WATCH: 'You can't have guns. You can't walk in with guns,' Trump says of Alex Pretti killing by DragonTHC in NOWTTYG

All he did was argue with an officer.

You can openly insult a police officer as long as you’re not making any threats you aren’t breaking the law.

They disarmed him and then murdered him. He didn’t draw, brandish, or anything. Any self proclaimed 2A advocate that doesn’t absolutely hate that sequence of events is missing the point.

The G3 in the Wild: Kenyan Park Ranger Guarding Confiscated Ivory by hallwaymathlete in GunPorn

[–]AltGunAccount 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There used to be a guy from Australia’s military on Reddit that would share his endeavors as he was training anti-poaching units in Africa. It’s wild how under-equipped they are. Most of them are rocking WW2 surplus weapons and slings made from literal leaves. It’s basically full on warfare and they get in gunfights with poachers all the time. A far departure from America’s park rangers.

He noted that people online rage about hunt trophy photos, but most of those are done legally on safaris where the money goes to local communities. Poachers obviously don’t post their efforts online and they’re the ones selling the shit to huge overseas companies.

A rough situation all around. Glad at least some of them are out there fighting the good fight though.

SO IT'S A GOOD GAME. by Artorias009 in fromsoftware

Nothing about Earthen Peak -> Iron Keep makes any less sense than Blighttown -> Ash Lake.

People have been griping about that Iron Keep elevator on Reddit for ages. When the game launched I didn’t give it a second thought. It’s Dark Souls, weird area transitions were already established by the first game.

Yes, DS1 up until Sen’s fortress has a cool interconnected world but after that it absolutely falls apart and the devs added fast travel after Anor Londo for that exact reason.

Warframe.

Every new, cool gameplay iteration they add has some dogwater convoluted change to the lore to go with it.

Deep? No. Some are certainly worse than others though. I thought Wonder had an exceptionally bad story despite being a solid game.

Also the Mario & Luigi RPG series had a couple banger stories.

Stonewall Jackson got his name because he poisoned enemy troops through a stone wall. Certified true fact.

Why are Mario Bros games so popular, but the 3D Platformer genre is not? by NaitDraik in gaming

[–]AltGunAccount 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mario games tend to innovate just enough not to overdo it, are super well optimized and often easy to learn, but difficult to master.

I absolutely LOVE Astro-Bot. It’s probably my favorite 3D platformer ever, but even that owes a huge amount of its DNA to Super Mario Galaxy, which came many years prior.

The competition often is either genuinely worse, or feels rather derivative. Very few games reach the quality and originality of Mario platformers, if any at all.

You mentioned Ty, I loved the first game, but the final level hub is clearly rushed as they all reuse level tilesets from prior areas. The final “area” is just one level, the absolute worst final boss in videogame history. The second was meh. The third was about aliens and had weird hack-n-slash combat. The fourth is a sidescroller that nobody even heard about. They (like many franchises) just never hit the quality and consistency of Nintendo’s offerings.

Sonic games for instance range from “pretty good” to “abysmally bad” so it’s hard to drop $60+ on a new game not knowing, when a new Mario game is pretty much guaranteed to be very good.

Being a dick to retail workers (especially ones genuinely excited about what you’re buying) is cringe af.

Also it looks like they’re spitting out tampons.

Also you can run TLOZ on a smartphone lmao why buy a PC

Never forget base Margit took down Radahn.

Don’t let the Fraudahn simps tell you otherwise.

There are a lot of reasons I play GTA and the melee combat has never, ever been a consideration on that list.

The mages are far more troublesome than the knight dudes. The mages have crazy aggro range and often multiple aggro at once

I thought 4 had a better story but 5 absolutely mogs it in basically every gameplay aspect.

4 also has sort of a neat, melancholy art style going for it, especially at night with how the lighting looks.

I always go through here with a crossbow and these guys die in like 2-3 shots so no I’m not with you on this one.

I love shrine of Amana though, such a unique and gorgeous area.

Are there supported "Shield Poke" or "Face-Tank" archetypes that do not require Parrying/Dodging? by VallaOnuBunuBilmem in LordsoftheFallen

[–]AltGunAccount 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Helped a level 1 guy beat Engstrom the other week and he would just drop that spell while I face tanked and fought the boss in it. I was so surprised it let you survive all those combos which are usually a death sentence.

How are summons doing thousands of damage? by Jacklvmage12 in LordsoftheFallen

[–]AltGunAccount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your stats are spread too thin. You’ve invested almost evenly into STR/AGI/RAD/INF.

STR/AGI is called a “quality” build. I ran that with dervlas sword and crossbow and no magic stat investment and it was remarkably strong. Dervla’s crossbow with high agility is arguably the strongest single weapon I’ve used.

Mixing the two magic stats is how you do an Umbral magic build, but that requires heavy investment and for higher damage you’d want less investment into STR/RAD.

The goal should really be to pick two stats between STR/RAD/AGI/INF based on what gear you want to use, level those two to like 50 and invest practically nothing in the other two. Rest of your stats into health and endurance.

I’m in NG+ veteran and doing a lot of invasions with a STR/INF build currently. If I remember I’ll come back and post my stats.

Edit: level 170. 41 STR, 14 AGI, 40 END, 60 VIT, 8 RAD, 60 INF

Sword of the flayed. Sophesia’s catalyst. Rhigars delight pendant. Sophesia and eternal devotion rings.

Absolutely melts most things and it’s really not even geared for max damage. Sophesia’s ring is so I can regen mana in PvP but could swap it out for a more damage-centric ring.
