lost cause in a shooter to begin with. Or at least an incredible uphill battle.

All people really want from a new perfect dark is

-Badass Joanna
-Good Weapon Sandbox(Give us some new ideas we haven't seen a dozen times)
-Consistent performance
-Decent/good Multiplayer
-Elvis.

That's it, really. Anything else is just Bonus
