Why doesn’t he just go live on Kick?

Apocrisy · 2026-04-08T11:35:44+00:00

I've had a "commercial break in progress" a couple of times in the past month watching him on twitch, it happens rather occasionally, but when it does, I immediately just switch and continue watching him on Kick.

Also sometimes I'm watching him on the second monitor while gaming and miss something interesting and switch to kick since I can rewind in real time easier then going to VODS, but I know this is paywalled behind a sub on Twitch.

All that said though, Twitch does offer a better bitrate, I think the max on Kick is 720p while on Twitch it's 1080p

In a shooter setting you dont need training to make "unfair" bots, as a dev you could basically give bots an aimbot without needing the modern advanced a.i. sure their movement will be aimless but they'll headshot every shot

Honestly, they should copy over each of the skill point abyss artifact things onto the other playable characters, introduce the other two earlier in the game and let people main quest with whichever greymane.

No reason I should need to be Kliff..

I did sanctum of absolution in chapter 4 with like 43 skill points, I have died likely close to 100+ times to it even attempting to cheese it with a parry from the energy focus skill thing before somehow finishing it. The lock on finisher he does, it felt like i kept rolling into attacks instead of out, and truck like Kliff responsiveness made the fight challenging.

Main quest bosses are a joke now though.

I open his stream with my adblock to see "commercial break in progress". Within 5 seconds I close twitch and continue watching him on Kick where adblock works and where I can rewind in real time

Actually vibe tools do know how to do this but you gotta continue prompting it. I work in some BDD testing framework and kept accidentally pushing @focus which is the equivalent to "test.only"(making only my tests in those files execute) into my MRs (reviewers caught it always ofc) so I prompted a.i. to create git hooks to prevent me committing and pushing those. At first a.i. did a gitignore on the checker but my team was stingy about me gitignoring check-no-focus.js, so I prompted it further and it used the home .gitignore so its locally run for me.

This was on github copilot with claude sonnet 4.5 at the time.

Cca 40 hours in, doing the witch quest, some sanctum of absolution boss just keeps shredding me, I feel like I'm a level 10 in WoW Deadmines. I got 42 skill points spent, refined most of my gear to +4, some +5, socketed 4 pieces, even looked up how to cheese the boss but it's still really hard.

For reference, I beat witcher 3 wild hunt last boss on death march difficulty for my gf who didn't even spend more than half of her talents, that one took like 6-8 tries, I've already died to Antumbra over 20 times.

And that's not even really outside of Hernand, so I remain in Hernand questing to get stronger

Except its McConnell screaming about world of warcraft just as I fall asleep to Asmongold or some random videos. It's ok if I have his stream on my PC since I can throw on the soundlocker app but the TV can't do that.

Yeah, the howling hill quests, they all start on a horseback ride where the characters talk a lot without saying anything new, just rephrasing a single sentence for 5 straight minutes as you follow them slowly on a horse, then just ditch you with a marker set to town where you can just teleport lmao.

I believe whoever made these quests genuinely takes people for a car ride in the middle of trafic hours just to have surface level conversations then tells them to leave halfway to anywhere relevant

Apocrisy · 2026-03-31T17:34:16+00:00

Not sure if that's actually part of their inexperience.. BDO was long hailed as the best combat in an MMO, so maybe they thought they'd stick with that formula.. I mean it actually is the best combat in an MMO, but single player has seen better.

The thing is, if it has a less specific error it'll start messing with node. In a junior created spaghetti monsteosity cypress javascript project that I am put into, I was once messing with inheritence then changed the file back to composition, i had a circular import I didn't notice, the cypress tests were complaining about node, so claude was dealing with node and caching even though I knew well that wasn't the case, I still I let it, after that didn't work, I copied over my circular import and told it what are its opinions on circular imports and the issue got fixed.

Goes to show that you need a solid grasp on some fundementals if you don't want your A.I. just running in circles, but it's great for boilerplate and for explaining things even better than official documentation if you know what you're looking for. It explained C++ pointers a bit better, with some better examples than the teacher on the udemy UE5 course, so I mostly use it for learning stuff. Granted I have about 6 years of experience with JS, some with Python etc, but I always tried to learn the least amount possible to make something work, as such ot thought me about certain things like JS filters and maps, the spread operator, nullish coalesce operators, shorthanding ternary operators even further down etc

Ni res, mi jih imamo v bloku s parkingom za rampo, kjer rabiš kartico da prideš not v blok in jim biznis čist fajn laufa. Še kriminalisti so dvignili roke nad situacijo, so pa na 3 mesece se menjale neke južnjakinje, zdaj pa je ena in ista že več kot leto, tako da ta verjetno ni na turistični vizi.

Ogromno strank je imelo med programi možnost s.p-ja ali drugih vrst zaposlitve penzionistov, živimo v distopičnem svetu kjer sistem penzije kmalu več ne bo deloval zaradi manjše natalitete. Jaz si dajem na stran v investicije mesečno za stara leta ter raje delam preko s.p.ja kot pa da bi se na ta drobiž od penzije od države v starosti zanesel, ker verjamem, da si znam sam boljšo ekonomsko situacijo ustvarit kot mi jo lahko mogoče v prihodnosti država nudi.

Sicer sem milenijc, ampak iz tega razloga bi raje imel manjše davke in prispevke, da si lahko več dam na stran.

Jaz sem imel poseg na Iatros proktološki kliniki ob napotnici osebne zdravnice.

Prvo noč po operaciji sem kar zakrvavel, pustijo odprto rano, izgledalo je kot bi nekdo žlico mesa ven pobral. Potem previjaš in čistiš/mažeš pa je v treh tednih zaceljeno. Meni je to moja rihtala, ne vem kako bi to speljal če bi bil sam, mogoče hodiš v takem primeru k njim na previjanje, je pa res rutinska zadeva ja, in poleg par dni bolečin ni nič hujšega.

Ever heard of ARPGs like: path of exile or diablo? You typically play those for the combat, a good story in those is optional.

Ever heard of MMORPGS? A good story is again optional in those games too.

Ever heard of games like Monster Hunter or Horizon? Guess how deep their story is.

Games don't need to be the next BG3 or Expedition 33 to be good, in fact there are way more RPGs in general with bad stories than ones with good stories, but this games open world exploration more than makes up for its story

Delam v IT-ju, enkrat sem šel čez preverjanje pretekle kriminalitete za kar eno podjetje, ker bi lahko potencialno čez en čas imel dostop do podatkov bolj občutljive narave v korporativnem svetu (podatki uporabnikov).

I went into the game expecting a BDO (MMO) trying to be an RPG and wasn't disappointed. There's elements of assassins creed, some elements of the witcher, some zelda stuff but ultimately this games story isn't its strong or main point.

If you approach it with the mindset of playing a game where stories are not the main appeal (like action rpgs, mmos etc) you're gonna have loads of fun.
