| Topic | LeBron James violated virus protocol prior to play-in game vs. Warriors |
| Kyle1022 05/22/21 3:56:23 PM #1 | https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/31487427/los-angeles-lakers-lebron-james-violated-protocol-attending-event-nba-says He attended a public promotional event and has not said publicly whether or not he has been vaccinated (though teammates have reportedly been told by him that he hasn't gotten it). I'm a LeBron fan but he deserves to be punished for this. Of course the NBA won't have the balls to suspend him for even one game of his first playoff series against the Suns, but he should be required to sit out and quarantine for 10-14 days. |
| Topic | SMT Nocturne Remastered came out and there's no topics about it |
| Kyle1022 05/22/21 1:26:58 PM #46 | Irony posted... This is a really bad take. You're comparing a superboss where the difficulty ranges from if you aren't prepared you automatically lose to if you're prepared you can only lose if you deliberately do so to a game where even prepared random battles can wipe you. Also no one lost against AoN except as a joke, it's the easiest final boss in the series.Nope, you can beat Nocturne's "secret" boss fairly easily without a guide (you'll die on the way but it happens, boohoo), can't beat P3's that way. And being prepared for P3's secret boss is no guarantee that you'll win, there is still some RNG involved like if high counter kicks in on the right turn, or if you can beat the boss within the turn limit. P3's regular final boss is not easier than P4's or P5's lol, gtfo. It's even more annoying than Nocturne's secret boss. At least Nocturne's secret boss can't charm your healer when the hour long fight is almost over. Not sure why you're talking about random battles wiping you in Nocturne either. That happens in P3 too if you get a stupid layout on a Tartarus floor. And on some bullshit bosses like the roulette one, unless you look up the way to cheese it. |

Once you know weaknesses and what to do, yeah the game is easy.During my first playthrough, I think I died more in P3 than I did in Nocturne. P3's final boss can charm your healer and the secret boss took me like a full day of fusing Personas to get one good enough to win. Whereas Nocturne's boss I beat on the first try with no preparation. And that was with using |

| Kyle1022 05/21/21 4:52:36 PM #27 | SMT snobs are funny in how they overstate the difficulty. Persona 3 is every bit as hard, if not harder, than Nocturne. In fact the "secret" boss for P3 is much harder, you literally lose right away unless you look up the pattern for the fight. No turn-based JRPG can be hard when grinding is possible. It's just people trying to feel better about themselves. Sure you'll die sometimes in Nocturne, just like you would in any pre-2004 JRPG without a guide. But it's not super challenging like everyone says it is. Awesome game though. The battle system is timeless turn-based bliss, and the atmosphere is absolutely unmatched. Really gives you that sense of dread wandering around the vortex world. Not to mention the kickass soundtrack. |

| Kyle1022 05/18/21 5:52:52 PM #3 | Have they fixed the PS5's game library issue where it shows old demos and games you played on disc on PS4, and won't let you remove them? It's stupid how it won't let me remove old games like Madden 16 that I've long since sold, or even old demos, from my game library. All the clutter is so unnecessary. Even the Switch allows you to remove old stuff ffs. I wouldn't know if it's been fixed because I haven't turned on my PS5 in months. No games :( |

| Topic | Why do people want to sabotage your weight loss so bad? *blogfaqs* |
| Kyle1022 04/14/21 4:29:03 PM #18 | Are you also the type of person to complain about GameStop pushing preorders when all you have to do is say "no"? Honestly, sounds like a very easy solution. Just crack a smile and say "no thanks, I still got more to lose!" Or literally anything else other than getting this mad about it. That's not what someone who is socially well-adjusted would do. Alternatively, just eat the thing and bake it into your diet. A cupcake won't kill you. Take it from someone who has gained and lost a bunch of weight before - if you refuse to treat yourself at all then you're still letting food control your life, which is the root of the problem. Moderation is key. |

| Topic | EA bans Japanese gamer for using Japanese word that sounds like the N word. |
| Kyle1022 04/04/21 3:35:07 PM #59 | ultimate reaver posted... remember that time people got really mad at the opening song of persona 5 because the singer has a very thick accent and they thought she was saying the r word in the middle of the song for no reasonIt wasn't "people" it was one trans Kotaku writer who is actually on the spectrum herself (this is not an insult, she actually is, so don't mod me for this). Go figure. And when even Twitter called her out on being racist for essentially making fun of the singer's Engrish, she never apologized and hid behind Jason Schreier. And it took like, weeks for them to take the scathing article down, since they wanted that ad revenue. The singer also apologized on Twitter, which she shouldn't have had to do just because some idiot jumped to a conclusion. |

| Kyle1022 04/02/21 7:56:44 PM #15 | electricbugs2 posted... The N64 has aged like strange cheese.Speak for yourself, N64 has plenty of beloved classics I think that Nintendo believes no one likes the N64 and GC because they sold pretty bad compared to the NES and SNES, and compared to their competition at the time. But the people who grew up with them are adults now who wanna relive their childhoods, and I think Nintendo is really missing out on all that potential income I mean just look at how ridiculous GameCube game prices are now. I used to collect but I said fuck it and bought a GC Loader for my GameCube. Nintendo is dumb for not wanting some of that money |

Are you really trying to argue that Valve is involved with the Chinese government on the same level that Tencent (and thus Epic) is? Because that's just being willfully ignorant. |
| Topic | Gamers: omg I HATE Epic for their anti-consumer stances. what the FUCK |
| Kyle1022 04/01/21 11:07:24 AM #18 | A LOT of corporations bend the knee for China. Even the extremely liberal NBA censored its players and coaches/employees from sticking up for Hong Kong, because they didn't want to lose that sweet Chinese money. So picking on Valve for doing it seems a bit silly. There is a clear difference between censoring some stuff so that you can release in a different region and earn some extra money (many game companies do this), and having direct ties to the Chinese government. |
| Topic | Gamers: omg I HATE Epic for their anti-consumer stances. what the FUCK |
| Kyle1022 04/01/21 10:56:38 AM #13 | Nintendo has some shitty practices but what can you do? They make some great exclusive games so if you wanna play them, you just gotta deal with it. With Epic it's easy, just buy their games on another storefront instead, or buy the console versions, or wait a year for the games they paid for to come to Steam. (Or in the case of Kingdom Hearts, they've already been cracked, so I'm sure some people would rather pirate them than support Epic) |

I've been using that for a year or so for all the Animal Crossing villagers, works great. I guess it's technically piracy but if you're pirating Amiibos/cards that you can't buy new at a retailer anymore, it doesn't really matter as far as morals go. Not like Nintendo is losing out on any potential sale. And even if they were in stock, I'm not buying any, so they're still not losing out on a sale. --- PC | Switch | Wii U | Wii | GC | N64 | SNES | NES | PS5 | PS4 Pro | PS3 | PS2 | PS1 | Xbox Series X | N3DS | DSi | GBA | GBC | Vita | PSP |
