[thick fog]

Love me when people hate the new Superman is just because of the CGI look

[blissful kiln]

you do you, but it does look like ass

[thick fog]

And when he is not aura farm

[blissful kiln]

it's not just the cgi quality

the direction of the action scenes is hilariously bad

[thick fog]

Could care less about the CGI and was more to the actual action which was fun

[blissful kiln]

which is weird, because other gunn movies aren't that bad

[gilded socket]

Halo book retcons makes my head hurt

[blissful kiln]

nah, it looks bad
i wanted to watch it until I saw those clips

but uh

[shy panther]

man oh man i love it when someone literally judges a book by its cover

if you want to watch it
watch it
its ridiculously fun and amazing to watch

its a PROPER SUPERMAN MOVIE

[edgy junco]

hey yall, saw the game on sale, considering buying it. how does it compare to games like drg and hd2?

[gilded socket]

Dont buy save your times

[shy panther]

Its very much different to those, its quite literally Vermintide but in the 40k universe instead of age of sigmar

[gilded socket]

Honestly advice from a 3 year veteran of darktide

[blissful kiln]

it's an action movie
i judge it by action scenes

they look dogshit

[shy panther]

its a superhero movie

judge it by the superheroes

dumbass

[knotty heart]

Man of Steel was 🔥

[shy panther]

dawg man of steel sucked

[blissful kiln]

I've seen superhero movies with good action

this ain't it

[shy panther]

and everyone thought it sucked

[gilded socket]

Dude is ragebaiting if you dont know

[shy panther]

doesnt watch movie
"this aint it"

[thick fog]

That is like to say a game graphics are not high budget and realistic so people don't wanna play it
Those are the one who never heard of art directions

[shy panther]

oh fair blegh

[knotty heart]

You watch his Creature Commandos show?

[edgy junco]

i haven't played vermintide, but it looks pretty good. how do they compare gameplay wise?

[thick coyote]

It's more melee adjacent than those

[ocean widget]

badly

[ocean widget]

literally the same engine

[edgy junco]

i meant to the games i mentioned

[ocean widget]

its just that darktide doesnt have anticheat so you can use mods

[blissful kiln]

brother I'm literally saying the "art direction", or in this case action\fights look terrible

[ocean widget]

yeah
it compares badly

[blissful kiln]

it's not just the terrible modern cgi

[thick fog]

DRG and HD2 are not too comparable with Darktide

[knotty heart]

No.

[shy panther]

Oh watch out fellas, Superman = Jesus fan is here

[thick coyote]

In darktide your melee weapon is your primary
You have better dodges mechanics than DRG/HD2

[blissful kiln]

and yeah, man of steel, as stupid as that movie is, looks way better

[thick coyote]

It's pretty linear as well

[edgy junco]

so more like l4d?

[thick fog]

Are we really only comparing just the visuals, is that what humanity has come to

[ocean widget]

honestly yeah

[shy panther]

Way more like L4D yeah

[ocean widget]

it is really just a L4D

[thick fog]

Majority inspired

[blissful kiln]

yes, if you're blind and can't read what I'm typing

[shy panther]

you go thru a set map with some tiny things being changed

[little marten]

Just spent 45 minutes chasing a spider out of the house

[shy panther]

why didnt you just eat it

[ocean widget]

you should've used a flamethrower
would've been much quicker

[little marten]

Pro spider life

[shy panther]

fuck did it do for u

[edgy junco]

would you recommend darktide or vermintide 2? both on sale rn

[shy panther]

it pay taxes?

[shy panther]

MASSIVELY vermintide 2

[thick fog]

Both

[little marten]

There was a point where it when into the groove for the sliding door and I could’ve hit it with the spider guillotine

[shy panther]

the transition from vermintide to Darktide is seamless

[blissful kiln]

no, but I've seen clips from that one
that looks pretty awesome

[shy panther]

so if you can get both, get both, but play vermintide FIRST

[ocean widget]

both ngl
DT can at least have mods
havent played VT2 because it didnt install the anticheat for me

[little marten]

Spider eats flies and keeps them out the house

[lime temple]

How many campaign missions are there

[shy panther]

it teaches you the majority of, well, everything

[thick fog]

17

[ocean widget]

like 17 of em

[lime temple]

Thanks darkviperau you never fail me

[edgy junco]

do i need a premade for it, or is it pretty easy to get a public squad going?

[blissful kiln]

darktide bad

[shy panther]

regardless im gonna go bc gachi is giving me a stroke

[little marten]

VT2 is cool but it’ll make you long for the more polished combat of Darktide

[blissful kiln]

vermintide has much better combat

[thick coyote]

If it's VT2 it will depend on the region
But yeah you can quick play

[shy panther]

arguable

[edgy junco]

NA?

[blissful kiln]

it's not endless spam of elites and bosses

[thick fog]

And vermintide has no sprint, so bad game

[little marten]

Barely see when the polygon rats are about to hit you

[thick coyote]

Should be good

[blissful kiln]

individual enemies are dangerous and hurt bad

[shy panther]

darktide does, but its bad too

[edgy junco]

aight, thanks. i'll probably start with that one

thanks yall :)

[shy panther]

conclusion : any mention of sprint within a vidyagame makes it bad

[knotty heart]

It is man lol the Gi Robot is funny af.

[thick fog]

So all games are bad

[shy panther]

correct

[thick fog]

[blissful kiln]

sprint and slide = 🤮

[shy panther]

you have been enlightened

[blissful kiln]

-> darktide bad

[shy panther]

now go outside

[thick fog]

It's time to wake up

Your mother and I have missed you

[ocean widget]

oh no
however will i deal with it
its not like i can just go into a building

[thick coyote]

Depends on which folklore your Vampire is based on

[ocean widget]

true

however folklore vampires cant outsmart being stabbed to death by a brit

[gilded socket]

Sadge

But halo books!

[tired steeple]

just saying btw

[elder merlin]

The trilogy

[tired steeple]

vampire weaknesses are really stupoid

like "can't cross running water"

"can't enter homes without an invitation"

gotta be one of the worst things ever

[elder merlin]

I read a good explanation for that forever ago, cant remember it though

[tired steeple]

I see

like

I feel like if your weakness is

ahem

[nocturne bloom]

Im cooked, saw books, thought it said boobs

[tired steeple]

THE ACTUAL FUCKING SUN IN THE SKY

I don't think any other weaknesses should be applied

[trail ridge]

Hey, question, what's the best primary stat to focus on Curio's? (Veteran class)

+Wounds, +Health, or +Toughness?

[stark bobcat]

toughness

wounds are never used outside matyrdom zealot

[nocturne bloom]

Stamina

[elder merlin]

Maybe the running water is like akin to the river styx?

Dragging their undead soul back to the realm of the dead

[stark bobcat]

and health is not a worthwhile resource to increase since toughness helps with survivability more with toughness damage reduction and it prevents health bleedthrough

[gilded socket]

Im currently on the cole protocol

At the end tho

Need more…

[elder merlin]

I was only ever interested in any books with the covenant remnants and humanity working together

Only ever read the original trilogy myself though

[trail ridge]

oh, wait, you can't upgrade Curio's other than their tier?

cuz if so, how am I supposed to get better Curio's that aren't rating 390 or lower

[nocturne bloom]

Hope

[ocean widget]

luck

[trail ridge]

as for blessings, what is best to pair with them?

[ocean widget]

curios dont get blessings

[trail ridge]

perks, excuse me

[nocturne bloom]

Depends on class

[ocean widget]

perks imo are ability and 2 resists unless you need dockets in which case 1 resist 1 10% more docket

[ocean widget]

vet

[trail ridge]

still veteran

[nocturne bloom]

Oh, I only run stam relics on vet

But

[ocean widget]

the perks projekt

[nocturne bloom]

I do stam regen, toughness uhhh

3rd depends on what im doing

So w/e your pref is

[gilded socket]

Ew thw 343 books

[nocturne bloom]

Ability regen is kinda snake oil imo

[trail ridge]

yeah like what is that?

just cooldown reduction on your special ability like the war shout?

I kinda have/use that one, I use it to revive peeps.

[nocturne bloom]

You can run it

[ocean widget]

meh
12% less cooldown is nice

[ocean widget]

imo remove the revive

the cooldown increase it gives isnt worth

since you can pop it and get the dude up anyway

[nocturne bloom]

12% is nice if youre ability takes a minute by default

Id rather have a node for CDR

[ocean widget]

fair
3 seconds less on VOC is decent though for keeping gold toughness up

[nocturne bloom]

If you have a team that needs it in that 3 seconds that bad sure

[ocean widget]

even if you dont have one its still nice to have

[trail ridge]

what can I do with excess Curio's xd

[ocean widget]

if they're worse than what you've got scrap em

[nocturne bloom]

Scrap if its one thats dookie

[trail ridge]

where?

[nocturne bloom]

In your inventory

[ocean widget]

should be some key for it in the bottom right of ur inv

[trail ridge]

only discard

[ocean widget]

yeah thats scrap

as usual FS sucks at wording

[elder merlin]

Oh, 343 makes them?

Unfortunate

[trail ridge]

Huh there's one I can't scrap

odd

[nocturne bloom]

Is it equipped or favorited

[trail ridge]

neither

it doesn't appear in the screen

[tired steeple]

I should probably wait until sm2 pvp is less ass

Speaking of pvp

Darktide vs mode? Will that ever happen?

[nocturne bloom]

Hell no

[trail ridge]

oh btw, on the autopistol, what does "Collateral" mean?

[nocturne bloom]

If you inspect the gun it'll tell you

[trail ridge]

So it increases cc impact?

[ocean widget]

do you want a bunch of psykers just holding brainburst on each other?

because thats how you get a bunch of psykers just holding brainburst on each other

[tired steeple]

No no not that kind of vs

I’m thinking either

Players playing the heretics like in l4d

Every few minutes or so you get to play one of the bosses

Or

[ocean widget]

staggers and suppresses
its meh but always have mobility as a dumpstat for guns

[tired steeple]

2 teams racing against each other in pvp

*pve

[ocean widget]

sounds fucking abysmal

[trail ridge]

why mobility?

[tired steeple]

Can buy stuff to slow down the enemy team with points you get from lolling enemies

[ocean widget]

neat idea until you realise you're getting flung over the edge by mutants every time

[ocean widget]

because mobility is worthless

[tired steeple]

Yeah no one had an issue with it in other games tbf

[ocean widget]

at least in L4D you aren't going to be flung out of the map

[tired steeple]

That happened often

[ocean widget]

really?

do you mean like actually flung or glitched through the map

[tired steeple]

Yeah it was a big strat to camp windows as charger

Or jockey too

[nocturne bloom]

You get max dodges at 60% anyways

[ocean widget]

ah yes forgot about windows

[nocturne bloom]

Pointless to be 80%

[trail ridge]

what about ms tho

[ocean widget]

ms?

mobility doesnt affect movement speed

[trail ridge]

movement speed

[ocean widget]

at least not much

[trail ridge]

it says it does

[ocean widget]

yeah sprint and dodge

so basically it affects sprint and dodge fuck all

mobility is always the dumpstat on guns
defense is always the dumpstat on melees

if a melee doesnt have defense dump mobility

[trail ridge]

alr I'll try filter my weapons for those stats then, thanks!

[ocean widget]

sick

if u can get a perfect 60 dump stat its great

[gilded socket]

Anything post war is 343

[trail ridge]

yeah, my current combat shotgun has 80/80/80/60/80

with 60 on ammo

[ocean widget]

oof

could be worse but could be better

least the dumpstat isnt damage

[mental jasper]

any idea why

darktide eats alot of data

[elder merlin]

Damn

[ocean widget]

is the FPS slowly going down?

if it isnt thats just darktide

if it is its memory leak

[mental jasper]

no no no

it eats more mobile data

than any other games

[ocean widget]

why tf are you playing darktide on mobile data

[mental jasper]

dorm

[ocean widget]

oh rip

[mental jasper]

my roommate havent arrive yet

[trail ridge]

Lmao. Literally just now, this hour

[ocean widget]

probably cus you're actively connected to 3 other people and fatshark

[mental jasper]

so i dont know the wifi password

[trail ridge]

There's a combat shotgun with 60 mob.

[ocean widget]

if you like the combat shotty grab it

[trail ridge]

Might as well

[ocean widget]

oof

[mental jasper]

there was this time when darktide legit ate 4GB worth of data

[trail ridge]

What are generally good perks and blessings on a combat shotgun?

[mental jasper]

in one day

while war thunder only ate 1GB

in comparision

[trail ridge]

For blessings my previous one had Full Bore and Fire Frenzy

with +10% RL Speed and +10% Crit dmg

[elder merlin]

[mental jasper]

as expected since it's mobile data

the connection is

really unstable

[jaunty path]

You can literally buy a router

[mental jasper]

my dorm already have one

but

[jaunty path]

Or use your college wifi

[mental jasper]

my roommate havent arrive yet

so i dont know the password

[jaunty path]

Text?

[mental jasper]

dont have his contact

[jaunty path]

You can't look underneath the router?

[mental jasper]

there's none

[jaunty path]

You don't look on the side?

You should always have your roomies contact dawg

[mental jasper]

my dorm didnt send me his contact

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1398665085794390137/1409189605974212770/attachment.gif

[ocean widget]

get someone to send you his contact them

[jaunty path]

Is this your first day with him or wha

[ocean widget]

or contact whatever company is currently providing the router n shit

[ocean widget]

#general-chat message

nope

who wants to put money on quans roommate being dead or smth

[mental jasper]

wrong one

[ocean widget]

nope

[mental jasper]

nah hes like

[ocean widget]

"there was this time" implies multiple days

[jaunty path]

Your mobile data is being eaten alive.

[mental jasper]

basically hes a senior

[jaunty path]

You should've asked for his contact sooner but alr.

[mental jasper]

or whatever is it called

idk

so he goes to dorm late

because freshman have gatherings and shit

which you know

[ocean widget]

ask him then

[mental jasper]

older students dont do

[ocean widget]

has he been in the dorm once while you've been in the dorm

[mental jasper]

nope

also

when did general lost media perm

[ocean widget]

then contact whoever does the dorms n shit

[ocean widget]

26th last month

[mental jasper]

is it because of that one person who kept sending femb*y gif

[ocean widget]

its because 2 and possibly more people shat the bed

[mental jasper]

what the hell

[ocean widget]

shat as in fucked it up for everyone
the bed being the discord general chat

they hopefully did not shit in any beds

[mental jasper]

i upgraded my plan to 6GB a day

[nocturne bloom]

Femboy you say

[ocean widget]

[ocean widget]

[nocturne bloom]

[ocean widget]

[elder merlin]

Horse fucker

[ocean widget]

at the current state of boeing i wouldnt be surprised if lamia was an engineer for them

[elder merlin]

[gilded socket]

Buuuuurrrrppppp

Someone should buy me audible credits

[nocturne bloom]

[wary flint]

Not including the arbi penances, do you need to finish all of the other penances to unlock everything related to penance points?

[gilded socket]

I want more halo books

[sage wyvern]

what does a guy gotta do to find a goth girl to carry me in darktide smh my head

[long trench]

Nope, I am far from doing all the penances and I have everything unlocked

Fat Shark does add to the penance point track from time to time tho

[wary flint]

Thanks. I’m like 900 short form getting the last unlock so not terribly far

I need to start trying havoc stuff since I have yet to try it

[wintry fog]

I want more Halo games.
Preferably set a little further in a future with a new big bad alien threat that isn't just another shade of covenant.

• it needs flood ofc.

[nocturne bloom]

Find one on vrchat and gaslight her into being good at it

[nocturne bloom]

Halo died long ago for me

[mental jasper]

what the hell

[wintry fog]

Anyone played Cronos?
I need to know if it's just a worse and more obscure dead space.

[opal wyvern]

What count as specialists again?

[wintry fog]

Grenaders, flamers, snipers, dogs, and mutants.

[wary flint]

Also most or all of the ogryn variants

[wintry fog]

I thought oggys were elites

[opal wyvern]

Not Gunners though?

[wintry fog]

Naw, they elites

[wary flint]

Yeah oggy is elite. Was wrong

[opal wyvern]

Oh the penance accounts for both Elite and specialist enemies

I must throw boxes

[gilded socket]

Halo was good when it ended at 2

[ocean widget]

Dont forget it's got to be a direct hit 5 times in a row

[wary flint]

Most penances count both. Theres like 1 or 2 that specify which one

[gilded socket]

The books are far better

[ocean widget]

Individual grenades dont count

[opal wyvern]

*4 times

[wary flint]

Also shield hits don’t count if you are aiming at a bulwark

[ocean widget]

Nope

You've got to throw the box 5 times a match 4 times

No 10 direct hits doesnt count

[wary flint]

I loved the penance for throwing a box at a corruptor

[ocean widget]

Decent and easy to get without having to focus your entire build around it

What penances should be

[long trench]

I just do all the penances in mortis trials

regening nades and unlimited enemies

[arctic escarp]

that would involve going outside

[sage wyvern]

im colorblind sorry boss

[nocturne bloom]

I used to buy physical ones, even so I just try to steer away from most things related to it

Makes me feel like im way younger again

[nocturne bloom]

False

The real ones hide online

[ocean widget]

Find a goth girl willing to play darktide for one

[blazing hawk]

Why are the darktide redditors so spoiled

[thick coyote]

It's reddit

That's why

[arctic escarp]

wdym

[arctic escarp]

the search for mythical goth girl darktide player

[ocean widget]

Its reddit

You'd honestly be better using a oujia board for darktide advice than you would the reddit

[arctic escarp]

I posted memes in that subreddit

[wintry fog]

Reddit is the pure Socretelian idea of milktoast petit-bourgeois centrism

[ocean widget]

I like your funny words magic man

[green beacon]

reddit def wants vet buffs for sure

#nerfvet

[arctic escarp]

we can reasonably expect a new major update this fall

going by the pattern from last year

[wanton spindle]

Persona 3 reference?

[nocturne bloom]

Bold to assume they know what that is or how to follow one

[ocean widget]

Can only hope it contains a new vet weapon

[ocean widget]

Duh of course they do

[arctic escarp]

I want zealot rework

[ocean widget]

A pattern is the thing they put on cosmetics

[wintry fog]

I want basic bitch daemon enemies

[ocean widget]

"Daemon"
"Basic bitch"
Wut

[wintry fog]

Like plaguebearers and nurglings

[zenith merlin]

i think i miss pre locked and loaded balancing

[nocturne bloom]

run

[ocean widget]

Ah

Nurglings would be hell to deal with

Dogs but worse

[rocky radish]

You mean my sister? Be her fiancée, i guess

[wintry fog]

OMG, L4D Jockey mechanics but nurgling

[zenith merlin]

lol you should see how the nurglings work in vermintide 2

[ocean widget]

Haha if only it had a working anticheat that let me play the game instead of not letting me because it didnt install

[nocturne bloom]

Works fine for me

[ocean widget]

Or if only they removed the damn thing so people could mod the game

[ocean widget]

Unfortunately not for me

[nocturne bloom]

Ask support

[gilded socket]

I want the physical copies but the audiobooks are cheaper and voice acted

[ocean widget]

Yeah true

Still got no fucking clue on how a game can shit itself so hard it doesnt install the anticheat

[nocturne bloom]

They actually used to sell the books at my schools book fair when I was still there lol, thats where I got a lot of them

All in a box somewhere now

[ocean widget]

Which country you in

[somber stream]

Borgir land

[gilded socket]

Dude wow

[ocean widget]

Ah

[gilded socket]

They never sold them at the book fair for me

[ocean widget]

They'll be in the basement @nocturne bloom

[nocturne bloom]

They sold a lot of popular books there surprisingly. I have all the OG Minecraft survival guide books somewhere too lmao

[gilded socket]

Woj….

[nocturne bloom]

I think this was way back in elementary/middle school tho

[somber stream]

I miss game magazines

[nocturne bloom]

I have a large halo concept art book somewhere in my other room from there too

[ocean widget]

Last time I checked they go for like 50 quid now

[nocturne bloom]

Still do them here at gameslop

[somber stream]

Tried reading one of those?

[ocean widget]

Info's outdated so if you still want the info you'll probably want to get sailing

[nocturne bloom]

I have cardboard boxes full of them from long ago

One of them was back when skyrim originally released lol

[fair bridge]

i found a new food youtuber

he actually cooks!!!!

holy shittt!!!!!!!!!

[nocturne bloom]

I cook

[ocean widget]

What's he cook

[fair bridge]

buncha shit

[nocturne bloom]

Made steak, seasoned French fries and pepper corn tonight

[ocean widget]

Oh hes the rock

[somber stream]

https://www.youtube.com/@JKenjiLopezAlt

[fair bridge]

falafel, NYC pizza, general tso's chicken, tacos, ice cream

[somber stream]

The only food youtuber for me

[fair bridge]

kenji's cool too

[ocean widget]

Cooks ice cream
I dont think he knows how to cook

[long trench]

Spoken like someone who hasnt had smoked ice cream

[fair bridge]

will they remember you when you're gone?

[ocean widget]

I hope not

[ocean widget]

Smoking and cooking are presumably different given the different terms

[long trench]

Yeahhhh tbf its cold smoked, but details

[somber stream]

Alrighty then

I want to try wokking

But i don't have that stove thing

[analog prawn]

wheres the arbitor drip

THERES NOTHING :(

[ocean widget]

Not existing

[analog prawn]

man they make a new class and forget the cool drip

[ocean widget]

Do you mean a wok?

[somber stream]

Yes a wok

You need specialized stove for that

[ocean widget]

2 reasons why
gw wont let them
Nothing to reskin

[fair bridge]

you can use woks on normal gas stoves

[ocean widget]

Nah its just more efficient

[somber stream]

You can, but it won't be as good, tried

[fair bridge]

try harder

[somber stream]

You need that constant intense heat for the smell and texture

[tired steeple]

Jey guys what’s a force commander

Cause I’m looking at space marine ranks

And that one seems to be only a dow thing

[ocean widget]

You got a gas or electric stove?

[somber stream]

Both

[ocean widget]

That's why

You need a gas one

Not a both one

[somber stream]

No my main one is gas

Electric stove is a mini, separate thing for boiling stuff

[fair bridge]

YO also jason farmer

[somber stream]

I do believe you need fire for a proper meal

[analog prawn]

wait GW won't let them?

[fair bridge]

https://www.youtube.com/@farmageddon

i made his chick-fil-a sandwich and it was exactly the same

[ocean widget]

Adding cosmetics into darktide could fuck up shit for GW due to lore

[analog prawn]

bro there could alot of COOL drip

[ocean widget]

We aren't getting an arbites krieg skin thats for sure

[analog prawn]

its a GAME

[ocean widget]

Its also lore accurate

[jaunty path]

How would that even fucking work

[ocean widget]

It wouldn't
That's the point

[jaunty path]

Arbitrators are KNIGHTS dawg

A rebreather could work maybe.

[analog prawn]

honesty

arbitors looks more like robo cops then anything

[jaunty path]

Yeah

acts like him too

[analog prawn]

yeah

could have more police looking outfitsd

or lokwey

do a NCR Ranger like outfit

so i can make a FALLOUT REFENECES

[fair bridge]

what is fallout

[wintry fog]

Wardens, we need someone processed

[somber stream]

I only played NV and 4. And i prefer NV

[fair bridge]

what are those

[somber stream]

Things

[ocean widget]

Good

Now dont play 3

[wintry fog]

3 is perfectly good

[somber stream]

I tried several years back

[ocean widget]

Compared to NV tho

[somber stream]

Kept crashing on window XP

[nocturne bloom]

theres nothing really wrong with 3

[ocean widget]

Its just a worse NV
Like sure if you've not played NV then yeah it's good

[nocturne bloom]

yea, you need a few mods to keep it alive

[wintry fog]

NV is the better of the two but yeah you'll need some anti-crash mods

[ocean widget]

If you have though
Just play TTW

[somber stream]

TTW?

[ocean widget]

Tale of two wastelands

[nocturne bloom]

fallout 3 in nv

[ocean widget]

Its fallout 3 inside new vegas

[somber stream]

lol

lmao

[ocean widget]

Dlcs n everything

[wintry fog]

Ohhh yeah, it ports all of FO3, including the DLCs, into New Vegas

[somber stream]

Yeah might do just that ngl

Based

[ocean widget]

You need to own both games btw

[somber stream]

Wut

[ocean widget]

For the mod

You need both games

[nocturne bloom]

you can get fo3 for like $5

[ocean widget]

Yeah fallout 3s ultimate edition is cheap as shit

Or goty

Whatever it's called

[somber stream]

Hmm i see

[ocean widget]

Get it off cdkeys if it's not on sale on steam rn

[somber stream]

Yeah im not in a hurry, got a big backlog

[ocean widget]

Sick

[nocturne bloom]

if all goes as planned im gunning to buy a 9070 this weekend

[gilded socket]

Oooo

Big money

[wintry fog]

Bruh, I didn't even know they in the 9000s yet

[somber stream]

I think it's AMD

[nocturne bloom]

it is

[wintry fog]

Oh okay

[somber stream]

Equivalent to Nvidia 5000s series

[tired steeple]

Buuurp

[somber stream]

Real frames though?

[nocturne bloom]

im just torn between going for the base 9070 or the rx 9070 xt

[gilded socket]

Guh

Words,,,

[nocturne bloom]

can get the rx for about $720 to $750

[blazing ibex]

story's kinda bad

but other than that, serviceable game

NV is better tho

[nocturne bloom]

i love how people say nv is better like anyone would disagree

[ocean widget]

Fallout 4s story is just 3s but flipped

[tired steeple]

Fallout 4 is dooooooogshiiiiit

Sorry that was mean

I really don’t like that game

It’s offensively boring imo

[wintry fog]

Fallout 4 is fun, the main story just kinda sucks.

[ocean widget]

The 2 dlcs are decent but the main story sucks ass

[blazing ibex]

i will never forget bethesda being butthurt with how people didn't like the ending so the broken steel dlc rectified it while also saying really underhanded stuff about the lone wanderer clearly out of spite for the people that complained

[ocean widget]

Automatron was meh

The other workshop dlcs just sucked

[ocean widget]

The todd Howard way

[tired steeple]

You know what’s funny

I actually like 76

[blazing ibex]

dude I bought the DLC, got that ending, and legit regretted my purchase immediately after

[wintry fog]

Yeah Todd Howard is a baby back bitch who doesn't like having his brilliance questioned.
The way they've handled Starfield is exhibit A

[blazing ibex]

Like even as a teenager I could catch onto how petty that shit was

[tired steeple]

How did starfield even sell well

It looked so boring

[wintry fog]

Initial hype and Bethesda ride-or-die fans

[tired steeple]

Mm makes sense

[nocturne bloom]

some things in it are fun but what killed it for me was the poi being the same buildings with the same skill mags in the same spots

[tired steeple]

Like oblivion remaster was clearly made cause bethesda realised how bad their streak was looking

[somber stream]

I like Piper

[wintry fog]

It really is just a very empty and uninspired sci-fi NASApunk setting

[somber stream]

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

[tired steeple]

I don’t hate bethesda. But I don’t like them

They aren’t

Say

EA

[nocturne bloom]

starfield is the one game that coulda benefited from pro gen poi buildings, they could do it, yet they skipped

[ocean widget]

And the show

[tired steeple]

I do not like that show either unfortunately

[ocean widget]

Todd is an executive producer on it
I do not have hopes for the show

[blazing ibex]

Or Activision

[tired steeple]

Yeah

Or Blizzard

[wintry fog]

Bethesda is great alright, it's just directors like Todd who plays favourites with games he considers his and his total unwillingness to listen to the community.

[tired steeple]

I feel like

TES 6 is either gonna be

Grand and amazing and brilliant

Or utter ass

[lofty light]

There's an actually good Fallout show. It's a fan project called "Nuka Break"

[ocean widget]

TES6 is going to be oversimplified abysmal dogshit

[tired steeple]

Because they can’t really afford another screw up

[ocean widget]

Yeah its got a reference in the GRA dlc for nv

[tired steeple]

And I feel like they know that

[ocean widget]

The nuka breaker melee weapon

[ocean widget]

There is no way it'll be anything other than this though going by the streak of ES games

[blazing ibex]

I love when publishers refuse to actually listen to their consumers!!!

[tired steeple]

Well

Are we all excited for larian’s next game

Or maybe

[gilded socket]

@nocturne bloom i need labor for medals

[tired steeple]

Obsidian’s?

Avowed looked really boring

But I liked outer worlds

[nocturne bloom]

im waiting for my boof ass father to get away from the stove so i can make a grilled cheese

[wintry fog]

I'm excited for The Outer Worlds 2.
And Clockwork Revolution

[tired steeple]

And also it has a cute goblin you don’t get to romance

[gilded socket]

Oof

[tired steeple]

Oh valor mortis looks awesome

[nocturne bloom]

outer worlds is on sale rn btw

17 dollars for the dlc version

[tired steeple]

I don’t like ghostrunner (this isn’t even a diss it’s just not a game for me. I’m not the target audience) but valor mortis looks more my thing

[tired steeple]

And what’s that

Clockwork revolution

[wintry fog]

I didn't buy avowed but I watched enough gameplay to know I hate it.
2 1/2 playable races and only three classes, deriving from a much better CRPG series

[nocturne bloom]

in a few ill play tho

[ocean widget]

Im hoping clockwork is good
Ain't got high hopes for ow2 tho

[gilded socket]

Good because the bots are fucking me

[tired steeple]

I should play pillars shouldn’t I

[nocturne bloom]

avowed was supposed to be an mmo but they dipped on the idea

thats why it plays like one

[gilded socket]

Actually lets do that tmr

[ocean widget]

It might be decent but given its a larian game i know it's going to have a terrible act 2 and 3

[wintry fog]

They're both awesome games, just pretend Avowed doesn't exist

[nocturne bloom]

why

[tired steeple]

I can’t romance the cute goblin looking girl in avowed so it’s automatically shite

[gilded socket]

I need to get off for the night, my brwin rotting

[nocturne bloom]

just lmk, ill be around if you decide otherwise

[gilded socket]

Ogay

[nocturne bloom]

GAY?????

[ocean widget]

Oh shit valor mortis is the French bioshock sorta thing ain't it

[tired steeple]

Yeah

[arctic escarp]

and 1 or 2 undercooked character

[tired steeple]

Whll

Wyll

Halsin

[ocean widget]

Yeah I've been keeping my eye on that
Im hoping it's real fuckin good

[gilded socket]

Brwin gone

[ocean widget]

Karlach

[arctic escarp]

lets hope its not the black guy getting undercooked because having the 2 white boys having a fleshed out story

is not a good look on larians part 💀

[tired steeple]

Eh I’m sure they didn’t mean it if this is the same game where you can be bi

[ocean widget]

I mean
They did cut wylls ea content because people didnt like it

[tired steeple]

Plus you can choose your skin colour anyway

[ocean widget]

Despite it being only act 1

[tired steeple]

Yeah cause people are pussies

[ocean widget]

And not all 3 acts

[arctic escarp]

yea thats why it dont look good however unintentional 💀

all the character options and progressiveness (which I approve of)

but they still somehow undercooked with the 1 black character

[tired steeple]

I think it really is cause of the EA changes

[eternal sail]

https://www.reddit.com/r/DarkTide/s/gNcIYYcXMH

[ocean widget]

Yeah it has to be
Wish they would've delayed the game though so wyll and karlach actually got a story

[tired steeple]

Upper baldur’s gate was never implemented

And the halfling werewolf companion

[ocean widget]

Oh hey here's this random fucking vampire, he gets a buff to all rolls in act 1 and in act 3 he can possibly get a massive power spike, also we changed tavs facial reaction to a smile when interacting with him because thats what AA fans wanted

Oh hey here's the literal blade of frontiers (possibly) he gets a rapier that summons something every once in a long while

Oh and if you kill another companion who also doesnt have much of a story you get a piece of armour

It really shows how much larian cares about wyll and karlach compared to astarion

[arctic escarp]

oh gosh yes I remember that

[ocean widget]

"Let us smile while we're an active victim of abuse"
Jesus fuck ascended astarion fans are nutters

[arctic escarp]

also dragonborn facial animations not even rigged properly

[ocean widget]

Dude you could remove dragonborns from the game and literally nothing would change

[tired steeple]

Yeah I don’t think they were actually ever intended tbh

I don’t mind anyway that’s pretty minor

Bg3 is like game of the century for me regardless

[jaunty path]

Do lizard girls sit on you in bg3

[ocean widget]

Dude there isn't even a lizard girl whos with you for more than 20 seconds

[jaunty path]

I'm a student doing a survey this is very important

[jaunty path]

Dogshit game why would anyone play this?

[tired steeple]

There’s quil

But that’s spoilers

[jaunty path]

Oh wait what about dragon borns

[ocean widget]

Who's with you for like a single long rest before alakablam she turns into a cape

[jaunty path]

aren't they reptiles

[ocean widget]

See above

[ocean widget]

Yes

[tired steeple]

Yeah she does that

There’s 2 more

And that’s about it

[ocean widget]

Qxilly smth smth

And that one dragonborn bard

[tired steeple]

Vixxyap I think

[ocean widget]

Idfk she's got a shit name

[elder merlin]

[ocean widget]

I mean a name like jim doesnt sound like your tongue is having a stroke

Whatever the fuck her name is however

[tired steeple]

Speaking of names

Who names their kid Minsc

[wanton spindle]

What kind of name is that 💀

[tired steeple]

One of the act 3 characters

I don’t really like him

[arctic escarp]

Rashemen is supposed to be vaguely slavic I think

[wintry fog]

I remember getting flamed in some shitty twitch chat,
after I said that anyone who names their kids after Game of Thrones characters is an asshole

[tired steeple]

I would say that’s spoilers but if you’re expecting a baldur’s gate game to not have jaheira and minsc then you’re on the wrong franchise

[tired steeple]

You’re completely correct

[arctic escarp]

I like those 2

[ocean widget]

Minsc is from BG1 and 2

[tired steeple]

It’s so weird too. It’s a show about r*pe (not comfy saying that word) murder, incest, the undead, dragons, massacres and l that

[ocean widget]

That's why hes named minsc

[tired steeple]

Who the hell names their kid after a character from a show about that

[ocean widget]

Same with jaheira, saverok and what's her face

Mother superior smth smth

[tired steeple]

Oh yeah I know

[ocean widget]

Viconia that's the fucker

[tired steeple]

Apparently people aren’t happy with how she turned out

[wintry fog]

Right? I'd only call a kid Khalisee if I wanted her to get bullied to hell and back

[ocean widget]

But yeah minsc was someone's dnd character if I remember correctly

[tired steeple]

Oh that explains it

I never brought him anywhere

[ocean widget]

People aren't happy with how larian butchered a well known character from the previous games?

Im shocked

[tired steeple]

I haven’t played 1-3 yet

*1-2

[finite gazelle]

My beloved says shield is a good idea

[tired steeple]

I’m on baldur’s gate 4

[wintry fog]

Some of us remember how easy it is to fuck Jaheira mere days after her boyfriend dies

[tired steeple]

More baldurer

[ocean widget]

Yeah the larian special

[tired steeple]

Yeah I’ve heard about that lol

That was bg2

[wintry fog]

yeah lmao

[tired steeple]

I don’t think Larian were on that one

[ocean widget]

Ah shit was it?

[tired steeple]

Jaheira can’t be romanced in bg3

Neither can minsc

Or Viconia

[ocean widget]

Fuck i never talked to jaheira so I just assumed you could romance her given the bear fucking

I literally had no use for jaheira at all

That's the issue of giving people the exact same character twice

[tired steeple]

I made her a ranger usually

[somber stream]

Jaheira is a mom

Don’t fuck moms

[tired steeple]

That is advice I’m going to ignore

[ocean widget]

Doesn't she have like 6-7 kids

[tired steeple]

I like my women like I like my wine

Well aged

[long trench]

I like my women like I like my coffee

I dont drink coffee

[wintry fog]

Would, after a few rum and cokes

[tired steeple]

I like my men like I like my cupcakes

Pink and girly

[arctic escarp]

not larians fault

they have to follow wotc's canon

[ocean widget]

After someone's shagged it enough where you can't get child benefits for the next kid?

[elder merlin]

Sandwhich man?

[wintry fog]

https://tenor.com/view/netgear57-netgear-netgear-57-57-ccf-gif-9221434538596417978

[ocean widget]

They could've just not included viconia

[tired steeple]

Sure why not

[arctic escarp]

dude my fucking drawing pen is fucked rn

[somber stream]

Oh shit

Wacom?

[arctic escarp]

inputs not fucking working

[ocean widget]

They should've never included the 4 from the previous games

[elder merlin]

Doa

[arctic escarp]

yea

[somber stream]

Expensive

[tired steeple]

Least it means she’s experienced

[arctic escarp]

ive had this for years so only now its starting to fail me

[tired steeple]

Well maybe it ran its course

[somber stream]

Wacom pen 2 is like

$120 i think

[tired steeple]

Jesus

[somber stream]

150? Don’t remember

[ocean widget]

Ngl pretty sure the only character id actually romance irl is gale

[tired steeple]

A good choice

[ocean widget]

I cannot stand how happy karlach is

[arctic escarp]

converted to local price

[ocean widget]

I might get shit for it but i stand by it

[arctic escarp]

if I have to buy a new pen it'll something like $30.50

[wintry fog]

She's an attractive, decently busty muscle mommy

[arctic escarp]

so at least I wont feel like Im getting scammed for a new pen

[ocean widget]

I dont care
She's too happy and I dont like her for it

I get why people are attracted to her but im grumpy so piss off

[arctic escarp]

oh I understand

[tired steeple]

Time to romance shadowheart for time number 7

Actually no this would be time number 5

But still

[somber stream]

Shart my beloved

[arctic escarp]

a good chocie

[wintry fog]

I never really liked Sheart
I think it's her yee yee ass haircut

[ocean widget]

Still gotta get karlachs romance route done for the achievement and boy im fucking glad there isnt an achievement for romancing each companion

[twilit condor]

karlach my goat fuck shitterfart

[arctic escarp]

what if I show you a different haircut for her

[arctic escarp]

I just use someones save haha

[tired steeple]

I actually love her haircut lol

Especially in act 1-3

[ocean widget]

I can understand
She gets a massive character change in the middle of the game

[tired steeple]

*1-2

She sucks at being sharran though

[wintry fog]

There's some great hair mods for her, I'mma use one of those next time

[tired steeple]

Like she’s awful at it

[ocean widget]

I do not blame you
Also getting the save the tiefling so might as well get that too

[arctic escarp]

I like the one that gives flower on her head

[ocean widget]

She should've been a cleric of war at base instead of a cleric of trickery

[tired steeple]

I’d be a way better sharran and I hate villainy and all forms of evil

[ocean widget]

Trickery clerics are more useless than arcane rogues

[twilit condor]

Does anyone know the best purple keystone for Zealot?

[ocean widget]

Bottom left imo

[tired steeple]

Wdym she disapproves of me torturing people?

[tired steeple]

Idk why they even put trickery in the game

This game isn’t made for it

[ocean widget]

Ooh stealth or something
Even though stealth in BG3 is pointless

[wintry fog]

🫲 Wants Sheart to be my tig bitty goth gf
🫱 But I also don't want her to be a miserable

[ocean widget]

Literally the only use for stealth in BG3 is robbing loot and robbing people

[wintry fog]

Not that any of the body types actually have tig bitties

[twilit condor]

Gotcha, is it like debatable with the middle though? I've heard people say Martyrdom as well

[ocean widget]

Just kill her parents before she finds out about them being alive
Problem solved (probably)

[ocean widget]

I saw a mod that gives them
It looks like actual shite

the body mods for BG3 I've seen look like shit except one called "plus sized tav" or smth

[tired steeple]

Sneak attack and advantage on attack roles. Also if you attack certain enemies from sneak it gives them the surprised condition

[ocean widget]

Martyrdom is decent
Just make sure you know how to block and dodge

[ocean widget]

Except that already exists

[twilit condor]

My favorite shitpost mod on bg3 has to be "Withers big naturals" without a doubt

[tired steeple]

Martyrdom is pretty hype

[arctic escarp]

I like martyrdom

[tired steeple]

I didn’t think I’d like it as much as I did

But I can also vouch

[ocean widget]

Give rogues the risky ring or just have someone else be next to the person you want to sneak attack

Either way you can sneak attack every turn

[tired steeple]

Maybe. Surprise is hard to say no to though

[ocean widget]

No it is very easy to say no to given how little you naturally get it

[tired steeple]

Idk I got it pretty frequently

[ocean widget]

If youre actively seeking it out sure
But you dont need a rogue for that

[tired steeple]

Maybe it was my build

[ocean widget]

You literally just need to attack them before combat starts

Even a bard can cause surprised

[tired steeple]

Yeah but you need to be sneaking for that

[ocean widget]

Yup
Doesn't require a rogue tho

[tired steeple]

Yeah you just said sneak

[ocean widget]

Yeah
Sneak isnt a rogue specific action

[tired steeple]

Yeah it isn’t

[ocean widget]

Squatting doesnt require the ability to stab people slightly better with daggers

[tired steeple]

Alright

So who names their kid roboute

[ocean widget]

The emperor

He named one of his kids horus heresy so that shows how shit he is at names

[ocean widget]

The fact before patch 8 only one of the rogue subclasses was useful shows how useful rogues are

Post patch 8 only half of em are useful

[arctic escarp]

yes

[tired steeple]

I kinda hate swashbuckler lol

[ocean widget]

Still infinitely more useful than assassin or arcane

[arctic escarp]

my brain lacking ideas on what to draw

[tired steeple]

Yeah my issue is being able to do sneak attacks without the requirements

That’s like

Cheating

[vocal pewter]

he named two of them after tanks

[ocean widget]

It does have requirements tho

[ocean widget]

Draw gortash being defenestrated

[wanton spindle]

What do you draw?

[ocean widget]

You've got to be in a 1v1 for 2 meters
So having 2 melees reduces how good swashbuckler is

[ocean widget]

Not much rn, their pen shat the bed

[wanton spindle]

Oof, that sucks, I’d love to see their art

[tired steeple]

Eh still there’s a lot I just don’t like about swashbuckler but I can always just

Not play the subclass

[ocean widget]

True

[arctic escarp]

BG3 stuff haha,

[ocean widget]

Just play thief though

[tired steeple]

Do my ranger rogue multiclass cause rogue is doo doo on its own

Yeah I usually do that and duel hand crossbows

[arctic escarp]

theres also nsfw stuff that I drew before

[ocean widget]

Assassin getting a worse version of disguise self at level 9 is abysmal

[tired steeple]

Oh my god I forgot about that

[arctic escarp]

lmaoo I did draw gortash for my friend before

[wanton spindle]

Ooo, I’d love to play it but I just know my brother will be worried ab me doing smth to his saving files 😅

[arctic escarp]

I will say tho

[ocean widget]

The fact you can attempt to push him into the brain pool is great

[arctic escarp]

Gortash has become more attractive to me ever since I drew him

[ocean widget]

Right

Someone get the autocannon

[arctic escarp]

you can just make a new game right

[ocean widget]

Yeah but I dont blame em for being paranoid

[wanton spindle]

He’s BEEN hot af

[wanton spindle]

Yea I could, once I visit him again

[ocean widget]

What is it with BG3 players and wanting to shag some of the worst people

[wanton spindle]

:3

[arctic escarp]

LISTEN ITS A FANTASY GAME11!

[ocean widget]

Granted I cant speak because id fuck AM but thats not the point

Gortash is the embodiment of a dictator

[arctic escarp]

lemme indulge smh

[tired steeple]

I wanna bang orin

Sorry not sorry

[wanton spindle]

Ayo 👀

[ocean widget]

Ok thats even worse bro

[tired steeple]

Yeah

I know

[ocean widget]

Orin is incest

At least gortash doesnt fuck his mum

[wanton spindle]

The only person I wana bang rn is Gerard way

[tired steeple]

I can tell

[ocean widget]

Granted he was raised by Raphael so he cant exactly fuck his mum

[tired steeple]

Your profile has the vibe

[wanton spindle]

:3

I did have him as my pfp for a bit

[ocean widget]

Im sorry the fucking magnus archives?

[tired steeple]

I’ve only heard some MCR. Quite enjoy them

[arctic escarp]

I'd bang Gortash, and Jaheira if I could..

[ocean widget]

Wait no different gerard

[ocean widget]

Gerard keay thats the fucker

[wanton spindle]

No the lead singer of my chemical romance

[ocean widget]

They're like 2 letters off from each other

[twilit condor]

Anyone know when the shop rotates next?

[ocean widget]

Thursday

One of the two

[somber stream]

Next week

[arctic escarp]

in a cargo box?

[somber stream]

And it will be slop, again

[ocean widget]

If any of you want to fuck haarlep of all people though

Good fucking god

[somber stream]

I did shag the thing yeah

[wanton spindle]

Lol

[ocean widget]

You fucked haarlep?

[arctic escarp]

I did once

[somber stream]

I fucked haarlep

[wanton spindle]

Gotta keep in mind people are open to shit

[arctic escarp]

never again afterwards I always kill him and ralhpy

[somber stream]

Gotta establish humanity’s dominance, even in Hell

[ocean widget]

I know but "dont shag the soul stealing sex demon" should be survival guide 101 material

[wanton spindle]

True but like 👀

[ocean widget]

You're also fucking a man who willingly fucked Raphael

And also has basically the same name

Whatever the term for rearranging the letters is

Anagram or smth

[wanton spindle]

🤷‍♂️

[twilit condor]

dude all i want is that ONE GOOD LOOKING ZEALOT ARMOR

THERE IS ONLY ONE

[ocean widget]

Yeah it is anagram

[arctic escarp]

human cambion population extension program

[somber stream]

You missed the inquisitorial drip

[twilit condor]

I need the sanctitude drip fuh that one

Right now my character is hobbling on a pegleg because so far that's been the only cool premium item I've seen so far

[astral basin]

By throne bg3 talk

[ocean widget]

Oh my god i forgot you could fuck mizora

[arctic escarp]

I wish we could kill her

[ocean widget]

You can

[wanton spindle]

I think you forgot that we can fuck EVERYONE in bg

[ocean widget]

When you rescue her from the pod in act 2 theres an option to terminate her

[arctic escarp]

but wyll will die..

[ocean widget]

It kills her and wyll

[ocean widget]

Oh no
Anyway

There is unfortunately not much reason to save wyll ngl

Other than the shitty rapier

Also it stops mizora from fucking with the duke in act 3 pretty sure

[wanton spindle]

Does anyone else fw classical music???

[arctic escarp]

ok but he's a bro

[ocean widget]

Then just nick mizoras brain until she hits 1 intelligence and absorb her intellect

[nocturne bloom]

holy yap can we get more hd2 talk in here

[twilit condor]

i hate those fucking squids

fuck

[ocean widget]

No

[wanton spindle]

I’m tired of these snakes on this fucking plane

[zenith bobcat]

How do you access the twins mission now? Is it still available somewhere?

[twilit condor]

loading into my first damnation mission

[arctic escarp]

actually thas a good idea haha

[zenith bobcat]

Get it.

Stay close to your team.

and get ready to dodge 🙂

[twilit condor]

yerp

i'm a damnation zealot that's all implied 💀

[somber stream]

M.O is fucked

[nocturne bloom]

always has been

[gilded socket]

Hestia save me

[tired steeple]

Hestia with her fucked up neanderthal chin

[somber stream]

Turns out if you toss in 8+ dragons and 2 fucking Hivelord in a same mission, people wouldn't have time to pick up samples

[nocturne bloom]

i noticed i get a lord every run now lol
