they just don't like anime stuff

[quaint escarp]

ffxiv is a lot of weebs

[sturdy pendant]

Ok yeah the Dark Alliance was the horrible one.

[quaint escarp]

also a lot of roleplaying

[sturdy pendant]

But I only really like BG1 and 2.

[dry dirge]

i was into ff14 mostly because i wanted to play as a dragoon

FF dragoons are badass

[sturdy pendant]

I did like Icewind Dale a lot too, just didn't play it enough, I don't even remember what happened. Other stuff, other games, life.

[quaint escarp]

play monster hunter

[sturdy pendant]

I loved the idea of FF games but I could not stand to play them. I grew up with Zelda's, I am a hack and slash kinda girl, and the drop down menu fighting kills my erection.

[quaint escarp]

i want to get back into mhw

i bought the game

[dry dirge]

the newer ones (notably 15) are action based

[sturdy pendant]

Yeah, I actually have it!

just haven't played it yet :D

[dry dirge]

i do, when i can

[dry copper]

Never played ff14. Don't see that changing. I stopped liking turn based battle systems after ff7

[sturdy pendant]

It was just recently someone here recommend it for me. I've still to install it.

Is monster hunter better than Dauntless? Cause Dauntless was recommended as a free monster Hunter but it was soooo booring with everything just being repetitive.

[dry dirge]

i've never played dauntless, but both MHR and MHW are amazing

[sturdy pendant]

It looked so cool and then you're running the same kind of mission over and over again.

[quaint escarp]

new world was fun

[dry dirge]

MHW had quite a lot of repetitiveness

haven't played enough of MHR

[quaint escarp]

i think most mmos have repetitiveness

[sturdy pendant]

I guess, but this was too much.

[quaint escarp]

i also have a guild wars 2 account locked up

[dry dirge]

yeah but i distinctly remember going after the anjanath like 30 times

[quaint escarp]

in order for me to stay in a mmorpg i have to play it with friends or it gets boring quickly

anyone play rust?

[dry copper]

Confirmed. Nobody plays Rust

[sturdy pendant]

I don't play Rust and I'm a nobody so you are incorrect.

@quaint escarp Been clearing up some old overworld bosses and killing the Deathbird in Stormhill with one bonk was funny

[quaint escarp]

bonk builds are fun

Wish there was a way to hide the HUD at sites of grace

for screenies

[quaint escarp]

think theres a hide ui button isnt there

or in settings

[snow zenith]

yea but it doesn't hide in menus

[quaint escarp]

use the sit emote

[snow zenith]

eh

not the same

[quaint escarp]

it looks exactly like the grace sit

The compass anyways

[snow zenith]

nevermind i forget it removes the left stuff when you talk to melina

if you hide hud, then it's possible

[dry dirge]

nah

[quaint escarp]

wow

[dry dirge]

i'm in a call with my friends rn

[quaint escarp]

ah

[dry dirge]

man i wish my teammates in ow2 ACTUALLY KNEW HOW TO PLAY

[austere lance]

Sounds about right, LMAO

[quaint escarp]

just left a match bc of this

[dry dirge]

my team when we have the point:

there is a MASSIVE "DEFEND" ON THEIR HUD

DEFEND THE POINT

[dry copper]

Welcome to playing video games with try hard children

Then you have douche bag mcDouchy sitting back at spawn throwing knives for youtube clips

[sturdy pendant]

I don't play OW on the weekends much, too many weekend-daddies and kids playing the game.

[dry copper]

I don't even know if OW2 can do that

In Battlefield it was annoying to see people wasting a slot on the team being a solo star

I use the word star loosely

Interchangable with loser

[sturdy pendant]

Usually when you have the point, the best place to defend it is not on the point.

[dry dirge]

they get the point then they just forget they have it and act like they're attacking

[sturdy pendant]

Tbh, that's usually the best way to win team fights. Team fight is all that matters and best way to win it is to have best positions and sitting on point hardly is it.

[dry dirge]

what they did quite clearly did not work

[sturdy pendant]

Everyone that stays behind on the point or on the payload as other head off to a fight, force the fight to be outnumbered and you have to have super carrys on your team for you to win.

On lower ranks that might work because usually one or two people can be good enough to carry a match if they don't belong in bronze. But the more balanced the teams are, the more important teamwork is.

[sturdy pendant]

Was there a reason you did not join them and leave them out of an important aid? Game now being 5v5 it's even more important to fight together.

[dry copper]

Sometimes the strategy when you have an overly aggressive pusher is to respond by pushing equally hard so that you win the most number of points or points taken in a match

[dry dirge]

i did join them

reluctantly

Ya know coolio died this month?

Like last week I think

Another 90s song that blew a hole into records (as far as I'm concerned a huge hit)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EqQuihD0hoI

Here's a 70s hit that to this day remains absolutely iconic

https://youtu.be/I_2D8Eo15wE

It was really cool. They brought Christina Ricci back to help this actress nail the role of Wednesday

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q73UhUTs6y0

[fleet moat]

i'm excited about this!!!!

[dry copper]

Nice subtle nod to the rolling stones in their vision of "Paint it, Black"

[snow zenith]

Hope it's a good show/movie/whatever it is but goddamn we really can't produce anything original these days, it's all regurgitation of old stories

[fleet moat]

love that song so much. Westworld's cover for it is one of my faves

[dry copper]

Lets be honest. Even if we renamed every character in the story and pretended it wasn't, they'd call it a rip off

There's almost no way of avoiding the scorn and judgement of people pretending X is Y in pink panties

Just making a dupe that rolls off the story is a safe flip for profits

I'm most excited by one character only

[snow zenith]

At least it looks to be more of the setting than the story.

[dry copper]

See who is playing Uncle Fester?

The man has a peabody...the pulitzer of acting

In terms of acting achievements I don't think there's a harder award to get.

I could gush about it, but I'll let them instead

https://peabodyawards.com/award-profile/portlandia/

[snow zenith]

I don't put any stock on the Oscars nowadays so yea pulitzer of acting seems right

[dry copper]

The oscars are disgusting. They just put peers from industries in a box and say here ya go judge away

Which of course opens them up to being bought and full on racist

Especially in industries dominated by specific demographics

Imagine being judged for an award by a judge because they got the award once before who was judged by someone who got the award before ad nauseum. Oscars and Academy Awards are a joke.

[orchid fox]

@lapis perch @winter yew https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MKphNR91gx8 this was what i got up to highest last tier. i play mostly pve games or survival games but any difficulty that make me wipe team and reset fight completely make my blood boil on myself cuz low self esteem

[lapis perch]

i don't know about ffxiv. is it a coop game?

[orchid fox]

been same since i was a kid

co op raiding game with like 6 difficulty on content

normal, hard, extreme, savage, unreal, ultimatew

savage is "high" end on raids

too much shit goin on

[lapis perch]

why not lower the difficulty?

[orchid fox]

cuz normal hard and extreme can be beaten by a casual its not hard lol

[winter yew]

@orchid fox yea outriders man after the world slayer update I had such a broken eruption bud but than it got nerfed

[orchid fox]

1 duffilty change is make or break in the game lol

[lapis perch]

so u want a challenge but the consequences of failing makes you rage?

[orchid fox]

yes basically

on myself

[lapis perch]

are there any consequences to failure besides resetting the fight?

[orchid fox]

not much outside bit durability loss. u reset right back in arena

[lapis perch]

also do your teammates communicate and blame each other on fails?

[orchid fox]

not rreally but one failed mechanic can wipe team

[winter yew]

@orchid fox I can't relate bro. I'm verynmuch a it is what it is kinda guy

[orchid fox]

intentional or not

its kinda a battle dance

cuz the spells is queued the same way every time

[lapis perch]

sorry if this sounds offensive, but how old are you?

[orchid fox]

22. dou adhd/aspergers

no offense taken

[lapis perch]

u got a job or anything?

[orchid fox]

kinda yes ish

but still game a lot

[lapis perch]

explain pls

is it part time?

[orchid fox]

its something in sweden called law of special needs work. im in internship

[lapis perch]

i see

regarding the adhd, did u get it treated?

[orchid fox]

i just hate failure intentional or not

more or less yes several ways, meds, phsycology help etc etc

[lapis perch]

hm

i know just a few words of advice wont help

[orchid fox]

i just have no patience for failure never had lol

[lapis perch]

maybe go to a psychiatrist. or whatever the english word is for the type that specializes in medicine.

[winter yew]

@orchid fox what's the worse that could happen if you failed in a video game like what real life affect will it have outside of personal emotional reactions?

[orchid fox]

oh nothing at all just still get angry cuz been emotionally invested in games for the matter of like 13 years lol

nothing would happen lol

[lapis perch]

so no raging, breaking stuff, etc?

also how long would that anger last

[orchid fox]

oh nothing i would just get pissed at myself mentally

[winter yew]

@orchid fox I think that's the problem, you should never really be emotionally invested in things that are just made for simple entertainment..

Maybe perhaps you use videogames as away to cope with things and this place alot of emotional burden on the results you get in the games

[orchid fox]

pretty much

kinda both intentional and not

[winter yew]

@orchid fox like dude I accidently deleted my highest leveled character in Elden Ring.. was upset yes for like 5 seconds than said F it I'm playing this game with my butt naked guy

[orchid fox]

like yes i know my behavior and mentality is not "the right mindset" but this is how ive been the last 13 years 🤷‍♂️

[lapis perch]

@orchid fox the human brain has limited fucks to give. once your fucks are depleted, the mental state becomes worse and worse.
the best way i can see this being resolved is having something more important to do. like a job, another hobby, etc.

[orchid fox]

yep

should prob start gymming

[lapis perch]

try to practice an art that you are interested in. like painting, writing, photography, etc

also remember to not pursue happiness itself, like "once i beat this game i'll be happy." "once i do x i'll be happy." etc.

[orchid fox]

thanks for the advise. i have some books i should prob start

[lapis perch]

because that's never how it works. humans always find a problem to be anxious about

[lapis perch]

hope you feel better soon ❤️

[orchid fox]

human mind is complex indeed

[winter yew]

@orchid fox failure is a natural step in life, and videogames are some of the best places to learn from failure , dude my dodging game in den ring didn't get good from not dying alot from Margot... F that dude

[austere lance]

I have a lvl 6 Spicy Black Ant Sword and a lvl 6 Fresh Stinger Spear

changing a mindset ive had for a long lifespan is gonna be hard but mate says i have to try be concious about it >.> @winter yew @lapis perch

@unique sable @fickle frigate Here it is!

[fickle frigate]

yas

[unique sable]

I'll check it out soon! I used to play it when i was a young boy together with my sister destroying things for fun :D

[upper summit]

It was released on August 30th

[upper summit]

My parents would have never allowed me to play this haha. They were very strict.

[unique sable]

Dang

[upper summit]

Yep. They were very strict about tv and video game violence.

[fickle frigate]

added to wishlist for l8er

[upper summit]

I wasn't even allowed to watch stuff like El Tigre. When I did my father threatened to send me to a boarding school 🥲

[fickle frigate]

its like mid tier violence

trying to recall if there was anythig dark in the 1st one

[upper summit]

It's not even graphic

[upper summit]

Not really. Except the brain extraction part maybe, but again, no blood.

[fickle frigate]

did he swear once?

its not really considered dark but thats about as mature as i can remember it being

[upper summit]

He says "What the hell" a few times.

[fickle frigate]

that was just funny tho

oh the mind one maybe

i was thinking of the anal probe

[upper summit]

In the remake they removed a line from Crypto from the Miss Rockwell mission. Miss Rockwell is the lady you have to abduct.

[upper summit]

Yeah you see some 💩 if you shoot people, but not very detailed.

[fickle frigate]

yea almost the 1st mission

[upper summit]

The Crypto line they removed:
So vocal, so responsive, this is gonna be good.

[fickle frigate]

ooh yea the red disintegration gun is maybe the darkest it got

[upper summit]

It's still not Mortal Kombat type violence.

[fickle frigate]

no no where near lol

these vibes

[upper summit]

Yes, I wouldn't let my child play Mortal Kombat, but they can watch shows such as Pokémon and El Tigre with some mild violence.

[fickle frigate]

tbf this was almost kinda scary tbh xD

incase anyone was curious

[upper summit]

Yes. Pretty sure this was one of DAH's inspirations. DAH is heavily influenced by 50's sci-fi alien invasion/horror movies.

[fickle frigate]

i need to rewatch this as a adult that cast looks impressive

[upper summit]

im guessing i didnt wanna see that

[thorn dawn]

was my face reveal, sry

lol

[sturdy pendant]

Wait, why was the conversation deleted but my messages left?

[dry copper]

So I deleted my char yesterday in ESO, after realizing I'd accidentally associated the wrong alliance and become AD....

[quaint escarp]

cant u change later on

[dry copper]

I log back in and someone I'd helped earlier in the day immediately messages me..."wanna go do x"...Me...not sure wtf x is...I can't even rmember the name now....

No you can't change alliances.

[quaint escarp]

token?

[dry copper]

It's tied to the main story

[quaint escarp]

thought there was a alliance change token

[dry copper]

You can be any race any alliance but for the purpose of PVP can't change it

The any race alliance just makes it so you can create a character in any alliance. Never heard of a change alliance one.

In any case, I start this fresh new char ready to start over...at level 3, getting my shit together I get this message inviting me to some dungeon run

[quaint escarp]

literally the first google result gave me that

https://www.elderscrollsonline.com/en-gb/crownstore/item/8922

thought u played this a lot lol

[dry copper]

No. I don't. Before the last two days I'd not played in almost a year

Turns out the person was someone I helped the day before yesterday get some gear in High Isle. Ran me through some dungeon in craglorn over and over, power leveled from 3-32 in one evening

Checked. I have no alliance change tokens.

Level wise, I'm significantly higher level now than I was even before starting over.

storylines and their progress, im pretty sure

[dry copper]

Did you know Deadpool knew about the MCU and what was happening with the snap etc before he ever was proposed to join it?

Deadpool actually refers to Thanos specifically in Deadpool 2.

...and that's not all

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FPziLv4Alnk

They gave a special gift to any paying attention that bought the deadpool movie after seeing the theatrical cut.

The movie version distributed has a different closing cast outtro

Mind you the only significant difference is the text on screen where they're commenting

In fact, the commentary in the movie release refers to the theatrical release as if they're arguing

"Written by: The real villains" -Theater
"Writers: I blame the writers. "Real heroes" my ass. - Home Release

"You'd think the studio would throw us a bone. You can't dust off one of the famous xmen?" -Theater
"You'd think the studio would throw us a bone. One that didn't end up in my mouth." - Home

[glass plinth]

Well looks like ow2 has its queue all fixed

[austere lance]

More or less, now if only it would quit signing me out for no reason mid-match 😆

[sturdy pendant]

Damn, I almost feel bad for just wanting to play ow2 all the frikking time but it seems most of my friends are super addicted to it :D

I guess that's what the soft reset did

People playing in masters ranking in plat, so all they got to look for is a lot of grinding

[austere lance]

It do be addictive, lol. I'm new to OW and it's pretty fun

Now all I play is Grounded and it 😆

[sturdy pendant]

Yeah I am a fan of most of the changes, specially the ping! People don't freak out by my vagina anymore cause I don't have to make callouts on voice.

[glass plinth]

I havent had any sign out issues

No bugs

[austere lance]

At least til mid-October. Then I'll be playing Scorn and A Plague Tale: Requiem

[glass plinth]

As for the chan ges, I actually quite like it!

I dont mind having one tank at all

Kiriko is definitely fun

[sturdy pendant]

I don't like that, I play in low ranks and people don't seem to know how to play with one tank, I end up getting a tank that mostly presses S.

But in openQ... oh damn.. 2-3 tanks yes please.

[glass plinth]

I guess maybe I am lucky

[sturdy pendant]

It's so fun cause it's so broken right now :D

[glass plinth]

I mite get a gutsy rein now and again

I tend to tank or heal

Im a sigma mostly

[sturdy pendant]

I main support role

[glass plinth]

As for heals, Lucio, moira, baptiste for me

[sturdy pendant]

I used to be a Mercy main but in OW2 she's pretty useless, I mostly play Ana or Lucio now

[dry dirge]

i think i'm a roadhog main

i love hooking people

also give doomfist his uppercut back

[sturdy pendant]

As long as you also kill them 😅

[dry dirge]

#justicefordoomfist

[sturdy pendant]

It's really tricky to play roadhog in a non-selfish way where you actually help your team by tanking

[austere lance]

Moira gang, lol. I do shit like this and keep my team alive 😌

[dry dirge]

thats impressive

[sturdy pendant]

Most hogs play like they are DPS and 80% of their games are them complaining about having gold medals while losing.

[dry dirge]

i suck at moira though

i don't really play much ranked, yet

[sturdy pendant]

I only play ranked. I like the full matches.

QP's half games aren't that fun. But I play QP if friends want.

[austere lance]

Moira is pretty simple, if you're good at judging ricochet 😆

And which ball to use when

[glass plinth]

Yup

[sturdy pendant]

I'm not aggressive enough to make Moira useful.

I'm an enabler.

Which is why I love Ana.

[glass plinth]

Hrmm kill streak with her, 54 for me

[sturdy pendant]

54 a streak? Whoa

[dry dirge]

my biggest kills in one game was like, 21 or smth

and that wasn't a streak

i am still very bad

[austere lance]

I went on a 21 streak as Torbjorn playing the best defense I've ever done then got disconnected

[glass plinth]

I was having a good day

[sturdy pendant]

Everyone is bad before they get good

[dry dirge]

my favorite support is by far zenyatta

[sturdy pendant]

I had the weirdest DC now in OW2. Game Ended at 3-3 and was about to go on to the third round when my screen went black and game froze. I had trouble even getting to close it. When I got back, I had no sanctions (which you always get if you leave ranked match) and my replay showed the game as a loss 0-4.

Supposedly we played so bad we broke the game...

Somehow enemy got 4 points while we got none xD

And of course it would not let me see the replay, just got a "cannot show an undecided match"

[glass plinth]

I think my win rate with moira is 54-64 percent

[dry dirge]

i'm REALLY excited for the pve

[glass plinth]

but, I also had a period of severe depression where I was playing very badly

So the stats are very skewed

[daring spear]

I should try playing

[glass plinth]

Unfortunatly my psychological state has such a big impact on play

[daring spear]

That makes sense, really. Happens to me too

[glass plinth]

Thats my moira

[dry dirge]

i wish pharah could do rocket jumps

not like the itty bitty baby rocket jumps you can kinda sorta do

but real soldier tf2 rocket jumping

(i mean its a different engine but ehhh)

[sturdy pendant]

I kinda have this too, I play a lot even in ranked in a way that I just don't care. I know it affects my playstyle a lot too, no matter how "seriously" I play then too

[glass plinth]

For me, my motor reflexes crash under stress, due to AS

About the only way I could play then was drunk, with a shot of espresso

[dry dirge]

AS?

[glass plinth]

Which was very unfortunate

A auto immune disorder

[dry dirge]

ah

[glass plinth]

Affects brains, nerves, muscle

Lol I keep getting placed in losing matches and winning

this is fun!

[potent plover]

I need to try OW2

Its been a long time since I played OW

[austere lance]

i still havent made it inside the city walls 😧

[cerulean kite]

MICHAEL ZAKI PLEASE

although i hear there are giant sewer sharks in the BB Old Hunter's DLC who are the ultimate a-holes

[idle saffron]

Doesn't look like NMS, what gives?

[cerulean kite]

The "I can warp again" update

[dry copper]

New tesla

[idle saffron]

Sweet

[dry copper]

That would be hilarious though. "The Toyota Tesla, comes with a free Steam Deck to give you that Tesla experience."

[sturdy pendant]

Yay back in gold!

I've been skipping a couple tiers now, went from silver 4 to silver 2 and now silver 2 to gold 5

[cerulean kite]

what game?

[quaint escarp]

ow the game 2

[sturdy pendant]

Yes that game

Sorry, I am the center of the universe, everyone should know what I'm doing

(Sorry for leaving out the context)

[cerulean kite]

oh i heard thats a dead game

[sturdy pendant]

It just got released

And it's sooooo much better

[cerulean kite]

DOA

my homies who play OW are basically not too interested because it took them way too long to release a rather middling sequel

[quaint escarp]

its good but i feel like tanks are a bit overpowered

[cerulean kite]

ive never played the game

[quaint escarp]

u should

i think u will like it if u like apex

[cerulean kite]

id have to like, turn on my PC and... install it?

[sturdy pendant]

Yeah, my friends were all the same and now they are giddy about the game :D

[cerulean kite]

create an account for some site?

if it would require me to install another launcher then...

[quaint escarp]

bnet

[cerulean kite]

theres prob a 0% chance i play if i need a new launcher

[quaint escarp]

battlenet and a phone number

[sturdy pendant]

no

no more phone number

they revoked that

[cerulean kite]

every game should be like Valorant

[coarse swift]

Overwatch has a neat story n characters n all but it's still a pvp hero shooter. Otherwise I'd enjoy it more

[cerulean kite]

you install game, you launch game. no launcher software

[quaint escarp]

they revoked it for non ow1 players i thought

[cerulean kite]

just game

[sturdy pendant]

for everyone

because it caused huge issues for ow1 players

[cerulean kite]

my least favorite is Trackmania because i have to have like, some launcher but then also an ubisoft launcher

its like two launchers to get into the game

[quaint escarp]

ew uplay

[sturdy pendant]

i have a few games like that

i hate uplay

[cerulean kite]

i dont play much trackmania though so its fine

the only launcher i really ever use is whatever the one is for pApex

origin?

[quaint escarp]

why dont u install it on steam

[cerulean kite]

it wasnt on steam when i first installed

and i have no issues with origin really

[quaint escarp]

valorant has a launcher it just hides itself

riot launcher

[cerulean kite]

yeah i know, but everything should be like that

[quaint escarp]

dont most do that if u click on the game app

Overwatch 2 is fuckin with gpus?

[sturdy pendant]

i wish there was this magical solution like updating your drivers for these issues

[quaint escarp]

comments are saying that messing with resolution scaling in ow2 is creating issues

[sturdy pendant]

creating issues in their case being the game supposedly breaking the gpu

at least that's how far I read

[thorn dawn]

Says they replaced their hdmi cable.

At least they figured that out before they bought a new screen like I did

[coarse swift]

Me who's not dealing with any of that mess because I don't play

Now I'll get home and have something break since I said that

[coarse swift]

Why is Demons Souls so easy

Did I nerf the game because I went magic build

[thorn dawn]

Magic builds in general are OP - regardless of game

Magic > archer > melee

[coarse swift]

I don't recall the other souls games having this, but Demons Souls has the pyro spell that's basically just a rifle

Constant fire shots

Low cost

[thorn dawn]

People think stealth archer is broken in Skyrim, but a mage with 100 destruction and a sack of magicka potions doesn't even need to hide

See also: netrunner cyberpunk build

[charred badge]

Stealth archer doesn't need to hide either. Just crouch in front of things.

[thorn dawn]

So, hiding?

[coarse swift]

Get so stealthy that you can just crouch in front of someone and they lose sight of you

Knights done that before, mightve been Nightingale stuff, not sure

But she was in combat and cornered by one guy, crouched, and while the guy was staring right at her he's like "Whered you go?" and took off

[thorn dawn]

You can't hide in plain sight, but if you break their line of sight then crouch, it's as good as

[charred badge]

Uh, I've seen videos. It's dumb.

[thorn dawn]

Game is buggy af so line of sight can be broken by buckets, tables, chairs, uneven floor

[coarse swift]

Doesn't stealth when high enough briefly turn you invis and break line of sight when you crouch?

[charred badge]

Mage also doesn't get insane damage mults

There's a reason stealth archer is so damned tempting for gamers
People have a hard time ignoring a build that is basically a win button

[thorn dawn]

Only if the foe is far away

[sturdy pendant]

I don't usually have the patience to build up magic characters, I feel I just die to everything for a long time.

I'm the hack and slash charge in like a tornado kind of player.

Makes it really fun to play Far Cry with my SO cause I go in guns blazing and he sits in a nice spot sniping

[quaint escarp]

i like shooting things from far away

so words like stealth, crit, range are my thing

[charred badge]

I don't know whether it's a basic perk, or added by the perk rework mod i installed, but I have a perk that doubles the effectiveness of armor spells when not wearing armor, which is giving my level 6 mage 120 armor

[quaint escarp]

dexterity stats or intelligence stats are usually my go to for games

if i can go as a magic archer assassin in every game i would

[coarse swift]

I used to be a greatsword-only type of player. Always thought big sword was hot stuff

[quaint escarp]

if its a pvp game i go support tho

Dual-wielding for me!

[quaint escarp]

https://tenor.com/view/nightmare-nightmare-soulcalibur-soulcalibur-soulcalibur-vi-sc6-gif-21449279

[coarse swift]

To that same end, I heavy rolled my way thru Dark Souls 1

Elite Knight with lightning Zweihander

[quaint escarp]

dual wield greatswords

[coarse swift]

But I also had no grasp on Souls games finer mechanics back then

Couldn't parry for shit

Now I see blue magic
I use blue magic

[coarse swift]

I run around with catalyst in one hand and sword in the other

[sturdy pendant]

That is pretty

[coarse swift]

That count as dual wielding?

[quaint escarp]

this is my fav thing to do in elden ring

[coarse swift]

I really need to play Elden Ring

[quaint escarp]

i find daggers more like an secondary set of weapons for assassins

[coarse swift]

How's the miracles game look in Elden Ring?

[quaint escarp]

im not a souls nerd u have to explain that to me

[coarse swift]

Demons Souls doesn't even having lightning

Miracles are faith magic

So if you happen to have something like lightning spears in Elden Ring, that's probably the miracles equivalent

[quaint escarp]

oh faith magic, theres rock, lightning,

yeah theres spears and storms

u can live out ur paladin build

[coarse swift]

I was just curious. I don't do miracle builds

The Dark Souls games have hexes tho, does Elden Ring?

Hexes are dark magic

Characterized by some cool as shit black energy

[tame cairn]

dual wielding greatswords is the best

[coarse swift]

https://tenor.com/view/manus-dark-souls-dark-magic-gif-23855325

[tame cairn]

imagine if there was hexes in ER

it would look real good

visually

[quaint escarp]

like curses?

closest thing is madness

[tame cairn]

deathblight is annoying

[quaint escarp]

wait there is hex like

hate the wormface guys

It's all irrelevant tho what magic they brought to Elden Ring because I'm still gonna spam the Soul Stream equivalent once I get it

[quaint escarp]

does that launch souls at enemies

oh man, my heart

[dry dirge]

playing ow2, listening to a tf2 video

the crossover episode

[sleek cloud]

need a TF3 to happen!

[dry dirge]

uh, no

[tame cairn]

you should know valve and their 3’s

😔

[quaint escarp]

its tf2's 15th anniversary

[sleek cloud]

true

[tame cairn]

sad times, as much as that would be pretty cool

[sleek cloud]

it beats OW imo, had over 1k hours in TF2

and there's a role for everyone in that game

[tame cairn]

when i had a laptop years ago that was basically all i played along with roblox.

[sleek cloud]

i was instantly hooked the moment i started playing it

[tame cairn]

i played spy

and scout

[sleek cloud]

spy was sooo much fun

especially if you managed to chain some backstabs

my main though was sniper

[tame cairn]

dang i wish i still had that shitty laptop

it was bad but at least it ran tf2

[sleek cloud]

i think i first played it on a shitty laptop too thinking about it

managed to squeeze about 20fps out of it playing Crysis 😄

[thorn dawn]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_1s0i9KDkk

new BD?

fingers crossed!

or maybe a remaster

[cerulean kite]

hawkman

sounds so good

and looks really good

[dry dirge]

i love both TF2 and OW2, probably equally

only got 118 hrs in tf2

but i meant that that i don't want a tf3, tf2 is perfect as can be

well that's a lie

but i'd rather they update TF2 then make a new game

not like either of those is going to happen

[sleek cloud]

Tf2 updated, new graphics, source engine 2, new characters, new and improved maps. It needs more of a complete remaster

[dry dirge]

the graphical style is perfect as it is
I don't know enough about source engine 2
new characters would be awful
but new maps would be good, considering a lot of the ones we have are garbage

so imo it doesn't need a remaster

[dry dirge]

is that VR chat?
jk, ik its skyrim

[tame cairn]

wtf…

lol

[quaint escarp]

its cyberpunk in skyrim

[dry dirge]

wdym, thats just the inn in whiterun

[coarse swift]

Yea artstyle doesn't need to change. You may as well just make Team Fortress 3 at that point, but thats not a very Valve thing to do
Just needs a big rebalance, incentive to return (idk), and put MvM on the same focus as pvp.

iirc, didn't you have to pay for higher tiers of MvM before?

Thought that was the stupidest shit ever, paying for pve in a pvp game

[sleek cloud]

No idea, been years since i I've played it last

[dry dirge]

you have to pay to "Mann up"

that's the only way to get rewards from it, but the regular gamemode is free

[sleek cloud]

Ohh ye that stuff, was free last time I played it

[dry dirge]

you can do "Bootcamp", which is free

[quaint escarp]

i found painkillers

[coarse swift]

Nah. I don't mind the lootbox garbage or cosmetics, but locking rewards for pve behind a pay wall is bull.

[sleek cloud]

Sounds like a EA thing to do

[austere lance]

You'll get TF3 with 10 new quirky characters and a battle pass

[coarse swift]

🚮

[dry dirge]

frankly all i would really want is new weapons, whether they are balanced or not

[coarse swift]

Next you'll tell me they're all Fortnite-like characters

[dry dirge]

i primarily play on community servers

[austere lance]

Knockoff Overwatch characters 😌

[sleek cloud]

Yeah I'd always play on community servers

[coarse swift]

We already have that, Valorant

[dry dirge]

yeah, more characters would make it too similar to other hero shooters

[sleek cloud]

Best way if you find a good server

[dry dirge]

i mostly mean wacky custom gamemodes

played a lot of surf

...combat surf that is

[sleek cloud]

Ye surfing was great in cs, never tried it in tf2

[dry dirge]

anyways, i'm off to play some more cp2077
hopefully nobody explodes

CoD scared of trolls gon need more than phone numbers

Additionally, VOIP and prepaid numbers won't work.

Surprised they aren't going that extra mile and saying "YOU ALSO NEED TO HAVE AN ACCOUNT WITH VERIZON"

I mean, if you're gunna shit in the punch bowl, might as well make it a floater.

Overwatch 2 requires a valid phone number? Was that a rule before the game was lagged for three days?

[sleek cloud]

really? why the f does it need a phone number

[thorn dawn]

So Wyatt Cheng can make sure you have phones for the next Diabolo

[dry copper]

Mobilo

[austere lance]

It's part of their anti-cheat and a way to stop people from smurfing, apparently

[torpid lynx]

I thought they removed that requirement

[quaint escarp]

they did

[sleek cloud]

so you don't have to put a number in now ?

[austere lance]

You don't if you already have a Battlenet account or whatever, but new players need it

accounts that were not connected to Battle.net as well as new accounts will still have to meet SMS Protect requirements, which helps to ensure we’re protecting our community against cheating

[sleek cloud]

ah ok cool

haven't logged into my blizzard account for a couple of years or so

You know what would make a good cover. Slowcore safety dance

With a muted Tron like sound

Even this version is too fast. Slowing it down changes its message from care free to dark and foreboding

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KaQwSswaYjU

A cover of Hans Zimmer's Time, I was listening to this and my first thought was...."no". There's something special in the sounds that they don't make in the song Time. Flooding the space with sound robs you of the most important experience in this song and that's the perception of "Time".

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1gG2hWVx9fs

Here's the original

The Orville>The Enterprise

[narrow dragon]

Orville = Enterprise.

[austere lance]

The Enterprise has those giant dumb thrusters that are very obvious weak points, the Orville doesn't

[narrow dragon]

look at the back of orville.

it has weak points!

[thorn dawn]

Discussing weak points on ships designed like the enterprise or the orville is pointless - they're not designed as combat vessels, or even with physical defenses. Once the shields are down, they'll start taking critical damage.

Ship-to-ship weapons are so destructive in the star trek and orville universes that unless it's a ship that's designed for combat (e.g. the defiant, which was literally wrapped in a crispy shell of ablative armour) that you're better beefing up the shields/offensive capabilities

The second battle of Chin'toka is a great example of that - the breen took out the shields of every ship they could, and the cardassians were one-shotting gaping holes through the saucers

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ECfOA6BBsjw

You see the same design philosophy with current military ships/aircraft

I could sink an aircraft carrier with the contents of my kitchen cupboards

Take down an F-16 with a mercury thermometer

Keeping things away from them is what keeps them floating/flying

Note for my FBI agent: I have no plans to do any of those things

[narrow dragon]

so... i can devastate entire america with a fork?

Walking around 2077 feels almost exactly like wandering around a city in star citizen, except with more to do.
Some combination of controls, art style, and bad animations

Weirds me out to provoke an open air firefight without authorities complicating things

And the witcher's opinion on property has bled over, too

[merry bough]

I finished playing the Ace Attorney Trilogy recently and now I am almost certain that perjury does not exist in that universe, nor the concept of adjourning a court.

I haven't seen the newer games

Nor juries

Nor separation of duties

All I know is that Phoenix becomes homeless

Also Dahlia gets hanged as a sentence

Because of course

This takes place in

"America"

For the American release of the game at least

[charred badge]

In the localization, I think

Yeah

[merry bough]

Ah yes, the American architecture that is ancient Japanese shrines.

[merry bough]

"Court is adjourned" is basically a meaningless sentence in that universe. Will it truly be adjourned? Or will there be some random guy in the crowed just jump from the observers place (I don't remember what it's called) and just say "Ackchually I was there at the night of the crime"

[charred badge]

Or wright throws a random news clipping he pocketed while walking around the crime scene

[merry bough]

Also Franziska literally commits assault in the court room multiple times.

[merry bough]

In the anime that's literally what happens, word for word during the incident where Miles is accused of murder.

And literally every single case is a murder case throughout the entire trilogy except one. And even then, it doesn't last long.

Don't get me wrong, I love the series. It's just so damn funny on how inaccurate it is.

I don't even need to know much about law to know this is fuckin' wacky.

And on my last note

Gadot should be dead and not just because of the poison

But also from a heart attack from caffeine overdose

[charred badge]

Yeah, IIRC the framing narrative is that a massive crime wave forced a reformation of the legal system to favor speed and efficiency.
Basically low-key anime judge dread

welcome to detroit michigan

It's stupid in the ESO cash store. You can buy 1500 crowns for $18 CAD, or you can buy 1500 crowns+xp scroll+pet for $12 CAD

[charred badge]

Is that second one the newbie pack?

Only one per account if so

[dreamy zinc]

Or you don't buy

[charred badge]

I opened combat by throwing a frag grenade at the feet of some gang members. In the middle of the day. On a busy street. Nobody cared, except the braindead sidewalk NPCs who evaporated.

It's mario with a first person camera

The world that Mario inhabited in his early years is different from ours in many ways, but foremost among them is that it is 2-dimensional. This means that Mario only sees in 1 dimension. When you, the player, see a goomba coming from a whole screen away, and can carefully track its movement, Mario sees only a brown line, terrifyingly wobbling towards him.

[dry dirge]

the in universe explanation is that the citizens of night city are so accustomed to violence they just don't care

but CDPR probably just messed up

[thorn dawn]

they need to get this guy back

i only played a lil of deathloop, and i liked it
idk about riftbreaker

[dry dirge]

oh man, may they rest in piece

[dry copper]

I spent yesterday trying out some build ideas I saw about NB in ESO...One that looked cool on paper was a stamblade that uses bow and swaps to sword and board. I thought...novel idea. Maybe can tank finally and do decent damage

NOPE

You can survive with it, but you gotta have the patience of a fucking saint to kill a boss with it

[dry dirge]

NB?

[dry copper]

I did solo keel splitter though with a stam nightblade

Damn it windows I just started why are you updating now

[dry dirge]

ah, nightblade

I wish that for the sake of starfield, todd howard would stop slapping his face on it.

60% off Far Cry 6 on Indiegala

$24 Canadian

Not worth it to me

I have other games I could play so that's just twenty bucks better spent on food

Which isn't saying much since food is more important.

my body is ready

Your body is ready for Todd

that's impressive, Todd is quite taxing

is hard drive the onion but for video games?

[thorn dawn]

I can't tell if this is satire

I mean obviously the quotes are fake

but did bethesda accidentally put out an update that uninstalled the game

[quaint escarp]

its not satire

[dry copper]

I'm seeing no evidence to support the claim an update uninstalled the game.

I do see reports of people cancelling an update uninstalling their game.

[quaint escarp]

its satire

hard drive is like the onion but for games lol

QoL Update Installs Skyrim

Qol update installs doom on refrigerator

I might actually add that someone actually did install doom on our refrigerator

That being said anything that has a touch screen and generally has the capacity to have an OS loaded can pretty much run Doom

Sounds horrifying

Imagine developing awareness of a universe all around you that you can not interact with

The kind of things you'd create to explain the unknown...like religion

Some of Asmongold's facial expressions give me a "Tim Minchin having a nervous breakdown" vibe

Netflix is taking a huge risk with this business direction. They've committed themselves to original programming....

Good news: DARTS results were an awesome success.

The results were THREE TIMES higher in magnitude than their minimum expected results that would indicate success

https://www.nasa.gov/press-release/nasa-confirms-dart-mission-impact-changed-asteroid-s-motion-in-space/

A change of 10 degrees in orbit would've been considered success. The change in orbit was over 30 degrees.

So earth has a defense against asteroids.

[glass plinth]

Its begs some questions though

If the math was off, then its possible our understanding of physics needs substantial revisions

as far as impact potentials

[dry copper]

The math isn't "off"

They had a minimum result considered success

It exceeded the minimum three fold.

I'd be worried if the orbit changed so much that the asteroid was no longer orbiting its parent anymore, but not beyond that

This is trending a bit on twitch. Wonder if it's solid....Bad reviews....Free to play...

Photo's a few hours old. Crafted a gun from scratch including the material refinement and manufacturing of the gun parts. It took about a day.

[coarse swift]

Wow so Valheim

I have absolutely no idea what to do in it

Tossed in, you dont know how to craft anything and are told to go kill

dafuq

[merry bough]

It's not Valheim

It's a niche post apocalypse survival game

[coarse swift]

I... wasn't talking about your game.

[merry bough]

Ah

Should've used a reply

I refuse to take responsibility

I have valheim and I already have a world

I can show you what to do but not today

One of the most crucial advice I can give is to upgrade your gear fully before you fight any boss past Eikthyr

It'll save you days of setback
