I bought the Airpods Max 2 yesterday after noticing them in Costco at a cheaper price than the RRP.

I've always used in ear headphones (apart from a cheap Turtle Beach gaming headset) and my go to for music has been the Airpods Pro 3's.

I did a lot of research on these before my purchase, and a lot of people mentioned how comfortable they were.

After I bought them i opened them in excitement in the car and drove home wearing them. Halfway through the drive I ended up taking them off as they were clamping against my ears too hard, and the headband felt uncomfortable on my head.

Safe to say, the excitement faded pretty quickly, but they did sound really good!

When I got home I starter searching for answers to my problems, and I saw someone suggest bending the band almost horizontally and holding it for 30 seconds about 2 times.

I did this and it solved the clamping issue, but the headband felt uncomfortable still at the top of my head.

I ended up wearing them on and off for the rest of the day, and by the evening the headband felt really nice on top of the head.

They almost feel a bit too loose around the sides of my head now though after stretching the headband, and i kind of regret doing it.

I guess the moral of the story for anyone reading this and contemplating buying a pair is: don't mess around with them if they feel a bit uncombable at first. Just give yourself time to get used to them, they're actually pretty comfy like everyone said!

I'm on the mission where you need to tail El Arca del Maestro, the ship sinks a few boats and then departs, then you have to fight a handful of Spanish ships and I'm really struggling.

I've died 8 times in a row on this, and the annoying thing is you have to tail El Arca del Maestro all over again every time you die.

It's been a long time since I've rage quit a game.

The game has been relatively easy yet still fun up to this point.

Any tips on ship battles? They feel really awkward for me at the moment.
