About ten years ago I was enrolled in the game design program at Full Sail University in Orlando for one semester. It didn't pan out (game coding is too esoteric for me and I figured that out fast) but I did gain a lot of video-making skills from working with their high-powered laptop...

Well this is gonna look amazing on the PS5 Pro. Story, and also the visuals are usually top shelf, "best in class" type of visuals for their era. Metro: Last Light on the PS3 was a rare 1080p game and looked like it was from the future / a different console generation. Basically a PS3.5 game...

Enemy placement in DS2 was really bad compared to the others, yes. Can't remember how it was in vanilla DS2. Since I played Scholar first on PS4, then went back and played vanilla on PS3, as I do with Fromsoft. Which reminds me, is it worth playing much of the original Oblivion now that...

Wild how many people suddenly care about this dude, when those of us (on here) that were talking about him five years ago were called "kooky conspiracy nuts" regularly by the same normies. Now he's everywhere!

Just realized that Rom was an intentional boss name to throw off internet searches for "Bloodborne ROM", just like naming the Elden Ring horse "Torrent"...

The comments on this thread really are hilarious, people are letting this wokescold have it pretty hard: The funniest part is the Koreans probably did do it on purpose, Koreans don't give a fuck.

Wot? That's literally what I'm saying in the statement at the end. That I prefer a short game with soul over a long game with a ton of content....and this seems like the latter, based on the thread. And the EQ thing is largely based on... so many people in this thread mentioning EQ and that...

Friend of mine tried Bloodborne for the first time and beat Cleric Beast on the first try, at whatever the default level is. Only other From game he played is Elden Ring, which he played for like 150 hours, so that's probably why. He was like "I thought Bloodborne was supposed to be super hard"...

Even though he's a woke busybody looking for things to get "concerned" about, that Jaffe guy is kind of not wrong to make the observation that that's an on the nose depiction of a stereotype. Is it an intentional one or not is the question. Is he an anti-semite for noticing this? If someone...

Yeah man. There was a time when I would have been really down for this. It sounds like a single-player EQ, which is exciting, and I'm still going to give it a try in a week once my vacation starts. But I'll say this, I'm mostly playing it to see how insane the visuals are on my new PS5 Pro and...

The crazy dental office woman redux. Was waiting for him to get to the "yes daddy" part, and the live chat didn't disappoint

Maybe I'll do that. Should have asked this sooner instead of posting a whine about it right after the deadline. Then again, doing things in a timely and expeditious manner isn't exactly my strong point nowadays is it? I seriously grappled with this for hours and hours, and put my hands up at...

@Koushirou This is true Do it, weed him out if he can't handle it. If he's from NYC, holy shit, good luck.

Did a lot of Uber the past several years to make ends meet (quite lucrative around a metropolitan area, it turns out). Got a big ol' 1099-K for it. Have to process it myself this year, where previously I had other people do it for me. Trying to put this in on Freetaxusa which I used in the...

My first girlfriend, her Jewish parents really wanted her to break things off with me and that was one of their plays. "Stay away from him for a while and if it's meant to be then you'll get back together" She bought into it fully, having watched lots of romance movies. Having some distance...

Haven't watched basketball in a while. I've always been a San Antonio Spurs guy, mainly Tim Duncan era. Wasn't crazy about Kawhi Leonard, but the NBA gave him the big push for a while. Last time I really tuned in was probably 7 years or so ago. Long story short... Kahwi is a Clipper now? And...

I assume that you can't rent out a leased car, right? Perhaps financed? Or do you have to own the car outright? I've got a 2025 Tesla Model 3 that's pretty damn sick and would probably fetch a pretty solid daily rate to rent out. Wouldn't mind doing that for one or two weekends a month to cover...

DS2 is metal as fuck. The story is good, the world is full of atmosphere, it is WAY prettier than DS1. It also introduces a lot of the mechanics that ER used later to great effect. I'd say it's the worst of the 3 (4 if we're including Demon, though I'd be more likely to group Demon with...

I find DS1 to be the easiest out of all of them. Four Kings and Bed of Chaos are the only parts I really have trouble with. Ornstein and Smough are super-overrated; they have very little HP. I had way way way more trouble with DS3. Matter of fact DS3 is the only one of the seven Fromsoft...

After that is SoD, which is also a really really good expansion across the board, regardless of guild strength. Both SoF and SoD have really compelling content for everyone. TSS through SoF is a must-play era for any EQ fan at least once and sticking around for SoD is a great bonus. Especially...

Huh, I thought it was a new show, because I've never ever heard of it before.

I think Dual Sellsword is what I ended up with later on in Souls 3. One of those "how is it this good" noob/early weapons, like the Bandit Curved Sword (can't remember what it was called, the rusty-looking curved swords with a ton of bleed buildup) in Elden Ring. Get two of those, put Blood...

Reddit isn't even worth posting on. I think probably 50% of the few things I posted in there were gone by the following morning for violating some "rule". And some of the time the rules don't even make much sense, or even contradict each other. Be fully on topic! But not only on topic...

So this looks freaking incredible. Probably a good thing to test with the Pro, right? Does this do anything new for someone who's been around the block with MMOs?

Friend sent me steelbooks of both seasons of Black Lagoon, said I would like it. I have no idea what I'm getting into here. The hot woman rocking twin guns is promising though. I'm always telling him how much I like Cowboy Bebop, so I assume this is similar. Not gonna look it up cause spoilers...

Looks like it yep. He starts with a hand axe, uses that until he gets a club (Reinforced Club, I think), uses that until he reaches the blacksmith, then uses this hammer for the rest. He also had the blacksmith turn the club into a Divine version real quick, and switched to it whenever he had...

Wow. I actually DID replay a bunch of them after I posted this. Definitely did the Dark Souls trilogy, not sure if I also did Demon or Bloodborne. The Berserk references get absolutely insane in Dark Souls 3. I think that a significant fraction of that game was just Berserk referencing.

He uses this for the last 75% or so of the run and it seems absurdly powerful. Chunks everything even at SL1. He has the low health attack buff on most of the time, maybe that's the reason for all the damage. Why go through almost all of the game as an ugly-ass rotted husk, though? If you're...

Pretty much solved all of this

South Dakota? I'll look into it.

I have a Big CRPG Update soon so it's just as well that someone bumped this. Just dealing with the latest life crisis and once that is resolved, big update incoming.

Basically solved this

$80 to play something you can get for $30 new on PS5 and have it run probably significantly better. While I too am on the "fuck Nintendo" train, I have a bunch of things I want to play on their Switch Online Expansion Pass (I completely missed the N64 era and most of the GBA era, plus there are...

How do you get tonfa to trivialize everything? I want to trivialize everything. Got to the big boss with a fire head and an ice head, got absolutely clobbered. Went and grinded ten or so levels to get some tonfa practice (went from about level 8 to about level 18) which didn't take long at all...

This one isn't actually symmetrical. Viewed from above, it looks like this It's still a weird one given how triangular it is. There are a number of similar triangles or pyramid-like shapes in the Amazon. Supposedly the Atlantean civilization spanned both Amazonnes and North Africa / Spain...

That's right, I remember now. I got a sound bar / surround sound system back when I bought the TV, and it used that. Ended up not keeping it because the TV's innate sound system is plenty for me, I'm not much of a sound connoisseur. Liking the Pro so far, the games it improves to a great degree...

Actually, probably more like 3 hours a week, not as far in Nioh 2 as I thought. I'm near the end of the third main "world". No plans to do anything with the DLC. Got some nice bonuses at the beginning of Nioh 3, probably because I played the demo? Ice armor, lightning armor, and another one...

Said it before, but culturally at this moment, "drunks being all drunk" isn't cool or appealing anymore. Substance abuse stopped being "cool" when overdose deaths and everything else went through the roof in the early 2020s. Young people care about health more than they used to, and a...

Anyone ever play "I Am Setsuna"? I never did because it was always $40 on the PS Store which is too much to throw out on a relative unknown, think it's 20 now though. Digital-only back then, maybe it's physical now. In any case, I heard from a couple people that it was a great modern Chrono...
