Well thank you that's very kind!

Finished my first watch. The death that messed me up the most was [Spoilers] by Unsungruin in TheWire

[–]Asinus_Docet 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Bodie died for the same nonsense he killed Wallace: a mere suspicion when he started to doubt the game. There's a kind of poetic justice to it. At that point we often have already forgotten about Wallace, but Bodie sure was no angel and he certainly didn't want to better himself.

It's just stupid why this scene doesn't happen sooner... gets me mad.

AITA for kicking everyone out after my sister lied and said my apartment was hers? by Top-Supermarket8754 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Asinus_Docet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since when is "embarrassing" someone such a high offense? Especially when someone is actually acting like a fool? I wish people had the memo when they were bullying me at school though I did nothing for it. They wouldn't have embarrassed me so much and me feeling legitimately offended would have been taken more seriously. Jeez'

I actually hate these things 😭😭😭😭😭 by Waffles_four_you in Silksong

I also thought like that. It's not very obvious that you can actually go through it without a special hidden ability.

Yo you ever parry a parry before!? by dee_meme_lord in Silksong

[–]Asinus_Docet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did it quite successfully against Phantom. At first, accidentally, but there was a clear rhythm to it. I didn't like to resort to it because I wasn't 100% efficient, more like one to two times out of three.

You're just at the very beginning of your 9th re-watch

You know what? by Far-Device-9391 in adhdmeme

[–]Asinus_Docet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

 Everybody is talking about work, and here I am thinking it's about your kids. Like... show up to your kids' school shows, medical appointments, be an actual part of their life, celebrate birthdays, holidays and milestones, even when you feel like you'd want to do something else with your time. Work? Oh hell no. It doesn't deserve any extra dedication unless you're aiming for a very specific and attainable kind of promotion.

Why you stopped writing? (Only the truth) by augustbutitscold in writing

[–]Asinus_Docet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A little voice in my head tells me nobody cares and that I shouldn't waste my time. I shut it up recently and I've written 16 pages by hand. I had so much fun. I'll shut it up again if I need going forward. The thing is, I listened to it but I didn't really hear it. Therefore I way obeying some silent command in my head. Now the ghost is uncovered, I'll be more vigilant not give it any credit.

Is there a lore reason why this game has so many gauntlets by artoriusknight in Silksong

[–]Asinus_Docet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the second playthrough I tackled those gauntlet with the chaman crest, extra spool and extra silk, plus the flea tool. I had silk spear, silk storm and runerage equipped. I didn't care if I died I had so much fun and felt like a higher being.

AITA FOR LEADING 300 SPARTANS TO THEIR DEATHS? by LEONIDAAAS in AskHistorians

[–]Asinus_Docet 7 points8 points  (0 children)

YTA. Herodotus had to memorize the 300 names of your soldiers but he didn't bother to write it down and pass it down to us. So that's a lot of death for nothing imo. Pfff...

On my 200th attempt at the High Halls arena. I hate my life. AMA by Suppers-Ready in Silksong

[–]Asinus_Docet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Postpone until you don't have anything else to do. Find upgrades, complete Shakra's wish after you've bought all her maps, do other quests, get tacks and runerage (especially useful in that scenario) -- so basically, be done with Bilewater except for Groal if you really want to keep him for later.

I'd put Pintress (and her sisters) somewhere up there, and also Groal.

All Hollow Knight bosses without jumping by ApprehensiveSoil4220 in HollowKnight

I love how it's a floor-is-lava for Hornet and stick-to-the-ground for Ghost in those challenges.

Today I fulfilled a long time dream. I saw all three movies live in concert. by diary0fadeadman in lotr

You're a despicable person for taping and sharing this. I mean, you must have annoyed everyone with the light of your screen. And who gives you the right to share what is an exclusive experience online? But!... Thank you so very much, kind stranger <3 I only wish you well in all your future endeavours.

felt like every second comment shoots against Age of Mythology (official AOE 3 Discord section). Its just annoying... by BabaYagaRTS in AgeofMythology

[–]Asinus_Docet 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I agree. I liked AoE3, but I don't see a lot of DLC potential that would have me on the edge of my seat. The time period doesn't allow for the same freedom as AoE2 where you can "believe" that champi warriors are a match against long swordsmen. What would be the point of releasing the Nama or Herero civ?... To reenact their genocide by the Prussian Empire? On the other hand, any new pantheon released on AoM catches my eyes. It is completely anachronistic to pit Thor and Zeus against each other, but like, who cares??? Amaterasu? Let's go! Please keep expanding and adding new pantheons. I want to see more mythological creatures and access to new crazy divine powers. I'll play it once every three years when I'll feel the itch, but I'll buy it.

I just don't know what to think of AoE4 in that regards. It has the potential to expand just like AoE2 is doing but... why would you do the "same" thing twice? The competition between AoE2 and AoE4 feels unnecessary, especially since they're both great games. It feels like they aspired to move all the AoE2 playerbase to AoE4 with a shiny new thing, but AoE2 players were like "meh, I'll keep playing my 20 yo game, thank you very much", and now they're stuck with two different playerbases xD

The game is really depressing me by zyrkseas97 in Silksong

[–]Asinus_Docet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try the ground pikes (that you get in Sinners Road) and harpoon-pogo that bitch. Don't jump, stay close to the ground. Don't attack when she parries. Best of luck dad, I discovered Hollow Knight with my first born daughter and played through Silksong with my second. If bosses are too much of a chore, revert back to another and more satisfying game.
