I personally can't wait for automated cars so that when I have to drive for 6 hours somewhere I can spend that time doing pretty much anything else. I love cruise control and it's not just because it can save gas on the highway. Only time I have wished I could drive manual is when I've been used car shopping and see the sweet manual cars people are selling.

Do you have to know how to drive a manual to get your license in the US? Over here there are two different licenses, one for manual and one for automatic, and you aren't allowed to drive a manual if you got the automatic license.

One lisence, don't need to know manual. The vast majority of cars are automatic. I believe it's gotten to the point where you have to specifically ask for a manual - if the model even offers it.

Though I will note, my mom's care is default automatic, but you can shift into manual.

Is it like, you move the stick over and you can click up or down to adjust gear? Cuz that's just not really the same feel.

I don't understand why people would ever want to drive a manual.

Granted, I have never driven a manual. But I would also never want to.


It really comes down to control and throttle response for me. On a manual your pedal has a direct link to your throttle and fuel injection; engine has a direct link to your tranny. You press pedal and your car goes. No delay. (Except in German cars w/ fly by wire... zzz) You also know directly what your foot poistion means in terms of engine speed and usage; as you also control your gear with a good foot you control your speed precisely.

On an automatic they have a computer that takes your input and assumes what you're trying to do, maths out a curve, decides best gear and fuel input / air intake. As good as computers are this is a complicated multivariable calculation (throttle opening, fuel air ratio, the spot on tge cvt through the entire movement) that requires iteration. You press pedal and the car things for a third of a second then gives you what you want. However, it's confusing because your car is interpolation what it assumes you want but that isn't always what you want; your pedal position has no consistency in its correlation with your engine or your actual speed; wherevyour foot is on the pedal means different things depending on the situation.

The best analogy I can give is that driving a manual is like playing darksouls with no input lag and driving an automatic is like playing shadow of mordor with a slight
input lag. Your results of play either way is a horde of dead things, and maybe shadow of motor bro even did cooler stuff; but the precision, timing, lack of input delay, and lack of assumptions about my intentions in many peoples opinions leads to a more enjoyable game that feels more engaging and rewarding.

Hearthstone is really making me so mad. I get matched up with infinite priest decks when i want to play a deck that loses to priest and then when i swap to shaman to just walk over the control i play nothing but mirrors and aggro decks.

All i want is to play vs meta decks, not your random trash. I shouldnt be sitting here wondering how to beat damn cthun druid.

there is nothing fun about getting beat by random cards because you are playing around the good ones.

I've been playing C'thun Druid here and there. It's a really silly deck. The meta is what people are playing. It's a part (albeit rare) of the meta.

do they play cthun druid with 2x starfall and the deathrattle snake for malygos. because thats a deck ive run into.

there is no "gitgud" for playing vs random cards. its just random chance.

I wouldnt mind nearly as much if you could play control outside of the super value priest and mage. but the existence of quest rogue shuts out every decktype i enjoyed in hearthstone, so now im trying to play other stuff but always running into nonsense makes it decidedly unfun.

I guess I just don't really look at driving as an activity where my priority is fun. That's not to say it can't be fun, it certainly can be.

But my priority is to not get killed, and to that end I want to have as few responsibilities as possible while doing it so that I can focus on not getting killed.

Hence, I would never want to drive a manual.

I kind of want to learn how though, just in case of emergency.

Say Yango, could there be another game out there that allows for multiple deck archetypes at tier 1 level constructed power? If so, what game would that be? It sounds really interesting and I think you should tell us more about it.

WHAT IS THIS HERESY.

I say this to Hearthstone players all the time, and I think the stock response is to grasp it more tightly and start twitching uncontrollably. At some point this is going to be diagnosed as a genuine disease state.

I lost a control mirror I shouldn't have in today's showdown because I missplayed. That was my fault and I should have played things slower and played around what my opponent showed me game 1.

It's hard to quit playing hearthstone, because there's always time for a five minute hearthstone game.

The reality of a game like that is the quality bar that it needs to meet is very low, because at the end of the day it's not actually requiring a lot of time or money.

card games kinda suck across the board right now. and i actually have HS cards, so there is no point in investing in a game thats in just as bad of a spot.

Faeria is still super duper fun.

Although it's getting a bit more boring, their update cycle is fairly slow.
