I usually do it for 75-90% of the games so this was a drastic dropoff for me
And only with the Flyers. Any other team I'm fine to sim most of the games, although I don't see the fun in building your own team if you don't let yourself play as them once in a while. With the Flyers I can't be impartial and always have to make them into a dynasty

Full sim until crucial playoff games, where intervening may occur midway through or at the start of the 3rd, depending.

f*** the LT/L2 glitch. I can deal with "glitch" slots, OP one-timers, etc., but something about the LT/L2 thing just sets me off.

I play defense competitively in 6s. Preach. It’s lame as f***. Just make a big build and spam the triggers to your heart’s delight while I can’t poke.

It’s not a shot. You just spam LT while holding down RT like a sweaty loser.
Now I know I’d make you quit out in the 2nd.

Yes.
Back in the day I played defense competitively too (just don't have the time to commit to it anymore, so just play with family). You learn how to block/deal with the glitch shots (besides that stupid LT slapshot down the boards in like...NHL 13 or 14 or something?), but the movement stuff (Triangle/Y board hugging before trying to him them automatically hugged them too, L2 glitching, etc...) just feels so cheap and un-hockey like.

Has anyone played the first Divinity : Original Sin? I just started playing it. It seems to offer a god awful ton of stuff that you can do. I already feel like my first play through will be akin to a blind man walking through a new house for the first time.
tried it..didn't much like it..but i am gonna give it another try at some point..did the same for the Witcher which i just...can not get into for some reason

I loved the Witcher 3, but it fell victim to the FPS surge of the time. I played it for a short time and then went back to COD or whatever FPS was the pushing force.
Those games run into the issue of catering to the casual, for good reason, of pick up and play. They aren’t made that way and shouldnt be.

Anyone have some expertise on TVs? Samsung vs Vizio? I had Samsung 4K HDR 55' and had burnt pixels and luckily had GeekSquad warranty. Took the Geek tech guy's recommendation to swap for the Vizio P Series P55f-1 but at times I'm left wanting my samsung back. May return for the Samsung 55' RU8000
have an older samsung, 5 yr old, and just replaced a sharp that burned out. got a 7000 4k, for the money i think samsung has the best color and picture, the sound is pretty good as well.

I loved my Samsung and wish I just said to the replacement guy give me the current model of what I had. But def thinking I'm going back to Samsung . Maybe upgrade even and get a QLED but still doing my research if worth it.
