The only thing that has annoyed me is some of the puzzle deactivate when you input the wrong answer, forcing you to go to the previous one and re enter it. It serves no purpose, I already solved the previous one, I felt like it was just wasting my time. Other than that I’ve had a blast playing it.

I’m not saying you’re lesser, I don’t judge anyone who needs/wants to use pen/paper, I’m just saying the reviews gave the wrong impression (well, to me a least)

It seems like I always have pens laying around in the way, picked up off the floor, etc. UNTIL I NEED ONE. Then they were a figment of my imagination the whole time.

All the posts like this that are supposed to convince me how awesome this game is actually have the opposite effect. I was interested after the trailers, but noped the hell out as soon as I started seeing how abtruse and bizarre many of the puzzles are.

After getting platinum yesterday, I kind of wish the reviews and articles about this didn’t all focus on the “looks like you’ll need to bust out a pen and paper!” It makes it seem like there’ll be all sorts of knowledge and secrets and connections that you need to keep track of and hope that you can connect, when in…

We’re in the digital age and all that, but how does somebody not have a pen and paper anywhere in the house?

I can’t find the source again but I’ve also read that microwaves affect mostly the water molecules, but also fat and some other substance in your food as well to a lesser degree.

No. No, you cannot ‘cook’ in a microwave. You can heat in a microwave. Heating is NOT cooking. This is a creation for “home meal replacements/convenience meals”. See you at the physician.

Yeah, my bad. I meant to convey that after trying the key sequence to no effect, I resorted to popping the battery out which solved the problem. So it goes.

My wife has battery problems with every phone. Everytime I see her, the phone is plugged in. She carries a cable with her everywhere.

I’d like to see a small on-board battery (or capacitor) that stays charged (or is the last to discharge) and this would allow for the “main” battery pack to be removed and swapped out with a fresh one without the phone turning off. Maybe while the “main” battery is removed, the screen is kept off and a couple other…

Fortunately, I think manufacturers are coming back around to the swappable battery idea. There are firsts for everything, but in my near twenty years of cell phone ownership, I’ve never dropped one in water so water proofing isn’t as big a concern for me.

I understand you fully.

You know every single phone I have ever owned has a hard reset “combination” to use for that situation.

Pro battery maintenance tip: never charge phone unless 0% life, never unplug phone unless it says 100%.

They just want you to trade it in every year.

I know everyone is different. That being said, I use my phones extensively, especially lately on my Note 4 playing a game that requires a lot of farming.

The main reason they’ve ditched replaceable batteries is that the phone is now glued together and cannot therefore be opened up easily. This allows them to achieve a lighter, more compact phone, and for non-power users, this is perfect.

I agree 1,000,000%. I’ve had cellphones that had swappable batteries, and I could tell that they were dying just by use, but a spin test (where you take out the battery, place it on a flat surface, and try to spin it) showed that the batteries themselves had bulged. That meant time to buy a new battery. Saved a few…

Because different strokes for different folks? I’d consider myself on the lower end of the power user category and still managed to get 2+ years out of my OG Moto X before the battery even began to hint at doing less than what it used to. Now I’ve got the new one and between the size and Turbocharge, battery life’s…
