Wearing designer clothes is the same. Paying £40 vs £5 for an ironed on advert is dumb AF.

Hey I saw a Dior backpack with a price tag of £2000 in it's own house in a shop the other month. THE TOP DOESN'T EVEN ZIP UP!

Also, they're less easy to stall.

Therefore you have to engage the anti-stall system by operating the activation mechanism under your right foot.

Berserk art sucks (manga, anime idk)

 

Or the illustrations are too clean, poorly detailed, and boring, or the illustrations are too heavy, there are so much details in a single scene, that makes the whole thing indistinguishable, like a patch of colour in the paper

Also the characters are pretty much poligonal.. which is meh

I agree

 

But the thing is that many times there is a social pressure into investing in that kind of bullcrap

Like at school, if you didn't/don't dress yourself with branded bullcrap, you could easily get mobbed

Which is why at schools in the UK we have uniform

Btw do they require to pick up some specific expensive uniforms, or are they some generic design that can be found for cheap? 

Because usually everything that is school related is expensive and useless af, like every year there is a new pricey edition of a book that is based on the same source as the first one

We don't pay for books until Uni they're provided by the school and the uniform is generally black trousers from anywhere, white shirt, tie and blazer with the only thing you could count as being expensive being the blazer which varies from £20-40 normally.

-Consoles will always be better for competitive multiplayer gaming due cheaters. (I'm PCMR, but true unfortunately.)

How do you reconcile the gap between people who are able to plug a mouse and keyboard into their systems versus those who play on controller?  Do you segregate or let 'em go at it?

[Energycore]

I like eating cucumber with the skin.

 

And not in slices, but munching on it.

 

In fact it's one of the very few fruit I can eat daily

Well i'm a controller player myself for Call of Duty and all campaign games  Just because I have been a console player for many years and only switched to PCMR in 2018. I am drastically better on Call of Duty with a controller and have 3.00+ K/D however with a KB/M I only get around 1.40 K/D. I use controller for campaign games like Darksouls etc just because it's more comfortable.

 

I then use KB/M though for all other compettive PC games like Overwatch, anything BR related etc. 

 

So yeah, I don't mind if people use controller though. I understand people's annoyance at aim assist, but the reality of it after years of experience (I have also made numerous threads on this forum about this actually) an expert professional KB/M player will be better than an expert controller player. So when you get all these peeps hating on controllers players, in reality most of the time they are just lacklustre. 

Well, I guess this shows how out of touch I am with the competitive shooter genre.

I was thinking controller players would be at a distinct disadvantage over kb/m players.

Yeah I guess I'm just too careful (and still learning). Still, I have to do some serious work to get our diesel car to stall, while all petrol cars I've driven stalled much easier. Not a biggie, just a minor inconvenience to me.

It's very true though; petrol cars have less torque at low rpm so they're more likely to stall.

And I like the sound more.

What I like about the sound of diesel engines, is that even the smallest of them sound like a tractor, meaning you can be driving an absolutely tiny vehicle and still feel like you're in some sort of lorry. A diesel vehicle always sounds "bigger" than it actually is.

Features? Yes, at least physically, but software and shear power is a different beast.

I meant the actual hardware, we can discuss the software another time.

 

Sure, extra power. Great. But for what? Android 10 runs beautifully on a budget Moto E from 5 years ago (flashed TWRP and a custom ROM), so it's not for the new operating system.

 

The trade-offs are loss of ports and really fragile glass-all-over designs.

Well in the UK, they increased the cost of going to University from £6,000 to £9,000 per year in the last 10 years. Most degrees are 3 years so that's £27,000 and not including materials, student accommodation etc. 

However the student loans are a lot more forgiving; it's pretty rare to be on the hook for more than you can afford.

Most US unis that’s like a year. Maybe 1.5. Higher costs can be that much a. Month iirc.

If I had invested the time I put into controller onto KB/M I would probably be really good at KB/M which I would have preferred because the skill ceiling for KB/M is higher in my opinion. 

Aimlabs and kovaak make you really good really quick if you bother to use it frequently. I spend like 10-15 mins the days i can game. Went from 2.4 targets per second to 3.9 in a month.

 

(Fairly sure you can use controllers om trainers too)
