I wonder if skyrim is worth getting on the switch, considering that I've heard that the game is really only tolerable due to mods...

If the single-player MMO style of RPG is appropriate for the Switch, then I guess it's an okay purchase. I still have only disdain for that game as a whole though so I don't think it's worth your hard-earned money.

Skyrim is not a bad game at all, but it's kinda really rough around the edges, mods do help a lot but the base game is still plenty enjoyable.

ill buy it on switch at some point, and i'm sure i'll play a lot of it, but i haven't had the chance.

To be quite honest, the most i hate about that game is combat & leveling system, they are clearly tolerable (my PC died during the time Skyrim came out so i had to play it on my 360 and i played like art least 200 hours and i was fine), but man, i hate that leveling system... since its all about sploiting it

Problem is that once you mod skyrim is hard to go back to vanilla

I literally googled this today

I'm playing skyrim with just the unofficial bug patch on ps4 RN and it's pretty good, but idk how bad it'd be w/o the patch. Vanilla's still pretty fun tho.

Recap of recent Matchmakingchange:

Upsides: Partyq is damn competitive, pretty sure this is the best patch there has been

Downsides: Soloq is unbearable, 2-3k mmrgaps are standard (have seen a 9k with a 5k) No experience if its the same for the rest of the userbase

that is kinda the shitty part about being super high ranked, mm changes already made the mmr spread in the game wider in order to accommodate roles so queues wouldn't take forever. with extremely high mmr the system was already struggling finding timely games for them, naturally it would get worse.

Nice to hear from u goody! Sad to see you leave a secure employment behind, but I can very much relate to feeling stuck in a position where one doesn't develop (pardon the pun) as much as one would like to.
So brave move and fingers crossed that you find a job worthy your time.

Yeah thanks man ! i actually like the people there and well the work is kinda dynamic i don't only code but i also do secretarial work, fix computer stuff, practically function as a network administrator, lineman and sometimes a carpenter lmao(i really like none-focused work but just work) but i can't stay. I have to keep grinding and i am not grinding there.

Who are you visiting in scotland ?

Will be visiting a family I got to know there and of course nature.
Maybe I'll have the opportunity to introduce myself to a couple of consultancies while I'm up there, but I'll have to figure out whether this is something sensible to do first.

Have call to arms timings for high mmr players. So they know when to queue and when to just watch series for 30 min instead of queueing for 30 min. Being high divine/low immortal playing pos 5 mostly I don't really see any major differences in mmr spread compared to before. Queue time might even be faster than previously since so many people are waiting for me to fill out their queues :D

(Though I've only played 8 solo games since it was implemented. Not a huge fan of solo unless I am looking to improve.)

Grimstroke, IO and Dark Willow will probably be more contested than all of those cores. If more teams had good Chen players, him as well.

How much are you printing? 10 pages? 1000? 10000? If 10, just borrow the one at your local library.

Apart from that all advice I have seen say to avoid the cheap inkjet ones. The ink dries out if you print little, thus become expensive. If you print a lot the ink is expensive.

Inkjet printers are generally cheaper, smaller, and have the versatility to print both text-based documents and high quality images, especially photos. BUT be wary of cheap inkjet printers as those will end up costing you a fortune later on.

Laser printers, on the other hand, may be expensive upfront and uses pricier toner cartridges but still offers an overall lower cost per page, faster print speeds and typically involve a lower total cost of ownership.

https://www.ldproducts.com/blog/pros-cons-of-inkjet-and-laser-printers/ mirrors most advice I've seen.

But beware of dirt cheap inkjet printers. These cheap models have a high cost per page and use cartridges that can print only a few hundred pages that you’ll end up having to replace cartridges frequently. Before you know it, you’ve already spent more on ink cartridges than the printer itself.


Here’s a summary of the differences between an inkjet and laser printer.
Inkjet Printers

PROS

Inkjet printers are usually smaller and lighter – making it ideal for a bedroom or home office where space saving is valued.
Great at producing photo quality prints and image-heavy documents, as inkjet printers do a better job of blending and producing vibrant colors than laser printers.
The price of an inkjet printer is less than most laser printers.
No warm-up time needed before printing.
Can print on a variety of paper types, including glossy photo paper, textured art paper, and fabrics.
Can accommodate larger paper sizes.
Ink refill kits can reduce the cost of printing.

CONS:

Ink is expensive, especially for users who print on a regular basis who are continually forced to repurchase more cartridges because ink cartridges can only print a few hundred pages.
Much slower than laser printers.
Low-capacity paper trays of 50 to 100 sheets, which can be frustrating for a user who prints a lot.
Low monthly duty cycle (the maximum amount of prints possible in a given month without causing damage to the printer).

Laser Printers

PROS:

Most laser printers print much faster than inkjet printers. This isn’t and shouldn’t be a strong selling point for casual printers, but high volume users will notice a huge difference.
Laser printers produce sharp text. If you’re a high volume printer that only requires text documents, laser is the way to go.
Higher monthly duty cycle means they are better prepared to handle high-volume jobs.
A price-by-price comparison favors laser printers over inkjet printers if you print on a frequent basis and aren’t producing documents that are graphically complex.
Toner, on average, is cheaper in the long run for high volume printers because their cartridges can print out thousands of pages in comparison to ink cartridges.

CONS:

Can handle simple graphics, but complex images and photos are a challenge.
Although there are some compact laser printers on the market, they are generally bigger and heavier than inkjet printers.
Laser printers can’t handle the same variety of paper that inkjets can.
The upfront cost of a laser printer is usually more than your average inkjet printer.
