    Demon’s Souls Remake (PS5)

    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...

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    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...

    Thor: Love and Thunder (2021)

    You're taking me way too literally. Fat Thor wasn't a cuck because he was fat, but he was certainly cucked.

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    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...

    I like how laid-back he is about the whole thing, while all the usual journalists and British Wrestling Youtubers are tripping over themselves to virtue signal and pass judgment.

    Demon’s Souls Remake (PS5)

    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...

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    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...

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    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...

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    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. I was knee-deep in the fan discussion of the series at the time and saw firsthand how people's enthusiasm for the Xenosaga series pretty much croaked...

    Demon’s Souls Remake (PS5)

    Playing NG++ and I'm getting absolutely trucked by everything. 50 Vitality and I get one-shotted pretty regularly, especially by bosses. If I'm lucky bosses will only take off 90% instead of 100%. It's nuts. Any suggestions on how to mitigate this? Just beef up Vitality more? At level 140 it...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    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...

    Ayo hold up. Yasunori Mitsuda? He's only the greatest game music composer of all time. I think he did some of Xenoblade 2's music, as well as Xenosaga 1, Xenogears, the Chrono games, Shadow Hearts Covenant... all freaking incredible OSTs. Trying to remember what else he's done as far as big name...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    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. Demons Remake is the easiest, Sekiro is the hardest, least for me. I've played the first few hours or so now...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    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...

    You mean Malenia on the last one? RoB totally wastes her, for sure. I never used the Sleep status in this game, kind of curious as to how well it works. I had trouble with exactly 3 fights on each of my 3 playthroughs...but different ones every time: 1st Run (PS5 NG) 3. Radahn 2. Malenia 1...

    Total Recall (1990)

    Yeah the Hulkster was billed at 6'8'' at one point I believe. Look at him next to Scott Hall and Kevin Nash. Hall was 6'6'' and Nash was 6'10''. Hogan was about halfway between them. 30 back surgeries later and his spine is literally shorter, he's shrunken in comparison to his old self. It's...

    I've been to Planet Hollywood in NYC and they have a wall of handprints there from different celebrities. My hand is the same exact size as Arnold's. I'm an extremely average-sized American male, 5'10'' 180 or so. So I was pretty shocked when Arnold's hand wasn't bigger than mine. Know who's...

    Don't know how true it is, but I've read that women are mainly attracted to big masculine muscle-physiques when they're ovulating. So for a few days once a month they're into that kind of look. When they're not ovulating, they're more likely to be attracted to men with more slight builds, guys...

    Total Recall (1990)

    Yeah, but I assume a lot of other things were edited out. Also only saw the TV versions of Pulp Fiction and Predator for a long time as a kid. They completely removed The Gimp from the TV version of PF, and all of the swears were dubbed over. "Motherfucker" became "My Brother" etc. As a result...

    Anyone know what happened to Scarlet Vengeance on The Rathe? They were #1 on the server for a while on the leaderboards, then poofed for the current expansion. Looks like Phoenix Rises (formerly Clan Ta'Veren, plus some Loyal Rebellion) is #1 again on the server? The Silent Minority hasn't...

    Man, I 'member Ancient Scourge. IIRC the first people to solo Velious dragons (the weaker ones in West Wastes) were Shamans using that spell in conjunction with slow and Torpor to just outlast their opponent. Thought about farming some Circlets of Shadow while they're still valuable on Vaniki...

    I've never lost a one-on-one DPS race as a Shadowknight, but I also have never been up against a pro pipe-hitter in those scenarios (usually because I'm on the same side as the pro pipe-hitters, and dealing with some other guild). Even when Harm Touch is down, Unholy Aura = win against the...

    So is it safe to say that it's a lot safer to sell an account if you first make sure the account has a burner phone number and burner email address? What about debit card usage (i.e. buying exp pots)? I never sold that spare Vaniki account (which is now going to sit unplayed with a max level...

    Yeah, I've had a ton of fun with shaman/necro EBolting in the past. Shamans also get Plague before 50, so they can double up their own DoT. Even Venom of the Snake and Scourge are good enough to easily KS most mobs in the 30-45 range. I guess the cat's outta the bag now that it's being...

    Nope, it's just that empty. Switched over to Demon's Souls Remake and kept getting invaded by the same person in 1-1 over and over again. At least there was an actual sign of life in that one. The guy was probably sitting around waiting for hours for someone else to actually log on to ambush.
