@hazy kestrel can OCD be caused by cptsd

[south valve]

Embrace cats?

[visual vortex]

I dont really want to have skin-on-skin contact rn

[south valve]

I think embrace can just mean accept

[dull hamlet]

I just want to feel like I matter

[gilded crown]

What is some mod to make active effects more readable?

I saw it somewhere but no longer remember the name

[gilded crown]

Hello femtiders

[jaunty path]

I say complex ptsd because its complex to pin down where exactly the source of it comes from

[fleet beacon]

Why do dips always make my body suffer

[jaunty path]

At the surface its definitely my dad but it really really abstract

[dire kayak]

[feral vessel]

Fem-what?

[gilded crown]

Is the darktide server the new therapy server?

[feral vessel]

Oh, is this supposed to be a transfem reference-

[dire kayak]

[hazy kestrel]

Yeah

Most definitely

[feral vessel]

Yes and no.

General chat is a 50/50.

The Emperor provides free therapy for all Inquisitorial Strike agents.

[gilded crown]

Well I was Ramona A. Stone

[feral vessel]

(can't do your job properly if you have a bucketload of trauma)

[gilded crown]

I started with no enemies of my own

[jaunty path]

Reading just a bit of it makes me twitch. I feel like I'm somewhere here.

[gilded crown]

I was an artist

In a tunnel

[lethal solstice]

Oh yes you can

[jaunty path]

Start by giving me all of your money

[gilded crown]

But I’ve been having a midlife crisis

[feral vessel]

What do you want all that money for.

[jaunty path]

Self care

[gilded crown]

And I’ve been dreaming of sleep

[jaunty path]

[gilded crown]

And ape men with metal parts

[dire kayak]

hugs you

[feral vessel]

[hazy kestrel]

I see you, fellow functioning traumatized person.

Perfectly functional wym?

He’s fine, probably.

[fleet beacon]

Back in my day we didn't goon

[dire kayak]

i had to pretend like nothing was wrong after my traumatic event for 2 full years

made my recovery very painful

[gilded crown]

Back in your day goon meant villain’s lackey

That’s us

[fleet beacon]

And you keep saying the goon squad is coming

It was bad practice

[gilded crown]

Not actual gooning damn

You dirty minded freaks

[fleet beacon]

Never caught me gooning

[astral basin]

Hit me with a shovel

[fleet beacon]

Well you asked for it son

[gilded crown]

Femboytide offends some

[delicate vapor]

[feral vessel]

'femboy cult'

sounds like something off of fox news

Let's not get political, though.

[gilded crown]

[feral vessel]

RULE 11

[gilded crown]

You did it

[fleet beacon]

I remember when the emperor first took power

Those were better times

[grizzled plover]

I can't wait for the Freeboota DLC to release soon

Playing an Ork is gonna be so good

[jaunty path]

an ork would not be bad

[astral basin]

Dont forget rule 7
No witchhunts
So even if we WERE infested with undesirables of any assortment, common law protects them

Play vermintide, wish enemy factions were more indepth and... Oh wait this one's perfect actually

[jaunty path]

this is how I am with books

[dire kayak]

[delicate vapor]

[grizzled plover]

Hate that there's almost no variety between Scabs and Dregs

[feral vessel]

I personally think DT fanctions fall off because it's just fucking nurgle again.

[grizzled plover]

One has flak, the other has maniac

[jaunty path]

opinion on aeldari?

[feral vessel]

if VT was like, khornites or something, then maybe nurgle in DT would be cooler

[feral vessel]

Cringe.
also guilliman.

[grizzled plover]

Even still, Dregs could have access to Chaos sorcery like Vermintide's norscans to set them apart from Scabs that primarily rely on superior strength of arms

[drowsy lynx]

Definitely missed an opportunity to make two different competing chaos cults here imo

[dire kayak]

i quite enjoy darktide

[grizzled plover]

There are LITERALLY already 2 chaos sorcerers that could be reused here

[feral vessel]

dt is fun but the lore falls off hard

[fleet beacon]

Where's my protein shake

[feral vessel]

ATTENTION STALKERS
AN EMISSION IS ABOUT TO HIT 🗣️
FIND SHELTER IMMEDIATELY 🗣️

[grizzled plover]

DT is fun but every single mission and both factions play the exact same

[gilded crown]

The femtide put estrogen in it

[grizzled plover]

Blowout soon fellow stalker!

oh really, when?

nOW-

[dire kayak]

ill just eat it

[feral vessel]

screams of the damned accompanied by the horrific noises of rolling thunder

[grizzled plover]

Hate blowouts because I'll have a nice squad following me and without fail they will refuse to take cover

[fleet beacon]

I miss malcador

[grizzled plover]

Lose rep with my factions because four fucking stalkers died

[feral vessel]

I don't play modded, but blowouts in Call of Pripyat still suck ass

Do you like having whatever you're doing fucked over because RNG decided to?

[grizzled plover]

The emperor watching the entire Imperium devolve into self-consuming religious fervor

[gilded crown]

Skissue

[astral basin]

Play helldivers
Plot: you get given a gun and told to shoot things for dumb reasons
“I dont want dumb reasons or to shoot things humph”

Play darktide
Plot: you are given a gun and told to shoot unwashed dudes swarming over you before you die of rank stank
“Um akshually the Imperium should embrace super space aids from used needles”

Play vermintide:
RATS RATS RATS I WAS IN A ROOM A RUBBER ROOM A RUBBER ROOM FILLED WITH RATS RATS RATS

[feral vessel]

never played on anything above novice difficulty syndrome

[grizzled plover]

I want the illuminate to get illusionists back

[gilded crown]

Vermintide is clearly the superior

[grizzled plover]

I want dregs to get their chaos sorcery

I want the rats to DIE

[dire kayak]

i ate the rats

buurrp

[gilded crown]

Kill the rats

[grizzled plover]

fuck them rats

[gilded crown]

Guys

I’m tiding

[grizzled plover]

make them chaos shits jelly of my red dust stacks

[feral vessel]

it is becoming rapidly apparent to me that artefact hunting at 3 in the fucking morning is a bad idea

[grizzled plover]

Ecologist lifestyle

Every day artifact hunting

No interfaction beef

[lusty crown]

Honest question, how do blitzes regenerate in this event?

[astral basin]

Okay but
Aeldari discussion

[lusty crown]

Like, do i have to kill a certain number of specials?

[mint gate]

Yo this event lowkey trash!

[grizzled plover]

I would create half aeldari

[lusty crown]

Multiple kills with a single blitz?

[bronze wren]

They suck, end of discussion

[grizzled plover]

God I hope so

[astral basin]

Specials kills it seems
I throw a krak at an ogryn. I get a krak back

[astral basin]

Freak

[lusty crown]

Huh... I see, i see.

[delicate vapor]

Simple as

https://tenor.com/view/david-bowie-bowie-1997-earthling-little-wonder-gif-26025022

[grizzled plover]

listen

[lusty crown]

Then there's probably an internal cooldown or something.

[grizzled plover]

the age of 300 is in demand

[feral vessel]

loner status, too, if you ignore bandits

lonahs were my fav faction in clear sky..

[grizzled plover]

Could never stop playing Ecologists

I love Anomaly for letting me do that

[feral vessel]

my favourite death was probably uh

accidentally killed by a grav anomaly

because i couldn't sprint

(exoskeleton)

😭

[formal mortar]

From what I see it's a chance from killing ogryns, unsure tho

[astral basin]

The craft world aeldari are. Interesting ig
They have the common soldier
warlocks to debuff
Snipers
Assassins
And they have champion units that are just. Raw aggression.

They even have Banshees. Screamy ladies

[formal mortar]

They are tiny and pathetic

[feral vessel]

they're funny when you pull their limbs off, courtesy of brawler oggy

[delicate vapor]

Searched up Aeldari one time on Pinterest and my whole feed is them

[astral basin]

Condolences

[bronze wren]

Could be worse

[delicate vapor]

Hmm

[feral vessel]

What kind of at.

art.

[delicate vapor]

50:50 fairly tame and yeah

[feral vessel]

I don't exactly associate 'pinterest' and 'art' together very well unless it's suggestive art.

[delicate vapor]

[bronze wren]

Oh

[delicate vapor]

It’s ying and yang type of art

[astral basin]

Honestly
The main issue w aeldari, is theyre low key designed to be a space marine mirror
In a setting of space marine over exposure

If the armor was different…

[delicate vapor]

I do see that

[astral basin]

Idk. The unit lore is interesting
But its not represented too well

[south valve]

It's a shame they don't get much representation

Then again, they were in one of the dawn of war games I think

[astral basin]

Aeldar was a rewrite port from wh fantasy

Just like the necrons and orks

chaos was a near 1:1 port, but they werent allowed to keep their champs so
Marines

[whole glade]

i want gumbo :[

[feral vessel]

might've pussied out slightly after being beaten to near death by 2 bloodsuckers

I'd even dare say something promiscuous, but I'm feeling generous tonight.

[paper bluff]

Bro can I get one clear on this event.

All runs for them last 6 hours have been L’s.

[jaunty path]

nade and rocket spam

thats all u can do

[paper bluff]

I’m the only veteran throwing nades.

But they ain’t taking the dudes out in masses.

[lusty crown]

There's a bit of an issue there, and it's that there's SO many specials.

[outer plume]

boop

[lusty crown]

Like sure, ogryns are easy even in hordes.

A single rocket can take out like 6-7 crushers,

[jaunty path]

https://tenor.com/view/67-67-kid-edit-analog-horror-phonk-gif-3349401281762803381

[lusty crown]

Omg bruh.... 🥀

[paper bluff]

All I’m doing is going on gut instincts. I’m the last to die.

[lusty crown]

And that should be enough, but then there's 11 bursters, 5 flamers, 3 flame bombers and a massive horde.

I think the biggest problem here aren't even the disablers, since the event started i've been trapped like 2 times in all my matches.

But bursters? So. Many. Bursters.

I thought it was an Ogryntide event, not a bursterstide event.

[south valve]

I hate burster spam

adds nothing of value to the game

[lusty crown]

Except from a few funny clips

[south valve]

That's true

[feral vessel]

i raised you better than this

[jaunty path]

im older than you

probably

[quaint moss]

ancient bones

[feral vessel]

missus a necron lmao

laugh at this xeno,,,

[quaint moss]

older than the sand i eat

rocks know you by name

[south valve]

How did she survive the dinosaurs?

[ancient violet]

Grow feathers

[south valve]

Makes sense

I think?

[ancient violet]

Everyone thinks Dinosaurs went extinct

But I know the truth

They are everywhere

Screaming into my ear

[formal mortar]

Imagine being an alien who stashed dinosaurs on earth only to later find out they're not there no more

[south valve]

What you're saying makes perfect sense, but the way you're saying it makes you sound schizophrenic 😭

[ancient violet]

Every morning I hear them caw and coo

[formal mortar]

Schizophrenic voices are you talking to yourself

[south valve]

I'm just a figment of your imagination anyway

[ancient violet]

It becomes white noise

The voices echo across the land

A harmony of madness

[feral vessel]

Hey guys,
I brought in a funny looking spiky ball in from the Exclusion Zone,
and I think it's talking to me.
What should I do with it?

[south valve]

What's it saying?

[feral vessel]

Something in Ukranian or Russian.

[woven seal]

whar happen to veteran visor helmet back when i played that was a thing

[ancient violet]

ok so

[south valve]

Didn't they remove it then add it back as a paid cosmetic?

[south valve]

You should probably eat it

that seems customary here

[feral vessel]

Don't reckon that's a good idea.

I think I could sell it for like 5 bucks to some old person, though.

[south valve]

👀

[abstract junco]

My friend could translate

He was practically born in the zone

[feral vessel]

really huh

is it true that resistance to long term effects of radiation is developed for those born inside the zone

[abstract junco]

I’ll ask him

[nocturne bloom]

Ill trade you 1 half dur AK and a half eaten sausage

Great deal

[abstract junco]

He’s got an old red army general uniform cause his gramps was a general

[feral vessel]

better deals than sidorovich in soc btw

[feral vessel]

I have a Red Army officer's uniform, parade one I'm pretty sure.

has epaulettes, too

[nocturne bloom]

I have a stained Hungarian gas mask from my family, a German gas mask from a little after ww2, my grandpa's ww2 helmet and a full Kevlar set from vietnam

[feral vessel]

stinks fucking awful though

Like, reeks of mothballs.

[feral vessel]

Nice collection, I also have a few masks.

[nocturne bloom]

I also own a few firearms from ww1 and 2

[south valve]

That's kinda fucking badass

[feral vessel]

GP-5, two American ones (one with cheek filter), and one original german civil gas mask from ww2

With the insignias still on it.

[nocturne bloom]

And a US trench shovel valued at almost $1000 from ww1

[feral vessel]

shovel?

[nocturne bloom]

Yes

[feral vessel]

kriegslop activation

[nocturne bloom]

T handle

Original wood

[feral vessel]

do have a trench shovel i use for my stalker cosplay

[nocturne bloom]

Which i unironically used to dig a drainage ditch that was about 187 feet long

[feral vessel]

had to make it look worse on purpose

it looked too shiny.

[south valve]

I think my great grandad had a musket or something like that?

[feral vessel]

Once saw some dude casually selling a Kentucky musket in a market in Croatia

[south valve]

and then my grandad sold it because he's a prick

[feral vessel]

was half tempted to buy it

[nocturne bloom]

I got a mosin with all matching parts, bayonet and strippers

[woven seal]

that is so scummy

[abstract junco]

Soviet pocket watch, ushanka, lots of memorabilia he gave me cause he said he’s against that stuff

[nocturne bloom]

I like shooting it every now and then

[abstract junco]

Kept the ww2 tanker hat

[south valve]

Yeah 😔

[nocturne bloom]

Oh

My "water bottle" is also a canteen from ww1

Original case and all

[feral vessel]

Don't reckon I have actually functional war era guns,

[nocturne bloom]

Albeit stained

Slightly

[feral vessel]

I do have a Czechoslovakian training rifle,

that's actually a BB gun on steroids

(punched a hole through a cast steel pot)

[nocturne bloom]

I fixed a few of mine. Gunsmithing is a hobby of mine even if im not totally experienced

[feral vessel]

uncle is also a bit of a gun nut,

[nocturne bloom]

Ive made 2 shotguns and a rifle fully functional again though

With... a welder

[feral vessel]

has two stens, a DB, a few glocks, and a full-body Uzi

double-barrel shotgun is apparently 'family heritage' or sum like that

[nocturne bloom]

I converted a chinese SKS to take 30 round banana mags

[feral vessel]

most american thing I've heard in a while from 'im

[feral vessel]

what the fuck

how

[nocturne bloom]

Shotguns more specifically. Im hungarian and I have the single shot my great x3 grandpa brought over

[feral vessel]

i guess shotguns are just like that lmao

[nocturne bloom]

Pretty sure its illegal to say online

[abstract junco]

I wish I was this cool…..my friend’s into this stuff

[feral vessel]

i guess bro

[abstract junco]

He’d love this conversation

[feral vessel]

You're as cool as everyone else, twin.

[nocturne bloom]

Its just a money sink

I spent like $1700 on a colt python the other month

[feral vessel]

i actually use most of my historical items as props for cosplay lmao

very carefully of course

[nocturne bloom]

Couple weeks ago I bought my 6th .45 auto

[feral vessel]

3d print a model of a detector

have my dad's gf paint it for me

breaks the second i get to a convention center

[nocturne bloom]

I do have a 20g shotgun that shoots 50 cal slugs

Love that thing

[feral vessel]

nice

I think I'll go shoot a 12gauge the next time I'm at da range.

[nocturne bloom]

I plan to buy a bullpup shotgun soon and mod it out for fun

Thats only if I cant find a model 1897 tho

I have like 2k saved for one

I want a 20 inch 12g version so it shouldn't be too hard to find

[languid hazel]

Highguard is shutting down lol

[jaunty path]

mhm

[languid hazel]

Studio that apparently was a lot of experienced shooter devs releases a very mid shooter. Proceeds to lay off like 70% of the team then shut the game down

Lmao

[zenith merlin]

so many potential FPS games saying "hey remember titan fall? yeah you're not getting that"

Apex getting a gundam collab is also a slap on the face

[languid hazel]

I want a studio to actually make a Titanfall 3 but not actually titanfall and instead its own IP

[nocturne bloom]

I just want a new genuine, well made MMO to come out

[formal mortar]

One with factions to war with each other

[languid hazel]

I was about to say FFXIV then I remembered that it is far from well made. I’d know. I’ve been playing it for two years

[nocturne bloom]

I did say new

Something well made based off of what the older ones did best. Not just money grabbing slop

[hazy kestrel]

I think today I’ve gone through the equivalent of being infected with Nurgle’s latest stomach bug.

I went to a local Jack-in-the-box for the first time, in spite of the fact that it had a rating of 2.8 on google reviews.

(It tasted good, but I think I’m feeling the adverse effects now.)

I then decided to try shopping at this Asian market for the heck of it, to see what they had there you know?

I bought a raspberry chocolate bar, among other things, and it tasted like fucking cough medicine.

I am now sitting down after eating dinner, while my stomach goes to nuclear war with itself.

This stomach ache is not fun. :(

[languid hazel]

Take some laxatives. You’ll thank me later

[nocturne bloom]

Eat more

[hazy kestrel]

I probably should, but I can’t get over the fact that: somehow, some company has managed to make an awful tasting chocolate bar.

How the fuck do you manage that?

I love chocolate

[feral vessel]

Can't take fucking laxatives, the High Lords of Terra are hoarding all of them for themselves.

[south valve]

I've never liked any kind of fruity chocolate

or mint chocolate, which is heresy

/j

[hazy kestrel]

Mint chocolate is alright but in small quantities.

Fruity chocolate is usually great! Except in this instance.

[south valve]

Fair enough

[feral vessel]

Y'all eat chocolate?

Don't know why but I despise chocolate.

Like, other sweets? Fine. But chocolate just doesn't sit right with me.

[south valve]

Heresy /j

[feral vessel]

Usually makes my stomach make weird noises.

[hazy kestrel]

I can’t stand candy corn.

Licorice is hit or miss.

[feral vessel]

I like salty more.

Tried to make homemade chips a bit ago. Didn't turn out too great,

for some reason whenever we try to do potatoes they end up really sweet rather than salty.

[south valve]

That's weird

[hazy kestrel]

Clearly, you must get sweet potatoes for this, it’ll turn out salty then.

[feral vessel]

douse them in a handful of salt

still sweet

[hazy kestrel]

Put two handfuls.

[feral vessel]

instant liver failure

crumples like paper under heat

[hazy kestrel]

Drink a gallon of water per chip, problem solved.

[nocturne bloom]

Spicy or bust

[crisp yoke]

What yall talkin about

[thick coyote]

Chocolate

[feral vessel]

nothing

I think we were talking about food.

Also mentioned Stalker like an hour ago.

[turbid jungle]

over here stalking it bandit style

[feral vessel]

joining bandits in clear sky was the worst experience i ever had in the worst stalker game ive ever played

ever since that day, i hated bandits

[languid hazel]

I keep hearing Stalker 2 is the worst Stalker meanwhile I’m over here like “game fun, funny rocks make me feel tingly :3”

[feral vessel]

i mean it is bad if you played the previous games,

at least that's the case for me

[languid hazel]

never had the opportunity ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[feral vessel]

(though i only played a bit of stalker 2)

[feral vessel]

games are like 5 bucks each on steam

[languid hazel]

I just like collecting funny rocks

[feral vessel]

i would suggest trying them out

[languid hazel]

I’m on xbox. And I’m not a nostalgia gaymer

[feral vessel]

oh

meeh

[languid hazel]

If a game feels like shit to play, I do ‘t like it

[feral vessel]

then play Call of Pripyat

it's the best of the original three

also would argue that it's better than stalker 2

can still collect funny rocks

[feral vessel]

also i wholly understand this opinion and it is entirely fair with something like clear sky because that game is actually unplayable at times

[languid hazel]

I would consider grabbing the collection on xbox with the “remasters” of the original three games but last I heard (and saw) they used AI to upscale the resolution of everything and also to do the UI

And that’s a hard pass from me

I wonder if the original games are on here and not just the remasters 🤔

[feral vessel]

'if you only have time for one, get pripyat'

[languid hazel]

To the store!

[feral vessel]

don't get the enhanced editions they're worse than the originals lmao

[languid hazel]

Only the “enhanced” editions are on here >.>

[feral vessel]

Best 2nd option then is getting a hard copy but I doubt you're willing to go that far to try out the game

(i wouldn't. that's for sure)

[languid hazel]

My ecksbawcks doesn’t have a disk drive either

[feral vessel]

am i too old for console

what

pc master race syndrome i guess

[languid hazel]

-# it was originally my brother’s series x that he bought. It’s an all digital one that he got because it was somewhat cheaper

[feral vessel]

oh bydaway can i send u a friend req pretty please

[languid hazel]

-# I think it has a more powerful fan or something in place of the disk drive

Disk drive? Is it Disc drive or disc player?

[feral vessel]

disk drive

[languid hazel]

On discord? Shore! On darktide? Also shore! But I’m not online right meow

[feral vessel]

actually i think both is correct

'disc' is british english last time i checked

thanky

oh wait, disk player more likely

[languid hazel]

-# I will admit I bought the ultimate edition of stalker 2 some months back and I do not regret it. I just that GSC doesn’t do anything more stupid with the game than they already have. I love it, I really enjoy it, but they definitely did some atupid shit

[feral vessel]

gsc is a fucking expert at doing dumb shit you'll see

[whole bough]

what taters

[feral vessel]

normal taters,

[whole bough]

what kind

theres different types of tater

[feral vessel]

idfk

european taters

central european taters

[whole bough]

maybe thats why

idk

[twin flower]

taters

[feral vessel]

european taters are sweet?

that's.................

Sweet.

I should really be going to sleep now.

SHIT I wanted to watch Beastars.

[languid hazel]

Go to sleep ya silly

[feral vessel]

i am not silly

I swear to god I do not need another goobert saying I'm silly.

(please do keep calling me silly)

[languid hazel]

Silly bean :3

-# I shockingly enjoyed Stalker 2 in pretty much its entirety, minus a few things here and there. But I think it’s mostly because I never played the old games

-# had I gotten to play them growing up, I imagine I would hate Stalker 2

[feral vessel]

highly likely

I would also say that being European is a notable part of the STALKER experience (TM)

(not that it's necessary, though)

[south valve]

Boil em, mash em, stick em in a stew

[languid hazel]

-# I have a lot of European ancestry if that counts /joking

Mostly Italian

[feral vessel]

I meant more like,

post-socialist countries

i.e. eastern europe

also known to normies as 'hell'

to me (as a slav) the entire thing felt surprisingly nostalgic because of how similar it looked to the places where i was growing up

[languid hazel]

Understandable

[twin flower]

potato schnapps

[south valve]

Oh this is new to me

[stuck crescent]

Know what would be cooler?

Welsh

Mostly welsh

[south valve]

potato alcohol

[stuck crescent]

(Can you tell I'm welsh)

[winged oasis]

How the fuck do people instant clear monstrosities

[south valve]

very unique

[twin flower]

Indeed

[languid hazel]

-# One thing I will say that is disappointing about Stalker 2 is the faction system. At present it is still barely existent and the fact that you can’t join any factions outside of the Ward and Spark is rather disappointing

[winged oasis]

Also whoever immediately walked straight up to that demonhost last night

Fuck you

[twin flower]

it was me

[south valve]

Insert derogatory joke about the Welsh language

[languid hazel]

Sorry that was me 😔

[blazing ibex]

Cau dy Jops

[languid hazel]

You’re not wrong. I’ve got a lot of Fashy heritage from my knowledge so yikes on that front. But Welsh? Nah you lot are cool :3

[south valve]

That's either rude or I'm flattered

(think I covered all bases)

[languid hazel]

Plus Wales has one of the coolest flags in the world

You got a damn dragon on your flag ffs

That’s badass!

[vivid bluff]

does anyone feel like rogue trader is basically just baldurs gate in a w40k skin??

[languid hazel]

Nyo?

[stuck crescent]

i mean, yeah

kinda

[vivid bluff]

the mechanics is like 30 years old 🙂

[languid hazel]

Rogue Trader is a CRPG.

[south valve]

Google translate says that means "funnel"

[stuck crescent]

close enough

[south valve]

and google translate is infallible, as we know

[stuck crescent]

you funnel

[south valve]

:(

[stuck crescent]

hehehahahhohoho

[winged oasis]

Those are two vastly different crpgs

[rough verge]

new to pc, anyone got any recommended pc exlusives to try?

[south valve]

As an Englishman, it's the law that I oppose you

or something

[languid hazel]

Calling Rogue Trader Baldur’s Gate but with a WH40K skin is wildly wrong. They’re similar, but to call them the same is… quite odd. There’s tooooons of games out there like both the predate both

[winged oasis]

I'd say figure that out yourself

[stuck crescent]

kenshi

[languid hazel]

Darktide :3

[blazing ibex]

Thunderhammer with the right setup basically one shots any boss in the game

[rough verge]

i wanna try games that i havent aready bought on the ps5 first

[blazing ibex]

Knife also does crazy backstab dps and relic blade is kinda in the same reign as thunderhammer but clearly isn't as good at one shots as the thunderhammer is

[languid hazel]

Oh! Then get the original Stalker games and then mod them to high hell

[sleek harness]

Leanna

[rough verge]

just like how l4d2 and deep rock are the same game

[twin flower]

Red Dead 2

[rough verge]

ill write that down ty!

[languid hazel]

[rough verge]

i alr played that on ps4 unfortunately 🙁 game of all time imo

[sleek harness]

No just saying hi

That's how I do it

[languid hazel]

Rdr2 remaster when?!?!

[languid hazel]

Meowllo ;3

[sleek harness]

After GTA 8

2077

[languid hazel]

Fuck my chungus lifep

[rough verge]

i feel like with rdr2's insane optimization and unreal performance on LAST GEN, a current/next gen remaster would be insane

[sleek harness]

The "Next Gen" update being like Fallout 4 Next Gen update

[rough verge]

i would end it

actually i never played fallout 4 i just assume that you mean bad

[sleek harness]

Fallout 4 buggy, next gen update made it worse

Also broke every mod

[rough verge]

darn

i just got schedule 1 today 🙂 its so fun

[sleek harness]

You would think they would go back with the update, right?

[rough verge]

bethesda moment

[sleek harness]

I don't know what game that is

Just heard mention of the 2

[twin flower]

Schedule 1.. that drug game?

[rough verge]

es6 hasnt even dropped yet and ive already been let down and dissapointed

[sleek harness]

That one game Reggie played

[rough verge]

yuh i got it gifted since my boys are on pc and now we can play coo[

[winged oasis]

I'm following the assassin thunderhammer build by hammer of the emperor and I haven't one shot much

[twin flower]

indeed a great game with the boys

[twin flower]

whos Reggie

[feral vessel]

Why are you all suddenly awake when I'm about to go to sleep?

Is this a conspiracy against me..?

[sleek harness]

You don't know Reggie?

Damn

[rough verge]

[blazing ibex]

[sleek harness]

You wasting your YouTube time

[twin flower]

Nah

[hidden whale]

I just got off work boss

[blazing ibex]

That is literally the thunderhammer's entire identity.

[feral vessel]

the wonders of european timezones i guess

I don't fucking know.

[hidden whale]

you must be the euro

[sleek harness]

Here just take a look at his channel https://youtube.com/@reggiegames?si=nJCKBiQFCX8sZAHT

[feral vessel]

the euro?

I'm da real euro?

Is this an attempt at flirting?

[rough verge]

u da real euro

[feral vessel]

That's very kind of you, petal.

[winged oasis]

Well idk what to tell you,nits at power 500 and it needs a solid few thunder smacks to break crushers

[rough verge]

🌕 🏀 🗑️

[sleek harness]

Why are you calling Merp the most costful currency in the world

[winged oasis]

And I can't really spam shroudfield

[blazing ibex]

No. Not crushers

Bosses

This is

Where you realize

Thunderhammer

[winged oasis]

Same thing with bosses

[hidden whale]

european (derogatory)

[blazing ibex]

Bruh

Are you going behind them?

And are you using thrust?

[twin flower]

Watching that featured vid on his channel about total war: warhammer and 2mins in he calls the skaven faction a colony of twitter users

[blazing ibex]

And martyrdom?

[feral vessel]

Pounds are actually like. 15% higher course rn than euro.

[sleek harness]

He isn't wrong

[feral vessel]

1 pound is roughly 1.15 euro

[blazing ibex]

There is no way that isn't one shotting monstrosities

[winged oasis]

Martyrdom is pretty risky

[hidden whale]

whenever I play Skaven I have a bad habit of throwing because ill betray all my Skaven allies and we all go down together

[sleek harness]

Also Growth Juice

[rough verge]

oh i forgot about the currency i thought i was saying u da real europena

[blazing ibex]

Welp.

[feral vessel]

Europena!

[blazing ibex]

It's a pretty fundamental part of the setup

[rough verge]

i m faded than a hoe oyu cant ask me to spell right

[feral vessel]

trying to do any advancement on an asexual is like hitting your face against a brick wall

Actually less about my asexuality and more about the fact I'm a dumbass (as a person).

[rough verge]

i dunno what that word means

[hidden whale]

they reproduce by splitting their body in half

How does weight is more costful than gold

Guy reminds me of spiffin biffa with the way he talks

[sleek harness]

You mean Spiffing Brit?

[visual vortex]

No

[twin flower]

Yes, he also goes by that name

[feral vessel]

The city skylines guy?

[visual vortex]

He means whiffin wiffa

[sleek harness]

Never saw someone call him Biffa

[feral vessel]

I speak either like Rogal Dorn (from TTS) or Mitten Squad depending on my mood.

[twin flower]

I know him from other vids

RIP the legend😵‍💫

[feral vessel]

[rough verge]

im sad now im gonna go have a ber

[winged oasis]

After much consideration and consulting both hivescum and arbites channels

I think imma buy arbites

Judging my dredd rn

[feral vessel]

Good answer nephew.

Tel Aviv will be satisfied.

[rough verge]

is dt cross prog?

[feral vessel]

You gotta contact Fatshark to transfer data between platforms.

[sleek harness]

@twin flower Theres also Martincitopants which is Reggie but less deranged and more coke addicted

[rough verge]

oh, will i keep dlc classes i bought?

[feral vessel]

I believe so?

Again, you have to contact Fatshark about it. I'm not knowledgable about the process.

[rough verge]

yeah ima go do that ty

[winged oasis]

wat

[sleek harness]

I think they often have it offline

Or they don't do it to Vermintide 2 at all

[feral vessel]

just relaying what i heard

[sleek harness]

Trust me bro

[feral vessel]

Nothing. No idea why you're replying to an empty message, though.

[sleek harness]

I am the plant guy

[hidden whale]

wat

[feral vessel]

Me?

Is that supposed to be directed at me?

Missus is telling you those silly lies again.

I'll have you know, I have absolutely no feelings for plants.

[stuck crescent]

Some of them taste good

[feral vessel]

I'm telling the truth.

I don't ever lie.

[sleek harness]

Didn't you just agreed to have something to do with plants just like, 6 hours ago

[feral vessel]

What?

Impossible.

I would never.

If I did I was probably high or running on 3 hours of sleep.

and wanted some fucking rest or something

[sleek harness]

Dementia at his lowest

[whole bough]

plant sex or something whatd i miss

[sleek harness]

Me making fun of Merp 6 hours ago

[feral vessel]

I would really tell you in DMs but this being brought up every other fucking evening is starting to degrade my sanity more than this server usually does.

[sleek harness]

Alright

I will stop

[feral vessel]

Thanks!

[rough verge]

i think im gonna get VT since i just like fantasy more than sci fi

[sleek harness]

Vermintide is thet

Trash

[quaint moss]

:3

[rough verge]

i like fantasy

[quaint moss]

fantasy is better

[sleek harness]

But it's trash

[quaint moss]

in like every way

[sleek harness]

Buy Vermintide 2 or Baldur Gates

[quaint moss]

baldurs gatekeep

[rough verge]

i meant the newest one

the second

[sleek harness]

Then say Vermintide 2

[rough verge]

love baldurs gate

[rough verge]

maybe. maybe not

[sleek harness]

Lazy ass

[rough verge]

i bench 200

[somber marten]

Ummm is the game supposed to take like 5 mins to load up each start lol? I dont have a potato PC

[sleek harness]

Buy a new Darktide

Easy

[somber marten]

Maybe for someone else lol

[whole bough]

yes the game is badly optimized

worse so after the latest patch

[vivid bluff]

i guess fundementally i felt like things haven't progressed much since BG1 or BG2. the interface is still pretty much the same. it feels like teh bulk of the game is the tactical combat portion, but I guess maybe i'm asking too much of the genre as a whole.

i'm not really sure what would "wow" me for a CRPG. i guess i was hoping that rogue trader 2 would do for crpgs like what darktide does for horde shooters 🙂

[somber marten]

And it took me 4 minutes to load into a mission oh my dayyyssss 😭 😭

[blazing ibex]

...Are you on an HDD by any chance

[grave badger]

hello, im new looking for other new players who want to level up together

[somber marten]

Nah I got an SSD

[twin dirge]

Darktide 2 when

[somber marten]

I have no issues with other high demand games is what I'll say

[twin flower]

Dear lawd no

[twin dirge]

Meh Mac n cheese

How you doin

[twin flower]

Mac'ing it

[twin dirge]

Fuck yeah

So-so, wby

[twin dirge]

Not bad, making decisions that are vital to maintaining my mental health currently

Said decision is ignoring my now ex

[twin flower]

Funnily enough I have a friend going thru something similar

All the best

[whole bough]

the loading should get faster after some time or you can mod

for whatever reason modding seemed to just speed up loading a lot

didnt even get a mod for it

it just did it

[twin dirge]

It's me, I'm the friend

Nah but it's not that bad anymore, I was pretty tore up bout the whole thing for a week or 2 but I'm on the down now

[twin flower]

Shih, you right

[somber marten]

Okay sure I just reinstalled a couple hours ago so I'll probs see it get faster in due time

[twin dirge]

[whole bough]

it did atleast get somewhat faster

[twin dirge]

I'm ready to FUCK

[whole bough]

still might be a minute or 2 but yeah it used to be like

5 minutes to get into a mission when i started playing

[twin flower]

wut now

[whole bough]

loading times

[twin flower]

big ass wasp just went in my room fuck

[whole bough]

owned

i sent that wasp

[twin dirge]

Kill it

With fire

And lots of hatred in your core

That way the fire burns extra hot

@drowsy lynx you can use your words creature of the shadows

[winged oasis]

Is power falchion nuttier than powersword

[stuck crescent]

NOT AS NUTTY AS THE CHAINSWORD

[drowsy lynx]

nah it's butts

[stuck crescent]

UNLIKE THE CHHHHAAAIIINNNSWORD

[winged oasis]

Why?

It does the same thing as power sword but I don't need to spam it every 5 secons

[drowsy lynx]

low damage and the attack patterns feel odd

[winged oasis]

Okay

And skill issue

[twin dirge]

I like it and I love it but it also makes me sad

[whole bough]

falchion is mid ig

i havent really used it much

weaker relic blade basically

[twin dirge]

Cuz it has that random poke in the light attack string

[drowsy lynx]

I don't play vet, that's just what I've heard lol

[stuck crescent]

I prefer it over powersword, but its still not that good

[whole bough]

if it was like

actually like relic blade itd be good

but its just worse in every way

[drowsy lynx]

When I do play vet I either use the psword or shovel

[stuck crescent]

CHAIN GANG 4 LIFE

[vivid bluff]

psword is goat

[whole bough]

ive been using chainsword a lot

i used to not like it but its p good

[winged oasis]

Power sword makes me want to hurt myself cause of how reliant it is on spamming special

[drowsy lynx]

right, exactly

[whole bough]

power sword imo i dont like because

[drowsy lynx]

It should do a little more damage / cleave at least from what I've heard

[whole bough]

it really likes having timings inbetween activations

you cant keep swinging + activate + swinging

you gotta stop to activate

which yea other weapons do but

it doesnt feel nearly as fluid

[drowsy lynx]

eh the three swings with power cycler is enough for me

[winged oasis]

Animation cancelling is not a stop gap solution

[drowsy lynx]

But I run thunder hammer a lot so activating fairly often feels pretty normal to me

[shell creek]

Extra toughness or extra wounds for curios?

[drowsy lynx]

toughness unless you're running martyrdom zealot

[shell creek]

Gotcha, ty

[winged oasis]

What's up with getting more wounds

Is it ig you get more slots for corruption but med stims suck ass

[drowsy lynx]

yes, and it allows you to go down more times before dying since you only get 1 wound of corruption each down

some talents will use wounds as a mechanic as well, particularly on zealot

[winged oasis]

Oh that's why I down like ass

Most of my fucking operatives are 2 wounds

[drowsy lynx]

ogryn gets one bonus wound because large man

[formal mortar]

Ogryn biggest and bestest

[drowsy lynx]

It's pretty popular to opt for three toughness curios since the 51% toughness from them can help you avoid chip damage enough to keep you from going down

[formal mortar]

I like chips, have doritos

[stuck crescent]

Hope they rework curios one day

[shell creek]

I'm running vet rn, feel a bit too squishy which is why i asked this, but its probably because my character is only lvl 17 lol

[winged oasis]

Ogryn sounds fun in paper but holy shit I do not like starting at base 0 and having to get weapons levelling up slowly

[drowsy lynx]

oh yeah vet can feel squishy early on

If you grab voice of command or executioner's stance it can help you generate toughness but I cannot remember the prerequisites

[somber marten]

Okay stuff is loading at light speed now awesome

[shell creek]

Yeah I've been running voice of command with its duty and honor upgrade, its been a big help

[stuck crescent]

what's your build look like soo far?

[trail linden]

What about zealot?

I was thinking of 1 of each

[shell creek]

Pinged you in vet chat

[trail linden]

I can drop stamina one ig

[hazy kestrel]

There is no build variety, only Martyrmaxxing.

[trail linden]

I was initially going for that node but there are just too good talents in the crit node leading up to it to not chose it both of my weapons have good crit scaling too

[drowsy lynx]

I've heard running a stamina curio with two toughness is nice if you're good at always dodging and sliding but I just run three toughness personally. If you're running martyrdom you only need 2 wound curios, plus the 2 wounds from that one talent near the middle keystone to be at max stacks on your last wound so you can run a toughness with 2 wounds for that. Alternatively you can run three wound curios and only need to be at 2 remaining wounds to have max stacks

or you can run fatmangus and have health ones haha

[trail linden]

I was thinking of health / toughness / stamina since there is one node that decreases dmg taken by 60% once they touch your hp how is 3 toughness for you?

[chilly shell]

Waiter more ogryn skulls please.

[trail linden]

I hate gunners too much to go full hp

😭

How combos are faring? Let's say 2 hp / 1 toughness

[drowsy lynx]

I run a squishy relic blade IJ zealot pretty often and I'm just dodging all the time so the toughness works well for me

[trail linden]

Also does anyone know why fatmangus work in the first place?

[languid hazel]

My focus is gone because meds wore off. Quick someone pass the doobie

[chilly shell]

Thoughts on going double heat reduction for relic blade? I want as much uptime as possible for ogryn hordes.

[trail linden]

I run duelling sword

[drowsy lynx]

It's just stacking all the health tanking elements it can find, it's mainly for havoc where that amount of survivability feels meaningful while the relic blade and shroudfield let you still do damage to hordes and bosses respectively

[trail linden]

I haven't touched relic blade yet but it's on my list

[drowsy lynx]

Dueling sword is nice for mobility and armored targets for sure but it's rough handling a big mixed horde with it

Relic blade is slower but is great vs all targets

[trail linden]

I am playing havoc so I know toughness is penalized more than hp but still the gunners man lmao

[whole bough]

relic blade is really strong

it basically makes armor not exist so you just have a good sword for everything

[trail linden]

Boltgun go boom

😂

[whole bough]

also

idk why i never used vraks until now

wel i do know why

it sconfusing

u got infanty and vigilant gun

both with like 3-4 alts

but vraks is fun

and very silly on crit psyker

• both close damage perks

[trail linden]

Why it ignores armor? I haven't seen armor piercing blessings on it if I remember well

[whole bough]

the power mode does it

i dont think it full pens but like

[trail linden]

Oh interesting

[whole bough]

it has a ton of rending or something

not really sure

[trail linden]

That's cool

I'll make some build with it later

[whole bough]

i think rending and ignore hitmass

or ignores most hitmass

[whole bough]

its very good on martyr melee

[trail linden]

Crushers

[hidden whale]

thicc

[whole bough]

zealot has perks that make them have crazy survivability

the biggest one being holy revenant/until death

i think thats the name

[trail linden]

I have those

[trail linden]

I feel so iffy about picking any of the first nodes leading up to martyr

Does relic blade have block attack worth procing

?

[whole bough]

uuuhhh

idk i rarely block with it

[trail linden]

I can imagine procing it for atk speed if it's good but otherwise not really

[modest flume]

There's a node that increases DR when down to 25% HP of that wound or something along those lines

[whole bough]

#zealot-class message

[modest flume]

If you take the time to read each node you'll know, and that is not a criticism although it may sound like it

[whole bough]

this is what i do

the top purple one is optional

but if ur martyr build why not

[trail linden]

Oh so martyr build I see

[modest flume]

No not quite, because you're not scaling off wounds

Martyr specifically scales off wounds, more missing wounds = more damage

fatmagnus just scales off of HP

[whole bough]

bleed for the emporeror yea

fatmangus martyr is what i run

which is very silly

[modest flume]

it's a fun build but not for me tbh, I'm satisfied with my boss nuking evis

[whole bough]

it was like my first build as zealot

im a mkx relic m1 spammer

[whole bough]

tho i did start using thunder hammer

[whole bough]

[whole bough]

TH with grievous wounds

mmmm bonk stick

[green vector]

highguard already shutting down LOOOOOL

[hidden whale]

seriously

[green vector]

ye

surely the next dogshit hero shooter will be a success

[hidden whale]

its not even that its a hero shooter

that game just has no identity or soul

its like a triple A slop chimera

[drowsy lynx]

sounds like it would have been better received if you did more actual shooting lol

[turbid jungle]

Otto and arora of triple A titles

[green vector]

we need a concord 2

[whole bough]

i thought it already did

[green vector]

so did everyone else

[twin flower]

speaking of games

[marsh iris]

so much hype, so little substance

[twin flower]

has anyone else have their eyes on Crimsort Desert

[fiery wave]

How many months has it ran?

[green vector]

came out in december i think?

the only time i ever heard of it was its release and its shutdown

[blazing ibex]

Fatmangus lives once more

[hidden whale]

I watched a dunkey video on it

[hidden whale]

hero shooters just arent my taste though, i was never gonna play it

apparently 2 million people actually downloaded and tried it, so it was given a fair chance I think

[oak nexus]

it was alright of a game but setup to fail. The way it announced really fucked it lol

[trail linden]

Shroud evis?

[trail linden]

Oh it's not like I didn't

I have read them all multiple times over atp

It just to me it seems zealot has more stuff that works specifically for toughness res than general resistance

[winged oasis]

What're the ways to open bulwarks

[trail linden]

Dash around them while your team is fighting in the front

[twin flower]

As a vet I throw a nade down to stagger them

[trail linden]

Or that yeah

Some classes can't do that

Unfortunately

Playing the event has been miserable experience with zealot because of bulwarks 😭

[twin flower]

Yeah, its funny how its a coop game but it sometime feels like other classes can like manage a horde of certain enemies all on their own

[frosty moss]

nade is the only way

[twin flower]

preach

[frosty moss]

[trail linden]

There are always so many of them that some just have to aggro me and it completely blocks access to the rest of them lol

[trail linden]

Psyker hordes scum ogres

[trail linden]

Actually scum can do both but is more vulnerable to disablers

[fiery wave]

Wait, 3 months lifespan? Is this Concord and that other game lvls of short?

[trail bramble]

concord was 12 days

[visual vortex]

Not long

[fiery wave]

I know there was one other with like barely a week.

[visual vortex]

This is what happens when you bring in and keep fucking concord devs

[trail bramble]

idk if they did that

[visual vortex]

If highguard and concord is what your best is with good resources then holy moly find another job

[trail bramble]

and that's kind of an absurd implication to make ngl

[visual vortex]

See i would agree there

But it was confirmed

And one of the devs used AI

Also this is the game industry

Where burning a game to the ground gets you promoted

[trail bramble]

where?

[visual vortex]

Google

And portfolio and hiring logs

Idfk what ypu want me to say

It was two or three and like two of them worked on key art and design personnel

[nocturne bloom]

Hmmm, I think ill consume alcohol tonight
