Here's a really easy trick to get a female Salandit:

Get a male Eevee, evolve it into Sylveon (I recommend feeding it a rainbow Poke bean or two while it knows Baby-Doll Eyes) and put it at the front of the party. See, its ability Cute Charm has a hidden feature outside of battle. It boosts encounter chance for Pokemon of the opposite gender up to around 66% regardless of the gender ratio. Since your Sylveon is male, encountering a female Salandit should be stupid easy now.

Huh... I had no idea.

How neat. Thanks.

A co-worker had a snow globe on her desk with "Jack the Pumpkin King" in it. So I walked over and pointed at it and said "What's this?"

She said it's a cup of coffee.

So I said 'What's this?" again and pointed more at it.

She said it's a snow globe.

So I said "What's this?" again.

She said, "It's a Xmas decoration," in frustration. She didn't get it.

Bought a handful of OW holiday crates.

Got nearly all the good stuff. I'm super good at random digital dice rolls. Scrooge McCree, Widow mistletoe, Santa Torb, Candycane Roadhog, and so on. Only good I didn't get were Tracer, Winston, and Pharah.

Yeah, some real solid skin. Few lame ones, Mei's is basically a red version of her basic outfit. Winston's is a yeti, looks awesome, Pharah gets an iced-over look, Tracer's is a classic Santa elf, so that one's probably very subjective.

Nothing for Mercy, no.

Very cool.

Missed opportunity to not have Mercy get a Christmas Tree Angel Topper skin, though. And Yeti Winston is neat, but a Krampus skin would have been better.

I'm off to such a shit start. Earmed around 7 loot boxes. So far, a legendary and 3 pinks.

......none of them related to the Christmas stuff.

Also for some reason the game keeps ending games of Mei's snowball offense because "not enough players". Even though the game is full.

Edit: make that 4 pinks

Man, let it never be unsaid, doing any resistance training with dumbbells instead of a barbell is noticeably fucking harder. Have to work a lot more to keep the weight balanced.

@Rosa: Yeah, my first 10 or so were all duds, but then I hit a hot streak and hit 6 or so legendaries in close succession. I assume they up the drop rate, or something, because earning it natural before the 3rd would be Sisyphean.

I can't remember the last time I got a legendary skin. All I've been getting for weeks is blue balls and dupes.

They're just pathetic petty people that want something to complain and protest about so that they can tell each other that they're the ones making a difference.

Every day hundreds thousands of women worldwide are humiliated, abused phisically and mentally or straight up tortured and killed. And in many places they're still seen as inferior to men.

Instead of doing something about THAT, we have a bunch of whiny priviledged cunts who sit comfy in their homes and try to body-shame a fictional character because she looks too perfect. NO FUCKING SHIT! It's almost like she's drawn to look a certain way or something and she's not a real person...

Finally, years later, finished Pillars of Eternity. Didn't 100% it, but came pretty close as far as I can tell, exclusive quests aside.

Hm. Thinking back on it, it was pretty similar to DA:I, only with more answers and philosophy, and a way smaller budget. Need to mull it over.

Anyone have any games they didn't 100% that they will never go back to complete?

I got all the non-multiplayer achievements in 'Star Trek Legacy' (I'm sure the servers had been shut down for a long while by the time I played it) except for one. It's the achievement where all the transport ships must survive the Borg attack. Last one died at the last possible minute, but the game is set up where you can't go back to a mission once you 'completed it' which happened because it was the last ship. Took me ten hours to get to that point and I'm not going back just to play for that one scene. Ugh!

There's only one achievement in the original Dead Rising that I don't have, and will never get. Because unlocking it requires leaving the game on for 16 straight hours. And you're health constantly ticks down so you have to keep healing, meaning you can't just walk away and come back. You need to constantly check up on that damn thing.

Between the all-day investment and possibly overheating my 360, I'll never unlock 7 Day Survivor.

Oh, if we're going that far back, then I'll go with that fucking APC mission in Gears of War on Insane. I'll never get it done because the hitboxes on those goddamn bats are broken beyond all help. Doesn't help that you have to stop to fire if you're doing it alone and doing it co-op doesn't help much either, due to the aforementioned hitboxes. Easily one of, if not THE most frustrating thing I've ever experienced in my gaming history.

I loved the first Dead Rising. Younger Vol wanted to get the Zombie Genocider achievement. Younger Vol screwed up in some way I cannot recall, and didn't get it, so I had to do it all over again, properly. And that's why I never bothered with 7 Day Survivor.

But to answer the question, bullshit multiplayer achievements aside, probably Alan Wake. In order to get all the hidden pages, you have to beat the game on the highest difficulty and know where every little page is. That's never happening, as much as I enjoyed the game. Nope.

Man that game... I was pumped as hell. Then once I saw it was every Ubisoft open world game ever, I just put on a let's play and laughed at the scientific inaccuracies, because the game itself was nothing worth of beign taken seriously. Even now that I have a computer that can handle the Far Cry engine without overheating and shut down I refuse to buy it.

I usually don't bother finishing games that have extremely crazy ass achievements that requires a massive amount of grinding to do. Games like gears of war 3 quickly come to mind because of seriously 3.0. I haven't played dead rising 1 but I won't finish 2 nor 3 because of the same reason.

Won't finish tomb raider because the multiplayer is dead. Which is sad because I'd really like to do so.

Then there is halo 5.
I have almost all the achievement for this but this game makes me want to vomit so it's difficult to go back and finish.

Where to get the completionist masks you have to play every heist at every level. But if you're just one away and they bring out a new heist you gotta complete those ones too.
And again and again for eternity. :P

Right as I read this comment, a Steam notification popped up about a new Payday 2 event. Yeah, that game is hopeless if you want to get everything. Kind of like Overwatch and the holiday events, only less randomness and more busywork.

Reminds me of when I had to locate the reference number and registering the baggage and all that when I was going to Mallorca last month. Someone apparently didn't know how to script, because there were lines of codes over and in the text itself all over the paper. Naturally, this added about 40 minutes to just locating the right gate.

And these guys are earning almost twice as much per hour as their European counterpart.
