    Someone tell Travis Scott and his hardcore belt replica that he doesn't need to do Undertaker length entrances in the middle of a world title match. Company acting like this 120 pound rapper is some sort of Mike Tyson level threat. Fucking stupid.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Yeah I should probably start using other armor besides just the dress. There are some minimally-intrusive equipments like the circlet, Zamor Legwraps, those blue bracers from the Snowfield. 5 Poise is pretty awful. Not using a shield anymore either, just rolling and slashing like it's...

    Yeah, I'll just grind at that first hill en route to Mohgwyn Palace with Taker's Flames. Haven't really grinded at all in this playthrough which was one of my goals, but I need like another 50 levels before the endgame so I pretty much have to do at least some grinding. I didn't spend much...

    Oh, Bayle is one of those special weapon fights? No wonder I got crushed by him so badly. All I remember is doing chip damage, and getting murdered in the doorway if I tried to summon a mimic or anything. How important is Arcane to a bleed build? Switching over from Str GSes to Blood BCSes...

    Bandit Curved Sword looks pretty solid for Blood weapons. I think I ran something similar to this in Dark Souls 3. Getting a little tired of the big slow Heavy Great Stars and leaning more towards something like this now (too bad I burned most of my mats on the double GSes getting them to +21...

    Anyone know if the War-Dead Catacombs AFK EXP method still works? Supposedly you can stand there and just get AFK EXP from the enemies fighting each other, reviving, etc, for a couple hours and then have to reset it. It doesn't seem to work for me (I run down and trigger the first room of mobs...

    lol RIP How would Lures do against a massive level disparity? A 20 level difference seems like it'd lock out even super low-resist nukes. Necro Lifetaps, IIRC, weren't affected by level gaps once upon a time. Don't know if Lures are on the same system, or if Lifetaps even still function the...

    Ancient Civilizations

    Can't believe I'm linking a Mr Beast video, but it's actually good. Seems clear to me, and he mentions this, that the Great Pyramids pre-date the Egyptian tomb-pyramids and were made much earlier by a much more advanced civilization. The 12,000 years ago Thoth the Atlantean group before the...

    Black Mirror

    Bete Noire actually was really good. I think I might dub that one the best of the season. Dealing with the Mandela Effect by having one person be altering things was an inspired choice and it did get chilling. Wasn't crazy about how simplistic it ended up being towards the end but I guess it had...

    Drugs to steer clear of

    Not seeing doc on the 17th after all, I seem to have possibly kicked this on my own. Once I stopped really trying to force cold turkey quits and just minimized it (i.e. only taking a little bit every once in a while and distracting myself with other things) it seemed to get easier on its own to...

    "I don't torrent stuff" "a literal monkey could torrent stuff" It isn't about not knowing how to do it, 'tard. As someone who did martial arts for 12 years, it's possible for a lightweight person to beat a heavyweight person if they can lock on a submission and the larger person isn't able...

    There's an "MP on kill" talisman? Goddamn! I tried Gransax and Blasphemous out and both seem to have super-OP L2 moves, but I run out of MP very quickly. An MP on kill talisman would probably fix that (at least on regular foes), since both kill things fast. Looks to me like Gransax has a longer...

    Tarnished Archaeologist is a freaking awesome youtube channel. Only watched like two of his videos because they're so good that they're actually sort of exhausting, and just make you want to start another playthrough of the game. And yeah, the game does take an archaeology-like approach to its...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    If I were to run a ton of sidequests on Hard mode at chapter 13, would the overworld be shared with my Normal mode playthrough? I.e. would I still have X amount of the map finished if I switched back and forth between them? And would I have to beat the chapter to go back to Normal mode?

    There aren't even any Vaniki achievements on this, are there? RIP. Expecting everyone to do Faceless-style "let's take on this challenge just to show we can" runs, without any sort of actual tangible reward, is going to draw very little of the playerbase. Lowering the AA level from 51 to 50, so...

    Any talisman recommendations for Faith? Probably not going above 25 Faith and mostly only using Faith for buffs. I could do more with it though if I find some spells I want to use. Using a Clawmark Talisman +7 which works fine but also seems basic. Not sure if Incant Scaling (i.e. why I've used...

    Is Sewer Mohg supposed to be the final Mohg? I always figured the underworld Mohg was his canon final stand, since he's atop a fortress in the Underworld. I generally fight that one last. Though the first time I played through the game I think I fought the sewer one last since it was one of the...

    What are you playing?

    Yep, PS4 is another of those "way shorter than you remember it" games. As a kid, I remember it like there were DAYS between being crushed by Zio and ultimately getting payback against him. Was a huge deal to me. When I replayed the game a decade or so ago, I was getting revenge on Zio like 3...

    What are you playing?

    Not at all. Phantasy Star 4 is waaaaay above the other three and doesn't follow any of them directly storywise outside of the villain being the same throughout. Phantasy Star 1 - Play if you really like retro 8-bit RPGs, retro aesthetics, retro QOL. Came out during the time of Final Fantasy 1...

    My new thing is Chili Crisp Oil. Pretty much the best thing ever. One can buy it in stores easily enough (name brands can be around $12, store brands might be like $4 and be essentially the same), or make it yourself. This video shows a good methodology for making it yourself: Also worth...

    Rather spend $10 than dick around on any illegal websites or whatever. I don't torrent stuff either. Spending $20 on the other hand kinda pisses me off and that's what I'll need to do here. For a show that I'm mostly watching out of curiosity and expect to probably be irritated by fairly quickly.

    Alright, so my plan for this plat is: 1. Get everyone to level 70 (they're like 40-45 now) 2. Do all the open world sidequests and side-objectives to finish the individual zones 3. Get Genji Gloves and Gotterdammerung 4. Run through the MSQ again on Hard Mode 5. Do any miscellaneous weird stuff...

    Last thing I did this weekend was beat Godfrey, gold spirit version. Why do you fight Godfrey twice like that? Almost as weird as fighting Mohg twice. Wondering if maybe the golden Godfrey fight was supposed to be a Godwyn the Golden fight, but it wasn't finished, so they just added the gold...

    Yarp, the bellyaching on Vaniki was pretty exhausting. We were gearing up Thraka to tank shit and a lot of folks didn't seem to understand that this was the difference between actually getting kills or not. Best thing to do is be upfront right off the bat with people that "nobody is getting...

    A good SK with bardspeed and Luclin instas (and of course, ample room) could pull off an AOW kite. I could pull of an AOW kite and I'm only a mediocre SK. Warrior would have an easier time not going splat, but holding aggro would be lol. You're right about there being no COTH at 50 though...

    IDK I never got into Horizon. Which is unfortunate cause I got the first one for free back in 2017 and it looks pretty damn good for PS4, probably in that Ghost of Tsushima tier visually.

    Yeah that's why I'm wondering if Blessing's Boon is worth using, it's extra buffing time. Looks like it's only a defensive buff so I probably won't actually use it.

    Golden Vow seems to be worth using with either build. What about Flame Grant Me Strength, does that stack with GV? I imagine it's really good with Blasphemous since it doubles up with the fire boost. If they stack, I can do GV + FGMS and do jumping powerstance attacks with the two Great Stars...
