This was a great movie. I liked the 80's theme stuff going on - certainly makes it more enjoyable.

Groups Great - Solo Not so Much
on March 30, 2018

This is a Pirate game meant for playing in groups... not as solo. I played the first few days on my own, using a sloop and trying to figure things out by myself. I tend to like PvE and not PvP so much. Unfortunately, this is an open world and after spending about an hour collecting things - another sloop came up on me and took my stuff. After a few times having this happen and literally dying at what I thought would be a safe Outpost port - I decided to play in a full Galleon mode. This was a much better overall experience. Again, it's about who gets paired with you - so you can get some folks that really shouldn't be in the group and are there to troll. There are mechanisms to get rid of them. Make sure you have your mic on as well. And for Pete's sake - don't let you 8 year old play.
For PvE - Gameplay is buggy and glitchy and a bit repetitive. You jump around a lot trying to get around on the ship. You get used to it but it doesn't make it any less annoying. I hope it gets better with patch releases. The water dynamics and weather dynamics are awesome. The AI is pretty good as well.

Not much to play here?

I bought for my son to play following the purchase of a Switch. He has not played this one that much. I'm not sure why. I'm not sure if it's because his friends didn't have it, yet. I'm only giving it three stars based on the other games he's been playing and enjoying... -1 star for interest and -1 star with the assumption that it's more fun with friends.

Quickly Finished Game

So I bought this for my 9 year old to play on his new Switch. I don't know what he did - but he managed to win the game in a weekend. I decided to read up on the game after that and learned that there are different settings to make the game easier to win. However, when I talked to him about it - he said he didn't do all the easy stuff. Then he proceeded to play and win it again - this time doing it the harder way. Kids! Hah! So it's a fun game - but easy to win. This might be one to rent if your kid can play hours at a time.

Lasts about a year...

This is my third case; the first one I owned, lasted a good two years. This past one only lasted a year. The button cover for the power button is now on the side for the iPhone 6s and the rubbing from my pocket wore the top layer off exposing the button innards and breaking the waterproof seal. Overall - I've dropped the phone several times with no incidents and I've dropped the phone into the pool twice now with no damage. It would be nice if they reinforced the buttons a bit better.

Watch favorite programs in Ultra HD with this LG smart TV. Its 4K resolution provides image clarity and brilliance, and its 4K upscaler optimally enhances the quality of lower-resolution video content for a near Ultra HD viewing experience. Use the webOS 3.0 system and Magic Mobile connection to your smartphone to perform various tasks on this 50-inch LG smart TV.

Excellent TV

Got a really great deal on this TV for under $400 at the time -- and to get an LG 4K TV for that price was a no-brainer. I can't testify that the screen resolution is any better than a 1080p, due to not having a 4K source. However, my Blu-Ray and cable resolutions look great.

I think I bought someone else's problem. I decided to get a refurbished phone due to my previous phone getting damaged. The phone looks brand new. However, this phone has severe battery problems. Where my spouse's phone and my old phone of the same type will maintain a charge all day, this one barely lasts a day. I'm hoping to work out something with Best Buy under available policies, but make sure you run a good test on it when you get one. Overall - very pleased with apple products, so will recommend to a friend. I am just disappointed with this one.

Launched in 2011, this design established the trend of paper-thin TV antennas. Universally compatible with all HDTVs, the Mohu Leaf 50 offers the benefits and powerful performance of our notorious design coupled with the Jolt Switch USB in-line amplifier to reach a 60-mile range. Control TV signal amplification in real time with a simple ON/OFF switch. When it’s "on", TV signals are increased for clearer picture and sound, sometimes receiving channels beyond your antenna’s standard range. When it’s "off", amplification is bypassed while TV signals are still filtered from FM and cellular interference. When plugged into your TV’s USB port, the amplifier only draws power when the TV is on, saving energy, or use the included USB power adapter with any standard wall outlet. Perfect for suburban areas, compact living spaces, single-TV homes, dorm rooms, RVs…take this efficient antenna just about anywhere you go. Easy to set up and easy on the eyes. Multi-directional UHF and Hi-VHF elements receive TV signals from both sides, so you can show either side of the black or white reversible design or paint the Leaf antenna for a customized look. Note: The range of this antenna will vary greatly depending on the height, power, and frequency of signals coming from the TV tower, as well as the height of the antenna installation, the terrain, and obstacles between your home and the broadcast towers. Find your TV towers and channels by using our free Antenna Point app on your android or iOS device.

It would be great, but...

I refuse to lowball the ratings because I could not get this to work. I purchased this based on the rave reviews that I read across the web. I was looking for an indoor antenna as I am trying to avoid purchasing a larger outdoor antenna.
Most of the TV stations in my area are apparently VHF signals and I just couldn't get the stations 23 miles away to pick up Channels 4, 5, 7, 9, etc... wouldn't work. This antenna is designed for UHF signals. It will pick up a VHF signal.
I had it in my window, up high to get the best signal, but it wouldn't register any stations. I took it upstairs (second floor) and it also wouldn't pick up signals. I did take the antenna to a friend's house and was able to pick up one of the three stations in their area. Thus, I was able to confirm that the antenna worked.
The design is great, easy to put together. I just do not recommend it for someone with primarily VHF signal range stations.
Also, I purchased this off of Bestbuy.com with delivery to my house. I had zero issues returning it to my local Bestbuy store. Therefore, I recommend it to a friend, because it's worth trying if you're in the market for an antenna
