@TradeAsTheINT @aw_trades_ @Topstep @TopstepBroker Position sizing so important but hard art to master if undisciplined.

R1 test today 436.75 QH[1] @eccometal

[EccOMetaL @eccometal]

@synaesthesiajp @Archelly6 Okay. I’ve never heard of you but I’ve heard and bought every Hideo game.

Maybe take a chill pill and hold your stones.

You make games; maybe appreciate the trail Hideo has blazed and learn a thing or five.

Good luck.

[EccOMetaL @eccometal]

And more important everyone needs to just shut the eff up; stop complaining and pontificating everytime someone disagrees with you.

Just go be you and do the things you want to do in life. Block out the BS. It’s there to distract/separate you.

[EccOMetaL @eccometal]

No one makes their own opinions anymore. They align with a specific side (whether is politics, what gaming console they use/defend, etc).

We are flowing with inherent biases because we decided one day everything this side does I identify with and will defend no matter what.

[EccOMetaL @eccometal]

It’s like the lowest IQ form of living. No self awareness. No deep passions and stances/principles.

Just insecurity draped in a need to follow something to pretend we have ideologies and purpose. But really we just spew the garbage we’re fed from businesses, politics, con men.

[EccOMetaL @eccometal]

@MisterBolticus_ Okay, but why? What’s the context? Otherwise it sounds childish “I don’t like that actor so yuck yuck.”

Why not test things first before formulating opinion on game you haven’t even seen yet.

This more directed at general population you’re just easy example today.

[EccOMetaL @eccometal]

@Omegawyrm76 Guy doesn’t need to chase clout. He’s dripping in aura. Hideo is the man.

[EccOMetaL @eccometal]

@ChrisHarte7 Why would he want his studio to be acquired after dealing with Konami’s bullshit.

It’s business brother. If I own a business and love what I do; I’m not going to sell it to another business just to make money but lose all control of creative process and decisions.

Right move.

[EccOMetaL @eccometal]

@RinoTheBouncer I traded in my switch for ps4 just to play death stranding.

I follow Kojima. I don’t follow big businesses/consoles.

[EccOMetaL @eccometal]

@Play4Index Unfair to write a review? Wtf is wrong with people? Sheep.

[EccOMetaL @eccometal]

@siIentomen Disagree. Playing in release order keeps mystery and intrigue.

More pay off when you advance and find out the storylines you played through had an origin.

If you play chronologically you spoil most everything.

Release order first then chronologically.

[EccOMetaL @eccometal]

@PasswordSuck2 @Omegawyrm76 I thought same thing but that doesn’t explain ground zeroes… unfortunately (because I like the thought he got different guy to emphasize different character)

[EccOMetaL @eccometal]

@FreshyFive23 @BrunoAl72459175 @IGN Consoles becoming like politics. If you own one system you have to hate the other and anything they do.

I have PS5, Xbox Series X, and Switch.

Death Stranding 1+2 while not on level of Metal Gear Solid series, are both fantastic games.

Stop with the ‘identity politics….’

[EccOMetaL @eccometal]

@Moltensentra81 Both amazing games; both extremely different from the copy and paste formula every other studio uses now a days.

I think your point is invalid. Comments seem to agree.

[EccOMetaL @eccometal]

And that is why @HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN is a legend. A series that I have beaten each game multiple times over almost 30 years of playing and I just unlocked the final chapter of PW that I never knew existed, yesterday.

Unlocked more narrative/story that made whole series better. #MGS

[EccOMetaL @eccometal]

I’ve been sick as a dog so just been firing up Metal Gear Solid games last couple days.

I beat Peace Walker for only my second time and realized I never actually beat the whole game. There was an entire chapter 5 that I never unlocked until yesterday.

Made PW that much better

[EccOMetaL @eccometal]

New MGS ranking after seeing PW true end:

MGS
MGS3
MGSV
MGS2
MGSPW
MGS4

That ending scene with Big Boss is so good in PW that it elevated narrative for MGS3 and V in my opinion.

In fact, I would say Big Boss’ arc is better/more intriguing than Solid Snakes…

@botxd17_ @Avaki6 Always a pain in ass but it might be one of the first games (I played it back when it came out as a kid) that ever made me do that which was kind of amazing.

The whole key card access level concept was dope but exhausting.
