2024.05.16 23:01 Etiekyed This app has saved me hours of time finding full length YouTube videos

Hi Tiktokhelp,
I run three accounts on Tiktok with different niches. Normally, I find the videos I'm going to do on Tiktok, but with a better edit, my own ideas, etc. But most of the time it is almost impossible to find the original, full length video - especially if it's a podcast or hour long video.
I came across this app called Invenio. It searches YouTube for the audible words, or transcript, said in the video, rather than the title or description of the video. I found that it finds 95% of the videos I am trying to find. I recommend those of create videos to check it out.

2024.05.16 22:53 Artistic_Art_Artist How would I go about making a 2D imaged a flat 3D cutout model???

I mod video games frequently, I am similar on how to import models, modify models and such for various purposes. But I am still really new to making new models form scratch. But I tried looking everywhere for several hours last night, but couldn't find anything in the end. The closest I got was a different modeling site I had to pay for (and it was rather expensive) and nothing else. ):
I am trying to take a regular 2d Image, and make it 3D. Basically just stretching it out on the side, like a cardboard cutout kinda. I managed to try and convert the image into a "Trace Image to Grease Pencil" then "Converting To" a "Bézier Curve" But this leaves it with an outline on the inside of the object. So to fix this I tried removing all detail and such inside of the image, by making the image just one plain color (like black or white) and then inverting it, so in the image all you could see was the plain outline. And THAT WORKED, YET NOW, I am dealing with just a plain simple outline of the object
What it currently looks like after my attempts at fixing my problems
What I want but in 3d
I am trying to make it look closer to a flat cutout, like a cardboard model for video games. I could manually connect each and every Vertice to make faces between them all manually. But that just takes a long time and is a LOT of work. There has to be an easier way, right?
These images were made by AI as a quick one for testing, since I didn't feel like spending 3 hours on drawing my own just to potentially get rid of it in 2 minutes if my test didn't work, or that image wasn't specifically made, etc.

2024.05.16 22:50 slmiami Ultimate Swing Golf first impressions

I really enjoyed the Clap Hanz golf games on the PSP and PS Vita handhelds many years ago. There was an addictive quality to those games that made me play them over and over again. While I am really impressed with Golf+ for some reason I have not stuck much with that game since they removed the ”Pro Putt” mode that was the game play of original version; I mostly play Walkabout Minigolf for my golf fix.
Given this, it was an easy decision to try out Ultimate Swing Golf. Happily, it very much feels like a great VR version of the handheld console classics. The physics seem fairly realistic in an arcade-like way and the graphics are lovely. All the game modes you would expect are there and seem solid. I played one online match against random players and everything worked perfectly and fluidly. You get all the slightly cartoony features you would expect; one feature I love is the reactive crowd which jump out of the way of errant shots and gleefully cheer when you raise your club. There is some customization of your avatar (an in-game one; not a Meta avatar) as well as selection of different rather chatty caddies and their outfits (fortunately my understanding is there is a switch to silence the caddies). There are even a couple of decent MR mini-games. This is really lovely for an initial version and I would certainly recommend it if you want a casual full swing golf game. If you already own Golf+, you may still enjoy adding this to your collection.
One feature I would love to see is a way to replay videos of your last shot.
PS - DM me if you are looking for a referral code.

Long read.
I was just messing around with godboosted towers. Then the so-called worst T5 in the game started to perform significantly better than I expected.
After taking it into challenge editor, it got to round 210, higher than some degree 100 paragons...
Everyone knows in 36.0, megalodon was the most broken tower to ever exist. Then 36.1 nerfed it into the ground and everyone forgot about it. However, when people tried to buff it to a usable point, top and middle path beast handlers couldn't benefit from attack speed buffs in 36.1, this feature was only added in 37.0, when most people already labeled this tower as garbage.
Interestingly enough, godboosted megalodon actually surpasses pre-bugfix megalodon.
Pre bugfix meg: 225k per bite
Godboosted post bugfix meg: 226k per bite lmao
This single target compeltely shreds BADs (round 200 was completely destroyed), but the first problem that comes to mind with megalodon freeplay is catching leaks. However, this surprisingly isn't really an issue.
Since godboosted meg has such ridiculous attack speed, combined with the AOE of the thrash, it can actually clean up DDTs and cerams while latched onto other bloons. Even if it pops the MOABs around it while thrashing, the AOE is enough to instantly destroy those as well.
Not only that, some other buffs that were completely overlooked by the majority of the playerbase actually means the megalodon has much stronger freeplay potential than originally thought.
Recently, in just 41.0, meg's instakills were reworked slightly. At launch, megalodon was completely worthless in freeplay not only because it couldn't instakill BADs past 150, but also because round 200 ZOMGs are tanky af, but not tanky enough to past the RBE threshold for instakilling. This meant that meg targeting a ZOMG completely wasted the damage, since it took forever to actually instakill the ZOMG due to its health. In 41.0, Non-BADs have a max drag time of 6s. Any ZOMG will take at max 6s to instakill, even at round 1000.
In this same update, meg was given more powerful moab knockback. This was completely irrelevant with a vanilla megalodon, but again, the hypersonic attack speed means that megalodon can actually crowd control DDTs even in late freeplay. I found that having the meg target a BAD, then have all the DDTs run into it while the BAD is being thrashed is often better than having the meg chase after the supersonic round 200 DDTs.
In summary, with enough buffs and support, the meg is actually an extremely solid freeplay option that nobody ever expected. After rewatching some old godboosted videos, this is in the range of godboosted super mines, AoW and even nearing LoTN.
I will say that I don't have access to golden village mod, but I doubt the 17 million extra damage from TSG and energizer actually matter (see screenshots).
This was also with minimal micro, didn't have to reposition the shark, just a little bit of "first/strong" targeting to catch leaks.
Maybe I got lucky with 200+ freeplay RNG (not as many post 200 FBADs as I expected, but still, lmk ur thoughts.
I still have to agree that vanilla, nonbuffed megalodon is complete and utter garbage. Honestly kinda reminds me of tack zone, a tower that simply needs buffs to be worthwhile.
TLDR: Godboosted megalodon OP.

2024.05.16 22:46 CrushingPhotography What Cameras and Lenses Do Sports Photographers Use? (Across Various Price Points)

You may wonder:
And that’s exactly what I’m here to help you with today.
Here are the top 5 best cameras for sports photography (beginner and advanced folks) across various price points.
I'll also include the recommended lenses for sports for each of the camera body mentioned.
These options work for a variety of events/team sports:
Whatever camera you decide to choose, remember, for this photography genre, fast focusing and high frame rate is what you need to look for.
Alright, here's the roundup of the best cameras for sports photography.

1. Canon Rebel T6i

Type: Compact SLR Weight: 555 g Resolution: 24MP LCD: Fully articulated Touchscreen: Yes Weather-sealed: No ISO: Auto, 100-12800 (expandable to 25600)
While the Canon Rebel T6i (or 750D outside the US) is not ‘the latest and greatest’, it’s still a sweet choice in many ways.
Here are my 3 reasons why you should consider it:
The kit lens isn’t good for this genre though!
(The T7i is the newer model but it’s also a bit more expensive.)
Reasons to buy:
Reasons to avoid:
Best lens for action shots:
Most of the kits come with the 18-35 lenses but those are not long enough, so that’s why you should get 18-135mm lens for sports photography.
Moving on to the next camera.

2. Canon 7D II

Type: Mid-size SLR Weight: 910 g Resolution: 20MP LCD: Not articulated Touchscreen: None Weather-sealed: Yes ISO: Auto, ISO 100-16000
Canon EOS 7D Mark II is one of the most advanced APS-C sensor DSLRs at the moment.
In fact, it is one of the best affordable Canon cameras for sports on the market today.
It’s also one of the best DSLR cameras under $2000 budget (with the kit lens that you can use for this type of photography).
There is no abundance of secondary functions in it common for newer models, but everything a professional photographer or a videographer needs is always at hand.
This is a real workhorse with lots of capabilities.
It has excellent autofocus, both when viewed through the viewfinder, and when using the display. It also has the highest speed of continuous shooting and a large buffer.

Reasons to buy:

Reasons to avoid:

Best lens for action shots:
As I mentioned earlier this glass is a good one to get because it’s long enough for moving objects. If you’re on a budget, it’s always better getting a used 7D II body but absolutely do get that 18-135mm.

3. Nikon D500

Type: Mid-size SLR Weight: 860 g Resolution: 21 MP LCD: Tilting Touchscreen: Yes Weather-sealed: Yes ISO: ISO 100 – 51200 (expandable to 50 – 1640000)
The truth is...
Nikon D500 is one of the most amazing digital cameras ever produced by Nikon, equipped with a DX format sensor.
The Nikon D500 uses a new 20.9-megapixel CMOS sensor and a new Expeed 5 image processor. High burst rate (10 frames per second) and 153 points of autofocus, located throughout the frame area are an excellent offer for that kind of money!
It is complemented by an inclined touch screen, which makes it even more convenient. The D500 also has excellent video capabilities and allows you to shoot in 4K.
Keep in mind, this Nikon body is not for those who are looking to buy their very first DSLR.
All the charms of this camera will be appreciated only by an experienced photographer, meanwhile it will be difficult/frustrating to master for a beginner.

Reasons to buy:

Reasons to avoid:

Best lens for action shots:
If you use D500 with the Tamron 70-200mm f/2.8 telephoto zoom, then you have an amazing combo to crush it in sports photography. This glass is at a relatively lower price-point.
The new ones are a bit better but the older one will be just a bit cheaper if you are on a lower budget. (Don’t worry you won’t see that much of a difference in the lenses overall).

4. Sony a9

Type: SLR-style mirrorless Weight: 673 g Resolution: 24 MP LCD: Tilting Touchscreen: Yes Weather-sealed: Yes ISO: Auto, 100-51200 (50-204800)
This one is one of the best mirrorless cameras for sports photography (and an official EISA Award winner).
Sony a9 is a high-speed full-frame mirrorless that’s designed to go head to head with Canon and Nikon’s flagship professional DSLRs.
The a9 presents a high rate of burst of up to 20 frames/s, and a large buffer of up to 200 RAW frames, as well as an impressive ISO performance.
Even though smart modes of autofocus (such as focusing on the eyes, Lock-on AF and priority in the recognition of faces) require some time getting used to, they can significantly facilitate your work.
The 5-axis stabilization in this hybrid camera works well (both for photos and videos).
I must say that it’s also great for video shooting:
There is 4K and slow-motion shooting of 100/120 frames/s in Full HD. There is only no support for S-Log profiles, however the rest of the traditionally wide range of features is preserved.

Reasons to buy:

Reasons to avoid:

Best lens for action shots:
Given that we are talking about sports, the best lens that’s recommended to buy along Sony a9 is Sony 70-200 GM fixed zoom lens.

5. Nikon D5

Type: Large SLR Weight: 1415 g Resolution: 21 MP LCD: Fixed Touchscreen: Yes Weather- sealed: Yes ISO: Auto, 100-102400 (expandable to 50-3280000)
Without a doubt...
Nikon D5 is one of the best DSLR cameras for any pro level photography, including sports.
Everything in this product, every little thing is set up to ensure a simple and guaranteed result when shooting in any conditions.
1) It’s not afraid of dust and moisture.
2) It easily, if not the best out of all cameras, deals well with the lack of light.
3) D5’s autofocus works so stably and quickly that you simply forget about it.
4) The speed of the continuous shooting and the large volume of the frames in RAW can guarantee you catching the right moment in any photo-shooting scene.
5) The resource of the battery makes it possible to shoot for a day without stopping or limiting yourself with the number of frames.
Nikon D5 is one of the best DSLRs for sports photography today.
It is an excellent choice for those photographers who really do shoot in difficult conditions and are required to guarantee the result

Reasons to buy:

Reasons to avoid:

.Best lens for action shots:
We now established what is the best DSLR if you are into sports.
If you decide to go with Nikon D5 instead of Sony a9 mirrorless, then go with the Sigma 120-300mm F2.8 Sports DG Lens. You'll be blown away.

Best Cameras for Sports Photography: Final Thoughts

Look...
All of the aforementioned products are absolutely great. Some of them are full frame sensor, a couple of them are APS-C sensor (so keep the crop factor in mind).
They are not all expensive cameras. You can find across various price points, whether you are looking for digital cameras for beginners under $1000 or under the $5000 price tag, or more advanced gear for professional sports photographers.
In fact, all of the products mentioned are used by the pros and it shows that the quality really is top-notch (especially Sony a9, Nikon D5, and Canon EOS R with advanced autofocus systems).
Let's have a discussion in the comments.

2024.05.16 22:46 DrAwesomeX MultiVersus leaks Banana Guard (Adventure Time) as new character, also teases another character via the new Character Select Screen

https://x.com/ausilmv/status/1791197587909095614?s=46
Sorry for the confusing title, but fans noticed the new Character Select Scream is arranged alphabetically. The two slots that are hidden, by proxy, must also fit alphabetically, which narrows down who these characters could be by a lot.
In MultiVersus’ newest video, Official PvE Rifts Mode, if you slow down the video to 0.25 speed and stop at around 0:11, you can briefly see Banana Guard in the Character Select Screen. This also tracks with all the Banana related hints they’ve been teasing
https://youtu.be/3h4Zex58TLo?si=B-YFwFk3qME2qlEi
The second is between Jake and Joker. The only guess a lot of people have suggested would be Johnny Bravo, as he was both supposedly in the original pitch for MultiVersus, and he’d fit before Joker, as H comes before K in the alphabet. This would also line up with a lot of the Banana-related teases they’ve been doing, as Johnny is infamous for his dance move, The Monkey
https://x.com/ausilmv/status/1791200261253607588?s=46
This is also noteworthy as despite Powerpuff Girls being leaked already, they have no place on this Character UI screen. They would’ve been between Morty and Reindog. On that same note, Dexter wouldn’t fit here, as he’d be between Bugs & Finn. So that means we’re looking at potentially at least 5 new characters for launch

2024.05.16 22:40 Soft-Independence936 Can video games help with mental health?

I (M22) know that this whole community was originally centered around gaming, but I'm not a gamer myself at the moment. Recently tho, I feel I've been overworking myself with school, work, and extracurriculars, among other things. I'm in therapy and I'm seeing a psychiatrist next week. I've been dealing with chronic stress, depression and anxiety for months now and I'm now feeling symptoms of depersonalization-derealization disorder because of it.
I've been trying to take some off days, being in bed all day and trying not to feel ashamed of myself for taking a break. I know it sounds bad, but a few days of being a slob without judgment feels good to me, I'll get back on my feet when I'm ready. I used to play video games in high school, and I feel like it might give me a sense of disconnecting from the world in a healthy way if used properly, but I'm not sure if it's recommended. But it's super fun lol.

2024.05.16 22:39 Mchl496 Why doubting Game Pass is a mistake

So it's popular to doubt Game Pass due to a lack of understanding of the model. Xbox/Microsoft wants Game Pass to be the Netflix of gaming. We know that, but no one questions Netflix. Netflix initially had old movies and TV shows on DVD. So let's talk Netflix and their competitors.
They later did streaming. What was happening around then? Streaming wars were incomming due to Netflix becoming popular. Studios wanted more money and then thought, wait why don't we do our own at some point. Netflix started spinning up their own content in landmark deals, House of Cards whole first season was green lit. Netflix began blowing money to draw eyesballs at this point. They needed continued subscriptions growth to help mitigate the blowing of cash but they new they would only survive with engaging new titles since they were losing the back catalog that most people were watching. Yes, Bright got headlines, but losing Friends and the Office hurt Netflix.
Netflix doesn't get the ability to make a big theatrical run pop that makes 500million dollars and then the 2nd run with it being on TV. So what do they do? They end series after a couple seasons. They do things to gain acclaim or get everyone talking. 2020 came along and what were we talking about in March/April? Tiger King. It's a far cry from Bright but it took over the globe.
What did Netflix's competitors do? They launched services and made original content. A lot are flopping. I won't mention Quibbi, Vudu, Crackle or all the other low tier streaming services. HBOMax was in it's best in 2020. They got my money. They about faced on that their features releasing day and date, started cancelling shows, merged and changed their name and cancelled/scrapped completed projects. I cancelled my service and only came back when they offered it for 99¢ a month for the ad version for a year. Guess what, I'll be cancelling it when the price changes.
Disney locked in a lot of subscribers for 2-5 years pre-launch. They released a lot of new content to mixed to meh results. They made a Willion series and cancelled it after season 1. X-Men 97 got me to log into a family account to watch it starting 3 weeks ago.
CBS All Access became Paramount Plus. They went in on Star Trek and now Paramount is looking to get sold in a weird way where the IP would stay with Sony but paramount plus would get sold off?
Peacock made headlines for their Bel Air series but I've heard more people talk positive about Crackle than ever mention Peacock.
**** Back to Game Pass****
If Microsoft stick's to their plan, they will be Netflix. They need to work on getting subscriptions. I'm sure a lower tier Game Pass, that's just their phone games will get a lot of new subscribers. They won't take as many big swings like Netflix did for Bright. They will take moderate swings like Netflix did for Adam Sandler movies and stand up. They will hopefully work with TV partners to make sure new TVs can play Game Pass. They don't need a handheld if all the new Samsungs and LG TVs have a built in 100 dollar piece of equipment. They will make more TV shows and movies. They might not of made a new Fallout game, but the series made the old games spike in sales and plays.
Microsoft made a service that influenced a service that made PlayStation and Nintendo copy parts of it. Some of the same Games Journos who bemoan Game Pass as unsustainable also really want Nintendo to copy them more, usually justifying emulation/piracy.
You won't like what Xbox/Microsoft does all the time. If we lose Phil Spencer, you'll get someone way more keen to be a Bobby Kotick and keep his job then someone who loves videos as a medium. You don't have to agree or support them. Vote with your wallets. I'm just a Nintendo Day 1 fan, who owns all the systems and likes what Microsoft is building to.
P.S. a cancelled TV series doesn't get the same press as a closed game studio but the loss of jobs and impact is the same. You look at all the crew and then people hired to do related jobs... Like the craft services, security and post production services. It hurts.

2024.05.16 22:38 Dry_Cucumber_2788 TikTok 0 Views

Hey everyone, I have a somewhat confusing issue with multiple 0 view videos on a new-ish account.
Basically, I have a business account and wanted to use the 'Jessie' voice over which is only available on personal accounts. I didn't want to swtich between business and personal all the time so I made a new account with the plan of making the video on my personal, drafting it, then sending it to my business account and posting it there. I'm new to tiktok however so I didn't realize it was going to show the watermark and the video immediately went under review for unoriginal content.
After that, I decided screw using the jessie voice, deleted the old video and since then have made 3 original videos purely on the business account. All 3 of those videos have gotten 0 views. The videos have been posted for 12 hours as of now and the account is more than 24 hrs old. Did I flag my account immediately with the first video and that's why everything else is broken?
I'm not sure what to do, any ideas would be life saving thanks!!

2024.05.16 22:32 Overall_Trouble_3042 Whats next after Sanderson

I am relatively new to fantasy reading. Watching Game of Thrones turned into reading ASOIAF turned into finding Brandon Sanderson. I am through Mistborn (original trilogy) and have read TWoK, WoR, and Dawnshard. Halfway through Oathbringer, I already am wondering what to read next.
I will say that, while I think the Stormlight Archives are becoming my favorite series of all time, I still adore the depths of lore we get in Game of Thrones.
Now, I will say that I fear spoilers and refuse to search any questions or watch any youtube videos on the Cosmere due to this, but I am wondering if there are any similar readers who have recommendations. I found Sanderson on a ASOIAF reddit and was hoping to find my next favorite author here.
I will say that i disagree with almost every criticism I have seen of Martin and Sanderson. I adore the brutality and lore of ASOIAF, and I cannot stop reading Sanderson and continue to be impressed by the amount of storylines and characters he ropes me into.
So, are there any recommendations that are NOT the rest of the Stormlight Archives, any of the secret projects, or Fire and Blood?

2024.05.16 22:29 OldiesStan Passed Step 1 on My 1st Attempt After Repeating My First Year of Medical School!!!

I am a third-year USMD who took Step 1 on 4/19 after a 5-week dedicated period. Technically, I studied for 7 weeks since I started watching Sketchy Micro and Pathoma during the last two weeks of preclinicals when we were in our last and easiest block.
Per my title, I repeated my first year of medical school after experiencing academic and personal challenges. I was originally part of the class of 2025 but transitioned to the class of 2026 after a few course and remediation exam failures. Honestly, before I joined my current cohort, I was a horrible student with a very poor and fixed mindset - most of my grades were borderline passing, I had pretty much given up, and I was convinced that I was only capable of doing the absolute bare minimum in medical school. When my school told me I had to repeat, I was terrified and unsure if I would even make it out of MS1 the second time around, but was also determined to make the most out of this fresh start and build a strong content foundation which I had failed to do the first time. Over the next two years, I used a consistent study plan for all of my blocks which I not only passed, but excelled in including the ones I had failed previously. I also adopted a growth mindset and healthy coping mechanisms for stress and anxiety, and had a strong support system consisting of family, friends, upperclassmen who also repeated or had their own academic struggles, faculty, classmates, and a free therapist from my school.
Today, two years after I received the devastating news that I would have to start medical school over from the very beginning, my hard work finally paid off when I got the long-coveted P yesterday. Dedicated was not easy - there were several times when I felt hopeless and like I would fail especially given my previous academic history. Additionally, even though my academic performance improved significantly with me getting only 80s and 90s after I repeated, my classmates were so smart that rankings-wise, I was still a pretty average student with my grades usually around the class average - sometimes a little more, sometimes a little less. Ultimately, a consistent study plan tailored to my strengths and what worked for me during preclinicals helped me overcome my worries and conquer this beast of an exam.
I realize that this post is getting pretty long now, so below I will quickly outline my resources, scores, and timeline:
UWorld: 24% complete with 60% average - this was after I reset UWorld which I had used in preclinicals. I also only did 1 block of 40 questions a day except on days when I took NBMEs because I took a long time to thoroughly review my blocks. I tried to do 2 blocks once and was completely burnt out afterwards so I stuck to only 1 block per day moving forward. All of my blocks were timed and random which I feel exposed me to many high-yield concepts and helped me with pacing.
Anki: I did the Pepper Sketchy Micro and Pharm decks during the first 3ish weeks of dedicated but eventually stopped. I also made my own Anki cards from my UWorld incorrect and "unsures" (questions I had answered correctly but didn't know why or completely understand) and did these cards every day until my exam.
Resources: First Aid - Read all sections concurrently with UWorld and Anki.
Boards and Beyond - Watched videos on weaknesses that I identified from UWorld.
Sketchy Micro and Pharm - Watched all videos. Micro is definitely essential as it helped me answer lots of microbio questions correctly.
Pixorize - Watched LSD/GSD and vitamin videos.
Pathoma - Watched and reread chapters 1-3. Lots of extremely high-yield information especially in general path, cell and molecular bio, and immuno.
Mehlman arrows and risk factor PDF documents - Only used these toward the end of dedicated once I had completed content review to further reinforce concepts.
NBME high-yield images - Only looked at these the day before my exam.
Having a good foundation from preclinicals after I repeated also really helped make dedicated more doable.
Scores: School-sponsored diagnostic CBSE (early March 2024) = 58
NBME 26 (3/23) = 61
NBME 28 (3/30) = 61 - This freaked me out so I started revisiting concepts I had already reviewed, but not completely mastered, alongside new content review.
NBME 29 (4/6) = 70 - I attribute this big score jump to the above strategy. I used FA, B&B, and Pathoma for this.
NBME 31 (4/13) = 73
NBME 30 (4/16) = 76
New Free 120 (4/17) = 77% correct
Real deal (4/19) = PASS!!! I felt confident and ready to take the exam after seeing an upward trend in my NBME scores and consistently getting scores within passing range. The exam itself was similar to NBMEs and free 120 and I was able to finish all my blocks with about 10 min left which I used to review my answers. Trust your NBMEs and don't worry too much about your UWorld %!!!
I'm sorry that this post is so long, but I wanted to share my experience with Step 1 and what helped me get the P especially since this subreddit was a huge help for me during dedicated. I also hope that my story serves as encouragement for other students who have either repeated a year or experienced any kind of academic difficulty. Please don't give up - you are not alone and do have what it takes to pass Step 1!!! ♥️
Congrats to everyone who also passed, and for those who didn't, you are still amazing and deserve to be here, and your time will come.

2024.05.16 22:29 Gloomy_Ring_3095 Things I wished the game did

After spending hundreds of hours in the game I think I can confidently say I know what I wished the game did more of or better. Don't get me wrong, I love this game and I played it for so long but the more I just feel like there's more that could've been done. Dragon's dogma is the only game of it's like. Sure you can say it's similar to this and this but nothing really scratches that itch that dragons dogma does. I love a lot of the decisions they made with the game and the world but I'm not blind to it's flaws either. Most of the things I'll talk about has been said a million times but it really can't be understated how much more they could've done.
Gameplay
Like I said up in that paragraph no other game really scratches the itch that dragon's dogma does. Combat alone was a big selling point for me because where else will you get an ARPG where the combat feels nice and weighty without it being clunky and or it being too light and feeling more like a hack and slash combo game. It too me hits that perfect itch of being realistic but also fantasy. My only gripe with it is that it feels like a high fantasy game trying to be a dark fantasy game. It's more of a tone thing but in a world where people are able to cast meteors and tornados and jump 10 meters into the air and become a spinning ball of death the enemies you face are just grounded goblins and monsters. I feel like it's trying to be two things at once leading too the classes feeling just kind of mismatched. compare the gameplay of fighter to thief. Two close quarters classes and starting out they feel like they're on the same level somewhat but as you progress fighter just kind of remains the same while thief is over here causing explosions and flying around everywhere despite them starting on equal grounds. A more jarring example is mystic spearhand the "anime vocation" you can teleport around send out magic waves and stun enemies with a magic chargeable bolt. I have no problems with spear hand but to go from fighter a pretty grounded gameplay style to mystic spearhand where I feel like I'm playing DMC it's just kinda jarring. I like that the vocations feel unique don't get me wrong but it really just does feel weird to be a really normal guy swinging a sword around to teleporting everywhere and becoming invincible exploding man. Other than that I don't really have much else to say about the combat besides game difficulty really does affect combat a lot. As much as I like the combat even I can agree that it gets stale killing everything in 2-3 hits with no real danger. I still remember my first ogre fight since it was the first and only tough battle I had after that the game was a cake walk and I quickly shut my brain off for the majority of it.
Exploration
the world of dragons dogma is fucking beautiful. Sometimes I just walk around admiring the world they made, seeing the trees and grass sway with the wind as oxcarts and patrolling knights walk past. The only thing that can ruin it is oh right an enemy encounter every 3 mins. I Love the combat but fuck, combat every 3 mins when I just want to explore and see the world can get tiresome and just lessens the encounters to be mind numbing button mashing. not only does it lessen the combat system by just giving you too much of it but it ruins exploration by making the world feels smaller. The world is so fucking beautiful but if the only thing you really see or interact with is combat after combat you stop focusing on the world and you just look at the same goblins and lizards. One video I've been watching a lot is a dragons dogma 2 relaxing ambient music where they have scenes of the world just existing. You forget how beautiful the world that capcom created actually is because every 3 mins you just fight goblins. Just that open field of wheat outside of vernworth can give you like 50 beautiful screenshots of the world. I really wish there was a mod that would either lower enemy population count or get rid of half the enemy placements in the world because I really do just want to explore and take in the world. Another problem that DD2 has with exploration is that all the armors and weapons are in the shops. After realizing this halfway through the game I just lost like 50% of my desire to fully explore the game. If all the cool armor and weapons can just be bought what's the reason to explore caves and dungeons and complete quests? I get why they did this because if you're a thief and a quest reward or a random dungeon chest is a warrior armor then you pretty much just wasted time to get loot that doesn't match your vocation but having it all in the shop just ruins so much of the game's exploration and quests. Also if you want to start a new game I recommend you download a mod called "wild loot" on nexus. It takes all the items in the shops and just does what it says, places it into the wild. Whenever I found a cool new armor or weapon I'm always interested to see how big a difference it made rather than just buying the best set in the store.
World
I just wish there was more world building and lore to the world to explain stuff for those that truly want to know about the world. Like why don't we have the misty marshes be explained as "A long time ago a litch showed up and that's why theres so many undead and an uneazy fog around it" and if you keep exploring you can find out that oooooo the old villagers executed a wizard or priest for some reason and they placed a curse on the local area to be an undead area. I wish there were more biomes too, like wide open plains or snowy mountains. Imagine climbing a snowy mountain at night being lost in the snow storm only to see a bright yellow light off in the distant and seeing a tiny little cozy mountain village. seeing different architecture and culture from the giant stone fortress that is vernworth. Some kind of nordic (cheesy I know) wooden mead hall and all with people wearing heavy layering of furs of the loacal animals. Magic also just feels kinda out of place too. Maybe these ideas are cheesy but you're telling me that magic where you can summon litteral meteors wouldn't affect the world even a little bit? There wouldn't be some kind of magic school that teaches young mages to control such volatile and destructive magic? This brings me back to the whole "Low fantasy" trying to be "High fantasy" The world just needs more to feel alive. Like what if the elven village was more than just three circles connected to each other and instead you're able to walk up through mountain edges and actually see the elven houses up on the cliffs that you couldn't reach. There's dwarves in the game but they have no impact to the world at all. They don't even have their own place or history. You won't go down a cave and find yourself in a abandoned dwarven mine like moria and find a dragon hoarding a secret vault of treasures like a cool magical armor or weapon. It lack world building to add context to why the world is the way that it is. Things just are in this world. The original DD wasn't perfect but it tries to add context to the world, It really just needs to bake the world more.
Story
I'll keep this short we all know the story sucks, only thing I can say is, make the story about you and the pawn. We like our pawns more anyways. Make it about exploring what free will is and if pawns are even alive or something, just make us connect with our pawn. Add more scenes and flesh out the characters more. Just do better that's it. Also add more RPG mechanics. Honestly, just mix Bethesda rpg and dragons dogma and it's a perfect game for me.
Pawns
I love the pawn systems. I have my gripes with it but the main thing I want is for more pawn interaction. The only meaningful interaction is them showing you the way, the dap, and dual casting. Like why don't we have team attacks in in ff15? they tried to do it a bit with the ability to launch pawns but its lack luster and barely works. Imagine how cool it would be if you could coordinate with your archer pawn to launch them over the enemy and do a flip while raining arrows down on the enemy. Or if you're a sorcerer and have a warrior pawn that gives you a cool fist bump before taking a giant swing at a charging minotaur causing it to fall down while you have charge up a quick magic spell for a quick follow up attack. Just more interactions would've been so cool especially in combat.
Overall I loved dragons dogma. I wished it did more but it's one of my favorite games. Wish there were more games like this.

2024.05.16 22:27 271828183 List of Persistent Bugs in Monarch Money - Anyone Else Experiencing These?

I have been using Monarch Money for a few months, and overall, I think it is pretty good. Below is a list of bugs that I have found so far. Some of them have been previously mentioned here, while others I couldn't find any reference to.
  1. Keyboard Propagation: When using the keyboard to navigate within a transaction edit screen, pressing up or down moves you within the current selection, but it also changes the transaction simultaneously, making it likely that you modify something unintentionally. To replicate: Go to the transactions screen and click the small right arrow to open the edit modal. In that modal, select the category to change it, and then select the category again. Once you are selecting a new category, use the up/down arrows to move between categories. This will also change your transaction. The fix here is to stop the propagation at the modal dialogue.
  2. Net Worth Graph Sign: When net worth is down on a given date, it displays both a "+" and "-" before the cash amount.
  3. Pending/Posted Transactions: Under certain situations (Amex only, as far as I can tell), a transaction would happen on a certain day in the past, but when it clears, Monarch Money would update the transaction date to the new date, even though Amex still shows the transaction date as the original one.
  4. Recurring Transactions: There is a disconnect between recurring transactions that have posted on a given date and the upcoming transactions, which still show those transactions. You can see the transaction as posted in the calendar view; however, the "upcoming transactions" both in the dashboard and the recurring transactions screen would still have it.
  5. Security Price: When buying back a short security (option), the transaction cost displayed is the original purchase price rather than the executed price.
  6. Inverted Transaction: This is a well-known issue in the community; however, it is very frustrating, so it's worth mentioning again.
I have submitted all of these issues directly to Monarch Money customer service, but they have been less than helpful. I have included videos and screenshots of each individual issue, and they have yet to acknowledge any of them in a meaningful way.
In hope of improving the product further, what other bugs, not including connection issues, have you found so far?

Greetings Adventurers!

Along with our updated Rules and Guidelines, we wanted to take a moment to explain our Post Flairs.

Discussion

This can be any discussion about the game, mechanics, features, and so on. This is the broadest flair for a reason, use it as needed as a catch-all.

Question

Literally any question post you have about the game, whether that's in-game or on a larger scale. Please keep in mind that account-specific questions will be removed as per Rule 6, and belong in our weekly Questions/Advice Megathread.

Resolved

A new feature to our Subreddit as of this post, if you make a Question post with the Question flair, you can type "!solved" or "!Solved" in the comments once you've received an answer to your question that you are satisfied with, and the Post Flair will automatically update to "Resolved" instead of "Question"

Meme

Memes are memes, straightforward enough!

Art

The "Art" flair should be reserved for fanart of the game, it's characters, or otherwise. Posts are subject to removal if they do not credit the original artist as per Rule 9.

Test Server

Info

This flair should be reserved for posts that provide new or not commonly known information, or research/studies pertaining to the game in some way. This does not include asking for information, which should be under the Question flair.
We have removed the "PSA" flair due to it being too similar to Info, and confusing players on what the difference is. Posts that could previously fall under PSA, such as reminders of long-term events ending or Redemption Codes can be posted under the Info flair going forward.

Guide

If you've made a guide, text-based, video-based, or visual, use this flair. If you're sharing a guide that isn't yours, be sure to credit the creator as per Rule 9. Again, this does not include asking for a guide - use the Search bar or Question flair for this purpose.

The Showcase flair can be used to show off your account when reaching notable milestones (x amount of time played, x chapter beat, etc), maxing specific heroes, or any other in-game achievement.
This does not permit the showcasing of RNG/Pulls, which should be posted in our monthly RNG/Pulls Megathread as per Rule 6.

Replay

Replays are screen recordings of in-game content, whether that's a normal battle or other game modes.

Bug

AFK Arena Staff actively monitors this flair - do not abuse it.
This is specifically for showing in-game bugs, whether it's a visual bug, potential gameplay bug, typos or mistranslations, or otherwise.

Dev Feedback/Suggestion

AFK Arena Staff actively monitors this flair - do not abuse it.
If you have suggestions or feedback for the Developers to see, please share it here. We cannot promise implementation in the near or distant future, but we guarantee that the devs will see whatever is posted in this flair.

AFK Journey

This flair is exclusively for posts primarily relating to our sister game, AFK Journey, within the context of and still relating to AFK Arena in any way. For example, "This hero from AFK Journey is really cool, I want them added to AFK Arena!"
This Subreddit and flair is not for posts entirely about AFK Journey with no relation to AFK Arena - please see our sister Subreddit AFKJourney for such posts.

Conclusion

Thank you for taking the time to familiarize yourself with our post flairs!
If you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free to voice your thoughts in the comments below.
As always, have a great day, and be good people!

2024.05.16 22:22 lost_library_book Sister-in-law told me my wife cheated while on vacation [You found *what* on the walls, now?]

Original post - October 7th, 2023
Update 1 - March 17th, 2024
Update 2 - May 15th, 2024
Sister-in-law told me my wife cheated while on vacation
The players in this drama. My wife who for the purpose of this post shall be called Anne (female 47). My sister-in-law (female 40) who we shall call Shannon. SIL's cheating partner (male mid 40s) known hereafter as Tony. And myself (male, so close to 50 that I can reach out and slap it). We shall refer to me as "me". Usual disclaimers of cell phone and English is my first language, I just suck at it. So my wife had to travel to her step father's house. He is in very poor health, and she went there to help set up home heath. She was there for a week, and we were in constant contact. Her sister is a drunk and a drug addict. At several points during the visit, we were on video chat when "Shannon" came into the room where my wife and her father were. She was buck ass naked, raging drunk. In front of her father. I was mortified, and I'm sure he was too. Now "Shannon" is married, but separated. She has a live in boyfriend. "Tony" is my father-in-law's primary care giver. For the flight home, "Anne" missed her flight. "Tony" was driving her to the airport. There was an unusual amount of road construction, and they arrived late. She had to take a different flight. Not a big deal. After she was home for a few days, the following text exchange happened between me and Shannon. Shannon: they fucked. Me: who, and did you film it? We could make a fortune on pornhub! Shannon: I saw him leaving her room and smiling. You know she didn't miss her flight! He ain't denying it. Me: well, if they did, he's the luckiest man alive.
Now guys, I know that I have a better chance of creating a fart powered personal jet than this story has of being true. It's just not in her nature. That said, damn that woman to the depths of Detroit's South side for putting the idea in my head.
So, the question: how do I deal with a crazy drunk 80lb woman from 1000 miles away. I can't block her, because the rest of her family has. If something happens to the father-in-law while Tony is at work, I'm the only one she can contact.
Tldr: drunk SIL claims wife cheated. She didn't. I have to decide how to deal with her.
Comments
Indianblanket
Tell Tony you are blocking Shannon and to please contact you directly with any updates he receives from Shannon while he's at work.
Block Shannon.
Call Dad daily.
EdgeCityRed
Yeah, I had a former friend like Shannon: a heavy drinker, mental issues (no offense intended to people dealing with mental issues, but this was the main factor in that case), major liar who'd fixate on specific things to lie about.
I did block this person in every conceivable way but I can't think of anything else to do in your situation but ignore the behavior since you have to be in contact. OR, you and your wife could just talk to Tony about the father-in-law with the understanding that if Tony quits being the caregiver or breaks up with Shannon, he passes your contact info to the next caregiver. If something happens when Tony is at work, he'd still probably know before you.
Anyway, you have nothing to worry about with the wife anyway; you're too funny to dump.
\too funny to dump. I have a host of exes that would strongly disagree. Unless you meant funny looking. Then, they would come down solidly on your side*
Update 1
Several months ago my drunk of a SIL (f-40) told me (m-50) that my wife of 12 years (f-47) cheated on me while setting her her step dad's home health in Detroit. I, of course, didn't believe her. A lot has happened since then. First, we all went up for Christmas. While we were there, SIL (I called her Shannon in the original post) stormed in and claimed that my wife was having sex with her boyfriend "Tony" on the front porch. Two problems with that. 1) It's Detroit in December so it's cold as a well digger's ass outside. 2) my wife is in the chair next to mine. SIL ended up assaulting Tony right after I returned home. She ended up in jail where she was placed on a 3 day psych hold. Apparently being a drunken meth addict makes you crazy. Who knew? Mid January, my father-in-law passed away. This sent SIL into a spiral. Especially when she found out that she couldn't stay in the family home anymore as it had to be sold. She was given $35,000 from her father's retirement to get a new place and hold her over until the sale of the house. My wife and I drove up to prepare the house to go on the market. Y'all, I've been in nasty houses before, but not like this. My father-in-law kept this place immaculate. Now, in just 2 months, it qualifies for an episode of Hoarders. There is dog crap halfway up the walls in the den. I didn't even know dogs could poop that high! There were several empty bottles of $350 tequila in the living room. We figure that she will have drank her entire inheritance in six months. We had to rent a dumpster for me to shovel all of her garbage in to. Obviously, I changed the locks and garage door codes. Im a career garage door installer, so that part was easily done. Even more obviously, all those people who responded to the original post that my wife cheated were VERY wrong. Edit: the dog is a chihuahua. We assume that it did it's doggie business off the back of the couch, since we had to move the couch to find what was causing the smell. We can't take the dog because SIL refuses to see us. TLDR, Wife, who I knew didn't cheat even though her sister claimed she did, was exonerated because her sister is batshit crazy from meth and alcohol.
Comments
Scarletnightingale
Sir, given that she is an alcoholic with a meth addiction, I would assume that that was not dog poop on the walls. Alcoholics tend to have issues with their digestive system and meth and alcohol mess with judgement and a person caring of they pooped on the wall.
Good luck with the house, and I'm sorry that your SIL is making things so much more difficult for you during the loss of your wife's father.
Elfich47 If she making meth in the house, you may need a decon team to clean the site up.
She doesn't make it, just uses. We know this by the amount of dealers that FIL had to chase off
Update 2
I mentioned in my last post that my Father-in-law passed away. From insurance and his retirement both of his daughters received $104k before taxes. We paid our taxes up front leaving us just over $80k. We really don't have much debt, so we put it all on our house. My SIL however chose to accept a lump sum. In the update, when she had gotten the first installment of $35k, I said she would have drank it all in 6 months. Apparently I am a very optimistic man. She has drank,shot up, and snorted the entire $104k in less than 3 months. Through most of the high times, she sent my wife incredibly awful texts claiming that her dad never loved her. Technically it was my wife's step-dad. One of the claims made was that if he loved her he would have adopted her. SIL was too young to remember, but he did try. Her birth father wouldn't sign off on it. Anyway, she is out of money. My wife is getting around a dozen slurred phone calls a day begging her to let SIL sleep on our couch. That is a giant HELL NO from us. We expect to hear any day that she has been found dead.
TLDR: SIL blew her entire inheritance on drugs and alcohol. Now after insulting my wife for months, wants to live with us.
Comments
crom_77
Sounds like you have a head on your shoulders. SIL sounds like a nightmare. Money can wreck a family if it's not handled carefully, I've seen it happen several times. People live like there's going to be a big payout at the end, or like they deserve something.
HuntEnvironmental863
Do you think in 3 months OP will be back on here cause Anne took the 80k and ran off with Tony?
80k is gone. It went on our mortgage. As for Tony, he disappeared when the SIL ran out of money.
Marked as concluded per OOP.
No brigading, no harassment.
