#i tried reinstalling the game but <:)

I'm so glad I got to play 2 hours of BG3 before my one (1) month old PS5 broke

#literally I have tried everything except restoring the whole console which I am about to do #its not just BG3 but I thought it was because that's the game I was playing when it just stopped working #but it just won't play any game now #I actually get the farthest in BG3 because I make it to a menu before it crashes #every other game crashes before I even get that far #everything is up to date #I've cleared and rebuilt everything I could without just straight up restoring everything #I actually uninstalled and reinstalled BG3 because I thought that was the issue and it wasn't

an unnecessarily long rant about windows 11, bitlocker, bulldozers, and one sad man's quest to format his 2tb nvme ssd

it's incredible how bad microsoft can make a product. windows 11 home pushes bitlocker on my drives without my knowledge or consent, encrypting them without a recovery key. fine. one of the encrypted drives (i have 2) gets corrupted! uh oh! the metadata of the single partition drive is now GONE! oh well! 'twas just my steam library and some stray GOG downloads. no worries! we'll just forma-the drive is now read only and every goddamn low level, registry edit, diskpart solution found anywhere online does squat. can't format the drive because it's read only and bitlocker encrpyted too somehow? okay. maybe the drive being encrypted has something to do with the permanant current read only state. let's go into settings and manage our bitlocker in control panel, yknow, like you've been able to for since it was released in 2013. FIne fine fine i'll go do that. microsoft does not include the ability to manage bitlocker via any other way than command prompt and powershell if you do not pay $100 for windows 11 professional and like WHATEVER right i've been using windows for 15 of my 20 years on this planet i can definitely handle some easy commands except oh wait the commands don't work? and the documentation for them is poor or nonexistant? oh and your now completely RAW drive actually doesn't have the relevant information to remove bitlocker at all???? i fail to see why formatting a drive cares what the fuck is on it anyway??? it's supposed to be like the bulldozer and also the vogons at the start of hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy, right? you just format the drive and all of the everything on it is supposed to get bulldozered and space lasered and filleted into new, clean, workable data! i can't clean the drive with diskpart because it's encrpyted, and i can't decrypt it because it has bad blocks where the metadata is!

#windows 11 #ssd #fuck microsoft #bulldozer #diskpart #diskpart sucks #fuck diskpart #fuck bitlocker #bitlocker #for the price of windows 11 pro i can replace the ssd with a gen 4 nvme 2tb crucial drive that is about 2000mb/s faster than what i have #seems like overkill #yes i tried non microsoft tools #they didn't work either #aomei and macrium reflect both did nothing to help me except ask me to throw money at them #there is nothing of value of this drive i just want to format it and reinstall my steam games #fuck this shit #i'm so so so sorry if you read this expecting anything intresting about programming or tech or whatever or a big aha moment but it's just a #ouroborus snake of me getting fist fucked by the ghost of bill and melinda gates' marriage.

already regret moving my game..

#maybe it’s just because i also tried moving my documents to my hdd as well to make space on my ssd but the game was IMPOSSIBLE to load #hopefully that helps but if it’s still impossible to load i’m just moving everything back to my ssd and reinstalling the game all of last #night will be for nothing #cheers #non sims

My RW keeps opening to just a black screen and it's making me unreasonably upset

#zoc scrambled #this has been happening forr #a day now? I tried letting it rest #it only started happening after I downloaded OSHA shelters #so I got rid of that but it still wouldn't work #I unsubscribed to a few other mods and it wouldn't work #I reinstalled the entire game but it just #hrRHHHHHHHHH #and I feel so stupid for being upset #because it IS stupid #it's souring my mood and I hate it #it's like a scared upset #sorry #brain bad itch

[quickhacked]

should i attempt to update cyberpunk over the weekend

#personal #have not done that in so long because one of the updates broke one of my mods #which then proceeded to permanently break my game LMFAO #i have the means to downgrade back i know what to do so it Should be fine even if i break the game again #it's just so tedious man. idk if it's worth itttt #think i just need to keep running the game as admin forever and ever when i got it updated to avoid the launcher #because i feel like that's what's killing it. possibly #every time i tried to verify my files back then it put broken mod files back 😭 #EVEN WHEN I HAD NO MODS INSTALLED #tbf it might be my savegames then actually #which also don't matter that much. i just need to finish writing down everyone's slider settings #and then i can just do a complete clean reinstall

Many people have asked that I cover Skip Broke, as he was briefly mentioned in my Bella Goth theory. Here's what I'm finding so far:

First off, I want to apologize for the two year long wait for this. I have tried doing this beforehand, but circumstances (homeless and DV and all that jazz) prevented it from happening. Now that I'm in a much more stable environment, I'm able to properly give Skip the look-through that he needs because too much isn't adding up.

Once again, I know there are game mechanics involved in these fun little mysteries. Especially since the Sims 2 is put together by Elmer's glue and drunken spite. But I'm not here for that, that's not my area of expertise, and there are plenty of videos on Youtube that explain those game mechanics nicely if you want THAT. My point of posting is that I'm noticing that ALL main games, YES, even 4 though it doesn't follow the same timeline as 1 and 2, (3 acting as a universal bridge) are telling a story, and I personally find that solving these silly little mysteries adds a new experience to gameplay. After all, we ARE talking about video games here. It's all about fun.

Anyway, I digress. You've asked, you shall receive, and I've already found a lot. Here's a quick teaser into that:

#1: Brandi Broke likely took the age reversal serum at least once. (I've done the math, and there's at least three days unaccounted for, ironically that's about how much the age reversal serum removes.)

#1a: It seems that Bella and Brandi are not the only people who have taken age reversal serum in Pleasantview, with Bella taking the most of the serum and everyone else only taking one or two doses.

#2: Skip's clone "died" after Skip did and tried to take Skip's place for a little while after he died (which would explain why he's present for Dustin's teenage birthday and Beau's birth, even though Skip died just before Dustin aged up to teen.)

#3: I know a lot of people (myself included) like to speculate that Brandi killed Skip for his insurance money, however, evidence suggests that there's something else going on here that might clear Brandi's name.

Anyway, that's happening. <3

#the sims #the sims 2 #the sims 3 #the sims 4 #bella goth #skip broke #what happened to skip broke #brandi broke is innocent #more than likely #i remember buzzfeed tried passing off that there was a conspiracy around Bella's death #It's not Bella that has the conspiracy lemme tell you that right now #I have to download SimPE now #And tool around with that #Might need to reinstall the game #but that is a sacrifice i am willing to make #alex plays sims

Ok, so I bought the ace attorney trilogy hd full version a while ago. My school work got in the way of me playing consistently so I decided to take a very long break from the game. I know it’s technically been a while since all this happened but recently I decided to get back to playing the game and I’m presented with a part of the screen being just black. So I can’t even manual save while playing the game, and some of the text boxes (especially evidence entries) get cut off. And from what I can tell you can’t like port your save from this game to the new version of trilogy released on mobile without paying for the full game on that version yet again. Does anyone know how to fix this black screen issue at all? I have 3 cases left on this game and I don’t just wanna buy the new version of trilogy all over again just to finish it. The new game is 600 Turkish liras here, and I already paid a similar amount in hd so😭 idk I’m kinda hopeless

#I need help #I know I’m very late to realizing this issue please don’t hate me #ace attorney trilogy #ace attorney trilogy hd #ace attorney #someone please help me #capcom why #ace attorney trials and tribulations #I’ve tried erasing and reinstalling the game #didn’t work #phoenix wright ace attorney

I can’t 100% Ori and the Blind Forest but I did get to about 90% which is good enough for my overall completion percentage

#so says Indy #Indy and video games #I started three games so it went down two percent #I want to keep it at 60 bc I feel like that's attainable #I did all of them except the 'play the game perfectly' achievements which are dumb #and there's one that I can't get to work but it might be broken #some people said it didn't work for them until they uninstalled and reinstalled the game and tried again #which I'm not doing
