    Yeah I did it last summer/fall I think. I also had zero tradeskills, PoP progression and other quest when I did it. The PoP progression was the toughest part. For about a month I'd log in every morning at 6AM and throughout the day to make the rounds of all the mobs. I recently completed the...

    I think the best anti-piracy measure is delivering compelling online features. Integrating co-op in Shadow of War would be a lot of fun. You could just have co-op events out in the world that would connect you with another player to take on a particularly tough event. I haven't done the...

    Though I've respected the dedication and focus of it, I've always found dudes who looked like this to be a little gross. But recently I've really appreciated the workout vids done by people who have this kind of look, because it really helps to understand what the muscles being engaged look like...

    Is Act4 also modified by your difficulty settings? If so it seems like it's especially useless to get loot boxes. What are you primarily doing in Act4? Is it working to build up your army, which I found kind of boring in shadow of mordor?

    I've played for a couple hours and the game is no joke on nemesis so far. There's fucking orcs everywhere and you can't swing a broken sword without hitting a captain. I ran out of useful attacks on a shield-captain last night so I unleashed a caragor who proceeded to 2v1 me with the captain...

    I'm just trying shit out. +500 over TDEE is pretty textbook, and I'd rather try out textbook stuff before trying out more exotic things like a fairly extreme cyclical ketogenic approach.

    All bullshit aside my rough plan is to try my +500 over TDEE for a month or two and see where I am. I can definitely see myself trying another form of intermittent fasting / cyclical keto like Wurst did. I'm not even a week away from breaking away from keto and already miss it.

    You should follow @Ossoi's advice exactly, and in a few months we can have a 100% scientific comparison of what happens when two fatties do two different exercise approaches. You with trying to gain muscle while eating at a deficit or near deficit, and me trying to bulk then cut.

    @Ossoi can we get a top ten fast food meals for cutting? A few times on keto I had McDonald's grilled chicken with their guacamole, no cheese and no bun, it was pretty good if salty.

    You can do the basic two part process that I'm doing, which basically consists of: 1. Lifting a bunch of weights and eating a bunch of food for some number of months (bulk) 2. After some number of months, reduce food intake to a caloric deficit (cut). It's fall, so it's the perfect time for a...

    If only there was a way to combine MTX and QTE together. Maybe an orc themed credit card scanner that, if you're quick enough, can be used to save you from death when on-screen notifications happen.

    Max rendering option is 8192x5120. I think only some Samsung prototype phone can render at that, but it really shows you how advanced the game is.

    Wow, the difficulty is really innovative in this game. Instead of rendering on my primary monitor it's on my left portrait monitor. It's tough controlling Aragorn while craning my neck and having a low horizontal field of view, but conquering the challenge is really satisfying. a+++ game
