@Unionhawk Community has always been bumping questions

Unionhawk

@badp I mean the notification is new

ur face is new

I mean last time I checked you had a different avatar

but at this point your avatar is pretty much white noise

That gives me a really dumb idea that I'm not going to do but it'd be this:

Besides I used this avatar last year and it's still the christmas season

@Unionhawk "The guy who invented the solo cup and I can't even be bothered to state his name" doesn't count as "celebrity", and stuff like this is a lot of what people are claiming for 2016

I also feel like people past their natural life expectancy shouldn't count

Also, the thing I'm starting to hate most about 2016 is all the complaining about 2016

badp

@Unionhawk -1 not actually a QR code

Zachiel

Uhm... hello. Is it on topic to post questions asking for online resources that can be used to play games, like asking where the best walkthrough for a game is or where I can find (that's the actual question) a tool that helps me in choosing which rare Gwent cards are better among the three I can choose from each booster?

Unionhawk

@badp No it's white noise

@Sterno on that note 2016 is still never going to end

Zachiel

Nobody knows the answer to my question?

Should I just try and at most the question will get closed?

@Sterno I thought old people liked to complain. Also 2016 is basically just a meme at this point.

@Zachiel I feel like it's a bit of an on the fence thing.

Zachiel

17:43

well ok maybe the walkthrough thing is opinion based

Yuuki

@Unionhawk Good lord, this 2016 counter-circlejerk is just as annoying.

But much less amusing.

Zachiel

but say I were to ask "where can I find an online tool that helps me choose the best-value cards for Hearthstone Arena?

RedRiderX

@Zachiel I could see some people making a "no asking-for-general-recommendation questions" argument against it, but I'm not sure.

Yuuki

@Sterno But the complaining about the complaining about 2016 is getting annoying much faster than the complaining about 2016 did.

@RedRiderX That's totally fine and how it's expected to work.

Q: How do I know I'm choosing the best card in the keg?

In Gwent, when you open a Keg you get to choose which rare you get among three different cards. If I'm not aiming for a particular deck (or if none of the cards I get are in that decklist) how do I know which cards I'd better get? I'm not an experienced player, I've seen a few decks and I have n...

Q: Sold machinery items, is there a way to get them back?

As the question asks. I didn't really think about it at the time and just remembered after visiting Cid that they're upgradeable and unique. Is there any way for me to recover the machinery weapons I sold? I kept the circular saw but sold the bioblaster and the autocrossbow.

@TimStone games should just allow multiple device inputs at once

I would also award the following awards:

"Why am I still playing this, I don't even like the genre" - Overwatch
"What gibbon decided on this control scheme and why are they still employed?" - Dark Souls 3
"I think I'm in love..." - Rocket League
"I'm not crying, that cutscene just had too much lens flare, honest" - WoW: Legion

Tim Stone

@Chippies I mean in this case it kind of does, I think. Pretty sure it's picking up on the joystick deadzone and repeatedly switching back and forth between keyboard and controller

Which is obviously not ideal >_>

Had to disable the joystick for now (as an OS device)

Chippies

@TimStone ah, I usually just unplug the controller if that issue occurs

it's the worst though when you can't use keyboard while a controller input is detected and vice versa

Tim Stone

Yeah, that's true
