They sourced their pastries from some other caribbean (idr if they were trini or Jamaican, maybe guayanese??) bakery.

[mystic ether]

I love hot pot.

[sterile stone]

Yeah I feel you, got a Japanese spot not too far from me and my guilty pleasure is getting the chicken katsu curry box.

But I gotta buy in to it for access on average and hot pot joints are wildly expensive here.

theres a combo kbbq hot pot place where I live its pretty good

Oh also @long oasis hāngi is a thing, you take your mutton and potatoes and whatnot and just bury it in a hole with hot coals and rocks for like 12 hours, it tastes like dirt and charcoal as you might expect

[mystic ether]

Haven't tried Japanese curry. Grew up on caribbean styles. Heard it's not bad.

[long oasis]

valid cooking technique

[sterile stone]

Lotta lotta ginger I will say

It could do with some wrapping to keep the dirt out

Atleast from the few spots I've tried

[mystic ether]

Mhm

[carmine lance]

Isn’t ginger like a palate cleanser

[sterile stone]

I think maybe one was kinda sweetish

[long oasis]

youre supposed to eat it with a fuckton of rice

I throw Japanese curry roux blocks into my instant ramen it's good as fuck

[long oasis]

Chicken tikka masala with rice

no clue why its named that though

[sterile stone]

and butter chicken

[hexed igloo]

65 chickens

[long oasis]

it couldve been 6..

[void bison]

I remember seeing this on the menu as well

[long oasis]

its fry chicken

[void bison]

I frankly thought it was an absurd amount of chickens for a singular meal

[long oasis]

65 fry

stir

[hexed igloo]

Cauliflower goes so unfathomably hard

[long oasis]

add rice

[mystic ether]

Can be common in a lot of Asian cuisines. Southeast Asian, far east etc.

Not uncommon in caribbean meals though in my experience it's usually cooked into a liquid or part of a tea or something

[void bison]

broccoli > cauliflower

[mystic ether]

There's like dried ginger candies and stuff

[hexed igloo]

Broccoli is also baller

[long oasis]

no

[sterile stone]

ehhh

[hexed igloo]

But broccoli and cauliflower are equals and friends

[long oasis]

how do you know this information

[void bison]

broccoli and chicken and rice

[hexed igloo]

I spoke to them

[sterile stone]

I'm doing cauliflower out of necessity to cut

[void bison]

you left them out for too long

[hexed igloo]

They had a minor disagreement and I mediated

[sterile stone]

But I can do broccoli any day fam

[carmine lance]

Good to know! I find cultural culinary practices genuinely really interesting, because it also reflects just what they had access to in those regions

[hexed igloo]

I thought we were kindred

[mystic ether]

I get why the bulk enjoyers do chicken breasts and broccoli and rice. But holy shit dude that gets boring fast

[sterile stone]

parm, lemon juice, and olive oil? got a good mix for your brocc

[carmine lance]

I can’t hear the word kindred without thinking of VtM

[void bison]

I spoke to them after you spoke to them and they've got bad blood now that cauliflower had an affair with broccoli's gf

[sterile stone]

I gotta stay controversial.

[long oasis]

ngl what even is American cuisine

[sterile stone]

BBQ

[violet hornet]

Sometimes you're just hungry for 65 chickens

Can't explain that

[hexed igloo]

It'd help if the people eating chicken and broccoli added salt

[violet hornet]

Evolved or derived from the people that settled there mostly

[void bison]

like the uk if they used the spices and stuff they stole?

[sterile stone]

I'm doing keto atm and that's how I can feel about stuff at times. But we have alot of room for creativity.

[long oasis]

comes from the carribean

[hexed igloo]

I could never to keto I love eating Mac cheese in a sandwich

[mystic ether]

Yeah. There's an African world festival that comes in around the summer and plenty of people wrapped up in the local food garden scenes got cool shit all the time.

It's also an easy avenue for people with intersecting histories, even disconnected to have a better clue about what varieties exist for the food culture.

[long oasis]

but basically everything does since almost all Americans are the descendants of immigrants + its only been like 300 years

[carmine lance]

Technically everyone is related because of luca

[hexed igloo]

Nz cuisine has no regard for taste maoris are like if brits didn't even use salt

[mystic ether]

So people that don't really know what some conventions are around cooking the same meals that are gentrified locally (pointlessly too. It's so vapidly mid) just get easy exposure to stuff they wouldn't have eaten and the people making it are like 5 minutes away by car @sterile stone

[long oasis]

uk would have a rich culinary cutlure if they hadn't gotten their economy nuked by 2 world wars

[sterile stone]

It works wonders for your health, atleast if you live on the American diet.

[violet hornet]

France doesn't seem to have that problem

[sterile stone]

Cutting processed foods out and eating mostly veggies and lean meat

[mystic ether]

I mean, they do by virtue of people forced to live with the effects of their colonization. They just gotta be willing to be around the people that make it.

[sterile stone]

Getting clean protein

[hexed igloo]

Sorry no I prefer to be perpetually in a state of exhaustion

[carmine lance]

When I get protein I will always go for grilled and not fast food

Grilled poultry is where it’s at

[mystic ether]

I get tired of fast food.

[carmine lance]

I actively avoid fast food

[sterile stone]

Honestly, I like when the older folks cook the food.

[mystic ether]

I'll eat it from time to time but I'd rather just make my own stuff since I just know better.

[sterile stone]

Somebody's grandma be back there over the pot putting love in that food

And it sounds weird right

But you can really taste when someone cooks something with passion

[mystic ether]

It's genuinely interesting and part of that passing of knowledge.

[long oasis]

isnt the national dish curry or tikka masala lol

confusing country

[sterile stone]

That's another thing, showing respect to the cultures by sitting down and learning.

[mystic ether]

Idk but tikka masala is one of the more popularly known Indian dishes.

[violet hornet]

When you get to the fast food window and the whole crew inside is 35-40+ you know that shit gonna be good

[sterile stone]

I know the oldies out there from very walk of life smile their ass of when the younger peopel come by and hear them talk

[violet hornet]

But also any tiny mom and pop restaurant is like that too

[carmine lance]

Hearing about the mcdonalds nugget sludge permanently turned me away from fast food, regardless of it was true or not

When I was like 5

[sterile stone]

I've been trying to cut FF out my diet entirely. Maybe a resteraunt here and there. Your boy gotta maintain this pretty face.

[violet hornet]

My favorite Japanese restaurant was just a very old couple, could barely get around, but if you were patient you're getting the best $3 tub of chicken curry or udon you're ever gonna have

[carmine lance]

Like I genuinely get upset at the idea of eating at mcdonalds

[modern carbon]

[carmine lance]

Or any fastfood

[mystic ether]

I usually would eavesdrop on family members at big gatherings when people would gossip about each other's cooking.

The council of elders is real.

I will say tho, discipline in keeping yourself healthy isn't easy. Especially with years of just having cheap and easy stuff at arm's reach.

[violet hornet]

Yeah that shit ain't great for ya, kinda ruins the music having it often anyways

[hexed igloo]

The best fast food I've ever had was a place here called fat brother and it was so good and I was pinned to the toilet for like 4 hours after

[violet hornet]

Is this a hero shooter or an extraction shooter?

[void bison]

good animator

has some gruesome stuff

[south prism]

both. i've played extensively in three of the closed alphas and every single time i hate the game more and more

[sterile stone]

Oh naaaah

Customers with their nose in the air gotta be the WORST fucking people to exist.

[signal spoke]

BOTH

oops caps

[south prism]

it's an apex legends extraction shooter without the movement that makes apex fun

[violet hornet]

Hmm I assumed it would tank because both those genres are kinda saturated but maybe they'll pull off the double negative success

[signal spoke]

Arc Raiders will be the new king of extraction

[void bison]

BOTH!!!!

oops caps

[signal spoke]

Hyped for the server slam

[south prism]

Can't wait for the steam overload

[void bison]

the only pvp extraction game I am probably gonna buy day 1

[south prism]

originally it was going to launch at $40 USD but who knows now

[glossy nimbus]

Is anyone here an alpha

[south prism]

arc raiders looks promising but they never let me in the playtest!!!!!!!!!!! 😡

[south prism]

me !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[glossy nimbus]

Prove it

[sterile stone]

Still is $40

[glossy nimbus]

[void bison]

they didn't let me in but it is probably because I didn't send enough death threats 💔

[void bison]

they meant marathon I bet

I bet 40$ they meant marathon

...this person was fighting for they life in the stall next to me I'm so serious. I'm washing my hands after I'm done n all that.

This mfker just walks out. I blink just watching them leave out the door and wash my hands again and even wrap up the door handle because fuck that.

Then I go to sit down and eat with the people that drove me with them and um.

This person is right across from us. Eating their pizza with their hands. I unironically desperately looked around to see if there was any sign of hand sanitizer.

Fucking. NOTHING.

Isn't this the game that stole a ton of content instead of paying for it

[sterile stone]

Unapologetic

[violet hornet]

Which is hilarious seeing as all the assets have that soulless AI generated feel

[mystic ether]

There was just nothing left.

I watched them finish they meal too. They smashed that pizza. Didn't skip a beat.

[tranquil bone]

Bungie has had like three art theft scandals in recent memory

[void bison]

plagiarism is actually incredibly cool and awesome

buy our game.

[tranquil bone]

They just blame contractors every time

[south prism]

here's one clip

[mystic ether]

Marathon got caught scooping the...music and some other assets.

[modern carbon]

marathon is what destiny died for

[frosty herald]

bungie shouldve started developing destiny 3 instead of marathon

[modern carbon]

gotta love it

[violet hornet]

Yeah Bungie didn't just make an awful slop shooter that failed miserably either

They would never do such a thing

[sterile stone]

Shit like that scares me cause I start thinking, "Whomst else in this lair of treachery engages in these fowl acts against mankind?"

[void bison]

I can't aim for shit in pvp on pc

[south prism]

basically there are NPC bots at each of the POIs that you fight along with players

[tranquil bone]

I really doubt D3 would have been any better looking at the state of D2

[sterile stone]

This sounds more like a pve game

[frosty herald]

its an extraction shooter

[south prism]

i mean tarkov has the same thing

[tranquil bone]

Destiny players will take a unbelievable amount of shit and ask for more and they are finally fed up

[mystic ether]

Not like open assets, an actual rip and then whatever else that mattered for marathon goes up in smoke so ppl not gonna fuck with the plagiarism especially people liking bungie for destiny and the shit bungie execs pulled to get their creative teams canned years ago.

[sterile stone]

This could just be me and my view, but I am not fucking with the art style in the slightest.

[void bison]

I have a coworker who thinks that call of duty and battlefield count as milsim games

[sterile stone]

This shit reminds me of the early 2000s cartoon network logo.

[frosty herald]

its completely different to the original marathon games

[mystic ether]

Which is fine on its own but who actually gives a shit about marathon?

[sterile stone]

After the face plan it did, I'd be surprised if anyone is.

[mystic ether]

Not even trying to shit on the games themselves but idk who is even hype for that shit

[sterile stone]

Now Beta Decay is a game I'm looking forward to.

[frosty herald]

og marathon has quite some fans

[frosty herald]

i saw that yeah

Marathon got its people but idk about it being that big for that era of games in people's mainstream minds yk?

Covering the crosshair with a little skull for a single kill

[sullen forge]

Be thankful you never had Nurgles strongest warrior walk into your store with freshly shit pants

[void bison]

I thought that skull was hella bogus too like some major bogus vibes maybe even super duper bogus

[violet hornet]

Quake was fun

[long oasis]

never experienced that but ive walked into a cs class before

[median steeple]

@sullen forge I semi fixed my packet loss issue

I limited my frames

[frosty herald]

i think beta decay and sword hero will be quite similar

[mystic ether]

Big shrug dude. Better off being a marine biologist to find out the secrets of the earth than to wrap my head about that person.

[carmine falcon]

quake is pretty much legendary of course itll get perma glazed

[median steeple]

idk why but it fixed movst of it

[violet hornet]

Probably a lot of people with nostalgia glasses on remembering playing it with the gang at a lan party

[carmine falcon]

real qustion is when they making a new one

[south prism]

it's impossible to see shit when you're inside a mildly dark area too

the game is going to suck

[signal spoke]

the artstyle looks good, i like it but being an extraction just kills my interest

[median steeple]

playing on custom servers also fixes it further

[signal spoke]

and not a good extraction

[void bison]

on black Friday someone shit their pants at a register while checking out with nobody noticing until they were already gone

[glossy nimbus]

LOL

[mystic ether]

Extraction games are also just not something that a mainstream market is conditioned to be down for yet.

[frosty herald]

you what

if someone did that id tell them to get the fuck out of my store

[south prism]

i'd like to send more stuff that sells the artstyle a little more than that very old footage but it's all under NDA

[void bison]

it left shit on the ground that the next customer stepped in and it also trailed to the exit

[sullen forge]

I’m planning to probably play tonight

But holy shit the campaign is SO BORING

[violet hornet]

I kinda wish they went full high contrast / glossy shit with bloom like mirror's edge with the style they have, the way it's currently presented looks dull

[south prism]

another thing that fucks me up is the gunplay and the sound effects

[median steeple]

the only character I enjoyed was Hemlock

[carmine falcon]

only good BF campaign is bad company 2

[south prism]

destiny 2 had great gunplay

[frosty herald]

its essentialy the finals as a extraction shooter

[carmine falcon]

bf1 was ok

[south prism]

they fumbled it in this

[mystic ether]

https://tenor.com/view/thinking-smile-gif-10401171

Damn.

[frosty herald]

marathon has you fighting in arena an for corporations

[violet hornet]

Which is funny because embark is literally about to release one

[median steeple]

D2 has like the best gunplay it's so fucking good, but bungie keeps fumbling everything

so I don't wish to play it anymore

[violet hornet]

Granted arc raiders is thematically different

[median steeple]

I miss pantheon

idk why they removed it

[frosty herald]

i dont know how they did it

[violet hornet]

... I assume

[frosty herald]

but destiny 2 on controller felt so smooth

[south prism]

they keep sending me playtest requests after i fill out those long ass forms at the end of every single one talking about how shitty i think the game is

[frosty herald]

i could use a bow in destiny 2 on controller

[void bison]

https://tenor.com/view/arc-raiders-gif-12268578682245060161

[median steeple]

Like you can harp on D2 for a lot but it has hands down some of if not the best gunplay

SHIT IS INSANE

[sullen forge]

3-4 were actually good if you payed a bit of attention to what’s going on

[south prism]

during the last one i said "this is apex legends with an identity crisis" or something like that

like why would you let me back in

[void bison]

best gunplay is cruelty squad

[south prism]

they don't read that shit anyway

[frosty herald]

i played xbox destiny 2 until i hit a wall with forsaken

[mystic ether]

Heavily designed around that. When bungie isn't playing games with its staff, they unironically have very talented people that care about their work fr.

[frosty herald]

played the intro to shadowkeep when that released then quit

didnt play online either

[sterile stone]

Nah but let's talk about why people with bad breath always make it their mission to get as close to you as possible

[void bison]

chatgpt summarize these playtest feedbacks into one sentence for me pls

[median steeple]

I've played way too much squad im nasty on these TOWs

[void bison]

is bf6 even good it seems like the honeymoon period wore off fast

[violet hornet]

It's like they have been told or hinted at having appalling breath, but doubted it and thought they just needed a larger sample size so now they're out there trying to blow that miasma at people to see if they react

[sullen forge]

It’s fun

[median steeple]

I have a couple of issues like ground vics being useless

[south prism]

Incredibly easy

[median steeple]

and performance getting better and worse somehow

[sullen forge]

Welcome back 3 and 4

[median steeple]

the smaller maps I run fine but holy shit the bigger maps

CPU and packet loss heaven

[sterile stone]

I when I have to stand infront of someone with corpse breath I'm like that blue fish from spongebob

[frosty herald]

arent people saying that the maps are too small?

[mystic ether]

It definitely has had its really cool moments and ups and downs. Playerbase also has chronically poor reading comprehension and awareness on game dev so all of their substantive Twabs they release would get ignored.

It really sucks though because d2 definitely was on a path to finishing itself up with some grace and oomph. Can't say for sure now because eventually I just got out priced from it entirely.

I have zero reason to buy in ever again tbh. Free content is abundant fr but nobody I fuck with is really playing it like that anymore and I'm not really interested in the story enough to just see things through. Not out of my own pocket at least.

[median steeple]

there was 15 of them on the road outside of main

we are so playing this on the weekend

[frosty herald]

when i played it you go through the city being attacked and needing to find your light again

also you had the farm

I am not a COD fan but this is going to make me sound like one, the big ones are pretty miserable when the enemy team has 50 recons and tank players that won’t die

i took some days off on the release for it

[south prism]

i really want another big multiplayer game to get deep into

[sullen forge]

I like the big maps but holy shit I’m not a fan of lack of anti Tank stuff being available

[south prism]

destiny 2 was the last one for me

[sullen forge]

TOW Missiles I rarely come across

[carmine falcon]

i remember them being ok but nothing that stuck with me 😔

[south prism]

then they pretty much killed it

shameful

TOWs take too long to reload

[void bison]

I got off the destiny 2 ship very early and warframe is gaining in power every day

[median steeple]

Mines are annoying

im fine with getting AT spammed with RPGs

but fuck mines

[south prism]

i could not get into warframe

[median steeple]

people are putting them UNDER THE WORLD SPAWN VICS

[south prism]

no idea what to do starting out and every mission i queued into was being speedrun by a bunch of higher level people

[signal spoke]

Nobody will report because we all hate Bungie

[sullen forge]

It’s good because it covers a story of a few lesser soldiers realizing higher ups are trying to start WW3 and stop it even if it’s Mutiny

[mystic ether]

Might sound crazy but I'm glad they canned a lot of old d2 stuff. There was a lot of shysty shit going with d2 when blizzard-activision was up bungies ass and they really put in the work to make the game their own again in many ways.

It's never a move that's received well, but mmorpgs genuinely have to make those considerations when a game's content growth is pushing the limits of the engine being utilized (housemade btw), weird code whatever, etc.

Still not great though because plenty of people still want to have access to that experience.

Welcome back BF3/4

the real reason i can't share footage is because i'm too lazy to edit the videos to hide my ID

the worst part is the beginning but they're adding more new player experience stuff to make the game seem less esoteric

[median steeple]

I love warframe but holy fuck its gameplay is MISERABLE compared to D2 a lot of the time

[south prism]

when they add that i'll hop back on for sure

[frosty herald]

theres a really easy fix for this that cod has already figured out

[void bison]

i really enjoy our conversation in dm

[mystic ether]

Cod isn't that kind of a game though. And again, there's still things that devs have to consider if they're playing around with compartmentalizing masses of content.

Plus, on a more personal note, red was and Osiris need to be in the bin. They're just not quality expansions and I think some people gotta learn that just because something came earlier does not mean it's worthy of the reverence.

But I do agree that there might have been something worth exploring there. But this is during a time where you got an entire dev team working into extended agendas following a literal global outbreak of a deadly disease so...I imagine their priorities outpaced any shared interest. No idea though because I haven't looked that much harder into it.

[carmine lance]

very deep and thought provoking, agreed

[signal spoke]

what instead of a friend request from me, I send a death request

Some ninja gaiden type 2d games and I forgot the name of the game but it's something about black people reclaiming stolen cultural material from museums so hopefully it's actually a solid game to engage.

I guess Nightmare Operator or whatever it's called.

[mystic ether]

Well, there is a playable wizard frog in the game.

[north sedge]

I tried the demo and it is very good

[mystic ether]

Neat game, cool concept, fun loop and interesting characters with a deep enough system that warrants learning and engaging.

I don't exactly care about the rougelike part but it's not taking away anything from the experience.

Adds more character in the way of how the game's hub world progress works and it's a solidly challenging game the longer you play it.

Dotemu makes some solid games in that department tbh

I might actually pick up streets of rage 4 because of it.

Only two player co-op but that's fine

Priced lower too so more affordable for some.

Hemorrhagic stroke gaming.

[mystic ether]

Unsure if it's possible for that kind of stroke to not cause the person experiencing it to shriek

[lapis cave]

after playing psyker flame staff for a couple days:

Do you guys think zealot flamer needs a buff, given that it comes out very slowly compared with the psyker staff and is ammo limited? You can also get close to 100% uptime on the flame staff.

Am I missing something?

[sullen forge]

Better idea

Nerf the staff

[void bison]

flamer needs 6 buffs

[violet hornet]

Not 100% sure but I think you get a longer right click blast from the flamer vs the staff and it might do more damage per second to make up for the ammo requirement. I suspect the cloud / blast length and size might be greater with the flamer

But I haven't used the psyker staff much tbh

[lapis cave]

it's impressive

[ripe quest]

the finger curls, 6 individual 1% direct hit damage increases over the course of 5 years

[lapis cave]

with venting shriek especially the output is very very good

[violet hornet]

Psyker staff probably could use a lil nerf tho the damage is crazy for the uptime and cleave

[placid fiber]

don't forget the following ammo nerf afterwards

[void bison]

it needs less recoil

[ripe quest]

Flamer on Zealot is remarkably strong, Psyker's flame staff just takes it a bit further. Psyker has some high moments that need to be normalized.

[lapis cave]

key talents to maximize it?

[real sonnet]

It's funny how the only 2 viable ranged Zealot weapons for Havoc are Boltgun and Flamer

[lapis cave]

I don't think I'm using it "correctly" because I find it more effective to handle hordes with melee and use ranged for unyielding/carapace elimination

[real sonnet]

Then there's the auric wannabes running Bolt Pistol

[real sonnet]

You're supposed to run flamer alongside something with rending

Like knife, duelling sword

So that fire just megaburns

[lapis cave]

uncanny strike?

[real sonnet]

Yes

You can also add the brittle blessing to the flamer itself

[lapis cave]

so you stack US, and then go to town with flamer?

[real sonnet]

But you'd still want to proc uncanny strikes as wel

[mystic ether]

I'm an auric gonnabe that uses bpistol to solid success. Granted it's aurics so yeah a lot can work but eh. Not the worst thing.

[real sonnet]

More like the other way around

Flame stuff, then melee to have Uncanny Strikes active as much as you can

[lapis cave]

got it

I'll try that next time I use the flamer see if I can get more out of it

[real sonnet]

I was talking about Havoc heh

[mystic ether]

https://tenor.com/view/kizaru-borsalino-admiral-marines-shades-gif-10682292755083267442

[real sonnet]

As in, Auric Zealots bringing bolt pistol to Havoc for some reasn

[lapis cave]

honestly? What does the bolt pistol offer that the boltgun doesn't, if you take knife cancelling animations into account?

somewhat higher ammo capacity?

[real sonnet]

Movespeed

[ripe quest]

Ranged/general attack speed will nerf its ammo economy. Go for anoint in blood, purge the unclean, unseen blade and abolish should work on it. Main reason why it's enjoyed is because it's fairly self-sufficient though, taking throwing knives covers its main weakness. Blaze Away + Overpressure unless doing something niche. Knowing how many burn stacks you need to kill something does wonders.

[real sonnet]

Overpressure do be kinda bleh

In Havoc at least

Brittleness better

[lapis cave]

I haven't used the flamer much. How do you even track how many stacks you've applied to a specific target?

[ripe quest]

Mods, debuff indicator should be working atm.

Healthbars might have that as well, can't remember.

[real sonnet]

It does

[mystic ether]

Snappy staggering for the other mark but idk about using it as a zealot haven't done it yet. It's damage isn't anywhere near as intense as the bolter but the damage heavy one is good enough at clapping most things that aren't bosses or crushers.

Although I've never made a vet build with the bpistol being the star. Not yet at least so I can't push it the same way

[signal spoke]

No More Room in Hell 2 but better?

[lapis cave]

yeah, bosses and crushers are usually the only thing I'm bringing ranged out for in the first place

[acoustic dune]

i have awoken

[mystic ether]

Yeah I can't remember if I ever used the bolt pistol on zealor

Definitely used it plenty on vet.

[lapis cave]

I have healthbars. I'll check

ah, it does show burn stacks
edit: Shows bleed ticks but not stack number

I never noticed

just mess around in the psykhanium and get a feel for the number of stacks required to kill then?

[narrow mauve]

decided to try out the knife zealot (with stealth). quite fun actually though it feels weird not using an eviscerator or other double handed

[violet hornet]

The bar is pretty low lmao

I would love to see a good version of that game tho

[carmine lance]

knife zealot is super fun, but yeah it takes some getting used to

even outside of the invis it has good clutch capability

[mystic ether]

https://tenor.com/view/zeratul-sc2-starcraft-shadows-blink-gif-19739827

Good...

Consider the possibilities of shroudfield further perhaps.

If you enjoyed it that much.

[narrow mauve]

it was fun. honestly the shank is a surprisingly good anti horde weapon

[pale spindle]

Knife is ok wave clear

[mystic ether]

Thunder hammer, tactical axes and rashad combat axe isn't too shabby either

It's a lot easier to play with thammer shroudfield these days too

[narrow mauve]

yeah i did also try thunderhammer shroudfield boss killer

[mystic ether]

How'd you like it?

[narrow mauve]

also quite fun. my biggest complaint is probably that it can't really handle the hordes of elites that start to appear on higher difficulties

[mystic ether]

Give yourself more time with it if you want. Very possible. Shroudfield rewards longer experience and experimentation.

https://tenor.com/view/metal-gear-solid-rising-metal-gear-solid-gif-26937748

[carmine lance]

thammer just in general takes some getting used to with elite spam

but it's very doable

I've taken thammer shroudfield martyrdom into auric maelstrom a handful of times and done well with it

[heady rapids]

Also, man I sure do love getting the classic college experience of having more shit to do than I can physically complete in the given time span, and have to choose what grade to face tank

[carmine lance]

Oh god, yeah lmao. I remember that supremacy one or whatever it was called looked neat, then when it was revealed to be a mobile game everyone collectively sighed in disappointment

it was all just

hype moments and aura

game was pretty boring and the level design was awful

[carmine lance]

I thought boltgun 1 was an enjoyable game

[heady rapids]

its ok

its pretty mediocre

it's carried by hype moments and aura

[carmine lance]

I just liked it because I like older fps games

[carmine falcon]

its carried by every gun feeling good asf

[carmine lance]

True!

Ugh I don’t even know what the hell to focus on first

[heady rapids]

level design makes or breaks a game like that for me

and it was ass

[carmine lance]

I’ve got like 5 things on my plate with academic shit

All of it due tomorrow or the next day

And I physically have not had the time to get to each thing

[plush estuary]

Ace combat 7 was kinda shitty but I suppose it’s pretty hard to beat the bias for 4, 5, and 0 lol

You telling me that you have not been blocking at all this whole time?

[carmine lance]

Gameplay was fun tho

[signal spoke]

One of the most important survival tools in melee in any game
