Annoyance leads to a group that is willing to put up with it getting all the rewards but hating the game because it's annoying and a second group that doesn't put up with it but hates that they're missing out on the stuff the first group is getting. Everyone loses.My thoughts on this subject probably merit its own discussion thread, so here it is.
Grod's Law: You cannot and should not balance bad mechanics by making them annoying to useYears ago on the Giant in the Playground forums (a community for the D&D 3.5 edition tabletop roleplaying game), an argument broke out when a user recommended balancing the absurd power of magic using classes by making them meticulously track their material components for each spell.
The inappropriate powergamer figures out how to circumvent the restriction. His power remains the same.PoE isn't a collaborative tabletop game like D&D, so "inappropriate powergamer" is, well, an inappropriate name for this group. Optimizing gameplay in PoE is perfectly reasonable and encouraged. But people who trade crafts in large volume on TFT or are in massive guilds throwing around thousands of exalts are not your average optimizer, and are not affected by this cumbersome barrier to entry. They find the optimal solution and just incorporate it into their gameplay and profit off it massively.
The reasonable player either figures out how to circumvent the restriction (rendering it moot), avoids the class (turning it into a ban) or suffers through it. His power remains the same and/or his enjoyment goes down.Reasonable player -> average PoE player. The distinction between these two groups can get fuzzy, but it's hard to argue that someone playing 40 hours per week and someone playing 10 hours per week can achieve the same levels of effectiveness. Practice makes perfect, and practice takes time. Those in large communities are, likewise, not really playing the same game as the solo players (e.g. aura-bots, trade groups, etc.). For some, efficiency is measured in chaos per hour. For a few, it can be exalts per hour. This group is very much the former.
The new player avoids the class or suffers through it. His enjoyment goes down.Class -> game mechanic. In this case, I'm sure a lot of people just pretend the Sacred Grove doesn't exist. Harvest is a thing that other people do. And if they do choose to engage with it, its cumbersomeness and complexity means their overall enjoyment of PoE is diminished. I couldn't even begin to explain the system to someone new to the game, at least in a reasonable manner that doesn't sound like a college economics lecture.
Last Updated: February 2, 2021 11:56 PM ETJust like we did with Andromeda, we are making a megathread and FAQ to contain common discussions and questions regarding the Legendary remaster and the next Mass Effect game. Sources and new information will be added as more details are released. All posts regarding the information in this post will be removed, so please use this thread to discuss those topics. This post will be linked in the sidebar FAQ section. Please also keep our rules in mind when posting as they are available in the sidebar. This FAQ is spoiler-free on plot (not story) details, but if you do not wish to be spoiled on any details of the game, do not read this. If you have ideas on other frequent questions that you feel should be added to this list or have corrections/additional info, feel free to post them in the comments. Lastly, thanks to the idea from u/N7_anonymous_guy, I have created some subreddit-exclusive post awards for us in celebration! So far, they are all in the 500 coin tier and include the Biotic God Award, Paragon Award, Renegade Award, Paragade Award, and the N7 Award. Check them out! And please enjoy the new view of the banner :) Mass Effect : Legendary Editionhttps://preview.redd.it/a4coglayfi461.jpg?width=1024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7349d3fa2b3dcfbdfb50ee2bda454737228bf11bBioware Blog post and main announcement: LINK Important excerpts: For many months now, our team at BioWare has been hard at work updating the textures, shaders, models, effects, and technical features of three enormous games. Our goal was not to remake or reimagine the original games, but to modernize the experience so that fans and new players can experience the original work in its best possible form.When will the Legendary Edition be released? As of February, the release date has been announced as May 14, 2021. What platforms will the Legendary Edition be available on? Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Windows PCs, Xbox Series X, and PlayStation 5. Is there a trailer for the Legendary Edition? Yes, there is a teaser trailer HERE and a 4K reveal trailer HERE. What aspects will be remastered/what will be changed or added? This is what we know so far:
The Next Mass EffectHas the next Mass Effect game been announced?Yes, in the above N7 day blog post from Bioware, they announced that they are working on the next ME and released this teaser image: Mud Skipper Fans have speculated that the figures seen are a human, Angara, Drell, and Salarian, but none of these details have been officially confirmed. The image above has been titled "Mud Skipper." Further, The Bioware Blog also made a post after the 2020 Game Awards trailer release HERE. When will it be released and which platforms will it be on? At this time we do not know what platforms the game will be on as we have no idea when it will be released. The Next Mass Effect is still a long way away and may even be released with a whole new generation of consoles. Is there any other concept art? Yes, some concept art for the next Mass Effect was released in the new art book Bioware: Stories and Secrets from 25 Years of Game Development. See photos HERE and upscaled images from Casey Hudson himself HERE. Is there a trailer? Yes; watch it HERE. During the Game Awards on December 10, 2020, a new teaser trailer was released featuring Liara at the end and some unknown figures standing with the "Mud Skipper" ship. Other familiar imagery include someone (presumably Liara) climbing a Reaper carcass, a destroyed Mass Relay, and a piece of an N7 Breather Helmet in Liara's hands. Mike Gamble stated in a TWEET that he had been waiting "1,360" days for this, which is the exact number of days since Andromeda's release on March 21, 2017 up to the 2020 Game Awards. He also said "This trailer has much to unpack. Look. And listen closely :)" seemingly referring to the voices talking at the beginning of the trailer. Some of the voices and sounds include "first contact protocol," "Ark 6 is away," a reaper blast, and "we've lost contact." Ark 6 is the Quarian Ark from Andromeda. Is The Next Mass Effect a sequel to the original trilogy or Andromeda? We don't know yet. Any confirmed details will be in this post. I will use this question to post some Tweets from people involved with the project that seem to imply that it is both. https://twitter.com/GambleMike/status/1337235463266942976: Replying to @Joanna_Berry: Opening shot also has very pointed imagery of two galaxies... my mind is racing... are we going to get.. a single sequel to both games?!https://twitter.com/taylorson/status/1337229803636682753: Tom Taylorson @taylorson: Look at all the games I’m not involved with! [winky face emojis]https://twitter.com/GambleMike/status/1337259652220764163: Replying to @reich_the: I can't say I'm not excited, but Bioware just abandoned Andromeda. This is not good, some of us connected with Ryder and crew. Bioware just slapped us, and gave us candy.https://twitter.com/GambleMike/status/1337242303069474816: Michael Gamble @GambleMike Replying to @Zoober: But who is in the background, nathan? You know. But the world doesnt. But can they figure it out? Who knows!https://twitter.com/GambleMike/status/1337229313733640193: Replying to @JustACyberLad: I heard "Godspeed" and all can I think of is that moment of taking off in the Tempest for the first time.Is there a title for the next game? Not yet. At this time it is just being called The Next Mass Effect. Who is composing the sound track and will any of the OT or Andromeda music be back? We don't know yet, but Benjamin Wallfisch composed the music for the Game Awards teaser trailer. Who is working on this game? The N7 Day blog post stated that a "veteran team" is working on the game. Although Casey Hudson recently left Bioware, Mike Gamble Tweeted on 12/11/20 that the following veterans are working on the game. He also stated that "As time goes on, you'll get to know more of us."

(Sorry for shitty title. I tried posting this last night originally but it was taken down or something. Not sure why.) submitted by BornShook to smallstreetbets [link] [comments] First of all i would like to comment on the state of this sub. I am sure there are more noobies here than usual. I would just like to remind everyone that I am not a financial planner. I am not here to give you sound financial advice. I am simply sharing an opinion, which I will give my rationale for with all of the facts and figures, but it is opinion none the less. I am not trying to "pump" a stock, I am just giving information and opinions on a stock. This post could get two likes or two thousand likes for all I know. This is for gambling purposes only people! Anyway, let's talk about Party City (PRTY). Been following this company since June. Let's look at some charts: 1 year chart. Started retesting the $8 resistance level today. Could make a breakout soon Bars and restaurants around the country have been closed or forced to operate at reduced capacity all year. This is especially true in the north east, where Party City has it's largest footprint. People think "Party store during a pandemic? Parties are banned!" Therefore everyone just assumed this company was dead in the dirt. Wall Street should have realised that the opposite would be true if anything. People have limited options on what to do for parties. You can't go to public places for celebrations like you used to, so at home small gatherings obviously would go up. This is totally anecdotal and off topic, but when I was in a Party City store 2 days before Halloween, there was a line wrapped around the store. They had 4 registers open and it still took me 30 minutes to get out of there. Financials: Have a go at their balance sheet if you'd like. The declines in 2019 were reflected in their stock price. In the short term though, there doesn't seem to be any major red flags. https://www.marketbeat.com/stocks/NYSE/PRTY/financials/ Uncategorized facts: 1.) After several quarters of net losses, they managed to return to profitability last quarter posting earnings of $240 million on $534 million in revenue. 2.) Hedge funds and institutional buyers have been quietly increasing their positions in PRTY. To prove I'm not bullshitting this time, source 3.) Next ER comes out in march and will contain Halloween sales. 4.) Party City doesn't just sell made in China party supplies. They actually manufacture everything themselves, so their margins are really good. A small sales boost could send them to the moon. Likewise, declines could be devastating due to high overhead. It's a very cyclical business. 5.) Short interest has been trending down and is currently about 7.4% of float. That's very low for a brick and mortar retailer. There are a lot of diamond handed stocktwits traders in this as well as HFs and institutional buyers. So in short, this is no longer a "squeeze chasing" type stock. It could be an actual good investment. If you get in well before their halloween sales are reported, you can ride the hype wave. Anyway, for those of you who have a boner for charts, here's a few more time frames you should look at before we discuss options. 5 year chart 6 month chart Technical indicators are very bullish short term. I am eyeing the MACD crossover about to happen on the 6 month and 1 year charts specifically. How to play this stock: Shouldn't be too hard to figure out. You're going to want to go with either the march or april options so the earnings will be included. Now, liquidity is actually looking pretty good on the 4/16 $10 calls. Now before you go investing in PRTY or any other stock for that matter, do your own research. I'm sure I left out a lot of important information. I also didn't go too deep into their financials, but I've looked into all that in the past, and you should too. I wanted to post this on wsb but they won't let you post about stocks with a market cap below $1b (PRTY market cap is 875 million). Positions: 25 shares @ $2.12. Small position I'm not getting rich off of or anything but I figured I'd give you guys some ideas. My pt is $12 so what I'll probably do is cut my position in half when it hits $12. I also might gamble on some call options once we get closer to earnings but we'll see. Anyways, enjoy your free 6 piece nuggets and a small sprite my fellow small street autistic brethren. PRTY hard, but not too hard. And keep in mind, Party City sells balloons. You know where balloons go right? (Balloon emoji) (Moon emoji) Update: Today, PRTY is up around 4%, and has broke out above $8 officially. Make of that however you'd like. Edit: I tried posting this yesterday and it was removed or something. So I'm reposting because I put a good deal of effort into this. Please leave it up mods. PRTY is too too big to be considered a penny stock, and too small to be discussed on wsb, so this is the only logical place to post about it. Edit 2: Quick short interest analysis: This is bullet list from this source >A day to cover of between 1 and 4 usually indicates strong positive sentiment and a lack of interest from short-sellers >A day to cover above 10 indicates extreme pessimism >Short interest as a percentage of float below 10% indicates strong positive sentiment >Short interest as a percentage of float above 10% is fairly high, indicating the significant pessimistic sentiment >Short interest as a percentage of float above 20% is extremely high PRTY short interest is 6.72% of float according to this source (other source said 7.4% not sure which is more reliable). Also according to this source, days to cover are 2.0. So the market is very optimistic for this stock. Good or bad? You decide. |
