    I had thought it was crypto miners that fucked the market. But then I realized that I have never ran into a component shortage wall in my 23 or so years of PC gaming. Not a single time did I struggle to find a GPU until now. Same goes for PS5. While I never cared about getting one on release, I...

    I have half a mind to just suck it up and pay a scalper here eventually. While I refuse to do this for a PS5 (as I really really dont need a PS5) my main source of entertainment is my PC and my 2070 Super is half of what a 3080 ti can do.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Seriously. Nearly ALL Dark Souls or Sekiro bosses have some gimmick. If you find out what it is you can trivialize the boss. Normally the game will give you hints as to what it is. Just some examples: Darkbeast Paarl in BB -> Hit its legs and it gets stunned (also weak to beast+ damage from...

    Thundamoo (Viga Mortis) Says this is real good. https://ceruleanscrawling.wordpress.com/summus-proelium-table-of-contents/ Kid finds out his parents are superhoes as well as being supervillains to double down on grifting or something. I'll read it. This site is godawful though.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    You can parry the arrows from Genichiro, or you can just run ahead of them IIRC. So it'd be like parry the arrows then run up to him and whack him a few times. Then he'd do a series of several attacks followed by a Red Flash attack. So you wanted to deflect the 3 blows then to a Michi Counter or...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    I died to Ishin Ashina a lot. The fight being 4 phases like some anime bullshit just makes it such a slog... one where you can't fuck very much. The Samurai Duel in the middle of the storm as an aesthetic was super badass though. I don't remember struggling against Genichiro too much. But the...

    He went from pulling like $8k a month to $1300 a month despite doing nothing for a solid half year. I really liked Magic Smithing but a lot of these authors are such whiney bitches about everything.

    So you didn't get past Genichiro and fight the Gorila, Ishin Ashina and so on? Ishin Ashina is simultaneously the most badass and most bullshit Fromsoft boss fight ever lol.

    The verticality of Sekiro really did a lot to make the game seem easier and more open.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Definitely. The open world nature of this game will make shortcuts and skippable bosses a lot more clear. Along with the ability to escape. New players will be much more inclined to enjoy it. It's going to be Breath of the Wild but with harder bossfights.

    Many bosses are also skippable in DS games. People don't recognize that either.

    I died to Vicar Amelia probably 40 times. No joke. But I one shot the Blood Starved Beast that @Soygen got his shit pushed in by 40 times. Your mileage varies!

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    I would disagree. I never played Souls until Bloodborne where I spent upwards of 15 hours in the Central Yharnam area getting my ass handed to me. I rage quit several times. Came back to the game a few months later and seemed to have digested what the game was about. The game is poor about...

    As I recall, not only did investors lay their own wire from the West Coast to Wall Street (that was shorter than all the other commercial connections) they also built their trading servers right next to Wall Streets servers. Like physically in the same room. Nobody realized this was an issue...

    Pretty sure that's the textualized way a bunch of pointless emojis are expressed when whatever interface can't load them. It never made sense in the first place which is why it's confusing reading it.

    Okay so I finally devoted a ton of time to this game and completed it. Hands down it is superior to Kingmaker. However I appreciated the wandering group of adventurer setting a la Kingmaker more than the you're on this campaign against the Abyss Demons in WOTR. I am putting WOTR on my GOAT...

    The history of that was that, originally, the US essentially denied all the wealthy Hong Kongers from emigrating to the USA. Fearing communism or something. British Columbia said fuck yeah and Vancouver, BC was Hong Konger land overnight. Later getting the rich mainlander Chinese too and 20 or...

    Also these in the 90s... Although I never remembered there being like variety packs. They all had the same packaging and I don't think it was any of these ones. It may have had a horse on it but not the ones on here.

    Is there a single person in here who didn't try to snort one of these as a child? Usually because a friend's older sibling convinced you it was a good idea. I think I may have been like 9 years old.

    Just had a big shakeup at my company. The CEO, COO, and some other executives including my VP and the senior finance director are all on their way out.

    Yes this has been going on a long time. But you go and try and buy a house in Japan without at least being married to a Japanese or owning a business that operates there legally. In China you straight up can't. Non-citizens even on long term work visa can't even buy train tickets online.
