I just got this exact one. I had to oil it up a bit because it was really stiff but now it works great. I ditched the huge sheath it came with and bought the og leather one on ebay. I wear it on my belt and it’s so compact that i hardly notice that it’s there.

9/10: would buy again but I’ll probably never have to.

fujiwood,

I had the same problem. The oxide makes it gritty and stiff so I also added oil. Luckily, just by using it over time most of the moving parts are smooth. I agree that I’d probably also buy it again. It fits my main needs perfectly.

merde, do edc w Multitool

why did you choose rebar over wave?

fujiwood,

The biggest reason was form factor then price. I wanted something that could fit my pocket comfortably. I already have a dedicated pocket knife and screw driver so while it would be nice to have better options those weren’t too much of a concern.

Unless it’s Resident Evil, then I double-tap them just to be safe.

I’ve just renewed my WoW subscription after many years away, wish me luck.

Classic or retail? Or SOD? To be honest right now is great time to get back into WoW. Multiple ways to play the game and the new xpac is actually pretty fun!

I did play a bit of classic during the break, I’m giving retail an honest go now. I did hear good things about the current X-Pac but also saw the blizzcon extracts and seems they are starting to cater more to folks like me who might not be able to play all the time. I’m also harbouring some hope they bring a port to Xbox after the Microsoft acquisition which would be great for me to be able to put more time in.

First impressions are good, I’m SHOCKED by all the quality of life stuff, and the levelling is soooo fast! Feels great but definitely a bit confusing, I quit in warlords so a lot has changed.

DagonPie,
@DagonPie@lemmy.world avatar

The leveling is a lot of fun. And running dungeons with the scaling. You can play some seriously OP classes that scale really well. I also really enjoy the new dragon mounts. They feel like guild wars flying if youve ever used those before. But yes taking away from the need to play every single day and you can hop in and out of some decent content without a crazy time sink is really nice. Im impressed! Since the last few xpacs have been pretty meh in my opinion.

I literally only played this afternoon and got my main from 35 to 59, for an old player like me that’s insane, on classic I played countless hours and never managed to catch up to max level. Not gonna lie, it’s working, I’m excited for end game and it feels like this might be an actual return. Haven’t tried the new dragon mounts I guess that’s something for when I hit 70. I’m definitely buying the war within now with the included dragon flight X-Pac (so far I only restarted the sub). I don’t know if it would work since I’m on EU servers but if you want to play soon, I’m down!

DagonPie,
@DagonPie@lemmy.world avatar

Im on NA servers but with the ease of leveling im sure i could level a character fast haha. Also cross realm is a thing too but im also not sure how that works. I agree though i feel like they really have been able to grab me with the gameplay. Its refreshing compared to how the dailies and stuff used to work. Classic too.

I was a teenage exocolonist. I hadn’t even heard of it, but it’s one of the best games I’ve played in the last 5 years.

Kind of a visual novel, card puzzler, and social sim. Like if persona had poker instead of turn based battles.

oxideseven,

Prepare to do lots of crying. I cried a lot with this game. It’s wonderful.

doctorzeromd,

I finished it yesterday. Played through the ending twice, and was planning to do it more but the second ending was so perfect and imperfect at the same time, that it just felt like it was the ending I wanted.

Amazing game, now I’m looking for similar ones!

Picked up Sonic All Stars Racing on the Deck, and it’s super fun. Never heard about the game when it came out. It’s basically Mario Kart with Sega characters, but thats… really fun.

@AverageGoob@lemmy.world avatar

Glad it has released. Gave it a shot and realized why I put it down in the first place. It’s a slog to play. 90% of the time I am just waiting around for research to complete.

graymess,

Research? I guess I don’t know what a god game is. I was picturing Black & White and I don’t remember research being a component.

AverageGoob,
@AverageGoob@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah your “nuggets” do research which is how you progress basically. Research though is just straight up time gated with no way to increase the rate. Most research items take 5-13 minutes. At most you can cut that down by half by increasing game speed by 2x. I have played the whole game up until this point on this speed and it still feels like I need a 3x or even a 4x.

graymess,

Time gated? That sounds fucking awful. Who puts time gated mechanics in a game outside of mobile garbage?

AverageGoob,
@AverageGoob@lemmy.world avatar

I mean I get it - research takes time, but at least dress up a little with like “science points” or something rather than just a straight up time limit.

falsem,

This is like Black and White mixed with Civilization.

graymess,

Oh no. That sounds like my ideal game.

dracs,

It can sometimes be a slow play 😎

  • Yakuza 0 – doing the real estate thing as Kiryu; already beat two Kings
  • Lunacid – the atmosphere is amazing, but this game desperately needs a pause button

Also about to try Factorio once again

Last time I tried it I found it nice, but overwhelming and without much incentive to continue playing it. Maybe this time this changes

Fancy that.

I’m going through Yakuza Kiwami at the moment, hoping to maybe finish it over the weekend and then start number 2.

Hoping to have Granblue Fantasy Relink next week. Wasn’t able to secure a copy due to low stock.

Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth. Awesome, awesome game that I can’t put down. I started the series in 2020 and played through the whole thing that year, so all the references to the past games make it that much better.

I’ve been glued to BeamNG.drive, ever since I finally broke down and decided “it’s not gonna get much cheaper than this” during the Steam sale.

It’s exactly, precisely what I thought it would be. Half completely freeform “let’s crash cars and watch them crumple in slow motion” and half “let’s do these scenarios.” Flip back and forth between the two, and it’s suddenly “oh, SHIT, how did three hours go by already???”

I’ll get around to poking my nose into the modding scene, soon enough, too. I haven’t even touched that side of it, yet.

Also, the game apparently has VR support, which I didn’t realize until I bought it. I haven’t bothered trying that out, since I also don’t have my driving wheel set up, at the moment. Driving games with a controller are basically the only category of VR content that can give me the ol’ lunch-launch-itis.

Assassin’s Mirage. It’s not good but not bad as well. Better to wait for a sale and complete it ASAP before Ubisoft shuts down the servers in a few years.

Dlayknee,

I’m a die-hard AC fan, but typically only play through the game/story once and then put it on the shelf. This year, I picked up the UbiWhatever subscription at $15/mo, played through AC Mirage in a couple of weeks, and dropped the subscription. It’s even better than waiting for a sale!

@alphacyberranger@lemmy.world avatar

That ain’t a bad idea and will definitely work out for games that don’t need grinding like Valhalla

Grass, do games w The Weekly 'What are you playing?' Discussion

Grounded. Awful xbl sign in experience that turned out to require turning off the pihole type AdBlock or whitelisting like 70 weird m$ domains. No dedicated server so can’t self host on a desktop and playing with friends requires the save owner to be available or use a janky save sharing thing that probably can’t solve the case of co-op team accidentally hosting it separately and progressing because steam notifications are annoying and turned off. Game is decent enough otherwise and most of the things I didn’t like in gameplay turned out to be upgradeables that would eventually become less irritating. It’s a buildcraft survival with bugs and spiders and the player characters are small enough that a blade of grass is more like a tree trunk.

Curdie,

My friends and I had a blast in grounded. Really good times

TEKKEN 8!

If you like competitive fighting games, play them early on release. Its when ranked mode really does feel wild. It balances out as the game ages but those early rank battles are an absolute blast. Plus the game looks incredible and always has an absolute banger of a soundtrack.
