That's why I don't trip if my electronics are handled a lil bit rough in transit. I rather they break in shipping so I can return them and steer clear of that company than later because they're flimsy shitty products. That said, I understand some electronics need to be handled with care.
Damn that's unfortunate. I had my 2023 Honda for over a year and a bit over 20k miles. Been lucky so far that everything works fine, I've driven it up a mountain a couple times when I've gone camping too.
They'll literally never lower prices. Look at what prices for everything are right now. Their excuse was that covid was driving up prices, now that covid is over they realized they could charge more so here we are.
The only real way for vr to explode would be for already established companies to make vr controls for their games, I'm thinking service games specifically. Imagine roaming in ff14 or wow in VR. I would still do hardcore content with standard controllers but I would 100 percent roam around doing stuff in VR.
Not just those, iirc it's some sort of chip that is no longer put into phones cause of money reasons. I've only owned phones with a jack slot and my current phone doesn't have fm capabilities, I've checked.
That's probably the reason why there aren't any truly good apps out there. Similar to how phones don't even have radio antenas anymore. I miss being able to use my old phone with a speaker for the drive in theater. Had to get a new radio Bluetooth speaker to replace it.
It can be sorta easy to be casual if you have an extremely knowlgeable dm. I sorta started that way, session 0 and 1 just had him help us build our characters and run a 10 minute solo goblin 'dungeon' where he explained basic rules and possible actions. The moral of the story was that you can do other things beside kill npcs. Turns out if I had attempted to talk to the goblins or even explored the area I would have realized they were orphan goblin children, malnourished and afraid... Instead I slaughtered them all for no reward or reason. One hint was that non of them were armed and they always ran at my sight. Definitely stopped any murder hobo tendencies from developing. After that he did mention our rule book and linked me to read but he could have very well not and we would have chugged along fine. I prefer pathfinder now a days better.
That wasn't in response to my racist comment but in response to the archaic comment. They're as much archaic in procedure and bureaucracy as they are advanced in tech.
It's because it's a Japanese company. I'm not saying this out of racism but because they're known for being archaic in how they do certain things. Like game modding and work schedules. Their public transit is top fucking notch though.
That does sound like a good idea in concept. I'm sure it could work in other countries but there's fuck all chance it would ever work in the US unfortunately. Japan could totally do it.
