I can't draw for fu#k

#

I literally am so stupid that I've been struggling for the entire pandemic to figure out how to draw a face, and I've made actual progress

#

but I still suck, and you know what

opal bay
#

get that loomis face

smoky sand
#

That's fine because at least I can now put shapes together

#

I've made progress, I've made art of some minor value

#

I shall continue forward until I die, because there is no other choice

weary silo
#

I suppose I can only wish you to achieve your dream of drawing a face

#

During your mortal days hopefully

smoky sand
#

I have gotten better

#

I've come to realize that I'm not an intuitive person, I'm analytic

#

Due to my love of anal

#

As such I was mostly going about it the wrong way, I've found a solution and progress is picking back up

raw night
#

Art isn't my thing I'm trash. Music is my thing

#

I'm decent at that

smoky sand
#

I'm a writer naturally, I'm very good with characterization

#

but in terms of visuals my brain turns to spaghetti

raw night
#

Commonality

weary silo
#

Literally nothing remotely artistic is my thing. Any creative process I find incredibly exhausting and annoying, so I tend to avoid that as much as possible. I occasionally try to bake something but I find the entire thing to be too stressful and infuriating to do very often

smoky sand
#

I can create a character within 30 seconds and make a player in my D&D games immediately love them

#

but don't ask me to draw some boobs

#

I have a bad problem with players stealing NPC's

raw night
#

I used to draw but got bullied out of it as a kid

#

Now I'm lame at it

smoky sand
#

You just need to practice, everything is a skill

#

Some people are just better then you at something, or are luckier or just have a better base of understanding, but that doesn't mean you can't reach their level

weary silo
#

Art also involves a lot of talent tbh

smoky sand
#

It does and doesn't

#

There's two kinds of people when it comes to making shapes into things on paper, and either your intuitive or not

#

Your brain goes "put shapes, make face" or it doesn't

#

If it doesn't, then you can still do it, you just lack the understanding to access that part of your brain

#

It's sort of difficult to explain without explaining several sub-topics

#

but as long as you have like 2 functioning fingers and a thumb, you can draw

#

My friend is an actual factual big shot artist

#

She does work for Alfusa Bruva, the guy who use to make "If the Emperor had a Text to speech device"

#

And she's intuitive all the way, she paints like it's second nature

#

Couldn't explain HOW though

#

Don't fret over the little details and work on what makes you happy

weary silo
smoky sand
#

No, you've just cucked yourself

#

You perceive an inability to do something because it simply doesn't occur when you try

#

But in reality it just means you lack the understanding

#

And we're not sheep, we're humans

#

We are GREAT at understanding things

weary silo
#

Not sure an understanding is enough here

#

If I can't even visualise an image in my head, how can I hope to put it on paper?

smoky sand
#

Well I've not got full use of my hands, and I can type faster then a majority of people

#

you learn to visualize, and learn to understand shapes

#

because everything is essentially made out of the same three shapes

#

Circles, triangles and rectangles

#

Once you start to catch on to that, you start realizing how you put them together to create a basic image, and then how to work the lines into the right shape

#

An arm is just two cylinders attached to a triangle

#

You can't just learn to draw by spending a few minutes, you've gotta put in effort

#

I'll throw something halfway decent in #fan-art just pretend it's about elden ring

#

I made that a year ago, and I've actually improved since then

#

I put shapes together and made a weird monster

weary silo
#

Well, that is shapey I suppose

smoky sand
#

And I'm a moron

#

People tend to think I'm exceedingly intelligent and charismatic, but they don't get it

#

your brain is a muscle and speaking is a skill

#

You can train these things and if you have the capacity to learn, and not stop learning, you'll only improve

weary silo
#

I'm not so sure on the 1st part

smoky sand
#

Because I'm actually a doink

lament tree
#

Its less dollars but we dont use dollars so its 500 unit of our money and its very much. Minimum wage is 4000

smoky sand
#

but I can speak good and I understand complicated ideas

lament tree
#

its something like 37 dollars if you convert it but like i said dollars is very rare for us

weary silo
#

Practice talking? Where lol, in my mirror?

smoky sand
#

To people

lament tree
#

It was my dream game and i decided to buy it but after two days i decided its got more like 200 unit and my dream are gone

smoky sand
#

learn how subtext works, how people react to words and phrases and understand the general archetypes of personalities

#

I can generally figure out a person within the first five minutes of meeting them, and that's actually based on something intuitive to me

#

but in High school, I barely spoke without stuttering and lacked the ability to speak

#

There is no such thing as "I can't do (skill)" unless you have a physical limitation

weary silo
#

My train of thought isn't fast enough to be able to speak at a decent pace and with a decent vocabulary

#

And that's in my native language

smoky sand
#

I have the opposite problem

#

my brain runs too fast and it tends to form multiple trains of thought at the same time

#

which sounds very impressive, but it's not

icy rock
#

get a load of this guy

smoky sand
#

Because it's very difficult to work through a thought when your brain is going "hhmmmmm what about this thing"

#

I had to learn to force my brain to stop dithering and contain my thoughts

weary silo
#

Oh, when I speak I also get shlt mixed up

raw night
#

Music is more my thing than art but I'd still like to be able to draw

weary silo
#

Like I try to say 2 things at once basically

smoky sand
#

I'm underexplaining my problem, but it's difficult to make people understand what I mean

weary silo
#

I probably didn't phrase myself correctly

raw night
#

But not having a metric to grade my work or having people put me down or make fun of me is very off-putting

smoky sand
#

Yeah that's common amongst people, and a lot of people can have dual-thought processes for a short period of time

#

But for me, it's always like that unless I force my brain to focus

weary silo
#

It's not so much that my brain is too slow in general, it's just that it's slow at finding an appropriate word to vocalise an idea

smoky sand
#

You're bad with words, that's not anything to be ashamed of

#

Your brain has to take more time to find the correct definitions, mine does it automatically

raw night
#

Tell that to most people in my life lol

smoky sand
#

But you could learn to talk better then me

#

Or as good as me

raw night
#

Anything that isn't great, instant shame on me

smoky sand
#

That's another problem with people, we try to compare to someone else

#

As an example, I'll post something my friend has made recently

#

AHHHH links

#

remove the space, it's gorgeous

#

See, there's no value in me comparing myself to them, because I'm eternally behind them in this metaphorical race

weary silo
smoky sand
#

They will continue to improve, and I'll never reach them because they are miles ahead, so comparing is pointless

#

Hmmm

#

You've probably got an issue with internalizing something, but if you're able to speak more then one language you're not bad with it

weary silo
#

I'm not sure if you know foreign languages, but it’s a problem with them especially

smoky sand
#

I can say three things in french correctly and two of them are swears

Mental monologues in English that I constantly do are probably the only reason I can still form coherent sentences and not sound like a 10 y o

smoky sand
#

You are you, and you should only compare yourself to you

#

You are improving all the time, Milen

#

Don't worry about it so much and try to take steps to learn new words in a way thats more conductive to your thinking process

raw night
#

I don't *sound like a velvety deity
Lol

smoky sand
#

I'd recommend you look up any word you don't understand, then use it in three sentences

#

Then, do it again the day after

#

Hi 👋

smoky sand
#

Generally, LJS, I've come to realize that I was exceedingly stupid

#

I've done a lot of awful things and wasted a lot of my life by deciding I couldn't do something

#

and I was wrong

#

I can, I just need to apply effort\

#

And I've rarely met anyone who had an open mind that couldn't then learn something new

raw night
#

That's what I'm doing. Since I'm not killing myself I'm just training in things.

smoky sand
#

As long as you put a skill into practice regularly, you will improve at it

#

You might need to take more steps then someone else, but you will

#

Stagnation is the Mind-Killer

weary silo
smoky sand
#

Also, make sure to get a lot of opinions on any skill

#

Don't trust one person, get as many answers as you can find and see what works for you

raw night
#

Opinions are why I doubt my own existence in the first place

smoky sand
#

There's nothing wrong with doubt, but it should never be fully listened to

#

You have a lot of instincts in your brain that are not intended for anything we're discussing

#

You were not meant to have access to a magic device that lets you do millions of things at will

#

We were not formed with the intent to create, but we do so nonetheless

#

And as such, some of your brains natural habits are not good for you

weary silo
smoky sand
#

Risk Aversion is a powerful force on your mind

smoky sand
#

We do have a natural creative tendency, but not to this extent

#

We are overly complex monkeys who have stepped into the domain of the Gods by essential accident

#

And now, we may create things beyond anything that nature intended

#

As such, it's not a great idea to trust your brain entirely

#

That, and you need to train your brain

#

It would be very difficult to explain this topic without spending an hour explaining things like the persona and how your brain prefers certain patterns

#

and frankly my wrist is starting to make noises at me so maybe I should just say

#

You can do it

#

I believe in you

weary silo
#

Truly a wordsmith

smoky sand
#

That's what your groundhog mom said

#

gottem

weary silo
#

Brains are not something you trust

smoky sand
#

That's because we're social creatures by nature, and we love to express ourselves

weary silo
#

That's why you eat them

smoky sand
#

even the most reclusive of Introverts wants to speak

My controller broke and I don't know if it would be better to get a new one or play it keyboard and mouse. What is the better option?

untold adder

generally a controller is better to play souls games with, but if you're comfortable with m&kb then go for it

dawn plank
#

Replaying Dark Souls 3, greatsword only, Dancer of the boreal valley is generally the most frustrating boss, literally 2 taps you and your dead

untold adder
#

she's a pain if you use a slow weapon like the Greatsword

pine steppe
#

not really

limber quarry
#

Shes a pain if you fight her before vordt but thats also the only time shes challenging

#

On the intended level she doesnt have enough health

crimson spoke
#

Dancer is easy, unless it’s your first time fighting her of course

pine steppe
#

dude i hate how like the boss spends 40 seconds not attacking, so i go to use my gourd and then bam they charge me with a perilous attack

dawn plank
#

The chain attacks on the second phase where if you get hit and roll straight after you get caught in the next attack straight after, happened to me like 6 times already

crimson spoke
#

For me who has no strategy and doesn’t take the time to learn movesets, I don’t really find her difficult, any possible opening I’m gonna take

pine steppe
dawn plank
#

I mean literally every single attack of hers does insane damage, not a single attack doesn’t take less than half health

pine steppe
#

that first combo will never hit

pine steppe
limber quarry
dawn plank
pine steppe
#

then you shouldnt be having trouble with her 😭 must be a skill issue

dawn plank
#

I mean I don’t like greatswords so yeah, that’s why I’m using it, because I want to get better at it

crimson spoke
#

Ya if you save her for the end she’s a cake walk, I don’t remember when I fought her my first play through but now I go back after deacons cause I like her swords

dawn plank
#

I’m not a pro at greatswords and straight swords make the game a breeze

#

So I wanted to test myself

limber quarry
#

Pyromancies absolutely destroy her, that was when I learned you can crit her

pine steppe
#

im about to start a ng+ just to see how easy it is to kill her with a gs

limber quarry
#

Dished out so much damage so fast that got the echoy crit noise, stabbed the head amazed that you can do that

crimson spoke
#

I’ve never done a single run that requires miracles/pyromancies/hex’s/etc

#

I always do a strength and lately have been getting into pure dex

dawn plank
limber quarry
#

Ive done pretty much every build in DS3, I have pure sorcery, pure miracle, pure pyro

crimson spoke
#

I’ve occasionally specd into int/faith for specific weapons however

dawn plank
#

How’s pure miracle, is it fun early game?

limber quarry
#

Twin princes are much harder for casters than melee

pine steppe
limber quarry
#

The first miracle that deals damage is in farron keep and the first miracle that deals damage and isnt trash is in the smouldering lake

dawn plank
dawn plank
limber quarry
#

That said once you get lightning stake you can destroy most things by poise casting it

crimson spoke
#

It takes too much time to make a faith/int build good imo that’s why I’ve never successfully finished a play through of one

dawn plank
#

Your one of those players who have never struggled with any bosses right? Orphan of Kos probably took you first try? Midir aswell?

limber quarry
dawn plank
#

Proving yourself on discord ain’t it chief

pine steppe
#

never said i didnt struggle with bosses, i just said dancer is easy so stop crying bruh 😂

I wouldn’t say Midir is difficult he’s just a painfully tanky bastard

Great trailer

I'm hyped for the weapons shown

theres so much differnt music in it and all of it is great

Yeah really

I’m hyped for a new game

I just finished my 5th play through of cyber punk I need something different

#

I say just finished but I did it last week

Honestly I was hyped even if it was just dark souls with horse, so imagine with all the new stuff

The game is literally just BoTW Darksouls

And so I love it

And it will build upon what BotW lacked, good bosses

Dark souls done it right where atleast you could repair it manually or it does it automatically, but even then it was so insignificant

I never bought the dlc, it was a decent game but it’s only drawback was the weapon degradation and lack of dungeons

next to the 'Hollowing' HP reduction.
That was a curse.

jade granite
#

Well I think that was a good idea when it was introduced

#

The hp reduction

#

But in an open world no

stable parrot
# jade granite But in an open world no

I don't feel like any of the Souls Games were linear at all!
I actually considered them Open world games, I don't where people are getting this idea that they aren't.

jade granite
#

They're not in the traditional sense

untold adder
#

ds3 is pretty linear

jade granite
#

The regions are linked, but that's not what "open world game" means

limber quarry
#

But in Elden Ring youll see the difference

jade granite
#

The levels are well designed, but the path is more or less defined

stable parrot
#

I think they become 'linear', when you know where to go and what to do.
But otherwise, that first run through them, they're open in the sense, you can go everywhere you've accessed repeatedly until you find out where to go.

jade granite
#

Yeah I agree , you have many branching paths

#

But that's not an open world game in the sense of GTA or Red Dead

stable parrot
#

like okay,
So there is a 'general' boss order in the games, but that is literally it.

jade granite
#

Or Elden ring

twilit mist
#

This game has weapon durability?

jade granite
#

No

#

That's scrapped

#

Thank god

twilit mist
#

Oh good

jade granite
#

Yeah I wasn't a fan of it

stable parrot
#

linear, is more so, a game in which you travel to the point to no return.

#

like say, Resident Evil 3

#

level progression and no turning back.

limber quarry
stable parrot
#

souls games, you access the entire world at all points in time, that's pretty open in my mind.

stable parrot
#

like I'd say, DS3, by the time you reach the archives,
The game just completely opens up from there.

#

especially with the DLC's on top of it.

limber quarry
#

The archives are basically the last big area though, aside from the cnt

stable parrot
#

round about the archive time, it just feels too humongous to me to call it linear.

#

between that and the Boreal Valley.
I mean it's like... you're seeing an entire world , there's really nothing else on the outskirts anyway,
like cliffs, would be similar to open water and BS like that.

it's open world, there's just a 'path', but it's still open

limber quarry
#

There being a path that you have to take is literally the opposite of open

stable parrot
#

it's open world, just with a questline

#

if that makes sense

#

that'd be like saying,
Assassin's Creed Valhalla isn't Open World, because there is a questline.

Is the game coming out globally at the same time or based on timezones like Sekiro?

limber quarry
swift spindle
#

Because if its based on timezones imma just set my account to to australlia so I can play it early

limber quarry
stable parrot
#

just cuz it's open world, doesn't mean you can walk straight up to the final boss, you still have a path to take.

limber quarry
#

not just because a dude told you to go there

stable parrot
#

yeah I see what you're saying

#

but I say DS for the most part, by the time you are through the first few bosses, you're basically in an open world from that point on

#

like DS 3, by the time you're hitting Anor Londo, The Archives and Boreal Valley, it's all Open Field from there.

#

same thing with Sekiro,
By the time you hit the Rooftops, you're open.

#

that sounds kinda cool

hazy bloom
raw night
#

not to get ahead of the game but

#

i wonder if elden ring is gonna have any dlc

light seal
raw night
#

i think so because sekiro basically got none

#

however i think sekiro will get a sequel before the decade ends

crimson spoke
raw night
#

idk about that one

#

particularly the first 2

#

even more particularly 2

#

everything after? oh for SURE

light seal
#

2 has an enormous collection of fashion

#

I think maybe the biggest in terms of options

wraith cloak
#

scratched my eye after messing with ghost pepper sauce. 😬

#

but seeing as this is probably the thousandth time I've done it it's mostly a nuissance

pine steppe
light seal
#

quality over variety

crimson spoke
wraith cloak
#

It's some variety of daves insanity

#

got a bunch on clearance from Kroger, I imagine most kroger shoppers aren't ready to light their faces on fire.

#

when the bottle is right next to cholula and texas pete an tabasco

crimson spoke
#

Blair’s 16 Million Reserve is pure capsaicin 16 million Scoville only 999 of them were made and they go anywhere from $350-$600

pine steppe
#

the armor in ds2 was ass, quality and fashion wise

#

you were better off just running around naked

wraith cloak
#

it's like putting fire crackers and sparklers next to C4

crimson spoke
#

I’m still trying to get my hands on a bottle, whenever I do it turn out someone had already bought it

#

The bottles themselves are beautiful

wraith cloak
#

Does anyone use it or are they collectors items

pine steppe
#

i want to try flashbang seems interesting

crimson spoke
#

I can dm you a picture if you’d like

pine steppe
crimson spoke
pine steppe
#

there would be nothing to buy

wraith cloak
#

I feel like at a certain heat level they're not sauces they're just chemistry supplies

crimson spoke
#

It literally is, it’s not a sauce, it the capsaicin crystals

pine steppe
#

yes and it would be going straight into the dirt

crimson spoke
#

What a waste

#

Not even gonna try it, coward

pine steppe
#

nope gonna record me smushing it into the dirt and post it everywhere

crimson spoke
#

I’ll pay double what you bought it for?

pine steppe
#

preferably gonna post it on r/hotsauce

fluid spire
#

rt 5700, 32ram and ryzen 7 3800 should be more than enough right

pine steppe
crimson spoke
#

Can you atleast send me the crystals? Lol

fluid spire
#

are you talking bout meth? lmao

pine steppe
#

as ive said, im gonna RECORD myself THROWING away the entire thing, and i mean the entire thing, even gonna shatter the bottle

Wish Elden Ring's staff/wand had a basic long range spell attack that didn't consume FP.
Can't go full mage in Souls games without using a melee weapon because of it.

The overview trailer BLEW MY MIND

It showed a bit of everything and even more

I’m so pumped

ONE THING

I hope it’s not as easy as the network test

Some bosses literally died in a few hits

icy kernel
past wraith
icy kernel
#

yeah that too

past wraith

I’m so excited the time is so close

raw night
#

they did some adjusting so im not worried

past wraith
#

Imagine if they delayed it again

raw night
#

i'd cry

icy kernel
#

it crazy how cnt was just like 1/3rd of the whole map only

raw night
#

not even 1/3rd

icy kernel
past wraith
#

Was it like 1/12th of the whole game?

raw night
#

less than 1/3rd of just that part of the map which is WILD

icy kernel
#

they should have kept it with strength

raw night
past wraith
#

Strength makes more sense to me

raw night
#

no point in being strong if you cant last long in your own armor

past wraith
#

Hmm

icy kernel
raw night
#

big brain stat move

past wraith
#

But if you’re strong you have more endurance

icy kernel
#

and hence need more equip load

raw night
#

can you endure the weight of your armor?

past wraith
#

What class you guys going for

icy kernel
raw night
#

starting as a wretch so idk

icy kernel
#

first class

past wraith
#

I’m debating prophet

raw night
#

the strength to *put it on

past wraith
#

Or astro

raw night
#

Samurai on my second playthrough

#

or vagabon

#

d

past wraith
#

Vaga is a quality build

icy kernel
#

the thing is most of people invest points more in str and less in end tbh... i mean yeah once they reach cap of str and vigor next is end sure

raw night
#

Im not most people then lol

#

strength is boring half the time

icy kernel
#

maybe u are more of a dex player so

raw night
#

im more of a mixed bag

#

get bored rather quick of "big hammer/sword go boom"

icy kernel
#

i have been a str player like for all the previous souls games

raw night
#

eh, i've dabbled in all builds

icy kernel
raw night
#

if i ever do str i have to do fth or int with it

#

just str is so

#

so

#

dull

icy kernel
#

ri8 at the beginning im gonna start pouring points in int first

#

since vagabond only has 9

past wraith

When I was a small noob man I use to always make melee builds and never use magic .. but then like I decided to try more stuff and I did not regret it at all

past wraith

They got guns in the game?

Yup yup

It's as good as demon souls

ivory saffron

blissful parcel
#

Elden Ring is due to finally release for PC, Xbox Series X|S, PS5, and PS4 on February 25. The console release timing is set for midnight, 00:00 AM in all timezones

ivory saffron
#

oh im on steam

#

it says feb 24th for me but im in EST, wasn't sure if it was gonna be 10pm the night before, like cyberpunk was

ivory saffron
#

eh

#

it was enjoyable on pc, still dissapointing in some aspects though

meager ore
#

it was trash

ivory saffron
blissful parcel
#

yea y does it says 24th on steam

ivory saffron
#

no idea thats why i was asking if anyone has confirmation

#

hopefully its 10pm est

blissful parcel
#

yea

ivory saffron
#

steam has never done a release where it unlocks at midnight for every time zone i dont think

#

that seems ridiculous

blissful parcel
#

yea

#

so it releases the 25th at 12 am

#

so right as the day changes

ivory saffron
#

what timezone

blissful parcel
#

all timezones

ivory saffron
#

on steam?

ivory saffron
#

it wont do that

blissful parcel
#

idk then

ivory saffron
#

people can probably just set their consoles to different timezones

#

so dumb

blissful parcel
#

the console release time is 12 am all timezones sorry

#

idk bout steam

vivid root
lean parcel
#

Not surprising haha

vivid root
#

a streamer asked someone off-screen where he has to go

lean parcel
#

I didn't watch it btw

vivid root
#

and has a bunch of papers im assuming to be the map

lean parcel
#

Oh

#

Was it a fun stream?

vivid root
#

well its just them going around without anything major

#

guess if its scripted in the first place, not really much scope for any unintended spoilers

#

im still only halfway through it, so gotta see

icy kernel
vivid root
#

am watching his segment

icy kernel
#

yeah.. im watching the last remaning one hour only coz at that time i went to sleep

vivid root
#

and yeah, the two others ive seen weren't that goodd

#

im skipping most if it since its just them going around and getting clobbered

icy kernel
vivid root
#

lol yeah

blissful parcel
#

@vivid root what class u going

vivid root
#

wretch man

#

i just cant choose btw all the cool classes

#

but damn

#

wretch is seriously fuced, from what i've seen in the stream

#

@blissful parcel , you gonna go Confessor ryt

#

thats one of the coolest looking classes for me

blissful parcel
#

i am

shell hare
#

im playing through sekiro for the first time

#

Divine Dragon is one of the coolest boss fights

vivid root
#

the bg music is cool too

shell hare
#

yeah

blissful parcel
#

elden ring music is op

shell hare
#

im going for the true ending

#

the second owl was a pain

vivid root
#

@blissful parcel Confessor gameplay looks so damn good

shell hare
#

oh there's gameplay of the new classes too? i need to check that out

vivid root
#

not all of them

#

Hero, Prisoner, Vagabond, Confessor and Samurai

shell hare
#

sweet. have you decided on your class?

vivid root
#

so Wretch

shell hare
#

loool

vivid root
#

and I'm gonna be repeatedly clobbered from what i've seen from the stream

shell hare
#

i want to do a hybrid

#

so i have versatility

vivid root
#

yeah

#

hero is all in on strength

shell hare
#

the spells and incantations both look cool, so idk what to decide on, warrior + spells, or warrior + incants

vivid root
#

and damn is it blazing thru enemies

#

exactly

shell hare
#

yea strength is gonna be even better in this game, with the equip load thing

vivid root
#

confessor dual-wielding is OP

#

and that cloak is just....

#

SO

#

COOL

blissful parcel
#

rlly

#

what makes the combo good

stark crane
#

confessor is noob class because it’s too OP

vivid root
#

lol

#

just two swords and the dude is mowing thru enemies

#

well not to that extent, but he still has it pretty easy

stark crane
#

it’s like twin blades dex+sharp gem build in ds3

#

like it’s player modulated to be on easy mode

vivid root
#

maybe maybe not

#

no matter what build i go, am getting the confessor cloak for sure

blissful parcel
#

buyt camt i just dual wield with any class

#

wjat makes it with confessor so special

dusty sorrel

hello

austere fox
#

im kinda dumb, do you know where i could post my pc specs to see if they are ok for the game

blissful parcel
#

i love it

bold skiff
#

As someone who never played any of the Dark souls, how hard is this game gonna be? Lol I heard so many things and I'm hyped but scared

icy kernel
#

it checks ur system to see how can it perform for that particular game

dusty sorrel
austere fox
#

ok thank youuu

dusty sorrel
blissful parcel
#

I haven’t either

#

Only sekiro

dusty sorrel
#

the biggest thing you can do is get immersed in the game systems, pay attention to what people tell you and who they are

#

it actually matters

bold skiff
dusty sorrel
#

if someone says something that perks your ear, it means something somewhere in the game

#

and do NOT skip these interactions!!

#

thats why i say get immersed, really take your time and it wont be as hard

#

if you go running around like a lost deer* ignoring everyone itll be hell

bold skiff
#

I'll definitely keep that in mind!

icy kernel
#

and dont rush

#

take ur time to undertand the game mechanics

dusty sorrel
#

^ really the best way to play, if somethings to hard, go explore and get lost in something else

icy kernel
austere fox
#

uh oh

dusty sorrel
austere fox
#

it says my cpu isnt good enough

#

i ran sekiro well tho

bold skiff
blissful parcel
#

Sekiro isn’t demanding though

icy kernel

Hello. I'm looking for someone who'd be down to chat and become friends. Looking for somebody who is 18-22 years old, speaks fluent English, and is in the EST time zone. I would prefer someone who is talkative for the most part. It helps me open up if the other person takes initiative.

I'm 19 years old, and my favorite game is Sekiro. Please DM me if you're interested. I'd also be interested in playing co-op together.

um just glad that my 1060 has been such a great gpu over these years.. has handled almost 95% of AAA titles on high settings

#

love my 1060 🙌

shell hare
#

i doubt you could run the game

blissful parcel
#

How

blissful parcel
#

Cause minimum is better than his

austere fox
#

upgrade it*

#

i have gaming laptop btw

blissful parcel
#

Yea u ain’t running the game

shell hare
#

@rare horizon your card is like, around last gen console gpu so, probably low settings

blissful parcel
#

U gotta get it in console or upgrade

austere fox
austere fox
icy kernel
#

i think the prices have dropped ri8 now

shell hare
#

you cant upgrade gaming laptops, other than some have an extra ram slot or something. youll need to get a better pc or console @austere fox

dusty sorrel
icy kernel
#

oh he has a laptop

dusty sorrel
#

i didnt even see specs but your only option would be SSD and idk how much would help

icy kernel
#

my bad

dusty sorrel
#

cheapest SSD will run you like 350$

icy kernel
#

he must be havinv 8gb ram ri8?

shell hare
#

so, the other option for people who cant run it is, get the pro version of the last gen consoles, so PS4 Pro, or an Xbox One X. Probably can score one for cheaper somewhere

dusty sorrel
#

can you even put more ram on one of those laptops? Yee it would literally be cheaper to get the game and a ps4

rare horizon
#

it says r NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 i have a 1660 someything super isnt that better?

icy kernel
shell hare
#

the ram wouldnt really do anything for his pc, his specs are too low. but some laptops have minor upgradable options

#

i think super is slightly worse than a 1070, but you can still run it

rare horizon
#

oh man

austere fox
#

we are getting my old pc fixed soon so maybe that will run it

#

idk

2gb gpu is the VRAM, no? either way he has 16gb of RAM so he's fine

austere fox

A 2060 had 6 gb of V RAM

proud zephyr
shell hare
#

yes you can

rare horizon
#

what is V RAM

icy kernel
shell hare
#

it's about the same as a pro console's gpu (ps4 pro for example)

rare horizon
proud zephyr
#

I have the ryzen 5 3600 and it's overclocked so i should be good on that respect

shell hare
#

it's ram, but specifically for the video card

#

so like, it is set aside to handle just graphic stuff

icy kernel
blissful parcel
#

Ensure even and smooth execution of the graphics

#

So the more VRAM

#

The better

ohhh

yeah you have no worries Xergiok

no matter how many patches u release 😂

i have beaten the game twice

it will be online, dw

i think its going to be a separate thing to download for those who pro ordered it

people will copy and paste it everywhere

#

it's the internet

blissful parcel
#

Yes

icy kernel
#

also the gesture becomes available ri8 in the starting area after character creation

blissful parcel
#

So if u don’t pre order u aren’t getting an emote

#

Yep

#

So what’s the point

shell hare
#

you can still get the emote in game normally

icy kernel
#

gesture can be obtained later

blissful parcel
#

There are sales for pre orders rn though

#

That’s why I would

vivid root
#

you can get the pre order emote after the game releases

icy kernel
#

they said that if u co op with a player who pre ordered it u can get that gesture

vivid root
#

by playing coop with a player who has it

icy kernel
#

its not that imp tbh

#

guide book is the only good usefull thing

vivid root

yup
