    The Dangers of Gaming with Women

    It's more that I've made no effort whatsoever to find a GF in the past couple of years, and don't get out much which prevents meeting one by accident. Funny joke though. I probably won't be trying to get a future GF into games unless she volunteers. At this point I'm at a place where I want the...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Malenia is going to win this whole thing if the fights are one-on-one. Her HP absorption is insurmountable. It's possible, though unlikely, that Maliketh or the final boss could pull an upset with her given their huge damage output. Other than that, there's no way she's losing, which kinda...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Yeah I also went into postpartum game depression after I got the plat in ER. Played a few other things, mainly for the Backlog Challenges we were doing, but nothing was the same anymore. Finally just did a second ER platinum and that actually got me out of my funk (possibly by making me sick of...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    You could do that in Code Vein too. Here's a video of that game's Ornstein and Smough getting burst-DPSed into oblivion. Personally I try to avoid doing stuff like this in these games because you're only shortchanging yourself by gimping boss fights. However if a fight gives me enough grief...

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    Could be an imposter, like the Fake Rajaah on Yelinak. It's important to make sure you get your name on any new TLP that drops if you're a regular on the boards or in top guilds. Especially prominent guild-leaders, they seem to get their names jacked more than anybody.

    For anyone asking about C1, C2, etc... just get the C1. Or even the CX if you see it particularly lower than the C1. I got a 65'' C1 last year when it was right off the presses, and already it's going for half of what I paid for it. There's really no need to be at the forefront of a "cutting...

    Whoa. Saga Frontier 2? That's one of several PSX RPGs I missed out on and was planning to get eventually. Glad we're getting a remaster. Tons of people didn't play SF2 and from what I've heard it was a really good game.

    Demon’s Souls Remake (PS5)

    That's an idea, I think I did that when I got the initial plat. Miralda fell off a cliff both times I fought her. (Reset the game save to revert World 1 afterwards). I'm back to having all worlds in PW, gonna have to go the invasion route.

    Demon’s Souls Remake (PS5)

    Lul, with PBWT and PBCT, Satsuki just one-shotted me every time. So I'd duck and dodge and hit him when I could...and he'd just eventually heal. One time I got him to like his fifth full heal. I guess in this game enemy phantoms don't have limited heals like in other From games. Tried doing a...

    Demon’s Souls Remake (PS5)

    Cool. I don't spose there's any way to respawn these phantoms? I can turn World 1 and 4 to dark with the stones I have and then beat Miranda and Sasuki, but IDK if that'll be enough. Also 1-4 might be a little tougher but whatever, I usually sprint through there anyway.

    Demon’s Souls Remake (PS5)

    145 or so IIRC. I kept every world specifically out of PBWT. They're all either neutral or PW. I could blow a few Ephemeral Eye stones (have about 15) dying in one of the neutral ones to make black phantoms spawn. What's a good world to do this? Preferably 1, 2, or 4 since I beat those. Don't...

    Pure Black Character Tendency is pretty awful, I gotta say. I was hoping to kill a few invaders to reverse it, but nobody is playing. I assume I have this because I got the Foe Ring last in the platinum run, and it carries over. Ouch. Gotta say, it's really messing up my enjoyment of this...

    Yeah, it's still easy to catch up on Vaniki. 3 weeks from now when they drop level 60 and like four expansions, it'll get much harder to catch up. Though still probably not too bad. The main catch-up mechanic on Vaniki that could be a problem is PoP flags. Seems like nearly everything has been...

    Thor: Love and Thunder (2021)

    That's how I felt after seeing the Jay and Silent Bob Reboot. It has like a 90% audience rating and I can't understand why. It was such a slog to sit through. It isn't like these movies are made for Scorcese. In 10-20 years when we live in Full Idiocracy, these Marvel movies are gonna be on...

    Thor: Love and Thunder (2021)

    Am I understanding right that the other big non-Thanos scenarios/villains in Marvel are: Secret Wars/Dr. Doom Kang the Conqueror Galactus ? F4's placement makes me think Dr. Doom is on the way, but also we know Kang is on the way... maybe P5 will have both of them as antagonists? It's also...

    Thor: Love and Thunder (2021)

    If P4 was gonna end with an ensemble movie with a big villain, Gorr would have been a solid choice. Especially if this movie had actually shown him, ya know, God-Butchering. I think the phase should have something like that as a cap even if it wasn't Avengers (don't think we'll see another...

    Thor: Love and Thunder (2021)

    My #1 problem with Marvel movies is how they can never let any moments have any emotional weight. Something tragic happens or you have a moment between characters where they're sharing their struggles or whatever the case may be, and then two seconds later HOLD ON TIME FOR A JOKE GAG. It's...

    Good point. Between vet rewards and MOTM dropping, Sol Ro would be way easier on unlock day than before that. Mithaniel Marr at 55 without substantial gearing up first...is like standing in front of a speeding bus. Sol Ro ain't happening yet. Assuming we're getting Luclin AAs autogranted, I...

    What trophies do you have left? Yeah, my character does have the pure black icon. I forgot to mention that in the post. I kept all the worlds in PW or neutral so as not to F myself over. You really do not want worlds in PB because the difficulty goes through the roof. Never paid much...

    Pugs on Vaniki have been surprisingly good. I think with Yelinak you're getting way more of the casual zerg rush crowd who can barely play. Hmm, sounds like if there are any targets we can't down at 55, we can just down them right after the next unlock. Like after they lose MOTM but before we...

    There's also Deepest Guk: Curse Reborn for 55. I'm interested to see how these four raids go, and which of them is the toughest. I'd think Sol Ro would be the furthest-along in overall progression tiers, but CBQ hits hard and Emp is Emp. As far as getting together raid forces after the fact, I...

    In 1998/1999 I co-played Xenogears with like six friends of mine and I think it might have been the last time I did something like that with my teenage friend group. Then there was also Suikoden 2, Chrono Cross, and FFIX but if I remember right, the group participation dwindled with each one...

    Yeah, there's that component of the whole thing. BR raids a LOT. I haven't been able to keep up at all because I play about 2 evenings a week if even that much, but I'm also not too worried about it. The gear-flation rate on this server means it'll be easy enough to catch up on gear in VT or...

    It isn't. Took us 4 hours to do 41-50, 2 hours to do 50-55 (with a bonus) and I got about 24 AAs in another 4 hours or so in GoD Sewers. Can't remember how long 1-40 took but I'm pretty sure most of us here did it in one day. In other words, at least on the exp front, you're looking at like one...

    I'd say Xenosaga was already on death's door before Episode 2 totally sucked. The sales of XS2 went off a cliff compared to XS1, even at launch.

    Good, time for games to stop being held back by PS4's tech. Bad enough that Elden Ring had to take some visual hits so that it'd also work on a PS4. I love Crisis Core, so in a way I'm actually more excited about getting that this winter than FF7R-2. When are we gonna start seeing games...

    Under. Also it wasn't a ranking, it was a difficulty list. It was also ascending order so I actually had Demons at the bottom of the list. I guess how I did it looks kind of confusing.

    Demon Souls Remake is probably the easiest version of any of the seven modern From games besides Elden Ring, and I'd say it's easier than ER. It's also the shortest of the bunch...I think. It's worth a run. Probably the most gorgeous-looking video game I've ever played. Couple things to keep in...
