    Yeah, definitely not trying to put the normal attention to detail on this. Good call on the drywall screws. I was also considering using some kind of bracing piece in the 4 inside corners and then using lag bolts to pull it all together and make it easier to disassemble if needed(it's going to...

    So I'm getting ready to build a terrarium for the kids, for a bearded dragon. After doing some research, I've settled on Melamine as the main component for the box(along with some sort of glass doors that open on the front). I am loath to work with particle board/melamine, but it's plastic...

    I'm still blown away by the stuff I'm reading/watching that I completely missed even after 140+ hours. There's just...so much stuff.

    Went back to your post and made those tweaks and it seems to be running perfect now. Nice! Now I got to find that ultrawide hack.

    Nice grab! Yeah, the Collector Editions for this game were going to be valuable regardless, but now with how successful it's become, they are definitely even more coveted. I really wanted the special Bandai edition they were doing, but I'm not up for competing with all the scalpers and bots to...

    Before I got the confirmed Malenia kill, I had a round where I died right as she died but didn't get credit because she babbles for like 15 seconds after dying and it delays the 'kill credit'. Really glad I don't have to fight her again today.

    Yeah, a boss rush mode would be really cool. Maybe I'll do 2nd playthrough on the PC version. Have they fixed that damn hitching/stuttering some people(including me) were getting, I wonder...

    Eventually you get git gud....and just run past all that shit on your 15th failure.

    Malenia dead. Plat Trophy achieved. I just needed a good night's rest.* This might be my favorite game of all time. I need to let the newness wear off for a few months before really committing to that ranking, but it's easily in my top 3 games at this point. I put around 140 hours into my first...

    I have to actually go into the office today, so no Melania attempt until this evening. I'm at about 20 tries. All I need for the plat trophy...that fucking whore.

    Just got Malenia down to like 5% health in 2nd phase and died. If I hear "I am Malenia, Blade of Miquella" one more time...

    Well I beat the game. Did all the endings. I now only need Malenia or the Platinum trophy. Isn't happening tonight. I've got her phase 1 down easy, but I'm getting absolutely rocked in the second phase. Hopefully beat her tomorrow.

    Man, you guys were not kidding about the difficulty increase at the end of the game. It really lulls you into a false sense of security before Farum Azula and Haligtree. I'm paying for all my lazy habits in the earlier game.

    I'm so fucking blown away by how much content there was in the base game, especially after DS3 and Sekiro not really being that old so it's not like they were working on this game for 10 years. Anyway, I wouldn't be surprised if these crazy Japanese bastards don't already have a 40 hour DLC...

    Haligtree sucks. This is like Kelethin 1999 all over again.

    Oh yeah, I did give him that key. Shit...is there more to that guy? Don't think I've seen him since then.

    Locked chest is for Ranni the Witch's quest, I think. I got the key to that quite a bit later after beating Renalla. As for the other key, I think it's a dupe as well. Not sure why, though. Maybe there's another way into the academy other than getting key behind dragon?

    Should I do Farum Azula or Haligtree first? Does it matter?

    Yeah, a fair point. I'm currently at 40str/dex and 50fai.

    Blashphemous Blade is what I'm using. STR/FAI Greatsword with an absolutely awesome L2 attack and it heals you with every kill.

    I think I'm near the end. I killed Fire Giant* last night, but haven't spoken to Milena at the grace point there yet. I think that's the part that leads to the final fight yes? So I just have that and Haligtree to still do. I've putzed around in Haligtree and between the fog and the enemies, I'm...

    Are there any missable trophies/achievements on the first run? I'm not sure I'll do any NG+ and would like to get the Platinum if possible on the first run.

    Yup, that horse's ability to dash the fuck out of there makes all the difference in those outside fights.

    It's like putting a jet engine in the back of a Dodge and bragging that you beat a bunch of stock cars. Nobody think you're really the winner, but the idea and making of the jet engine car is still cool and interesting. EDIT: It's also a lot easier to watch a 28 minute video versus the movie...

    Wakandan, wtf are you talking about? I don't "feel off". I just think it's cool they have already gotten speed running under 30 minutes on the game that I'm spending so much time in and enjoying. Everything is ok.
